War Cry! There Are 'Skirmishers' Among Us!

     The war or warfare between light and darkness of all generations is coming to its climax. Satan and all that he has is mounting up both in heaven and on earth in preparation to implement an all-out effort to overthrow God and everything to do with God once again. We have to realize that it is God who is being threatened and accused, that it is God who is being spoken against and blasphemed. Also, that it is God who will answer. The battle is His, not ours. Like King David's army years ago we are to seek out, to know and to obey the Lord's instructions. It's also a spiritual warfare. In realizing this the enemy will be defeated every time!
   Across America and around the world men are being called like Gideon to raise up a mighty 300 for the Lord. Jesus is raising up His own army in these last days. Men twenty years of age and older who will separate themselves unto the Lord in fasting and prayer. Men whose weapons are not carnal, but mighty to the pulling down of strongholds. The 'shot heard round the world' has already been fired. Search the web: 'The Call, Nashville, 7 -7- 07'.
   Now, realizing that we are at war and that the lines of our warfare have already been drawn, let's get a 'warfare' mentality or awareness. We can no longer just go about our daily lives as though nothing is happening. It will come to our door and we will be faced with it. Actually, it is already here and many are not realizing it. That's what this word is dealing with: the 'skirmishers' among us.
   Open Heaven and every other forum, website, people or place that names the name of Christ our Lord is under attack! Open Heaven is international. It is a very big and a very strong 'camp' for God. Praise God for it. We need to realize that we are under attack. War has come, spiritual warfare is here already and a literal physical warfare isn't that far away. It's no longer a thing about 'I believe this', or 'I believe that'. Either we believe or we don't and we will be forced to take a stand one way or another. It's already happening! The 'grey areas', the 'middle ground', the 'fence-straddling' and the 'lukewarm-ness is over. It's time to know our God and to stand firm in Him. Parlor speeches and 'fluff' won't get it anymore.
   When major forces begin to assemble along battle lines many times they send out 'spoilers' or 'skirmishers'. An enemy ‘skirmisher’ is someone that does everything to create setbacks, trouble and destruction in the 'line of march(the direction the Lord is leading in) and to infiltrate the ‘camp’. In the 'camp' of the Lord(places like Open Heaven) they will come against God in every way either openly or subtly. Their job is to keep things in ‘disarray’ while the opposing forces attempt to assemble and to establish strategic and strong positions.
     The stronger ones go about to do anything they can do to break down or to confuse truths and other strongholds, such as the Bible, the Holy Spirit, prophecy or unity. They go after ‘leaders’, to draw them out for 'ambush', to accuse them, to condemn them, to discredit them. They lay stumbling blocks and concentrate their efforts also upon the young, the old or weak. They attempt to infiltrate every part of the camp and to overthrow faith by any means. They attack the very foundations of God and Christ to see who will speak against it or who will waver or fall in their beliefs and knowledge of God and Christ. They don’t care about anyone but themselves and what they are doing. So, don't try to 'convert' them. Though they present themselves and what they have going on as godly, God is not in them!
     The lesser ones aren't very confrontational, but go about to make much of nothing utilizing a lot of the usual arguments or philosophies They throw up a 'smoke cloud' of 'words' that are meaningless or are hard to understand causing distractions and detours for true believers to be carried away with so that they won't be looking at or concentrating on things that really matter.
     So, beware of who and what you may be approached by or 'fall' for! Stay in the Spirit! Be prepared to recognize these and to stand upon what you know to be sure foundations and don’t let anyone or anything ‘shake’ that up or ‘rattle’ your thinking.
     The ‘skirmishers’ are very good at what they do. They are very seductive, misleading and lying spirits. They are experienced in manipulation and maneuvering discussion. Any entering into of things with them is a trap. They will attempt to ‘snare’ us in any way possible. Their ‘snares’ have been carefully and skillfully prepared. Don’t get entangled in them for once you do there is no way out! Once again it’s time for us to really get serious about God! Again, there's no 'middle-ground', only 'high ground! We are under attack and this is just the first little beginnings! The real battles are yet to come.
     Others are sounding the 'alarm' well. Heed these alarms. Prove all 'words' including this one. Measure all things by the measure of Christ alone. Bigger, much bigger things are coming. If the enemy can keep us off-guard and distracted, detoured or confused, he has an advantage! The Lord has been trying to get us 'fully awake' for some time. It isn't easy. There's a lot to consider and a lot to realize. Jesus is revealing, making all things known, but it's up to us to put forth the effort, to do whatever it takes for us to see and to know as well as to keep our eyes solely upon Jesus at all times, day and night. Stop looking at the world. Jesus has already been there. He's leading. To look at the world and to get caught up in what is going on there is to drop behind or to lose your way altogether.
     I am not trying to point a finger nor be dramatic nor to cause any reaction other than soberness and awareness. It's time to be sober and aware. The enemy is already at work among us. It's time to draw the line and to take a stand.

     It's a privilege to be a part of Open Heaven and to share and to receive what others share. May the love of God surround us all and keep us both now and in all that is ahead. God Bless You All.
