Chuck Pierce prophecies of Sept 2019 & Jan 2020 re. the coronavirus pandemic

Posted on Wednesday, 18 March, 2020 by Richard Barker

Just received > In announcing the postponement of the Mentoring Day and Prophetic Conference in Windsor scheduled for April, Dr Sharon Stone of Christian International Europe apologises for the inconvenience and says,

‘We hope to proceed with our May Mentoring day on the 9th May 2020. It is going to be an exciting time where we will be continuing with our Prophetic Praise and Worship and Emerging Prophets track as well as our National Prayer.

‘We pray that you will remain in faith and not in fear. Click here to read the prophetic word released by Chuck Pierce (at) last September’s Head of the Year conference. We would love for you to pray into it.’

Regarding my posting on the tide turning for the coronavirus pandemic, it’s interesting to read in the Charisma News link about Stephen Strang’s interview of Shawn Bolz, who shared why he felt the Lord told him the end of the coronavirus is near.

Strang continues (emphases added):

”Prophet Chuck Pierce says God told him something similar. Back in September of 2019, he prophesied that the “nations would come into turmoil until Passover” (April 8-16).

‘Then on January 26, 2020, he gave a prophetic word that a “massive plague-like invasion would test us through Passover.” Cindy Jacobs gave a similar prophecy to Chuck on Jan. 3 regarding the first three months of this year. She told Chuck that he should be cautious about how much he travels.

“I had gone 570,000 miles last year and was weary from all the travel and warfare,” Chuck says. “She actually shared that the Lord was saying that I needed rest, but I recognized the admonition to be a caution on my travel for the first three months of 2020. Therefore, I have watched the Lord make sure I’ve had more time to rest and write, and I’ve actually stopped most international travel during these three months.”

‘It’s important we listen to what the prophets are saying about this matter. Even though the media gives us facts, those who listen carefully to God’s heart can give us spiritual insight.

‘Chuck points to two passages in the book of Joel as Scriptures that are prophetic for this hour:

“Do not be afraid, land; exult and rejoice, for the Lord has done great things! Do not be afraid, beasts of the field, because the wild pastures flourish, because the tree bears its fruit; the fig tree and the vine yield their abundance. And children of Zion, exult and rejoice in the Lord your God, because He has given to you the early rain for vindication. He showers down rains for you, the early rain and the latter rain, as before” (Joel 2:21-23).

“Hurry and come, all you surrounding nations, and gather there. Bring down Your warriors, O Lord. Let the nations be roused, and go up to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; for there I will sit to judge all the surrounding nations. … Multitudes, multitudes, in the valley of decision! For the day of the Lord is near in the valley of the decision” (Joel 3:11-12, 14).’

UK Day of Prayer & Action re Covid-19 – Sunday 22nd March

Posted on Tuesday, 17 March, 2020 by Richard Barker

[After a few hours dealing with readers’ Fb comments and hindered by google’s inability to search thoroughly – dare I say, skewed searching! – plus online journalism obscured by torrents of advertising (Daily Mail), at long last I’ve found news issued at midnight on a day of national prayer during this ‘pandemic’! Despite the nature of the situation, this announcement isn’t featured prominently but is just one of several items! PS 18th Mar, for the record: found article written by Anglican archbishops especially for the DM – In the time of dread we must all be good Samaritans: Archbishop of Canterbury JUSTIN WELBY and Archbishop of York JOHN SENTAMU says we should been (sic) looking out for friends and neighbours during coronaviral crisis. ] The following statement appears in Church Times’ Day of Prayer and Action: Light a Candle, say Church Leaders (click to read article) – intriguing it’s ‘22‘ yet again :

LIGHT A CANDLE OF HOPE: A NATIONAL CALL TO PRAYER IN THE MIDST OF THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC

This Mothering Sunday, 22 March, we are calling all churches to a National Day of Prayer and Action. At such a time as this, when so many are fearful and there is great uncertainty, we are reminded of our dependence on our loving Heavenly Father and the future that he holds.

At 7 p.m. this Sunday, light a candle in the windows of your homes as a visible symbol of the light of life, Jesus Christ, our source and hope in prayer. Whether you are continuing to worship as congregations or not, we have the great privilege and freedom to be able to call upon God, wherever we are, individually and corporately, for healing in our nation. We would pray for all in leadership at this time, making decisions about the containment of the Covid-19 virus, for those working in health and social care, and especially for the most vulnerable, whether elderly or those with underlying health conditions. There are already stories being told of wonderful acts of kindness across neighbourhoods. Alongside your prayers, take the opportunity to telephone or email someone who is isolated, buy some additional food for your local foodbank, or offer to deliver shopping for an elderly neighbour. We may not be able to touch physically, but we can make connections in so many other ways. In the meantime, do please attend to all the government health advice that will be issued, and look out for resources from your specific church governing bodies. At least for those of us in the global North, we do seem to be in unusual times, and wisdom and flexibility about worship gatherings are a key part of our Christian discipleship during this period. We note that this call to prayer and action comes on Mothering Sunday: a time of thankfulness, remembering especially mothers who have served us, often in very costly ways. It is also a very mixed day for many. For some the remembrance is painful, and for others Mothering Sunday is a reminder of disappointment or loss. In many ways, this period under the shadow of the coronavirus will be prompting similarly diverse reactions and so it seems especially appropriate that the call to prayer is made this Sunday. At this time of uncertainty join in with the National Day of Prayer and Action, lighting a candle of hope. “Cast all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.” 1 Peter 5.7 Presidents of Churches Together in England: Archbishop Justin Welby, The Archbishop of Canterbury Cardinal Vincent Nichols, The Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster Revd Dr Hugh Osgood, The Free Churches Moderator Archbishop Angaelos of London, CTE President for the Orthodox Churches Pastor Agu Irukwu, CTE Pentecostal President The signatories are supported by Churches Together in Britain and Ireland, Cytûn, the Church of Scotland and the Evangelical Alliance.

PS to Monday newsmix – Justin Welby on Wuhan pandemic

Thank you ‘unholyjoe’ for providing this link to Anglican Ink buried deep in cyber-space!

Archbishop of Canterbury Message on Wuhan Virus Pandemic

Published 14th March, in my humble opinion, it’s full of pastoral pleasantries but lacks any spiritual leadership whatsoever on behalf of the UK. Little wonder journalist Heffer nor myself could find it (I tried for ‘Welby national prayer call’ – but too simplistic!)

Two prophecies on coronavirus outbreak – tide is turning!

Posted on Monday, 2 March, 2020 by Richard Barker

Here are two prophetic words for us to weigh, watch and test for early fulfillment, thus sticking their necks above the parapet on this one! GOD TV’s Saturday afternoon (29 Feb) newsletter features an insight from TV host, author, producer and Christian minister Shawn Bolz,:

“The Lord showed me the end of the Coronavirus…the tide is turning now!

“He is answering the prayers and cries of the nations and is putting an end in sight. The exaggerated fear-based tactics of both the enemy and several media outlets for political reasons is coming to an end. The enemy has been trying to distract and steal from several equally important purposes and issues by dominating airwaves with conspiracy and fear.

“Even now several vaccines are coming out as well as a natural dying out of the virus itself. The Lord is saying, “I am removing the threat of this.”

“Within a short amount of time the extreme threat will feel like it is in the way past.

The very moment I call to you for a father’s help the tide of battle turns and my enemies flee. This one thing I know: God is on my side! (Psalm 56:9)”

Moreover, the previous evening, Friday 28th February, Veronika West writes:

CORONA VIRUS; “ANGELS DRESSED IN CRIMSON GARMENTS, WEARING CROWNS OF GOLD…ON A MERCY MISSION/ASSIGNMENT TO BREAK THE DEMONIC DEATH-THREAD OF THE DISEASE”…!

Today I was suddenly taken into a powerful vision where I was shown Angels dressed in RADIANT CRIMSON GARMENTS WITH GOLD CROWNS UPON THEIR HEADS, and they were moving with great speed and in many different directions across the NATION OF CHINA AND MANY OTHER DIFFERENT NATIONS OF THE EARTH…now as I looked again at these incredible Angels who were dressed in CRIMSON GARMENTS AND CROWNED WITH GOLD…suddenly I saw a DARK BLACK THREAD COME UP BEFORE ME….the thread looked like THICK FIBROSIS ROPE…and as I came up closer in the vision I watched as the Crimson Angels took hold of the dark fibrosis thread in their hands and they began to break the thread in many pieces and in many different places…and as I watched, I saw the dark thick fibrous thread being completely disintegrated and destroyed and suddenly I heard these words:

”MY CRIMSON ANGELS, CROWNED WITH MY AUTHORITY ON A MERCY MISSION/ASSIGNMENT TO BREAK THE DEMONIC DEATH-THREAD OF DISEASE”..!

As I heard those words…I immediately began to pray in the spirit concerning the Coronavirus and felt a quickening in the realm of the Spirit that a BREAKING OF THE DEMONIC DEATH-THREAD OF THE CORONAVIRUS WAS BEING DONE IN THE REALM OF THE SPIRIT and that we would begin to see the threat and death-thread of this virus soon being downgraded….and…AS I CONTINUED TO PRAY, I HEARD THE SPIRIT SAY, “MY GREAT MERCY WILL BE POURED OUT UPON THE NATIONS BECAUSE OF THE CRIES OF MY RIGHTEOUS REMNANT THAT HAVE COME BEFORE MY THRONE NIGHT AND DAY”..!

As I heard the Spirit say those words, I saw again THE ANGELS DRESSED IN RADIANT CRIMSON GARMENTS WITH GOLD CROWNS UPON THEIR HEADS and it was quickened to me that these were ANGELS THAT WERE CROWNED AND MANTLED WITH THE POWER AND THE AUTHORITY OF THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF THE SAVIOUR…THE POWER AND THE AUTHORITY THEY CARRIED BROKE THE POWER OF THE DARK DEATH-THREAD OF THE DISEASE THAT WAS SPREADING ACROSS THE NATIONS…!

Friends…LET US CONTINUE TO WATCH AND PRAY WITH GREAT EXPECTATION… ”THE MERCY OF GOD SHALL INTERVENE AND THE COVENANT BLESSING OF OUR SAVIOUR SHALL OVERCOME”.

Check out a POWERFUL WORD POSTED IN 2016…”CRIMSON WAVE BREAKING FORTH UPON THE NATIONS”… (published on His Kingdom Prophecy 23 August 2016)

A CRIMSON WAVE BREAKING FORTH UPON THE EARTH…in this powerful encounter I also saw Angels dressed in Crimson garments wearing crowns upon their heads…I saw THE NATIONS OF CHINA, USA, INDIA, EUROPE AND AUSTRALIA…I believe this encounter is more so significant in light of the CORONAVIRUS that we are now seeing within these NATIONS…!

Leisa Ebere: a vision concerning coronavirus

Posted on Friday, 7 February, 2020 by Richard Barker

Leisa emails me yesterday: ‘The Lord took me into an open vision and has shown me specifically what has been happening concerning the Coronavirus in China. It is a sobering vision, but also gives us hope that His Sovereign Will is at work. Praise God! Here is the vision below:

THE CORONAVIRUS VISION

‘The Lord took me into an open vision and I found myself looking down at a map of China, and I saw a hand from the heavenly realm draw a trajectory from Wuhan to Nanjing, and then to Taiwan, and I saw a cheribim with four wings carrying looked like powder, as black as coal dust, and fly across these regions and sprinkle the black dust over them. Then I saw the Lord place a plumb-line into the ground of these regions of China and Taiwan, and I knew somehow that this was the carrying out of Amos 7:7-8. And then the Lord spoke in a clear voice and said:

“I have allowed the enemy by divine legal right to clear out the abominations that are being carried out by evil people through practices of black magic and entrapments of the innocent. For they shall no longer be allowed to release evil in this way, as I am stirring up these places to rise up and embrace harvest as My Sovereign Hand brings cleansing and a New Day by My Spirit. But be assured My People, that My Remnant will be preserved and prosper, as these lands transition from defilement to ‘holiness and righteousness’. Yea, My Sovereign Will is at work,” said the Lord of Hosts.’

Bless You, Leisa Ebere

Bible Update: ‘Gog-Magog’ game-changing event on Israel’s border

Posted on Wednesday, 14 August, 2019 by Richard Barker

This morning’s news brings a reminder, in the midst of the current political upheavals, of what Bible prophecy points to: an almighty battle near the Mount of Megiddo, otherwise known in Greek as ‘Armageddon’!

In the previous update we heard about Russia and China’s increasing influence in Africa and noted publication of a most comprehensive US Congressional testimony entitled “Moscow in the Middle East and North Africa” documenting Russia’s active, aggressive and shrewd alignment with the nations of Ezekiel, chapters 38-39. Now comes this development:

DebkaFile reports Russia lets Hezbollah-Iranian forces redeploy opposite Syrian-Israel border; in other words, it looks like Putin has reneged upon his agreement with Israel and USA (emphasis mine). This exclusive reads:

‘Deep apprehension in Israel over a Russian U-turn, which is letting small Iranian Al Qods and Hizballah units regain former positions 10-15km from the Israeli and Jordanian borders. They are coming back after Russian forces drove them out last year and established a safe zone at those border districts in their stead.

‘Reporting this turn of events, DEBKAfile’s military and intelligence sources add that the Russian forces, not content with allowing this Iranian-Hizballah comeback, have also evacuated their own positions, leaving the local population under the control of the Al Qods and Hizballah invaders. These actions violate Russian President Vladimir Putin’s commitment last year to US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to purge S. Syrian borders of the hostile elements ruled from Tehran and provide monitors for a safe zone.

‘Washington and Jerusalem have interceded strongly with Moscow against this breach while trying to establish whether they were ordered from Putin’s office in the Kremlin or the local command on a directive from the Russian defense ministry. For now, neither the US nor Israel has decided how to respond to the new pro-Iranian buildup at Israel’s back door. They are also trying to find out if the Russian step is Moscow’s response to the US-Turkish safe zone initiative for northeastern Syria. This week, a large American unit landed in southern Turkey to start activating the joint US-Turkish safe zone, which aims to separate the Turkish army from the pro-US SDF militia which is dominated by Syrian Kurds. Moscow may have opened the door to Iran in southern Syria to counter expanding US involvement in the north.

‘Israel showed first resistance to the new hostile presence at its border on July 24 by firing surface missiles at the intelligence stations Iran was setting up on the Tal Al-Harara hilltop opposite the Golan border. But the Russian move continued notwithstanding.’

Bible Update: ‘Gog-Magog’ moves into Africa and meets ‘Kings of the East’

Posted on Wednesday, 19 June, 2019 by Richard Barker

Ezekiel 38

Gog and Allies Attack Israel

Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, ²“Son of man, set your face against Gog, of the land of Magog, ^[a]the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal, and prophesy against him, ³and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal. ⁴I will turn you around, put hooks into your jaws, and lead you out, with all your army, horses, and horsemen, all splendidly clothed, a great company with bucklers and shields, all of them handling swords. ⁵Persia, ^[b]Ethiopia, and ^[c]Libya are with them, all of them with shield and helmet; ⁶Gomer and all its troops; the house of Togarmah from the far north and all its troops—many people are with you…”

Ezekiel 39

Gog’s Armies Destroyed

“And you, son of man, prophesy against Gog, and say, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Behold, I am against you, O Gog, ^[a]the prince of Rosh, Meshech, and Tubal; ²and I will turn you around and lead you on, bringing you up from the far north, and bring you against the mountains of Israel…” (NKJV – BibleGateway)

In last Friday’s in-depth news-roundup Koenig’s Eye-View From The White House, the presidential seat’s ‘resident’ Christian journalist William Koenig reports:

‘The Congressional testimony entitled “Moscow in the Middle East and North Africa” presented by Anna Borshchevskaya is extremely comprehensive. It documents Russia’s active, aggressive and shrewd alignment with the nations of Ezekiel, chapters 38-39. It also shows how Russia is out-positioning the United States in many countries. The testimony even mentioned that Benjamin Netanyahu has met with Russian President Vladimir Putin more often than he did with the Obama administration or has with the Trump White House. I highly recommend you take the time to read the entire testimony.‘ (emphasis mine)

Here’s some of its pertinent parts that Bill quotes:

With a combination of aggression and diplomacy, Russian president Vladimir Putin has ensured Russia’s long-term prominence in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Washington must now take Moscow into account in the region to a degree it hasn’t had to for years.
Moscow’s September 2015 military intervention in Syria was a game changer, but it’s important to remember that, prior to the intervention, Putin had worked methodically and consistently for at least fifteen years to return Russia to the Middle East—a region that has historically mattered to Russian rulers. While he had achieved considerable influence by as early as 2010, the Syria intervention officially restored Russia’s place as a critical regional player and helped position Putin as a regional power-broker.
Putin has developed pragmatic ties with every government and major opposition movement in the region—an approach that has proven more successful than the Soviet Union’s ideological blinkering.
The region’s leaders feel comfortable dealing with Putin, who appeals to their self-interest. They covet Russian weaponry and hedge their bets in the uncertainty of U.S. policy. Moscow doesn’t ask Middle East leaders to improve the human rights situation in their countries.
American allies in the region, from Egypt, Turkey, Israel, the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), and Morocco, to one degree or another, have come to see Putin as a necessary reality and a more reliable partner than the United States—a mediator who can talk to all sides. Not only has the Kremlin courted every major government and opposition movement in the region, but increasingly, they conversely court the Kremlin.
The Kremlin has been careful and holds its cards close when it comes to its ultimate intentions in Libya, but Russia’s presence in the country is real:
Saudi Arabian King Salman made a historic visit to Moscow in October 2017, which demonstrates Moscow’s accepted prominence in the region.
Arms and nuclear deals play an important role in Egypt’s increasingly closer ties to Russia.
Moscow is also building Turkey’s nuclear power plant. Erdogan’s ongoing discussion about the purchase of S- 400’s from Moscow would have been unthinkable even a decade ago but increasingly appears to reflect reality rather than mere posturing.
Morocco has grown closer to Russia in terms of Moscow’s support for Morocco’s nuclear energy.

CHINA

The Testimony also covers China’s involvement in the Middle East, which so far is mainly economic with a military and political component.

Also, here’s ‘Rosh’, the leader of the Gog-Magog alliance at a summit with that ‘king’ of the East, who stated that,

“Beijing will continue to promote steady development of ties with Tehran no matter how the situation changes.” Xi condemned Washington’s unilateral pullout from the 2015 nuclear deal with Tehran as the main reason behind rising tensions in the region, calling for the promotion of multilateralism. He stressed that Beijing will continue its strategic relations with Tehran in various fields, including fighting terrorism and systematic crimes.’

Let’s see what scripture says about them in Revelation 16:

Sixth Bowl: Euphrates Dried Up

¹²Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way of the kings from the east might be prepared. ¹³And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs coming out of the mouth of the dragon, out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. ¹⁴For they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings ^[g]of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.

A prophetic perspective on UK & Brexit, Ireland, Europe, USA & China

Posted on Tuesday, 5 July, 2016 by Richard Barker

Paul Barfett’s perspective published on facebook a week ago today, ‘coincides’ with my declaring ‘A New Day- UK’s Independence Day’ during polling yet against the odds and severe internet disconnection (as here):

A PROPHETIC STATEMENT CONCERNING THE UK, IRELAND, USA AND CHINA

The UK and Brexit

Approximately eight years ago God spoke these words to me:

“I will remove the UK from Europe.”

At that time there was no likelihood of a referendum on European membership. God has shown me all my life that it never was his calling upon the UK to be yoked and submitted to European governmental authority. Additionally, God made it very clear to me that he could only use, and will use, the UK once again as a revivalist and sending nation after he had removed the UK from the EU.

During Brexit polling day afternoon, God confirmed to me that he was about to perform his word and remove the UK from the EU.

Why did God need to remove GB from Europe?

The EU does not structurally acknowledge God Almighty, therefore the UK could not remain under the covering and governance of an intentionally, Godless organisation if God was to use the UK again in an enormously powerful move of God, in these very last days. During 2015, at a gathering in London of Christians in Government, I prophesied to the leader of this group:

“God will tear down the Government of this nation and rebuild it.”

This is now exactly what will happen as the UK disentangles itself from many EU laws and restores the sovereignty of the UK as an independent nation.

Ireland

God has been telling me for many years that he will birth the revival of Europe in Ireland and that I am to continue ministering in Ireland until revival comes. Thereafter will come the revival of England and the rest of the UK, then continental Europe. Revival will come through the raising up of Worship Altars which involve the restoration of the Tabernacle of David and the restoration of holiness to worship.

The USA and China

God spoke to me in 2012 with these words:

“The USA had my word. The USA had everything. The USA has despised my word. I will do a mighty work in China.”

The understanding I got with this word was that part of the favour of God on the USA he will shift to China, in his timing. God has indicated that he will send me to many nations in five of the six continents and that he will use my revival ministry calling in both the USA & China where the Government of China will receive Prophet Paul.

The Post-Brexit Message to the UK

The majority of the UK establishment supported Remain which was directly opposed to the will, plan & purposes of God for the UK. Sadly far too many Christian leaders joined with Politicians and declared for Remain. Consequently many Christians are wrongly distraught at the Brexit outcome as a result of the misleading, false and flesh statements made by career, Christian leaders.

God now wants it to be known that HE has removed the UK from Europe, that HIS ways are higher than man’s ways and that the UK is in HIS hands.

The re-birthing of the UK as an independent, sovereign, self-governing nation will involve labour pains. However, in due time, the world will see that the nation God has used most throughout history, after Israel, for the proclamation of the gospel of Jesus Christ will be used again in the most extensive way for his glory and for the final, end-time harvest of souls, in these very last days.

2017, the significance of 70 years and Smith-Wigglesworth’s vision

Posted on Monday, 11 April, 2016 by Richard Barker

Upon reading the full transcript of Malcolm Duncan’s message it resonated deeply within my spirit – as well as directly relating to personal experiences. Please bear with me as some of it necessitates reiteration.

Revd Malcolm Duncan We should note Malcolm’s reservations mirror those of Wigglesworth’s contemporaries over his unorthodox, questionable ministry methods – but whatever the Lord wanted to heal or expel got accomplished. (Bobby Conner recounts his astonishment at seeing a dubious church leader in Jesus’ presence but being rebuked because he’s the Lord’s servant!) Malcolm’s remarks upon weighing what the Lord may be saying is an object lesson in the prophetic. NB:

“…Denis shouted “And brother I came into the kingdom in 1947” and the minute he said it I thought, “I think God is saying something to me”.
“I think Denis…he used you as a prophetic voice…So what came into my head was “the Smith Wigglesworth prophecy of 1947”.
“I turned to Pauline and said, “Did Smith Wigglesworth prophesy his prophecy in 1947?”, and she said, “I don’t know but I was born in 1947”.
“But as soon as I heard Denis I thought of the Smith Wigglesworth prophecy, which was very unusual for me and made me think, “What are you saying Lord?” I went back and I read it again and thought – “There is something stirring in my spirit here.” (Emphasis added)

Pauline’s reaction is mine too for I always recall that vision’s year is my birth year. Also, the timing of 50 years until my witnessing his prayer partner’s ecstatic joy at also seeing what will be happening across the British Isles is etched in my memory, as told in the previous post.

Yet there’s another reason – and it connects into Malcolm’s thoughts on 70 years as being significant. AND I can offer what he doesn’t – a confirmatory explanation! He said,

“2017 is 70 years after the prophecy was given. 2017 is also 50 years after Jean Darnall’s prophecy, which was given in 1967, when she saw little fires across the UK ablaze and then a river flowing through the UK and into Europe…

“Is God saying something with these two things? The 50th year after Jean Darnall’s prophecy, a year of jubilee. The 70th year after Smith Wigglesworth prophecy, just like there were 70 years of captivity for Israel…I feel like Daniel must have felt like when he found Jeremiah’s promise after 70 years and said, after 70 years I am going to do something.

NOW, this leads into something I’d intended to finish relating to revelations upon timings received last April. I will be more concise than when I was trying to formulate and clarify what I was learning.:

On Good Friday 2015 Charles Shamp taught on the coming September’s fourth blood-moon as marking the beginning of the time of the Army of God. He believes it starts a two-year period that’s open for all believers, but especially for a glorious company praying things from the Age to Come. Thus, the two years until September 2017 will be an extra-special period, not judgmental and destructive.

The details are recounted in A Scriptural context of…the Blood-Moon Tetrad; and under ‘2015 Feast of Tabernacles Blood-Moon’ header in its follow-up post I reported Charlie’s reasons. Those posts were written last September, but the first ones on that Passover-Easter conference appeared a year ago this month. Furthermore, I blogged about the personal significance of 40 and 55 year periods in ‘God-incidents’ Validate Cycles and Point to Near-Future.

70-Years Period

I didn’t, however, explain the personal relevance of 70 years to 23rd September 2017.

As in those posts, Charlie relates that date to the prophet Daniel’s forecast and bequest to the Magi of his revelation on ‘The Star of Bethlehem’; a reappearance of which is expected in astronomical stellar and planetary alignments of 23.9.2017 (note: not astrology!). More specifically, this future event relates to Revelation 12:1 – John’s vision of the woman clothed with the sun. (For more read Nelson Walters Who Is the Woman of Rev.12?)

My reaction was – “My 70th birthday’s the day before!”. So the 23rd September 2017 will start a new 70-year period for me.

70 is a biblically sacred number the two factors of which are perfect numbers, 7 and 10 representing perfection and completeness respectively. As such, it symbolizes perfect spiritual order carried out with all power, and can also represent a period of judgment (courtesy BibleStudy.org, which gives other examples to those Malcolm cites). Also, Jewish scholars teach that ‘The Torah has 70 Faces’, or levels of interpretation!

Last year saw 70th anniversary celebrations over the end of World War II, and other occasions. 2017 will be the 70th anniversary of crucial events in the birth of the state of Israel. In A Few Thoughts To Mark the Occasion of the 67th birthday of that state, Joel Rosenberg writes about a critical occasion in 1947 on the UN Partition Plan for Palestine upon the British withdrawal from that Mandated Territory, as follows:

‘To succeed, the Partition Plan needed a two-thirds majority vote of the U.N. General Assembly. With just days to go before that historic vote on November 29, 1947, however, supporters of the plan were still three votes short. Some have suggested that President Truman personally called leaders of other nations to encourage them to support the American position. Others say he didn’t but that staff in his administration did; the record is not clear. Either way, most historians—including David McCullough, who won the Pulitzer Prize for his extraordinary biography Truman—acknowledge that Truman wanted the plan to pass and played a role behind the scenes. In the end, Truman got his way. The Partition Plan dramatically passed at the last moment, thirty-three to thirteen, with ten abstentions’.

2017 – Unity

Malcolm Duncan gives his reasons for 2017 being a significant year and seeing a move of God in the UK, for which he believes God is asking us to get ready in many ways. I will cover this essential aspect in another post…

By the way, Erik Hadik, the financial analyst I occasionally blog about, gave this forecast last June on 2017:

‘The culmination of so many diverse cycle in 2017 keeps receiving powerful validation. For instance, the convergence of 8-year, 17-year and 40-year cycles – all related to China – have been forecast to accelerate into 2017.’

We shall see what we shall see…

Two brief recommended readings

Posted on Thursday, 20 December, 2012 by Richard Barker

1. United Kingdom’s decrease of values

A few posts ago I referred to a careful critique of an item on the Conservative Party and Israel by the Telegraph’s chief political editor Peter Oborne. He has now done a further analysis of this governing party’s loss of its core values and which His Grace Cranmer rates as, “one of the most perceptive analyses of the contemporary Conservative Party in a very long time”. You may therefore like to read this review on Cranmer’s blog. (The cartoon refers to Her Majesty’s attendance at a Cabinet Meeting as part of her Diamond Jubilee celebrations.)

2. God’s Kingdom increase in China

If you’ve not yet read the very well written article to which the previous post linked then I would urge you to do so now. The underground church’s strategy for the Islamic bloc of nations and the Jews is most inspirational in view of the vision that blessed me in 1992 (as here). Also, the fact these marvellous things started after a Holy Spirit visitation in 1988, years before coming to Toronto and then to Brownsville was new to me.

In addition, this exceptional report reminded me of the extensive footage from China shown in The Finger of God dvd, as well as the true stories of Brother Yun and of the tremendous visions bestowed upon non-Christian orphans and street urchins in Yuman province. These may be read in The Heavenly Man and in Visions beyond the Veil, the details of which may be read below.:
