David & Goliath Today

A Vision of the Present Cosmic Battle

Emailed to many from Perth, Western Australia, on 24th January 2009:

At a recent church meeting where many from different Christian congregations were gathered, a visiting pastor was leading. He asked a young local man named David to come and stand in the centre, as representative of all those under thirty, and lead us in prayer in tongues. This David did. The whole meeting was in unity, and, as we prayed, Jesus gave me a vision.

On my right, on a vast field cleared for battle, were legions of huge men, like the family of Goliath. These were warriors, wild eyed, immense in size, with faces like crags, muscles like boulders, legs like oak trees, hands the size of dinner plates and fingers like steel claws. Their clothing was full Bible times military dress as described in Ephesians 6. They were battle hardened. These are Satan’s forces today, demons on the earth, equipped and ready on their chosen battle field.

Across a narrow strip of land were a myriad of young men. No. Young men and young women together. These are the Lord’s army. Jesus’ chosen ones. The ones who have offered themselves. They were standing alert and bright eyed yet relaxed, dressed in the clothes of our own young generation; boardies, tees, jeans, sweats. Clothed with Christ. Each carried a slingshot and a few small stones; these were their weapons, the Words of God himself. Ready. Jesus. Jesus is the Word of God.

As I watched, a clear line appeared in the earth between the two armies. "Lord" I asked, "what is the line?" 

"That line represents the greatest advance Satan will ever make against humankind in all of history, see, his demons have almost reached that far. We will see greater advance but they cannot go beyond the bounds I have set, which you can see". As I continued to watch the Lord went on: “the demonic forces have never been better equipped. You can see no weapons in their hands. They will fight with every weapon from the present age:

* media power of Fairfax and Murdoch and other mammoth conglomerates
* behaviour examples set by celebrities and royalty
* radical attitudes and behaviours espoused in today’s music
* corruption of promiscuity, homosexuality, abortion and sexually transmitted diseases
* loss of purpose and death from drug use
* chemicals and additives in food and drink causing allergies and illnesses
* corporate, executive and government greed for wealth and power
* cultural demands for conformity and "political correctness".

In my spirit I knew that the final battles are now, they will continue long and hard. Many who were represented in this vision will die fighting, as many around the world are dying daily for Jesus and his gospel. My overwhelming emotion was one of gratitude and hope and awe; the church is rising up, Jesus is assembling his forces. Victory, already won in the heavens, is assured on the earth. We can rejoice, even as we commit everything for our Lord. Praise God, Father, Son and Spirit.

Amen.
