Leisa writes, ‘As the New Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, a true King Cyrus leader has been positioned into office in the UK, I believe it is a sign that we must listen to the call of the Shofar, more closely than ever; as God leads the People of God with unusual and strategic strategies by His Spirit. We are called for such a time as this. Please find the Prophetic Word the Lord gave me today..:’
THE SPIRIT CALL PROPHECY
“There are mysteries I long to share with you, says the Lord. “I say they that have ears let them hear. For surely, I am changing the format,” says God. “The scenery of the room has changed. You shall enter by one way, but I shall show you secret passages to leave that room that you never knew existed,” says the Lord. “These shall be lit by the lanterns of My Glory, for as you walk into places you have not been before, in total faith, I shall reward you with peoples, provisioning and harvest. Why are my ministers remaining in lack?” says God.
“Have they followed My direction, or turned to career provisioning? I am leading them to greater exploits where they must walk in greater faith. Believe for the Impossible and surely My sovereign hand will perform My Will. I am bringing about new patterns of thinking,” says the Lord, “and asking My remnant to conform their minds, as My Servant Paul wrote, to fresh revelation born of My Spirit. I have journeys you are yet to embark upon and assignments you have yet to fulfill,” says the Lord. “Emerge from the flesh and allow your spirits to soar to a higher plane with Me. I am waiting to instruct, I am waiting to impart, and as you choose to elevate your thinking to a new place surely your minds will no longer fill you with burdens and worries. Problems of the day shall be as faint whispers as you commit such things to Me in faith, and My Voice shall become louder and more distinct,” says God. “This My children, is the call of the shofar, a clarion noise that outshines any other. Walk into the New Day and let your spiritual eyes see new things. For nations are being transformed as My Sovereign Hand causes a great saturation of My power to come in measured portions to dig deep caverns, as evil is expelled from My chosen places. Rise up My people and let the declarations of your lips be louder than the dark sayings of the enemy. I have called you to greatness, let not your own inhibitions keep you bound,” says the Living God.
Footnote: I note this was received the day Neil Mackereth asked “As we await the name of the next Prime Minister, I note that we have blue skies, the temperature is rising and there are no clouds on the horizon! Is it a prophetic sign?” In that night’s unusual and continual electrical storms Nina sensed the Lord saying,“I’m shining My light into all the darkness!”, and above He refers to expelling evil from ‘His chosen places’ and to ‘dark sayings of the enemy’!
A WORD FOR THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND: “TWO CHAIRS, ONE OF GREAT FRAGILITY AND UNCERTAINTY AND ONE OF GREAT STRENGTH AND FORTITUDE”..!
I want to share a Dream concerning Prime Minister BORIS JOHNSON that I believe is significant, three (3) days ago I had a powerful dream about BORIS JOHNSON where I saw him go before Her Majesty the Queen to receive his Title as “PRIME MINISTER”.
Now in the dream I saw Boris Johnson shaking hands with Her Majesty the Queen and they both began to chat with one another about the new position of influence that Boris would have in the days ahead in the Nation. As I watched them talk in the dream they both proceeded to sit down together, and as they went to take their seats, suddenly I noticed that the CHAIR that PM Boris Johnson took was a chair that LOOKED LIKE AN OLD ANTIQUE CHAIR, WHICH WAS NOT ONLY VERY EXPENSIVE BUT VERY, VERY FRAGILE, NOW AS I LOOKED AGAIN IN THE DREAM AT THIS OLD AND EXPENSIVE ANTIQUE CHAIR, THE FOUR (4) LEGS OF THE CHAIR WERE IMMEDIATELY HIGHLIGHTED TO ME AS SOMETHING VERY SIGNIFICANT, BOTH (the number of legs that the chair had (4) and the fact that THE LEGS OF THE CHAIR LOOKED VERY SKINNY AND NOT VERY STRONG..!
Now As my eyes kept looking in the dream at Prime Minister Boris Johnson sitting in this fragile antique chair, I began to feel great sense of DANGER THAT AT ANY MOMENT THIS VERY OLD AND VERY EXPENSIVE ANTIQUE CHAIR WOULD BREAK UNDER THE HEAVY WEIGHT OF OUR NEW PRIME MINISTER. So I began to pray fervently in the dream for PM Boris Johnson that the fragile and expensive chair would indeed hold his weight and that it would not break and that he would certainly not fall and that he would remain safe and secure while sitting on the fragile chair while in the presence of Her Majesty the Queen and the Nation that was watching closely at their meeting which was taking place.
But as I was praying in the dream, suddenly I heard THESE WORDS,
“WATCH AND PRAY FOR THE NEXT FOUR MONTHS WILL BE MARKED WITH GREAT UNCERTAINTY AND DANGER FOR PRIME MINISTER BORIS JOHNSON AND HIS CABINET, FOR THERE WILL BE THOSE WHO WILL RELENTLESSLY SEEK TO UNSEAT HIM AND TO BRING DOWN HIS GOVERNMENT”..!
On Hearing those words in the dream, I began to CRY OUT FOR THE NATION ONCE AGAIN..! And suddenly the dream shifted and I saw the Queen stand up and I heard her say these words to PM Boris Johnson, “COME! DO NOT SIT ON THAT SEAT, IT’S NOT VERY STRONG OR STURDY BUT RATHER SIT ON THIS SEAT”..,and I watched as Her Majesty the Queen then lead PM Boris Johnson to the CHAIR OF WINSTON CHURCHILL…,and I watched as PM BORIS JOHNSON THEN SAT DOWN UPON THE LARGE AND COMFORTABLE CHAIR WHICH HAD BELONGED TO SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL, PM Boris Johnson smiled and then continued his conversation with Her Majesty the Queen which lasted for a SHORT WHILE, he then got up from the Churchill Chair THANKED HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN AND LEFT TO GO BACK TO NO 10…! (I woke up)
As I have prayed over this dream the Lord clearly spoke to me about the next 4 MONTHS being VERY SIGNIFICANT MONTHS FOR THE NEW PRIME MINISTER AND HIS GOVERNMENT, the next 4 MONTHS WILL BE MARKED WITH GREAT FRAGILITY, UNCERTAINTY AND DANGER FOR PM BORIS JOHNSON AND HIS GOVERNMENT, there will be many that will seek to UNSEAT HIM, THEY WILL PLOT AND SCHEME TOGETHER HOPING THAT HE FAILS AND FALLS FROM HIS POSITION AS LEADER. THERE WILL BE THOSE WHO WILL RELENTLESSLY OPPOSE HIM BOTH TO THE RIGHT AND TO THE LEFT, MANY WILL WORK TIRELESSLY TO CAUSE GREAT EMBARRASSMENT FOR PM BORIS JOHNSON BOTH IN FRONT OF HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN AND THE NATION.
BUT!! WATCH there will come a SUDDEN AND SEVERE SHIFT ONCE AGAIN IN THE NATION AND THE GOVERNMENT where we will see the hand of GOD’S DIVINE INTERVENTION MOVING ON BEHALF OF OUR NATION AND FOR BORIS JOHNSON AND HIS GOVERNMENT.
I believe we will see PM Boris Johnson STAND IN A GENERAL ELECTION and the very fragile chair that he first sat upon will BE REPLACED BY THE CHAIR OF WINSTON CHURCHILL.
I believe He will sit upon this CHAIR, “THE CHAIR OF CHURCHILL” FOR A SHORT TIME AS HE SERVES OUR NATION UNDER THE WATCHFUL EYE AND FAVOURABLE HAND OF THE KING OF HEAVEN AND HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN OF ENGLAND.
FRIENDS! PLEASE PRAY AND WEIGH THIS WORD SERIOUSLY AND SOBERLY BEFORE GOD.
LET US NOT GROW WEARY IN THE DAYS AHEAD, BUT LET US KEEP WATCHING AND PRAYING FERVENTLY FOR OUR LEADERS AT THIS TIME OF CRITICAL TRANSITION. FOR THE WATERS HAVE BROKEN AND THE TIME TO PUSH/P.U.S.H IS UPON US, THE TIME TO BRING TO BIRTH THAT WHICH HAS BEEN PROMISED TO THIS NATION BY THE KING OF GLORY IS NOW…!

A day to pray, worship and very specifically make declarations on the hour, every hour from 6am – 6pm; in homes, streets or workplaces on behalf of London.
We are aware of the challenges that face so many of our cities at this time but underneath the shaking and the issues, God is at work. He shakes things, so that something else can be established and there is tremendous potential at the moment for an outpouring of His Spirit into our land to touch people with His mercy and kindness, drawing them to salvation. However, alongside He is also working to re-establish righteousness, justice, mercy and truth within our culture, from Government & institutions to every aspect of society. While these things are national, I believe this is a…
Leisa Ebere emails me yesterday with an urgent request for intercessory action, as well as a most interesting word from the Lord that may relate to the 1992 vision of an ‘atomic glory bomb’, as revealed on its 27th anniversary, and elsewhere. Leisa writes,
‘I’ve had two Park Revelations, one a Vision and the other a direct Word of Knowledge calling people to pray for the Regent’s Park Music Festival on 14 July 2019. Please can you post these asap. As I believe these are both warnings & assurances from the Lord? Thank you so much, Leisa 🔥🙏✝️
‘Here they are:
‘Dear People of God, I have had a strong sensing from the Lord today, 10 July 2019, there is a huge ‘plan of violence’ being premeditated to be carried out at the Regent’s Park Music Festival on the 14th of July in London. Please be interceding for protection of innocent people and bind the strong man of terrorism and violence in the Name of Jesus. Let God Arise and His Enemies be Scattered.’
‘Thank you, Leisa E.
THE GLORY CLOUD VISION
given to Leisa Ebere, July 6, 2019
‘I was walking in a large park with trees and I was on a running track and I knew there were wolves in the woods of the park and all around me. Then the Lord Jesus appeared and took my hand and said: “Be at peace now, for you cannot do this without me; but now that I have come, all will be well.”
Then I heard snarling and growls all around me and Jesus took my hand and held it and looked into my eyes and said, “Though they exist they shall never consume you, for as long as we walk together, they cannot cross the line.” I asked the Lord: ‘What line Lord?’ “The Line of demarcation,” said the Lord, “the boundaries have been set and the Glory Cloud has come.”
‘Then the Lord went into further explanation and said:
“I have always fixed boundaries since Ancient times and now My Spirit is being poured out upon My Sons & Daughters to take back what is rightfully theirs. People must understand the reality of Godly order for protection of My Sheep must be of great importance as the times and seasons become darker in the days ahead. My Child, the Glory Cloud has come,”said the Lord of Hosts.’
On 1st July Yvonne Coombs posted this exceptionally powerful prophecy on Facebook: which brings detailed confirmation of the humorous vision noted 2nd May (part 1 refers):
BACK TO BASICS – THE GOSPEL OF GOOD NEWS
I see a deck of cards being flung over the UK and I notice they are all Ace of spades. I then see another deck being flung that are all Aces of hearts, then again a whole deck as the Aces of diamonds and finally another deck as the Aces of clubs. These come from the North, East, South and West.
I then see a tower of these cards over the Centre of the Country. I then see 4 swords being rammed into the earth with such power that the earth shakes and again, they are arranged around the tower of cards from North, to South, to East, to West. I believe the cards represent four-of-a-kind in poker.
I then see the word ‘Sceptre’ over the Northern sword, ‘Grace‘ over the Eastern sword, ‘Servitude’ over the Southern sword and ‘Mercy’ over the Western sword.
The swords are then covered in oil from above and set on fire as orange flames lick over them and hear the words “TOO HOT TO HANDLE” and felt the Spirit reveal there must be a moment to wait for them to cool.
The Lord says,
“THEY ARE TOO HOT TO HANDLE AND DO NOT EVEN ATTEMPT TO TOUCH THEM BUT, WHEN THE DECISION IS MADE OVER MY NATION OF THE UK, THEY SHALL BURN AS BLUE AND THEN YOU MY CHILDREN SHALL TAKE THEM AND RUN WITH THEM AND GO BACK TO THE BASICS, THE GOSPEL OF GOOD NEWS THAT WAS ONLY MADE POSSIBLE THROUGH MY SON JESUS, HE WHO TURNED THE RIVERS RED BY HIS BLOOD SHALL TAKE BACK WHAT IS MINE!”
I ask the Lord what the four-of-a-kind means over our Nation?
“MATHEW, MARK, LUKE AND JOHN! YOU SHALL SHAKE OFF THE DUST AND MIGRATE IN MY SPIRIT, OUT TO THE CORNERS OF THE EARTH. YOU SHALL TAKE THE SWORD OF MY WORD AND CUT DOWN EVERY HOUSE OF CARDS THAT I DID NOT BUILD AND MY TOWER OF CARDS SHALL STAND, FOR MY FOUNDATION IS THE CORNERSTONE, MY WORD IS AS FLINT TO THE FLAME IT MAKES AND THE UK SHALL BE AS A BEACON TO THE NATIONS OF MY GLORY AND MERCY YET, YOU MUST KNEEL BEFORE ME AND ASK AND DECLARE “MY KINGDOM COME”!”
I believe the period from orange to blue flame is in the cleansing of the dross and preparation for the coming in of the baptism of fire (Exodus 3:5 “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.”)
Are we ready and willing to call the towns, cities and Nation to prayer and repentance? AS THE LORD HAS RESHUFFLED FOR THE LAST TIME OVER THIS NATION, ARE WE GOING TO LAY OUR CARDS DOWN AND TRUST THE HAND WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN AND BE AS ONE IN UNITY? PRAISE BE TO GOD!
Sceptre [S]
(Heb. shebet = Gr. skeptron), properly a staff or rod. As a symbol of authority, the use of the sceptre originated in the idea that the ruler was as a shepherd of his people ( Genesis 49:10 ; Numbers 24:17 ; Psalms 45:6 ; Isaiah 14:5 ).
sceptre
noun: scepter
1 an ornamented staff carried by rulers on ceremonial occasions as a symbol of sovereignty.”imperial regalia of orb and sceptre”
Isaiah 44:3-4
3 For I will pour water on the thirsty land,
and streams on the dry ground;
I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring,
and my blessing on your descendants.
4They will spring up like grass in a meadow,
like poplar trees by flowing streams.
Ezekiel:4-9

Bringing the Word of the Lord, through the voice of the Ekklesia to the nation!
We believe that God is still speaking into the Nation and the church is responsible for bringing that prophetic word to the attention of leaders, people in power and those who carry responsibility for the care of the nation. It is important that the word of the Lord comes out of a united ekklesia and we come together from our different streams to speak as one voice. This is a space for influential voices from the church, business, education and other spheres of influence.
Date And Time

Location
Reading – The Globe, Portman Road, Reading View Map
I’m privileged to bring news of this event convened by the Vice-President of the Baptist Union, Revd Yinka Oyekan pastor of The Gate, Reading, because I was most surprised to be invited to join discussions in its preparation.
Formerly Reading Community Church, The Gate was formed in July 2005 when two existing churches, Tilehurst Free Church and Groveland’s Christian Fellowship, joined together under Yinka’s leadership. Before I married Nina and moved to her town, I’d regularly attended TFC (Baptist) because it was where the Lord put me after my night-time encounter in 1989, as told here.
Whilst talking to the folks in Reading a memory of an interior vision suddenly ‘flashed’ – the operative word! – into mind. So I’ve dug into my files to give you a hint of the likely significance of Yinka’s above announcement. As with all prophetic visions it should be weighed with the Lord.
EXPLODING ‘GLORY-BOMB’
If you’re of the age when video footage of exploding nuclear bombs was often televised (during the Cold War), then you’ll recognise the description in this extract from my letter of May 1998 to TFC’s pastor Barry Kirk about Reading’s inter-church meetings and the fire of the Lord.:
‘At a very early Pangbourne prayer morning on 27 June 1992 [27 = 3 x 3 x 3 years ago!] I saw “a waterfall of golden rain which became like a nuclear bomb but in reverse”. When I later explained this to David D [associate pastor] he expressed interest in view of the vision of liquid fire he’d previously seen over Tilehurst.
‘What particularly impress me about this picture was that the golden rain (was it 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 many meetings being held along the Thames Valley and prayers for God’s glory to flow through them into London.
I’m privileged that Paul Clift has shared the full details surrounding the following dream with me as they authenticate his account and its importance. The ‘Background’ provides a good example of prophetic protocol, and next post shows it confirms an earlier word:
A Prophetic Dream of the Spiritual Tug-of-War
We are in a very fierce spiritual war for this nation of the UK. The evidence is all around us. We need to earnestly pray at this time.
I saw a tug-of-war taking place. This is nota party game but a massive spiritual war between opposing sides. It is a David and Goliath situation. I was reminded from the book of Ecclesiastes that a three-stranded cord is not easily broken. There are many more strands in a rope.
The Holy Spirit said that,
“The rope will not break in the natural realm. The rope can only be broken supernaturally. If the intercessors, prayer warriors and people of God repent and rise up together then all it will take is ONE word: “CUT”. God will respond and take hold of His sword which is sharper than any two-edged sword. The rope will be cleanly cut. The effect will be the two teams pulling on the rope will be taken by surprise. Each team will fall to the ground some distance from each other. Each team will be in a heap wondering what has happened.
“Do you not know there is an enemy within? They smile and shake hands, but deep inside they are not for this nation, the United Kingdom. They are traitors!”
I was taken aback at the word ‘traitor’ but the Holy Spirit reminded me that Jesus called the religious leaders of the day white-washed sepulchres.
“Do not be deceived by what you can see, because I see deep into the very depths of each human heart. In these days I am shaking everything that can be shaken and exposing for all to see the inner motives of people’s hearts.
“The heaps of people on the ground represents disarray, not knowing what to do, a difficult season. However, there will be a realisation after a short time that the United Kingdom is no longer in a tug-of-war. There will be a recovery. The EU will begin to blame each other and there will be much infighting. They will not recover.
“I need to bring Europe to its knees because I long for all people everywhere to come to repentance but pride is the obstacle. At this time intercede for Europe but repent and declare “CUT” over this nation.” [Underlining RB]
Gordian Knot Legend
Eve, my wife, noticed something on the TV and told me that I might be interested in what was being said in an interview.
On the morning of Wednesday May 28th 2019 an interview took place on BBC with Jacob Rees-Mogg (JRM). The interviewer asked him about a comment Jeremy Hunt had made earlier in the day describing the current situation between the EU and the UK “as a Gordian knot”. JRM described the legend.:
“There was an ox cart tied up with a complicated knot. An oracle had declared that any man who could unravel its elaborate knots was destined to become ruler of all of Asia. Alexander the Great wanted to untie the knot but struggled to do so without success. He then reasoned that it would make no difference how the knot was loosed, so he drew his sword and sliced it in half with a single stroke.”
Paul Clift
Wednesday 22nd May 2019 5.25am
Paul and Eve Clift started Healing Rooms England & Wales 16 years ago and passed it on last year but continue as Directors of Halifax Healing Rooms. They are Divisional Directors of Healing Rooms, which looks after about 15 nations across Europe, mostly Eastern Europe, and are part of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) at Kings Church, Halifax, which they’d started in their home.
Background:
The Prophetic Dream and the Gordian Knot were submitted in accordance with 1 Cor 14:29 to the SLT on Thursday 30th May 2019. At the next day’s SLT meeting both were considered and it was decided the Prophetic Dream and Gordian Knot should be read at the following Sunday’s morning meeting of Kings Church, when Paul was scheduled to conclude his teaching series on gifts of the Holy Spirit.
However, upon waking on Sunday Paul encountered a strong spiritual attack upon his health, which they realised was because of the dream. He needed help to get to church and was allowed to bring the prophetic dream at the beginning of the meeting – only then did the opposition start to lift. A period of prayer and intercession based upon the prophetic word was held later.
In fact only the previous Sunday, 26th May 2019, the full time leader at King’s Church, Paul McMahon, had recognized the real need to pray urgently for this nation. Although this significant prophetic dream had come to Paul Clift days earlier whilst away, he felt constrained not to respond. He later realised this was appropriate for the subsequent submission of the dream to the church’s leadership.
At long, long last another instance of the spiritual bridge over ‘the Pond’ ! (An imaginary supra-natural bridge linking Britain with North America used by Holy Spirit for delivering the same, or similar, teaching, messages or prophetic words on opposite sides of the North Atlantic ocean on the same, or next, day – see earlier posts.)
As told last Thursday in the previous post, it was the day of the EU elections when I emailed Dave Chapman about an intercessor at his church having contacted Nigel Farage. We didn’t proceed further in view of the Bank Holiday weekend and awaiting results of the election. However, on the holiday Monday, Canadian intercessor Maxine Phyllis left this notable comment to the dream about the next Prime Minister, and which warrants separate publication (note; a ‘gremlin’ treated it as ‘spam’!):
Endless Bridge by Evgeni Denev (credit Freedigitalphotos.net)
‘From Atlantic Canada: This brings me to an experience I had with the Lord in which I was given a free air ticket in 2008, to travel to England where I spent two weeks based in Somerset County. I flew out of Halifax, Nova Scotia on October 31, 2008 and spent the Remembrance Day season in Britain. As a descendant of Canadian war veterans it was a huge deal to me, but the LORD – the Holy One of Israel – had something to show me about where the political realms came to an end and the Kingdom of God begins. I saw in the Spirit a great dark veil spread over all of North America and I heard the Lord say “The entire western hemisphere needs to learn the way of the cross for what comes next.”
‘From this perspective, as I read through the text of this spiritual dream above, it speaks volumes to me about what’s to come next for the Judeo-Christian world. From a Kingdom perspective the BREXIT campaign is NOT just about upholding democracy for Britain, but it’s about preserving freedom for Kingdom sons to become all they were created to be for such a time as this. All of creation is waiting to see it, as the fullness of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit takes up residence on earth as He is in heaven (Romans 8:17-21). Therefore, any political leader who promises Brexit in order to support democracy only will not be able to complete the task because, in the fullness of the Kingdom, there comes an end to freedom for individuals to continue promoting the sinful human nature. Whether he knows it or not, a governing authority put in place as a Prime Minister responsible for carrying Brexit to its completion, is one put in place by God to facilitate the separation of goats and sheep (Romans 13, Matthew 25). Unless he understands how God is using him he will be thrown into utter confusion by thinking his highest goal is to ensure financial freedom for a Judeo-Christian nation; even if it means ensuring those who practice rebellion towards God are free to continue doing so.
‘Since I returned to Atlantic Canada I’ve had powerful visions from heaven about the New Jerusalem coming down from God through the UK and over to North America, for the sole purpose of bringing forth the fulfillment of His promises about Israel and the Jewish people. On the day of the Brexit referendum – June 23, 2016 – the Lord led me to go prayer walking on behalf of the UK and I saw in the Spirit an open heaven between Atlantic Canada and the heavenly realms over England. I saw the LORD stand up from His throne and applaud. I asked Him how to pray and He revealed to me that His plans lined up with another 23rd day described in the book of Esther (Esther 8 – 23rd day of Sivan). He led me to pray for the Hamans to be hung on their own gallows. Then He showed me it was a time for the Church to write new decrees, however we see fit. The goal is the same now as it was then: to defend His sovereign purposes for Israel and the Jewish people. The nations are redeemed, or not, through their willingness to line up with His plans accordingly. We need to pray for all our governing authorities to be used as facilitators for this cause: to bring forth new wine and oil related to His coming Kingdom and His will to be done on earth as He is in heaven.
‘In the face of all that, the key word that hits my spirit from this dream described above, is the word ‘SCROLL’. It speaks to me of the Great Scroll of Isaiah which was preserved as one of the most important Dead Sea scrolls and which, when translated into English, proves the veracity of the original King James Bible. The text of Isaiah in the original King James is almost word-for-word identical to the Great Scroll of Isaiah translated directly from Hebrew to English. Also, the word SCROLL in this dream speaks to me of Revelation 10:10. I’ve had literal experiences here in Atlantic Canada with this, hearing the voice of the seven thunders speaking from up over the UK to the free Judeo-Christian world. I’ve had visitations from the Lord as a result of having met Him in a powerful way at the Morning Room of Wesley’s Chapel, Bristol, UK. It’s like an open heaven from there to Atlantic Canada follows me around and I often hear the word “SCROLL”; as if this scroll described in Revelation 10:10 is originating from the ministry begun by the Wesleys in Bristol and London. There is something decidedly English about it all, as the English language was spread far and wide along with the distribution of the King James Bible, and English is now the world’s ‘lingua franca’ – the ‘go-to’ language for people of other tongues to have one common language in order to communicate.
‘I’ve made it a personal mission to pray for Nigel Farage to be transformed into a Kingdom son, so that Brexit will be used to point people to the coming Kingdom of God. Then the freedom that is so desperately being sought will be used to exalt above all else the Name of the Lord and His Word. That the Prime Minister in this dream above placed his head on the author’s shoulder, speaks of him resting his understanding on the Presence of the Kingdom of God in the life of the author, and on the truth that ‘the government will be on His shoulders’. (Isaiah 9:6). The Prime Minister in this dream is asking for understanding and support from the Kingdom of God to sustain our God-given freedom for the Judeo-Christian nations. He needs to be transformed into a Kingdom son to make it happen. He needs to learn what it means to take up the cross and follow Christ – first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. This is an anointing and mantle the Lord has given me to teach to the ‘entire western hemisphere’ but it currently appears that the darkness will get darker still before even Spirit-led, mature believers will agree to meet the Lord at the cross in a personal way.
‘Feel free to connect for the purposes of interceding for the Kingdom’s plans for Brexit to prevail. I have a site – Through Fire and Water – which the Lord continues to prompt me to rename ‘gloryofzioncanada.ca’. He has done a very hidden work from a Canadian perspective related to the cross, for the purpose of standing in the gap for both UK and USA.’
Maxine Phyllis, 27th May.
Personal Footnote:
Norris Point, Newfoundland, April 2008
Maxine’s message evokes strong personal connections for several reasons.
First, I well recall my first sightings of the other end of the ‘bridge’ upon flying over Newfoundland and Nova Scotia en-route to Toronto, as well as down to Florida for the Caribbean and inland to Arizona.
Also, within 10 miles of our home in East Hampshire are three Canadian war memorial sites. Our associated church of St Mary’s in Bramshott has a cemetery of over 300 graves of our Canadian allies fallen in the Great War (Alison Avery’s photos include those of Canadian Memorial planting of maple trees).
My earliest memory, however, is told in my 2,000th post in connection with my writing as well as sketching a short story which my class-teacher commended to the headmistress of my primary school. (Inspired by the motto “The Mountie always gets his man”, the hero received a medal from the young Queen Elizabeth for his bravery.) And what’s more, as I blogged about that we were following the Netflix drama ‘When Calls The Heart’, which features the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
Tom O’Conner writes in yesterday afternoon’s Newsweek, ‘Fire broke out at the revered Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem just as flames ravaged the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.
‘Footage showing smoke and fire emerging from the roof of a structure known as the Marwani Prayer Room, or Solomon’s Stables, could be seen on social media. The Palestine News Agency, the official outlet of the Palestinian National Authority, cited a guard as saying Monday that “the fire broke out in the guard’s room outside the roof of the Marwani Prayer Room, and the fire brigade of the Islamic Waqf handled the matter successfully…Sheikh Azzam al-Khatib, director general of the Jerusalem Waqf and Al-Aqsa Mosque Affairs Department, told Jordan’s Al-Mamlaka TV that the fire broke out in the courtyard and preliminary information suggested that it may have been caused by children tampering in the area.’
That the above buried news of the Al-Aqsa compound fire is not only synchronous but also is part of what God is doing worldwide, will become clear upon reading the first of two words received in this morning’s email, namely:
1. FIRE IN PARIS PROPHECY
The Lord would say, “The fire of the Paris Cathedral is a signpost of My Spirit and is the beginning of the tearing down of the high places of religion across the nations of the Earth. For surely I am doing a new thing in the midst of you and My Spirit shall burn down the old entrapments and raise up the new places that I have decreed.” For the Lord says, as is written in Jeremiah 23:29 ‘Is not My Word like fire and like a hammer that breaks a rock into pieces?’
“Watch and Listen for I am causing both heavenly and earthly signs to identify the changes I am making to re-frame the earth so that My righteousness and glory are at the forefront,” says the Lord of Hosts. “Be vigilant Watchman and make My Signs known to My People,”says the Lord.

2. “NOTRE DAME IS ON FIRE…! PRAYING FOR PARIS FRANCE…!!
While watching the FLAMES RISE OVER NOTRE DAME the Holy Spirit quickened to me this powerful word I gave for France last year…!
A WORD FOR THE NATION OF FRANCE; “WATCH! FOR THE FIERY PHOENIX IS RISING, RISING, RISING FROM THE ASHES TO NEW LIFE AND NEW BEGINNINGS”
This afternoon while sitting talking with the Lord in my garden suddenly I saw the Nation of France and as I looked at the Nation I saw a FIERY PHOENIX RISING UP FROM THE ASHES, as I looked again at the Nation the Word of the Lord was quickened to me saying, “Then I thought, ‘I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days like the phoenix’. On hearing these words I immediately inquired of the Holy Spirit and I heard Him say,
“DAUGHTER, I HAVE HEARD THE CRIES OF MY PEOPLE AS THEY HAVE WEPT FOR MERCY, MERCY, MERCY OVER THIS NATION, FOR SURELY IT HAS LOOKED LIKE THEY WOULD DIE IN THEIR NEST, BUT WATCH! FOR A MIGHTY WHIRLWIND OF MY SPIRIT NOW BRINGS FORTH RESURRECTION POWER TO THAT WHICH LIES BENEATH THE ASH HEAP, WATCH! FOR THE NATION OF FRANCE SHALL BE LIKE THE FIERY PHOENIX RISING, RISING, RISING FROM THE ASHES OF DESTRUCTION AND DEATH TO THE BEAUTY OF NEW LIFE AND NEW BEGINNINGS. WATCH! AS MY SPIRIT NOW MOVES ACROSS THIS LAND TO RESURRECT AND RESTORE, TO REFORM AND REVIVE, WATCH! AS MY GOVERNING HAND MOVES MIGHTILY IN THE DAYS AHEAD TO MULTIPLY HER DAYS LIKE THAT OF MY SERVANT JOB,” says the Spirit of God.
I DECLARE AND DECREE; THAT THE NATION OF FRANCE SHALL RISE, RISE, RISE LIKE A FIERY PHOENIX FROM THE ASH HEAP OF DESTRUCTION AND DEATH TO THE BEAUTY OF NEW LIFE AND NEW BEGINNINGS.
Note; PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR THE NATION OF FRANCE IN THIS HOUR. (click to read vision to Pray for France Arising dated 3rd May 2017)
Note; Job, notwithstanding his present despair of it, was favoured and satisfied with, (Psalms 91:16 ) ( Job 42:16 Job 42:17 Job 29:18) . Some versions render it, “as the phoenix”, a bird of that name, spoken of by many writers as a very long lived one; some say it lived five hundred years, others five hundred forty, others six hundred sixty…!

3. BRITISH ISLES/UK and EUROPE: IT’S TIME TO REAP WHAT YOU’VE SOWN
Roger Jervois in South Africa kindly forwarded copy of yesterday’s conversation he had with a sister in UK who moves in the prophetic. They note a specific reference to ‘Fire of God’ in an American’s prophetic word, the title of which I’d noticed a few days ago but for different reasons.
• ‘We make room for the Holy Spirit in our local church gatherings. It’s impossible to see culture shift without a local church that maintains an open atmosphere to the supernatural movement of the Spirit. I prophesy, Europe and UK – may the fire of God burn strong in your churches! I even see some of the ancient landmarks of faith, the cathedrals and beautiful sanctuaries of old, coming alive again with the fire of God.’

Readers will recall the work of Suzanne Ferrett and the many declarations over our nation she publishes at Passion for the Nation, as well as a Spiritual Magna Carta. (Click link for introduction). Today’s declaration appears below:

Declarations to Shape a Nation – Day 11
National Day of Prayer
We thank You for the mantle of prayer resting upon this nation at this time, for the individuals, groups and movements You are raising up, for the diversity of how people pray and the different anointings, callings and strategies being released at this time, orchestrated by Your Spirit. Even as Your word states ‘if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in Heaven,’ we declare as the Headship of Jesus is established over Your people, a new ‘oneness’ in prayer will be released, uniting those of different generations, culture groups and streams. We praise You for the work of Your Spirit and for the depth and width of Your purposes at this time. We declare as Your people pray, Your Kingdom will be released in great measure, changing hearts, touching lives and transforming communities.
We decree and declare the Name of Jesus will be lifted over the villages, towns and cities in this nation, that the awakening breath of Jesus will blow in us and through us – until this nation is fully His. We decree and declare God’s people in this land will arise, going through the gates; preparing the way, removing the stones, lifting a banner for the people. We speak to this nation in the Name of Jesus and we declare “surely your salvation is coming.”
Now, as Parliament meets today, we decree and declare the outworking of every emotion, frustration and weariness will serve and facilitate His purposes today.
We declare the Kingdom of God will be established over every other rule and dominion, of power, of greed and of the thoughts of man, that the new season God has planned for this nation will be delivered in full, in order and on time.
We declare the power of God-appointed leadership to bring about Kingdom purpose. We declare this nation will be led throughout this Brexit season by those appointed by Him for this task, those carrying God-given vision, supported and surrounded by the prayers of His people and aided by the Hosts of Heaven.
As the European Leaders meet tonight, we come into agreement with Psalm 29, and we declare “Your Voice shakes the wilderness …and causes the deer to give birth, it strips the forest bare”. We declare God’s Voice will arise, silencing every other voice. We decree and declare the outworking of every emotion, frustration and weariness will serve and facilitate His purposes this day.
Readers are strongly encouraged to share far and wide this astute overview by Neil Mackereth published below. He’s not only well-versed in Biblical End-times but also one of my first contributors of many articles about the need for Britain to regain its sovereign independence by leaving the Europe’s expanding federation, or Fourth Reich.
A week before submitting his latest, Neil emails me on 2nd April: “Many thanks for the possible May/Merkel collusion bombshell. ‘Tis difficult in these calamitous times to be certain about anything, except our Lord. There is no doubt in my mind that the majority of our MP’s are continuing to pretend that they are working hard to fulfill the will of the people while in reality they are undermining all the principles of democracy…
“I am convinced that God’s hand is controlling the whole revealing process and, as always, His ways are not our ways. I do hope and pray that this is not a Joshua and Caleb moment where the 10 prophets of doom got their way and caused 40 years in the wilderness, rather than immediate entry to the promised land! On balance, I think that is unlikely and pray that we will achieve a clean break.
“Thought this (illustration is) a good summary of the present position:”
Since then, Neil has participated in local prayer meetings whilst drafting and circulating the following and notes “I feel an urgent need to press on with focused, sincere and informed prayer”Continue reading →
Although news is now ‘fast and furious’ over Brexit and the PM’s future, here’s a point from yesterday morning that brings yet another fulfilling of my prophetical musing about the Lord exposing rotten politics, plus a further prophetic insight a contributor to this blog received last night.
Once again, Remain-backing Chancellor of the Exchequer Philip Hammond who’s been termed a ‘rogue element’, features in the frame:
‘Philip Hammond said a second referendum is a “perfectly coherent proposition” which “deserves to be considered”, while Theresa May gathers Brexiteers at an emergency meeting in Chequers.
‘The Chancellor said a coup in Cabinet against Mrs May would be “self indulgent” and warned that “the stakes are very high for our nation and for us as a government.”
‘Asked which Brexit options he would consider if they were put to Parliament in a series of “indicative votes”, the Chancellor said no deal and revoking Article 50 should be off the table. However, he did not rule out supporting a second referendum.’ (Philip Hammond says second referendum ‘deserves to be considered’)
‘These words continue to be my prayer – Let my people go – there are 10 plagues each building on the last.
‘The Lord’s will will not be thwarted.
“Wait in wonder.”
Also, Erica expands upon this in an email. As it’s directly relevant to the prophesied exposure I take the liberty to publish, for she writes,
‘As I have prayed this evening – placing all in His care all my concerns and the curious situation we are living through I had a deep sense that His will will not be thwarted; this I wrote to you some time ago.
‘This time along with that the words I heard:
“There is one more deception to be revealed”.
‘So as we wait in what seems contrary to His will – I had to write to share with you, to use in your prayers.’
A great deal is happening not only in the news but also on personally, as well as lots for this blog. Kindly bear with me whilst I dash out items and hope you won’t feel flooded.
We’ve repeated this since 2012 and this morning found ourselves at Day 69, which just so ‘happens’ to be forWESTMINSTER! (click/tap for full story)
Although its original date was 26 July 2012, perhaps you’d like to join us in praying the following for blessing everyone living and working in Westminster, especially parliament and the government, and for the protection of Great Britain and Ireland:
Decree:“I AM THE NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES”
“Therefore, God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2: 9-11)
“We decree that: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER, and that HIS NAME IS ABOVE EVERY OTHER NAME. AT HIS NAME EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW AND EVERY TONGUE CONFESS THAT “JESUS IS LORD”, TO THE GLORY OF GOD. WE DECREE THAT THE GOVERNMENT OF THE BRITISH ISLES IS ON HIS SHOULDERS!”
Aaronic Blessing: ‘The Lord bless you and keep you, The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you, The Lord lift up His countenance toward you and give you peace. Thus, we put His name upon you and He will bless you’ (Numbers 6:24-27).
“We bless the nations and islands of the British Isles with knowing and believing that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father, and we bless them with bowing the knee to the name of Jesus.”
Plus the prayer Jesus taught followed by a prayer of protection:
“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your Name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven; give us our daily ‘bread’ and forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sinned against us; lead us not to into testing but deliver us from the evil one, for Yours is the Kingdom, the Power and the Glory.
“Almighty Father, we come to You in the name of Your Son Jesus Christ, and in that mighty Name we break the power of every strategy and assignment sent against the British Isles and Ireland, and against ourselves and (names….).
“We pray the mighty covering of the Living Blood of Jesus Christ over ourselves (and named persons) villages, towns and cities; over our coastlands, seaports and airports; over our roadways, railways, waterways and ferries.
“We ask that You release the angelic host to protect us from every spiritual and terrorist attack – especially our landmarks and each member of the royal family person and their premises and in public.
“Lift each citizen above every circumstance and crisis. We affirm the finished work of Christ over all demonic forces and decree: no weapon formed against the plans and purposes for the British Isles and Ireland will prosper. We also decree: no longer will violence be heard in our land, or destruction within or at our borders. We bless the atmosphere to be charged with peace and order. Amen’” (Isaiah 54:17 & 60:18)
See Day 1 for scriptural principles of decrees and blessings, plus background.
Rosemary Piercy writes to me about a command she heard and its related vision:
‘I felt that the Lord woke me up early to pray for the UK (Tuesday 12th March); as I started I heard the command “Stand up”! The scriptures came to me – “When you have done all, stand” and “Stand still and you will see the deliverance the Lord will do”.
‘As I watched, I saw thousands of people standing up all over Britain, in a great wave; many people were concentrated in the north-east but also in Manchester and London; they went well up into Scotland and Wales, then down in the south west. I did not see Ireland in the picture. This does not seem to fit in with your picture/words about marching, but it was very clear indeed. I think of the song “Arise, a mighty army, we arise” – maybe this is a preliminary to marching. Have you had any other words along these lines?’
I replied yesterday, and followed up today with a couple of questions,
‘Terrific! This would fit in between what Nina saw of a group of lounging WWII fighter pilots awaiting “Scramble!” and N’s instant reaction to her stressing the importance of the image and date received, which he gave as though an imperative “March forth!” rather than factual figure, fourth of March. As you say, we need to stand up before we can do either of ‘scramble’ or ‘march’.
‘Also, there’s the difference of them being able to fly, like heavenly warriors of angels, and a ground-based army in that day’s word that I’d read earlier…’
‘Presumably the command and vision of people arising to stand refers to intercessors only? Or, all praying believers?? Or even – those who rise up in reaction to last night’s Parliamentary contempt for the people’s choice for Brexit???’
And so Rosemary responded,
‘Good questions! I feel strongly that it is for ALL praying believers – to stand up and be counted, and that it is not simply a reaction to our leaders’ disregard of the democratic process. I have been re-reading Ephesians 6, and was reminded of the command to stand (up) 3 times in the passage. We need to put our heads above the parapet regardless of the fact that the enemy will see us as well as God! Standing is an action that we need to take as we receive our “inheritance that will never perish, spoil, or fade”.’
As far as I’m aware Rosemary doesn’t use Facebook so may have been unaware of this which Veronika West had posted on Monday 11th; a precursor to what Rosemary heard and saw the next morning:
“AWAKENED TO LOVE: I SEE AN ARMY OF BURNING ONES SET ABLAZE WITH THE FIRES OF REVIVAL AND REFORMATION”…!
Early hours of this morning the Spirit of God woke me up from a very deep sleep and He spoke to me saying, “DAUGHTER LOOK AND SEE”, and as I heard those words suddenly a powerful vision opened up before me, where I saw what looked like a desert, a wilderness place, I could see heat waves rising up from the hot sands and then I heard these words, “LOOK AND SEE! WHO ARE THESE BURNING ONES COMING UP FROM THE WILDERNESS LEANING HEAVILY ON THE BELOVED!”, now as I listened and watched in the vision, suddenly I saw on the horizon what looked like a blazing forest fire which was sweeping across the hot sands with great momentum and acceleration, now as the raging fires drew closer and closer to me in the vision, suddenly I saw a large multitude of men, women and children who were SET ABLAZE WITH FIRE and like an army of burning bushes they moved in perfect unison across the land and then I heard these words, “THESE ARE THE BURNING ONES, NO LONGER WILL THEY BE CONTAINED, FOR THESE ARE APPOINTED DAYS OF GREAT AWAKENING, YES! AN AWAKENING TO LOVE, WATCH! FOR MY BURNING ONES ARE NOW ARISING AND ADVANCING ACROSS THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH CARRYING THE FLAME OF REVIVAL AND REFORMATION”!
As I came out of the Vision I began to pray fervently for the Nations and I heard the Spirit say, “DAUGHTER WATCH AND PRAY, FOR THIS IS THE SEASON OF THE SERAPHIM AND THE CHERUBIM, FOR MY BURNING ONES ARE NOW ARISING AND MY GLORY CARRIERS ARE NOW ADVANCING ACROSS THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH”…’
Then came confirmation for Rosemary in this of Wednesday 13th from Veronika:
WATCH…ITS BEGINNING TO TAKE PLACE IN THE EARTH, THE TIME IS NOW..!
I hear the Spirit of God say, “WATCH FOR THE TIME IS NOW, MY ECCLESIA WILL COME TOGETHER IN GREATER UNITY, POWER AND AUTHORITY, WATCH AS MY ECCLESIA ARISES AND ADVANCES IN THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH, WATCH FOR NOW A DIVINE CONVERGENCE IS TAKING PLACE BOTH IN THE HEAVENS AND ON THE EARTH, FOR THAT WHICH CAUSED DIVISION AND STRIFF SHALL NO LONGER STAND, WATCH! FOR I SAY TO YOU, THIS IS THAT WHICH HAS BEEN PROPHESIED BY MY FAITHFUL PROPHETS, RESTORATION AND DIVINE REFORMATION HAS NOW BEEN BIRTHED IN THE EARTH”,says God
“FIRESTORM, FOUR WHIRLWINDS AND THE FOUR FACES OF GOD…!
I saw a firestorm, four whirlwinds and the four faces of God!
In the early hours, I had a powerful prophetic encounter that I would like to share with you. I ask that you read carefully and prayerfully.
There is a sudden supernatural shift happening in the realms of the Spirit in this hour. Get ready, for there is an emerging Army of Mighty Warriors coming forth from a Firestorm of Glory. Watch, for the manifestation of greater signs, wonders and miracles!
In this encounter, I was taken onto a battlefield. The sky was filled with the colours of deep red and orange, and I heard the words, “The dawning of a New Day.”
The atmosphere was filled with great expectation and anticipation. I could see the mighty warriors of God standing at attention on the battlefield, each one strategically positioned in their respective ranks. I could see these mighty warriors were waiting!
I knew by divine revelation, that these warriors were “Waiting for heaven to touch earth.”
Then suddenly, a strong and mighty wind began to blow upon the battlefield. I watched as four mighty whirlwinds began to form in the distance. Suddenly I could see the Four Faces of God within the four whirlwinds.
I saw the face of the Eagle within the whirlwind, that came from the north. Then I saw the face of the Ox that came in the whirlwind from the west. Then the face of Man that came in the whirlwind from the south. Lastly I could see the face of the Lion that came in the whirlwind from the east.
Now the whirlwinds moved in unison, causing an immense dust storm to rise up from the ground, which filled the atmosphere with an even greater expectation and anticipation among the warriors of God.
Suddenly a bright flash of lightning lite up the horizon and I could see what looked like the rising sun. It was a large ball of fire which moved swiftly across the skies and towards the battlefield of warriors.
I watched closely as the mighty four whirlwinds moved upon the ball of fire, now I could see what looked like the Four Faces of God within the ball of blazing fire. The four whirlwinds seemed to push and propel the fiery ball forward.
I watched as the ball of fire drew nearer and nearer the battlefield. Suddenly, I could feel an intense heat from the ball of fire as it moved upon the battlefield of warriors. I could hear the shouts of great rejoicing.
Suddenly my eyes were illuminated by God’s Word and Truth and I instantly received a new measure and a greater level of ‘seeing’ and ‘understanding.’ Then, like a sharpened arrow, I felt the Fire and Power of God deeply penetrate the deepest parts of my heart.
There was an instant supernatural ignition and exchange that took place deep within me.
My focus became clearer, and now I watched as the fire ball moved upon the mighty warriors of God.
I could clearly see the Four Faces within the Four Whirlwinds within the Fire. I could see the Fire of God in the Whirlwind of the Ox, touching the mighty warrior Evangelists, igniting and empowering them with a greater power, strength and Authority for the end-time harvest.
Then I watched the fire of God within the whirlwind of the Eagle, now touching the mighty warrior Prophets, each one receiving greater insight, deeper revelation, accurate and precise vision. I watched as the fire of His glory touched their lips, and like hot coals they glowed brighter and brighter.
Then I watched as the fire of God within the whirlwind of Man touched the mighty warrior Shepherds. The fire deeply penetrated their hearts giving them a new level of humility, meekness, power and compassion.
Then I saw the fire of God in the whirlwind of the Lion touching the mighty warrior Apostles each one received a new level and a greater measure of divine wisdom, authority, might, humility and revelation.
Then I watched as these fiery, burning and Anointed ones moved together in perfect unity. There were none greater than the other. Shoulder to shoulder, and shield to shield they advanced and moved forward as one mighty army. They moved, marched and advanced forward with one purpose, one vision and one mission.
Their hearts were set ablaze with the Fires of His Glory and Power. I hear, “These are the mighty warriors that are now emerging in greater power and greater authority upon the earth”!
Thank you to Carolyn Stewart for providing this transcript, as published at Glasgow Prophetic Centre and UK Prophetic Words, of this most insightful, encouraging word Emma Stark broadcast in her latest of three videos on Brexit. Footnotes give my brief weighing (1Cor 14:29) of this exceptionally significant prophetic word that Emma received on 27th February whilst with a group of prophets in Belfast:
DOES GOD HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY ABOUT BREXIT?
Where is the solution to Brexit, the Backstop and the Irish Border?
‘I felt that God gave me a really significant word about Brexit in the last handful of days, and a real God intervention and a heads up for what God is going to do in what looks like a chaotic situation. I really want to share this with you, particularly for those of you who are intercessors. I feel like God has given me something that I’m asking you, would you stand with me and would you pray? Would you come into a place of agreement of some of the things God is saying that needs to happen? So I am really asking for your opt-in right now and your anointing to partner with what God is revealing through His prophet.
‘I was standing in Belfast last week. Of course, I am Northern Irish; that’s where I was born and raised. Cut me and I bleed of that land, and I am passionate about Ireland, both north and south of the border.
‘I heard the Lord say this, when I asked him this question: “Where is the solution to Brexit? God, what are You saying about the Backstop and the Irish border?”
‘And the Spirit of the Lord said this to me, “Emma, the solution is in Dublin.” Well, I was shocked. And the Lord said, “There is a tangled ball of wool that is sitting in the Parliament building in Dublin, and the end of that ball of wool is in the hands of Leo Varadkar. Now Leo Varadkar is the Taoiseach, or the leader or the prime minister in Ireland, and they of course meet in Dublin. The Lord said this to me: “I put an anointing on Leo Varadkar, and it has been a dormant anointing.” But the Lord says that He made him one who would challenge the rules. He made him one who would challenge the status quo. He made him different from other leaders that had arisen within Ireland. And the Lord says, “I even put a subversive anointing on him, that he would subvert the status quo.” The Lord says he used that subversive anointing not for good purposes. But the Lord says, “Right now, like I grabbed hold of Cyrus, I am about to grab hold of that man’s hand, and I am anointing his subversion that it may be turned to subvert the kingdom of darkness and even bring about a righteous solution.”
‘And then I said to the Lord, “Well what is he to do?” and the Lord said, “He is to reach out his hand to Arlene Foster,” who as you know is the previous First Minister, the leader of the DUP in Stormont, which is the devolved parliament in Northern Ireland. And the Lord said, “I gave her a spirit and an anointing of determination, but she too didn’t always know how to use that gifting for my glory.” And the Lord says, “I am calling on what I put in her of determination, and I am going to call that out to be used for my Kingdom, and Leo Varadkar’s subversiveness. And the Lord says, “I am going to enable them to turn and to be a man and a woman who face each other.” And the Lord says, “I will put an ability for them to look at each other, see each other, dialogue with each other, communicate with each other.” And the Lord says, “I will strike them with holy lightning that there may be a resolution and a new relationship that has grown between the North and the South on the landmass of Ireland. And the Lord says, “That subversion and that determination will start to work on a plan.” And I heard the Lord say, “They will be in a coalition.” I am not talking politically. I am not talking about divided Ireland. I am not talking about united Ireland. Don’t hear this through any agenda or political mindset. I heard the word “coalition” in terms of a new relationship, a new ability to see and understand each other, a new ability to figure some things out between each other. And I heard the Lord say this – it was so clear – He said, “Brexit is out of Time”. I don’t mean like it’s running out, because we know it’s running out in terms of the end of March – but it is “out of Time” of the order of God. And the Lord says, “Do not fear, even if there is a delay. Do not fear, if that looks like increased chaos.” For the Lord says, “There is an order, and I will start in Ireland,” And they will form such a new understanding, and a new relationship with one another, that the Lord says, “It will be a model for what I want to do in nations and how they will relate to each other, even across the continent of Europe and beyond.” But the Lord says, “I am beginning a work of reconciliation and seeing each other and solution in Ireland.”
‘And the Lord says, “That is going to even have an effect on Brexit.” The Lord says, “Let Ireland be solved first before Brexit can be unpacked and fully realised.” And you can see God working in an order around the nation, from Ireland in the south, up to Northern Ireland and across, down into Westminster. And the Lord is saying in this hour that we are to pray, even for the EU and even for Theresa May and Westminster, to give Ireland space and to not dominate in that place so that the Lord can raise up these leaders to see each other. And the Lord said this: “Oh intercessors, you have prayed about the Irish border, you have gone back and forward along it.” And the Lord says, “You have bound every demon that you knew how to bind, and you have been diligent and faithful.” But the Lord is even saying now, “You did not replace that which you bound with the solution from my throne room.” The Lord says, “It is a time for the intercessors to start to say over the Irish border, ‘God has a solution’, and to release the solution; not just to bind and limit that which is nasty, but to put a higher decree in place, an overarching decree that says, ‘There will be a relational solution’.” And the Lord says, “I need your decrees and your agreement that MY relational order will come even into that landmass”, says the Lord.
‘I want to keep you up to date with some of the things I prophesied over Brexit before (videos 2017 and 2018). The Lord is saying, “Look, there is going to be a disconnect from Europe, so that there can be a reconnection.” And the Lord says that in two to three years we will be in mass revival on the continent of Europe and within the British Isles. And the Lord says, “I am making some situations [to] bring nations to their knees right now, and even a humbleness to come within the British Isles”, says the Lord, “that I may break the spirit of Leviathan off you and your pride.” For the Lord says, “I cannot come near the British Isles while there is pride, because I am held by my word that says I must resist those who are proud.” But the Lord says, “As there is humbleness and as confusion even opens a door to a hands-up that says, ‘I don’t have an answer’” – and as that brings a sense of “Oh God! We need to look to you outside of ourselves” – the Lord says, “Then Leviathan breaks”, and then that revival rushes towards us.
‘The Lord also said this to me, that there had been a robbing of the DNA of the British Isles, and that the British Isles for centuries had been known for leadership in the earth. And yes, sometimes they got that just disgustingly wrong, and sometimes there was weeping for the need for repentance. But the Lord says, “In the middle of all of that, you forgot”, says the Lord to the British Isles, “that in your very core, in your very DNA, there was the ability to make a leadership role in the nations.” And Lord is saying that the nations are crying again for the British Isles to raise themselves up, and to know what leadership is. And the Lord says, “I am healing and restoring leaders, the length and breadth of the British Isles, in this hour.” And the Lord says, “If you want to know how to pray, you pray for Leo Varadkar in Dublin, you pray for Arlene Foster in Belfast.” And the Lord says, “There is going to come such a fresh template of how leaders across borders work with each other that it will heal the backstop, it will heal Ireland, it will propel Brexit to come forth in the right way. It will model a new way of relationship for the landmass of Europe.” And the Lord says, “It will enable even revival to come, as there is a domino effect from Ireland.” And so the Lord is saying, “Take hope. I am on My throne. I know what I am doing, but I need your agreement,” says God.
‘Why? You’ve got to understand why God wants our agreement. You see, in Amos 3 it says, ‘Surely the sovereign Lord does nothing before revealing it to his servants the prophets’. God is saying, “I won’t act until you’ve seen it. I won’t act until you’ve heard it and agreed it.” Well now I am telling you what God is saying, and I want you just to raise your hands where you are and say, “Oh God, we decree a solution of relationship over Ireland. Oh God, we decree that leaders that don’t even acknowledge each other fully are going to start to come together in a new relationship. We agree even that Theresa May and the European Union back off, so that there is a space for a healing in this land.”
‘And let me tell you what else I thought the Lord was asking us to pray. I grew up in Northern Ireland. I grew up in the troubles. I know there’s a spirit of violence. You know there’s a spirit of violence there. But that violent spirit says this: “Defend yourself! Defend your people! Look after your own! Destroy those who come against you!” But when I stood on Northern Ireland last week, I felt that violent spirit had changed and it was now a blood-thirsty spirit, and that is one beyond violence, where the blood-thirsty spirit doesn’t just say, “Defend your own”. It says, “Decimate everywhere. Just have carnage as far as the eye can see.” I heard that spirit in the land, and I want you to agree with me right now that there will be peace in Ireland, north and south. There will be peace in England and Wales and Scotland, and all of the British Isles and all of the islands that that includes, that there will be in this day a striking of the ground with the spirit of the government of God and the increase of his peace. We need to decree together that there will not be a return to violence or blood-thirstiness. For the Lord is saying, “I want to work with you that there may be peace,” and the Lord says, “Now is the time not just to bind the violence, but to say, “Let peace be established for multi-generations in this hour”.’
RB Footnotes:
The Personal Prophetic Trail section that follows my previous posting of Emma’s video doesn’t give the finer details of the first ‘coincidental’ confirmation over my musing upon the possibility of this year being spiritually connected to what I’d learned in 2012 (because 7 years have elapsed since we’d started blessing Britain AND Ireland). The details show the Lord’s hand pointing me by means of a ‘divine appointment’ to the above UK-Eire-EU issue, as follows:
During morning coffee I didn’t mill around in the large foyer with others but returned to my chair in the conference hall to quietly sip the drink. A different person to the woman I’d seen sitting behind me came to sit in that chair to await her friend. I turned and asked if she’d had far to travel to Windsor. This sister in the Lord replied she’d flown from Belfast and I recalled having seen her introduced on the platform a few months ago as a pastor from Dublin.
Subsequently, returning to my musing upon 2012+7=2019, I wondered if there may be any relevance in that brief chat. In answer I ‘saw’ on my mental image of the map we pray over daily, a tube-like white line between Dublin and Belfast, as though indicating a connection.
The reference to Ireland’s significance in the Lord’s plans for revival reiterates what Dr Sharon Stone brought in her Clarion Call of 2013 to the British Isles, “In speaking into Ireland it doesn’t take a genius to see that’s the western gate of revival for the UK. That means that if God is moving from the west eastwards they’re carrying something that those in England have need of…”
Politically, let’s remind ourselves that Leo Varadkar is on record as having seen no problem over Ireland’s border with Northern Ireland and the UK being outside the EU, as in Prophecy Progress Check #1 – Eire, UK & EU.
Monday 4th March saw the start of Lent Week of Prayer at the church we attend. One of its aims is to refocus our lives on all God has for us and give an opportunity to get rid of clutter hindering our relationship with Him. To help us in this, thematic displays had been set up for contemplative prayer in the chapel. We arrived at the same time as the rector for Monday evening’s prayers, but after having led a long worship and prayer session on his guitar he needed to leave for an appointment…
However, Nina’s email of Tuesday morning updated him on what happened…
WELL, WHAT NEXT!
‘Dear Val, Thank you for the wonderful worship yesterday evening. It was very special. Then you left the 3 of us and then……….!!!!!!!!
‘We carried on praying for a short while and then I had an extraordinary picture which I shared with Richard and N because I knew it was important.
‘It was in black and white and was a scene from an old war movie. The pilots were sitting around outside, by the Nissan huts, waiting for the alarm call so they could jump to attention and get into action [‘Scramble!’ thinks Richard].
‘As I spoke this N suddenly said, “That was the Battle of Britain!” Britain is in another battle right now so we prayed on for a short while. Then I said, “We need to remember the picture and the date”. Suddenly N said, “March Forth!”
‘He didn’t say it is the fourth of March or March the fourth, he said “March Forth!” [Each of us intuitively knew that difference.]
‘By then we were standing and agreed that as members of The Lord’s Army we needed ears to hear His clarion call and ACT!
‘Richard added that this all confirms what he’d read earlier on the very same topic’!
‘The Spirit of God says, “WATCH AND PRAY BELOVED, STAY ALERT AND PAY ATTENTION FOR THE WOLF IS AT THE DOOR, YES! THE ENEMY COMES TO ROB, STEAL AND DESTROY IN THIS HOUR….!”
‘FRIENDS, I SEE THE POWERS OF DARKNESS INCREASE IN THIS HOUR, BUT I ALSO SEE AN INCREASE, ACCELERATION AND MANIFESTATION OF GREATER GLORY, SUPERNATURAL POWER, GREATER AUTHORITY, SIGNS, WONDERS AND MIRACLES TAKING PLACE ACROSS THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH.
‘I SEE AN UNSTOPPABLE AND AN UNQUENCHABLE FIRE OF THE HOLY GHOST MOVING SWIFTLY ACROSS THE NATIONS, THE POWERS OF EVIL AND DARKNESS CANNOT AND WILL NOT HINDER NOR DIMINISH IT.
‘I SEE A MIGHTY ARMY OF RADICAL, FEARLESS FREEDOM FIGHTERS RISING UP IN THIS HOUR THEY ARE NOT DETERRED NOR DISTRACTED BY THE SCHEMES OF SATAN. THEIR POWER, STRENGTH, SKILL AND STEALTH COMES FROM BEING DEEPLY ROOTED AND ESTABLISHED IN CHRIST JESUS. THE WEAPONS OF THEIR WARFARE ARE NOT CARNAL BUT POWERFUL TO THE PULLING DOWN OF EVERY STRONGHOLD AND DEMONIC STRUCTURE IN THE LAND.
‘THESE ARE THE RADICAL ONES, ANOINTED AND APPOINTED BY GOD TO PURSUE, PUSH BACK, OVERTHROW AND OVERTAKE EVERY POWER OF DEATH AND DESTRUCTION, THEY WAR NOT FROM THE REALMS OF DOUBT, FEAR AND TIMIDITY BUT THEY WAR IN THE REALMS OF SUPERNATURAL FAITH, COURAGE, HUMILITY AND VICTORY, WITH THE TWO EDGED SWORD IN THEIR MOUTHS THEY ARE WISE WITH THEIR WORDS ONLY SPEAKING FORTH LIFE, LIBERTY AND VICTORY.
‘THEY WALK IN THE SHOES OF PEACE AND PROSPERITY, THEY COMMAND HEAVENLY ANGELS TO COME AND TO GO, THEY LOVE NOT THEIR OWN LIVES EVEN UNTO DEATH, THESE ARE THE GLORY CARRIERS OF HEAVEN, NEW LIFE, HEALING, HOPE AND MANIFEST PROMISE FLOWS FORTH FROM THEIR BELLIES, THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM AND THE FEAR OF THE LORD GOES BEFORE THEM MAKING STRAIGHT THEIR PATHS AND ILLUMINATING THEIR WAY, ACCELERATED AND MOBILISED BY THE SPIRIT OF MIGHT AND POWER THESE BRAVE HEARTS MOVE WITH GREAT ACCURACY AND WITH SPIRITUAL VISION AND PRECISION THEY TAKE THE LAND.
‘I SEE SATAN AND HIS DEMONS FLEE IN A THOUSAND DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS WHEN THESE GLORY CARRIERS STEP UPON THEIR TERRITORIES, THESE DEMONS OF DARKNESS KNOW THEY CANNOT STAND AGAINST THE POWER OF THEIR UNITY AND AGREEMENT IN THE SPIRIT.
‘LISTEN!! I HEAR THE SOUND OF GREAT VICTORY AND JUBILEE!!’
The Spirit of the Lord says, “Arise, arise, arise and put on the armour of the Lord. My children, I desire for you to become a mighty army in my name. Listen to the voice of your God because I have not hidden you in the shadows. I have called you to shine and to let the world see who I truly am. Let them see who I have called you to be – my ambassadors, truth tellers, a mighty and holy nation, miracle workers in my name, atmosphere changers, and carriers of my presence and glory. You are gateways for heaven to move through. Now arise and be bold; take hold of the authority that I have given you. Truly, I say to you ARISE.”
Isaiah 60:1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you.
Coincidentally or by ‘God-incident’, this is timely as indicated by – and ‘AMEN’ to – Jarrod’s closing prayer, because in personal notes to Fulfilled Prophecies #39 & #40 I linked to my night-vision of Sept 2011, as recounted in Father Let Your Kingdom Come!
While in prayer today I sensed God speaking into the nation at this time of political upheaval (Brexit) and change. Sorry if any of these concepts offend anyone’s political views, but let me simply explain what I saw: I saw Great Britain as a tree that once stood alone, but was now hidden among a…
My readers may find this a useful concise refresher of the main points following Hanson’s in-depth briefing, as summarised by NEO in A Failed Coup. Thank you Nicholas.
I am on the record as believing that President Trump is a Cyrus-like figure. He had the courage to move the American embassy to Jerusalem, recognising the city as the capital of Israel. Actions of such significance on behalf of God’s people and God’s covenants seldom go unchallenged by the powers of darkness. Today Richard’s Watch shared a prophetic word from Veronika West about the spiritual assault on the President. I advise any reader to always weigh a prophetic word, regardless of the source. Nevertheless, the basic premise of Veronika’s post should be uncontroversial – there is a spiritual war against the current President.
The Abortion Front
This President favours a Supreme Court that tends towards originalism or conservatism. This kind of jurisprudence is an enemy of the pro-abortion lobby for two reasons. Firstly, it returns the question of abortion to the States’ legislatures. A number of States are controlled…
Posted approx 8am today on her Ignite Ireland Ministries facebook, Veronika West reports the following, which as with all prophetical matters is for your weighing and discernment with the Lord and scripture:
AN URGENT DREAM CONCERNING PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP; “WATCH FOR THE DEN HAS BEEN PREPARED AND THE BLOOD-THIRSTY LIONS LIE IN WAIT””…!
I come to you today, it’s 3am in the morning I have woken from a powerful dream concerning President Donald Trump where I was shown a GREAT UPHEAVAL THAT IS COMING IN THE DAYS AHEAD, in this dream I found myself standing in a dark dungeon type place and the SMELL OF THE AIR IN THAT PLACE IS HARD TO DESCRIBE BUT IT WAS THE SMELL OF BLOOD AND OF LIONS (having been brought up as a child in a Wildlife Conservation I KNOW THE SMELL OF LIONS), it is a SMELL SO DISTINCT THAT IT IS A SMELL THAT IS UNMISTAKABLE…! As I stood in that dark place my nostrils filled with the smell of (blood and acid like tones), I BEGAN TO FEEL FEAR RISE UP WITHIN ME, then suddenly I saw a bright light appear round about me and an Archangel of the Lord stood before me in the dream and spoke to me saying, “FEAR NOT, for you have been brought to this place for what is about to take place”, as I listened suddenly the dream shifted I was taken high above the WHITE HOUSE WHERE I WAS SHOWN A SMALL OPEN WINDOW (which faced SOUTH) AND AS I LOOKED THROUGH THE OPEN WINDOW I SAW PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP KNELT DOWN UPON HIS KNEES LOOKING UP TO HEAVEN, and as I looked at him I saw A GREAT BATTLE TAKING PLACE OVER THE LAND and, as I watched him cry out to the Lord, suddenly I saw the Archangel GABRIEL STANDING ABOVE HIM WITH A FLAMING SWORD LIFTED HIGH ABOVE THE PRESIDENT’S HEAD AND I WATCHED AS THE BLADE OF THE SWORD TOUCHED HIM AS IF HE WERE BEING KNIGHTED and then I saw President Donald Trump STAND TO HIS FEET and suddenly I saw a MANTLE FALL UPON HIM THAT FLOWED LIKE LIQUID GOLD, THE MANTLE OF GOLD COVERED HIM FROM HEAD TO TOE AND I WATCHED AS IT BECAME LIKE A BODY OF IMPENETRABLE ARMOUR, and the Angel of the Lord left him…! (I woke up)
As I woke up my body my covered in sweat and I was praying so loudly in the Spirit that my son was awoken.., as I reassured my son that all was well I began to feel A GREAT URGENCY TO PRAY FOR THE LAND OF AMERICA AND THE PRESIDENT as I began to cry out to the Lord the atmosphere was HEAVY, it felt as if I was WALKING IN THICK SAND, but as I prayed and warred in the Spirit suddenly the Spirit of God spoke to me saying,
“WATCH AND PAY ATTENTION, PRAY PRAY PRAY FOR THE NATION OF AMERICA AND FOR PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP FOR IT SHALL BE LIKE IN THE DAYS OF DANIEL WHEN MY FAITHFUL SERVANT WAS THROWN INTO THE LIONS’ DEN, WATCH! FOR THEY SHALL COME TOGETHER AND THEY SHALL CONSPIRE WITH ONE ANOTHER TO DESTROY THAT WHICH I HAVE DECREED AND THAT WHICH I HAVE DECLARED OVER THE LAND AND THEY SHALL LOOK TO CATCH HIM OUT AND THEY LOOK TO GRAB HOLD OF HIM TO UTTERLY DESTROY HIM, FOR SURELY I TELL YOU THE DEN HAS BEEN MADE READY AND THE HUNGRY LIONS NOW LIE IN WAIT”, says the Spirit of God.
“WATCH AND PRAY CALL A FAST FOR THEY SHALL COME TOGETHER AS ONE FROM THE LEFT AND FROM THE RIGHT, YES! THERE WILL BE THOSE WHO SHALL COME FROM THE RIGHT THAT SHALL SAY, “HOW CAN THIS BE”, BUT I TELL YOU MANY HEARTS WILL BE TURNED COLD BY A STRONG SPIRIT OF LIES AND DECEPTION, YES! EVEN A SPIRIT OF MURDER DWELLS IN THE MIDST OF THEM, FOR THEY HAVE HATCHED A PLAN AND THEY HAVE PUT TOGETHER A PLOT TO OVERTURN AND OVERTHROW THAT WHICH HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED. BUT LISTEN, STAY VIGILANT IN THIS HOUR, WATCH AND PRAY, FOR SURELY I TELL YOU AGAIN, JUST AS THE DAY THEY THREW DANIEL INTO THE LIONS’ DEN SO THEY SHALL THEY COME TOGETHER IN GREAT UNITY AND AUTHORITY IN THIS DAY TO THROW A PRAYING PRESIDENT INTO THE DEN OF HUNGRY LIONS. TELL MY PEOPLE IF THEY WILL LOOK TO ME AND CRY OUT TO ME IN THIS HOUR I SHALL SEND MY ANGELS OF PROTECTION INTO THE MIDST OF THEM, YES! INTO THE STORM OF RISING LIES AND FALSE ACCUSATIONS AND INTO THE MIDST OF THE ROARING LIONS AND THEIR BLOOD-THIRSTY MOUTHS SHALL BE SHUT CLOSED AND THAT WHICH WAS CONCEIVED IN THE WOMB OF DARKNESS SHALL NOT COME TO FULL TERM BUT SHALL SURELY BE FULLY ABORTED AND BROUGHT TO NOTHING”, says the Spirit of God.
“NOW WATCH, FOR I STAND OVER MY WORD TO PERFORM IT IN THIS HOUR AND IN THIS DAY, FOR THE NATION OF AMERICA SHALL SEE MY GLORY AND THEY SHALL SEE MY HAND MOVE IN MIGHTY AND YET MORE MYSTERIOUS WAYS IN THE DAYS AHEAD, FOR I HAVE SET MY SEAL UPON MY SERVANT AND A MANTLE OF KINGSHIP AND HE SHALL BECOME MY TRUMPET FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE IN THE LAND AND NO MAN SHALL TOUCH MY ANOINTED AND LIVE”,says the Spirit of God.

In view of Revd Dr Clifford Hill’s critique of the Day of Prayer at Wembley Arena on 26th January, and expressions of concern I’ve received from several people, I’m grateful to Dave Chapman and his wife for responding over the weekend to my request for a brief report of their impressions from the event, especially for permitting a wider publication of their personal observations, thereby adding to comments at ProphecyTodayUK.:
‘Richard, greetings in Jesus name.
‘I have to be honest and say I was surprised to see Dr Hill there. He was introduced as an old friend by David Hathaway.
‘I suppose I have seen him – rightly or wrongly – as a Jeremiah type, as opposed to an Isaiah type over the years. I’m sure it was good he was there. Clearly his endorsing the need for repentance was a fine one, though for me revival and repentance go hand in glove and each can follow the other! One black Pastor even shared that his/their church baptised 5,810 people last year, has 100 coming to Christ every Sunday (in London!) and was asked by the Police what they were doing or giving these people in that they’re so drastically reducing crime! He told them “We give them Jesus”!
‘I noted his remark on the day about the church in the 90’s falling about in laughter rather than repenting, in the morning. But the state of the church in that era certainly needed a baptism, or refreshment, and bringing into new things which we were very happy to join in with, in fact we went to Toronto to find out whether this was God or not in October of 94. We got in the river!
‘Personally, I found the Day to be the most significant gathering I have been in during my lifetime (incl 56 years born-again). In trying to quantify why, I’d say it was because of the embracing of the prophetic by all of the participators as a normal part of their ministry, and the spiritual warfare that took place. The latter mirrored the kind of approach we have been in whilst on some of our visits to Uganda. They just go for it ’til breakthrough, passionately, and with great endurance! It could be there were some there on the Day who would not want to be part of that next time! But we shall want to be there if possible.
‘As for the asking forgiveness of white to black and vice versa, personally that is not one I see as the problem so much as the issue of culture difference, which he mentions. It’s one of behaviour, approach or practice, style, and not colour itself. But hopefully the publicly and mutually given forgiveness worked something.
‘Of course, we have not replaced Israel and I wholeheartedly agree with him that Replacement Theology needs to be taken from the Body of Christ, root and branch.
‘Not sure why he had a go at the ‘NAR’ in this piece of his, and though it could easily be there are human weaknesses in practice in their make up, where the core of that is going, and what they stand for, in seeking transformation here on earth is definitely where we are at. Perhaps it’s what is needed to do away with the lack of vision he sees in the British charismatic and pentecostal churches he refers to!
‘I would suggest though, this difference can be to do with an eschatological stance over at what stage ‘’the Kingdom of God” (already here in our lives) can come in its fullest form, and Christ’s rule is possible in the earth now. Perhaps the one emphasis concentrates almost wholly on getting the church ready for the bridegroom (and their rapture), but the other on seeking to bring in Christ’s rule and reign now as a mighty ecclesia – like a John the Baptist preparatory ministry! The first stance can miss the great revival harvest, and the latter can step into a wrong understanding of authority and practice!
‘Nevertheless, David Hathaway said his friend Clifford Hill said to him before he left the Day, “I’ve been waiting for this gathering for 50 years”!’
PS: Thank you too, to Rosemary Piercy for commenting today via Thursday’s post:
‘Richard, did you know that Clifford Hill and David Hathaway have had a constructive meeting in which many difficulties were cleared up? I can’t speak on what happened at Wembley, because I was not there, but I do see that the basic premise of Prophecy Today’s concerns – that we are unlikely to have any sort of revival unless it is preceded by repentance – is Biblical. Clifford Hill himself recently wrote that he felt we are on the cusp of something life-changing, but that we still need the focus on repentance which is really hammered home in both the new and the old testament. Bless you lots!’
