God was speaking to me about His people having no rest and running around frantically wondering what to do in these hours of darkness.  Then he spoke the following.

You need to sit down and relax. Enjoy the comfort of sitting at My feet. I am on the move, and I am not going to stop. I have been flexing My muscles for a decade, and now the fight is on. The fight for the harvest. The fight for the prodigals. The fight for marriages, and especially the fight for the children.

There is no more time for whining; All must step up to the plate and take their rightful places on the front line to demolish all darkness. The darkness cannot overtake those who are determined to win.

Whose battle is this anyway? The battle is the Lords! Therefore, it is already won. Step up and cause the world to see how great your heavenly Father is. Take a stance for righteousness and never waver.

Yes, we are in a battle, but you can still have victory parties, for victory is all around you. Allow Me to open your spiritual eyes and see as I see.

The scripture that states “the battle belongs to the LORD” is found in 1 Samuel 17:  47. It emphasizes that victory is not achieved through human strength or weapons, but through divine intervention.

I SAMUEL 17:  47 International Standard Version

and this whole congregation will know that the LORD does not deliver by sword or spear. Indeed, the battle is the LORD’s and he will give you into our hands.

II CHRONICLES 32:  6 – 8  He appointed military officers over the people and assembled them before him in the square at the city gate and encouraged them with these words: 7 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria and the vast army with him, for there is a greater power with us than with him. 8 With him is only the arm of flesh, but with us is the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people gained confidence from what Hezekiah the king of Judah said.
