We find ourselves on the precipice of Church history once again.  The spiritual war that spilled out from heaven to earth in Revelation 12 is raging in this world as Revelation 12:12 has manifested.  It warns "Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time.”

Three Kinds of People in War
Here's an important Biblical principle expressed in 1 Corinthians 15:46 which teaches us that the natural comes first and then the spiritual.  So, there are some things we can learn about spiritual war by studying natural war.  

Consider this brief historical look at America's war for independence (1775-1783).  There were three kinds of people. 

1. The Volunteers!  These were members of the militia, minutemen, and the Continental Army actively engaged in the fight and they made up about 3% of the population.  Another 25-30% actively supporting the cause for freedom from tyranny.
2. The Complacent!  These are those who just did not care one way or the other.  If the British won fine or if the Colonies won, they were fine.  This made up about 30-40% of the population.  They could also be described as disinterested, aloof, uninterested which veil ignorance and some cowardice.  Their primary interest was their self.  
3. The Tories!  - These were in one sense like the anti-war protesters of the Vietnam era but in another sense they were not.  Many joined with the British Army fighting against  those who volunteered in the War of Independence. 

It's basically the same in any conflict.  As I waited upon the Lord about the spiritual war we are in this is what I heard were the three kinds of people in this spiritual war today.  I call them the 3 R's!  The question is, which one are you?  

The Three Kinds of People in Spiritual War Today

1 Corinthians 15:44-46 introduce a spiritual truth.  First the natural and then the spiritual.  Daniel 6:27, Acts 2:19, and Hebrews 2:4 are just a few of the scriptures that teach us another important spiritual truth and that is that God uses signs and wonders to communicate.  

The signs consists of events that point to God's word and His will.  Here is a current example. 

On January 7, 2019 I shared the word of the Lord regarding God's desire for His people to recalibrate their moral compass.  Three days later God marked that message with a powerful sign that should make everyone wonder.  Fox News reported how that scientists were baffled by the geomagnetic northpole's movement which causes them to recalibrate all their instruments years earlier than expected.  To see the whole story click the Sign Scientists Just Discovered at the Northpole that points to our Moral Compass! 

God Just Gave Another Sign through His Prophet
What's the sign?  It's two things. 

It's a current event combined with consistent prophetic words that points to an element of God's word that reveals His will. In this case, a prophet had a dream on the 18th which is what prompted the bold title in this article.   

Consider These Words

Isaiah 2:2-3 
Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the Lord's house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And all nations shall flow to it. Many people shall come and say, “Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths.” For out of Zion shall go forth the law, And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

​How can we build a mountain of prayer?  It's accomplished one person, one hour, one church/ministry, one day at a time.  Every single hour, person, or ministry who prays contributes to that.

In 1Church1Day we've developed a way to help us see how we are doing.  Inspired by our heavenly Father who even counts the number of hairs on our head (Matthew 10:29) we track every hour a person reports that they pray in the calendar as well as every day a ministry or church covers with 24/7 prayer. This way we can see how we are progressing building our Father's house of prayer for all nations. 

What's the key?  Isaiah 22:22 spoke of the key of David.  David's key combined communication and teamwork through a little administration to facilitate 24/7 continual prayer, praise and worship on Zion in Jerusalem.  

Why?  Power to Rule & Reign

A valley is a low point created by and in between hills and mountains. In Christendom today the concept of the 7 mountains of society has been presented for the last 30+ years.

When issues arise in society we often find these issues in the valleys.  They are low points in our society. 

The low points provide an opportunity for people to make decisions.  Judgments if you will. 

These decisions reveal how they view God's word and truth.  Jesus teaches us  that we will give an account for every "idle word" (Matthew 12:36) we speak.  Each of us will stand before our Lord to give an account of how we stewarded our life on this earth at the judgment seat of Christ.

Today there are a lot of low points.  One occurred yesterday. The Republican's during the last election had run on a promise to defund Planned Parenthood (Murderhood).  Yet, when Senator Rand Paul presented his bill to do that, they voted "no," again.  They missed another opportunity to keep their campaign promise. This decision reveals the priorities of their heart as there are some things more important to them than the "shedding of innocent blood" and keeping their word.  That just created a valley of decision between the government, family and religious mountains.  Click for The Hill's report on the  Senate rejects Paul's effort to strip Planned Parenthood of federal funding. 

Truly, it is a low point, A VERY LOW POINT! It is a "valley of decision" that reveals what's really in their heart and what they think about God and truth. 

This situation was created in large part because God choose to play His "Trump" card in this last election. The life of the unborn was one of the major issues brought to the forefront during the election. God chose a vessel who would create many opportunities to reveal the hearts of men.  

This is not the first time God has done this in history.  In fact, it's a theme that's been played over and over.  For example Jesus describes in Luke 7 how the Pharisees and the lawyers (religious & political spheres) failed to recognize the people God sent to represent His heavenly agenda. 

The pattern is being repeated today and how we respond to each situation reveals the judgments we've made in our hearts towards God and His Truth.  Jesus said in Luke 7:33...
