A Word through William C. Yount Hagerstown, Maryland Bill's email: blowtheshofar@juno.com

I saw in the Spirit a snake being released from the kingdom of darkness with an assignment to strike at the head of the Body of Christ. This snake was a "spiritual" SPITTING COBRA whose ability enables it to aim and spit its blinding venom with extreme accuracy into the eyes of its victim. I saw it in its poised striking position as it focused on the eyes of the Body of Christ.

THE SERPENT KNOWS THAT "WITHOUT A VISION" THE PEOPLE PERISH

I sense the eyes represented those in leadership that are used strongly in the prophetic that is gifted to see and give vision to the rest of the Body of Christ. The hellish purpose was to destroy the eyesight and the heavenly vision that the Prophets were receiving. This serpent knew too well the scripture that "Without a Vision, the People Perish." One strike and the eyes would become permanently damaged.

I sense the Lord saying, "Many of my chosen prophets are even now being mesmerized by just the appearance of this snake. For this snake has a deceitful beauty that appeals to the eyes that prohibit the eyes from blinking. Little does the Body of Christ realize that their momentary staring at their unknown enemy is about to become their downfall."

LUST IS BEING THROWN AT GOD'S PROPHETS

I sensed this "SPITTING COBRA" represented a great serpent of "LUST" that had not yet been taken out of the arsenal bag of Satan that was reserved for this last hour. It was like it was the enemy's last deadliest missile that would be launched against the head of the church. It would be a real "Spit in the Face of God" whose image he sees in us. He was going for the "Apple of God's Eye" in this final hour. This serpent represented the "Lust of the Eyes" resulting in the "Lust of the Flesh", especially in the area of sexual impurity to turn its eyes inward to satisfy its own lusts and become blinded to the needs of others and God's vision to reach the world.

GOD DOES HAVE A REMEDY

In closing I saw God's remedy to thwart this last deadly assault.

I heard the Lord say, "My Body this hour must be anointed with fresh oil, starting from the crown of their head to the soles of its feet!

The head of My Body must be covered in this "day of battle. The eyes must be anointed with heavenly eye salve." This holy anointing can only come as the whole Body begins to pray and lift up their head. (leadership) I then saw the arms of the Body being raised up, lifting up its head (leadership) and the arms lifted up the hands to cover the eyes momentarily releasing an anointing upon the head and a fresh eye salve upon the eyes. It was as though these hands were covering and hiding the prophets for a season to refocus from the distraction of the enemy. During this time the Prophets seemingly in hiding-- began to regroup and come together with clearer vision and were able to communicate vision to the head (Apostles and other leadership.) The head was finally becoming of one mind and one accord! (Look out Devil!)

THE ANOINTING FLOWS FROM THE HEAD

This anointing then kept flowing down from the head all over the Body even down to its little toes! And then I saw the most extra-ordinary thing happen. A command was given from Heaven to the head of the Body of Christ - "Crush Satan Under Your Feet!"

This command went straight down through the Body of Christ. As the foot heard the command, even the little toe received it. The foot stepped on that serpent, but it was using only its little toe - crushing the enemy! And with its minute toe-nail, it severed the head off of that snake!

GO AHEAD AND SHOUT! -- I JUST DID!
