Song of Songs 8
Isaiah 6
“Who is this one? She arises out of her desert, clinging to her beloved. When I awakened you under the apple tree, as you were feasting upon me, I awakened your innermost being with the travail of birth as you longed for more of me. Fasten me upon your heart as a seal of fire forevermore. This living, consuming flame will seal you as my prisoner of love. My passion is stronger than the chains of death and the grave, all consuming as the very flashes of fire from the burning heart of God. Place this fierce, unrelenting fire over your entire being.”
Song of Songs 8:5-6 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
Transitions are coming. People are being moved around. Many are shifting roles and homes, locations and even areas of focus. What once seemed like clear purpose is moving out of importance in favor of something new that burns like a hot coal deep in the soul. This hot coal is even being held out in the left hand of those burning with passion as a marker, as an anointing and as a taunt in the face of the enemy. Trials have come, but still they burn. Waves have come like disturbances and interruptions, but still they burn. They boarded ships that suddenly felt as though they were headed for sure disaster, but still they burn.
“Rivers of pain and persecution will never extinguish this flame. Endless floods will be unable to quench this raging fire that burns within you. Everything will be consumed. It will stop at nothing as you yield everything to this furious fire until it won’t even seem to you like a sacrifice anymore.”
Song of Songs 8:7 TPT
I’m raising up these ones who have burned in the hidden place, who have fought through every obstacle and overcome every wave. Even the ones who got overwhelmed but fought the waves and the winds of adversity and stayed afloat amid disaster and shipwreck. I Am positioning these ones in the Holy War. They are battle tested and true, and now I Am elevating them to ranks and positions of leadership in My Holy War.
“I could have chosen any from among the vast multitude of royal ones who follow me. But unique is my beloved dove—unrivaled in beauty, without equal, beyond compare, the perfect one, the favorite one. Others see your beauty and sing of your joy. Brides and queens chant your praise: “How blessed is she!” Look at you now— arising as the dayspring of the dawn, fair as the shining moon, bright and brilliant as the sun in all its strength— astonishing to behold as a majestic army waving banners of victory.”
Song of Songs 6:8-10 TPT
I’m elevating those who have received fresh purpose, fresh marching orders which burn in their left hand, and I’m elevating those whose burning coal of purpose is lifted up to Me in their right hand and has long been staked through their souls.
Those whose coal of purpose burns in their left hand are younger soldiers who have made a choice of will to be branded by Me and to take hold of the passion to which I have called them. These are the lieutenants and those of similar rank.
Those in whose right hand burns a coal that passed through their heart and is held firmly in place like a stake through their soul — these are the generals and the rising colonels. These are those whose wills have become one with Mine, whose passion has been fused with Mine and who will war from a place of peace, stillness and truth.
“The shining of your spirit shows how you have taken my truth to become balanced and complete. Your beautiful blushing cheeks reveal how real your passion is for me, even hidden behind your veil of humility.”
Song of Songs 6:6-7 TPT
The battlefield is changing. Transitions are here. Promotions are here. Assignment changes and areas of focus being shifted and totally changing are here. This is My Holy War for truth. This is the moment and phase for which I have been preparing you. Don’t take it lightly, and move when I say move. Battle plans are shifting, and new terrain is marked out which I want you to take. Get into the mindset and the heart-set of Caleb and Joshua, and run in in faith with a yes at My command. When I say go, I expect you to rise up, run in and take it. Battle plans are shifting. Stay focused. Stay attuned to Me. Stay agile. And have your YES and your GO ready. This is a new day. This is a new phase of war.
How to Respond
- Pray, Lord help me to clearly see and deeply burn with the purpose You have placed in my hand and heart. Help me to make whatever shifts, transitions and moves I need to make to be in position for this new phase of the war. Help me to get into perfect peace and remain there for the duration. Help me to war from a place of deep joy and celebrate who You are all along the way.
- Declare, “Then out of the smoke, one of the angels of fire flew to me. He had in his hands a burning coal he had taken from the altar with tongs. He touched my lips with it and said, “See? The burning coal from the altar has touched your lips. Your guilt is taken away; your sin is blotted out.” Then I heard the Lord saying, “Whom should I send to my people? Who will go to represent us?” I spoke up and said, “I will be the one. Send me.””
— Isaiah 6:6-8 TPT - Decree, I am a warrior in the Lord’s army. He is positioning me according to His purposes. I want to be right where He wants me to be doing the work He’s purposed for me to do. I burn with a fiery passion from the purpose He has given me and planted deeply inside of me. I want to live according to His will and fight from the position He has marked out for me. I will transition, shift, move and change at His instruction. I will take new territory at His command. I will be among those who war and win in the Lord’s Holy War for truth.
