NOTE: This is an immediate “follow-up” message from our Lord, to us – His church, from the previous message released earlier this month concerning Inauguration Day. Please read and heed His words, and let’s set ourselves to obey all that He expects of us [as His church] on this day. Join me live via YouTube today at 12pm ET as I share a more expansive version of this message (@messengeroftheking). 

“Attention my church! I need your full attention please! This is the Lord your God with a follow-up message and warning to you, concerning this post-Inauguration Day period of time. With the official change of presidency now at hand, things that were brewing beforehand will now begin to commence – sooner than later. 

I’ve warned you before that there will be much unrest to follow…and tensions will only continue to build until they all will ‘explode’ into what will become a lengthy period of unavoidable conflict between mankind. 

You should know that there is much evil on the horizon…and the enemy and his evil forces are prepared to unleash a great battle and launch an unprecedented warfare upon My people, like what you’ve never seen before. So, I say to you, My church – it’s time to stand guard, fully armored, and engage in a continual posture of prayer. 

It’s time to go to war and fight against the evil the enemy will soon unleash! You must never lose sight of the fact that you do not fight against flesh and blood – what you see…but you fight against the evil forces of darkness and spiritual wickedness in heavenly places – the unseen! You cannot fight the unseen with natural weapons; you will surely lose this fight! You must fight the unseen with My weapons of warfare, My armor! Pick up your spiritual swords and fight back mightily! Do not lose or put down your shields of faith…you must wear your belts of truth at all times…do not take off your breastplates of righteousness at any time, no matter how heavy it gets…and tighten up your helmets of salvation so they do not come off! Polish up your shoes so that your feet remain shod in preparation for My Great Gospel of peace! You must have on your entire armor, to be properly and adequately suited up for this fight; you do not have the option to leave anything off, or you will certainly risk being killed in action. I’ve warned you before – the battles to come will be fierce, and the casualties will be high…but be very careful that you do not be among the casualties of this war! Do not ignore this warning to get yourselves into a position of prayer and armoring yourselves…this will become an all-out war between good and evil, and everything I have just told you is how you must be prepared to fight and overcome this time of great evil, with good.

I say to you, My church – what will you allow to win? Good, or evil? Each of you must decide for yourselves what you will allow to win…it may look and feel as though evil is prevailing, but you must remember My word that ‘the gates of hell shall not prevail against My church’. You must also remember that I’ve called you, My church, as more than conquerors, for I always cause you to triumph in Me! Remember Me as the Greater One who lives inside of you, who is Infinitely Greater than the evil one in this world! Remember My words, for they are true…remind yourselves that you are indeed strong in Me and in My mighty power!

Again, My church, you must be ever sober-minded and vigilant, in a perpetual posture of prayer, as you set yourselves to fight and overcome evil with good…don’t be like the many who will lose sight of My word and begin to fight evil with evil – and become eternal casualties of war…and don’t be like the many who will ignore this warning and not fight at all; and you don’t want to be like the many who will initially set themselves to fight, but surrender and give in when the battle becomes too fierce – all these people will end up as prisoners and casualties of war!

Again, I warn you – do not be like them! Be like the few who will fight this good fight of faith and endure to the end for their salvation’s sake! More than anything, pray without ceasing. Watch, fight and pray – for the pivotal time and hour of war has come…watch, fight, and pray continually, and always, says the Lord your God! Those who do so will win…and all who win will not fail to receive a crown of eternal life that will diligently await them. I, the Lord, have spoken – and I declare these words to be so, in My name and for My glory…Amen and Amen!, says the Lord your God!“

Prayer: Father God, I pray for everyone who reads these words, to read and heed Your clarion call to them today. I pray that we, Your people, will set ourselves towards unity and being of “one accord”, and shun division and quarreling with each other. I pray that You will help us to overcome all manner of hatred and evil, with love. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen!
