Jill Austin: "GOD IS MOBILIZING GLOBAL PRAYER WARRIORS TO INVADE THE KINGDOM OF DARKNESS--ARE YOU AVAILABLE?"

"We are living in a kairos hour in history right now, and it demands that we know the times and seasons we are living in today."

What are the Giants in Our Lives?

We really need to go before the Lord and say, "Lord, what are the giants in my life?" Before you have the authority to bring freedom to others, you must deal with those sins in your own life! Can you confront darkness if there is corruption in your own members? You cannot.

I believe that we limit the Holy Spirit any time we are not aware of our senses--what we see or hear, what we smell, taste or touch. Our senses are open gateways for God--or for the enemy. Do you know, for instance, that you can smell demonic activity around certain people just as you can smell the perfume of the Lord coming into a sanctuary?

When I am in a service, I look at the people. I look for signposts. Once when I was ministering at an altar area, a man pushed the other people out of the way and said, "I want prayer now."

He put his hands into mine. I looked at him and before I even thought about it, I told him he had a stronghold of immoral perversion, and said, "Your hands are unclean." I could feel the filth and the immoral perversion all around him.

He turned bright red, started sobbing uncontrollably and the Lord touched him beautifully as he repented and went through deliverance.

Note, too, that sometimes when the Lord wants to impart a word of knowledge for healing, He might give the intercessor the exact pain or symptom that He wants to heal in the person. "This is unusual," you might think, "I don't remember having hives three minutes ago." This is clear direction for prayer.

Strategic Intercession: How to Defeat the Enemy in Your Life

Soldiers must pray without ceasing. Jesus wants us to go into the war room and get weapons for the new battles we will go up against each day (see Jeremiah 33:3). We can take comfort in the fact that Jesus ever lives to make intercession for us (see Hebrews 7:25). Prayer, fasting, and worship accelerate our hunger and passion for Him. As Oswald Chambers said, "Prayer does not fit us for the greater work; prayer is the greater work."

In the hour of history we live in, moving in the Spirit is essential to our survival. Hearing God's voice in our everyday life is no longer an option but a necessity. It is imperative that we all live supernatural lives and spend time in the secret place with the Lord. He is calling all of us to a deeper intimacy and prayer in the hour in which we live.

The Lord is mobilizing global prayer warriors to invade the kingdom of darkness that threatens the borders of our nations. These intercessors will stand in the gap to bring down fresh strategies and blueprint plans from the Kingdom of God. I feel like the Lord is raising a remnant of valiant prayer warriors across denominations, all around the earth. Radical prayer furnaces are springing up and they are saying, "Lord, we don't want to just pray little prayers, we want to go into the Heavens and see what is happening so we can impact our world."

Reese Howells was a radical apostolic intercessor in World War II. He was a man who would go up into the Heavens with a group of intercessors and they would see the strategies of the enemy and the strategies of God. They would start to intercede from the Heavens and change the course of the war. The Lord is saying that He is looking for people who are willing to move on a governmental level, asking Him what is over the land and territory.

He also wants us to ask Him to show us what is happening right in our own homes! It is imperative that we start to get fresh strategies to move in the counsels of God and hear His voice to bring down fresh mandates. He is asking you to cry, "Jesus, help us to be a people who would know the times and seasons and bring down revelation and application that can start to break open territories with revival and a great harvest of souls."

The Power of Prophetic Intercession

We are living in a kairos hour in history right now, and it demands that we know the times and seasons we are living in today (not what the television, newspapers, and magazines are telling us!). Can we go into the counsel of the Lord and get the fresh strategies and war plans for today?

I want to share an important testimony with you. During the Gulf War, I kept seeing the same battles taking place on television. I started to get very frustrated and said, "Lord, I don't want just natural television. I want Your 'tell-a-vision.' I want to see what is really happening in the Heavens over the Middle East. Lord, what is on Your heart? There must be more information. I feel that we are shown bits and pieces of information, but Lord, what are You doing in the realm of the Spirit?"

On Sunday morning my pastor of a congregation of 3,000 told us to stand and pray for Israel. All of a sudden I heard the audible voice of the Lord saying, "Michael."

I asked, "Michael who?"

He said, "Michael, the Archangel."

Suddenly, I had an open vision of Michael fighting over Israel. I asked the Lord what he was doing. Instantly, I saw the Prince of Persia and Michael in a fierce battle.

The Lord continued, "The Prince of Persia is trying to pre-empt My timetable so that's why I've released Michael. The war will end in three days."

The Lord spoke again and He said, "Gabriel."

I asked, "Lord, what's Gabe doing?" Immediately, I saw Gabriel moving families and individuals so they wouldn't be harmed.

The next night, I was at a Baptist pastor's house and met a pastor from Israel. As I shook his hand I said, "I saw Michael over Israel. The war is going to end on the third day."

He said, "Michael is the Archangel over Israel." When the pastor was flying back to Israel on Purim, the war ended that very day, which was three days later.

You see, we must be willing to have our antennas up twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week. Ask the Lord strategic questions about your life, family, work, school, city, and world events. The Lord is raising up prophets in this hour--men and women who will go into the counsels of the Lord. Intercession, fasting, and worship accelerate the call of God on each of our lives. Are you available to go deeper into the war room of God?

Dressed for Battle

Below is an excerpt taken from my book, Master Potter (Master Potter--chapter "Dressed for Battle" (pp. 183-184) Destiny Image), which is an allegory about a young woman named Beloved, who is in heavy spiritual warfare and is being fit with the full armor of God. This is how the Holy Spirit, who is called, "Amazing Grace" in my book, is equipping her for battle:

"Beloved, fight for life! I'm here to help you. You don't wrestle against flesh and blood, Beloved, but against demonic principalities and powers."

The words of Amazing Grace impart hope and faith. She cries out, "I don't want to die! I want to live for Master Potter and my children!"

Turning to command the dark forces He declares, "She has resisted you. You must leave now!"

The enemy sullenly retreats for a moment and Amazing Grace walks her back to the path.

"Beloved, you're in heavy spiritual warfare and the enemy is trying to kill you, but you must always remember that Master Potter loves you, even in your weakness."

"But I keep messing up His plan for my life," says Beloved.

"Master Potter has a destiny for your life and the lives of your children. You are the only one who can thwart Master Potter's plan; the enemy cannot steal it from you unless you give up the fight. You must put on the whole armor of God to resist the fiery darts of the enemy."

As He speaks, ministering angels gather around to dress her for battle. A form-fitting bodice of golden mail is slipped over her torn dress. It has a delicate appearance but it takes on an invincible power as the breastplate is strapped on.

Then they place a silver crown of salvation upon her bruised head to protect her mind from the lies of the enemy. A golden belt of truth is girded about her waist and leather sandals are placed on her feet and laced around her calves. They hand her a glorious shield of light with the word "Faith" emblazoned in scarlet.

Now dressed as a warrior bride, Amazing Grace holds out a sword to her with "The Word of God" engraved on its golden handle. He tells her, "As you speak the Word, this sword will be activated. You are armed and dangerous. You are my Beloved, no longer a victim but an overcomer."
