Dedication

This book is dedicated to my loved ones:

My son, Byron C. McDade, who is in heaven with Jesus. His unwavering faith and trust in God were a true inspiration to me and will always be a reminder to me of what real, unfeigned faith looks like in and on a saint of God. Forever thankful to God for knowing you, Son.

And to my dad and mom, Allen and Bertha, who are also in heaven with Jesus. They taught me how to pray and love God. I often think back on when, as a little girl, I used to see Mama kneeling beside the bed praying to God for all her children and her family. I also remember kneeling beside her as she taught me the Lord’s prayer. My dad taught me, as I grew older, how to worship in total surrender to God. He taught me how to seek God with all of my heart as well as how to trust in God above all else.

And to my youngest grandson, Jeffery (Byron’s son), who has a heart for God even now as a young boy. Thank you for giving me the inspiration to keep pressing on and for always reminding me in your own way that there is still lots of work to do for God.

And to all my grandchildren, great-grandchildren, family, and friends.

Preface

God is calling all prayer warriors and intercessors to come up to the next level in the Spirit for such a time as this. We are being summoned by God to take up our weapons for the spiritual war that is being waged on God’s people and the world right now. At the same time, God is casting a spiritual net for the ones who believe that they have been forgotten by both God and man. Many of who do not believe that God could ever love or use them in any capacity. As a result, we tend to put up some resistance as God tries to point us in a new and unfamiliar direction. Because the change is taking us into uncharted waters, we automatically put up a protective wall in our spirits. I am thoroughly convinced that God is seeking many of us to come up higher to a new level in Him. He’s calling us to inquire deeper into His will concerning our call to prayer. Unleashing the Hidden Warriors is written to awaken in His people the need to press into Him more now than at any other time. It is time to totally yield and submit to God—holding nothing back. As a result, many of us will start to understand why we are suddenly feeling unfulfilled in our prayer lives and why we are feeling restless. In addition, many of us are also experiencing an unfamiliar desire to be bolder in the things of God. If we allow Him, God will use Unleashing the Hidden Warriors to help us understand what is really going on with those new feelings of restlessness and unfulfillment as well as those feelings of overwhelming protectiveness and empathy for others. It will begin to come into focus why we are being distracted by certain things that are not conducive to our growth in the things of God. We will learn how to go higher in the things of God despite the enemy’s best attempts to stop us.

Now is the time for the power and authority that God has placed in us to be unleashed into the earth for the purposes that He intended. We have been called to take charge and defeat the enemy and to cover others. To tear down the strongholds. To stand in the gap for God’s people. God’s strategic prayer warriors and intercessors are being called out of the unknown to walk in our call to defeat the enemy. Some of us who have been called are already diligently doing what God has called us to do, but lately, we are feeling as if we are continually running into roadblocks. The attacks of the enemy have been especially vicious to the point of wanting to throw in the towel. The enemy is initiating these attacks in order to try and prevent us from obeying God. An intercessor is very frightful to the enemy, so he will do everything he’s allowed to in order to try and keep us confused about who we really are. God will use Unleashing the Hidden Warriors to reveal some of His strategic next-level intercessory prayer warriors who are already in the trenches doing battle. God is bringing them to the forefront in the kingdom of God in these very tumultuous and chaotic times.

Introduction

Unleashing the Hidden Warriors is designed to call forth God’s next-level intercessors into the body of Christ for the greatest end-time harvest this world has ever witnessed. Furthermore, Unleashing the Hidden Warriors will reveal to the church and to the world the unique attributes that intercessors possess and use in the kingdom. Ultimately, God will reveal His desire to take all who are willing to the next level as prayer warriors and intercessors. For all who know that he or she has been called to stand in the gap, this is the time to step up and be counted. God needs us; the church needs us, and the world needs us. It is a summon to come forth as well as a wake-up call to those of us who have been lulled to sleep. It is written explicitly to the church to inform us of why we are witnessing the hostile takeover of the world by demonic forces at breakneck speed. Unleashing the Hidden Warriors will identify God’s elite force of intercessory prayer warriors who have been in training for such a time as this. In addition, the gifts and weapons with which God has endowed us for this season will be released. It will also serve as a catalyst for God to catapult His prayer warriors and intercessors to the next level. We will be taught how to strategically use our gifts as we go to a place in Him that we have not experienced before. This will enhance our preparation for taking authority over the enemy. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ taught us all who believe on Him shall be able to do the same works as He and even greater works because He was going to the Father. At the writing of Unleashing the Hidden Warriors, the whole world is going through a pandemic that is unprecedented in our lifetime. This pandemic, the coronavirus, is being used by the enemy to steal, kill, and destroy hundreds of thousands of lives. The evil tactics of the enemy are being unleashed upon both the saved and unsaved. We, who are willing, shall be given what we need for the purpose of being released as God’s elite force for such a time as this. Unleashing the Hidden Warriors will reveal those of us who have been locked in battle with the enemy all our lives. It will teach us that we were right in the middle of the will of God for all our lives—fulfilling our call to occupy until He comes. God is getting ready to blow our minds and surprise many in and out of the church. There are some very important truths that we are missing and/or are not comprehending, thereby causing us to remain stagnant in our relationship with the Lord. In addition, Unleashing the Hidden Warriors will show us that what the world deems as important is just the opposite to God. In addition, God will show us what the world rejects and discards is of great value in the kingdom of God.

After reading Unleashing the Hidden Warriors, many of us who thought we were finished will realize it is only the beginning of something phenomenal. It will be a reminder to other saints of God their true purpose. It will also refocus us concerning our mandate to operate in our authority every day. We are the warriors God has been waiting to unleash into the earth for this time! It will also precipitate the beginning of the unleashing of the hidden next-level elite of God. Ultimately, God will resurrect some dormant gifts and weapons that are in our possession. We cannot complete an assignment until we take that first step to let God get us, His warriors, ready to be unleashed into the earth.

Battle Savvy

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wackiness in high places.

—Ephesians 6:12 (KJV)

Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.

—Matthew 10:16 (KJV)

Now is the time for God’s elite to be manifested and called to the front lines. We are now witnessing the greatest onslaught of demonic attacks, the likes of which have never been seen upon the earth. We are witnessing simultaneous worldwide attacks from the enemy. Battle-ready and battle-astute saints, prayer warriors, and intercessors are desperately needed in this hour. Knowledgeable and prepared saints are being sought by God for every aspect of the church body and beyond. Although praying saints are always needed, this is especially true for the prayer warrior and intercessory prayer ministries worldwide right now. We need to be standing in the gap for both the lost and the saved. More so than ever, we have to be cognizant of the fact that we are not struggling and contending with human beings but with evil spiritual forces of great wickedness. Consequently, as prayer warriors and intercessors, we must continually be attuned to our spiritual and natural surroundings in the Holy Spirit.

The Lord Jesus taught the disciples to be careful of their surroundings when going about doing His will. He went on to tell them to be wise as serpents (shrewd and alert) and innocent as doves (having no self-serving agendas). The scripture reads, Listen carefully, I am sending you out like sheep among wolves, be wise as serpents, and innocent as doves (Matthew 10:16, AMP). In other words, before we engage with the enemy for both us and others, we must stop and assess our own surroundings as well as assess the current situation. Most of all, we must stop and take the necessary time to seek and listen to the Lord for clarity and wisdom on our assignments. We should never assume we know everything that pertains to any aspect of our prayer assignment. It is imperative that we seek God first! One of the major aspects to winning a battle, especially in the Christian arena, is to begin by discerning whether the battle is ours to fight or if we’re merely experiencing a cleverly disguised demonic distraction. In other words, there are some things that will come against us that we should not even waste any time or energy on because they are sent from the enemy as a distraction to deflect us from the real fight. After making the determination that we truly do have a fight to fight, then we must immediately begin to take stock of our spiritual arsenal. Subsequently, we must both decide how to fight the fight and what weapons to use in the fight. As saints we war and wage all of our battles on our knees. Therefore, we must ascertain whether we need to just continue praying as usual, come into agreement with another prayer warrior, or add fasting to our prayers as well. This is why a prayer warrior and intercessor must always begin every battle by seeking wisdom from God. Moreover, we Christians must realize from day one that we have a definite enemy. We must also know that our enemy always keeps us in his crosshairs. Fortunately, he cannot take us out unless we give him an opening. Therefore, we should always be cognizant of his tricks, traps, and, most of all, his lies. Since he knows we are protected by God from any premature devastation, we are to be wise and careful in our walks. We have to begin by being obedient to the Word of God. We must always be careful that we are operating in the will of God. Consequently, he cannot destroy us prematurely. Remember I did not say that the enemy would not attack us or attempt to distract us. Therefore, be ever mindful that he goes about to set us up and use people as well as things to try and pull us out of our place of obedience, peace, joy, and protection. The enemy is a master at distraction, causing us to engage in fights that are not ours but are, instead, the Lord’s. I have noticed that there are many good, God-fearing people who are tenaciously fighting battles but are fighting the wrong battles and with the wrong weapons. As with any serious battle, we tend to put our sole focus into the direction of the fight, consequently causing us to turn a deaf ear to some other important issues. In fact, we can be so laser focused in a certain direction that we tend to neglect some pertinent circumstances that might require our immediate attention. I have learned the hard way how the enemy is a master at using distraction to persuade us to focus our attention in the wrong direction. Some of us Christians have been so preoccupied with our various life circumstances to the point where we have not been aware of the tremendous increase in the devil’s attacks on every aspect of society. There are several other things that the enemy has been subtly incorporating into the world. These evils are being very cleverly introduced into our society and are rapidly becoming ingrained into our daily lives on every level.

After much prayer, careful consideration, and research, I was astounded to see the enemy’s true intentions for the world. I truly believe that each time we pray the Lord will slowly begin to unmask and reveal more and more of the enemy’s real plan. As the Lord shines the light on the enemy’s ultimate evil plan being perpetrated, it will surely cause even the most casual of us saints to stop and wonder how such things could be happening in a civilized society. Sometimes, it just takes someone else to call our attention to seemingly innocent things that are, in fact, intrinsically evil. When we stop and take a deeper look, it will cause even the unchurched as well as the seasoned Christians to agree that the world needs help and direction like never before. For instance, our society, as a whole, has strayed far, far away from what is traditionally described as a Christian culture (families attending church on Sunday or man-woman relationships—which are God ordained). In this culture it is quickly becoming a rarity to observe traditional households where people believe in having a job and/or jobs and a home where they raise children, etc. We are now living in a world where things that used to be considered taboo are now being flaunted with open disregard for God, for the most vulnerable, and for the most revered in our culture. There is no more fear of God. There is no more respect for the sanctity of human life. There is no more respect and honor for the elderly. There is no more care and concern for the neediest and most fragile of our society—our elderly, our unborn babies, and our young children. These incidences of evil and disrespect are also reaching into our churches and even into our pulpits. These are just some of the things that can be readily seen by all who are going about their daily lives. Those of us who love the Lord are asking ourselves, How can this be happening in a world that is so intellectually advanced, so technically astute, and so materially blessed? I believe the answer is that despite all of the advancements, there have to be rules. Yes, all of our advancements are very good in themselves, but they cannot be successfully sustained and accurately appropriated without parameters. As history has taught us and has proven time and time again, human beings left to their own devices will, inevitably, self-destruct. We must include our God in every aspect of our lives. We must submit ourselves to God and adhere to the teachings of the Bible. For God promised that a nation that obeys the Lord shall be blessed, and the nation that disregards their God is a disgrace. The scripture reads, Righteousness [moral and spiritual integrity and virtuous character] exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people (Proverbs 14:34, AMP).

All of the aforementioned evils seem to have overtaken our nation and society. As awful as those things are, they are being used as mere distractions of the enemy to keep us from looking even deeper. He does not only want us to be distracted by and be involved in temporary sin, but he is truly attempting to steal, kill, and destroy us in totality. For example, in certain communities, the enemy is attempting to destroy from within. As a
