Jigsaw pieces cont’d (2): the Lord’s sword – His Kingdom – Crusade – Shaking

Reminder from original post: ‘Please note, I’m always wary of prophecies about dates, but that previous post covers very specific points on which I was about to write and they’d occurred, just like my picking individual pieces of a jigsaw out of a box, viz:

Carols – Isaiah – PRAY – SWORD – Putting Christ Back vs Islam – Crusades – Bondi Beach murders – unusual dream – Bill Johnson quote – my dream – query re BJ > 2011 KINGDOM – Goliath no sword – P4N prayer note – Kingdom word 17/12 > sword and shaking – TFC! (20/12)

Pieces Thus Far:
  1. Vision of sweeping sword on asking about Jesus’ Kingdom per Isaiah 9 and 11
  2. Putting Christ back into Christmas and taking stand against Islam – a Crusade! (Next day saw Muslims murder Jews celebrating Hanukkah on Bondi Beach)
  3. Dream of blogging, Bill Johnson, my 2011 dream setting up the Kingdom.

NEXT, I find the Lord is using prophetical teamwork in order to establish a matter (Deut 19:15) and as Paul writes to the early Corinthian church “For you can all prophesy in turn so that everyone may be instructed and encouraged” (1Cor 14:31).

4th JIGSAW PIECE

The first three pieces appeared over Fri-Sun 12-14th December, then on Tuesday 16th one of our house group emailed me as follows,

“Hi Richard, Thought you might be interested in this.
I’m not too sure what this means: “Goliath is about to appear and we are an army without a sword facing the biggest battle of our lives.”

As you and I know, I was most certainly interested and knew about the sword – and more was yet to come! So at our evening group told him about what I’d seen during Friday’s worship with carols evening.

My brother quoted a remark in a message he attached entitled, ‘A Christmas update from the Don’t Walk In The Dark Project’ (based in Wales at The Big Rock cafe on Porthmadog high street). That email begins “..Yet as my mind is drawn to Don’t Walk In The Dark we have woken up to a Hanukkah massacre on Bondi Beach, Australia. With 15 killed and numbers rising it is a tragic proof that we live in increasing darkness.”

Most pertinently, my house group brother’s single sentence falls within this paragraph (emphases mine):

“The Don’t walk in the Dark project is a call to the church to wake up and strengthen the things that remain. The darkness has come upon us and without the word of God we are without a light and hopeless walk in the dark blindly leading the blind. Goliath is about to appear and we are an army without a sword facing the biggest battle of our lives. Since 2022 we taken the challenge ourselves and have begun to produce resources to challenge the church to pick up their Bibles, read their Bibles and dare to live separately according to its truths.'”

So, do you see how this God-incidental ‘out-of-the-blue’ email query connects directly like a jigsaw piece into the previous three I’d already seen? WE NOW HAVE A SWORD!

Goliath was the gigantic warrior of the Philistine army that shepherd boy David slew, as told in 1 Samuel 17, thus we perceive its demonic spirit has again arisen within Muslims against the Jewish people and their Covenantal Land, as well as Christians in a ‘global intifada’ inspired and empowered by satan itself!

YET MORE was yet to come…two days as well as a fortnight later…!!

5th JIGSAW PIECE

Next, but unknown to me two days later on Thursday 18th, Mary K Dullforce blogged about Revival returning to Wales and yesterday – a fortnight after 4th piece of the Lord’s invisible jigsaw coming out of the box – she comments upon Prophecies on Jesus’ Holy Titles and Fulfilment as follows:

“The LORD prompted me to re-post and send forth in a Blaze Campaign this prophetic message about Revivals again breaking forth in nations during the Christmas and New Year Season in this year and the years to come. This Word of Knowledge and Revelation dovetails to confirm the Three Rivers Prophecy I received in 2011 and later was received and re-confirmed to Veronika West in 2025.

So I am sharing the same Blogpost with you here. It received over 6,900 clicks in over 16 countries during the 4 day campaign on WordPress.”

Christmas times Of Revival Coming Again!

Therein Mary writes,

“…I later heard The LORD Decree after I picked up this artwork after the event the following declaration and decree:

“I have called Wales to become once more the Fulcrum of My Initiative for Revival to spread throughout the nations.”

The division will be self evident between those who reject Him and draw away from Him. I received two scripture references when I painted this prophetic artwork at the English – Welsh Border Prayer Walk Event in 2011. First, as I painted, I heard this reference to Isaiah 64:1-2 and second Luke 12:49-53.”

3rd JIGSAW PIECE

Friday-Saturday 12-13th December I had an unusual dream about my blogging and its purpose, then later saw and shared something on Facebook that seemed to connect into my vision during the carol service:

A reader queried this and I replied as below:

Anyone tracking my personal Facebook timeline or this blog’s ‘Noticeboard’ and Prophecy Validations on Telegram will be aware of blog-related ‘quickies’ thereon, whereas this blog covers long-term ongoing topics that crop up, as with the five posts on Russiagate and 2020 election exposures.

However, they – along with pre-Christmas busyness – diverted me from writing about a personal vision I’d had; but the delay fitted into the Lord’s timescale of confirmation in a word my prophet friend would publish. BUT then, yet another dropped onto me that had to take immediate priority as it claimed to have a time-stamp of manifestation – AND now today too.

Please note, I’m always wary of prophecies about dates, but that previous post covers very specific points on which I was about to write and they’d occurred rather like my picking individual pieces of a jigsaw out of its box, viz:

Carols – Isaiah – PRAY – SWORD – Putting Christ Back vs Islam – Crusades – Bondi Beach murders – unusual dream – Bill Johnson quote – my dream – query re BJ > 2011 KINGDOM – Goliath no sword – P4N prayer note – Kingdom word 17/12 > sword and shaking – TFC! (20/12)

Now let’s see how they may fit together:

1st JIGSAW PIECE

Since Summer we’ve been blessed to attend monthly Holy Spirit-filled worship evenings at Waverley Abbey College. Friday 12th December was held indoors with local superb choristers of schoolchildren augmented by senior male voices. A most heavenly ascent of Christmas carols included the usual scripture readings of Isaiah’s prophecies and I reflected in particular upon verses of the coming One’s Kingdom rulership (emphases mine; Isaiah 9 proceeds to tell how that will happen in those times):

Isaiah 9:6-7 – The Government of the Promised Son

‘For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of His government and peace
There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.’

Isaiah 11 – The Reign of Jesse’s Offspring

‘There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse,
And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
2 The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him,
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and might,
The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord.

3 His delight is in the fear of the Lord,
And He shall not judge by the sight of His eyes,
Nor decide by the hearing of His ears;
4 But with righteousness He shall judge the poor,
And decide with equity for the meek of the earth;
He shall strike the earth with the rod of His mouth,
And with the breath of His lips He shall slay the wicked.
5 Righteousness shall be the belt of His loins,
And faithfulness the belt of His waist.’ (NKJV)

Yet another confirmation comes in this morning’s devotional by Revd David Strutt in Sanctuary wherein he cites Isaiah 11:10 (NASB > interesting comparison with NKJV):

‘Then in that day the nations will resort to the root of Jesse, Who will stand as a signal for the peoples; And His resting place will be glorious.’

‘And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse, Who shall stand as a banner to the people; For the Gentiles shall seek Him, And His resting place shall be glorious.

The carols were followed by a brief teaching on P.R.A.Y. = PRAISE + REPENT + ASK + YIELD.

I asked the LORD about the rapidly increasing non-stop worldwide wickedness and when is He going to remove it, as promised in the parable of wheat and tares?

Next and although my eyes were open and clearly seeing the choir, about ten feet in front of me, my mind’s eye perceived darkness instead; BUT then a bright yellow-golden sword lies across my ‘sight’.

The blade is wide with triangular point, in ancient Roman style, and it is pointing straight in front of and away from me, although the hilt is unseen it must be below my chin.

Next, I see this sword’s flat blade sweep steadily from side to side, back and forth, to cut away whatever structures and controlling beings are in the darkness!! WOWEE!

I am reminded of Revelation 19 describing the End-times battle of Jesus as the mighty returning King (verse 15)

‘Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.’

There’s also Hebrews 4:12:

‘For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of thoughts and intents of the heart.’

2nd JIGSAW PIECE

Next day saw the Putting Christ Back Into Christmas worship rally in central London, to take a stand against the anti-Christ spirit that’s arisen in and dominating Britain.

However, that demon’s stooges murdered and wounded dozens of people the next day on Bondi Beach, Australia, who were celebrating the Jewish festival of Hanukkah.

It struck me, therefore, that ongoing widespread attacks against Christians in Europe and in Nigeria by Muslims is a satanic strategy to retrogress civilisation 1,400 years to the Dark Ages. Soon after the death of their founder, Muslims attacked and invaded nations outside Arabia, including Jerusalem 1,390 years ago – Replacement Theology misses significance of Jesus’ warning of The Abomination of Desolation refers. It took well over 400 years for the Western Church to raise Crusaders (Christian armies) to remove Islam from Jerusalem for 145 years. A subsequent history led to 400 years of Ottoman Empire rule until the city was liberated by General Allenby in 1917 and came under the British Mandate (visit Jewish Virtual Library).

THEREFORE, IT IS NOW TIME FOR CHRISTIANS TO RISE AGAINST THE ANTICHRIST SPIRIT BY RAISING THE LEVEL TO A SPIRITUAL CRUSADE AGAINST SATAN.

Urgent near-death revelation for TODAY

Posted on by
2

December is always busy in prepping for Christmas and I’m drafting a post about some personal ‘jigsaw pieces’ for – to mix metaphors – we know there’s often a hidden thread in our lives but…STOP PRESS!

This video popped up yesterday as though to support my stance in a contentious thread about Israel, Jews and Christianity.

Description: A devout Jewish scholar dies on a storm-soaked highway and is thrust into a profound near-death experience (NDE) that dismantles the certainty he carried for decades. In this NDE—where awareness continues even as the body breaks—he is confronted by Jesus and given a message that carries urgent weight before December 22. What he witnesses overturns a lifetime of Jewish tradition as he understood it, revealing truth he never allowed himself to consider. His return becomes a warning shaped by impact, silence, and revelation, urging every viewer to pay attention before time runs out. Watch until the end.’

Not only the whole account is startling but also from my perspective its confirmation of my long-standing blogging theme of the Hebrews 12:25-29 profound Shaking plus my recent focus on Isaiah 9 and 11 (to be recounted in next post), are both featured in the Lord’s narrative to the ‘deceased’ rabbi at these timepoints:

11.07 – “…they are spiritually anorexic, they have replace d the Bread of Life with distractions of the enemy and because they are weak when the Shaking comes – and it IS coming – they will not have the strength to endure..”

21:24 – “..but My own are anchored to a Kingdom that cannot be shaken..” 23:31 – “..as the Shaking intensifies..”  (the huge grand trees fell because their roots are shallow but the small insignificant shrubs don’t fall when the earthquake strikes because these small plants had roots that went down for miles they have long strong roots going deep into the soil and anchored deep into the bedrock)…

24:28 – “The Root of Jesse“, Jesus said, “The storm that is coming will not respect fame.. they will stand because they are rooted in Me” 

Isaiah 11 – The Reign of Jesse’s Offspring

There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse,
And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
2 The Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon Him,
The Spirit of wisdom and understanding,
The Spirit of counsel and might,
The Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord. (NKJV)

A ‘God-incidental’ republishing and a prophetic foreshadowing of the Tabernacle and Revival

Posted on by
Reply

In a short time-slice at my pc on yesterday afternoon (Wednesday) I recalled contacting the author Peter Russell-Yarde several weeks ago, yet remain quite clueless on what I may have intended to do – or not – BUT then this flash of inspiration on a ‘holy connection’ hits me like a lightning-strike:

You may recall Veronika West’s account of what she heard from the Lord during Charlie Kirk’s memorial service in Arizona on 21st September, the eve of Rosh Hashanah – God’s glory going from a Tabernacle to Stadiums (another personal confirmation) – and published later by His Kingdom Prophecy:

It so happened concurrently a new paperback edition of one of Peter Russell-Yarde’s books was in preparation and became available on Amazon a month later, as described below:

‘The unique design of the Tent of the Meeting (or Tabernacle of Moses as its is also known) which was built strictly according to God’s instructions, clearly illustrates how God proposed to provide man with a permanent means of salvation. From the moment it was designed and constructed by those gifted by God, the Jews had before them the key to the complete plan of salvation.

Peter Russell-Yarde looks at the layout of the tabernacle court and tent to discover all the information necessary to explain why the Messiah had first to come as a suffering servant and how, through understanding God’s word, it is possible for any member of the human race to become spiritually alive to God and enter into a real and dynamic relationship with Him. It explains in detail why the virgin birth was vital to the sinlessness of the Messiah, and why the temple curtain was rent in two from top to bottom at the time of the Messiah’s death on the cross.

Covering the scripture from Genesis to Revelation, this book takes the reader from the moment of Adam’s creation, through the fall, the calling of Abram and the development of the nation of Israel under Moses and entering into the Promise Land.

It details how the design of the tabernacle and its services were meant to bring the Jews into an intimate and spiritual relationship with their God. The arrival of the Messiah, His life, teaching and cruel death was all foretold in its design.

This book is a revelation of truth providing the seeker after truth with more answers than questions. The rabbi who commissioned the work describes it as awesome, stressing that it inspired in him both awe and wonder.’

Now a day later and about to begin our long weekend by scheduling this for later today I return to that strong recommendation of the above book by the author’s rabbinic mentor, and have this by Wiz McCormick on Facebook, with whom I’ve been in touch on another matter:

“The book ‘The Origins of Life’ was fantastic. My mind was racing to get to the next page because the spiritual milk and meat was satisfying. Go shop Peter Yarde on Amazon to buy his books. I recommend The Origins of Life and God who created us as a recommendation. Please you have to check him out. The spiritual food is intense > Peter Russell-Yarde.”

Is UK police shake-up another sign the Lord’s clearing rot?

Posted on by
Reply

Further my very first email citing MI5’s Dame Stella Rimington’s 2009 warning of the UK becoming a police state and my asking on Monday if BBC’s debacle may be heralding the Lord’s moving in the UK to expose and clear out rot and corruption, we have this welcome news today:

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/11/13/labour-to-scrap-police-and-crime-commissioners/

However, we have yet another episode of deliberate police activity against preaching, which I first read on Anglican Presbyter Revd Canon Brett Murphy’s Facebook where he remarks, “Turning adversity into a gospel opportunity! Nicely done”:

I modified my original “same death encounter with Jesus as I had” because it’s not to be construed by atheists as threatening, but is meant to make readers think very seriously about their own post-mortem future.

Suddenly knowing, as I did, that within the next second I’d drop dead and fall into hell when Jesus’ powerful glory approached was frightening! BUT in His gracious mercy He took me back to my early years’ home to change my childish false idea about Him. So it was very loving compared with my long-past encounter with a ‘devourer’ masquerading as cosmic light of nirvana!

So my statement is to shock readers in order to convey a sense of reality of being about to die and necessity of being prepared for what’s next – so it is really a BLESSING, in contrast to suppression of free-speech!

On a trapdoor into Hell – Jesus swoops to the rescue!

Britain at the Brink: A Prophetic Warning to a Sleeping Church – Revd Christopher Wickland

BRITAIN AT THE BRINK: A PROPHETIC WARNING TO A SLEEPING CHURCH

The pressure in our nation is rising like a boiling pot, ready to overflow. Britain stands at the brink — morally, spiritually, and socially — yet many within the Church seem unaware of how perilously close we are to collapse. History is repeating ppp.
Meanwhile, the world around us unravels. Lies are sold as truth, and truth is dismissed as hate. The media reframes evil with politically correct language, while the Church remains silent. In this vacuum, dark ideologies have taken root — ideologies that exalt humanism and deny divine order. Politicians and institutions uphold these systems even at the expense of human life, and the Church’s absence from the public square has allowed terrible evils to advance unchecked.

God is no longer in our politics, our classrooms, or our law courts. Justice has become a game of imbalance — the innocent punished while the guilty are defended. The moral fabric of our society is tearing apart, and the signs are all around us. Violence erupts on our streets, lives are lost senselessly, and yet we are told to look away, to keep calm, to believe the narrative.

The problem is not merely social decay — it is spiritual abandonment. Christianity is no longer enshrined in our laws, no longer taught in our schools, and scarcely lived in our homes. We have traded truth for tolerance, holiness for comfort, and discipleship for slogans about “love” that deny accountability and repentance.

But all is not lost. God still has plans for this nation — plans to prosper, not to harm. Yet those plans hinge on repentance. Britain must return to the true and living God. If we do not, we will find ourselves ruled by false gods and foreign ideologies that know nothing of mercy or compassion.

It is time for the Church to awaken and take her rightful place once more — in education, in politics, in law, in the home, and above all, in the place of prayer. The Christian faith once built this nation and made it great; it is the only hope that can restore her again.

This is not merely a matter of philosophy or theology. It is a matter of numbers — of souls. The Gospel must again permeate every sphere of British life. There is no other answer, no other ideology, and no other saviour that can heal this land.

Our only hope is Jesus Christ.
Our only foundation is His Word.
And our only path forward is repentance and return.

The BIG APPLE…the silver arrow and a small window of Time! – Veronika West

Posted on by
Reply

Posted on Veronika’s Ignite Ireland ministry Facebook and added emphases mine:
”THE BIG APPLE…THE SILVER ARROW AND A SMALL WINDOW OF TIME…!!

…Friends,…I wanted to submit for Urgent Prayer…two shorts dreams I had early hours of this morning,…5/11/2025

…these were two strange dream encounters,.. that I believe Speak to the Hour prophetically,…two encounters that need to be weighed and Warred over…

….So In the first Dream encounter,…

I was taken into what felt like a strange but all too familiar place,…a realm and dimension of the Spirit,…that my Spirit seemed to know,…and recognise..

…it felt like I was standing in the midst of the Garden of Eden…the atmosphere was weighty with powerful Prophetic revelation and symbolism,….

…Now as I was standing in this place,…suddenly I found myself looking at a large Apple (just for clarity sake…nowhere in the Bible does it mention that Eve ate an apple it simply says,.. ”She ate of the Fruit”… )

…As I was looking at the large Apple which was hanging low upon the branch of the tree,…

…I saw that the fruit looked ripe for harvest,…the Apple was very appealing and even enticing,… but in-spite of the outward appearance of the fruit,…

…I knew by the Spirit that the inside of the Apple was infested with worms….

…The fruit looked appetising….but was not good to eat…

…But then….suddenly,……I heard these words,…”THE BIG APPLE!”…

…And instantly,…I knew prophetically, that I was being shown “New York”….(The Big Apple!)…

…And As I heard those words,…the dream shifted,…

…and I found myself standing in a very large Orchard,…where there many fruit trees…all growing in neat rows…

…and I saw that a Time of Harvest had come upon the Orchard,…

…I saw that some of the fruit trees in the Orchard had already been Harvested,..

…but there there were some trees that still had ripening fruit upon the branches which were now ready to be picked… when suddenly,..

…I heard these Words,…”Watch!…For Harvest Time in Early Fall has begun”…

…Now as I heard those words,..my eyes were drawn back to the Tree and to the ripened apple that was infested with worms,..

…when suddenly, I saw a hand reach up and it picked the beautiful looking fruit off the branch,..

…and I watched as the fruit was then placed in a large bag with many other ripe Apples that were in need of sorting and washing…

…now as I stayed watching in the dream,…I knew by revelation that the Orchard spoke to the United States of America and that the many Fruit Trees in the Orchard,…spoke to the individual States of the Nation,…

…I also knew by Revelation that the Large Apple,.. Spoke to New York; THE BIG APPLE,…but it also spoke to the Newly Elected Muslim Mayor,….

…Furthermore,…I knew that the Orchard of Fruit Trees spoke…both,..to all Nations but also to the Church….

…There were many layers of Revelation within the dream that began to unfold before me,…

…Then the Spirit of Revelation made known to me that a Time of Great Harvest and Divine Judgement had surely begun within the Orchard of Nations,…

…there was a Divine Inspection and a Weighing in the Balance,…not only of the United States of America,.. but also of all the Nations…

…a Divine Inspection was underway of the Roots/Foundations of Nations….and the Fruits of the Trees/Nations,…and also…of the Global Church and its Leaders that were now being weighed in the Balance,…

…A Time of Divine Separation, Distinction, and Purification had come upon the Orchard….Hearts were being unveiled,…and all that had been hidden and concealed…that which appeared good outwardly,.. but was rotten at the core was being fully revealed and exposed….

…The hour was late, and the final harvest of the season was now underway….

…But then suddenly the dream shifts,…

…Where I was taken into a second dream encounter,.. where I saw the same Apple that had been picked from the tree in the first dream…the Apple infested with worms…

..Was Now,…resting upon the head of a man who was standing against a Tree…

…Now,.. As soon as my eyes saw the apple sitting on the man’s head…

…I heard these Words,…”The Fruit of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil”,…

…and as I heard those words,……Suddenly, I saw an Archer step forward in the dream….…and In his Left hand was a bow….and I watched as he raised his Right hand and reached behind his head, drawing a sharpened silver arrow from a sheath that was strapped to his back….

…And I watched as he set the silver arrow against the bowstring and He drew the arrow back with immense strength and power…

…I could hear the sound of the string of the bow groaning under the tension,…the sound was sharp and powerful as the Silver arrow was pulled taut in the bow,…

…And in that moment  in the dream,…

…the atmosphere became extremely weighty and I could tangibly feel a sense of great anticipation,…

…and yet I could feel the Spirit of the Fear of the Lord rising in the dream,…

…I watched intently as the Strong Right Arm of the Archer began to move the bow and shift the silver arrow into perfect alignment with the target…which was the Apple sitting upon the man’s head…

…And suddenly I heard these words,…

…”WATCH AND PRAY…FOR A DIVINE PREGNANT PAUSE,..A SMALL WINDOW OF TIME GIVEN FOR NATIONS TO RIGHTLY ALIGN WITH HEAVEN’S TIME…

…WATCH!…FOR THE SILVER ARROW OF MY JUDGEMENT AND JUSTICE SHALL BE RELEASED WITH POWER AND PRECISION TO EXPOSE THE HEART OF CORRUPTION AND TO DEAL A DEATH-BLOW TO THE ROOT OF DECEPTION THAT BROUGHT FORTH THE DEFILED FRUIT OF THE TREE OF THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOOD AND EVIL”…

..And as I heard those words,..I cried out in the dream,…

…”MERCY,…MERCY IN THE MIDST OF JUDGEMENT”…

…As I cried out for Mercy,..Mercy,…suddenly I saw the Silver Arrow being released from the Bow,.. and I watched as the Silver Arrow flew through the air with great power,.. accuracy and precision,…

..I watched as the arrow struck the fruit on top of the man’s head,…piercing it through,..

..And In the twinkle of an eye,. .the apple was shattered…fruit fragments scattering,…Nothing of the defiled fruit remained,…the Archers blow was final and absolute,…leaving only the mark of divine Judgment where decay had taken deep root….

…Again,…I knew by Revelation that the Divine Pregnant Pause and the Small Window of Time was a Marked Moment for the Remnant to Rise Up and to Cry out for Mercy in the midst of Judgement,…

…In that moment, as I watched the Silver Arrow Fly,…I knew that the Silver Arrow was in fact God’s Mercy before Final Rot…gave way to full Retribution…

…It was the last act of divine Restraint before Judgment would fall,.. a Holy intervention sent to expose the decay and the rot in the root and the fruit before total destruction could come….!!

…I knew that the Silver arrow spoke to the Redemptive Word of the Lord…sharp, precise, and filled with Kingdom Purpose and Destiny….God’s arrows are not instruments of random Destruction but they are weapons of Surgical Mercy released in the midst of Judgement and Great Harvest,…

…They are Arrows of Awakening Before the Rot of Corruption has time to destroy the Harvest,…He sends forth His Word to pierce and to separate,…to Divide and Conquer,..to Expose Truth from Deception….and Light from Darkness….

…In the Silver arrow which only struck the fruit sitting on the Head (Head – Speaks to Knowledge)…I submit prophetically means that the Arrow of God’s Truth is going forth in this hour to fully Reveal the Rot and to destroy the Counterfeit Covering so that the Nation/s can be spared…

…But if the person/Leader/Nation/State/Church clings to the very thing that the Silver Arrow of God is targeting…; Pride,…False Identity,…Human Knowledge and Deception,…then the Silver arrow becomes the Instrument of Judgment without Restraint..!!

…I submit prophetically that the Lord is speaking that His Rod/Arrow of Correction NOW…is Mercy before Final Rot takes over….; there is a Pregnant Pause and a small Window of Time that stands open over the Nations,…over the Church in which to Align with Heaven’s Time,…

…A Clarion Call for True Repentance…For a Time of Divine Awakening,…Exposure, Purification and Separation has surely begun.. the Hour is Late the Final Time of Judgement and Great Harvest is HERE…!!!

Blessings to you all.

Inspiring books on holy-writ by prolific Peter Russell-Yarde

Further to my above-linked introduction, as an encouraging recommendation Peter emailed this interesting comment, which he kindly permits me to share :

“In checking the galley for my book The Tent of the Meeting, rabbi Aaron asked me to write, I can understand why he and a graduate in the US described it as awesome. It is very deep teaching and I am amazed that I wrote it. At 250k + words it is not a small book.

This is what Aaron sent me (May 2007) from China when he was a missionary there:

“Decided to be slightly humorous in my comments, all the following comments are absolutely true. “Jesus very good ruler/king/warlord, cares for you and protects the old, (ill, weak, young, orphans, widows), Have faith in Him and be of respect for ever”. Is part of your work translated into Chinese and translated back again and then passed through a prayer group. Everything you write is absolutely true and a command of God, is the general concensus (sic) of opinion.

Just out of curiosity what it feel like have at least 400000 believing every word you say?

Currently have a class of 30 elders learning fluent English so they can read your words themselves. Would be very helpful if you did a short piece, (300000 words) on faith, worship and what it means to follow Jesus and just to make it interesting, you have to write it for a 12 year old. This means no big words

The 30 elders I am teaching English to have absolute faith in three things,

  1. God, Holy Spirit, Jesus
  2. Peter Russell-Yarde
  3. The Bible is the word of God

Asked them to write the 3 things that were important to them and thats the order they came in. Sorry Peter not going to worship you :))))))

Just spent 2 weeks convincing the 30 that you may be a prophet but God has not chosen to tell anybody yet which is unusual if you are a full blown prophet.

Then I had to explain about Temple Scribes, prophets and messengers and its not proper to worship people as God will be miffed (understating the case here ). Its quite frightening to see absolute faith in so many people and seeing things happen because they were prayed for is a bit awesome as well.

Only spent 2 days explaining we had to pray for you as well, their reply was “why we have to pray with Peter he talks to God?”

Hmmmmmmmm think I covered that pretty effectively but used a lot of “The Wrath Of God”, in my explanations of their views on that one. Got them worried for quite a long time until they pointed out that God has not told them different. If you came to China You would be worshipped as a Prophet or a Saint. You are an inspiration to a lot of people Peter,

Take care God Bless Aaron”

WHEELS-within-wheels continue with Revd Christopher’s video message showing events really are happening as outlined 16 years ago in my very first email/blog The Endgame IS Now In Play of 29 February 2009. Therein I write,

‘However, (forbidding prayer for patients in hospital) is just one instance of the growing persecution of believers, principally through a policy supposedly promoting toleration but that’s now a tyrannical tool of intolerance – Equality & Diversity. There are other powers of suppression. Even the previous director of MI5 warns about UK sleep-walking into a police state … Rampant lawlessness now exists not only in society but also within legal authorities – laws not approved by Parliament – ‘snoop and snitch’ culture – correction punished and evil behaviour rewarded – ID cards and routine interception of email and phones – etc etc. Clearly, Banking isn’t the only thoroughly corrupt UK institution.’

Several posts herein plus more on my personal Facebook and blog’s Telegram feature on police activity and arrests turning the UK into a fascist farce, and ridiculed across the ‘pond’ at presidential level. AND PM Starmer has digital identity cards in the pipeline!

SO we’re getting Apocalyptic, as in Revelation 13’s Mark of the Beast as I warned about from a personal insight “maSks only one letter away from maRk” (2024 summary).

So, it’s most encouraging that some church leaders have started speaking out….

Please take time to watch this half-hour sermon and I’m grateful to Chris Wickland for kindly providing this summary of the heart of this most serious issue (emphases RB):

THE RISE OF THE FOURTH REICH – Chris Wickland

What I want to talk about today is what I call the rise of the Fourth Reich.

In Nazi Germany, there was the Third Reich. For those who don’t know, “Reich” means kingdom or empire. According to Hitler:

  • The First Reich was the Roman Empire.
  • The Second Reich was Germany in its heyday.
  • The Third Reich was Hitler’s attempt to bring Germany to global prominence, which led to terrible atrocities under the guise of progress and nationalism.

The other night, Tracy and I watched the Bonhoeffer movie—Pastor, Spy, Assassin.

Watching it gave me chills because I saw parallels in Britain today. Initially, I thought the message was too strong, too much to share. But after recent events, it’s clear this is a time to speak, to challenge what’s happening.

In Bonhoeffer’s day, pastors were arrested for speaking the truth — 800 of them. How many pastors in Britain today would dare to speak the truth? Few, because reputation matters more than the cause of Christ.

A quote from the Daily Telegraph highlights current issues (RB: DT search results):

“The news that Maccabi Tel Aviv fans are to be banned from attending Aston Villa’s Europa League match in Birmingham is perhaps the highest-profile example yet of two-tiered policing. This case lays bare an ugly truth about British policing in 2025. The police have chosen to afford different rights to different groups. Israelis—or Jews—have again been relegated to second-class status. Imagine if it involved mainly Muslim supporters—would the outcome have been the same?”

This is happening in our nation. Subtle, clever propaganda is at work. We’re told actions are “for their safety” — a tactic reminiscent of totalitarian control.

Before diving further, let’s ground ourselves in Scripture. Ephesians 5:11 says:

“Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds of darkness, but instead expose them.”

Every Christian has a responsibility to speak, to act, to stand. To not speak is to speak. To not act is to act. There is no neutrality. You are either for righteousness or for darkness!

The Church is called to be children of the light, shining in this dark hour. Alarmingly, many churches today are doing their best to do nothing.

The Church’s prophetic role is to hold those in power accountable. This is what Bonhoeffer emphasized. If the Church needs to raise her voice, it is NOW!

I witnessed people at a protest in Southampton, hugging me, crying, grateful to see Christians with the courage to stand for truth and defend the nation. Grown adults were moved by someone simply wearing a clerical collar.

Consider the treatment of Jewish people:

  • banned under the guise of “safety,”
  • denied access to events, while governments and institutions remain silent.
  • Last year, London’s largest Christmas market was told to rename itself a “Winter Market” to avoid offending anyone.
  • This is cultural erasure.

It’s also a spiritual war. Cultural Marxism, political correctness, woke ideology—they infiltrate churches and society alike.

Compassion has become a cult, replacing justice and righteousness.

Christians must resist being duped by misleading agendas like Black Lives Matter or pro-Palestinian narratives that, at their core, aim to delegitimize Jews.

Zechariah 12:3 reminds us of the End-times significance of hatred against Jews:

“…all who lift it [Jerusalem] will be severely injured, and all the nations of the earth will be gathered against it.”

We see a subtle global hatred for Jews, often hidden behind terms like “anti-Zionist.” Yet Zionism simply affirms Jews’ right to their homeland. To oppose that is to oppose them.

The Church must not stay silent.

Many denominations today, including state churches and evangelicals, have taken pro-Palestinian stances. Some even forbid praying for Israel.

Those who remain quiet or complicit are aiding a cultural agenda reminiscent of Nazi Germany.

Matthew 5:13-16 teaches:

“You are the salt of the earth… You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden… Let your light shine before men…”

Churches have lost their saltiness. Many fear offending or being labeled extremist, prioritizing reputation over obedience. Yet Jesus called us to take up our cross daily, to live sacrificially, and to let our light shine.

History shows that Hitler promised the Church safety if it stayed out of politics. Today, Christians are told the same. But Scripture calls us to influence the world for God’s Kingdom — to be yeast in the dough, salt in the wounds, light in the darkness.

Who do we serve? The Jewishness of Jesus is suppressed in our churches. He is not a “nice white hippie”; He is the Jewish Messiah, and He will reign from Israel. Hatred of Israel or Jews is incompatible with serving Christ.

Acts 5:29:

“We must obey God rather than man.”

Romans 13 teaches submission to authority — but only when it aligns with God’s will. When governments contradict Scripture, Christians must stand for God, not man. [RB note verse 4 – governments are to act against – NOT promote and practice – evil.]

Christianity today faces persecution—sometimes subtle, sometimes overt. Those who speak truth are labeled fascists, Nazis, or racist. Yet those truly operating in that spirit are often anti-Semitic, woke, or culturally Marxist—mirroring the Church of the Third Reich.

Faith without action is dead. Silence in the face of evil is complicity. Dietrich Bonhoeffer warned:

“Silence in the face of evil is itself evil. God will not hold us guiltless.”

This is the defining hour: light or darkness, truth or compromise. The Church must stand, proclaim righteousness, and resist the rise of the Fourth Reich in our time.

Amen.

Heretical Church of England expelled from global Anglicans

Posted on by

REPRISE:

In 2017 Revd William Smith and I asked Rebels? In Church? Just Who’s Rebelling? and my recent End-Times Briefing 23 was the latest on apostasy within the Church of England.

Now at last, this weekend saw GAFCON’s announcement severing communion with heretical Canterbury: a cutting off, separation and coming out of false teaching.

‘The Gafcon movement of orthodox Anglicans is forging its own path away from the leadership of the Archbishop of Canterbury with the launch of the Global Anglican Communion.

It will be distinct from the worldwide Anglican Communion that is under the spiritual leadership of the Archbishop of Canterbury and which recognises other Institutes of Communion like the Lambeth Conference, the Anglican Consultative Council (ACC), and the Primates’ Meeting of senior archbishops.

Unveiling its plans on Thursday, Gafcon said its intention was to “reorder” the Anglican Communion with only the Bible as its foundation. It will not recognise the Archbishop of Canterbury or other Institutes of Communion. 

“We cannot continue to have communion with those who advocate the revisionist agenda, which has abandoned the inerrant word of God as the final authority and overturned Resolution I.10, of the 1998 Lambeth Conference,” said the Most Rev Dr Laurent Mbanda, Chairman of the Gafcon Primates’ Council, and Primate of Rwanda. 

“Therefore, Gafcon has re-ordered the Anglican Communion by restoring its original structure as a fellowship of autonomous provinces bound together by the Formularies of the Reformation, as reflected at the first Lambeth Conference in 1867, and we are now the Global Anglican Communion...’  (continue emphases mine).

Their Communique begins (underscoring added, emboldening by Gafcon,):

‘To our dear Anglican brothers and sisters in Christ. Grace and peace to you in the name of our risen Lord Jesus Christ, on the Commemoration of the martyrdom of Hugh Latimer and Nicholas Ridley.

The first Global Anglican Future Conference (GAFCON) gathered in 2008 in Jerusalem to prayerfully respond to the abandonment of the Scriptures by some of the most senior leaders of the Anglican Communion, and to seek their repentance.

In the absence of such repentance, we have been prayerfully advancing towards a future for faithful Anglicans, where the Bible is restored to the heart of the Communion.

Today, that future has arrived.

Our Gafcon Primates gathered this hour to fulfil our mandate to reform the Anglican Communion, as expressed in the Jerusalem Statement of 2008….’ (continue reading)

End-times Briefing 24: Bible prophecy on Catholic apostasy

Posted on by
Reply

Briefing 23 cites 2Thessalonians 2.3 and 1Timothy 4.1 on the prophesied falling away from faith and foundational Christian tenets, and reports on heretical teaching within the Anglican communion and the new Archbishop of Canterbury’s very dubious stance.

Now, we consider the apostasy within the Roman Catholic church as reported by the former Papal Legate to the United States, Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano, whom the late Argentinian pope excommunicated for strongly denouncing his heresy.

This blog and The Gateway Pundit have frequently featured his excellent articles, as here and here respectively; and here’s the latter’s latest on the new American pope.

MUST READ… Archbishop Viganò: Vatican’s Globalist Alliance — Bergoglio and Prevost Push “Replacement Migration” to Erase Western Christian Civilization

The Archbishop opens his guest post as follows::

‘Jorge Bergoglio’s monomaniacal obsession with indiscriminate immigration and miscegenation finds a zealous proponent in Robert Prevost.

The handover did not represent any radical change, either doctrinally or morally, or politically or socially. The conciliar-synodal Church is and remains the “Ancilla Novi Ordinis”, the courtesan of the globalist elite.

We know well that the migratory phenomenon is not spontaneous: it is not caused by famine, war, or religious persecution.

Instead, it was desired and planned as a means of destabilizing Western nations, and illegal immigration is used as an instrument of social subversion. This is stated in a United Nations document of March 21, 2000, entitled “Replacement Migration.” (continue reading his stern rebukes)

In TGP’s coverage we find superb White House Press Secretary, a Christian, rebuking this pope:

Karoline Leavitt Fires Back After Pope Leo XIV’s Thinly Veiled Swipe at Trump on Immigration

Moreover, a couple of days later on 11th October the Archbishop summarises in his ‘X files’ (!) seven decades of what he ardently regards is heresy within the Roman Church:

He writes,

‘Sixty-three years ago, on this day, the Second Vatican Ecumenical Council was solemnly opened, the first “council” of the church that takes its name from it – the “conciliar church” in fact.

– It was a “council” because it sought to “reconcile” God and the world, Christ and Belial, truth and falsehood, good and evil.

– It was “ecumenical” because it sought to legitimize interreligious dialogue, which the Roman Catholic Church had solemnly condemned.

– It called itself “second” to make people believe that it was in continuity with the perennial Catholic Magisterium, so that it could adulterate it by usurping the Authority of the Church and of the Roman Pontiff.

– It laid the pseudo-doctrinal foundations of today’s “synodal church,” which aims to subvert the hierarchical constitution of the Church and the Papacy.

Those who consciously adhere to this “council” are responsible for the demolition of the Catholic Church and ratify the conciliar and synodal coup with their complicity.’

This is ‘by-the-by’ for those adhering to the New Testament concept of the priesthood of all believers under the oversight of Biblically qualified leadership.

End-times Briefing 23: Bible prophecy on Anglican apostasy

Posted on by
1

About 1975 years ago in writing to the early church in Thessalonica, Apostle Paul draws his letter to a close by referring to ‘the Day of the Lord’ and in a follow-up he goes into further detail about Jesus’ expected return.

The second chapter of his second letter refers to a particularly startling indicator of the wider Church’s failure in the faith and implicit lack of holiness and obedience to Jesus, as expanded upon in the Amplified Bible, wherein the third verse reads:

‘Let no one deceive or beguile you in any way, for that day will not come except the [a]apostasy comes first [unless the predicted great [b]falling away of those who have professed to be Christians has come], and the man of lawlessness (sin) is revealed, who is the son of doom (of perdition),…’
[Note a,b – A possible rendering of the Greek ‘apostasia’ is “departure [of the church”].

Paul returns to that perplexing topic about 10-15 years later and prophesies in his first letter to Timothy (chapter 4)

‘But the [Holy] Spirit distinctly and expressly declares that in latter times some will turn away from the faith, giving attention to deluding and seducing spirits and doctrines that demons teach, 2 Through the hypocrisy and pretensions of liars whose consciences are seared (cauterized)…’

Other than citing holy writ and the essential principles of spiritual headship and thus accountability, especially vital in deliverance ministry, this blog has covered this matter from a newsworthy angle under #Apostasy tag. So the following items are offered for my readers’ consideration:

Revd Brett’s timeline > https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100069715806030

Here is fellow watcher John Barber’s even-handed analysis of the ‘pros and cons’:

The CofE has a new archbishop

A few extracts:

‘Perhaps, one of the most significant things (upon reflection, and not surprisingly) coming out of this announcement, in terms of how different Christians, especially those in leadership positions, reacted, is that in the main those in the negative camp seemed to be in agreement with many of the views that I have long been posting on my Facebook page and blogs concerning some of the important, significant things happening in the UK and beyond, and those, in the main, in the positive camp taking an opposite view. It confirmed to me that not only is the nation divided but so is the church.’

‘Obviously, not being an Anglican and coming from a very Low Church camp, I am not going to agree with all that Father Calvin said, but I agree with much of it. While I agree that leadership in churches, especially when it comes to exercising authority over men, should be male, the only priesthood I recognize is that of all believers.

Not mentioned but something what really sealed it for me, in coming to a view, was reading a post by one of my detracting Facebook friends including a video clip of Sarah Mullally’s telling us back in the days of the Covid scamdemic that it was our Christian duty to take the jab (see here). Another powerful video highlighting the concerns of those who think a wrong choice was made with this appointment making several damming indictments, including her pro-choice stance on the matter of abortion and her supporting or allowing LBGTQ+ ideology to prevail, including the brainwashing of our children over transgenderism (see here).’

GOD-INCIDENCE

Whilst writing I’m called to join my wife watching the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem’s celebration of the Feast of Tabernacles with David Parsons speaking on the Lord’s calling all nations towards Jerusalem and thereby encouraging the Jews to look forward to their Messiah Jesus’s return. This was broadcast yesterday morning

The main scriptures David cites are Zechariah but I note his emphasis upon the ‘NOW’ of prophecies and that this was only hours before the most welcome announcement of a cease-fire in Gaza.

SO Isaiah 66’s reference to the ‘last days’ and Jerusalem are most apposite:

SELAH!

Trump: a gavel in the hand of a righteous judge… – Veronika West

Posted on by

After spending time on domestic matters I’m reminded of a word Veronika brought over the weekend as I believe it would be a suitable lead-in to what’s been on my mind about the ‘Equational of National Breakdown’ and yesterday’s military meeting in Quantico. So let’s check the word as published by HKP…

…THEN I SEE THE DECIDER > timing of my visit 17:22!!!  (Again, ‘Q’ and my birthday!)

TRUMP – A GAVEL IN THE HAND OF A RIGHTEOUS JUDGE

Ha! I woke to these Words, “Watch and Pray — for Trump is the Gavel of Justice in God’s Righteous Right Hand!”

In the early hours (Fri 26 Sep), I woke up to those Words, and immediately I was taken into an open Vision, wherein I saw the Right Hand of God reach down and lift up President Donald J. Trump!

As He raised the man, Trump was transformed into a Judge’s Gavel in the Hand of the Mighty Judge of Heaven.

Then the Vision shifted and I saw the Scales of Justice begin to sway violently, moving back and forth with great power as I saw a fierce Battle was unfolding in the Courts of Heaven.

The movement of the Scales caused a great shaking to erupt in the earth realm. Nations began to tremble and shift as the Scales of Truth and Justice moved in the Courts.

As I continued to watch, I saw that The Books of The Nations were opened before the Judge, when suddenly I heard, “My Ecclesia must arise and legislate in The Courts of Heaven in the Authority of The Key of The House of David…

For what is bound in Heaven is bound on earth — and what is loosed in heaven will be loosed on earth!” (Matthew 18:18)

Then I heard The Spirit of The LORD say, “Watch! For I have weighed The Nations on the Scales, and found them wanting!

Watch what will take place in this Fall Season, for it is a time of Great Transition and Rapid Change, coming upon The Nations in the Valley of Decision!

Watch, as one is raised up and one is suddenly brought down!” says The LORD.

”Watch, as My Gavel strikes the block, not by the Power nor by the Wisdom of mere men, but by My Spirit of Truth and Justice — by My Righteous Decrees — through the mouths of My Righteous Remnant in this hour!

Watch, as I expose what is hidden and uncover what has been done in darkness!

Watch, as I shake, shake, shake those who thought they were “The Untouchables!”

Watch, as I shake, shake, shake the Halls of Power and bring Nations to their knees.

For I tell you, stiff-necked Nations and their leaders shall see the Gavel of My Justice come down!

Again I say, Watch and Pray! For this is the Hour of War unto Divine Restore; the hour for My Governing Ecclesia to Rise, Rule, and Reign in Righteousness and Truth!

Listen! For My Justice will thunder, and My Mercy will follow after it!”

Blessings to you all.

The Father has delivered and drawn us to Himself out of the control and dominion of darkness and has transferred us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in Whom we have our redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins. [St Paul’s letter to the Colossians 1:13-14, Amplified Bible.]

To continue the next part of my testimony upon my 36th spiritual birthday:

As well as checking out Christians’ claims of hearing God direct and getting astounding personal evidence for that, I wanted to know lots more not only about Him, but also and especially to follow-up on the personally revelatory scriptures about false teachers.

In my great wariness of religious folk I’d assumed none would be able to comprehend my story because they’d be ignorant about those things. Doubtless, none would have been through my kind of bad, meditative ‘trips’ – or so I thought!

But direct help was again at hand from the Bible’s Author…Yet first, there’s one little-suspected aspect of His character that amazingly revealed a very personal thought and thus confirmed He knows all about me. Here’s what had happened many years earlier.: Continue reading →

A Nation Without God – Neil Mackereth

Posted on by

A NATION WITHOUT GOD

“From this time many of His disciples turned back and no longer followed Him” (John 6:66 – significant chapter and verse number; co-incidence or God-incidence?)

A NATION DIVIDED

As a nation, we have turned our back on the Lord God Almighty and forsaken Him: the dire consequences of our actions are upon us.

A clear and distressing separation is taking place in our nation. The divides of the past: class distinctions, haves and have nots, north and south, etc., are fading into insignificance when compared with the growing chasm that exists between left-wing and right-wing opinions.

Jesus said: “Every kingdom divided against itself will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not stand” (Matthew 12:25). Our country has all the hallmarks of a deeply divided nation on the brink of civil war.

THE CHURCH DIVIDED

Many “Christians” are no longer following the Word of God and have aligned themselves with causes that they have neither researched nor understood.

They continue to espouse their belief in God, but have lost sight of Jesus.

Others believe the church has replaced Israel in God’s favour and the Jews are, therefore, no longer significant in God’s redemptive plan for mankind.

To my mind, the whole of scripture relates to the significance of the descendants of Abraham and his offspring through Isaac (if not, how can the 144,000 Jews sealed by God in Revelation 7, and seen standing with Jesus on Mt Zion in Revelation 14, be explained?).

Are we standing with Jesus as the world turns against Him and His brethren, God’s chosen people Israel? Or are we taking the much easier position of siding with the world? The latter option is pragmatic, comfortable, and may well, in the short term, shield people from hatred and abuse.

I tell you the truth: Satan is desperately endeavouring to thwart God’s plans for mankind, because he believes that if he succeeds, he will prove God wrong and save himself from eternal damnation in the lake of burning sulphur (Revelation 20:10). If we take the easy option for short term gain, we too will be on course for eternal damnation.

FAITH

We are now being tested on whether the life of Jesus in us is the dominating influence in our being, or whether self-interest takes pride of place. Are we loyal and fully committed to honouring Jesus in all that we do and say?

In 2 Corinthians 11:16-33 Paul gives a comprehensive description of the abuse, persecution, pain and suffering that may ensue, for those who fully commit to following Jesus. Life for devoted Christians is already appallingly difficult in many parts of the world, and it is going to get much harder here.

It is prophesied that a time of great tribulation is coming. How will we react when facing the possibility of unmitigated suffering, even unto death? Jesus says we should never be afraid, but rather we should rest in perfect confidence in Him. I find that a huge challenge; panic is often my first reaction to a crisis. I reason that God must be asleep in the boat and that He cannot have recognised that we are about to be engulfed by the storm (Matthew 8:24,25).

Nevertheless, I know that Jesus expects His followers to be the steadfast and reliable ones in any calamity. It is essential to keep our focus on Jesus in every circumstance, and to remember that it is our place in eternity that is at stake. Sudden unexpected disasters always reveal on what or on whom we rely. Now more than ever, it is essential that we train our minds so that when catastrophe strikes, we immediately turn to Jesus for help.

CONCLUSION

A time of great tribulation draws near – the signs of division in the church, in our nation and in the world are very evident. We are on the brink of a massive upheaval. Even so, we are to look beyond the imminent chaos and turmoil to the glorious return of our saviour Jesus Christ, King of kings and Lord of lords.

What is a truly amazing (supernatural) is that, in Bible prophecy, God has told us exactly what to expect. The events we are witnessing are no surprise to Him!

In what little time we have, it is imperative that we worship God, study the Word and seek to be blameless in His sight. Pray for wisdom and discernment, and to be a tower of strength and encouragement to others.

Jesus will return: Victory is assured: Hallelujah!

Blessings and Curses – Jerusalem Addendum

Eagle-eyed by John Mark Long: courtesy http://www.propheticartists.com

BLESSINGS & CURSES – ADDENDUM ON JERUSALEM

Continuing on from my dear friend Neil Mackereth’s Blessings and Curses, I offer further historical information that’s of a personal nature from before the Lord stunned me with that foretaste of what it will be like when He returns.

I received Neil’s first draft on 4th Sept and responded: “Just read hardcopy over lunch and laughed as it’s 2nd God-incidence today. A few days ago I drafted brief comments to Saturday Men’s Breakfast Bible group on Jerusalem’s significance but other matters meant I hadn’t sent it. So, yours is the ‘SEND’ confirmation.”

First, I suggest readers revisit Neil’s historical section ‘A British Perspective’ covering 1917 of his previous in order to gain the fuller sequence of events, as in my following remarks to SM’s W/App discussion and augmented herein:

GOD-INCIDENTAL BIBLE STUDY

“Guys, for info I offer two points re last SM on Hebrews 7 and which I drafted days ago but got a 2nd ‘God-incidence’ today from fellow writer on same topic; so “Go!”…

1st > Genesis 14:18 is first mention, albeit implicit, of Jerusalem circa 4,000 years ago and I was impressed with its increasing significance throughout the Bible, for not only Jews but also all nations: eg Zechariah 12 & 14 and Jesus’ return.

ALSO 40 years ago the Lord shook me, as a New Ager, with ‘coincidental’ exposure to its importance when flicking through this book I’d been given, at the time I was watching a tv documentary.

The following photo of the Al-Aqsa mosque and listing from Daniel and Revelation caught my attention AND simultaneously the documentary showed elite Iranian and Iraqi troops rehearsing the storming and liberation of the Holy City, even though it was during the Iran-Iraq war!!

2nd > cross-reference to Gen 14:18 ‘God Most High’ (Elyon).

My Bible notes Elyon is ‘derived from ‘alah’ meaning ‘to ascend’. Note it’s muslim name for God and that it connects into Jerusalem’s liberation from the Ottoman empire in 1917 by General Allenby or ‘Alla en nabi’ = prophet of God.

In The Invisible Hand a Turkish saying is recounted about that definition which explains why our troops captured the city without any violence, as below:”

NB: God-incidental relevance of Isaiah 31.5, 33.20 and 40:1-2 to prepared Anglican prayers for the morning and evening on the day of Jerusalem’s deliverance:

Blessings and Curses re Britain and Israel – Neil Mackereth

Posted on by
2

Written early this month we hit a few glitches, yet Neil is timely in view of Keir Starmer’s unwise appeasement of barbarians in recognising a Palestinian state (covered to a quick extent with links on this blog’s Telegram, from this item.) Note Neil’s perspective is not only from scripture but also that of a retired brigadier; also that emphases are mine:

BLESSINGS  AND  CURSES

INTRODUCTION

Joel 3:1-3 “In those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat.
There I will put them on trial for what they did to my inheritance, my people Israel, because they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land.”

The timing of this “trial” means it must be the same event, referred to as the “Sheep and Goats” judgement by Jesus, in Matthew 25:31-46.

Furthermore, it endorses the conclusion that when Jesus talks about “the least of these brothers and sisters of mine” He must mean His Jewish “brothers and sisters” (“brethren” in some translations).

This is a clear example of the differing outcomes for those who bless Israel and for those who curse Israel. As Genesis 12:1-3 states:

“The LORD had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”

From Joel’s prophecy, we see that dividing up God’s land is, in effect, cursing Israel.

A BRITISH PERSPECTIVE – Are we a SHEEP or a GOAT Nation?

Before answering that question, I want to look at a series of events that occurred
towards the end of World War 1, and which I am certain reveal the consequences of
blessing Israel: the dates are significant, as is the heart motive in the decisions made.

In June 1917, General Allenby, a devout Bible believing Christian, was appointed
commander of the Egyptian Expeditionary Force (EEF – a British Army group which
included multi-national allied forces). The EEF had been repelled in attempts to take
Gaza (which was held by German and Ottoman Empire forces) in March and April 1917.

On or about Tuesday 30 October 1917, the cabinet of our predominantly Christian
Government agreed the proposal to support the establishment of a national home for
the Jewish people. [RB; was this decision significant in turning the tide militarily, as well as spiritually?]

On 2 November 1917, the British Foreign Secretary, Arthur Balfour, issued the “Balfour Declaration”; a letter declaring British Government support for the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people in Palestine.

On 2 November the third battle of Gaza began.

On 7 November the victorious EEF took over the town of Gaza.

On 11 December 1917 General Allenby entered Jerusalem on foot and took over the city, without a shot being fired. In light of the successes and rapid advance of the EEF, the German and Ottoman forces had decided not to defend the City, but rather to withdraw into the Judean hills.

[RB: Gen Allenby entered on foot because he wouldn’t ride a horse over ground his Lord had walked upon. A few more details will appear in the Addendum.]

In September 1918, after a delay caused by the need to divert men from the EEF to
reinforce the Western Front during the German Spring Offensive, the EEF took Megiddo, then Damascus and Aleppo.

On 30 October 1918 the Ottoman Empire agreed a peace treaty with the Allies.
Obviously, a huge amount of detail is excluded. However, I am convinced that this series of events clearly illustrates that the blessing of Israel resulted in a reciprocal blessing.

At that time, we were definitely a Sheep Nation!

DIVIDING UP MY LAND

Tragically, Great Britain and the League of Nations reneged on their promises of support. In the early 1920s, some 72% of the land, originally earmarked as the intended homeland for the Jewish people, had been given to other interested parties.

Sadly, the British Government was heavily involved in dividing up the land and, after
World War 2, did everything it could, short of warfare, to prevent the establishment of
a Jewish Nation.

Nevertheless, miraculously, and against all the odds, Israel became (declared itself) a
Nation on 5 May 1948, albeit only in a fraction of the land area destined in Numbers 34,
which God gave, as an everlasting covenant, to His chosen people, Abraham and his descendants through Isaac. The nationhood status of Israel was immediately recognised by the USA.

CONCLUSION

So, Israel is a Nation and, since 1948 has survived, and continues to survive, wars and
appalling attacks. Obviously, the Israel economy is under considerable strain.

Nevertheless, its military successes and economic resilience are truly miraculous.

Meanwhile, Great Britain has lost an empire and been in a slow decline which, in recent
