equipping

I heard the Spirit of the Living God say, 
The gears of war are turning, and I Am moving you into battle. You have thought that you were on the front lines of battle. You have experienced battle, and you have been in the fight. But you were not on the front lines. You couldn’t see, and you couldn’t tell. But you were actually just outside the camp. You were actually in a quite protected place just outside the camp. You could run back at any time for rest, for provision. But I have made you into a skilled warrior. Your time in training at the back of the battle in the protected, least vicious zone of the battle has earned My trust and has equipped you, trained you, honed you and given you the skills to advance in the fight. You have learned how to carefully care for your armor and the weapons that I have given you. And now I Am advancing you in the fight. I Am moving you to front lines of battle, because I have strengthened you. Because I have equipped you, because you have been well-trained in how to use the weapons of warfare I have put at your disposal.
