I saw a big white horse with an ornately uniformed rider. The horse was taking disciplined steps as he walked. To me it appeared to be a military horse. The rider was dressed in a way I could not identify, however the colors red and black were dominant. I felt it was some type of military uniform. Details were not clear to me. But in the spirit I heard the words “Genghis Khan.”
As I looked at the horse it suddenly turned and came directly at me, and in fact, ran over me.
In subsequent visions for several weeks after that, I again saw the same type of white horses and riders. Armies of them, coming endlessly. And coming and going in every direction. They appeared to be in a sand desert. There was nothing but the desert and the horses and riders. They were well organized, and quite numerous. And always moving purposefully in one direction or another, and in unison. Some riders had swords they were holding up in the air. I didn’t see any other weapons but knew they had them on their persons.
Interpretation
Background history The following information on Genghis Khan was compiled from many different sources.
Genghis Khan was born in Russia near Lake Baikal sometime between 1162 and 1167. His name at birth was Temujin and at age 13 he succeeded his father, a Mongol chief. He said of himself, “I am the punishment of God...” and his Mongol hordes created an empire from China to Russia, greater than that of Alexander the Great.
Elected the new leader of the scattered Kiyat tribe in 1189 he went on military campaigns to unify the peoples of the steppe. By 1206, after many skillful victories, he had conquered almost all of Mongolia. He was acknowledged as supreme leader to decide military and state matters of the steppe at a traditional meeting of tribal leaders. He was given the honorary title of Genghis Khan meaning “Universal King” or possibly meaning “Precious Warrior,” “Strong Leader,” “Emperor of all Emperors” or “Oceanic Ruler.”
He began his conquests in China. By 1208 he was established inside the Great Wall. In 1215 his armies captured Yenking (now Beijing), the last Juchen Chin dynasty (1122-1234) stronghold in northern China. In 1219 he turned his armies to the west, and invaded Khoresm, a Turkish empire that included modern Iraq, Iran, and part of western Turkistan. In 1222 he plundered a Russian region between the Volga and Dnepr rivers and from the Persian Gulf to almost the Arctic Ocean.
A conquering emperor, Genghis Khan was also a top military strategist and adroit politician, destroying existing systems and establishing new ones. His greatness as a military leader was demonstrated by his conquests and organization, discipline, and maneuverability of his armies.
The driving force behind this merciless ruler and general was superior horse cavalry. The Mongol cavalryman in his light, agile armor was unstoppable, firing six arrows a minute.
His army consisted of units of soldiers from different tribes, creating loyalty to his army and not to a specific lineage. Enemy leaders were killed. Survivors had two choices: surrender and be a slave, or be killed. Those who surrendered were scattered throughout different land areas. By enforced discipline, rewards for skill and allegiance, and punishment for opposing him, he established his vast empire.
When he died in 1227, his empire encompassed Hungary, then across Asia to Korea, and from Siberia to Tibet. The Mongol Empire was distributed among his three sons and gradually eroded. Four of his grandsons also became great Mongol leaders.
Summary of skills, techniques and characteristics of Genghis Khan to conquer land and people: •He had a religious zeal, an alleged divine purpose that fueled his mission.
A leader at an early age, he declared himself to be the punishment of God.
•His exploits earned him a title of “Universal King” from his contemporaries, as recognition of his abilities displayed in unifying his home territory.
Determined to unify his people, he was declared to be a “Universal King.”
•He expanded his territorial conquests to other regions.
Having accomplished this, he went on to conquer other land areas and subdue the people.
•His organization, discipline and maneuverable armies earned recognition as a conqueror, an emperor, a military strategist, a politician and implementer of new systems. Superior deployment of cavalry units made them unstoppable.
An emperor, a military strategist and accomplished politician, he used his skills to tear down and rebuild. He utilized organization, discipline and maneuverability to accomplish his purposes. He accomplished maneuverability by teaching his soldiers superior skills and providing them with more flexible protection.
•He created loyalty to his army, and killed enemy leaders and those who did not surrender to become his slaves. Those that surrendered he scattered in different land areas. He enforced discipline, rewards, skill and allegiance and punished his opposition.
He conquered huge amounts of land areas and people by his skills and techniques.
The present In the vision, an army upon white horses would indicate an army of God (Revelation 19:11-14). However, here in this vision, the rider does not fit the description of Jesus. Also the attire of red and black does not fit. This appears to be a counterfeit army of God. It has counterfeit symbology of colors (white horses, representing purity and righteousness), red (the blood of Jesus) and black (indicative of judgment).
That this army is a threat to a child of God is revealed when the horse ran over me.
The sandy desert suggests a foundation of sand, and much barrenness.
This is a very large, well-organized and very active army. They have purpose and unity. And they are covering every point of the compass in their comings and goings.
Their swords are also counterfeit representations of the word of God. They have concealed weapons on their persons. This would indicate they are ready for person to person (hand to hand) combat.
The arrows mentioned in the article could represent curses, or counterfeit words of judgment.
I believe that God is showing me Genghis Khan and his skills, techniques and characteristics, as a type of the end-time apostate church.
They will have a religious zeal, and will attack the remnant and traditional churches, even declaring that they are the punishment of God.
They will concentrate on conquering their “home” territories. Then they will declare themselves to be “Universal Kings,” and will then expand their territorial conquests to other regions and other people.
They will be organized, disciplined and maneuverable. They will have an emperor attitude, and will be military strategists and savvy politicians. They will tear down traditional doctrines and teachings and will implement their aberrant doctrines and teachings. They will display superior skills in flexibly manipulating and intimidating falsely in the areas of righteousness (the horses are white, representing purity and righteousness).
They will be loyal to their cause, they will kill traditional and remnant leaders and those who do not convert to their (spiritual) “slavery.” They will scatter cliques and groups and will enforce discipline, rewards and skill and allegiance and will punish any opposition.
And just as Genghis Khan, they will “conquer” huge amounts of land and people.
Application
This is truly a time when the remnant church must recognize that a formidable enemy, the culmination of centuries of evil human activity, is coalescing and is being sent against them by the evil one himself. This is not an army that will come from without the church, but one that is being raised up within the church. There is no question that this apostate church will have the cooperation and sanction of those civil, military and governmental organizations that hate those who name the name of Christ.
The holy and consecrated remnant church of the true and living God must saturate themselves with the word of God and actively seek the presence of the Father and the power of Jesus Christ Himself and His Holy Spirit as a priority for their lives. It will be by much prayer and discernment of spirits that we will recognize those of the apostate church that attempt to destroy and enslave us.
It has been said that the best defense is a strong offense.
Will we, the church of the only true and living God, continue in our areas of comfort and ease in Zion?
Or will we, as the remnant church of our God, rise up in the power of God Himself with a holy love and zeal and become organized and active, declaring His love and mercy as the true Universal King?
Will we get out of our comfort zone and expand into those areas of the world where the Gospel of the good news of Jesus Christ must be declared in order for scripture to be fulfilled?
Will we get organized, discipline ourselves and begin to flexibly maneuver as good military strategists? Will we utilize our political skills in tearing down the strongholds of the devil and implementing the kingdom of God? Will we skillfully divide the word of God and exhibit, as salt and light, the purity and righteousness of God?
Will we be loyal to the army of God, showing Godly compassion in helping those in bondage to the devil become free and enter into eternal life with God? And bring them together into the promised land where Godly discipline will bring rewards, skills and blessings for all of eternity?
Will we believe Jesus when He said: “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (Matthew 24:14)?
