Dear brothers and sisters in our Lord Jesus, part of the growing repentance remnant, cleansing as His Bride, getting ready for His soon return as our Bridegroom-----
Derek Prince had an excellent word on "the day of battle." This is what he wrote:
" In the Day of Battle "Psalm 110:3
Your troops will be willing on your day of battle. Arrayed in holy majesty, from the womb of the dawn your young men will come to you like the dew. NIV, RSV
"Remember that God is a God of battles. He’s a man of war; He’s called “the Lord of Hosts,” that is, the Lord of Armies. In the Old Covenant, the Lord appeared to Joshua as the captain of the Lord’s army. Today, God is gathering His army. The Scripture makes it clear that the present age is going to close with a tremendous conflict between the forces of God and the forces of Satan and God is gathering His army. It says, “Your troops will be willing in your day of battle.” Literally, your troops will be free-will offerings. God doesn’t want us to give Him something. He wants us to give Him ourselves – not our talents, not our time, not our strength, just ourselves. We are to be the free-will offerings.
" And it says, “From the womb of the dawn your young men will come to you like the dew.” God is gathering an army of young people today. They are being born, as it were, like dawn is born out of darkness. Out of the darkness of the past is coming a new day – a day of birth, a day of battle, a day when young people are being summoned into the army of God. Not to offer God something, but to offer to God themselves, to become His free-will offerings on the day of His battle.—Derek Prince"

In this day when an actual, horrific, physical battle is going on in Israel with its neighbors, it's time to remember it's also a spiritual battle. You and I need to be willing to stand up for the Lord Jesus Christ to the many who do not know Him. And you and I have to have the revelation, as did young David, that the battle is the Lord's. 1 Samual 17:45-49 is right on point:
45 Then David said to the Philistine, 'You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin. But I come to you with the name of the LORD of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. 46 'This day the Lord will hand you over to me, and I will strike you down and cut off your head. And I will give the corpses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the sky and the wild beasts of the earth, so that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, 47 and that this entire assembly may know that the Lord does not save with the sword or with the spear; for the battle is the Lord’s and He will hand you over to us.” 48 When the Philistine rose and came forward to meet David, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine. 49 David put his hand into his bag and took out a stone and slung it, and it struck the Philistine on his forehead. The stone penetrated his forehead, and he fell face down on the ground."
Galatians 6:16 now calls each of us, believers in the Lord Yeshua/Jesus, " the Israel of God." In this current war, and with the global antisemitism, we see how many are truly lost in the pagan religion of islam and other false mindsets. The enemy, false anti-Christ spirit, is being exposed. We see how many do not know Him.
In this "day of battle," may we defeat the enemy by bringing many into Jesus/Yeshua's Kingdom, enlarging the Israel of God.
Our assignment from the Lord is to preach, by our words and increased Godly conduct, observed by others, Luke 24:46,47: "Then He said to them,' Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem."
With war in Israel, with economic shaking, with more of His shaking coming (Hebrews 12:26-29) it's all the more important for you and me to 1) enter His Kingdom through His gift of repentance and faith in His blood, and 2) cleanse through His gift of repentance to be ready as His Bride. He's the soon-coming Bridegroom. That cleansing will be a witness to many to follow you and me into His Kingdom. The battle is the Lord's!
The repentance call on Sunday October 29 had the video "create in me a clean heart" written by Keith Green. It calls upon Psalm 51:10-12, written by David and the Holy Spirit, and is timely for each of us today in this battle:

Song: Create in me a clean heart
TEXT: Psalm 51:10-12 Melody: Keith Green
Create in me a clean heart, O God: and renew a right spirt within me. Create in me a clean heart, O God: and renew a right spirit within me.
Cast me not away from Thy presence O Lord; and take not Thy Holy Spirit from me.
Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation and uphold me with Thy free spirit.

We have this song from our brother Baruch in Israel to remind us of the power of Almighty God, and to return to Him:

The ICEJ is hosting its Global Prayer Gathering DAILY until further notice."We are committed to stand with Israel in prayer. We would love for you to join us for timely updates, prayer, and worship. Please join us daily at 9:00 a.m. (ET) at icej.org/ICEJGlobalPrayer."
*******************
In the shaking that He promised [Hebrews 12:26-29] do you see that His Gift of repentance needs, all the more, from this time forward, to spread to all persons, everywhere?
When we seek to satisfy our own desires first, we will be in want; but when we give our first and best to God, we will have "an abundance for every good work." (Matthew 6:33, 2 Corinthians 9:8).
NDR exists, without church or denomination support, to encourage His Gift of repentance to pastors, priests, worship leaders, all believers, in nations everywhere. We depend on your gifts, of whatever amount, to seed into this urgent move of His repentance before His soon return. Thank you!
Donations have stopped, and are almost frozen, except for a very small handful who see His Hand in this ministry. Please pray to the Lord if He will have you join us in prayers and much needed support.
And are you called to join me and Susan Hammer in South Africa to help lead this move of repentance? In Luke 8:3 we learn of three people "and many others" who supported the advance of Jesus' Kingdom. In a similar analogy, we are seeking a third person, or more, who will help us advance His Kingdom today. Please pray to see if He is calling you also to this powerful movement to restore His Gift of Repentance.
God bless you,
