Swords Are Being Prepared In Secret

I hear the Spirit of the Lord saying, "My children, the hour has come where you will no longer walk as scattered, but as a mighty army clothed in My Spirit. I am raising you up—not with swords of iron nor weapons of the flesh, but with the Fire of My presence and with the authority of My Word. You will march not by human strength, but by the breath of My Spirit that goes before you, behind you, and within you.

I am summoning the hidden ones, those who have walked through both fire and wilderness, those who the world has overlooked. I have refined you in the secret place so that you might shine with My glory in the open. You are My warriors—set apart, consecrated, and fearless in the face of darkness.

You will not fight as the world fights, for your warfare is not of this world. I have placed within you a roar, a decree, a sword of truth that cuts through lies and shatters strongholds. Chains will break at your word because it is My Word in your mouth. The sick will be healed, the broken will be restored, and captives will be set free by the anointing you carry.

Like Ezekiel’s vision, I am breathing upon the dry bones, and they are rising—a vast army clothed with life. You are that army. You are the light-bearers, the torch carriers, the flame in the midnight hour. Nations will tremble not at your strength, but at My power displayed through you.

Do not fear the darkness, for you were born for this time. The night only makes My light in you shine brighter. You are the sons and daughters of the Living God, the army of the Spirit, the bride made ready for her King.

Stand, arise, and march forth in unity. For I, the Lord of Hosts, go before you, and My Spirit is your strength.

Blain, this prophecy runs a close parallel between to the army that fought for David. They were also scattered in a sense, in that they were a mixed rabble and not well organized like the professional army what King Saul had. But they were being trained for war in secret by the hand of God. They trained in secret, but as they grew in power and strength they expanded, and when David assumed the throne they went on to lead the entire army of Israel. The cave of Adullam is where his army first began, but it grew into a force that eventually established Israel as a nation like never before in history.

1 David therefore departed from there and escaped to the cave of Adullam. So when his brothers and all his father’s house heard it, they went down there to him. 2 And everyone who was in distress, everyone who was in debt, and everyone who was discontented gathered to him. So he became captain over them. And there were about four hundred men with him. (1 Samuel 22:1-2)

The comparisons here are obvious. The end-time army of God will start small, but it will grow into a very powerful force that establishes the kingdom of God on earth as never before in its history as well. And when the Spirit is poured out, they will go forth as "mighty men" to destroy the works of the enemy, warriors who wield the sword and take down every stronghold the Devil has set up.

There is also a Rick Joyner prophecy I can share later that relates directly to this theme.

Blessings in Christ, and thanks for posting.
