“I Am Releasing A Sound That Will Terrorize Your Enemy”

A Word by Andrew Towe

I heard the Spirit of the Lord speak to me and say, “I am sending terror in the enemy’s camp. My children have been pressured long enough. You have been surrounded by the threats of the enemy but there are more fighting for you than be against you. It is time for your deliverance. I will show that My hand is not short to save. You will see Me move speedily on your behalf.”

“Elisha said, “Listen! God’s word! The famine’s over. This time tomorrow food will be plentiful—a handful of meal for a shekel; two handfuls of grain for a shekel. The market at the city gate will be buzzing”(2Ki. 7:1 MSG).

The prophet Elisha boldly proclaimed that there would be a twenty-four-hour miracle. As I read that text, God began to speak to me that He wanted me to release a word that would shift circumstances, situations and dilemmas. He instructed me to prophesy His exact words.

“Some of you have been in famine (lack, drought, barrenness, and brokenness) for a long time. In fact, many have even given up hope that your situation would ever change but I have not forgotten My promises to you. Today, I speak to you and declare that the economy of your life is changing by My Word.”

The famine that was in Samaria was so great that they were eating donkey heads and dove’s dung. I think we can all agree that they were in dire circumstances. Donkeys were considered unclean animals to eat. The symbolism seen in what they ate was as follows: a donkey’s head was a prophetic representation of “man’s wisdom” and dove’s dung was a picture of a “leftover move of God”. Unfortunately, today there are those that are doing the same thing, feasting on man’s philosophies and left-over moves of God. The Lord is sounding the alarm for the Church to wake up to how He desires to move today.

The Prophet Elisha prophesied to those who were in Jerusalem during that time, saying “tomorrow about this time” there would be a dramatic shift in their economy and resources would suddenly be released.

“Then a lord on whose hand the king leaned answered the man of God, and said, Behold, if the Lord would make windows in heaven, might this thing be? And he (Elisha) said, Behold, you shall see it with your eyes, but shall not eat of it” (2Ki. 7:2).

Whenever God releases a Word to you that is about to shift you, the enemy will send doubters to come against that Word. They will say, “It is impossible. Don’t get your hopes up.” Nonetheless, when God speaks a word, it will come forth.

In this instance, God used four lepers to fulfill the word He spoke through Elisha. I love that God chose the rejected, the outsiders to fulfill His plan. God is raising up unexpected individuals to bring deliverance to His people.

The circumstances were that everyone in the city was starving. The Syrian army had laid siege to the city of Samaria. None of the people could go out or come in. After they ate up all the food in the city, they began to starve. And the four lepers got so desperate, that they decided to take a giant risk. Desperation can push you out of a place of your normal routine and into great action of faith. God is calling us out of the everyday and into a new day.

“3 And there were four leprous men at the entering in of the gate: and they said one to another, Why sit we here until we die?” …5 And they rose up in the twilight, to go unto the camp of the Syrians: and when they were come to the uttermost part of the camp of Syria, behold, there was no man there. 6 For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host: and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired against us the Kings of the Hittites, and the Kings of the Egyptians, to come upon us. 7 Wherefore they arose and fled in the twilight, and left their tents, and their horses, and their asses, even the camp as it was, and fled for their life (2Ki.7:3, 5-7).

Note that at “twilight” the lepers arose, which was the exact same time the Lord caused the Syrian army to hear the noise of a great host. Note also that the Lord caused the Syrian army to hear the “noise” of a Heavenly Host. This “noise” or better said “God’s Divine intervention” triggered terror to fall upon the Syrian army and they fled for their lives. God has already orchestrated your deliverance!

“And the people went out, and spoiled the tents of the Syrians. So a measure of fine flour was sold for a shekel, and two measures of barley for a shekel, according to the word of the Lord” (2Ki. 7:16).

The people “spoiled” the tents of the Syrian army. In other words, “God used their enemy to bless them.” God is going to give you the spoils of your enemy, too! There are more with you than the opposition against you! God is causing terror to come in the enemy’s camp for you. There is Divine intervention coming into your situation!

There is a Heavenly Host being dispatched on your behalf. There is a sound of victory being released for you today! Declare today is the day of my deliverance!
