I heard, “You are My Warriors of Endurance, My Soldiers of Courage forged from the fires of adversity.”

“Beloved. Do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is come upon you to try you, as though some strange thing has happened to you.

In this circumstance you share in the sufferings of Christ so that My Glory will be revealed in you.

The enemy has attempted to put a target on your back because you are a threat to the kingdom of darkness. But fear not, My Child. Almighty God stands with you.

I make you as bold as a Lion. You face your fear head on. You are one who will not back down. You do not give up. You have set your face like flint. You are My Strong and Courageous One.

This is the hardest of all things, Beloved, to learn to stand in spite of the opposition. Many are called but few are chosen. But you are My Chosen. You are My Soldiers of Endurance.

Though the enemy goes about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, your LORD stands by you and strengthens you. And I will rescue you from EVERY evil action and bring you safely into My Heavenly Kingdom.

Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage, My Warrior; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for The LORD your God is with you wherever you go.

For I AM He who delivers you from the hand of the enemy and I WILL NOT forsake you in your time of need but MY GLORY shall BURST FORTH upon the scene and many shall be astonished and marvel and know that I AM God and there is no other.

For all of creation is waiting in eager expectation for the revelation of My Sons and Daughters. Now is your time, Beloved.

The memory of the hardships and suffering shall fade away in the Marvelous Light of My Glory coming upon you and being revealed in you and you shall be glad with exceeding joy.

Behold, I AM coming soon, and My Reward is with Me.”
