Joel 2: 2-11 ; Habakkuk 3:19
“A people come, great and strong, the like of whom has never been; Nor will there ever be any such after them, even for many successive generations… They run like mighty men, they climb the wall like men of war; every one marches in formation. And they do not break ranks. 8 They do not push one another; every one marches in his own column. Though they lunge between the weapons, they are not cut down”.
God is raising up an arm, people who will carry out His mission in this end time. God is raising up a host of warriors to declare His name/truth across the globe; to stand against the kingdom of darkness, to promote God’s kingdom of light.
Being trained as end time comrades (by God Himself), they are about to unleash their attack against evil. Their feet are trained for battle, their hands are trained for war. They are trained to endure unpleasant situations, and survive hostile environments. God is pouring out His Spirit upon them; they prophecy, see visions, and dream dreams.
Forth in His name they go, unmoved, undaunted, unshaken. Backed by heaven’s army, they are valiant, brave, and courageous. Standing on God’s word, they are strong, sure, and guided. Led by the Spirit, they are united, empowered, and victorious.
God is raising up an end time army to execute His mission on earth. People with special assignments for the kingdom’s sake. An army whose passion and zeal (for Christ) burn with unquenchable fire. People who will not retreat in the face of danger or death.
