Today’s Reading:
Isaiah 62
Habakkuk 2
Psalm 149
Jerusalem, I have stationed intercessors on your walls who will never be silent, day or night. You “reminders” of Yahweh, take no rest, and tirelessly give God no rest, until he firmly establishes Jerusalem and makes her the praise of all the earth!
Isaiah 62:6-7 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
Magnify My Name in truth. Magnify My Name in praise. Set yourself up on the wall. Get up to that high vantage point on top of the fortified wall. From up here you can see the enemy’s movements and strategies. You can see his formations and the places he sees as vulnerable to attack. Fortify those places in prayer. Don’t shout down the enemy. It does no good. To engage with the enemy is a distraction. What I want is for you to see clearly the movements, the strategies and the targets of the enemy. Set up teams in those locations, and pray and sing songs of worship. Declare these the fortifications of the Lord. Declare these the strongest points in the wall that protects the city of the Lord’s planting.
I will wait at my watchpost and station myself on the tower. I’ll keep watching to see what he’ll say to me and consider the reply when he answers my argument.
Habakkuk 2:1 TPT
This is your battle strategy. It is largely meant to be in the up-higher place. It is mainly meant to be out of harm’s reach, up on the wall looking down, gaining insight and setting out troops to the weak places yes, but even to the strong places that the enemy views as weak. Because he won’t always operate in sanity. He will attack what appears to be weak even though it is strong, and that too requires fortification. It requires song and worship and praise to bring failure, confusion and angelic help to the attack point of the enemy. This is the strategy I Am setting out: Gather the intercessors. Get up on the wall. View things and assess the scene from this very high perspective that I have provided, and respond accordingly. Record and keep track of the enemy movements. Send teams to those locations to stand on the wall there and sing songs of worship. This is not a time for direct engagements with the enemy.
His godly lovers triumph in the glory of God, and their joyful praises will rise even while others sleep. God’s high and holy praises fill their mouths, for their shouted praises are their weapons of war! These warring weapons will bring vengeance on the nations and every resistant power— to bind kings with chains and rulers with iron shackles.
Psalms 149:5-8 TPT
This is a time for the up-higher warfare, the kind he never sees coming. Trust what you see with your spiritual eyes. Trust what I show you and allow you to hear. I will give you insight and even the full ability to spy in the enemy’s camp from this place I have provided up high on the wall of the fortified city of My planting. Get up high. Watch, see, listen and sing. This is the assignment.
How To Respond
- Gather the intercessors, get on the wall, spy on the enemy and sing songs of fortifying worship in the places he intends to attack.
- Pray, Holy Spirit thank You for a war strategy. Help me to see and understand the movements of the enemy from this very high vantage point that You have provided. Help me to trust what I am seeing and hearing and to be quick to respond accordingly with fortified units bearing weapons of praise in those vulnerable and even strong places. Help me to trust what I see and hear in the spirit more than what I see and believe in the natural.
- Declare, Praise-filled warriors will enforce the judgment decreed against their enemies. This is the honor he gives to all his godly lovers. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
Psalms 149:9 TPT - Decree, I will get up onto that high and fortified place, up on the wall that the Lord has provided. In partnership with my brothers and sisters in Christ, I will perceive and understand and even hear the battle plans of the enemy. We will dispatch strike units to bring songs of weaponized praise to each of those locations. We will remain in each location until we see in the spirit that the enemy has fled or been defeated.
