Jesus Christ’s identity hidden in the Bible’s opening sentence

Posted on by

We continue the previous post’s conclusion drawn from Jonathan Hill’s thesis with this startling discovery:

ALPHA-OMEGA HIDDEN WITHIN GENESIS 1:1 (AS ALEPH-TAV)

In Appendix I (pages 202-203) on the meaning of number 37 and its palindromic partner 73, Jonathan says both form the numerical value for the fundamental Hebrew word ‘wisdom’. He tells how this pair play a role in a multiplication, the result being the precise number of the Hebrew for the creation verse of Genesis 1:1. He goes on to relate this to 666 and a diagrammatic representation, which he interprets as meaning:

‘This transformation represents the dispensational truth that at the second coming of Christ, the dominant spiritual hierarchy of the world changes from 666, the number of the ‘beast’, to 12 – the governmental number of Israel. All this information including this powerful intervention of God is elegantly and visually encoded in the first verse of the Bible.’

This claim continues by divulging this astounding mystery:

Furthermore, this relates to Jesus’ Crucifixion Described Within the Holy Name of God, published on Good Friday, to which my American reader Tim Shey submitted this most instructive video:

REVELATION 1:8, 11 – 21:6 – 22:13

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” (NKJV, BibleGateway.com)

A post-Resurrection miracle as a ‘mystery’ now revealed – part 2

[First published 2018]

His disciples came to Jesus and said, “Why do You speak to them in parables?” and He replied, “Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. For whoever has, to him (and her) more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. Therefore, I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand…” (Matthew 13:10-13 NKJV)

Definition: ‘Mystery’, Greek musterion (moos-tay-ree-on; Strongs #3466). From mueo, “to initiate into the mysteries”, hence a secret known only to the initiated, something hidden requiring special revelation. In the NT the word denotes something that people could never know by their own understanding and that demands a revelation from God. The secret thoughts, plans and dispensations of God remain hidden from unregenerate mankind, but are revealed to all believers. In non-biblical Greek musterion is knowledge withheld, concealed or silenced. In biblical Greek it is truth revealed (Col 1:26). NT musterion focuses upon Christ’s sinless life, atoning death, powerful resurrection and dynamic ascension.’ [New Spirit-Filled Study Bible]

Prophecy: “2018: I will impart to My Prophets the ability to see clearly My Numbers…” (delivered by Leisa Ebere, read in full here).

The above, ancient meaning of ‘mystery’ is rarely understood and appreciated, even by those solidly grounded in scripture. As told in my testimony, my pre-Christian life got immersed in that esoteric knowledge, and so I’m experienced in this matter and can attest that the difference between that discipline and holy revelations from the Almighty is like the contrast between His Light and the devil’s darkness.

Not long after Father God brought Jesus the Messiah back from the dead by His Spirit, the One who’s the radiance of His glory went once again in search of His ex-fisherman friends. Of the two sets of brothers who’d been partners in the fishing trade on the Sea of Galilee before deserting their nets to follow a peripatetic teacher, their boss had an exceptionally severe crisis of self-confidence.

GONE FISHING!

So this ‘son of Jonah’, named Simon, decided to return to the simple life of sitting in a boat with buddies and dragging a net in the hope of getting a catch – but it proved to be an exercise in futility!

A few years earlier on that inland sea, the four fishing partners encountered and had been ‘called’ by The One to follow Him. Jesus amazed the crowds there with His teaching and had asked Simon if He could address them from his moored boat. Jesus knew the men had worked hard all night without having caught anything because, when He’d finished speaking, He told Simon to sail into deep water and lower his nets despite the fruitless night – Simon was overwhelmed by the result!  They’d got such a large number of fish that another boat was called for – then both began to sink with their massive weight!!

So Simon changed his tune. Upon hearing Jesus’ instruction he’d objected because of the poor night, yet respectfully referred to Him as “Master” – but in amazement at the fresh catch breaking nets and sinking boats, Simon addressed Him with the superior term of “Lord”; thus suggesting he was beginning to understand the status of this astonishing teacher. In the account by one of those partners, John, they’d previously met Jesus immediately after His baptism in the river Jordan and Andrew had brought his brother Simon to see Jesus, who then spoke of his identity and implicit destiny, “You are Simon son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas,” (which is translated ‘A Stone’, Petros/Peter: John 1:42).

After that huge catch of unspecified quantity, Jesus called Simon into his destiny: “Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men!”  That is, a fisher of men. When they’d landed their boats the four foresook all and followed Him (Luke 5:10-11). Continue reading →

HE IS RISEN! – Time and Quantum effects in Jesus’ Resurrection

First published in the early years of this blog and repeated annually:

In preparation for the Holy-days’ weekend Nina creates a tableau for contemplating Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection. She’s inspired about what items to collect and arrange, usually including a rock with a central hole eroded by the sea and which we found on a beach. It serves as both the ‘skull’ and garden tomb of Golgotha. For example, the above display has a scarf as a ‘river of life’ flowing out of the empty cave/tomb below the cross. (In 2012 it gave an insight that I’ll share below.)

Maundy Thursday is celebrated as the night when Jesus and the lead-disciples ate an early Passover Seder, or meal (see video explanation). Following the meal, one disciple betrayed Him by leading Temple guards to capture Him at night for trial by a ‘kangaroo’ court of Jewish leaders.  It was a foregone conclusion that they’d demand authorisation of His death from Pontius Pilate, the Roman Prefect, or governor, of Judea.

If you’re unfamiliar with this true story and how it led to Jesus’ gruesome torture, death and burial followed by his amazing bodily resurrection and appearance to His disciples, read doctor Luke’s investigative account and the personal account of Jesus’ closest disciple John. (Later, a Jewish leader violently opposed to them but who encountered Jesus en-route to Damascus would write He was seen simultaneously by over 500 – read 1 Corinthians 15:6)

Jesus’ Crucifixion described within the Holy Name of God

Posted on by
2

First published on this blog in April 2017 and now continuing yesterday’s Maundy Thursday Musing:

According to Steve Maltz, author of God’s Signature, the only time the sacred, personal Name of God was spoken by the ancient Israelites was during worship in the Temple in Jerusalem, and especially on the Day of Atonement when the High Priest pronounced it ten times.

The Talmud has many warnings about using the most holy Name – it is also regarded as having special powers of healing.  Apparently knowledge of its pronunciation was lost after the fall of the Temple in AD70 prophesied by Jesus Christ.

The knock-on effect of that event, together with the Roman Church’s withdrawal in the third Century of financial support for churches in the Holy Land founded by Jesus’ own ‘kith and kin’ (‘desponyni’), was the great loss of a full understanding of the Church’s Hebraic roots. Hence the confusion and doctrinal disagreements over Jesus’ claim, “I am in the Father and the Father is in me” (John 14:10).

Digging deeper we encounter an astonishing revelation of that double-identity!

From translations of Hebrew, the post-Shakespeare English-speaking world referred to God’s Name as ‘Jehovah’ or ‘LORD’ (letter ‘J’ was then starting to replace ‘i’). However, Jews preferred well-known descriptive titles such as ‘Elohim’ – God, in all the fullness of His attributes; ‘El Shaddai’ – Almighty; ‘El Sabaoth’ – Lord of heavenly hosts; or Adonai’ – Lord, and more often than not the reverent term ‘Ha Shem’ (The Name) sufficed.

Scribes, or sopher, needed to take special care in praying before writing the holy name, which must be done without interruption. Were a mistake made, it must not be corrected but the whole page discarded and the page restarted. Numbering had to be carefully handled too because Hebrew characters represented both letters and numbers. So the logical way of writing 15 is to add a yod (ie 10) to a hey (ie 5) and likewise for 16 (a yod to a vav). But this never happened because, as part of the sacred name, they could accidentally be read as this name. The Holy Name is shown below, but read from right to left:

Ha Shem

“Yod-Hey-Vav-Hay” first appears in Genesis 2:4 statement that ‘The Book of Beginnings’ is the account of, “When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens”.

This Name was first revealed when Moses encountered God in the burning bush after he’d asked Him whom should he tell the Israelites had sent him to get them out of their slavery in Egypt.

God replied, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you’. ” (Exodus 3:14 NKJV)
Steve writes, “Interestingly and contrary to popular belief, the Hebrew word used in this passage…is not YHVY (he shows Hebrew characters). So, what’s going on here? Is it His name or isn’t it? In this Exodus passage, the word used for His name is “Aleph-Hey-Yod-Hey”.

“This takes the meaning of “I will be”…(which) shares a similar three-consonant root with YHVY in Hey-Vav-Hey and Hey-Yod-Hey…and as they’re related are both ways of describing God”.  Hence my liking of describing God as “Always” and “Now”, the latter being used by Charlie Shamp too.

HOLY FATHER-SON UNION REVEALED & THE CRUCIFIXION FORETOLD

As in those preceding links, literary Hebrew developed out of pictographic forms that represent gestures and their meanings. We logically surmise both original visual and later written forms were known to and, therefore, used by the Lord in communicating with Abraham and his descendants through Issac and Jacob, and used by Moses and his scribes in compiling the first five books of the Bible.

Comparing the literary and pictorial forms of the name Moses heard and recorded as being from the Lord, we have this graphic (credit Heart To Heart):

Hebrew is read right to left, ie ‘hand-look-nail-look’, but if we read as normal left to right we find not only the Name of God describing who He is, the fullness of His character and abilities, but also its exceptional prophetic nature in it foretelling the pivotal point of His action plan for humanity: the crucifixion of His Son Jesus Christ!

BEHOLD – A NAIL – BEHOLD – A HAND 

AND THIS ‘WORD’ SHOWS TWO PERSONS!

Could this indicate that Christ was hidden in the Father when Moses encountered them at the burning bush but manifested as ‘The Angel of the Lord’ or pre-incarnate Christ ? It’s worth reading Exodus 3 carefully again and note Who is speaking to Moses…

Moreover, the pictographs graphically portray God as ‘hands up’ in connection with a nail. Putting all this together into one picture we get a typical image of Jesus on the Cross at Calvary, where long nails or spikes driven through Jesus’ wrists damage the median nerves thus making His hands bend into the ‘claw position’ – just like letter Yod!!

Reminder: England’s patron saint slays the dragon!

Thank you Elaine for commenting as follows upon the Visions of 7-headed serpent posting on my Facebook.:

‘Richard did encourage me to share something of this after the post of Toni Arayomi (“This is not the end of the world; this is the distraction”) back around March 19th urging a renewed prayer push for this time – and there were 7 emerging points so now is probably the time to share this – given the reference to the dragon attacking and 7 heads.

‘The London Mint Office this year are promoting a new collector’s gold coin. I received their posting on 19th March, two days after the feast of St Patrick, another of the patron saints of the British Isles and can it be a coincidence that Veronika is from Northern Ireland ?

‘The coin is a gold quarter sovereign and it shows the battle of St George – patron saint of England – going against the fire of the dragon. The coin is called the dragon attacks. It was designed by the descendant of the artist who originally designed the sovereign coins for George III so there is a passing on and honouring of legacy here…and the coin has the year 2020 on it, all significant in itself as we fight for our Christian heritage with a 20-20 vision. [RB posted at 20:20 hours]

‘First, it’s a good graphic of the battle currently raging and of England’s fight-back by the crusading Knight St George…

‘Then the rich Christian symbolism and insights that tumble out of it. Here’s a start as you may see more:-

1. Place of issue = Gibraltar with its famous Rock and our Rock of Christ nb Matthew 16 v 16 – 20 with the Lord’s promise that the gates of Hell cannot prevail against it ( gates are to keep people in or out…) What a spur to press forward!

2. Coin is gold = our faith like gold is tested and refined 1 Peter 1 v 7 Gold always indicates the highest standard in any contest

3. The raising of the shield of faith = the defensive armour of Ephesians 6 especially in protecting against the fiery darts of the enemy (fear of infection & fear of lack) – isn’t this the warfare we’re now called to engage in?

4. The cross etched onto the shield = the prevailing blood of Jesus.
Lift high the Cross – the hymn proclaims – till all the world adore His sacred Name…..

5. Not a trace of defeat or concern in the resolution shown by St George. He’s still thrusting forward and so must we. He’s sure of victory. May we be reassured that in Christ victory is ours.

6. Dei – Gra is short for the Latin ‘Dei Gratia’ meaning’ By the Grace of God’ – our covering! – And also the prize for the nation.

7. Both the Kings responsible, – Henry III appointed George our patron saint and George III commissioned the original depiction of St George on the gold sovereigns – are the third of their name in kingly succession. Such threes point to the Father, Son & Spirit coming together….

‘Lastly St George’s Feast Day falls on 23rd April…..shared with both Shakespeare and
Prince Louis for their birthdays…would I be pushing it to expect victory by/on Saint George’s Day this year??

‘I’m now very excited that we have an invitation to press on in to Victory in readiness for the coming harvest of souls…..this battle will be won through prayer, praise and proclamation of who God is, what He has done and the life He brings. Hallelujah. Amen

In that spirit of prevailing, travailing prayer let us continue in whole-hearted prayer especially in this month of April.’

The Cross at Ffald-y-Brenin, ‘miraculously’ provided and located as directed by the Lord.

[First published 2016]

Reflections upon the events of Jesus’ betrayal and execution whilst we were on a Quiet Day’s ‘Appointment in Jerusalem’, added to my ongoing meditation upon His personal prayer made, not in the garden of Gethsemane, but earlier in the upper room at the close of their Passover meal (John 17). That ‘celebratory remembrance’ proved to be more than a ground-breaking event. It was truly a heaven-breaking-in pivotal time in human history in which Jesus offered up Himself as the Paschal Lamb, not only for His first disciples but also for everyone who would ever believe in Him – eg. you and me! AND enable everyone to come into the full freedom of salvation from their sins and satan’s consequential authority over their lives – should they so choose. Continue reading →

Visions of 7-headed serpent attack upon the PM – ‘Isaac’ era coming to birth in UK

Posted on by
6

Upon preparing the following material from Veronika I recall Revelation 12, the opening verses foretell a great sign appearing in the heavens that came to pass three years ago (as blogged here – another number ‘22‘):

3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads. 4 His tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born. 5 She bore a male Child who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her Child was caught up to God and His throne. [‘The Woman, the Child, the Dragon’ NKJV BibleGateway.com ]

Yesterday, 8th April, Veronika messaged me as follows: 

‘…the Lord quickened to me the word I gave about an ISSAC ERA BEING BIRTHED IN THE UK…I believe the following word is confirmation of what is unfolding right now in the realm of the Spirit with our Prime Minister in ICU. We must continue to war in the Spirit THE PROMISED ERA IS CROWNING…! (as told in) The Isaac Era Has Begun.

‘I was given a sober caution; the serpent spirit circles waiting for the birthing of Issac to take place… We must become one voice calling upon the power and authority of the Captain of Angels’ armies as this battle rages in the realm of the Spirit. As eagles we must be seeking step-by-step strategy moving forward as these are dangerous days concerning the birthright and destiny of our nation!’

See her warning in The 7-headed Serpent Spirit and Counterfeit Fire and Winds.

‘Someone just sent Jennifer LeClaire Video concerning BJ to me?! A prayer meeting was held yesterday and a man saw a 7-headed serpent spirit!! I found it a powerful confirmation:

[I haven’t yet run the full video, just opening minutes but noted the featured American prophet also quotes Rev 12, which I knew to use as the opening for this blog. Also, he visually discerned the severe attack is a demonic ‘hornet’ reaction against Brexit.]

ALSO this morning, again by virtue of 2 Corinthians 13:1 – ‘By the word of two or three witnesses every word shall be established’ – Rick Davies posted this today on Prophetic Releases for UK Revival group, and is republished with permission.:

7-HEADED SERPENT ATTACKED BORIS JOHNSON
 
But God

‘At roughly 12:30am, I was awake, and hearing to pray for PM Boris Johnson I began to pray in tongues, and I saw in the Spirit a snake rearing up to attack him. It looked something like the pictures of Nessie with its long body like Nessie’s neck and the head at the top. I heard to stop it. I came against this serpent, and commanded it to die and stop, and it did. I saw the snake fall.
 
‘Then I heard “7-headed serpent.” And as soon as I heard that, I saw a second snake body/head appear like the first. I dealt with it like the first, and saw it fall out of my sight, dead.
 
‘Then the third, fourth, fifth, sixth, and seventh snake heads in turn, and I dealt with them all the same until all 7 heads were killed.
 
‘I then saw a tail of this 7-headed serpent arise, and it was like the tail of a scorpion. I quickly cut it off with a sword. Then I drove the sword into the larger body of this beast to make sure the whole of it was dead, and it was.
 
‘And Boris was saved and protected against this attack.
 
‘Then at 3:30am, I was awake, and heard, “Boris is fine”, and I heard cheering and rejoicing of many people.
 
‘I continue to pray for PM Johnson in tongues, and in the understanding as Holy Spirit leads.
 
‘Concerning the 7-headed serpent I saw, I wondered about the significance, of it being 7-headed. usually the number 7 means completion. From what I am hearing and sensing, it represents the complete onslaught against Mr Johnson. The “strikes” against him came quickly one after the other, relentlessly. BUT GOD!

‘Our God has defeated the coronavirus in him, and has set him free from this attack of our enemy, and I declare this in Jesus’s name!

‘I also declare in Jesus’ name that Boris will come out of this a changed man, changed by the power and mercy and grace of our good Father God, and His Son Jesus of Nazareth! Amen!’
 
Rather than post this as soon as possible yesterday I wanted to wait and assess the accuracy of Rick’s claim for the actual timing of what is seen in the spiritual realm is not easily discerned. That is, what Rick heard about the PM’s condition doesn’t necessarily mean that was the state-of-play at that same time in hospital but, in my humble opinion as a reporter rather than the player-prayer, it was an acknowledgement of the result of prayers and prophesying the news of his recovery.  It will be most interesting to note whether or not there’s any relapse as the virus reactivates or mutates, as happens for many seriously suffering this contagion.

I delayed publication yesterday as Veronika’s PS to previous on a 21 days prayer cover was priority. So I was pleased to learn that evening that the PM is progressing well and been able to sit up in bed.

WE THANK AND PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ANSWERED PRAYERS

The Miracles Blog's avatarMiracles In The UK

It is with slight trepidation that I post a story about the influence of prayer on the recovery of a man in Peterborough from the coronavirus – it is understandable that people will have questions about how faith in God combines with a pandemic like the one we face right now, and I would be very glad to open a dialogue with anyone who wanted to explore such questions (email me, or comment below).

I believe in a God who heals – not all of the time, as the Bible tells us the kingdom of God has not fully come on earth yet (or why would Jesus tell us to pray “Your kingdom come”) – but even so, a God who heals frequently in response to prayer. These healings can be terminal cancer, a twisted ankle, and also coronavirus.

In the story here, David Francis had good reason to think…

IMPORTANT TO NOTE: THE NEXT 21 DAYS…777..!

‘One crucial thing to add to yesterday’s post re; Boris Johnson:

‘The Spirit of Revelation impressed heavily upon my heart yesterday that the next ‘21 DAYS’ ARE HIGHLY SIGNIFICANT FOR STRATEGIC PRAYER AND MANIFEST VICTORY, as per Daniel 10 the Spirit quickened to me that Daniel fasted for 21 days…!!

So as for Boris Johnson, I believe it’s imperative that we remain VIGILANT, ALERT AND WATCHFUL…WITH FERVENT PRAYER AND THANKSGIVING OVER THE NEXT 21 Days….interestingly yesterday was the 7th….I received the encounter yesterday…and so the next 21 days as of yesterday are vitally important to seeing TOTAL VICTORY OVER THE ENEMY….(777,…3 WEEKS)…!’

Angelic presence at No. 10 Downing Street, London – Veronika West

After listening whilst gardening to Chuck Pierce talking to Dutch Sheets about this year’s Passover being like the first; a significant turning point in global history…I was attentive to all his references regarding the pandemic and noted neither mentioned the most significant similarity: being preceded by plague and pestilence. Upon getting indoors I find Veronika’s posted this:

“AN ANGELIC MESSENGER OF THE LORD SENT TO No. 10”…!

While praying this morning for Prime Minister Boris Johnson I was caught up in a vision where I was standing in front of No.10 and an Angel of the Lord Appeared beside the Door of No.10 and I saw written upon his chest was the number ’10’ and suddenly I saw the numbers ‘1010’ come up before me and I heard these words, “THE THIEF COMES ONLY TO STEAL, KILL AND DESTROY; I HAVE COME THAT THEY MAY HAVE LIFE AND HAVE IT TO THE FULL”….John 10:10.

As I heard those words, I looked again at the Angel of the Lord and the Spirit of Revelation then quickened to me DANIEL 10, and immediately I recognised that the Angel was A MESSENGER OF THE LORD SENT TO INFORM US THAT A MIGHTY BATTLE IS RAGING IN REALM OF THE SPIRIT RIGHT NOW OVER THE NATION AND EVEN THAT OF BORIS JOHNSON.., BUT THAT WE ARE NOT TO BE AFRAID!  BUT FROM THE MOMENT OUR PRAYERS WERE HEARD, HEAVEN HAS MOVED ON OUR BEHALF…..(LET US CONTINUE PRAYING UNTIL THE VICTORY IS MADE FULLY MANIFEST)…,

…and as I watched the Angel of the Lord suddenly I saw him lift a sword up over the Door of No.10 and in the twinkling of an eye I saw the 10 Plagues of Egypt come up before me and the “10th” plague being when the FIRST BORN was killed and then I heard these words, “PUT THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB ON THE DOORPOST FOR THE SPIRIT OF DEATH WILL PASS OVER”…as I heard those words, I saw the Angel then lift up his sword again for a second time and a man appeared before the Door of No 10 and he knelt down before the Angel of the Lord and I watched as the Messenger of the Lord took his sword and ‘KNIGHTED THE MAN’ and suddenly the ‘LIGHTS OF NO 10 CAME ON IN THE BACKGROUND’…

and then I heard these words,

“FOR A PEOPLE WALKING IN DARKNESS WILL SEE A GREAT LIGHT, FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IN A LAND OF DEEP DARKNESS, A LIGHT WILL SHINE”

...on hearing those words, it as quickened to me ‘ISAIAH 9’…and then I watched as the Messenger Angel of the Lord departed and the man stood up and walked into the Door of No. 10…!

55…HOPE AND DOUBLE GRACE…!
Forgot to share; But As I was praying after the vision I saw the NUMBER 5…and then I saw TWO FIVES (55) and I heard the words “HOPE AND DOUBLE GRACE”…it was immediately quickened to me…Romans 5:5 that says, “And HOPE does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us”..,then I heard “WITH SHOUTS OF GRACE, GRACE TO IT”…!

“What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain. Then he will bring forth the capstone accompanied by shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”

As I prayed concerning these two verses which I felt were significant for both BJ and our Nation, the Lord quickened to me Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s age…He is 55 yrs old….and I heard the Spirit say,

“DOUBLE GRACE SHALL BE POURED OUT UPON THIS LAND AND UPON ITS PEOPLE, WATCH! FOR THE MOUNTAIN SHALL BECOME A PLAIN AND THE CAPSTONE SHALL COME FORTH, FOR NOW I AM BUILDING AND ESTABLISHING MY KINGDOM PURPOSES IN THIS NATION”..!

RB: AMEN, and again Amen.

Birth of ‘New wineskin’ church confirmed by Veronika West prophecy (GPS #45.1)

Posted on by

Further to my reference in the previous post to Catch The Fire in Farnborough, Hants, the senior leader Revd Christopher Bird aims to have its official launch in September. Before then, a ‘thought for the day’ and a weekly teaching from Christopher at 7pm every Sunday is ‘live’ on its Facebook page.

Nina and I were invited to join its second weekly video meeting last Wednesday evening and got online just in time to hear Christopher outlining this new church’s DNA, viz:

    • committed to welcoming the presence of God;
    • being disciples who make disciples, and
    • cultivating a true sense of family.

On the first point he taught about the meaning of and necessity for new wineskins and how this applies to churches, and as an example referred to Moses’ encounter of the Glory of God. On being told to “Lead these people” Moses reacted that he’d not been told whom God would send with him and quoting the Lord, “I know you by name and You have found favour with me” asked, “If you are pleased with me, teach me Your ways so I may know You and continue to find favour with You…” Exodus 33:13 NIV).

The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you and I will give you rest.”  The rest of the passage is conversation about God’s Presence, and then He showed Moses His Glory!!!  

My finger remained in those pages when we turned to the Gospels but I got impelled to go back and noted Exod 34:10 as being what the Lord is promising us today!

The Covenant Renewed

10 And He said: “Behold, I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do [a]marvels such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the Lord. For it is an awesome thing that I will do with you.” [NKJV courtesy Biblegateway.com]

SO, this morning I find that Veronika West has published a confirmation on her ministry Facebook(emphases mine):

‘Yesterday I heard the Lord say so clearly,

“WATCH! FOR NEW WINE SKIN MINISTRIES ARE NOW BEING BIRTHED IN THE EARTH”…!

‘When I heard the Spirit say those words, I saw a NEW BREED OF MINISTRIES BEING BIRTHED in this time of RESET…,I saw the words ‘DYNAMIC’ AND ‘DUNAMIS POWER.’…THEN I SAW DIVINE EXPLOSIONS WHICH WERE TAKING PLACE IN THE REALM OF THE SPIRIT….AND THEN I HEARD THE SOUND OF MANY RUSHING WATERS….AND I COULD SEE WELLS OPENING UP ACROSS THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH…!

‘THESE ARE THE WELLS OF REVIVAL…BURSTING FORTH UPON THE NATIONS WITH THE NEW WINE OF THE SPIRIT AND WITH THE DUNAMIS POWER OF GOD…!

‘Ps; I will let you into a conversation I had with a dear friend who shared with me that the Lord had given her the word “FUNNEL” while she was praying…and so she asked if I had some insights…and this was what the Lord showed me;

“The funnel is so interesting, I thought straight away of the NARROW PLACE…a PLACE OF BIRTHING….! Also A TIME WHERE THINGS ARE BEING BROUGHT TO A HEAD/POINT!!!  A place of DIVINE CONVERGENCE…!

Visions of spiritual ‘atomic bomb’ confirmed by Emma Stark

Posted on by

I don’t get time to watch video links that folks kindly send me, but this one is highly recommended. So I suggest allocating an hour to watch and consider will be time well spent.

We’re not, admittedly, fans of American shows, BUT this one’s important. It was brought to my attention by a reader and contributor to this blog, Dave Hood, but being extremely busy I got to hear the early minutes only whilst tapping on my keys. Others mentioned it and I chatted about the first speaker’s claims with members of the Prophetic Releasers Fbk group, and so I intended taking time out to watch. But a couple of days later I got spurred into making it a priority, and the way that was done can only be of the Lord..!

In video conference for those interested in a new Catch The Fire church planned for Farnborough, its leader Christopher Bird drew attention to a vision we’d both had, and his wife Rachel added that Emma Stark of Glasgow Prophetic Centre had also had a similar one – and then referred to that video I’d yet to watch!

In fact, what Emma witnessed was the second confirmation in chronological sequence of the original vision a pastor in Reading, Berkshire, had 30 years ago. 

2ND CONFIRMATION OF VISION

Initially, the video caught my attention when Tracy Cook began talking about a dream two months ago about the suspicious source of ‘Chinese Flu’ and the subsequent world-wide Shaking. (I stopped there and didn’t hear the remainder.)

At 31:20 min mark Sid Roth tasks Emma for more of her thoughts on what we can do about the spirit of fear associated with this crisis; but first she qualifies her reply:

“I think a new breed of church is going to emerge and it’s going to be a post-Pentecostal and a post-Charismatic church; it’s not going to look like any version of church that we would say should be our ‘go-to’ aim. In actual fact, we’re going to enter the days of the Church of Holy Power, and that’s what’s going to be established at the end of this Shaking.

“Last year I was on my face in Africa in prayer, and I heard a bomb going off in the spirit realm. (Elsewhere, she describes it as a ‘terrifyingly awesome sound.’)  You know, I grew up in Northern Ireland so I’m used to hearing bombs in the natural. But this was a bomb in the spirit realm, and I said to God, “What have You done?”

He said, “Watch!” and the spray of this heavenly-sent bomb covered the entire globe and the spray started to land on the flesh of men and it started to have an effect on their skin and their skin started to melt and I said to God, “What are You doing” and He said,

“I’m making sure that it is not about one man, it is not about one ministry. I’m making sure that it’s not about ego. I’m making sure that I’m going to shake people so that all that is fleshly in them disintegrates. And on the back of that I will re-fire My Church with Holy Power.”

“And so when we actually come back to regather, we’re going to find churches move in a greater demonstration of the power of God than ever had before, but we have to deal right now with this fear situation…”

Emma proceeded with practical ministry for everyone – which briefly affected her too. To learn more about what had happened in South Africa last May read chapter two of this free book:

I now recall our first visit 6-7 years ago to the church pastor Bird had moved to, not too far from us. (Nina had witnessed the Birds’ prophetic gifting in action at a lady’s house group.) As worship started at that church I suddenly had an open vision of a huge flame of fire shoot out into the hall from above the small band. 

Some may recall Jigsaw Pieces Portray 27th June’s Significance in Prophecy in which I recount my own and pastor Bird’s experiences of a spiritual ‘atom bomb’, but didn’t have the finer details Emma brought. Here are those relevant ‘pieces’…

3RD CONFIRMATION (Pastor’s ‘atomic bomb’)

In referring to that conference at the start of Sunday’s service at FBC, Revd Christopher Bird described it as being like an “atomic bomb” in introducing theology students to the Holy Spirit’s practical, power ministry.  Now, he had my complete attention because I’d blogged about having seen one of those explode in a vision 27 years ago today, as told when inviting readers to February’s One Voice prophecy conference (Bringing the Glorious Word of the Lord to the Nation).

Maybe Chris was referring to my vision of golden rainfall and exploding atomic bomb, because I’d mentioned it in my email inviting him to the One Voice event?

Afterwards therefore, I asked Chris why he’d used those words and he said he’d seen a picture in his morning prayers that developed into an atomic explosion of God’s glory across our nation!  However, he apologised for NOT having read my email yet – and then thanked me because I was confirming what he’d seen that morning! Therefore, it must surely be a God thing!!

1ST CONFIRMATION (My vision and original)

In other words, Chris directly confirmed the vision I’d had as he hadn’t read my account from my first years as a new believer at Tilehurst Free Church (Baptist), which reads:

‘At a very early Pangbourne prayer morning on 27 June 1992 I saw “a waterfall of golden rain which became like a nuclear bomb but in reverse”. When I later told associate pastor David about this he expressed keen interest in view of the vision of liquid fire he’d previously seen over Tilehurst (ie. in 1980s).

‘What particularly impresses me about this picture was that the golden rain (flames?) suddenly condensed into a focal point and there followed a brilliant flash of light. In films of nuclear bombs I’ve seen, the immense flash was followed by fire.

‘Regret I’ve not got any relevant scripture for this but believe it may relate to TFC. Like that widespread ‘rain’, we’ve reverted into a more compact unit, or operation. Perhaps the next phase is for the Lord to ignite us into a powerful instrument, such that His light will go off like a mighty bomb.’

Subsequent considerations connected that vision to meetings held in late 1990s along the Thames Valley and prayers for God’s glory to flow through them into London.  Now however, as emphasised by this Hampshire minister, that glory explosion won’t be localised but will affect the whole nation!  But I was yet to learn of Emma’s ‘bomb’…

Timing of Brexit & tipping point for UK and EU nations – Veronika West (FP #163 & GPS #44)

Posted on by

TIMING IS EVERYTHING, as we well know by now. The past month my online action-list continued with a dozen items in the pipeline, but at long last I got a February item on Brexit blogged yesterday together with the latest. Neil MacKereth quickly commented about the ‘fortuitous’ timing of leaving the EU, otherwise it would have been seriously hampered by the current global situation. Also last night, Veronika West contacted me and kindly permits my publishing her message about the very same matter:

‘Richard, I felt to share this word with you, I think you have shared it once on your Website but I could be mistaken. As I re-read it yesterday I felt it was significant in light of the unfolding situation…! Furthermore I believe that it’s no coincidence with the timing of our LEAVING THE EU and the timing of this virus which is sweeping through Europe.

‘Much to pray about and WE CRY MERCY OVER THE NATIONS!!! POWERFUL DREAM CONCERNING MANY NATIONS OF EUROPE….’

Published 30 June 2018, blogged on 7th July at Is Weighing vs Restoration on God’s Agenda in EU vs UK? …

‘WATCH AND PRAY OVER THE HARVEST FIELDS OF EUROPE, WATCH AND BE READY! FOR THE GNAWING LOCUSTS, SWARMING LOCUSTS, CREEPING AND STRIPPING LOCUSTS HAVE BEEN UNLEASHED FROM THE BOWELS OF HELL AND THEY SHALL DEVOUR AND DEVASTATE THE LAND”!

‘A few days ago during a 7-day fast [June 2018], I had a very powerful dream that I believe speaks to the United Kingdom, BREXIT, the EU and many Nations of Europe. Now in this clear and vivid dream I was standing high above the centre of Europe. Now in the dream as I looked down at the different countries of Europe my eyes were immediately drawn to what looked like a large black cloud in the shape of a man’s hand rising from the depths of the sea. Now as I remained watching in the dream, I saw that the large black cloud was moving quickly and rapidly increasing in size. I watched as the hand grew larger and larger and I saw the five fingers of the hand grow longer and longer. Now in the dream I could clearly see the large black hand fast approaching the centre of Europe. Now as I stayed watching, suddenly I saw the fingers of the hand begin to write these words upon the landscape of Europe,

“MENE, MENE, TEKEL, PARSIN”!,

Then I heard these words, “EUROPE, EUROPE WAKE UP AND WAIL, RETURN AND REPENT FOR THE DAYS OF YOUR REIGN HAVE BEEN NUMBERED, YOU HAVE BEEN WEIGHED ON THE SCALES AND FOUND WANTING, YOUR KINGDOM WILL BE DIVIDED FOR YOU HAVE EATEN THE DELICACIES OF DARKNESS AND WITCHCRAFT AND THE DOOR TO DEATH AND DESTRUCTION HAS BEEN OPENED WIDE OVER THE LAND”, says the Spirit of God.

“EUROPE, EUROPE, WATCH AND PRAY OVER THE HARVEST FIELDS, FOR THE LOCUSTS ARE NOW INVADING, THE GNAWING LOCUSTS, THE SWARMING LOCUSTS, THE CREEPING LOCUSTS AND THE STRIPPING LOCUSTS SHALL MULTIPLY AND INCREASE. WATCH! FOR DARKNESS INCREASES AS THE HAND OF DEATH AND DESTRUCTION NOW MOVES UPON THE WATERS OF THE SEA AND LAND”, says the Spirit of God.

As I heard those words in the spirit realm going forth across the land, I began to CRY OUT FOR GOD’S MERCY, MERCY, MERCY IN THE MIDST OF JUDGEMENT OVER EUROPE..!

‘Then the dream suddenly shifted and I found myself standing over the land of the United Kingdom and I saw an ANCIENT DOOR OPEN WIDE OVER THE NATION, as I looked at the door I saw these words, ‘FIRE EXIT’, written upon its mantel, now as I looked at the words, ‘FIRE EXIT’, I saw the number (91) deeply engraved into the wood of the door, immediately the Holy Spirit whispered to me, “Psalm 91”, then I heard these words,

“MY BELOVED GREAT BRITAIN, WATCH! FOR A DOOR OF DELIVERANCE NOW OPENS UP BEFORE YOU, MY MERCY NOW MAKES A WAY WHERE THERE SEEMED NO WAY, MY BELOVED, FOR SURELY I TELL YOU I AM THE DOOR THAT LEADS TO LIFE, COME AND ENTER IN QUICKLY, FOR NOW IS THE TIME, NOW IS THE SEASON, FOR THE DOOR THAT LEADS TO DOUBLE RESTORATION AND RESTITUTION STANDS OPEN BEFORE YOU THIS DAY”! (The Dream Ended)…!

[30th June 2018 –  read the psalm at close of His Kingdom Prophecy version.]

Upon my responding to her message of last night, Veronika adds this PostScript:

‘Today I have mobilised our War Room and they are crying out for Europe we believe that many Nations are at a TIPPING POINT, STANDING IN THE VALLEY OF DECISION, I firmly believe that we are going to SEE GOD ARISE AND SCATTER HIS ENEMIES. There is battle raging over the Kingdom Destiny of many Nations in Europe, THE BLACK HORSE AND THE RIDER WHO HOLDS THE SCALES ARE NOW GALLOPING ACROSS THE NATIONS…!

It’s a sobering time yet a most exciting time, a few days ago I was shown a WOMB OF A HEAVILY PREGNANT WOMAN OVER THE NATIONS…and suddenly TWO RIVERS BURST FORTH UPON THE NATIONS, ONE WAS BLOOD-RED AND ONE WAS CRYSTAL CLEAR AND I heard these words,

“FROM HIS SIDE FLOWED TWO RIVERS, ONE THE CARRIES RESURRECTION POWER AND THE OTHER CLEANSING POWER, WATCH AS MY RIVERS OF CLEANSING BURST FORTH TO PURIFY THE NATIONS, WATCH AS MY RIVER OF RESURRECTION POWER BURST FORTH TO RENEW, REVIVE AND REFORM THE NATIONS, FOR OUT OF THE WOMB WILL COME FORTH THE WONDERS OF MY GLORY LIKE NEVER SEEN OR EXPERIENCED BEFORE. BEHOLD! THE TIME OF BIRTHING IS NOW”…!

On Veronika’s Ignite Ireland Ministry

Upon drawing Veronika’s attention to yesterday’s post First Brexit and now Pandemic, Deepens the Cracks and Splits EU with Neil’s comment, she notes:

‘Yes!!! Concerning timing I felt that was highlighted to me yesterday as Holy Spirit took me back to this word. The timing of our EXIT FROM EU AND THE VIRUS OUTBREAK IS BY NO MEANS COINCIDENTAL BUT IT’S THE DIVINE GRACE OF GOD THAT HAS BEEN SHOWN TO OUR NATION…!’

Footnote: I queried the apparent dichotomy between the picture of a womb and aural words “His side”. Veronika confirmed the latter is correct for that’s what she did hear. In a clear insight many years ago about the Crucifixion I understood that, contrary to the usual claim about Pentecost being the birth of the Church, it was born when a spear pierced Jesus side and blood and water burst forth, as in childbirth! It was witnessed by His close disciple John, as in his Gospel account and expanded upon in his first letter: 

The Certainty of God’s Witness

6 This is He who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth. 7 For there are three that bear witness [b]in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one. 8 And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one. [NKJV 1John 5]

Dogmatic dog-collar’s false teaching re Covid-19 – Yinka Oyekan

Posted on by
12

Further to the closure of my footnote in the previous post, here’s the dream Revd Yinka Oyekan, senior pastor of The Gate in Reading and president-elect of the Baptist Union, posted on his Facebook last Monday, and which confirmed my opinion of the pompous claims against recognised prophets as appended to my recent blog:

‘I had an interesting dream last night, I saw a minister in a dog-collar teaching people that this COVID19 was a judgement on the nation and using Jesus’ Name. The Lord’s anger flared at the suggestion and He woke me up to pray…

‘So this morning I read the scriptures again that revealed God’s intent for humanity. Jesus healed everyone who came to him and had compassion on the poor and sick, this he said to me is my heart to help the oppressed, to help the poor and to help the weak.

‘My advice – please don’t get sucked in by words which call this Covid 19 a judgement – God loves humanity and wants to protect it.’

2019 prophecy of new life out of national paralysis revisited (F/P #161)

Veronika West has revisited a word she brought last year, which most folk regarded as clearly relating to the paralysed state of parliamentary government within Britain.

However, on Tuesday she notes, “Interesting to read it now in context of LOCKDOWNS AND THE SUSPENSION OF ALL GATHERINGS” and republished on her Facebook.

Thank you to Angus MacKillop for drawing attention to His Kingdom Prophecy version published 5th September 2019 (click title below for link). Note reference to Time (which I’d so happened to refer to in commenting upon a request in Prophetic Releasers group for prayers for London, and to which Veronika had reacted) – as well as Donald Trump’s remark in the previous post to “timelines”:

THE BIRTHING OF A NEW KINGDOM ERA IS NOW UPON THE UK

I heard the spirit say, “Some will say the nation has become paralysed and stuck by divisions and indecision.

“But I say, no!!  This nation is not in a state of paralysis or stagnation, but rather a state of temporary suspension, yes!

“A divine delay as My Spirit now moves upon the hands of the clock that govern Time over this land, yes!

“So watch and pray, for it is but for a moment of time, a kairos moment, look and see for a small window now stands open before this nation, ha!!

“A portal and a gateway for the rivers of My Glory, so arise My Ecclesia and let your voices be heard.

“Let the cry of repentance go forth across this land and let the call for a demonstration of My Righteousness and Justice be heard, for even now, there are those who look but do not see!

“As warrior angels of awakening and breakthrough are now ascending and descending upon the soil of this land, to the North, South, East and West.  So get ready!

“For the birthing of a new Kingdom Era is now upon this nation.

“Listen!  For the sound of deep groanings like a mother who cries out in the pain of childbirth is being heard.

“But watch and listen, for a turning and a shifting is now taking place in the realm of The Spirit over this land.  The sound of deep groanings will soon give way to the cry of new life and new beginnings!”

Blessings to you all ~ by Veronika West
