I recently was reminded of a vision I had a couple of years ago. The vision was a call to intercession, but it came with a word of caution and wisdom. I feel led to share it again because there is a strong urgency being released from heaven for a call to intercession. My prayer is that you will heed the call...
10-18-13 Vision – Incoming missiles taken out by our own missiles
I saw missiles rising into the air from far distances far
away from the land I was in. As they rose into the sky they bowed over and
began to come down over the area and the land I was standing in. They seemed to
be moving in slow motion. Suddenly, I saw missiles begin to rise from all
around me where I stood. They were fast as lightning and intercepted every
incoming missile to destroy them in midair before they could hit their intended
targets.
This time I looked around to see where the missiles were
being launched from, but to my surprise, I saw launch pads without missiles.
Instead, there were people on them and they were praying. They prayed fervently
until they began to burn bright with God’s glory until the glory exploded out
of them looking like a missile in a streak of lightning, hitting the incoming
missiles and destroying them.
Then the people on the launch pads were depleted, but seemed
to be excited at the success of their intercession, but then they became a
little disoriented and grayish in color. Some of them immediately went to a
place and began to drink water until they became colorful again. They did this
for a time and then they went back to the launch pads and began to intercede as
soon as they saw an incoming missile. They were on point and hit the incoming target.
The other intercessors that did not do as the first group
just wandered around for a while until they could not walk anymore. They would
fall down on the ground and begin crying and were depressed. They seemed have
no will or understanding that they needed to be drinking water just like the
others. End of vision
Interpretation:
The people in the vision are seers and prophetic intercessors
who God has positioned to intercede over the land. He is exposing the plans of
the enemy even though the enemy is from a far and distant location. The Lord’s
people in the vision were able to take out every single missile. These are the
intercessors who have laid their lives and agendas down to take up the cause of
the King. They have been given great authority in the spirit realm to expose
and cancel the plans of the enemy before they ever manifest.
2 Kings 6:8-12 8 One time when the king of Aram was at war with
Israel, after consulting with his officers, he said, “At such and such a place
I want an ambush set.” 9 The Holy Man sent a message to the
king of Israel: “Watch out when you’re passing this place, because Aram has set
an ambush there.” 0 So the king of Israel sent word concerning
the place of which the Holy Man had warned him. This kind of thing happened all
the time. 11 The king of Aram was furious over all this. He
called his officers together and said, “Tell me, who is leaking information to
the king of Israel? Who is the spy in our ranks?” 12 But one of
his men said, “No, my master, dear king. It’s not any of us. It’s Elisha the
prophet in Israel. He tells the king of Israel everything you say, even what
you whisper in your bedroom. “Message
Bible
These intercessors are not moved by what
they see in the natural so they are not motivated by fear, worry or anxiety. They
are only motivated by what is revealed to them during intercession by the King
of kings. They are only motivated by the victory that has already been won by
the Ancient of Days.
Philippians 4:6-7 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication,
with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of
God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds
through Christ Jesus. NKJV
They wisely intercede until they are
burning bright with the revelation the Lord has for them concerning the
assignment He has for them to accomplish.
Matthew 28:3 His countenance was
like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow.
Isaiah 60:1-2 Arise,
shine; for your light has come! And the glory of the LORD
is risen upon you. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross
darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be
seen upon thee.
Then and only then will they rise onto the
launch pad, which symbolizes the intercessor rising in intercession into the
spirit realm ready to make war by the abundance of revelation given to them. They
are only moved by the Spirit so God has given them great authority, a mantle to
see and hear what the enemy is planning in his war rooms. They have learned to
only say what the Father is saying and they have learned to only say it when He
tells them to say it. John the Baptist said Jesus would baptize us with the
Holy Ghost and fire.
John 3:11 I indeed baptize you
with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I,
whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost,
and with fire: KJV
One meaning for the word fire in this verse is lightning - "fire" (literally or figuratively,
specially, lightning):—fiery, fire.
– Strong’s Definition
The lightning symbolizing His power released through the
intercessors by way of decree and declaration to destroy the works of the
enemy.
2 Samuel 22:15 He sent
out arrows and scattered them; lightning bolts, and He vanquished them.
Job 36:32 He covers His hands with lightning,
and commands it to strike.
Job 37:3 He sends it
forth under the whole heaven, His lightning to the ends of the
earth.
Psalm 78:48 He also gave
up their cattle to the hail, and their flocks to fiery lightning.
The Lord has raised up mighty men and women of no
reputation, who are willing to lay aside all in order to be used by Him to
expose and bring down the plans of the enemy against this nation. He has given
them power and influence over the nations.
The Lord is saying to these intercessors it is important to
enter into a season of rest after they have achieved the assignment He has
called them to. They must be careful to not allow the thrill of the victory to
cause them to carelessly continue on without taking time to be refreshed by the
Lord through His Word and Spirit, which is shown by the intercessors drinking
water in the vision. To continue on without a season of rest is carelessness
and pride on the intercessor’s behalf, presuming that no one else is willing to
stand in the gap. This same thing happened to the prophet Elijah.
1 Kings 19:14, 18 And he
said, “I have been very zealous for the LORD God of hosts; because the children of
Israel have forsaken Your covenant, torn down Your altars, and killed Your
prophets with the sword. I alone am left; and they seek to take my life.”
The Lord’s response to Elijah…v18 “Yet I have reserved seven thousand in
Israel, all whose knees have not bowed to Baal, and every mouth that has not
kissed him.” NKJV
The minute an intercessor begins to believe they are the
only one who is fasting and interceding, or they are more special than the
other intercessors of God, they have entered into deception, and pride is the
bride of deception. These are the intercessors in the vision who did not rest
after completing their assignment. They would not take time to pray and fast to
receive a refreshing from the Lord and a fresh revelation for their next assignment.
It wasn’t long before they are wandering around confused depressed,
representing being off point and carnal, doubting they are even hearing from
the Lord, even believing they are under attack by the enemy, but in reality
they are just dehydrated (no Word in them) and exhausted (no rest from the
Lord). No doubt this can and will open a door for attacks.
1 Kings 19:5-8 Then as he
lay and slept under a broom tree, suddenly an angel touched him, and said to
him, “Arise and eat.” Then he
looked, and there by his head was
a cake baked on coals, and a jar of water. So he ate and drank, and lay down
again. And the angel of the LORD came back the second time, and touched him, and said, “Arise and eat, because the journey is too great for you.” So he arose, and ate
and drank; and he went in the strength of that food forty days and forty nights
as far as Horeb, the mountain of God.
The intercessors who took time to rest, read the Word, and
pray, would become very colorful, which represented being refreshed, strengthen
and receiving fresh revelation for the next assignment. Once the season of rest
was completed, the intercessor would rise on the platform once again to release
the decrees and declarations received during their time of rest in the presence
of the Lord. Their intercession was successful as it was in the beginning of
the vision.
The Lord is saying it is
imperative that His intercessors rest after they have completed their
assignments. End-time intercessors must not be must not become fearful and anxious,
taking upon themselves the same self-deception Elijah brought upon himself,
believing they are more important than they really are. End-time intercessors
are very important, but they are not all alone in this battle. They are not
called to be lone rangers. They are called to be a part of a body of
intercessors, God’s end-time army. He has untold numbers of intercessors to
take the place of intercessors who are resting. He’s got it all worked out. Do
not fear, He has already overcome the world.
Intercessor, you too must also
overcome the world, in and through Him, who has already overcome all things.
Revelation 2:25-29 “But hold fast what you have till I come.
“And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give
power over the nations— ‘He shall rule them with a rod of
iron; They shall be dashed to pieces like the potter’s vessels’—
as I also have received from My Father; “and I will give him the morning star. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” NKJV
as I also have received from My Father; “and I will give him the morning star. “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” NKJV
Father, thank you for giving us willing hearts and minds so that we might humble ourselves to pray. Show us our wicked ways, but then show us yours ways. Father, in Jesus name we pray.
