Stand and Withstand!
For days now, morning by morning, as the one whose love never fails has been saying to me, “Go back and review the Plan I have shown you over the last 6 months and you will understand the great separation that has taken place among the called out ones.”
It has been a time of testing, trying, shaking and breaking to watch and see those who are still STANDING and are willing to WITHSTAND in the midst of contention, deceptive witchcraft that is attempting to destroy the world.
“I say to those who are waiting and listening, I AM calling you to work with Me. As you open your mouth and use your authority, you will begin to see the Angel Armies surrounding you and you will know I have clothed you with garments of victory.
A new resolution is coming down from Heaven in this crucial Hour of Reformation. As you take up the Fight for Freedom, hold your ground, for the great shaking, shifting, and showdown time is releasing Heaven’s New Resolution to arrest the witchcraft and demolish the spirit of Leviathan that is hard at work to twist truth and create chaos,” says The LORD.
“I AM the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last and I shall carry out My Word for the Nations of the world.
Beloved, write this Word on the tablet of your heart, “The Truth is the whole Truth and nothing but the Truth or it is not the Truth at all.
Never forget, I AM the great I AM. I AM The Way, The Truth, and The Life. The Truth will stand when all else fails.”
But I say to you, “Stand firm, stand true, and withstand all for I have instructed you in My WORD,” (Ephesians 6:10-14).
“Put on the whole Armour of God, that ye may be able to STAND AGAINST the wiles of the devil. For you wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore!
When you stand or take a stand, beloved, you are taking a position that you are prepared for and well able to HOLD.
When you WITHSTAND, you are resisting and HOLDING OUT against something and reinforcing your STAND.
There is a time to STAND and not run for we are firmly taking a FAITH stand established by the power of the BLOOD OF JESUS and NO weapon formed against us can win.
Even as the enemy challenges your faith by continuing to send fiery darts of deception, knowing that he has no legal right and was defeated at Calvary.
You are the mighty victor! So, beloved, I AM challenging you this day to rise up and call his bluff! You are marked with the blood of the lamb and your shield of faith is more than enough!
I say to you again, the enemy may huff and puff but he cannot blow MY HOUSE down,” says The LORD of all.
I have often found that The LORD has to shake up our perspectives and give understanding to our true foundations. He shakes us to our foundations to free us of things that have bound us and also and push the reset button as He aligns us with His Truth:
“For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ”. 1 Corinthians 3:11.
The enemy may send pain or loss into your life, but The LORD will not allow you to be broken if you are standing on the true foundation of Jesus Christ.
I heard an intercessor once say to me, “HE is the legs that I stand on….”
NOW IS THE HOUR when we are set apart with a new direction. He is lifting us up higher to see from His Vantage Point and have the advantage.
Without His Perspective, we are just beating the air, going nowhere.
The Word of God plainly says,
“I have given you AUTHORITY to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome ALL the power of the enemy: nothing will harm you,” Luke 10:19.
So what part of ALL do we fail to understand?
He says what HE means and HE means what HE says.
This truth is the very foundation of our faith. HE is all POWER and we have HIS GOD given AUTHORITY.
NOTHING means just that: NO THING!
This moment of time in our land, I hear The LORD say, “Restoration is needed at the foundation level for America. It is time to rebuild, restore and replenish all that is needed. You are well able to rebuild the walls of the heart of this country.”
The WORD of GOD is known as The Sword of The Spirit. In Ephesians 6 we are told to be watchful and persevere as we pray and make supplication.
We must submit ourselves unto The LORD, close every door to sin, rebellion, disobedience and FEAR. We must let His Mind be in us as we speak and pray His word in FAITH BELIEVING for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but MIGHTY.
Our God-given AUTHORITY is key. We must be properly aligned with God and His established system of His Authority as He has spoken to us in Ephesians 6 as I have spelled out previously.
It states that we wrestle with principalities and powers. It is not wise to confront these wicked powers in the Second heaven unless The LORD himself directs you to do so. Stay within your area of anointing and God given authority.
Use Your Authority With Holy Boldness
There is great power in AGREEMENT as we come together in prayer AS ONE. We are not lone warriors. His Word says,
“Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven. Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven,” Matthew 18:18-19.
This is your sure Word etched in stone.
I give you fair warning that as we Pray the Power of Agreement, we must guard our hearts against division, unforgiveness, and strife that will nullify our Power of Agreement.
I have prayed with many who desire GOD’S Will, but seem uncertain as to what that means.
I would exhort you to dig into The Word of God in each time of prayer to find ‘for this is The Will of God’ and pray accordingly.
There is much to be said about His Will. It is truly essential to discern what His Will is. Let me be clear lest we fall into double-mindedness as in the first chapter of James.
Check out the scriptures in Colossians 1:9-10, Romans 8:28-29 to name a few.
“For this reason we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding; that you may walk worthy of The LORD, fully pleasing Him, being fruitful in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God,” Colossians 1:9-10.
“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren,” Romans 8:28-29.
Simply put, Pray what God wants to happen and you will see results!
I was given this Word several months ago and I am now reminded of it again.
“Know that you know that you know that I made you in My Image, and I hid Heaven in your hearts. Indeed I have My Hand prints upon you. You are marked by Me as My Representative. You are an Ambassador of Hope,” says The Father.
“Even as darkness continues, the brightness of My Light will dispel the darkness for all who Arise and move forward onto the Path of Life.
I have gone before you and prepared the way for you are carrying My heart and the light of My Glory” says The LORD.
“I AM taking you beyond the mundane into the ordained. This very hour of deception shall become your hour of deep perception. Indeed My Might Warrior Bride shall walk with heads held high and display My fearless Power in this hour.”
Just as The LORD spoke to me in a word given on June 12, 2020 in HKP “The End of Your Road”,
The LORD is saying, “Never retreat, never turn back for I AM with you.
The fiercer the battle and the stronger the intimidation, the more you shall be filled with courage to stand.
For I AM the strength of your heart and you shall prevail without fail. I AM only bringing this to your remembrance today, for you must never forget — I AM Who My Names say I AM.
I change not.”

My mighty warriors are rising up to the call to fight the good fight of FAITH. Many blessing dear sister.
