Hold The Line
Our friend and seasoned prophet, Jane Hamon, released the following word in February of 2021. I realize it was for then, but I am confident the word is also for now. It will encourage you during this time as the unrest here in America and elsewhere increases. We have said the following before, but it is good to be reminded once again: we cannot judge what God is doing primarily by what we see around us. As we shared in yesterday’s post, Holy Spirit is doing much behind the scenes and under the surface to expose and prepare the earth for what He has planned. Jane begins…
“We are now in a very important time of spiritual engagement, prayer, and contending over God’s destiny and purpose for the United States and other nations in the earth. Romans 13:11 exhorts us to ‘know the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep.’ The Spirit of God is awakening watchmen and intercessors to watch and pray as never before.
Riots and Riot Police
“On February 2, 2021, I awakened from a dream in which I saw American cities seemingly being overrun by violent rioters in a dark night. Cities were on fire, massive destruction and anarchy were taking place. The rioters were lawless and demonized; in fact, their actions were totally inspired by the demons. A strong, demonic force thought they were in control. (I do not believe this was a reference to the riots that occurred last year in some American cities, but was instead a glimpse into the spirit realm regarding demonic activity currently at work.)
“In the dream, there was a force present which I recognized as riot police. I knew this was actually the Ekklesia who had been assigned to restore order and peace in the nation. They were standing shoulder to shoulder as far as the eye could see, with shields locked and full riot gear on, which I realized was modernized spiritual armor (see Ephesians 6:11-17). They did not have a sword in their hands, for the sword was in their mouths.
Jane continues, “Initially, I was uncomfortable with the imagery of riot police because of well-publicized instances when they’ve been accused of political repression against honest dissent. However, the job description of riot police is to control unruly crowds, maintain public order, discourage criminality, and protect people and property. When this is understood, the imagery is appropriate for our current season of contending as the Ekklesia.
“In my dream, I saw a large angel with a megaphone intermittently shouting, ‘Hold the Line.’ When he stated this, the Ekklesia would march forward two thundering steps, shields locked, pressing back against evil. They were advancing even though every kind of evil was swirling around them. As they marched, they released a sound of war (Hu-ah!), and light came from their mouths, blinding the enemy! ‘Hold the Line’ rang out again, and once more, the Ekklesia marched forward, pushing back evil. The gates of hell could not prevail, and evil would not be stronger than God’s church.
“The sound the Ekklesia’s boots made resonated in the heavens, and I realized the armies of heaven were marching with them. (Like the four lepers who said, ‘Why sit we here until we die,’ and got up to go to the enemy’s camp. God caused the sounds of angel armies to march with them, terrifying their foe.) In the dream, this sound caused the demons to scream in agony and panic as they realized they were not just dealing with humans (the church), God’s army on earth; they were also being confronted with the armies in heaven. Two armies advancing; two armies taking authority and dominion in the earth; two armies bringing God’s kingdom into the land; two armies pushing back against the very gates of hell.
“I believe the Lord is saying to His Ekklesia, ‘My people, do not be afraid of the night! The night does not belong to evil. I OWN THE NIGHT! The night only coaxes wickedness out of their hiding places, then when the light is turned on there is no place to run. The night precedes the dawning of the new day. For you are living in the manifestation of Isaiah 60 where it seems darkness is covering the earth and deep darkness and deception cover the people, BUT I, the Lord, am rising on you! And My glory will be seen on you! THEN nations (even this nation) will come to your light and kings and leaders to the brightness of your rising!’ (see Isaiah 60:1-3)
“And the Lord is declaring to His Ekklesia, ‘You may feel that you are living in a day in which evil has prevailed. However, I say to you, I am up to something! Did I not say that I would cause evil and corruption to be uncovered? Did I not say there would be days of chaos and confusion ahead? Did I not say I would expose hidden plans and demonic schemes?’ The Lord says, ‘Did you think it would be easy or look peaceful? Ha! Do I need to remind you that the greatest victories come after the greatest battles?’
“Psalms 2:1, 4 declares, ‘Why do the nations rage and the people plot a vain thing? God sits in the heavens and laughs!’ The Lord says, ‘I assure you I have a plan for America. I assure you I have heard your prayers. I assure you that I am a God of righteousness and justice, and I will have MY WAY.’
“You may feel you’re at the Red Sea and Pharoah’s armies are pursuing. You may even feel trapped and that your plight is hopeless. But the Lord says, ‘I have a plan! I am up to something that no one has seen before. I am going to move in a way that is beyond the natural; it is supernatural.’
“So, HOLD THE LINE, EKKLESIA!!! It is a time to advance even in the midst of darkness.
Hold the line through prayer and prophetic decrees.
Hold the line with worship that opens the heavens.
Hold the line for your own personal peace, joy, and faith.
Hold the line for justice, truth, and righteousness.
Hold the line for the coming revival and awakening.
Hold the line for the destiny of your nation.
“Shake off the weariness and break out of grief and disappointment! Rise up as warriors, empowered by Holy Spirit, and take your land. Our victory has never been closer, but we must press through the night to the dawning of our new day.”
Pray With Me:
Father, we are thankful that You have a covenant plan for America, and the light of Your glory is shining brightly into the darkness. We thank You that America’s greatest days are ahead as Your Ekklesia rises up and takes its place of authority in our land. We set our eyes on You, knowing You are up to something supernatural that will usher in the greatest spiritual awakening in the history of the earth.
Lord, give us eyes to see what You are doing. Give us ears to hear what You are saying. Give us courageous hearts that stand ready to hold the line for righteousness, justice, and truth. Give us the spirit of wisdom and revelation so we can push back evil, restore divine order, secure peace, and see Your kingdom advance.
We continue to stand against the prince of Persia. We decree that the blood of Jesus at Calvary delivered the Middle East from his authority. We declare over them that the light of revelation is coming, and their eyes will be opened to see who Yeshua is and believe in Him. We decree that the violence this spirit has propagated will not succeed in stopping the coming harvest. And we declare that the shaking in the Middle East and here in America, will produce what God has determined, not what satan intended.
We also continue our prayers for our government here in America, Father. We ask You for favor to those who rule well, and failure to those who do not. We pray especially for Speaker Johnson that he and those close to him would be given divine wisdom and protection. We pray this also for President Trump. Continue to expose the injustice against him and cause it to fail. We ask for continued exposure of corruption throughout our government, and that the shaking removes it at all levels.
We thank You that America is anointed with the oil of Holy Spirit at every border in every state, and that we are anchored to our purpose, destiny, and covenant with You. You are restoring us; we will not fear, we will not waver. We will stand. In Christ’s authority, we pray, amen.
Our decree:
We decree the Ekklesia is arising in unity, with shields locked and a sound of victory in our mouths. The gates of hell will not prevail against us, and America shall be saved! We will hold the line and advance the kingdom.
