A Time for War
Updated: May 17
Word to The Ecclesia:
We are living in a New Era, and The Lord is speaking
“Now” words to His Bride, to His Ecclesia.
Sitting at the feet of The Lord, I heard Him say:
To everything there is season; a time for every purpose under heaven. (Ecclesiastes 3:1)
I make everything beautiful in its time![1]
The shift has occurred. The time for war is Now.[2]
Preparation is essential:
Blow the shofar, announcing, “It is time for war!”[5]
Declare the battle cry.[6]
Prepare the way. Clear a straight path[7] — a high-way[8] — on which I will lead My Army of Light to take back ground that has been forfeited to the enemy. This forfeiture is the result of My people’s passivity, unholy alliances, fleshly indulgences, timidity to stand for hard truth, and compromise with the world.
The enemy’s schemes through the ages… schemes of weaving unholiness, vanity, and corruption throughout the fabric of society — the family, the church, media, government, business, education, arts and entertainment — have led to him now sitting back and resting on his laurels, enjoying the show of evil and depravity that is overtaking My creation….
BUT… I am the Victor and I reign over ALL the earth, forever and ever!
The war starts at My Church. From there, the war will move outward throughout society. As the enemy pridefully “relaxes” and celebrates his successes, I am calling My Army of Light to a surprise attack that will take the enemy off guard, cutting him off at the knees and cutting off his supply lines. This starts within My Church.
For those in My Ecclesia who have chosen the high-way of holiness and surrender, they are being called out of The Ark, where I have been preparing them through intensive training on the battlefield of life. The intensity of the darkness has been so fierce that many have questioned whether they would make it through to the other side. I have allowed this, so that My elite forces would be fully trained, equipped, empowered, and anointed to march in My Army of Light, completely aligned and in sync with heaven’s battle plan strategies.
The Light that has been forged and established within My remnant elite forces has made them worthy to be My forerunners; anointed as My Beacons of Light to go into all the world. My glory is on them and nothing can harm them. Though deep darkness covers the earth… though the fig tree may have no blossoms and there may be no visible fruit on the vine… even still, My faithful elite have chosen to rejoice in Me, in the joy of their salvation. And I am faithful! I will be their strength and I will make their feet like the deer’s feet to walk on My high places — to march on My high-way![9] And they will Arise and Shine, to carry My Glory over all the earth.[10]
My elite remnant forces will engage with My warring heavenly angels in the War of The Era. Starting with My Church, My Light will illuminate every dark place there, and the revealed intruding darkness will be sent running in seven directions[11]. I am clearing out the darkness, in order to establish My true holy remnant Ecclesia.
My holy remnant will shine clearly and brightly for all the world to see Me, as they reflect My Light. Darkness will be forced out of its hiding and will be rolled back further and further and further. My ground, My territory, will be reclaimed, as holy and set apart to Me. As the enemy is pridefully boasting in his success of having infiltrated My Church and having contaminated, distorted, watered down, and twisted My truth, he will be ambushed by My Light that is carried by My Army of Light. Not only will My elite force take back all that has been stolen, but I will lead them down My high-way in the greatest plunder of enemy territory the world has ever seen.
Be encouraged faithful ones: The enemy’s current victory will be short lived. I reign over ALL of the earth and I am the ultimate Victor. Remember that whatever I do, it will be established forever. Nothing can be added to it and nothing taken away from it![12]
Prepare the way; make ready a people who are set apart for Me and for My purposes. Through My people readying themselves in holiness, surrender, and faithfulness, My holy high-way will be established on the earth. Over that high-way, I will pour out My mighty power to plow over the enemy’s obstacles, barricades, and strongholds; thus, transforming the earth into everything that I ordained and purposed it to be.
Make straight in the desert a high-way for your God! And I will overwhelm you with My faithful response. “Look among the nations and watch — Be utterly astounded! For I will work a work in your days which you would not believe, though it were told you.” (Habakkuk 1:5)
Now is the time for war; the time for ushering in every purpose under heaven. I will make everything, even war, beautiful in its time.

Powerful worship to stand in and declare over this “Time of War”:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
[1] See Ecclesiastes 3:11.
[2] See Ecclesiastes 3:8.
[3] Bells — In the Bible, bells signify holiness and entering into His holiness:
Exodus 28:33, 35 “And upon the hem [of the priests’ robes] you shall make pomegranates of blue, purple, and scarlet, all around its hem, and bells of gold between them all around….
And [the robe] shall be upon Aaron when he ministers, and the sound [of the bells] will be heard when he goes into the holy place before the Lord and when he comes out, that he may not die.”
Zechariah 14:20 “In that day "HOLINESS TO THE LORD" shall be engraved on the bells of the horses.”
[4] 1 Peter 1:16
[5] Shofar — When Israel engaged the enemy in battle, the priests and Levites would prepare the way by sounding the shofar:
Numbers 10:8-9 “And the sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets [shofar]. The trumpets shall be to you for a perpetual statute throughout your generations. And when you go to war in your land against the adversary who oppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, that you may be remembered before the Lord your God, and you shall be saved from your enemies.”
[6] Battle cry — “To sound a signal for war or march; to shout a war-cry or alarm of battle.” (Strong’s Concordance)
2 Chronicles 13:14b-15 (NIV) “The priests blew their trumpets and the men of Judah raised the battle cry. At the sound of their battle cry, God routed [their enemy] …. and God delivered [their enemy] into their hands.”
[7] Isaiah 40:3-5a “… Prepare the way of the LORD; Make straight in the desert A highway for our God. Every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill brought low. The crooked places shall be made straight and the rough places smooth. The glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together….”
Luke 1:17 [The angel’s foretelling to Zacharias about his future son, John the Baptist.] “He will also go before [Jesus] in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just, to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”
Matthew 3:1-3 “In those days, John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea, and saying, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!’ For this is he who was spoken of by the prophet Isaiah, saying: ‘The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord; make His paths straight.’”
[8] Highway – “a raised way” (Strong’s Concordance)
See Lance Wallnau teaching, “You are a Highway!” https://lancewallnau.com/highway/
[9] Habakkuk 3:17-19 “Though the fig tree may not blossom, Nor fruit be on the vines; Though the labor of the olive may fail, And the fields yield no food; Though the flock may be cut off from the fold, And there be no herd in the stalls — Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. The Lord God is my strength; He will make my feet like deer’s feet, And He will make me walk on my high hills.”
[10] See Isaiah 60:1-3.
[11] Deuteronomy 28:7 “The LORD will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.”
[12] See Ecclesiastes 3:14.
