How long before the morning or light shines on our path – will God grant us mercy?

“This message came to me concerning Edom: Someone from Edom[d] keeps calling to me, 'Watchman, how much longer until morning? When will the night be over?” The watchman replies, “Morning is coming, but night will soon return. If you wish to ask again, then come back and ask.'” Isaiah 21:11&12

I believe it is time for the Watchmen to sound the alarm of what they see coming. In this scripture the watchman tells them to come again, and maybe the Lord will change His mind about the destruction coming on the land.  God is always sending warnings to His people and the world, so they can respond.

The ears of the people don’t only want to hear what God is saying if it sounds good – don’t tell us anything that is not a good report. Yet how can the Church be the ones who know what is happening so they can “then come back and ask,” as God is a merciful God and will respond to the cries of His people.

This is a time when the Church must be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks.  We should be the ones the world is looking to for answers. So many in the Church seem to be hearers only and not ready to step on the stage of the world and execute all that Jesus paid the price for us to be. This is one reason I think Dr. Bill Hamon's book The Day of the Saints is so important – that we understand God is looking for saints who will take responsibility.

Martha Lucia is an anointed Watchman/Prophet with an apostolic call to lay a foundation of prayer and the Word of the Lord in the lives of God’s people.  Through fervent prayer and the study of His Word, the Lord has given Martha revelatory keys of effective prayer and divine strategies to see the strongholds of the enemy dismantled and the Kingdom of God established in the local church as well as in cities, states and nations.

Martha relocated to north Florida in 1992, where she heads the intercessory prayer teams for Christian International Ministries Network.  In 1996, she was ordained as a General of Intercession, with a mandate from God to raise up an army of intercessors. The Lord has positioned Martha to be a pioneer in the area of teaching intercession and to bring the Church back to an effective prayer life and strong intercession, including times of spiritual birthing and travail.

In 2002 Martha responded to the call of God to join Christian International Europe. She focused much of her ministry time in England and other European countries teaching and training about the watchman and intercession.  Many of her assignments were to lead intercessory teams to key locations to pray, prophesy, and decree over the land.
In late 2006 Martha returned to the United States where she continues her assignment with Christian International as the General of Intercession.  Martha speaks nationally and internationally building God's army of intercessors and watchmen to establish God's kingdom on the earth.  She has also traveled the world as an Eagle of God with Chuck Pierce.

Martha is also the editor and creator of an international newsletter dedicated to the ministry of the watchman called "The Watchman Newsletter."  God is challenging us to bring clarity to the ministry of the watchman and to see it raised to its function and purpose.  The web site continues to be a resource for the body of Christ, as we try to keep posted the latest developments in the earth and the Church.  She resides in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida.
