You Will Never Be Forsaken!
I saw a group of Warriors dressed in Armor of Light and holding up shields and swords.
They are God’s intercessors. They were gathered in a huge circle, facing outward.
The enemy was launching attacks, shooting fiery arrows at them. But they had their shields lifted up together, forming a barrier that the arrows could not penetrate.
In the middle of the circle were injured people. Some with physical sicknesses and diseases. Some with wounds of the heart. Some so weary and without hope that they could not even lift their heads.
They too were once warriors, but the enemy had worn them out over time. There were also future warriors, those who had not been saved yet. Their salvation was sure because of the tears of the saints.
I saw JESUS there with them. He was pouring healing oil over each one. He was wearing a white robe, and each wounded warrior was also wearing a white robe. They wore robes of HIS Righteousness, garments of His salvation.
Jesus was picking each one up, hugging them, imparting strength to them, and placing them back on their feet. They soon rejoined the battle.
Be encouraged, Child of God. You will never be forsaken. You are His Beloved, His intercessors, His Warriors whom the enemy fears.
Father is raising up His mighty army and none shall stop it. Fear not, Mighty Warrior. The LORD is with you. Our Father shall cause your enemies who rise up against you to be defeated before you; they will come out against you one way and will flee before you seven ways.
Through death, Jesus rendered POWERLESS him who had the power of death, that is the devil, and you have been FREED from the slavery of fear. He shall protect His own and those you intercede for! “These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; Beloved, I have overcome the world.”
“The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light,” Romans 13:12.
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the LORD, and in the power of His might,” Ephesians 6:10.
“Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm,” Ephesians 6:11.
“Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, that through death He might render powerless him who had the power of death, that is, the devil, and might free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives,” Hebrews 2:14-15.

I use to think the Lord was disappointed because I was worn out in the battle, I thought He wasn’t protecting me. I know now, it is a battle. We are not yet in Heaven. He does restore us, and always,always protects us.
