Taiwan, You've Been Made Ready

A WORD FOR THE TAIWANESE CHURCH
WORD BY JODIE HUGHES | AUGUST 23, 2022

The Lord is with you and He loves you. He has heard your cry and His heart is toward you.

AN ESTHER 4:14 SEASON IS UPON YOU

Taiwan, you are in an Esther 4:14 moment. For such a time as this you have been called. I hear the Lord saying all that you have walked through, and all that you have battled and faced in the past, it has been unto this moment. You’ve been forged in the fire and made into a sharp weapon for this very hour. What would have broken others, has made you strong, and supernatural strength is being added to you.

“And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14b

FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS YOU ARE CALLED

The Lord has heard your prayers and they are shifting things over your nation. Even in the turbulence, your prayers are effecting outcomes. It is a time to release a bold, rally of intercession. Let the call go out, it’s time to pray. Let the call go out, it’s time to battle in the heavenlies. Let the call go out, it’s time to fast and pray.

For such a time as this has the Lord prepared you in the battles of last season. All that you have walked though and all that you learned, has been preparation for now.

YOU’VE BEEN MADE READY

It is a time of war, and in a time of war, priorities shift. It is a time to focus on storming heaven as the God of Angel Armies wars with you. This is not a battle primarily fought through mans armies or diplomacy, this is a battle cry to the church. Arise army of the Lord. Let the call go out, you have been called into the King’s service for such a time as now. Pray with expectation of walls falling. Let out a shout. Intercede and cry out for the nation. Just as Esther was brought to her position for the very moment her nation needed a mediator, the Taiwanese church is in such a moment now. Let the call go out, you have been preserved for such a time as this, to war for your nation in prayer. You are stronger than you think and your voice is more powerful than you realise.

THE WAR IS FOR SOULS AND PROPHETIC DESTINY AS A GATEWAY TO THE EAST

There is a war for souls right now in Taiwan, and your call as a gateway for the gospel to the east. There is urgency for souls. I see coordinated prayer strikes and strategies that mobilise an army of believers for evangelism. The call to win souls is of the highest urgency, and there is an open window right now for this. What was once considered unwanted will now be received with fresh openness. The window is open for harvest. The hearts are ready. The call to win souls is urgent and must not be missed.

The call to prayer for the nation is equally urgent. A fierce, bold, warring intercession is coming on the Taiwanese church. The prayers will sound more like a battle cry and abandoned passion will spread. The prayer meeting will be the war room, and the place of birthing revival and miracles as God breaks out in your midst.

Your prayers are powerful Taiwan and your voice is bold. The Lord is activating a new boldness and courage in your voice. Intimidation and fear is being broken off as they are lies that have sought to squash the bold authority you are called to. You are not timid or scared, you are a bold and strong people that know how to battle in the heavenlies with great authority and effectiveness. The enemy has tried to silence your voice and stifle your confidence, but the Lord says, it’s time to let the call go out and let a war cry be released from the remnant.

YOUR SHOUT IS RELEASING ZEAL TO PREVAIL

Taiwan is a free people and you are free to pray and intercede. Let the call go out. This is the hour you’ve been prepared for. Let a battle cry be heard from God’s people that rumbles the ground. Shout, as walls still come down at the sound of prophetic praise and prayer. Shout as God is stirring up His zeal in the church of Taiwan.

“The LORD shall go forth like a mighty man; He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war. He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud; He shall prevail against His enemies.” Isaiah 42:13

PICK UP YOUR FAITH AND THROW IT AS A STONE THAT SLAYS GIANTS

In prayer I saw a picture of David and Goliath. This is a David and Goliath battle season, where the fight seems bigger than the resources, strength or people available. However I hear the Lord saying to the remnant, lift your eyes from focussing on the battle between government and human agendas and authorities, or against “flesh and blood”, as this is a wrestle against “the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12). This is a wrestle to set the captives free. Just as God partnered with the faith of David, He is partnering with the faith of the believing church. Pick up your faith and throw it like a stone at the true enemy, binding intimidation and releasing boldness, freedom and righteousness. Taiwan shall be saved. Souls shall rush in. Revival shall break out. The church shall release a shout that slays giants.

I hear the Lord encourage you. Just as David killed the bear and later killed the lion, these trained, equipped and prepared him for the coming season. David’s victories of the bear and lion however protected His Fathers flock. You have done well Taiwan church and protected the flock and all God has been establishing in your midst. You have loved well and fought well and discipled well. You have grown the flock and healed their hearts. You have overcome much and done so with great grace. You have truly been forged through the fire of persecution and cost, and grown strong as you faithfully served Jesus. After David’s tests of the lion and bear came the battleground of Goliath, and just as David was prepared by his journey for this, so are you prepared for such a time as now. This challenge you face however, just like story of David and Goliath, is not just for the flock, but now for the nation.

TAIWAN SHALL BE ESTABLISHED AS A GATEWAY NATION OF THE GOSPEL TO THE EAST

This battle is for the prophetic destiny of Taiwan. You have already been prepared and now is the time to let out a shout that brings downs walls, and scatters the enemy. Shout Taiwan. Arise and release a war cry. Call to the north, south, east and west, arise Taiwan. Taiwan shall be established as a gateway nation of revival fire to the east. The God of Angel Armies is sending reinforcements. Angel armies are harkening to the call of your prayers and declarations. Arise Taiwan. The war man speaks of is but distraction from the war the devil is stirring to keep the Taiwanese church bound in paralysis, and souls lost for eternity. Instead Taiwan, you will see revival shake the break the enemies plans in Taiwan as your bold, prevailing shout of faith arises.

YOU ARE NOT OUTNUMBERED. A REMNANT IS ENOUGH.

This battle is for the nation of Taiwan, but not as you suppose. Declare war on the true enemy, who is after the very eternal destination of your people, and the birthing of a generation with hearts after God. Taiwan is called as a missionary nation, a gateway nation to the east. You will increasingly send many missionaries to the east and beyond, however the battle is won in the war room of prayer. The call is going out, arise warrior church of Taiwan. Arise faithful saints whose hearts are after God just like Davids was. Your strength is your pure heart after God and your worship that rumbles the ground. Arise faithful church of Taiwan. You are not outnumbered. A remnant is enough. The Lord fights with you and partners with your prayers. Call in a harvest of souls NOW. Now is the time of harvest, not later, NOW. Now is the time of intercession, not later. Now is the time to press in for Revival, not later. Now is the time to cry out for your sons and daughters not later. Let the call go out… it’s time to war in the heavenlies and arouse your zeal.

THE LORD LOVES YOU TAIWAN

The Lord loves you Taiwan. The Lord loves you faithful remnant. He has sees you, and He is with you watching over you. I hear Him say, “arise and break off the shackles of intimidation. Arise and shout”. For such a time as this you are called to service of the Lord. This is about the salvation of your people, and the call on your nation as a gateway nation of the gospel to the east, and the arising generation that is called to change the landscape of Taiwan for Jesus. I hear the marching of the armies of the Lord and the trumpets blast…. Taiwan is called as a nation that unashamedly serves Jesus. Arise mighty warriors of the King. Your prayers are shifting more than you know.

LET THE CALL GO OUT, YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED INTO THE SERVICE OF THE KING

For such a time as this you have been made ready.  Let the call go out. You are enlisted into the army of King Jesus. Fresh oil is being poured out. Receive this oil as it is anointing you with grace and strength for this season.

I bless you remnant, prevailing church of Taiwan.
