While praying, I saw multitudes of deceived young people gathered to “celebrate” the annihilation of the Jews. This was Haman’s plan (as it is Satan’s) in the Book of Esther (Esther 3:5). From Canaan (Humble, brought low) Land, Joshua gave the order to shout, and the walls of Jericho fell (Joshua 6:20 AMPC)! The Promise Land (Canaan) is now within you! It’s Him—The Word and “Shout” through you, that will “de-feet” the giants in the Land! Many of these young people have been “walled in” and held captive in the strongholds of their minds in “Jericho.” In the Book of Judges (7:20), we see Gideon and his small army, as they held their lamps and trumpets, crying out, “The sword of the Lord, and of Gideon!” In the Book of Joshua (5:13-15), The Commander (Prince) of The Lord’s hosts stands opposite Joshua with a drawn sword in His hand, reflecting not only His image (as in a mirror-2 Cor. 3:18), but also His Way as being opposite of Joshua’s way (previously) under the Law. God’s Presence before them, Trumpets, and a Shout (The Word—The Sword of The Lord) were their weapons! In the Book of Esther (9:5, 8:2) due to a New Decree—The “King’s” reversal, we see again, it’s with the stroke of the sword, that the People of God “de-feet” their enemies. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 states, our weapons are not carnal (weapons of flesh and blood of this world), but are mighty in God for the tearing down of strongholds (lying fortresses in people’s minds). So with the Sword of The Lord—The Word of God, we can “Shout” those lying Jericho walls down that hold these young ones captive to deception. However, a huge key is found in the very next verse (2 Cor. 10:6) and states, “Being in readiness to punish every [insubordinate for his] disobedience, when your own submission and obedience [as a church] are fully secured and complete.” This is why “House Cleaning” has come to the House of The Lord, for we must walk in Holy (1 Peter 1:15-17) submission as a Bride preparing Herself for Her Husband—Her Head—Her King. Satan has done a wonderful job in having the People of God war against these deceived young people. In the natural this seems righteous, but let’s pray for one another as Paul prayed for the church in Ephesians 1:18, “Open the eyes of their hearts, and let the light of Your truth flood in. Shine Your light on the hope You are calling them to embrace. Reveal to them the glorious riches You are preparing as their inheritance. I love that in Ephesians 6:17, that the weapons—Helmet of Salvation and Sword of the Spirit are joined together. So Salvation should be at the forefront of a True Believer’s mind as they wield the Sword—the Word of God. We have the Mind of Christ (1 Cor. 2:16) that overcomes the world! Remember…it’s opposite! It’s Salvation He wills—not extinction! We war from our Promise Land of VICTORY, for He made an open show of Satan (Colossians 2:15) and has seated us in heavenly places with Him (Ephesians 2:6-7)! So speak to things that are NOT as though they ARE IN HIM (Romans 4:17). Take your Sword out of the sheath and speak Truth—The Word of The Lord (yes, You, “Gideon!”)! Light the darkness with the Truth of His Word and cut through the clouds of deception. Our King—Jesus, has bestowed upon us a New and better Covenant (Hebrews 8:6-13) in an EPIC Divine reversal, giving us His Name (Signet Ring) to overcome the enemies of God, as we Co-labor with Him ( Luke 10:19, Matthew 16:17-18, Cor. 3:9). It’s interesting, in both Esther and Hebrews (same chapter and verses) it speaks of a divine reversal in a New Covenant Decree (Esther 8:6-13, Hebrews 8:6-13). In The Book of Esther, fear (dread) came upon the people, as God’s People arose. Same as in Joshua, as they proceeded to take their land (Esther 9:2-4, Joshua 2:8-9). Lord, we pray and remember our True Identity as One with the King, that every satanic anti-Semitic mindset would fall as we raise our Sword and “Shout!” We bind the lies over these young minds and loose Your Truth (John 8:44, John 10:10)! Open the eyes of their hearts (Ephesian 1:18), that they would see the devourer and know the Truth that will set them free! Send laborers, Lord, even angels unaware! In Joshua 6:20, it states, “they took the city.” Lord, we pray we take every city! As Your People Arise and Shine, may the fear and dread of the Lord fall upon the people, causing many to become “Jews” (Esther 8:17). These young ones are Your Harvest, which we pray we’re found faithful in watching over (to fruition). No longer as in the days of Jericho does the Ark of the Covenant go before us, but is now within us. We carry Your Presence—Your MERCY SEAT, speaking as One Spirit and Voice of Truth, and we blow the Victory Trumpet in Zion—IT IS FINISHED! Romans 16:20 states, “And the God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah) be with you.“ It’s in Peace in His Finished work, the enemy is de-feeted, so pray accordingly! Make it count and may the Lord receive the reward of His suffering (John 3:16).
