Jeremiah Chapter 50 KJV verses twenty five and twenty six

"The Lord hath opened his armory, and hath brought forth the WEAPONS OF HIS INDIGNATION: for this is the work of the Lord God of Hosts in the land of the Chaldeans. Come against her from the utmost border; open her storehouses: cast her up as heaps, and destroy her utterly: let nothing of her be left".
The Lord God of Hosts is perhaps the most common way God chooses to refer to himself. "Hosts" means "a mass of persons organized for war, an army, soldiers, waiting upon warfare in an attitude of worship". This refers to the angelic host at God's command but it also refers to us - God's great last days army of saints "waiting upon warfare in an attitude of worship". Much of the Bible is taken up with this war we are all involved in, this war that began in the heavens but will be finished here on earth. Indeed, we the "Ekklesia", the called out ones, are all called to do battle against the spiritual darkness of this present age. We are all called to "fight the good fight of faith" 1 Tim:6:12, we are all in "training for reigning", we are all in "schooling for ruling" with our Christ, forever. Many believers look forward to the day when they will rule and reign with Christ for a thousand years, here on earth. I tell you the truth, dear reader, if you do not learn to rule and reign with him now in the spirit realm, you will not rule and reign with him later in the natural realm.
He says come against her from "the utmost border", indeed, all saints everywhere are called to this battle. No matter where you live on this earth, you are conscripted into God's great army and you are called to fight, and defeat, the enemy. It's time you entered your spiritual boot camp, if you haven't already. I pray you have an apostle or prophet that can help you with your training but if not, the Holy Spirit can lead you Himself. Ask God for it, ask him to prepare you for battle and he will teach you how to war in the heavenlies.
There were three Arch Angels in Heaven and God wants his people to walk in the anointing of all three. Lucifer was anointed to lead praise and worship in heaven and after his fall, God gave his position and anointing to us, His bride. We are now the worship leaders in heaven! Michael's anointing is for war - he is the leading general of all the warrior angels and God wants us, his saints, to be able to do battle in the heavens, in the spirit realm. Our weapons are prayer, prophecy and the Word of God. Speaking of the Word of God, Gabriel is the prophetic angel, always bringing the Word of the Lord and God wants all of his saints to be able to walk in this anointing too. We must all learn to prophecy, though not all of us are Prophets. To have a healthy local church, the saints should be trained and equipped to walk in all three anointings. Pastors and all leadership who refuse to come out of Babylon and keep people bound therein are in for a woeful time.
"He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity. He that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword" Rev:13:10. They that use the "sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God" Eph:6:17, to kill people, that is kill their faith, teach doctrines that produce death in people, will themselves be killed. Those who take the saints captive, who turn their churches into jails, who "smite their fellow servants" Mt:24:19, lording it over them, behaving as kings of their own little fiefdoms; they will all be taken captive, and will find Satan smiting and lording it over them.
