It's apparent to me that the Lord has different factions doing different things, according to the faith of each. I never wrote everyone should just lay down and be passively submissive. When the Lord had me make and post the video about Obama - Yes We Can = Thank You Satan, that was active, aggressive action. To expose the wicked predatory behaviors, imagery and sorceries is active warfare. I resist Satan in whatever field of operations I perceive, as the Lord reveals it and according to my faith. <br /><br />Most would argue, but I believe a prophecy picturing a militant op may be seen in the Bible when the Lord was preparing to go to Gethsemane on the 13th day of the first month. <br /><br />Luke 22<br />35 And He said to them, “When I sent you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They said, “No, nothing.” 36 And He said to them, “But now, whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and whoever has no sword is to sell his coat and buy one. 37 For I tell you that this which is written must be fulfilled in Me, ‘And He was numbered with transgressors’; for that which refers to Me has its fulfillment.” 38 They said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”<br /><br />This is appointed for a very specific time, which is not yet, but there is in this a principle that applies today. You see here that the swords were required to fulfill prophecy. It was not just so we could check the box for - "yup, that Old Testament Prophecy was fulfilled." Both look to what is yet future and there's a lesson in it for us. You have to identify those with swords as the transgressors. There's no other way to see that. There will be those who go with Christ in that day who will have no money belt, bag or sword. That is the time and people the greater work The Open Scroll is for. There are plenty of ministers who encourage equipping with provisions of all kinds, but that's not the "Bride prep." <br /><br />Matthew 26<br />51 And behold, one of those who were with Jesus reached and drew out his sword, and struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his ear. 52 Then Jesus *said to him, “Put your sword back into its place; for all those who take up the sword shall perish by the sword. 53 Or do you think that I cannot appeal to My Father, and He will at once put at My disposal more than twelve legions of angels? 54 How then will the Scriptures be fulfilled, which say that it must happen this way?”<br /><br />Which way you will go, brother? This choice remains before you.<br /><br />Blessings in His Shalom,<br /><br />Bob Bob Schlenkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06889020206773728748noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9888300.post-1586495594462150492012-11-14T01:52:45.871-08:002012-11-14T01:52:45.871-08:00Thank you Bob.
