As we look at the world around us, it is easy to see the many things that have gone wrong. All too often we focus on the violence that rages out of control, the brokenness that is pervasive throughout the land and the hunger that sends many to bed at night with pangs in their stomachs. We throw up our hands and cry, “Where are you, God?”
These things are realities of the world that we live in and we were not meant to turn a blind eye to them. However, what the LORD is showing me is that many have their eyes fixed on these things while they remain blind to the works of His hands. No matter what trials this world faces, our God REIGNS. He too is working His plan and it ends in VICTORY. We may not see it on the evening news, but then as humans we are naturally drawn to all that is wrong while overlooking or minimizing the right.
So while we may not see it right now, we will. God is raising an army. We will not be armed with bombs, guns or knives. We will be armed with the HOLY SPIRIT. The kind of revolution He has planned impacts the physical and the spiritual realms. He is calling us to take back the ground which the enemy is claiming as his own. He is calling us to make a bold stand.
Now is not the time to cower. Now is not the time to remain silent. Now is the time to speak. Now is the time to proclaim life amidst the death and decay. Now is the time to surrender to our King and His perfect will. We battle not against flesh and blood but against wicked rulers and principalities who have come to kill, steal and destroy. Our LORD, Christ Jesus, has come! He has come so that we may have life and have it to the FULL. He lives in the hearts of the redeemed.
Open your eyes! Open your eyes and see that God is building an army. A spiritual awakening is coming. When it sweeps across this land the line will be drawn. There will be no middle ground. There will be no room for the lukewarm. Some will allow His wave of love to sweep over them. Others will dig in their heels with defiance and the desire to be their own gods. To whom will they call when they are in the pit? Whose name will they cry out when in their world there is no one greater than themselves?
Now is the time and this is the place. This world is in desperate need but our God is MIGHTY to save. Thank you, Jesus! Because of You we are alive and we will live forevermore. Because of You we need not fear, even in the face of a formidable enemy. Because of You we are FREE!

According to Che Ahn in an artice in Charisma News….The Harvest of a Billion Souls is coming. Bob Jones back in 1983 said three things would come before a billion soul harvest.
1. morning-after-pill in USA
2.same sax marriage law
3.Apple Watch – a watch would be invented so Chinese rice labors can listen to worship music.
The last two took place last year.
Smith Wigglesworth prophesied that 110 years after the outpouring of Azuza Street there would come another great revival. April 9, 2016′ will be the 110th anniversary of Azuza Street. Lou Engle and others are digging the wells of revival at the LA Memorial Coliseum on that day.
Awesome words Jon!
Good words Mitch, I have been taking photos whilst feeling that though I am still growing and learning this has been with the help of others who had already steered through the ebb & flow of life. This world and beyond are for all the human race to enjoy, that in itself permeates every heart and hand. Peace.
Encouraging message of Victory. I was also led to write about victory, Victory over Giants, Gog and Magog, and the Passport to the Days of Trumpets http://www.befoundfaithful.com/home.html
Mitch-
Thank you for relaying this encouraging Word from the Lord. Yes, we can feel it, the Lord’s calling to a higher level of obedience as He places us into position.
Mitch, regarding “our calling is not to flee hardship,” he had me move to an epicenter of both good and evil. I said “Lord, you’re sending me into the belly of the beast!” He replied “Right into the gut. A warrior doesn’t run from battle, he runs to it.” On the other hand, in recently reading of God’s selected process of elimination in Judges 7, 22,000 men agreed they were afraid of battle and went home. They didn’t seem to be put to shame. And what qualification is it to lap water like a dog?! I’m not practicing. I think each situation He leads us to will let us experience hand to hand battle so to speak and in others a peace knowing we are not needed at the time.
Thank you Mitch,
The Lord has touched all his children and we are all praying and getting ready for the sign of Our Mighty God’ Victory!
AMEN, Luke!
I have prayed about wither my family and I are to relocate to another country or stay put. We are to stay put and prepare for the souls that will be coming our way to help. Several years ago we had a hailstorm come thru that allowed us to pay off our property. When we got the check my husband and I both knew we were to pay off the mortgage. Our current home does not meet our needs. One bathroom, two teenagers, my husbands elderly parents and my husband and I. It can get to be quite the traffic jam at times. We had checked into building a new home on our property and converting the current residence to a use that better meets our needs for animals and storage but we did not get the go ahead to take on that expense. We had also checked into buying rental property now that we our mortgage free. We were told to wait. Again, we are not to take on additional mortgage expense. We are to prepare for the storm, be ready to batten down hatches, and tend to the physical needs of the people who come or way and minister to their souls.
See my previous reply to understand why our forefathers couldn’t have known to flee in ’13 ’63 or ’73. Back then we were still ‘a golden cup in the Lord’s hand’. We have recently morphed into Babylon. Now we understand, now we must respond according to scripture. Just like one can’t repent until AFTER conviction, none could have known to flee the USA until AFTER it morphed into Babylon.
Thank you for input, Bobbie. The opportunities to minister in this upcoming environment will be numerous.
I believe Jesus’ plea in the Garden of Gethsemane was not concerning the cup He was about to partake of, but rather the one that we are.
The ARMY is already here!
see http://www.thelordschosenworld.org, http://www.chosentv.org
God is truly showing Himself mighty amongst these people. They are called The Lord’s Chosen and they have a special covenant with God. They preach the undiluted word of God that prepares people to make Heaven. God confirms His presence with them with unimaginable miracles, signs and wonders. When they are confronted by any danger they just have to declare that they are Chosen and the situation would bow. Even when they are shot with guns repeatedly, the bullet does not penetrate. If they are involved in accidents, they come out unhurt. Their presence also prevents the people around them from getting into danger. In The Lord’s Chosen, the dead are raised up, the deaf and dumb from birth hear and speak, the blind receive their sight, women without wombs and private part conceive and deliver babies, the lame walk, they decree a thing and it will surely come to pass. There is so much more that God is doing in The Lord’s Chosen but I can’t mention all here. I will just say God brought out The Lord’s Chosen to prove to the world that the GOD of the Christians is very much alive, to wipe away the tears, mockery and reproach of we Christians. God is the same yesterday, today and forever (Hebrews 13:8)
Interestingly, their Visions are:
1.Grassroot Revival all over the world- Mark 16:15
2.Revival of the Apostolic Christian Experiences among the Body of Christ- Acts2:17
3.Revival of Heaven Consciousness in the heart of every believer. (Heaven at Last) – Matthew 6:33
Their mandate is to recover 10 Billion souls for Christ.
If you are still doubt watch their program ‘FROM SORROW TO JOY’ online on February 6 & 7 by 7:00 am GMT at chosentv.org
You got it half right. There will be spiritual warfare … but this isn’t a video game and God didn’t tell anyone in OUR past to “test The Lord Thy God” by not bringing any weapon to a battle. If you jump off a building God won’t stop gravity for you. He gave you a brain to know not to jump. If you don’t have weapons for the physical part of what’s coming … you’ll be of no use to God because you’ll be dead. “My people perish from lack of knowledge.”
I respectfully disagree. I am not going to get into firearms debates here but I am going to tell you that as the LORD gives the word to me I will deliver it. He is not open for my editorial comments. If you have a different view that is your prerogative, “Josey Wales.”
