“You must not take this spiritual warfare lightly says the Lord. There is an intensity developing in the spiritual realm around you and it is vital that not only are you aware of it, but you are prepared to do battle at all times.

The attacks can come at any time and will often be from areas that you would least expect to be attacked by.

Build up your strength in the Spirit by prayer and making sure that you are under the protection of My Holy Spirit at all times says God. Pray in the Spirit at all times says the Lord, to keep your plans secret from the enemy.

Make proclamations of victory and confound the wicked ones by surrounding yourselves with Holiness and light.

Process your thoughts carefully and with diligent focus. Be sure that you capture anything unseemly and turn it over to Me says the Lord.

Keep My Word on your lips and attire yourself in My armor, especially in the night. This is a vulnerable time for you and it is crucially important that you do not sleep without your armor.

Remember, during war-time you could be called to defend yourselves or even to attack at any time. The enemy will not be saying ‘ ok, well, we’ll just wait while you get ready’

They will immediately seek to gain advantage from such a situation and would want to inflict wounds upon you or worse. It is within your own control to make sure that this does not happen. Keep your equipment clean and in tip top condition and realize that now, as a spiritual warrior it must become a permanent part of you. To spend any time not wearing it, is highly dangerous. It is like a person who drives a vehicle without wearing a seat-belt; they are flirting with danger in an unnecessary manner.

As you will recall from My Word, the names of these evil spirits are so numerous, they are called ‘legion’. In fact they are constantly being re-assigned and given new names in an attempt to gain the upper hand in the battle.

There is an important principal to understand here, which can save you a tremendous amount of wasted time and effort in seeking names or natures of those evil ones.

Firstly you already have total victory and dominion over any and all of them, you just have to learn to walk in that victory. When you are in your own domain and walking in righteousness, they cannot touch you.

This is true regardless of whether you are walking in the earthly realm, in the spiritual realm or in the heavenlies.

This righteousness is so pure that it will completely overwhelm and overpower any demon.

Consider this; it is completely impossible for a germ to exist in a sterile environment.

I have given you the tools with which to keep your environment and your earthly body in a completely sterilized condition. Just use these tools on an ongoing basis and this whole situation with spirits is taken care of.

Once you have attained even an elementary level of Holiness, no evil can exist anywhere near you. They will be repulsed by even the aroma that you give off. Any that are foolish enough to enter your domain will be beheaded by your sword of the Spirit, speaking out My Holy Words and bringing destruction upon them. Others will be incinerated by the light emanating from your eyes as you capture them in your gaze in the spirit realm.

So how is this level of righteous Holiness obtained? By diligent focus, by bringing the mind and the body under control, by nourishing it with the Word and the Holy Spirit. Encapsulate your entire body with My anointing at all times says the Lord.

Make regular checks not only on your own armor but also to that of those close to you. A blunt sword is of no use in this battle, pay careful attention to the condition of all equipment.

The tongue is still your greatest adversary. It can almost be like ‘the enemy within’.

You must be so vigilant regarding what you confess into being says the Lord. Even this talking of the various spiritual activities taking place in your lives can be dangerous, as it is often giving unnecessary energy to the enemy ranks. Debating the nature of these spirits can create an ‘ internal fear’, however small. This is the very fuel for their existence, the trigger which empowers them to start operating their destructive ways.

So be extremely careful with what is allowed to leave your tongue.

Take immediate action to cleanse your house and put on your armor, then drape yourself in the mantle of the anointing and you will present a formidable statue.

Once you embrace this mission, you will have drawn attention to yourself in the spirit realm, and as such there is no going back for you.

Having walked into the fray, you must now be a warrior. You know that you are called to be more than a conqueror. This will in no way resemble your old life.

If you seek any understanding of what has gone before, just know that it was all either part of the preparation for this time or part of the enemies attempt to make sure that you never made it to this point.

There are new horizons ahead for you says God, new challenges, new destinations and new environments. They will all be part of this new spiritual assignment.

The battle lines have been drawn in the sand. You have your armor you have your weapons. The entire battle plan cannot yet be revealed as it is so secret that only I know the plan says the Lord.

You will be made aware of each new step as the time arrives. If I were to reveal it all to you now says God it would seem as though the odds against you were too great and so for now, you will only see the enemy you can cope with”
