On September 30, 2020, I saw in a vision of something I could not shake.
A swarm of flaming locusts sweeping across the globe.
Not cute. Violent swarm carried by the wind.
Not symbolic in some shallow religious way.
It was violent in purity.
Ordered in movement.
Terrifying in holiness.
A living picture of a people seized by God and carried by wind.
Then I heard the Lord say:
“Even so must My people be. Prepare. Make ready. For there comes a final mighty wind of My Spirit to launch you as a flaming army.”
I have carried that word for years.
Quietly.
Carefully.
Soberly.
Because not every vision is meant to be posted the moment it is seen.
Some things must sit in the fear of the Lord long enough to burn the pride out of the messenger.
And I am saying this now with trembling:
I believe the time of preparation is narrowing.
God is not raising up a casual people for a casual hour.
He is not gathering performers.
He is not anointing ambition.
He is not breathing on religious noise.
He is preparing a people who know how to wait until the wind comes.
Because locusts do not move alone.
They move in swarms.
They move by timing.
They move with a force greater than themselves.
And when the wind takes them, what was hidden becomes unstoppable.
That is what I believe the Spirit of God is doing in the earth.
He is forming a flaming army in the secret place.
Not famous people.
Faithful people.
Not polished people.
Prepared people.
Not people addicted to platforms.
People who have been burned clean at the altar.
This is not the hour for borrowed oil.
This is not the hour for loud mouths and empty lamps.
This is not the hour to jump because something looks exciting.
This is the hour to discern the wind of God.
To know when to wait.
To know when to move.
To know when to leap.
Jeremiah 51:10–16 speaks of the Lord bringing forth His righteousness and calling His people to declare His work.
Nahum 3:14–17 speaks of preparation, siege, fire, locusts, and scattering.
There is a pattern here for those with ears to hear.
Preparation before release.
Fire before movement.
Discernment before assignment.
Formation before harvest.
And hear me clearly:
The darkness we are called to confront must first be burned out of us.
Because an unpurified vessel cannot carry holy fire without turning it into strange fire.
So I am praying this again.
Lord, prepare us.
Strip the laziness out of us.
Burn the compromise out of us.
Deliver us from spiritual performance.
Teach us to discern what is You and what is only noise wearing Your language.
Give us timing to jump so the wind can take us
Give us obedience.
Give us holy fire.
Let the mighty wind of Your Spirit come upon a prepared people.
Make us one body.
One swarm.
One flaming army.
Not to be seen.
To be sent.
Not to make a name.
To bear Your name.
Not to destroy people.
To destroy darkness.
Not to consume souls with control.
To gather souls into the harvest of Jesus Christ.
This is not hype.
This is warning.
This is preparation.
This is the sound before the wind.
I’ve seen enough to stay awake.
I love enough to warn.
I fear God enough to speak.
This is THE WATCH
