Current Battles

MELISSA—It would appear that we are currently in the midst of WW III, it just looks a little different in 2023 than it did in wars past.  Let me explain by breaking it down into battles currently happening. The Russia vs. Ukraine battle: Let me start by saying, I do believe it is a war zone over there and people’s lives are being greatly and horrendously affected.  Many still seem to be wondering as to why this is happening.  War is fueled and affected by what is happening in other dimensions and there are powers and principalities that are stirred up and causing uproars.  People are pawns of these spiritual uproars and that is why the truth is not easy to find.  I say all of this to remind the sons and daughters of God that it is of utmost importance to be led by the Holy Spirit when praying over this situation.  Only He knows the hearts of men and what is truly going on. (As she mentioned in the paragraph above, Melissa will share thoughts on battles that are currently happening in her next few posts.)

(Melissa will be speaking at DREAMS VISIONS PROPHECY. DVP2023 will be September 8-10, 2023 at Grace Church Willis,TX. For all information go to this link: martygabler.com/dvp2023/)


That Stillness of Heart

Kathy—When Jesus said, “My peace I give unto you,” He was not telling His disciples they would never be troubled, but He was giving them His power to be unshaken by it.  That stillness of heart and mind is not a matter of our determination but rather a matter of His faithfulness.  It’s His gift to us and it is a powerful shield in the face of opposition.  Father has not changed His mind nor His good plans because of conflicts.  So, we are watching to see a God outcome where His goodness prevails.  Luk 2:14–“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.”


Soul-Conflicts

Kathy — Soul-conflicts cause ulcers rather than faith. An “ulcer of the soul” is inflammation like agitation, offense, irritation, anger, fear, etc. A wound of the soul is from our history or experience. Neither of those is the starting place for effectual prayer because “ulcers” and wounds can keep us from seeing from God’s perspective. A timely example is that it cripples our faith to pray for our nation if we think God will not interrupt hell’s assignments against our nation. Since 2021 is part of our watch, we can anticipate God’s intervention in our nation this year as we pray and neutralize contradictions that influence daily.


Untethered

Kathy — Forgiveness untethers us so our lives do not revolve around our conflicts.
