Today’s Reading:
Jeremiah 33
Jeremiah 50
Joel 3
Proclaim this message among the nations: “Prepare for war!” Awaken the champions! Let all you soldiers gather, advance, and march. Hammer your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weakling say, “I am a champion!” Hurry and join the battle, all you surrounding nations. Come and assemble there. Yahweh, send down your champions, your warring angels!
Joel 3:9-11 TPT
I heard the Spirit of the Living God say,
I Am assembling a great army — a broadcast army — an army who will broadcast My truth on the airwaves, to the peoples. These warriors will be known for the prominent belt of truth they wear. Their feet will be shod with the Gospel of peace. Some of them will prepare the way. Others will bring in the Harvest. Their shield of faith will protect them from the fiery and incessant darts of the enemy; and behind it they wear My righteousness as a cover over their hearts. The battle space of the mind, they cover with the helmet of My great salvation. It protects them from wandering down paths of wrong stories and keeps them from traveling the roads of lies, regret and what-ifs.
Archers! Take your positions against Babylon and surround her. Shoot at her! Empty your quiver, for she has sinned against Yahweh. Raise the war cry against her from all sides. She surrenders! The attackers have broken down her fortifications and walls. This is Yahweh’s vengeance! Take revenge on her. Do to them what they did to others.
Jeremiah 50:14-15 TPT
I Am assembling a vast digital army, and My warriors will know Me intimately. Their heads stay close to My chest, and they know My voice. The weapons of their warfare are not carnal, but they are mighty for the pulling down of strongholds. Their words turn the tides of battles. My words in their mouths enforced by My angelic host tear down strongholds to Baal. They tear down ancient strongholds over which good men have lamented but have not torn down. Ashera poles are coming down in Jesus’s Mighty Name.
Isolation has refined your hearing and retained the purity of My words. Now is the time of convergence. Now is the time of assembling. Now is the time of multiplied strength, and are strongholds toppling at the sound of the songs of praise from the mouth of babies.
“Israel was like straying lambs, driven away and scattered by lions. “First, the king of Assyria devoured them, and now, Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon has gnawed their bones. So I, Yahweh, God of Israel, Commander of Angel Armies, say this: Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his nation as I punished the king of Assyria. “I will bring Israel back to her own land. The people will be like sheep eating their fill on Mount Carmel, in Bashan, in the hill country of Ephraim, and in Gilead. They will all be satisfied. I, Yahweh, declare that at that time, you may look for Israel’s guilt, but it will disappear, you may search for Judah’s sins, but you will not find them, for I will forgive the remnant whose lives I have spared.”
Jeremiah 50:17-20 TPT
This is a different time, where the spiritual comes to the forefront of lives, where the faith, the inner workings of people’s lives is no longer hidden, no longer kept quiet. But it is coming into prominence, and their spiritual lives and the spiritual realities of the world become the most important and the most real things. Spiritual truths and spiritual realities will usurp physical realities on the air waves. More will be said about the spiritual realm than the physical world around us.
Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies, says: “My people, Israel and Judah, are oppressed, You hold them fast and will not let them go. But their Redeemer is powerful! My name is Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies. I will take up their cause and rescue them. I will give the nation rest but make the people of Babylon tremble.
Jeremiah 50:33-34 TPT
An understanding is beginning to dawn that the spiritual is the force behind the physical; and so the move and the desire of hearts toward addressing root causes and no longer only addressing symptoms will lead them here. It will lead them to spiritual searching, spiritual hunger, and I will open up the pathways and the airwaves. I will flood them with the voices that sound like Mine, the voices that are like rushing waters of truth pouring out understanding and wisdom on a dry and thirsty people who have had no water. This is a ministry of hope. This is a ministry of love and compassion. This is a ministry of truth that nourishes and restores souls and brings health to bones.
I will bring back the captives of Israel and Judah and reestablish them as before. I will cleanse them from all the guilt of all the sins they have committed against me. I will even forgive all their sins of rebellion against me. And it will become to me a source of joy, honor, and splendor for all the earth to see. When they hear of all the prosperity that I bestow upon the people, they will be shaken to the core at all the good and prosperity that I lavish upon it.
Jeremiah 33:7-9 TPT
I Am using the airwaves to bring private revelation, private restoration, to address the private hunger and needs that in many cases cannot yet be met elsewhere. The airwaves are the tip of the spear. Hungry hearts and desperate eyes will find them. They will find these warrior voices of truth. And a home church phenomenon will emerge among these hungry ones in pursuit of truth. Home churches will rapidly begin to emerge, and they will quickly overtake traditional, modern churches. And true early church community will be restored. They will walk it out together. They will walk out their lives of faith together.
How to Respond
- Pray, Holy Spirit thank You for the way You are rising up to meet the hunger and the need of so many desperate people. Thank You that a spiritual hunger and awakening has begun, and You have positioned many warriors of truth to speak into those needs. Lord I pray that You bring resourcing and community for those warriors who have lived for so long in isolation. I ask for Your Divine guidance to lead the seekers to exactly the messages and the voices they need to hear.
- Declare, Tell the nations the news; proclaim it everywhere. Publicize it far and wide; make no secret of it, and declare: ‘Babylon has fallen! Her god Marduk is greatly humiliated, and his power is broken. Her idols are disgraced; her filthy images are shattered.’ For a nation is attacking Babylon from the north that will reduce her nation to a desert. People and animals will flee, and no one will inhabit it. — Jeremiah 50:2-3 TPT
- Declare, “They say about this place, ‘It is a wasteland, without people or animals.’ But this is what I, Yahweh, say to you: In the desolate towns of Judah and in the abandoned streets of Jerusalem without people or animals, you will hear once more the raucous shouts of joy and mirth and the voice of the bridegroom and the voice of the bride. You will once again hear the glad songs sung by those who bring thank offerings to my temple, singing, ‘We give thanks to mighty Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies, for he is so good, and he will love you forever!’ “I, Yahweh, promise that I will bring back the country’s captives, as before. And surrounding all the towns of this uninhabited wasteland without people or animals, there will once again be pastureland for the shepherds to rest their flocks,” says Yahweh, Commander of Angel Armies. “In the towns of the highlands, the lowlands, and the southern desert, in the land of Benjamin, in the villages around Jerusalem, and in the towns of Judah, flocks will once again pass under the hand of a shepherd who counts them,” declares Yahweh. — Jeremiah 33:10-13 TPT
- Decree, the Lord has moved us into a time of great awakening to spiritual hunger and need. He has put digital warriors — a broadcast army — on the frontlines of great, fierce battles; and He is causing the truth to be desired and heard. He is connecting spiritually desolate and starving ones to the voices and messages that will bring understanding, healing, repentance and new life. And he will cause small, powerful communities to pop up across the nation and world — a home church movement that restores the connectedness that has been largely missing since the early church.
