Last night the Lord gave me a dream in which there was a doctor who could not bring deliverance to a retired warrior. The doctor’s position was on his knees. The warrior was only partially clad with the preparation God had appointed to him. The doctor’s assistants tried to help the retired warrior in their own ways, which were full of legalism. No one could deliver the man.

In this dream the doctor represents the minister of God and his assistants are some intercessors who have fallen into ritualistic prayer and legalism. After this dream was interpreted I received a Word of prophecy as follows;

“If a man finds that he is tired of warring in the Spirit, and yet desires to have a gift from God, he is opened up to being deceived from his enemy. If that man lusts after fulfillment of what he can bring about through his own will, he will be deceived by his enemy. But if a man desires to see Me glorified, he will not be deceived, for he will give Me my sovereignty, and lay down his self-will.

Many warriors have developed self-help books full of techniques to conquer, heal, and obtain victories. The list is endless of how Man has tried to categorize what they should do to get Me to do what they think I should do. Did I not say this would happen, that Man would deny the sovereign God? Is it any wonder that the gifts Man covets to see in operation in the Church are not present? Man must give Me My sovereignty and not lift his teachings above the Word of God.

The power of God will not come because of the right prayers, nor because of the right amount of people praying. Your intercessors cannot deliver the Church of what it willfully wants. But you can turn the hearts of the warriors to the truth; that I am sovereign, and My army never retires. You can refresh the weary-hearted and give a cup of water to all saints, strong and weak alike. There are many things My own eyes see, that are watching My body struggle and fail in their attempts to deliver the Church into it’s inheritance. What I see is what is on My heart, though I am not deaf to your requests. What makes My heart heavy with sorrow is what I am confronting now with My Word. There will be teachers, prophets, and evangelists who will come with My messages of confrontation and restoration to the truth so that the body of Christ might make herself ready; the Bride. This is what is on My heart. This white wedding dress will be glorious, one in which I brag to all the hosts of satan “See, this is what I’ve been doing. You thought you defeated My plan, but look at her. Isn’t she all I said she would be?” The bride will be powerful, filled with every gift from above. And she will be dressed in white.” Amen. Come Lord Jesus.
