‘ReadyToWorship’ picked up on a poignant part of the word brought by Christopher Wickland that I re-published yesterday wherein he writes:
“…Watch My people, I will raise up nations who will stand up for you, who will defend your cause. I will even cause some who are your enemies to be your allies in the days ahead.
I will raise up sheep nations that will stand alongside you My Ariel. The land of three Lions will come to your aid soon with strength and military power. When they do, you will stand shoulder to shoulder with others whom I will raise to shield you from violence (Hamas)…”
Your fellow reader comments:
- Is England the nation of three lions? That is one of our emblems!
- God is such a good and loving God. May He give us in England a chance to get it right this time. A land that has harmed and forgotten you Israel, come back, weeping, to help you. May He wipe away your tears and bind you up with his love, and may we be your handservant, and this time, this time, this time, love you as we ought to.
1 > As for the first: football fans are well aware of the 3 lions motif but I did a quick query of Google and find:
The Morrant Group family business provides an excellent historical summary which, of course refers to Richard Coeur-de-Lion, Richard The Lionheart, and Wikipedia states (with relevance to this prophecy?):
‘Richard was an important Christian commander during the Third Crusade, leading the campaign after the departure of Philip II of France and achieving considerable victories against his Muslim counterpart, Saladin, although he finalised a peace treaty and ended the campaign without retaking Jerusalem.[4]

PS.
Richard's Watch 
Dear Richard
Amen to that prayer that England gets it right this time in standing with Israel.
What you may appreciate is how the 3 lions on the English flag came into being. 2 lions ‘passant’ (the heraldic term for the position the lions are in) were attributed to William the Conqueror as being symbolic of Upper and Lower Normandy.
Some 90 years later his great grandson now King Henry II of England, and Normandy married Eleanor of Aquitaine. The flag of Aquitaine was seen as one red lion passant.
At the time the use of such flags was scant but when their second son Richard inherited the throne of England and then went on Crusade, he took up the 3 lions into his flag and it was used on the battlefields of the Middle East and then later in Europe nearer to home.
Personally I think the reason the flag was not dropped in the time of Prime Minister Blair was the very real take- up by the English Football fans……it certainly felt at that time, that there would otherwise have been a move to quietly drop this national symbol….
The other nation with 3 lions on their flag is Denmark. Their lions are blue whereas ours are red. However there is also the reference in Ezekiel 38 to Tarshish and her young lions opposing the invasion of Israel….have always suspected that we are Tarshish and that our Commonwealth nations are the young lions thereof…
This is just by way of an aside!
Shalom, love and prayers Elaine ________________________________ From: Richard’s Watch comment-reply@wordpress.com Sent: 19 October 2023 15:01 To: ezraenterprizes@hotmail.com ezraenterprizes@hotmail.com Subject: [New post] Jerusalem prophecy gets God-incidental progress upon publication herein

Greatly appreciate your ‘aside’ Elaine as it’s good to get the fuller picture re Ezekiel about which I’d blogged in connection with Brexit > https://richards-watch.org/2017/03/09/prophetic-scripture-update-1-ezekiel-uk-and-usa-as-western-tarshish/
Also, will copy to my Fbk and Tgm copies of posting.
