THE WEAPONIZED VIRGIN!
The vision opened with a tough, tense and serious battle between two enemy-nations. Their enmity was actually not as result of physical offence, land conquest or a battle for earthly monarchical supremacy. No, the enmity that exists between these two nations was rooted in their spiritual allegiance: the two nations worship different deities who are avouched enemies of each other. One nation holds allegiance to Satan, the fallen prince of this present and passing evil world; the other nation serves the only true God, the Possessor of Heaven and earth. And because the deities are enemies, their followers automatically became enemy of themselves.
And so the battle begins…
The battle stage was set and the fight was set into motion. Shouts of war filled the air as glistering swords jostle against each other. In no time, slain bodies begin to liter the battle ground. One nation was gaining the upper hand and leading in victory. I wouldn’t have known the identities of the two nations involved in this fierce battle until I heard a loud cry from the camp of the losing side: “IS THERE NOT A VIRGIN IN ISRAEL?” At that moment, it dawned on me that it was Israel who was involved in the battle against their enemy. Israel was already losing to their enemy until the point of the loud, query voice asking if there was no virgin in Israel.
Within a short moment of time, a young, female virgin was presented, dressed in a white attire. Not quite long, this young virgin was later sent back to the battle front by the Commander of the armed forces of Israel to lead the nation to victory! It was so amazing that what armed men could not achieve, a young female virgin accomplished! How could an ordinary female virgin have accomplished that? THE COMMANDER OF THE ARMY OF ISRAEL WEAPONIZED HER!
As I woke up and search with the Holy Spirit what this could mean, I heard the Spirit said to me, “THE PRICE FOR VICTORY IN THIS END-TIME BATTLE IS A VIRGIN!
THE REALITY OF THE END-TIME BATTLE.
The birth of Jesus Christ, His victory over death, and His ascension to the throne of God have defeated Satan. The forces of God have already won a great and decisive triumph over Satan, the arch enemy of humanity. “And they overcame him (Satan) by the Blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. And they loved not their lives unto the death.” Revelation 12: 11.
The critical blow to Satan came when the Lamb, Jesus Christ, shed His Blood for our sins. The victory is won by sacrifice- Christ’s death in our place to pay the penalty for our sin, and the sacrifices we make because of our faith in Him.
But that’s not yet the end of the story. The dragon is defeated but not yet destroyed; he is wounded but not dead. And a wounded dragon is dangerous. Revelation 12:12 says, “Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short.”
Sometimes, when you see horrible things happening, you might think that Satan is winning. But is he? Satan is ferocious, not because he’s winning, but because he has already lost and he’s furious about it. Jesus has already won the decisive battle through his death and resurrection, and all Satan can do is try to cause as much trouble as he can in the time he has left. And he knows that he has but a little time. Hence, his restless, ruthless, and merciless attacks against the kingdom of Christ. But every of his operation becomes a platform for God to showcase the Victory of Christ over him through the church of Christ which is His Chosen Virgin.
The end time battle will not be won by the popular church. This end time battle will not be won by the sophisticated church either. The technological church will not triumph in this battle against the hordes of hell by its technology. Numerical factor will not be a factor in securing the last day victory against sin, Satan and the world system. Eloquence, oratory power and motivational speaking will not be potent enough to confront the intimidating darkness of this end-time. ONLY THE VIRGIN CHURCH (both as individuals and as a group) WILL PREVAIL in this last days’ fiend against Satan, the great adversary.
IS THERE NO VIRGIN IN ISRAEL?
Is there no virgin in Israel? This question comes to me and you. Is there no virgin in Israel? Why is sin and unrighteousness gaining the upper hand in the nations of the world? Is there no virgin in Israel? Why are church denominations and ministries rising on a geometric rate and godliness increasing in a slow proportion? Is there no virgin in Israel? Why are Christians many in numbers but weak in consciences and godly convictions? The line of distinction between professed Christians and the ungodly is now hardly distinguishable. Church members now love what the world loves and are ready to join with them, and Satan determines to unite them and thus strengthen his cause by sweeping all into the ranks of spiritual darkness. Is there no virgin in Israel? Why is bribery, corruption and nepotism taking the upper hand in the ivory towers? Is there no virgin in Israel? Why are our streets filled with violence and wickedness without any challenge? Is there no virgin in Israel? Why is true holiness become a very scarce commodity? Is there no virgin in Israel? why is the devil seems to be calling the shots in the world events?
The search in the heart of God now is for usable and available “virgins”; virgins through whom He can manifest His power. Virgins through whom He can quench the violence of the fire of the Nebuchadnezzar of today. God is in search of virgins through whom He can speak boldly and victoriously with the enemies at the gates of religion, economy, politics, entertainment and education. God is in search of His virgins today: virgins through whom he can shine the Light that will overcome the growing darkness of this end time. The enemy of Christ seems to be winning as we see the forces of darkness rising and advancing through worldwide apostasy and wickedness. And the Captain of our salvation is still asking by way of searching, “Is there no virgin in Israel? Is there no balm in Gilead? Why is the wound of the land not healed?”
WILL YOU BE THE VIRGIN FOR JESUS?
To be a virgin for Jesus is to be His Holy Bride. To be a virgin of Jesus is to be His Separate Saint. Virginity speaks of holiness, chastity and separation. Virgins are those who are separate from sin and iniquity; they are those who are cleansed from the lust of the flesh which war against the soul. Jesus’s virgins are those who are separate from worldly ambitions, passions and companions. To be a virgin of Jesus is to have your heart circumcised of the love of money, which many today, having coveted after, have pierced their souls with many sorrows. It was this same love of money that made the soldiers who were employed to guard the tomb of Jesus to lie against their conscience, conviction and calling as a soldier! Because of money, they changed the message of life to lie! To be the virgin of Jesus is to be separate from the church politics and business that have made Jesus turned His back and withdrawn His Presence from His Temple. To be the virgin of Jesus is to be willing to be alone in your convictions and to have few for your companions if need be. To be a virgin for Jesus is to be holy both in the private and in the public. To be the virgin Jesus can use is to hold the Word of God as the final Authority in all matters of life. Will you be the virgin Jesus is looking for to secure victory in this end time battle? Then here is the nonnegotiable price for anyone who dare to be a volunteer:
“Wherefore, COME OUT from AMONG THEM, and be ye SEPARATE, saith the LORD; and TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THING, and I will receive you. And I will be a Father unto you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.”
Would you be a virgin for Jesus to use this end-time? Would you be His battle axe? Then this is the condition in which those must be found who shall stand victoriously in this end-time of trouble: COME OUT FROM AMONG THE CHRIST-LESS CROWD. BE YE SEPARATE FROM THE WORLD AND THE CHURCH THAT HAS BECOME WORLDLY. TOUCH NOT THE UNCLEAN THINGS. AND GOD WILL RECEIVE YOU!
Our precious Saviour, the Captain of our Salvation invites us to join ourselves to Him, to unite our weakness to His matchless strength; our ignorance to His Wisdom, our unworthiness to His merits. It rests with us to pay the price of being separated unto Him. And if men could weaponized a virus to destroy many lives; God can weaponized you too to destroy the works of the devil and save many souls alive!
The Church of Christ is marching to victory and the gates of hell shall NOT prevail!
AMEN!
