I have a daily habit during my prayer time to pray one particular verse. That verse is Philippians 4:7 which says,

“Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”

I pray this because the Spirit revealed to me years ago that if I have peace, even while facing negative or challenging circumstances, that there is no inner warfare or turmoil. Therefore, this prayer daily (and some days more than once a day) has proved to anchor my soul in the rest and peace of Jesus.

But, something happened the other day as I was praying Philippians 4:7! As I prayed it I saw what looked like an angelic royal military guard stand at attention (forming two lines on either side of me) and I heard the words, “Your Peace Guard is in place.”

As I saw this it brought to life the verse in Psalm 91:11

”For He will give His angels charge concerning you, to guard you in all your ways.“

And Luke 4:10,

”For it is written, ‘He will command His angels concerning you to guard you carefully.’”

In early December I had an amazing experience with the Lord where His bride was being crowned (as a queen) and I heard the words, “It’s coronation day!” (You can read the full word by clicking here). Since that time I have had numerous experiences where waters “stood to attention” as His people passed by, creation has stood at attention and now an experience of an angelic guard standing like an “military honor guard”. This peace guard that surrounded me was standing with such honor and dignity; as if I was a highly important individual.

Then I looked up what the military honor guard specifically does and this is their main assignment: appointed to receive or guard a head of state or other dignitary.

As we have bowed in humility to receive our crown from the King of Kings, heaven and earth have begun to stand at attention as we pass by. When God called our family to move from the West Coast to the Washington DC region (we arrived last week); he specifically said to me, “I am sending you as My chosen dignitary. You will sit with and host many dignitaries from around the world.”

A dignitary is a person considered to be important because of high rank or office. A queen is a high rank and is show great favor by her King (see the Book of Esther).

I believe that the body of Christ will experience many of these royal and high ranking experiences. It will be odd at first because we are still coming to grips with “who we are in Christ” (this is part of the change of seasons we are in) but it will change how we see ourselves. This assignment of a peace guard is very important for the days ahead. It will guard your heart and mind!

The Spirit gave me a key the other day regarding avoiding traps that the enemy has set specifically at this time and it involves peace. He said, “The enemy has set up circumstances and situations designed to move you from the operating out of your spirit to your flesh. These instances will provoke you to lose your peace, to engage your flesh and to propel you into a carnal reaction (and foolish action). That is where the trap is laid! If you move and act out of peace and in “a soulish reaction” the enemy has traps laid to rob you, delay you and ensnare you. Regret will try to bring you shame that robs you of your dignity.

When I heard this I sat down with my entire family and shared it with them. I warned them to be patient in circumstances that provoke a reaction (like traffic or fear or an offense, etc.). I shared how the enemy has set traps behind these provocations that are far greater than what is provoking them in the moment. The enemy has a legal right when we leave the spirit and enter into an agreement or alignment with the flesh.

I share this with you because it is truth. It is a warning that will guard and keep you from unnecessary warfare. Ask for His peace guard to come and surround your going in and coming out. Invite them to join you and to guard your heart and mind with the peace of Christ that is beyond comprehension (understanding).

We are learning how to live in the new day and new land. This is one of those important revelations for understanding your enemy and understanding the heavenly host that is made available to you.

“You will go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and hills will burst into song before you, and all the trees of the field will clap their hands.” Isaiah 55:12
