The thing that I love about Brandi is that her love for others is great. Brandi is a one-two punch, though; a "double whammy" if you're feeling spicy. Her love for others is great, but so is her heart for true justice, the kind of justice that only God can fulfill. This word is definitely in step with that. It is just as much a rallying cry to the remnant Church that the time is now to TAKE GROUND from the enemy, as it is a message to those aligning with the powers of darkness. Their time of reckoning is now. The twelfth hour has come. (To Subscribe to the Elijah List subscribe here.)

Satan's Sound Waves Are Coming to Nothing
There is a RUMBLE upon us on the earth right now. Rumble is defined as: "to make a deep, long, rolling sound." The remnant and the earth are crying out with a sound that has grown louder and louder, and has begun to resonate with a resonance that cannot be stopped. The Lord is diligent to watch over His promises and His words. The twelfth hour is upon us – the bowls filled with our prayers are now tipping!
I see sound waves coming from the cry of the remnant for justice, and that cry is louder and stronger than the push back of those being used by satan to walk out his agenda. The sound waves of the remnant are pushing back the darkness to where satan's sound waves are coming to NOTHING.
Justice in the Twelfth Hour
I say again, let not your hearts be troubled, because it is the twelfth hour. Justice is at hand! Let the righteous be glad! God has been exalted and is now beginning to reckon with things from His throne, and the plans of the enemy are turning into absolute confusion. God is NOW in the business of RECKONING!
One of Wikipedia's definitions of reckoning is: "The working out of consequences or retribution for one's actions." We cry out for mercy to be had on those who have been influenced to sin by the powers of darkness, but we also come into agreement with the plans of the Lord for justice to be brought forth speedily. Proverbs 21:15 in the Amplified Classic version states, "When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous (the upright, in right standing with God), but to the evildoers it is dismay, calamity, and ruin."
Leave the Old Man Behind
It is a time for RESURRECTION. There are dreams that many have laid down and given to God, allowing Him to bring them to life when the timing is right. We will now begin to see the fulfillment of many people's dreams that they have had for their lives for many years.
God is in the business of fulfilling long-awaited promises regarding each of our destinies! While it is a time that the Lord is fulfilling promises for His faithful saints, delivering justice for the righteous, and administering judgment upon those that are intent on doing evil, it is also a time of PURIFICATION for the Body of Christ.

As we approach Passover, we are to remember that this is a sobering time where we are to submit all of our flesh to die on the Cross. Then, we will be reconciled to Jesus and RESURRECTED with a NEW authority and fresh POWER, just in time to be RENEWED for the great harvest that is coming in as God ushers forth justice and judgment in this season! It's time for the saints to put on their Ephesians 6 armor, walk in their callings, and leave the old man behind! We need each and every saint ready for battle, operating in his and her FULLEST potential!
Distraction Through Accusation
While the Lord is REFINING us through this time of purification, satan's agenda is to distract us from the purification process by causing us to focus on feeling condemned for the things we have done, or for things we have never done. BE SOBER and AWARE of the schemes of the enemy right now! He is bringing many ACCUSATIONS against the righteous – which to me is HILARIOUS.
Satan's plans for this nation and for our lives are failing, and so he is literally having to MAKE THINGS UP to accuse the children of God with. Do not be surprised if you are experiencing accusations from those around you, or if satan has been reminding you of things that you once did before you were crucified with Christ. He is simply attempting to distract us from the beautiful purification and refinement process, which God is gently and graciously taking us through right now, so that we can arise in RESURRECTION POWER!
Spiritually Alive With "Life-Joy"
We must get to the point where we become THRILLED when we are being falsely accused of something! Let's take a look at a couple of scriptures briefly:
"Blessed [morally courageous and spiritually alive with life-joy in God's goodness] are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil things against you because of [your association with] Me" (Matthew 5:11, AMP). (Photo via Unsplash)
I LOVE that one of the ideas behind the word "blessed" is to be "spiritually alive with life-joy in God's goodness"!
1 Peter 3:9 talks about accusation as well, and what our response should be to this as Christians. Here it is in the Amplified version: "and never return evil for evil or insult for insult [avoid scolding, berating, and any kind of abuse], but on the contrary, give a blessing [pray for one another's well-being, contentment, and protection]; for you have been called for this very purpose, that you might inherit a blessing [from God that brings well-being, happiness, and protection]."
This verse teaches us that every time we are falsely accused, belittled etc., if we bless those that are committing the act against us, we actually are being set up for promotion. Satan's plans become our footstool, something that we can use to move forward and rest upon. What the enemy accuses us of to try to pull us down, God will use to launch us forward into resurrection power!
I pray that we operate ever-increasingly in discernment; that we are able to identify the plans of the enemy before they ever manifest in the natural. I declare that we will bless with the truth and the fullness of Christ those that are allowing satan to work through them, and that we will now grow closer to the likeness of Jesus more than ever before.
We will now go UP and not down, as satan would try to get us to do. We will operate in the fullness of His resurrection power, halting the plans of the enemy in their tracks. I look forward to moving up, and up, and up WITH each of you!
