THE PROCESSION OF ONES FORGED IN FIRE

There is a work and movement of the Holy Spirit, now underway, to undergird the dynamics of the last days. God is doing deep work within a community of sons and daughters, transforming them into a fierce and courageous company for the intense challenges of the times. He is building and shaping them as sons of God in the likeness of David’s mighty men—men who fight with both the right hand and the left. They are battle-ready, forged in fire with the One who dwells in fire. They love and serve the Lord with their whole heart and are willing to give their lives for Him, as David’s men were willing to do for him.

“So the three mighty men broke through the camp of the Philistines, drew water from the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate, and took it and brought it to David. Nevertheless he would not drink it, but poured it out to the LORD.” 2 Samuel 23:16

They emerge during a period of great turrmoil on the earth, when a great cry rises from the Earth before God. Just as in the time of their exodus from Egypt, when God heard the people’s cry and sent Moses as a deliverer, He is now raising up an army of deliverers.

During the time of the judges, Israel lost its standing and began to worship idols, which led to their defeat. Their cry for help prompted God to send deliverers—men and women who carried the authority of the Lord’s word, drove back the enemy, and brought His people back to Him. We see a similar pattern in these times.

“But when they cried out to the LORD, he raised up for them a deliverer, Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, who saved them. The Spirit of the LORD came on him…” Judges 3:9-10

So, it will happen in this hour; God will send a multitude of deliverers. As the cry grows louder on Earth and the conflict escalates—when “the devil has come down…having great wrath, because he knows that he has a short time” (Rev. 12:12)—God will release the sons of God—an army of deliverers.

The Earth is experiencing great upheaval—storms that signal a new age is upon us—the coming reign of the King on Earth. “For behold, the LORD comes with ten thousands of His saints, to execute judgment…” (Jude 1:14–15). He does not come alone. He comes with a company—aligned, prepared, and resolute. They move in the reality of Mahanaim—the war dance of two camps (Genesis 32:1–2). Heaven and earth in coordinated movement—the armies of God moving with the King of kings in precision and authority.

Rather than being focused on revival and personal needs and comfort, this tribe is in the trenches, being trained in fire in obscurity to become deeply rooted in Yahweh. Signs and wonders, as magnificent and wonderful as they are, as they give evidence of the reality of God, do not lay a foundation for the enduring warrior.

If these things become the sole focus, they can produce a shallow Christianity that collapses under the challenges of Earth’s turmoil. Many will continue to live from a place of immaturity, centred on personal needs, seeking constant affirmation.

However, a mighty army is now rising, tempered by storms, strengthened in faith, fearing God alone, and established in honour. They live guided by eternal realities, under the authority of the Messiah’s power. They possess a conscious awareness of the Messiah that transcends time, bringing eternal dimensions into the current reality and demonstrating to principalities and powers the Lord’s multidimensional and multifaceted wisdom (Eph.3:10).

The world system stands in opposition to God, and the extent to which it influences His House and His people reflects the degree of poverty of spirit it will have (1 John 2:15–17). When confronted with an adversarial world system supported by diabolical forces, a weak Christianity that hasn’t been refined in the fire… with the God of Fire—the One who is a Consuming Fire—cannot stand against it!

What is now being formed is a people free from that mixture. Only what has been forged in fire endures. Isaiah speaks directly into this reality:

“The sinners in Zion are afraid; Fearfulness has seized the hypocrites: “Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?” He who walks righteously and speaks uprightly, He who despises the gain of oppressions, Who gestures with his hands, refusing bribes, Who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed, And shuts his eyes from seeing evil: He will dwell on high; His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks; Bread will be given him, His water will be sure. Your eyes will see the King in His beauty; They will see the land that is very far off.” Isaiah 33:14-17

FIRE FALLS ON THE SACRIFICE!

The issue is transformation. This is the company being prepared for the hour. They are a people who do not fear the fire—because they have been formed by it. On this army, soaked in the water of the Word of God, the fire of God will fall.

An altar has been prepared in the lives and their hearts of these saints. Like Elijah, God will answer with fire. The fire will fall an consume the sacrifice of their lives.

“Then the fire of the LORD fell and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood and the stones and the dust, and it licked up the water that was in the trench. Now when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, “The LORD, He is God! The LORD, He is God!” 1 Kings. 18:38

The One Fire, which is Yahweh …formed in 12, fell on 120 on Pentecost. That same Fire is preparing to fall once again on a large number fully surrendered to God, formed in the likeness of Lord Sabaoth. God responds to the sacrificial offering of their lives with Fire from the Throne! As they war with the King, they carry His praise in their mouths:

“Let the praises of God be in their mouths, and a sharp sword in their hands—to execute vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, to bind their kings with shackles and their leaders with iron chains, to execute the judgment written against them. This is the glorious privilege of his faithful ones. Praise the LORD!” Psalm 149:6

This is their portion. This is their privilege.

The route toward Glory may not be an easy one!

But it is certain.
