I have sent out this order to rally the troops, for some of you have begun wavering in your dedication to the battle, having already grown tired of the fight.
It is the teetering back and forth between two realms which causes believers to falter, as none can solidly stand in faith when they still have one foot in the world. And so those found in this position will, more often than not, eventually find both of their feet back where they came from, because not having apprehended their flesh, the enticement of sin with its strong pull becomes more than they can resist.
It’s not the number of warriors in the battle that turns the war, but it’s about those who fight in alignment with the Father’s will. For those who remain positioned correctly shall bring the most successful warfare down upon the enemy’s head.
This sitting President would appear to be between a rock and a hard place, as it seems his opposition has boxed him in, where he is faced with attacks on all sides; for no matter what he does or says, those who are his critics point the finger of blame at him.
Do My children not see that their physical cries of objection are useless against what is happening in their state? Do they not understand that the carnal use of this weapon does not have the power to oppose the rule of this governor and their state assembly?
When I acquire a target, I set its heart in My sights. Then I take careful aim, deciding when to pull back My bow and send My “Arrow of Truth” sailing towards this mark. For just like an archer who studies his game, I carefully consider those I see holding value: the ones who would fit splendidly in amongst My chosen, those I cherish as My most prized possessions.
Beloved, I will always challenge My children to go against their natural inclinations; to battle against their flesh and its pull to live a comfortable life.
For this is the way of man: to live out his days in pursuit of what makes him happy at the moment. Because the heart of mankind is fickle, he is prone to change his mind on a whim, as his flesh is always crying out to be satisfied. Yet what it takes to subdue this voice is always shifting, leading many to embark on a “chase” to find the one thing that will silence its urgings.
Draw near to Me for I am the true vine, the place of authentic connection where your soul becomes intertwined in a deeper experience of My love.
Each of My chosen has been given the ability to commune with Me, opened when they accepted My invitation to be grafted into My line, as the way of continual access to the dwelling place where We reside – Father, Son, and Spirit. This is always available, for We are carried inside you. So then, wherever you roam, We are literally there too! This is why a conversation between Us can be had at a moment’s notice, regardless of your current circumstances.
Equipped now for battle, prepared for the fight, the warrior stands ready, poised and girded he takes the proper stance, yet heels dug in will profit him nothing if his heart does not lead. The battle must first be fought from the inside, lest in the midst of the struggle his feet take flight.
It is not just intentionality of purpose which finds Me, but it is a heart that stays vigilant: one that is focused upon hearing Me speak. For just as sight looks and then sees, hearing perks up and is able to center in upon a certain sound. Think of your outer ear as it waits to hear the sounds of daily things, anticipating the noises of the morning. Your outer ear already has the expectation of hearing these stirrings, and so is aware and attentive to what is coming.
