Intercessors Cooperating With The Holy Spirit

The Crisis in Syria and Equipping for Intercessors

April 10, 2018 by Brad Long 5 Comments

Called into the Gap to constrain the powers of evil stirring in Syria.

The whole world was horrified by the chemical warfare attack of the Assad Regime killing mostly women and children.

Ever since this took place, I have felt the swirling in the heavenlies of the gathering of high-level demonic spirits as well as the mobilizing of the angelic host.  That is beginning to erupt within the human realm in military conflict.

Today I received from an intercessor the following words that I believe are urgent to pass on to others.  These need to be discerned.  But here they are:

  1. On April 3 and 5, I received the same word that a ‘war warning’ is coming to Israel. It was accompanied on April 4 by the following:

“A great war is coming to the Middle East. It will start soon…Iran’s anger will spill over into rage…when the borders of Israel are finally sealed, it will be twice the size…I will not make Israel smaller, but bigger”

  1. On April 5, more was received:

“The evil that Man has planned against Israel will soon cease…I will bring upon the enemies of Israel that which they deserve…they will howl and wail for what I will bring upon them”

  1. On April 9, I received the sense that the recent attack upon Syria is leading to the weakening of Assad’s power; however, it is also serving to strengthen Iran’s hold in that area. Thus, the Psalm 83 war edges closer to reality. A word followed this insight:

“At some point, his house collapses…and then the war begins…in the confusion, the enemy will strike”

Analysis by this intercessor:

This means that Assad’s days are definitely numbered and that his end is a certainty. Iran will capitalize on the immediate aftermath with a full-scale assault upon Israel from various quarters.

We should keep in mind that Iran already controls a military force in and around Syria greater than that of Assad, along with the vast Hezbollah missile arsenal. I also fully expect that, when Assad is about to go out the door, so will the Russians.

It is not logical to see them hanging around a ship on its way to the bottom. The defeat will humiliate Russia and may play a role in the much bigger Gog War which is a number of years ahead in the future.

I should also mention that a number of words have been received over the past year indicating the coming war, although a tremendous victory for Israel, will be a costly one. It will take them two years to recover from it and there will be a lot of casualties.

Please discern this with us.

I would encourage you to read the blog post “Taking Part in the Father’s End Times Restoration Plans”   This post was originally written in February 2018, as an equipping piece to prepare intercessors for the upcoming battles. It was written as I discerned the deceptive statements made by President Abbas and other Muslim leaders who publicly perpetuate the monstrous lie from Satan that the Jewish people and Judaism do not have any present, historic, or spiritual ties to Jerusalem and the Temple Mount.

I know this is a lengthy article but one in which I expose Satan’s strategies and make suggestions as to how we are called to prepare ourselves for our role as intercessors for participating in the Father’s End Times plans for fulfilling the Great Commission and Restoration of all things (Acts 3:17-21).

How to pray

I have personally received a couple of pieces of guidance about how to pray

The first is to pray for a decisive and crushing victory over the forces that Iran has built up, over many years, with the intention of destroying Israel.

The second, (I know this sounds crazy!) it is the persistent guidance that we are to pray there will be a rapprochement between Russia and the United States. And that we can move into what I believe is God’s master plan to oppose Satan’s plans by having America and Russia working together in the common cause of defeating the nemeses of Radical Islam and protecting “Western civilization.” Just as we had to work together with Great Britain to defeat the common nemeses of Nazism in defence of Western Civilization.

    There is confirmation in my spirit for this whole piece. I am sensing that Iran is growing as Assad is on his way out. I believe that the enemy is also poised and ready to twist the events there to put the blame on US and/or Israel — i believe that I am seeing lines being drawn in the sand — that the enemy is drawing closer if not already has stepped over that line. Israel is at the center of the storm — I joined with Asher Intrater on Revive Israel prayer meeting yesterday — in which he explained the situation well from a perspective of Israel. I am sensing the events in Gaza/ Hamas is another piece or part of this swirling. It’s as if the enemy is unleashing multi storms. I liken it to living here in NJ — we have hurricane season — and when storms from different areas/directions come together at the center of convergence there is the most destruction. I believe that Israel is in that path that the enemy is setting up that center — or line in the sand in the middle east — swirling storms are Iran, Syria, Russia and Hamas/Gaza. The enemy has a long ancient history of trying to destroy God’s people — the bible shows that and history also reveals this especially Nazism and the Holocaust — which remarkably today is Holocaust remembrance day. We know that the enemy wants to wipe Israel off the map. We also know what scripture says about Israel I pray for the LORD’s Shalom over Israel. I pray that many Jews are drawn to the saving Grace of Yeshua. This spring marks the 70th Anniversary of israel becoming a nation. I also agree that Russia, the western world including the US’s role is crucial and that the “distractions” of the progressive liberals must be silenced. As representatives of many countries on this team are we being called to stand in the gap for this situation? Do we battle against these storms separately BEFORE they come together or have they already joined together? My spirit has been on alert for quite some time now at this high level and I wasn’t sure the reason until the press conference with President Trump in regards to the Syria atrocities. LORD we need Your leading and guiding in where to tread. LORD keep our eyes focused on YOU and not on the storms — may we see the storms only on the periphery with our focus on YOU in guiding us into this battle.
