Discerning The Times
“Let Him Who Has Ears Hear!”
The purpose of this occasional feature in Moving with the Spirit Online is to communicate guidance that has been given from the Lord. After I have discerned that these may be genuine invitations from the Holy Spirit I will pass them on to you for your discernment, prayer and action.
This is a call to pray for the exposure and thwarting of the schemes of Satan intending terrorist attacks upon America through the demonic stronghold of Islamic Terrorism.
To learn more about how to do this I have provided the following short 10 Min. Video Clip:
The Role of the Intercessor in Penetrating the Demonic Cloaking
of Satan’s Intentions for Evil
In the short video I describe this better than I can write it but there follows a short summary of this concept that is so critical in high level intercession:
All demonic strongholds have different components such as unforgiveness, hatred, falsehoods, etc that provide the ground from which evil spirits operate. When a stronghold reaches a certain level of development it provides the means for the demonic in collusion with sinful human beings, to express their intentions.
In the case of Islamic Terrorism the stated aim of the Devil, learned through the self- acknowledgements of his human collaborators, is “death to America,” “death to Israel, “death to Jews and Christians.” These evil intentions are carried out by various means such as flying airplanes into the World Trade Centers or the use of cars loaded with explosives detonated in a crowded market in Bagdad, Iraq.
This stronghold, as well as the plans to carry out their purposes, are all shrouded in darkness that prevents their exposure. The role of the intercessor is to, as led by the Holy Spirit, pray that this demonic cloaking will be penetrated so that the evil plans may be exposed and stopped. In civilized society, those with the authority to stop the execution of the Satan’s plans through human means are the police, intelligence services and the military. But all these assets are useless unless they know what they are looking for. It is the role of the intercessors to pray for evil to be exposed, and for every citizen to have their eyes and ears open to communicate to those authorities what may be revealed.
The guidance that we are getting is that this is not to be a large scale 9/11-like attack but many smaller attacks against smaller targets intended to stir terror and fear in America.
Part of the guidance came in images of the use of small commuter airplanes that carry less then 50 people. The terrorists were throwing people out of these planes, some dead, some still alive over populated, peaceful areas to cause fear and chaos. There were also images of people putting on gas masks suggestive of some possible biological or chemical attacks.
The guidance also alerted us that those places normally considered safe are in danger. There may be special danger to churches and synagogues during the holiday seasons of Hanukkah and Christmas.
The guidance was also given that these attacks are being planned especially against the United States. I believe, however, that the United Kingdom, Israel and Russia are also vulnerable. Actually, any location in which Christmas and Hanukkah are celebrated must be vigilant even to the extent of being careful to lock both physical doors but also spiritual doors that may give opportunity to the Devil.
Another intercessor offered the following words from Scripture that also lead us in prayer. These words also confirm the guidance to pray for the exposure of these intentions of Satan.
Since this person shared with me this guidance I have been led to pray that God would expose hidden plots of the evil one. Ephesians 5:11 says, “Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness but rather expose them.”
I think that one of the Lord’s tools to expose these deeds of darkness is intercessory prayer. Some other scriptures that are helpful in praying along these lines:
Psalm 9:15 “The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug; their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.”
Psalm 140:1-2, 8 “Rescue me, O Lord, from evil men; protect me from men of violence, who devise evil plans in their hearts and stir up war every day….do not grant the wicked their desires, O Lord; do not let their plans succeed, or they will become proud.”
Daniel 2:22 “He (the Lord) reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what lies in darkness, and light dwells with him.”
Matthew 10:26 [Jesus speaking…] “So do not be afraid of them. There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known.”
May the Holy Spirit direct us in our intercession so that darkness is exposed and disabled while Jesus Christ, the Light of the world, is exalted and lifted up.
There follows the actual vision received by a member of the Dunamis Fellowship. This came without a feeling of fear, but rather a firm assurance that this is a gift from the Lord and intended for our protection.
(I have included this in case I missed something in my summary that the Holy Spirit may impress upon you as important. )
I was woken up at 3 am Wednesday (Dec.9th 2009) morning to pray against terrorism against America. On Thursday morning I started to call other intercessors and believers for discernment. The significance of this is this I am not normally called to pray against this.
In the vision/dream, the terrorist are strategizing now and we need to pray against it. They are not a “World Power” but are many, organized and strategic. This is not another 9/11 with big airplanes but strategic with small airplanes holding 30 – 40 people. They are punks, but still demonic agents nonetheless
They will use these small airplanes to strike terror and fear into the people. These planes will carry 30 – 40 people (perhaps commuter jets) and they will throw people out of airplanes over neighborhoods and populated areas. Some will be alive some will be dead. People being dropped over targeted cities and counties (spread out for more effect?) to cause chaos and appear much more powerful – again “power” seems to be a driving force of influence?
Pray against the radicalness of this action. Pray against this. The Lord says to pray for the angels to provide cover in the air, over the air, that the Lord Jesus and His precious blood covers the land. As in the days of old (Egypt), when the Isrealites were protected by the blood over the doorposts, so is the precious shed blood of our Lord Jesus protecting believers.
Then this – I was in a trailer or barracks building ( symbolic of a church or synagogue?). Looking out the window, I saw cars coming into the neighborhood with 3-4 terrorists in them. The terrorists will come 3-4 to a car into neighborhoods to impact and create terror and fear. Pray against hatred, revenge, fear, power seeking. Some they will kill, some they will terrorize.
There was a strong indication to “lock the doors” and be vigilant, but not afraid.
This will happen in different cities all over America, strategically planned and executed by the terrorists.
The vision then moved into a classroom setting with Brad (Long) and his wife Laura at the front teaching, saying “See I have told you this is what I was talking about! We will put on our gas masks – we will keep them on for 24 hours so we get used to them.”
Brad’s wife took her mask off and questioned Brad about keeping the masks on for 24 hours and Brad persisted saying “Yes, we must get used to having them on.” …it was symbolic to me for 24 Hr. Prayer and being ready and comfortable praying in all times and situations.
Then another believer assured me that terrorist are radical and we need to pray…I realize how naive I have been…and recognize our need to pray each day even if it is 2- 5 min…however the Lord leads us…
I had not felt this call before…but sensed it is at least through the holidays and maybe beyond… Pray each day, little by little…against hatred, against this evil.
Rise up intercessors and pray in peace and calmness against these things.
In Christ,
Brad Long
