The Lord has been speaking powerfully through the sky and He is emphasizing the need for prayer and seeking His face.

My husband and I traveled the other day and the Lord began to speak to me as we were in the plane. For a moment I fell asleep, but then God woke me up and began to reveal Himself through the clouds as I was taken into the Spirit. He had a conversation with me, which I will now share with you…

“Wake up, Sharlene! Look, what do you see?”

I responded by saying, “I see the wing of the plane.”

“Look beyond the plane. Now, what do you see?”

“I see a mass amount of clouds together. It looks like a massive amount of people.”

“Yes, My daughter, these are My people of the earth as far as the eye can see.”

But it looked like there was a face of what seemed to be oppression over them, which caused my heart to be saddened and concerned. I know He allowed me to see this to feel His heart and His love for His people of the earth.

He then said to me, “Now look further into the distance and look higher, what do you see?”

“Wow!!! It looks like the Holy City as far as the eye can see. It is beautiful and shining brightly with gold.”

“Yes, the Lord replied, “When you see from my perspective, which is the higher perspective, it is completely different than what you would perceive it to be.”

As I viewed it I was in awe of the majesty and beauty of it! It was also very peaceful and glorious.

“Now, look over there,” He said. “What do you see?”

I responded by saying, “It looks like a body of water, and then it looks like a troop of angels blowing horns. In front of the Holy City.”

“Good, my daughter. Now look over there, what do you see?”

I looked and said, “I see what looks to be a large wall with a split in the middle.”

He was quiet after my response, as if it was a moment of selah, for me to really meditate on what He was showing me and look again.

Then I got a quickening in the Spirit that this could be the was the ripped veil. I know that the sacrifice of Jesus, caused the veil to be ripped. Through Him we can get to the Father.

I said, “It is the ripped veil, but nobody is there Lord.”

Then He said, “Yes, you are seeing well, My daughter. This is what I have granted to mankind…complete and clear access to get to me through the sacrifice of my Son, by prayer, and with the help and accompaniment of angels, but nobody is truly utilizing the access I have given them.”

Then He led me to the following scriptures:

“I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, BUT I FOUND NO ONE” (Ezekiel 22:30).

“The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. HE SAW THAT THERE WAS NO ONE, He was appalled that THERE WAS NO ONE TO INTERVENE; so His own arm achieved salvation for Him, and His own righteousness sustained Him” (Isaiah 59:15-16).

With this scripture, I realized that this scene was a combination and symbolic of the ripped veil and the gapped wall. The scriptures that the Lord led me to reveals that He is looking for intercessors. That means we are to stand in the gap for others at the wall of prayer. We are to stand on their behalf by bearing their burdens through intercession to prevent destruction. This can only be done through the name and power of Jesus. But we have to be present and in position.

He said, “Now look there, what do you see?”

I observed what He was showing me and then answered Him by saying, “I see someone behind them in the clouds in the posture of prayer. But at the same time, it looks like that person is blowing a horn.”

I understand that our prayers are our sound and our means of communication to stay connected with Him in the heavens. It is the horn that God has placed within us.

He answered by saying, “Yes, now look at the angels.”

“They look like they are moving forward in fighting mode towards something. And there is one angel that is bigger than the rest with fierceness on his face and a sword in his hand.”

The visual of this angel was from the shoulders up. But he was very large in comparison with the other angels around him.

I didn’t hear the Lord say anything after this, I began to realize that He wanted me to selah in the moment and just observe and take note of what I was seeing. Then, as the clouds were moving, I looked closer to see what was happening with the angels. They were moving forward to something. They moved forward slowly. But as more clouds popped up in the position of prayer, it was the more strength they received to fight, and the faster they began to move forward to the battle.

Opposite of them, I saw a cloud of darkness and a portion of it was in the shape of a large dark angel. This dark angel had wings that were pointed, and the wings of this was bigger than the body. Behind this dark angel were little imps in position to fight.

Amazingly, I noticed the angels of the Lord were way bigger than the opposing angels. Also, the angel that I previously mentioned that I saw from the shoulders up, was larger than the other angels of the Lord and it was on the frontline. It looked like it was in leadership and could make commands to the others angels. I wondered if this was Michael the archangel. He had a bandana wrapped around his long wavy hair and fierceness in his eyes and arms of strength.

Then I began to see more clouds pop up in various places in the posture of prayer. They began to ascend and increase in size. Then, more of the same started popping up everywhere. The Lord showed me that these clouds ascending in the position of prayer were the praying people of the earth. The more they prayed is the taller they became in size and the more power was granted to make changes in the Spirit. It’s as if the prayers of the people of the earth directed the angels of God to take action.

When this happened, the angels of God began to proceed forward towards the angel of darkness and the smaller dark angels. They charged with courageousness and boldness. Every movement they made in battle was strategic! They moved forward and began to fight the dark angels in power, with unity, confidence, courageousness, triumph, and victory! The dark angels were no match to the angels of the Lord. The good angels continued to pursue the enemy. The dark angels were kicked into the air and some were flying backwards.Then I saw the remaining dark angels turn the other direction, running away in fear like a dog that has been defeated. The darkness cleared away until the darkness was no more.

I was amazed to see how dependent the angels were on the prayers of the people. I was also proud to see that the victory was won. I began to truly see how heaven and earth are connected through prayer, how important our prayers are, and why it is necessary for us to be in position, persistent, and strategic with prayer. I also see how important it for us to utilize the access God has granted to us to stand in our rightful position, and know the authority and power God has given us through the powerful weapon of prayer.

After this, I saw the clouds disperse.

I asked God, “Why did the clouds separate all over like that?”

God said, “These are My people that have been dispersed throughout the earth. But I am gathering them back to me.”

When He said this I felt a stong feeling of assurance, security, and comfort within my spirit that that God has a great plan to make sure His promise comes to pass. I then saw a huge cloud that looked like the Spirit of God, and it swept over the whole scenery until I only saw the cloud itself.

I realized that God was saying that His Spirit will cover the whole earth.

After this scene, I was no longer in the Spirit and back to myself after having this conversation with the Lord. But the Lord left the impression on my heart and urgency within my Spirit to share this experience with His people. So they too may also have this knowledge and urgency… that He is calling us all to a necessary place of intercession and prayer.

An alarm has been sounded in the heavens through the trumpets and the angels are in position to fight the war. But we, the servants of God on earth, are out of position. As I saw the war in the heavens between the angels of heaven and the angels of darkness, in the sky, I realized there is a real battle taking place in the spirit. It is the Kingdom of God verses the kingdom of darkness. The enemy and his little coherts are attempting to gain ground, because the prayers of the saints are not where it should be. In the realm of the Spirit, God has assigned to each believer in Christ a specific position in heaven make victorious changes through our prayers and by the power of JESUS. However, based on the open vision, God showed me that there are many of those specific positions are abandoned, vacant, and empty. That is because we have been out of position.

We have the authority to pray and the heavens are waiting for our sound but there is little to no sound coming from earth from us. God has given us access through Jesus but it has not truly been utilized to the fullest extent. There is a spiritual & natural attack that is happening right now. Especially with His holy nation Israel. I was reminded of the Holy City that God showed me in the beginning of this encounter with Him through the sky. So I know, that we are supposed to intercede on behalf of Israel. We are not utilizing the access to Him as we really need to intercede. God is waiting, the heavenly hosts are waiting, and the trumpets of urgency has sounded in the heavens, but we need to hear the sound and assemble in prayer. Time is of the essence!

We need to occupy that place and that position of prayer here on earth, so things can happen in the heavens, in order to be released back on earth. Victory is ours but it has to be claimed through our labor in prayer and intercession. We have access to make the changes but we have to awaken and release our sound.

God is giving us forewarning of what is happening in the realm of the Spirit. It is time to make use of this time by taking position in prayer and releasing our sound! The battle is won, but we have to take it by force through prayer!
