Joel's Army

>>God has begun raising up a Joel's Army, a spiritual army of young and old who will not fight with human weapons but with love and the raw power of God.<<

   The above quote is taken from a prophetic newsletter that is sent out to thousands on a daily basis.

   What blows my mind is that thousands of members of the Body of Christ are not recognizing the army being referenced (found in Joel chapter two) is a demon army--not a godly one.

   >>a spiritual army of young and old who will not fight with human weapons but with love <<

   The context in the scriptures clearly reveal this army will fight with anything but love! They will leave a desolate wilderness behind them where ever they go (Joel2:3 kjv).

   They will bring pain and sorrow to people where ever they go (Joel 2:6 kjv).

   This demon army is the same one described in The Revelation (chapter 9:1-11) led by the destroyer.

   The verse in Joel 2:14 (the Lord shall utter his voice before his army), may or may not be referring to this demon army.

   The Lord can use any army he chooses for his purposes, so technically all armies are at his disposal (demon or otherwise), and everything is his, but more likely "the Lord's army" referred to in Joel 2:14 is referring to the armies of Heaven (that will be returning with Christ at the battle of Armageddon).

   So let's don't be so hasty to identify ourselves with "Joel's Army." That's not the winning side.
