Something the Lord has been confirming to me in this hour
and in this season: HE is RAISING up more WATCHMEN, some
for His house, some for various regions, and even some
for the NATIONS! The Lord is raising up both men and
women who will be His mouthpieces and will bring forth
the WORD of the LORD as they HEAR it from HIM! They will
WARN when necessary, bring WORDS of encouragement and
edification when needed, and WILL be willing to WAR in
the SPIRIT as part of their assignment from the Lord.
Some may even be experiencing a newness and renewed
vitality in their prayer lives as they step up as
INTERCESSORS in the body of Christ.
Part of the call to be a WATCHMEN often involves much
WAITING. And in the waiting it is often easy to become
very WEARY, especially given the mass wickedness that
surrounds us at every turn. The ENEMY always works hard
when he knows God is ready to fulfill His WORD towards
His people. If WEARY describes you in this current
season the Lord would encourage you just as He encouraged
the Prophet Habakkuk: The LORD replied, “Look around at
the nations; look and be amazed! For I am doing
something in your own day, something you wouldn’t believe
even if someone told you about it.” (Habakkuk 1:5, NLT)
Just because the answer from the Lord has yet to arrive
does not mean it isn’t on the way. Even in your personal
lives many of you are very WEARY WAITING upon the LORD
for specific answers to your prayers. Some of you have
been CRYING out, HOW LONG LORD?! Take heart my brothers
and sisters. You will not be disappointed in your
waiting for the Lord will also work a work in your lives
far above all you could even ask or think, DESPITE what
the circumstances may look like.
WATCHMEN also SEE what is coming WAY OFF in the far
distance. Watchmen have a very SPECIFIC PROPHETIC call
from the LORD. Yes, even many of you SEE the PROMISES of
GOD and that which is to come in due season. You have
heard the WORD of the LORD and even in the WAITING you
are clinging to HIS PROMISES! KEEP WAITING! For what God
has said, HE WILL DO! He is WATCHING over His WORD to
PERFORM it!! Those PROPHETIC promises that you have
stored up in your hearts! YES He WILL bring them to PASS!
Even GOD had to remind His servant that DELAY did NOT
mean DENIAL. “This vision is for a future time. It
describes the end, and it will be fulfilled. If it seems
slow in coming, wait patiently, for it will surely take
place. It will not be delayed.” (Habakkuk 2:3, NLT) If
you are in a season of WAITING, let this WORD from the
LORD bring encouragement to your WEARY souls.
Prophet Habakkuk finally came to the place where DESPITE
all the works of darkness surrounding him. In SPITE of
all the chaos and what seemed to CONTRADICT the WORD of
the LORD to him. Habakkuk made a conscious decision to
WORSHIP in the WAITING. Habakkuk took HOLD of God’s
PROMISES and offered up a song of PRAISE in the midst of
PAIN. “Even though the fig trees have no blossoms, and
there are no grapes on the vines; even though the olive
crop fails, and the fields lie empty and barren; even
though the flocks die in the fields,and the cattle barns
are empty, yet I will rejoice in the LORD! I will be
joyful in the God of my salvation!” (Habakkuk 3:17-18,
NLT)
Does this seem like the SEASON you are IN? Are you called
as a WATCHMEN for the LORD? As you set watch for the
people of God, for your families, for your children, for
your cities and nations, remember that although at times
we can become WEARY waiting upon the LORD, yet we CAN
WORSHIP the LORD for He will FULFILL every GOOD thing
towards HIS people, and NOT ONE of HIS WORDS will fall to
the GROUND!! Both for the PEOPLE of GOD and each of you
reading this PERSONALLY: receive this WORD from GOD, be
ENCOURAGED in the WAITING! God WILL be FAITHFUL to YOU
and He WILL FULFILL His WORD!

ashamed; Those who deal treacherously without cause will
be ashamed
