Messengers of Power
by Rick Joyner
There are a number of prophecies about ministries that are coming to do extraordinary exploits for the kingdom. These are true prophecies. Some of the most remarkable spiritual warriors the world has ever known are being prepared to do some of the greatest spiritual exploits of all time. Yet, very few will ever know who they are. They would not have it any other way.
One of the closest parallels to these extraordinary ministries is the U.S. Army Delta force. Officially, the Army does not admit that the Delta Force exists. Members of this unit tend to have long hair, look and act like civilians, not soldiers. They eschew basic military protocol, like uniforms and saluting officers. The Commander is called by his first name, even by the lowest ranking enlisted men. Yet, they are the world best fighters.
When youre the best you simply do not need titles and rank. The leaders of this unit lead because they are leaders. If a sergeant has the greatest knowledge or expertise of an assignment, hes the leader of it and the colonel will follow his lead. You only get this good by rising above ego to focus on one thing---getting the job done.
Delta Force operatives do not want anyone to know who they are. To become known would only hinder their ability to do their job. They are some of the most heroic soldiers, and carry out the most dangerous missions, but never receive public credit for it. They dont want such credit because it would only hinder their ability to do the next job, which is what they live for.
There are Christians who are presently being prepared for just such a force. They will be the best of the best, but very few will know who they are. They will be used to do great exploits, but you will not find these exploits written about in newsletters and talked about on television. They dont need or care for rank or titles because they are so confident in the authority given to them by the King. They know they are known in heaven, and there care little for the credit or recognition they may receive on earth.
The ones I am writing about here are the mighty ones that Enoch prophesied about (see Jude:14-16). No ministry, mission, or church on earth has ever struck fear into the camp of the enemy like these will. They will wreak havoc on the evil strongholds of this world. They will fill stadiums and set nations free, with only a few ever knowing who they are. They are not here to be known, but to do a job. Their whole ambition is to hear the King say,Well done, good and faithful servantMatthew 25:23 NIV).
These are the nameless, faceless ones who are already among us. There may be one or two in your church. There may even be one in your family. You may even be one called to this.
