The War for Oil — the Birthing of Nations — and the John the Baptist Mantle
The War for Oil — the Birthing of Nations — and the John the Baptist Mantle for Such a Time as This
Late last night I was impressed to go into my Prayer Hut, and as I sat before The LORD, He began to show me yet again, ancient Altars rising.
I have spoken much into this in recent years, and The LORD has released much in the way of Revelation.
I have spoken about Altar vs Altar, Covenant vs Covenant and B ride vs Bride.
Last night as I sat in the quiet of the garden, the atmosphere was weighty and yet it was a weightiness that felt like the weight a heavily pregnant woman would feel as the due date quickly approaches.
Movements within the womb are not as frequent as they were in the second trimester, but when there is movement it’s strong, it’s distinct and it can be jarring — even painful.
There is stretching and pressure taking place in the deeper places, and there is a strange and increasing discomfort as the body begins to come into alignment for the Time of Delivery.
There is a tangible sense of Imminence, and that at anytime the waters will break and that which has been carried for nine (9) months will suddenly come forth.
That’s what it felt like in the Spiritual Realm as I sat before The LORD. There was a brooding of the Spirit — a brooding unto Birthing and Delivery.
A Weight of Glory is beginning to descend upon the Foundations of The Nations, a Weight that carries the Judicial Authority and Power of Heaven.
It is a Holy Weight that is pressing upon the Womb of Nations, calling forth that which has long been Divinely Ordained, bringing Heaven’s Verdict to the very Foundations that have been laid — Foundations that must be prepared to carry the Weight of what’s about to be Birthed on the Earth!
As I waited, I began to ascend higher and the Spiritual Atmosphere became thinner and thinner.
I could hear the sounds of Warring in the Second Heaven — the sounds of War Drums and hum of mocking spirits, the clashing of Swords and sound of demons screaming and screeching — but as I ascended higher, my senses became stronger .and my vision became clearer and more acute.
Realms and Dimensions of the Glory breaking wide open!
As I yielded, so I ascended higher.
Keys, Scrolls, Mantles and Crowns appeared before me — yet I was being taken ‘deeper’ — and still ‘higher’….
Then suddenly, I saw what looked like a River of Oil, and I heard, “Oil! Oil! Oil! Rivers of Oil shall fill the Wells and flow forth upon the soil…
Oil! Oil! Oil! A War over Oil — for greater Power and Dominion!
For I say, the hour is late — the Virgins wait — Trim the wicks and ready the Lamps — for the Oil shall bring forth Light in the coming and Increasing darkness.
Watch! For there shall be Wars and greater Battles over Oil — for Oil that fuels the future of the Destinies of Nations.
But Watch! For in the midst of War there shall come a Divine Delivery — a fresh outpouring of the Oil of My Seven Spirits upon those who have prepared their Lamps and Trimmed their Wicks!
Look and see! Listen! For the Sound of the Trumpet heralds Divine Intervention and Victory!
Fear Not! For In the days of Increasing darkness, as Nations rage for dominion at the Gate and ownership of the Straits — the Light of My Glory shall not be diminished and those who have Oil shall shine with greater Authority and Power and Kings and All Nations shall be drawn to the Brightness of their Rising!
For I say, arise and shine! For your Light has come, and the Glory of The LORD shall rise upon you.
Though darkness covers the earth and deep darkness the peoples, My Glory shall be seen upon those who have kept Oil in their Lamps, and they shall become Beacons of Hope, Truth, and Light in the midst of the gathering darkness!”
Now as I heard those Words by The Spirit of Revelation, I began to Pray fervently for the Rising Remnant, when suddenly The Spirit quickened to me the widow of Zarapeth.
Zarapeth meaning; a place of Refining and Purification…
In 1 Kings 17:8–16 — during a time of drought, famine, and National judgment, God sends His Prophet Elijah to a widow whom he meets at the Gate/ Place of Entry and he instructs her to make him a cake….
And we see that at the place of the Gate, a Divine Appointed takes place and at a Kairos Time of National Judgement, Faith and Obedience become the catalyst for Supernatural Provision, Divine Preservation and Sustaining Grace…
I hear The Spirit say, “Watch and Pray! As Nations rise and rage and as My Sword and Gavel Falls — Fear not!
For even as I sustained the widow of Zarephath in the days of famine and at a time of National Purification, her flour and oil did not fail, and so shall I preserve and provide for those who have obeyed and trusted in Me!
I say, though Nations on the Threshing (Flour) Floor War and Contend (for Oil) as Global Economies are violently shaken and sifted and darkness increases upon the earth, I shall cause The Rivers of Oil to flow forth upon the soil!
The Wells shall not run dry. The Lamps shall be filled — and My Light shall shine through those who have remained faithfully Watching and Praying!”
Now, as I came out of a Time of what felt like a powerful and Intimate Encounter in the Presence of The LORD, ”This is that!”
The Holy Spirit spoke these Words to me again, ”Watch! You have entered Into a ‘This is That which has been Prophesied,’ hour and Season!”
As I heard The Spirit speak to me again about this, suddenly John the Baptist came up before me and I saw a Heavy Mantle fall upon The Remnant Sons, and I knew by The Spirit that I was seeing a Mantle of John the Baptist!
Now, I need to be careful to stay biblical grounded here, as it’s hard to articulate what I see at times in the Spirit, and though I say, “I saw a John the Baptist Mantle…” the Mantle of John the Baptist I saw is not just a Mantle that prophesies what is coming — but a Mantle that sees and can recognise and accurately Discern what has arrived!
John the Baptist stood on the Threshold and at a treat Turning Point of history within The Nations.
He was entrusted with Pronouncing and Announcing what Generations of Prophets had long foretold — and then with pointing to its sudden fulfillment, declaring — “Behold! The Lamb of God’ (John 1:29).
John the Baptist’s Mantle and Ministry marked the Divine Transition from Prophetic Promise to Powerful Prophetic Manifestation!
John the Baptist was called “the greatest of the Prophets” (Matthew 11:11) because he was not only sent to prophesy concerning the coming of the Messiah, but he also lived to behold the fulfillment of what had been spoken.
Yes! He pointed to Jesus and declared, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” (John 1:29).
What had long been prophesied, now stood before him in living reality — in real time!
And I hear The Spirit say, “Watch! For In this Hour and Season of Divine Transition and Accelerated Change and Reformation, My Prophets, Mantled in the Spirit and Power of Elijah, will say, ”NOW… This is THAT which has been Prophesied!””
I submit that even as I sit here and write, I am shaking with The Spirit of The Fear of The LORD, for what I see coming upon the Remnant Sons of Thunder in the Days ahead.
For this is an Hour — a Kairos Time — when many Prophetic Words that have been spoken, prayed over, warred and contended for, and carried and then been Birthed through Seasons of intense and unrelenting Warfare and Waiting, will begin to stand before the eyes of The Nations in visible fulfillment.
I am hearing, ”For these are surely the Days of Elijah — and as in the Days of John the Baptist — when there will be those who are able to point and declare, “NOW, this is that which has been Prophesied for Such a Time as This!””
I believe Prophetically, that this is a Time and Season when the Prophetic Promise moves from Declaration to Powerful Apostolic and Prophetic Manifestation and Demonstration, and from Prophetic Expectation, to the Birthing and fulfillment of Kingdom Destiny and Inheritance.
Get Ready! We have now entered into sudden and unexpected and unprecedented times, when the acceleration of God’s Purposes will cause many to Witness the Unfolding of what He has spoken through His Prophets from the beginning of time over Nations, Cities, Ministries, Individuals and Generations.
Watch! The days ahead will require Eyes to see, Ears to hear, and Hearts that can Discern — for what once seemed distant, will suddenly stand before us…
THIS is THAT which has been Prophesied!
Blessings to you all.
