The roaring of the lions grows louder. The enemy’s emboldened by the fear and confusion he’s been able to stir up around the globe – including within the very camp of God. With this accomplishment, His focus is now shifting towards his real target.
The Saints of God are the target of Satan. The goal of the devil is to muzzle and shut down the Church!
God recently reminded me of the Israelites when they and the Philistines were encamped against each other. The Philistines sent their champion, Goliath, out daily to challenge and defy the armies of Israel. Because of his stature and armor, all the army of Israel from King Saul down were “dismayed and greatly afraid.”
This is happening again within the camp of God, as many are greatly afraid. But just as God prepared David to face the giant, so is He preparing His Remnant to do so the same. David spent many hours alone with God as he tended his sheep. It was during this time the Lord prepared David in advance for what he would be called upon to do. David was strengthened and made secure by faith in the Lord his God. When the time came to fight, he boldly proclaimed to King Saul, “The LORD will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine!”
Saints, the Lord instructed us back in April (see ‘The Lions Are Roaring’) saying, “Gird Yourself!” To gird means: encircle, surround, or to secure. God’s given much instruction as to how we are to gird ourselves, calling upon His people to come into His spiritual Ark (see below).
We only have a short window to prepare for the days ahead. We are ALL called to fight the good fight of faith, and each will face “Goliath” at some point.
When placed within the Body of Christ, we have a particular function, and are given specific assignments. The only way to know your role and receive individual step-by-step instructions is to seek God! You cannot receive this from any other source.
‘Fast and Pray’ was given in April, 2019, and is for NOW! This is a portion of what was shown:
Oh God, help us press to levels beyond our physical strength, to swim through the horrible flaming fires. May we see the grandeur and possibilities that lie just a step further in prayer and fasting.
The Spirit is calling the Church to die to earthly inclinations and human desires. She’s being called to swim into deep waters, the place where victory awaits.
This is the power of the Spirit, the power every believer must have! This is the resurrection to be experienced before the Lord comes, where impartation and strength flow.” (End of Word)
Brethren, now’s the time to draw near to the Lord and seek Him in prayer and fasting as never before. Allow Him to gird you with strength for this battle. Be “patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer.” We must be resolute, firm, and unwavering!
Cry to the Lord, Saints! When His people cry out, it moves God – without fail. Those who know their God will cry out to Him, and He’ll move heaven and earth to come to their rescue! If you want to be greatly encouraged, do a study of how often crying out to the Lord is mentioned in scripture, and notice God’s response.
As we know, judgment begins with the house of God, and He’s telling us to prepare – “Gird Yourself!”
I believe after a time of intensive prayer and fasting “Goliath” will come against the saints (just as the tempter came against Jesus). No matter the form in which he comes, our test will be: Will we stand in faith, clothed in the armor of God? Will we know our identity in Christ Jesus and the victory He’s already won for us? Or will we draw back in fear and trembling?
This period shortly precedes the Remnant being imbued with power from on High. They will then be sent forth into the camp of the enemy, setting many captives free!
Please pray over this message. Saints, it’s time to lay down every weight and run this race with all your might! May God bless every one of you!

Diana Pulliam has been a Christian since the age of 22, but it wasn’t until 2008, while going through an especially trying time, that she asked God what He intended for her life. She told Him she wanted her life to give Him glory, but didn’t see how it was making any difference at all for His kingdom. She asked Him to not hold anything back, she wanted everything He intended for her, and was willing to do whatever He told her to do.
Two weeks later, during her quiet time with the Lord, she heard the Holy Spirit say, “Clean your house and write.” The last few years, He has given her dreams and visions about the times in which we live. In 2011, she started the blog The Mighty Hand of God as a place to write whatever the Lord inspires.

Diana Your words from the Holy Spirit always ring TRUE for me… another strong believer who I know who has been warning since he wrote his very first book The Day Of The Lord is at Hand has gone to his prayer closet.. Fasts regularly and told me Keep In Prayer- fasting This is it! ..time is short.. seek the Father while we still have time.. PREPARATION IS THE KEY.. TO BEING ENDUED WITH POWER FROM ON HIGH.. TOLD ME ALL OF BOOK OF JOEL CHAPTERS 1-3 ARE INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE LAST DAYS AS WELL.
Call a solumn assembly ,sanctify a fast etc/ Blessings to you all and thank you for this very important post.
Yes, we are fasting and praying. I’m not crazy about fasting but read something the other day that encouraged me. When Jesus was led into the wilderness, he was full of the Holy Spirit. When he came out of the wilderness after fasting for 40 days and nights, he was full of the POWER of the Holy Spirit. So along with all the benefits of fasting we find in Isaiah 58, we are anointed with the very power of God. Hallelujah! We’re going to need it! Blessings. Love your posts, Diane!
I am in full agreement Diana! Fasting and praying, crying, weeping and travailing before the Father! Your words have quickened my spirit for this past 2 weeks I have been saying the Scripture and making it personal for me :
Joshua 1:9 You have commanded me to be strong and courageous. I will not fear, I will not be dismayed, for You are the LORD my God, and You will be with me wherever I go.
The Lord has been working on my trust and fear. Let us all remember He is our mighty God and we have NOTHING to fear because He is powerful and on our side! Praise the Lord Jesus!
blessings
This is a great word. I need to start my life of fasting and prayer instead of just talking about it.
I feel prompted that today is the acceptable day to start. Now! I have lost too much time already.
I was told by the Lord back in 2017, “You must take dominion over your mind, your will, and your emotions!” Fasting is one of the best ways to weaken the flesh to do just that – allow your Spirit to take dominion. Blessings!
STAND FAST. TAKE ACTION. MARANATHA!!!!!
Joel chapter 1
The day of the Lord is near,
the day when destruction comes from the Almighty.
How terrible that day will be!
16 Our food disappears before our very eyes.
No joyful celebrations are held in the house of our God.
We are seeing our food disappear and most churches are closed. These verses are happening now.
Greetings Diana! It’s always good to hear what the Holy Spirit is speaking to you. It seems to always agree with what the Holy Spirit is speaking to me and even if it is a challenging word that in itself is encouraging. I had a dream a few months ago that I believe coincides with what you shared here as well as your most recent one about blood in the streets. The Holy Spirit frequently says to me that what we are experiencing now is the calm before the storm. In the dream I walked into what seemed like a diner that would be in a small town. When I walked into the diner I looked up on the wall and saw single, double and triple. I immediately thought of Wendy’s although I was’nt in a Wendy’s. I said to myself I don’t want that when I read it. I then looked behind the counter and saw what looked like a small loaf of bread with chocolate on it. I proceeded to order a donut and coffee and sat at a table. That was the end of the dream. Since having the dream this is what I’ve been shown so far. The single, double and triple are events stacked on top of each other just like Wendy’s hamburgers. What we are experiencing now is the single. The double will begin late summer/ fall and will be an escalation followed by the triple in late fall/winter. I was also given a theme that I don’t full y understand but I’m frequently reminded of. Seeing single, double triple in a small diner made me think of Wendy’s. That was the familiar in an unfamiliar place. The donut I ordered that looked more like a small loaf of bread with chocolate was the… Read more »
Very interesting dream Michael. The explanation of the single, double, triple makes complete sense to me given we are in the birth pains & things will worsen dramatically as we move closer to the start of the Tribulation.
I wonder if the familiar being unfamiliar represents our reality. I see what used to be the U.S. way of life & it is now unfamiliar. Most striking to me is the loss of freedoms & rights since the Coronavirus was acknowledged in the U.S. I see a change in my life in another country as well but the changes seem less in scope.
I think of the charges being brought by the St. Louis Circuit Attorney (Kim Gardner) against the St. Louis couple defending their home from the protesters that knocked down a gate & were trespassing, the hate & violence directed towards the police, the physical assault some people are using against non-mask wearers, the destruction of historical statues, etc. It is heartbreaking to see the division & the loss of the “American life” from times that those of us with 4+ decades under our belt remember with great fondness. 😢. Just a thought.
Excellent article Diana! Thank you. It is a message/word that I needed to hear in this moment. 😘
Amen!
“A solemn september assembly” a prophetic dream rencently given to Dana coverstone, a pastor from Kentucky. This dream follows the other dreams he had been given in December 2019 and the dream he was given in June of this year. Check them out, confirmation.
This is the link to Pastor Coverstone’s solemn call to prayer for the ENTIRE CHURCH, seen in the dream as being urgent for the entire month of September. In the dream, as he was telling people that more needed to join in prayer, and they did, God repeatedly told him that he needs more, more, more! Even so we need to be on this already! This came after the prophetic warning dream that was posted here and elsewhere.

Father, a direct appeal to you. Please send your Son to earth today and in the clouds remove the people who believe in Jesus; first the dead then the living. I pray in your Son’s name…Amen.
Agree with your longing John–PS 91 v7-A thousand may fall at your side and 10,000 at your
right hand –Imagine how full the nets will become of souls coming to our Lord .
This is the Best of times , in the worst of days ! HIS timing is perfect-yet I’m with you
and say Come Lord Jesus. But give me the pleasure of dragging in WET nets for my King !
Review Daniel 8:21-26. I interpret nationality of AC Greek. As mentioned on this web page a new entity has appeared…United Allied States (UAS) possibly the NWO. UAS chooses a leader next week on Tisha B’Av (July 30). A certain Greek politician currently active born on Tisha B’Av waits off stage. Let’s see if UAS annoints him leader and he steps up on the world stage podium.
The Greek empire covered a large territory that extended far beyond modern Greece. It was divided into four kingdoms, one of which includes the area that was formerly the Assyrian empire, which is important because the scriptures identify the antichrist as the Assyrian. However, it does not say he must be born in that area, but would indicate he will rise to power there. The late JR Church studied Obama’s ancestry in the New England Geneological Society, which is one of the oldest in the US, and found through his mother’s side, he is a Jewish descendant of the tribe of Dan, which rebelled against God and rejected the land assigned to them within Israel and settled in the city of Dan, located near the base of Mount Hermon, which is on the border of Syria and Lebanon. And God has revealed to me and others that he will be given another assignment after completing his assignment here, which is the destruction of the United States. I believe his next assignment will include his rise to power in the region of the Assyrian empire. There are several scriptures confirming the antichrist comes from the tribe of Dan.
“I am come in my Father’s name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.” -Jesus, John 5:43
“I declare in my name, my honor and my conscience to obey the Constitution and the laws.” -Alexis Tsipras, Greek Prime Minister
Coming in one’s own name is the way of the whole world going all the way back to Babylon and the tower of Babel where they sought to make their own names great. On that basis, billions of people would qualify to be called antichrist.
And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.” (Genesis 11:4 NKJV)
I provided lots of valuable evidence in my previous reply that was not even acknowledged or received so it appears I’m wasting my time with this discussion. Hopefully someone else finds it helpful.
Thanks for the info James! I had no idea that Obama is a descendant of the tribe of Dan! Wow. I am beginning to see the other pieces that are coming together. But seriously, I find him so repulsive and can’t stand to look at him or listen to him. I shared with an older sister in Christ about that and told her that I thought that the ac would be so handsome, charming, and be so charismatic but I found it just not so with Obama. She said it was because of the Holy Spirit in us and we see the truth. So, I slowly accepting that maybe he is the ac…….if he is it, we must prepare ourselves spiritually!
All of the historical empires may exist still today, but they are all hollowed out shells of what once they once were. Whether its ancient or Neo Babel/Babylon (iraq), Egypt, Assyria/Iran, Greece, Rome, etc. All a mere shadow of their former ancient glory. None are considered superpowera today. Not even close
But the satanic spirit that has migrated from empire to empire over the ages. The spirit of ancient babel. The spiritual progeny of Cain and Nimrod…that spirit has migrated from empire to empire over the ages and that harlot spirit still is active today.
It is no coincidence that taking a tour of Washington DC feels a lot like touring an ancient Roman Capitol. No christian/disciple/apostle monuments. Whether its the apotheosis of George Washington in the rotunda or the goddess Libertas (largest idol on planet earth ever!) or the Roman bald eagle, or the Egyptian obelisk (wa monument). There is no doubt where that satanic spirit currently operates from in it’s most recent migration.
