I'm calling my Christian soldiers

I'm calling my Christian Soldiers

~ a prophecy by Bonnie Franklin 12-11-01

     Yes, there are grave times in the world and there is great trouble and there is great tribulation, but do I not send my angels to mark the foreheads of the intercessors? Read the Word, my people. It was done in the days of Jeremiah and the intercessors were protected and it is done in the days of Revelation and are you not in the last days?

So, know yes, you do have those angels by your side and they do give the dreams of warning in the night. They will give the visions in the daytime. You will have the great travail come upon you like you haven't known except perhaps when you were praying for your little ones, especially in their teenage years. But carry the burden and birth it through in the spirit realm and my angels will be there to deliver it forth so that you will see the salvation of your loved ones, you will see the salvation of Israel, you will see the salvation of your nation, you will see the salvation of pastors and kings.

     I'm calling you, I'm calling you, I'm calling you to pray. Are you not anointed ones to pray? Then come even as those bells would ring - like those who are soldiers as they stand up early in the morning to do their duties. I'm calling my Christian soldiers to come and to seek my face early and to even stand at attention, as you would watch the soldiers stand at attention. Can you not also stand at attention?

It is no longer a time when you can just come once a week, twice a week, to have the social hour, to hear the nice word, the beautiful song. But even as you see the nations aligned in war and the battlefield round about you, I'm calling my church. Do not sit on the sidelines. Even as you found yourself active in the days before - during the weeks of the election were you not praying? Did you not respond to the call to fast and pray, fast and pray, fast and pray? Mine prophets and mine intercessors have called for the fasting and they have called for the praying. It is a call sent forth from heaven.

     Come and receive your stripes upon your shoulders. Come and receive your marching orders. Each one has a job to do. For one it may be to fetch the water to quench the thirst of the others. For one it may be loading in the armory, making sure the weapons are filled. To one it may be sending forth the directions to the strategic places.

You have been trained well. You have been trained. You have been trained in the supernatural and you have been fighting the demonic forces and the demonic armies for years. Say not, you are not ready. Say not, "Oh, I must go through boot camp; I don't know how to do this." You're ready. You are ready. Except this time, you're not going to just be praying for a pastor or a minister or an evangelist. But you're going to be praying for soldiers, you're going to be praying for kings, you're going to be praying for the beloved sons and daughters in the airplanes defending this nation on the battlefields.

     Oh, where are my Davids? Where are my Deborahs, yes who know how to come into the temple and who know how to come into God's presence. They know how to sing the sweet worship songs, but they also know how to pick up the sword and do battle. I'm calling you forth to pick up your swords. I'm calling you forth to pick up your stones and your slingshots and pray and pray and pray and pray and pray and pray and pray and pray and pray! Do you know how much you can stop in your prayers? Do you know how much you can accomplish in your prayers?

Oh, yes there are many plans of the enemy. There are many attacks planned. Say not, "It is over and the enemy is defeated." For who does fuel the enemy? It's the enemy of your soul and he has many ready and waiting to step in their places, to fill their shoes. This is a battle and a warfare, which has only just begun, my people. It has only just begun.

But do not lose heart. Do not say, "Let's go back to the easy days, to the picnics on the hill." Because even all the battle that is brewing is leading up to the coming of my Son when he will sit on the throne and once and for all there will be peace reigning over Jerusalem and over the world. You have entered into that Age. It is even upon you.

     So, welcome into the army of intercessors. And isn't it wonderful that you do even have the newscasts, the radio broadcasts, the pictures in the newspapers where you can know where the frontlines are in the natural, and you can go there in the spirit realm and you can bandage their wounds. You can be those Nightingales in the night hour. Some of you are called to be nurses. Pray for the ones who are wounded. Pray for those who have lost loved ones. Pray that bitterness would not settle into their hearts, but pray that they would turn their eyes upon Jesus who can wash their tears away, wash their hurts away, who can solidify the unity you have seen. Oh, may it not be for just a moment but may this nation stay unified. Would that not be my will? It could be done; it can be done.

Raise your voices to heaven. Take out your swords. Do battle for me for I will go before you. My angels are before you; they're all around you. There is much you can do. Yes, you can even say the prayers as you wash the dishes and you sweep the floors. Yes, you can say the prayers, as you would drive your cars in the streets. But I would even call you to come before my altar and fast and pray, and fast and pray, and fast and pray. There is much that can be accomplished.
