AN EXTREMELY HIGH LEVEL OF SPIRITUAL ACTIVITY IN THE HEAVENLIES RIGHT NOW! --- and HOW TO PRAY FOR PROTECTION

------------------------------------------------------

By Steve Shultz, THE ELIJAH LIST Steve@elijahlist.com

Right, now, you should expect to receive more than the average number of emails--as things are very active in the Spirit in these weeks.

Something is up.

The Church knows it.

And the World knows it.

Our reaction is to be one of NO FEAR and NO ANXIETY--but a simple trust and faith in the Lord.

=======================================================

MILITARY GEAR ON -- SWORDS DRAWN--- THE BATTLE UNDER WAY!

=======================================================

However, we are to have our military gear on and our swords drawn--as we are IN the battle. In one very real sense, the "Battle is the Lord's" In another sense, we are to "fight the fight of faith!" (I Tim. 6:12). Both are true--as with many things in Scripture. Our main fight is for the souls of men, including the souls of our own enemies.

This season of time feels very much like what was written in Frank Peretti's books, "This Present Darkness" and "Piercing the Darkness." If you haven't read them, they will increase your desire to battle in prayer. When we pray, we, in a real sense, give God "permission" to act on our behalf. He doesn't NEED permission, you understand, for anything. But on the other hand, He tells us, "You have not because you ask not."

What Frank Peretti saw, as a prophet (in my opinion) was the reality of much of what truly goes on in the heavenlies--when people humble themselves and pray.

At this moment in time, Believers from around the world are doing battle for this nation, for Israel, and for THEIR nations. At the same time, Satan has his own army--and make no mistake about it... He is at war against God's people. He accomplishes his work through his army by having THEM pray to him, (Satan) to destroy those who serve THE Creator.

===============================================

DAILY ASK GOD TO DELIVER YOU FROM THE EVIL ONE

===============================================

This is why we must never let up. And as the prophets come forth and are seeing that this is a time to "war" in the Spirit, then in humility, we must confess our sins, walk in Holiness, trust in HIS Goodness, and ask DAILY to be delivered from the evil one. (Matt 6:13).

=================================

"I SAW SATAN FALLING FROM HEAVEN"

=================================

As we battle in all the ways above, we WILL find ourselves winning. We can even find ourselves COMPLETELY protected as happened with the Disciples (below) who were on the LORD'S mission. When they did and fought and ministered as they were instructed, Jesus told them "nothing shall injure you."

Luke 10:18-19 18 And He said to them, "I was watching Satan fall from heaven like lightning. 19 "Behold, I have given you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall injure you.

============================================

PRAYING FOR ANGELS-- PRAYING FOR PROTECTION

============================================

I have three children, ages 13, 17, and 20. From the time they were babies, we prayed with them and taught them to pray, "Lord, protect us, and send angels to be all around us.

Ps 34:7 "The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, and rescues them."

To this "day" we pray it every night as we retire. With each child, with each other, (my wife and myself)--we pray the same thing---"Lord, send your angels to protect us."

You can't even believe how many times we have different prophets walk up to us and say, "You guys have no idea how many angels are around you. You are simply surrounded by angels."

If you think that is a coincidence, then you think differently than I do.

At this time-- when the media (and even the church sometimes accidentally) causes fear as we speak of the things to come, I counsel you to do as we do...

1) Pray the Lord's prayer (at least privately) DAILY to be "delivered from the evil one."

2) Pray for a ton of angels to surround you. I do. Every day.

3) Then seek to walk in integrity as much as you can, so the enemy has little access to you.

We all get warfare. We are get injured from time to time in battle. All of us. But the Lord will be your covering---if you only ask Him to. Keep praying for protection for you and your loved ones, for this nation, for our infrastructures--for our President, for our military, for the Church.

God WILL honor your prayers of faith.

Ok?

Ok!!

Blessings to you,
