America, from this day forward you shall wave the checkered flag and you shall go to victory lane, for My remnant has been running the race and has been fighting the good fight of faith on your behalf and have been the watchmen on the wall, interceding for you day and night. You know the saying “everything is bigger in Texas” — but I Am saying I Am bigger! I Am bigger than every onslaught the enemy has implemented and planned against the people of Texas. Texas is Mine just as America is Mine!
Texas is the second-largest state among the 50 U.S. states, and naturally, is heavily populated. It is the second-most populous state after California. Texas would be the 40th largest country, if it was still an independent country. Also, the state leads in productivity―a big beef producer, largest cotton producer, leading in oil production, and also in the technology and space industry. It is located in the south-central part of the country, and hence it has a perfect blend of various flora and fauna.
Texas fought for independence from 1835 – 1836. The nickname originated because of only one star present on the 1836 flag of the Republic of Texas. It appeared in many other variations at that time. Texas was an independent country for a while, and then became a part of the Union on December 29, 1845. Some people also say that the star signified Texans’ wish to be a different state. It is also said that the star was a representation of how Texas was the only brave state to demand its own rights from Mexico. The original “Lone Star” came into existence in 1821. Henry Smith, the Governor of the Mexican Providence of Texas, was signing some important papers, which made him realize that Texas needed a seal. His overcoat had five-pointed stars on the buttons, so he immediately cut one and stamped it on the documents. And, that’s how the star actually came on the seal of Texas. On the Texas flag, the blue stripe on the left stands for loyalty, the white star is the “Lone Star”, and the color red represents courage. The star has five points, one point for each letter of the state name (TEXAS). (Source: https://historyplex.com/why-is-texas-called-lone-star-state)
Beloved, the enemy may think that he is invading the “Lone Star” state but I say, “Texas, you are NOT alone!” I Am fighting for you! I Am pouring out My Spirit upon all flesh in the people of your state. I have been priming My remnant for the fire of revival to be ignited in Texas. I have heard the cries of My remnant in America for My deliverance and for My justice to be done and I Am answering with the power of My love and the fire of My Spirit. I have sent My hosts of angels on assignment as reinforcements and My angel armies are taking charge of the border, for I Am placing My angelic border protection around America. And it shall be an impenetrable hedge of protection. Take heart, Texas, and hold the line because help is on the way! I Am your ever-present help in trouble.
I know that the fight has been long and the enemy has tried to infiltrate and take over your state. This has not been your first battle and it shall not be your last one. Take heart because I shall ensure that the enemy shall be driven back and that he shall be defeated once again, for My America is being strengthened and fortified and she shall continue to wave her flag of freedom with My glory. The American flag shall no longer be known as “Old Glory” but “New Glory.”
My beloved Texas, even though it may look like the odds are stacked against you, and the situation looks impossible — I have not forgotten you — but know that I Am for you and, just as I gave Gideon’s army the victory against the Midianites, so it shall be with you. Beloved, this is not the time to retreat back into the cave and hide out like Gideon did, using the winepress to thresh the wheat because of the spirit of fear in the land. It is time to get off the fence of compromise with the spirits of jezebel and baal, be bold and courageous and tear down the altars of baal.
Build Me an altar of worship, beloved. Draw near to Me and I shall draw near to you and I shall give you the peace and the grace you need to win — for the weapons of your warfare are not carnal, but mighty through Me, the Lord you God, to the pulling down of strongholds.
Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. - Ephesians 6:13 - NKJV
23 Then the Lord said to him, “Peace be with you; do not fear, you shall not die.” 24 So Gideon built an altar there to the Lord, and called it The-Lord-Is-Peace. To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites. - Judges 6 23-24 - NKJV
Texas, you are the “honey pot” of America — the bright and shining star of freedom, prosperity and independence — and the enemy has overplayed his hand against you. He shall no longer try to kill, steal and destroy your land. Texas, you may be the Lone Star state, but you are a land of milk and honey - blessed to be a blessing to many and your citizens are people of great valor, just like Gideon!
Just like with Gideon, I shall require you to separate those who are willing to stay in the fight from those who are still deceived by the spirit of fear. Believe Me when I say that you have a remnant who has been fighting for you and with you in the spirit. Take heart, Texas, because there are many more that are for you than there are against you. The people of America -- those who are after My own heart -- are standing with you. Your loyalty to Me, to the people of your state and to the people of America is being tested in this hour, and you shall overcome, for you are refusing to live in fear, and you are continuing to stand in My perfect faith.
2 And the Lord said to Gideon, “The people who are with you are too many for Me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel claim glory for itself against Me, saying, ‘My own hand has saved me.’ 3 Now therefore, proclaim in the hearing of the people, saying, ‘Whoever is fearful and afraid, let him turn and depart at once from Mount Gilead.’ ” And twenty-two thousand of the people returned, and ten thousand remained. - Judges 6:2-3 - NKJV
4 But the Lord said to Gideon, “The people are still too many; bring them down to the water, and I will test them for you there. Then it will be, that of whom I say to you, ‘This one shall go with you,’ the same shall go with you; and of whomever I say to you, ‘This one shall not go with you,’ the same shall not go.” 5 So he brought the people down to the water. And the Lord said to Gideon, “Everyone who laps from the water with his tongue, as a dog laps, you shall set apart by himself; likewise everyone who gets down on his knees to drink.” 6 And the number of those who lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, was three hundred men; but all the rest of the people got down on their knees to drink water. 7 Then the Lord said to Gideon, “By the three hundred men who lapped I will save you, and deliver the Midianites into your hand. Let all the other people go, every man to his place.” - Judges 6:4-7 - NKJV
Texas, things may be heating up in your state, but I have sent to you My trumpet, My anointed, My David, My mouthpiece and My prophet to remind you of My goodness, My mercy and My faithfulness. I have sent him to Texas this week to announce, to declare and to decree your victory over the enemy. Behold, for this is bringing fear and confusion into the enemy’s camp because they see the writing on the wall. The wicked are fleeing to their demonic stronghold of Washington DC in a desperate attempt to regroup, to worship their demon god, baal, to plan new strategies against My Texas and My America, but these plans shall be exposed and they shall all be thwarted.
Beloved, I shall reveal to you My divine strategies and My countermoves that you will need to defeat the enemy. Remember, beloved, that I Am always thousands of steps ahead of the enemy of your soul for I see the end from the beginning and I have already gone before you.
13 And when Gideon had come, there was a man telling a dream to his companion. He said, “I have had a dream: To my surprise, a loaf of barley bread tumbled into the camp of Midian; it came to a tent and struck it so that it fell and overturned, and the tent collapsed.” 14 Then his companion answered and said, “This is nothing else but the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel! Into his hand God has delivered Midian and the whole camp.” - Judges 6:13-14 - NKJV
18 When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then you also blow the trumpets on every side of the whole camp, and say, ‘The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!’ ” - Judges 6:18 - NKJV
Texas, I shall use you to help lead the charge against the demonic spirits of baal and jezebel in this hour. Beloved, war with My Word and worship Me in spirit and in Truth, for you shall see many breakthroughs and they shall begin in Texas and spill over to the rest of America. The dam is breaking in the spirit and My Spirit is rushing in like a flood. You are at the epicenter of the battle, but I shall give you the victory and all shall know that it was done by My hand, the Lord your God. Nothing can stop what I Am doing and bringing forth. My will and My justice shall be done and the wicked shall be no more!
And the Lord said to him, “Surely I will be with you, and you shall defeat the Midianites as one man.” - Judges 6:16 - NKJV
For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more; Indeed, you will look carefully for his place, But it shall be no more. - Psalm 37:10 - NKJV
Texas and America, know that I Am for you, I Am with you and I love you with an everlasting love!
