At the time I understood this will not be a short season, but might very well run until He comes. In this time, we are trusting in the Lord for the end-time revival but make no mistake, times are going to be brutal for those who follow God. As a confirmation of this reality, God in 2024 spoke of the bulls of Bashan. As I sought the Lord on this truth, I became acutely aware of the incredible dangers that await those who wish to stand with God. In Psalm 22:12 David, in his distress, laments, “Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me.” The picture of being surrounded by angry bulls, intent on goring and trampling their victim, is fearful indeed. Trouble was near, and there was no one to help him (Psalm 22:11). Despite these fearsome circumstances, David knew that God was not far off. God could deliver David’s soul from these threats. God is raising an end-time remnant for a time such as this. They obey God and not man. They fear not the devil. They listen to God, follow His truth and seek His will. They dismiss the devil’s lies and choose to stand with the Light as darkness continues to intensify upon the earth. Yes, they shall overcome the bulls of Bashan (demonic and worldly threats and dangers). This end-time remnant is facing extreme attack, and I believe more than ever since the resurrection of Jesus. Ultimately, if we as children of God want to survive the bulls of Bashan – the spiritual and the physical ‘giants’ - we need to abide in the Lord. We need to remain connected to the Vine (John 15). We need to become true disciples, grow up in the Spirit, and grow in God’s wisdom, truth and knowledge. If we are not grounded in the Lord, we will be swept away by the storms and be gorged by the bulls. After all, these bulls are waiting for an opportunity to strike. It is critical to remain connected to God, for then we are connected to life, hope, vision, joy and life!
