Hi precious "Peace Warriors". Isn't it awesome that when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Lord raises up a standard! And YOU are part of that standard. We are living in such awesome days and I am sensing that there is a mighty shift taking place in the Spirit. When Jesus died on the cross we are told that the earth split and many were raised from the dead and walked around the city. Lazarus too was raised up from a place of death simply at the sound of the voice of Jesus. As we have witnessed many earth shattering natural disasters in the pasts weeks, we realise the importance for us to know the foundations on which we stand. Isaiah 33:6 says "He will be a sure foundation for your times, a rich store of salvation, wisdom and knowledge and the key to this treasure is the fear of the Lord."
Many people are asking questions at this time. What an opportunity for us as Women of Peace to be able to testify by word and deed of our love relationship with the Prince of Peace who promises us that though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, His steadfast love and covenant of peace shall not be removed from us. (Isaiah 55:10)
Even in my country, there have been many shaking's. Last year the Lord began to speak to me about a new song that He wanted to release to His people. Here in South Africa at a time where a song of hate has stirred up much fear and descention amongst people, we need to rise up and sing this love song which has the power to change and shape our nation so that it would be for the display of His glory. This love song needs to go forth founded on the strong promises of God. We need to hear the notes of this song from the throne-room of God so that it can be released accurately and melodically into our every day ordinary lives, into our homes, into the workplace and to all that we come into contact with bringing His government and order. Let it flow in time with His heartbeat in the unforced rhythms of His grace and mercy that it might release life to all who hear.
I am reminded of the powerful song that Jehoshaphat released through his army. It reads "Give thanks to the Lord for His love endures forever." As this song went out the enemy turned on itself and the battle was won! What an inspiration to us. The army ended up in the valley of blessing. I trust that as the earth "shifts" you too will be shifted and positioned to take up your place in the army of peace and that the song of the Lord will go forth from you as a lifestyle. Be encouraged Women of Peace. You have been called for such a time as this!
Love Lindah
