It is hard to imagine what may occur in the spirit realm before the Rapture of His Bride.

Satan is marshalling his forces for a final onslaught against all that represents God and His Saints. We should be thankful that Satan hates a real saint of God just like he hates God. Our Father intended that we should so serve Him and live so godly that the evil one knows we are God’s property. I do not want to live by any standard or any manner that is not perfectly clear whose side I am on.

The day has arrived that every saint that is Godly and holy before the Lord must trust in His angels. This is God’s will for us. We are no match for the spirits that fill our world. Their “fiery darts” are innumerable and their wiles are constant. God’s Holy Bible plainly promises us the protection of His angels. “Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?” (Hebrews 1:14) Believe me when I tell you that you need His angels in this “End Time” war. You are helpless in your strength. His angels are wonderful.

The mighty angels of the Lord are not to be tampered with. They are far superior to you and I, but they can also defeat Satan and his corrupt angels. One Cherubim could easily defeat a ten-thousand man army. The Assyrian army was an awesome fighting force. Yet, when they encamped against Jerusalem under their King Sennacherib, the Angels slew 185,000 in one night. Time and again God has broken the powers of mighty armies with one or more of His Host of Angels. When America was a Godly nation, God performed many miracles to protect us from pagan countries and their incredible armies. I’m sure you have read or remember Germany and Japan.

One of the greatest stories in God’s infallible Word was the experience of Elisha in Dothan. The army of Syria was warring with Israel and God was using Elisha to warn Israel’s king of the whereabouts of the Syrian army. The servant of Syria’s king told him of this man of God. “And one of his servants said, None, my lord, O king: but Elisha, the prophet that is in Israel, telleth the king of Israel the words that thou speakest in thy bedchamber. And he said, Go and spy where he is, that I may send and fetch him. And it was told him, saying, Behold, he is in Dothan.” (II Kings 6:12-13) What a picture of the wonderful ways Israel’s God took care of them.

The Syrian king sent his army after the prophet. That was certainly a dumb move “Therefore sent he thither horses, and chariots, and a great host: and they came by night, and compassed the city about. And when the servant of the man of God was risen early, and gone forth, behold, an host compassed the city both with horses and chariots. And his servant said unto him, Alas, my master! how shall we do?” (II Kings 6:14-15) This would appear to have been the end of Elisha. No prophet with one servant would have a chance against an army.

God’s man was well equipped with Angels so he had no fear. Elisha spoke words of faith just like we need to learn. “And he answered, Fear not: for they that be with us are more than they that be with them. And Elisha prayed, and said, LORD, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see. And the LORD opened the eyes of the young man; and he saw: and, behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire round about Elisha.” (II Kings 6: 16-17) Heaven still has this army and they belong to us. Heavenly horses and chariots has got to paint a breathtaking picture.
