The Remnant is entering their Maccabee moment: they have had enough of Mystery Babylon. Now is the time to drive out the influence of the priesthood of darkness and cleanse God’s temples. Now is the time for a fresh dedication and determination to return to the ways of God and the purity of the Kingdom!
God hates injustice (Prov 6:16-19). As we pray, the Almighty will reveal and bring to justice those in government and industry who have sought to destroy America and enslave the world. It is also essential to keep a Kingdom mindset amid all that is happening today. The apostle Paul provides practical instructions to the Body in Phil. 4:4-9 that are more applicable today than ever before.
The fear of the LORD is powerful: it can transform those caught in the worst of circumstances and bring them in line with Kingdom purposes. We are entering a season in which the Holy Spirit will release this holy fear to transform captives into whistleblowers strategically! We believe Almighty God will uncover the underbelly of corruption in the U.S. and Western society that cannot be denied or covered up. Everything hidden is going to be revealed. The Remnant must be ready for this Rahab Moment.
In the den of warfare for the soul of humanity, it is easy to forget that God is a man of war. Being the absolute victor is part of His character. We must lift our eyes from the current struggle and see the glorious wonder of the God we serve. The Almighty is our shield, and He has the back of the Remnant! Let faith rise in our hearts, for victory is just around the next bend!
The spirit (anointing of Elijah) is always released before the appearance of Messiah. We see this anointing in the ministry of John the Baptist. We will see it again in our day as Heaven releases this prophetic refreshing in new and powerful ways upon thousands of men and women worldwide who have been waiting in desert places for God to release them. As Habakkuk, they will be standing on their watches waiting for a STRONG word for the Lord.
We have just celebrated the Feast of Trumpets and are in the Days of Awe. This is a prophetic time for repentance. It is also a time when the King is in the field, which means that Heaven is speaking and that the King has made Himself available to hear our petitions in this prophetic season. Heaven is waiting to listen to the cry for Kingdom warriors: those that will fight to see the King’s purposes released into the earth. It is a time for Kingdom power and purpose to be released upon the Remnant. Are you crying out to the King? Have you made yourself ready?
The Word tells us that God’s ways are not our ways. We often do not understand what God is doing as He takes us through life’s challenges. Our response to our covenant-keeping God must always be trust. In trust, the challenges the enemy brings our way to become transformational. What the enemy meant for evil, God works through it toward our good. With trust and transformation comes strength and a prophetic refreshing to face the future.
The mark of the twenty-first century is deception. Paul warned Timothy about the growing deception in 2 Timothy 3. News is propaganda. Education is indoctrination. World events can be used as distractions for the masses. How can the Remnant protect themselves from Babylon’s onslaught of deception?
In life, many of us feel like Peter in Luke 22:31: Satan wants to sift us like wheat. There are also times when God tests us as He did with His people in the desert. For the Remnant, these times of testing and sifting cause them to press into God even more. The result of the testing produces promotion in the Kingdom! The Lakes also discuss the reality of a Kundalini spirit that has gained a foothold in the Church and how to tell the difference.
God is calling us to return to keeping covenant with Him. As we return, there is great power in proclaiming that the mercy of God never ends. This truth is revealed throughout scripture. It is also an important element in the dedication of Solomon’s Temple: repentance, a return to covenant, and the proclaiming of God’s grace and mercy. This truth is a hallmark of the Remnant today!
