Right now, the United States of America is in an intense battle between good and evil. There are so many tactics of the devil out in the open for those with spiritual discernment to see. Racial tensions, division, etc. are all symptoms of a deeper issue: the human heart. You see, when someone treats you terribly for whatever reason, we must not see the symptom as the problem. The symptom is just the manifestation of the underlying problem. There are truly racist people out there. Now, their root issue is not racism. Their root issue is they hate people. They are not filled with God’s love and they need their heart transformed.
All of this to say, God has a plan for those who are devoted to living a life of love and devoted to deliver the truth to people, plain and simple. That’s the goal. Give people Jesus the best we can and trust the power of the Holy Spirit to change hearts. The devil is doing everything he can to stop the revival & harvest of souls that will be won in these last days. It’s why we see all this craziness. If he can’t win, then the devil will just sow chaos instead.
But as children of God, we are set apart to do great and marvelous things in the name of Jesus Christ. Inviting the Holy Spirit and the accompanying gifts to operate in your life will result in so many blessings, it will be hard to keep track of.
I received a set of prophetic words on June 2nd and June 3rd that encapsulates what we need to be focusing on as the Body of Christ in this season. Below is what God showed me as His response to to the hand the devil has played here so far in 2020:
-
- [1] “In these last days, God is raising up an army of people with an undivided heart unto Him, who will pull people out of the fire and into His Glorious Light (Jesus Christ).”
- [2] “That’s what this nation and the world need. We are going to see unity in the Body of Christ like never before. New partnerships that will bring about a GREAT REVIVAL like never before, in Jesus name. We are already starting to see it even now. The enemy is desperate, knowing he can’t stop it. This is his LAST DITCH EFFORT. But America SHALL BE SAVED!”
The scripture reference for this word is Jude 1, the entire chapter. However, verses 17 through 22 are truly prophetic about the current time we live in today:
- “17 But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. 18 They said to you, “In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” 19 It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. 20 But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. 22 And have mercy on those who doubt; 23 save others by snatching them out of the fire; to others show mercy with fear, hating even the garment stained by the flesh.”
This passage of scripture is spot on. There is a distinction between what the wicked are doing (causing division) and what the children of God are doing (seeking the lost and winning soul). And as we near the return of Christ the distinction will become even more apparent.
Additionally, new partnerships and revival are exciting prospects. However, they are not going to happen on their own. If you feel called by God to impact your generation, do it. God doesn’t want you delay in doing what He has put on your heart. As it says in Zechariah 4:10, “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin…” Also, when you remain faithful in all that God has commanded, your latter end will greatly increase as you stay faithful every step of the way.

Now more than ever, we need to step up and be the Church that Jesus is proud of and ready to return for. Don’t lose heart with what is going on around you. Take inventory of who lives inside you and the power given for you to do great and marvelous things in the name of Jesus.
The fight is not over and be sure to run the race according to God’s Will in His Word, as to not be disqualified. Finish strong and the reward in this life and the next will be great!
