I awoke recently to the words, "strengthen the corners. strengthen the corners." I had a picture of a box being wrapped continuously by a roll of blue painter's tape -- around & around the sides of the box (tape going parallel to the floor). This led me to consider the march around Jericho. I looked up "corner" in Webster's. It's a noun & a verb. First the nouns: "Either of the 4 angles of a boxing ring. Especially the area in which a boxer rests or is worked on by his seconds during periods between rounds." (Obviously, we are in a battle - although continuous, there are "rounds" - breaks/rests (praise GOD!) in between.. Pray for refreshment & profound recovery, provision, etc. for all the warrior Bride, both to strengthen (increase/fortify) with more prayer warriors and also with more warring angels to fight with us & ministering angels to encourage & re-establish us between rounds). Praise GOD we are not fighting alone!! Next: "A private, secret or remote place." (Now more than ever, we must Fight! to keep on meeting privately with the Father, our Lord, & His gracious & mighty Holy Spirit. We must establish a set place - a prayer closet - a certain area of our "inner room" - a regular place & time(s).. Morning, Evening & every chance we get in between. The battle is now so fierce, & will get heavier -- we must strengthen ourselves - privately - face to face with our Lord. Every day. Every night. All day long. Pray continually. Repent daily. There must be no speck of dirt on our wedding gowns! The more we rest/repent in quietness & trust, the more His Light cleanses & invigorates us - this is where He trains our hands for battle, as Scripture says.) "Control or ownership of enough of the available supply of a commodity or security especially to permit manipulation of the price." (I believe this one is sinister. We must stand firm against this & prepare provisions as we are led, as we have been warned a severe famine is on its way). "A point at which significant change occurs -- often used in the phrase, "turn the corner." At Hand: Imminent." (Chills. Holy Spirit chills. A call to Pray!! as never before.) Now the verbs: "To Corner: To drive; to catch & hold the attention of, especially to force an interview." (We must strengthen our personal resolve to Respond to the Lord's leading.. We must keep our attention keenly Focused upon Him. He has done & provided Everything!! we need for this battle -- we must not weary Him by remaining slow to respond -- we must eat, sleep, pray & work now always in our full spiritual armor - never letting our guard down. Nehemiah 4:18 - work with one hand & hold our sword in the other -- only now it's time to keep the sword out of its sheath!!)

[I recently received a list of 8 tools for spiritual warfare - I printed it out and find it useful.

Here are the 8 tools:

Fasting - Isaiah 58:6-7

Prayer - 1 John 3:19; Ephesians 5:17

Praise & Worship - Acts 16:25-26

Meditation - Psalms 1:1

Word of God - 2 Timothy 2:15

Resistance - James 4:7; 1 Peter 2:5; 1 John 5:18

Association - Hebrews 10:25; 2 Corinthians 6:17

Accountability - Amos 3:3] "To get a corner on; to corner the market"

(GOD has always held the corner on the market!! HalleluYAH!! HalleluYAH!! This is our battle cry!! HalleluYAH!! The battle is the LORD'S!! It is Finished!! We must joyfully proclaim HIS victory, every moment of the battle. HE has become the Chief CORNERSTONE!! The Stone the builders rejected!! HE has Always had the corner of the market -- of all Creation -- HE IS the Corner!! And all of creation will either fall willingly on This CornerStone & be broken (so that He may then purify & use us to His glory) or else This CornerStone will fall on them who try to remain separate from Him - to be crushed & rendered useless & in torment for all eternity..) Bless you, Brothers & Sisters! May all of your loved ones come to the LORD soon/today!/now!! This is not a drill -- please remember, you are not alone -- we all need each other more than ever to lift us up in prayer for protection, peace & provision in order to fulfill the purpose for which we were created (like Esther: for such a time as this.) I'm praying that we will all seek HIS Face as much as possible - in praise, worship & petition -and that the sleeping or lukewarm Bride will Awaken and pick up their sword!!
