Hello everyone, I welcome you to another day in this series in the name of Jesus Christ. We are still looking at THE DESCRIPTION OF THIS ARMY.
Let us continue from where we stopped yesterday.
'A great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations' Joel 2:2. Many great men have risen before now but, the challenges in these days and times require an army of Great Men. Hence, the call for the emergence of an army. They are not bunch of weaklings and powerless folks; No! They are a people great and strong. None like them before and after.
2:3 'A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them'.
They are faceless and nameless folks. The configuration of no one face was described.They are a people forged with fire and filled with fire. Fire burns in the front and just in case you escape that one, a flame burns at their back. They are men painted and coloured with the most destructive element; FIRE.
2:4 'The appearance of them is as the appearance of horses; and as horsemen, so shall they run'.
Their appearance is terrifying. They move with the strength greater than what any human being can muster.
2:5 'Like the noise of chariots on the tops of mountains shall they leap, like the noise of a flame of fire that devoureth the stubble, as a strong people set in battle array'.
This means that there is orderliness and serious coordination in this army. Even the sound wave that proceeds from them is the noise of a flame of fire.
2:6 'Before their face the people shall be much pained: all faces shall gather blackness'.
This is because of the fire burning before and behind them.
2:7 They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:
They will operate with supernatural strengths and accomplish many incredible feats. They are well coordinated; each soldier knows and follow the path set for him/her. No one will infringe into the assignment of the another. There is no competition amidst this army.
'Neither shall one thrust another; they shall walk every one in his path: and when they fall upon the sword, they shall not be wounded'.
It means this is an army where the LOVE OF GOD HAS FULLY FOUND EXPRESSION AMIDST THEM. One of the sadonic things that we see in the body of Christ nowadays is that Christians are rising against one another under all manners of reasons. Even though our views on scriptures and issues may be different, we must still know that WE BELONG TO THE SAME BODY.
Note:
As believers, our weapons of warfare are not meant for fighting fellow believers but the Enemy. Notice that your sword can hurt a fellow soldier but, the weapons of the Enemy cannot hurt you.
2:9 'They shall run to and fro in the city; they shall run upon the wall, they shall climb up upon the houses; they shall enter in at the windows like a thief'.
This is talking about teleportation and other forms of Supernatural travels. Walking through walls, translocation, etc.
2:10 'The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining':
This shows that this army has power over the nature and its constituents. They can maneuver the elements and bring them in subjection to the Will of God.
But, the big deal about them is THE VOICE OF THE LORD. This is what is responsible for all the incredible feats of this army.
Let me stop here today and continue tomorrow.
I am Olufemi Solomon.
