THE CLOSER WE COME TO HIS RETURN, THE MORE FURIOUS THE ENEMY ATTACKS
Therefore, take unto you the whole armour of God...and stand against Him!
Ephesians 6:11-18
I am led to share a dream, or a night vision as I call it, when it is spiritual in nature. My younger daughter has experienced several prophetic dreams/night visions over the years, and it is my prayer that this one would be helpful to those who are also finding themselves attacked or accused by the enemy, those who have already chosen Yahushua, Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, but who are struggling with the spirits of attachment-- fear, doubt, anxiety, lack, uncertainty, unworthiness, i.e. basically any spirit that goes against the truth of who we are in Christ.
My daughter has struggled over the last couple of years feeling that God has not been hearing her prayers and that she is not important enough to matter in many ways. She tends to be anxious over the smallest of things and has great fear of uncertainty. I believe this is why she is being targeted. When the enemy accuses us of being unworthy, or attacks us with condemnations that create doubt, fear, anxiety, etc... we can either choose to agree with the accusation or reject the accusation and rebuke the enemy by binding his words and casting him out. It is very subtle and often we make comments and agree even without realizing that we are agreeing with an accusation or a suggestion from the enemy. When we do agree, we give the enemy legal right to enter our life and that allows him to harass us and establish a foothold, and in many cases a stronghold. This is what I believe has happened with my daughter.
If we know the Word, however, and the enemy's tactics-- that he will always accuse us, and often when we are at our weakest, then we can stand in the truth and the authority that we have been given as children of God, and immediately and confidently rebuke him by refusing to accept his accusation(s), binding them in the name of Jesus Christ and casting them out into outer darkness. This is very important. It does not matter if you have been a Christian for many years or have just recently accepted Christ as your Savior. The darkness is ever increasing and the battle in the spirit is intensifying more than ever before. We must keep the full armor of God on and tightened at all times.
If we believe that we may have agreed with an accusation from the enemy, then we need to ask the Holy Spirit to bring it to the light, reject and bind the accusation(s) in Jesus's Holy name, ask Him for forgiveness and pray that the breach in the wall of protection around us is sealed. Claim victory over whatever is oppressing you, e.g. unworthiness, fear, doubt, anxiety, depression, etc... and believe and walk in the truth that Jesus came to set the captives free. We must walk in His light and accept His truth.
I am a firm believer that nothing is coincidence, and feel part of the reason that this has occurred with my daughter is because we as a family have stepped up our spiritual warfare, praying and speaking boldly in opposition to the enemy and all of his plans against us, His believers, asking Father to cancel any and all requests satan has made against us as a family and all believers. After getting much more aggressive in this area, my daughter had this terrifying experience, but I pray this has made her aware of how easily satan can and will enter through a breach in the wall, through these familiar spirits, and she as well as all of us need to heed and grow from the message that Father has placed before us.
DREAM/NIGHT VISION:
My daughter and our family were in a dark movie theater. The movie playing was about a marching band. There were very few people in the theater at the time. We all saw a young girl get out of her seat and begin walking along the walls of the theater, and my daughter noticed that she was being lured away from the movie and became increasingly agitated. She then changed and her appearance transformed into something ugly, horrifying, and demonic. As the movie continued, more and more dark entities started to appear in the theater and my daughter became increasingly alarmed, but the rest of the family did not seem concerned.
The scene then turned into a magnificently decorated banquet table adorned with gold and each plate beautifully arranged with the best food. The atmosphere was super-charged with love and beauty, peace and amazing colors, and all of our family and many others were seated around the table, while Jesus walked among us getting ready to partake of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Everyone's plate was full, except my daughter's whose plate was empty. A woman sitting directly across from her pointed at her and said, ' I haven't seen you here before. You don't belong here.'
She then found herself back in the theater crying and begged all of us to leave, although we were all oblivious to what my daughter had been experiencing. We were enjoying listening to Jesus and celebrating in the spirit, but she had left the feast already. I said, don't worry Jesus is here, but she could not see Him. We decided to leave together, and as we headed toward the lobby, we saw many people displaying demonic activity and acting in very bizarre ways, as if they were completely possessed. Everyone in our family except my daughter were still unaffected by what she was experiencing, because our eyes were on Jesus.
A force or the darkness then dragged her into a side room. Although she wanted to leave as quickly as possible, she felt as if she was helpless and had no choice. In the side room, a man stood in front of a large cauldron full of boiling water. The man told my daughter that she would have to help him, and he began to climb into the pot, even though his soul was fighting against the evil in the room that was possessing his body. My daughter also could not move, because the darkness had paralyzed her. The man switched from good to evil as he was trying to escape. The force then moved her hand to a lever and she still had no choice but to pull it. As the man was lowering himself into the pot she could see a column of light or good inside of him. Before he was consumed totally by the evil, he told her to put a mask on to keep her from becoming like all the others who were being consumed by the darkness.
As she pulled the lever, black liquid poured through a pipe of sorts and in a snake like manner swirled around the pot, although it did not mix with it. It coiled all through the man and entered in through his mouth until he was completely over taken. She realized that evil had just found another host. The man then laughed hysterically because evil had won and my daughter found herself suddenly freed and began to run towards the rest of the family who was approaching a stair case. She tripped and woke up.
End of dream/night vision.
There are several things the Holy Spirit revealed to me as soon as she told me about this experience.
The theater represents the world and the assignment we believers have been given for the Kingdom. We are lights in a dark place, and the movie about the marching band was our training and marching orders for these last days. Jesus appeared and was seen by all members of our family, except my daughter, who is having a hard time not believing the lies of the accuser. Everyone but my daughter in our group represents the family of believers who know who they are in Christ and have their hearts and eyes completely focused on Jesus, without being distracted by the world and what is going on around us. We cannot take our focus off of Jesus, not in this late hour.
The young girl who was being lured away represents those who are overly influenced by the world, allowing sin to remain in their lives, thus opening a breach for the enemy to gain a foothold. The Holy Spirit revealed that in these end times, many people will be lured and fall away from holiness, righteousness and Godly living. Many are even the luke-warm church, living a life full of compromise and idolatry for the things of this world.
*When my daughter was turned away from the banquet table, she had believed the lies of the enemy that she was not worthy to be there and therefore ran away from Jesus instead of running to Him. She had been present and seated, but as she looked at her plate, she saw it as empty. The woman represented my daughters fears and beliefs of lack of worthiness.
*Being lured into a dark room, even though she really didn't want to go, represents the feeling of hopelessness that we all have experienced at one point or another in our lives, when we believed the enemy's lie that there was no other option.
*The scene of watching the man descend into the black boiling liquid is what is happening to millions and millions of souls as they descend further and further into unholy and sinful living until they become completely consumed and submerged. At that point, the enemy has control over them and manipulates them to serve only his purposes. My daughter could not pull her hand away from the lever because of the familiar spirits at work in her life, causing her to accept the lie that she had no choice. She felt powerless to stop the evil, even though in her heart she knows that she belongs to the King.
Father has given me the understanding and asks all believers to take this vision and its messages very seriously. The darkness that is overcoming this earth is powerful and many who are not grounded in the Word and intimate with God will be deceived and swept away. Do not underestimate the powers of the enemy. We are to keep the full armor of God on 24 hours a day, never removing it, and keeping it tightened so that we are ready to respond in truth and authority when the enemy attacks. He will never stop accusing us until he is finally destroyed, but we know who we are-- the children of a living God who has given us all power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and bind the enemy in His Holy name. The enemy must flee at the name of Jesus Christ, Yahushua, and our words and prayers are powerful indeed. Let this motivate us to step up the warfare, as we are now in the battle of a lifetime. Never forget that we are more than conquerors in Jesus, but the battle is in our minds and the power to overcome is in our hearts and in our words.
Search out the scripture(s) to know the truth and the promises that we are to walk in. Pray powerfully in the spirit. Cover your families and loved ones constantly with the blood of Jesus. Be alert and sober minded, diligent and focused. Always guard your hearts and minds to make sure that you do not agree with the enemy's accusation(s). There is always a lesson in what Father allows in our lives, and more revelation is revealed, the more you seek Him in all things.
Love and shalom,
Julie
Ephesians 6:10-18King James Version (KJV)
10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
11 Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
12 For
we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities,
against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world,
against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13 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.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
18 Praying
always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching
thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
Luke 10:18-20King James Version (KJV)
18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven.
19 Behold,
I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all
the power of the enemy: and nothing shall by any means hurt you.
20 Notwithstanding
in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather
rejoice, because your names are written in heaven.
