Vision of eagle – role of ‘air supremacy’ in the harvest of souls

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

A ‘God-incidence’ struck last Thursday in connection with Dr Sharon Stone’s November mentoring day, and with what two attendees of that meeting were writing about on the same day last week > the necessity of gaining ‘air supremacy’!

Having arrived from Shaftesbury with a couple of friends on this month’s first Saturday, Simon Baddeley and I greeted one other in Caffe Nero over coffees bought en-route to  the meeting. There, they sat in the row behind me and he and I took extra special note of what Sharon’s associate was teaching on how to bring God’s Kingdom into secular society. We never spoke about it. And neither of us would have prophesied, let alone guessed, that we’d both write about a special aspect of it on the very same day!!

So on the 9th I blogged about Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan, referred to America’s involvement and closed by citing how a prophet’s example of changing the spiritual atmosphere to release the Kingdom of God may affect international diplomacy. (See ‘Kingdom Presence & Prophecy’ section in Paws 4 Thought: Kingdom-related Events Since Lightning Strike on Mecca’s Grand Mosque.)  After telling how personal envoys of Donald Trump received prophetic words the speaker likened intercessory prayer and prophecy to the military strategy of ‘air supremacy’.

On the 9th Simon wrote as follows under this published heading:

‘AS YOU GAIN AIR SUPREMACY YOU WILL SEE THE HARVEST YOU HAVE LONGED FOR’

‘I have had this word for a couple of weeks but I heard (the speaker) use the same phrase that I’d heard the Lord say, which has prompted me to release the word.:

27 October 2017:
‘I heard the sound of wings beating; they are huge wings and I can feel the strength that is being exerted as they are causing a large eagle to take off from the ground. As it rose up I saw that there were scars on its ankles where it had been shackled.

‘I heard the Lord saying, “I am freeing my prophetic voices” and then heard him say,

“As you gain air supremacy you will see the harvest that you have longed for, for as you win the battle in the air you will win the battle on the ground. You have been wondering why the harvest hasn’t come in but it has been because you have not won the battle in the air; when this battle is won you will see harvest you long for.”

Simon Baddeley, 9th November 2017

Simon is on the leadership team at Father’s House Shaftesbury and associated with Dr Sharon Stone at Christian International Europe, Windsor, and a few years ago gave me an accurate prophetic word.

The symbolism of the eagle is especially significant in relation to prophecy. It featured prominently in my first encounter with it in church circles, as told in Why Write/blog? and as my cyber-friend and blogger Tony Puccio in Tucson, Arizona, can attest too. Hence, a copy of the above picture by John Mark Long is hanging in our lounge.

Paws-4-thought: Kingdom-related events since lightning strike on Mecca’s Grand Mosque

Won’t you pause to ponder and praise the Lord with me? Let’s look back briefly and consider how the prophetic has a place in diplomatic circles.

After a lightning strike damaged Mecca’s Grand Mosque just over two years ago I’ve noticed many changes are under way in Saudi Arabia and the M-East generally. Developments indicative of major spiritual and diplomatic changes in Muslim leaders’ relationships with and their attitudes toward Christians, and Israel in particular, are quietly emerging.

Late in the year of the ‘blood-moon tetrad‘ (2015) I closed a series of posts on the years’ spectacular events with Why this September is special: Update #2 – Islam, which referred to a lightning strike in Mecca. Under the sub-head ‘Anniversary of 9/11 Atrocity’ I wrote:

‘On the anniversary of this century’s ‘day of infamy’ for New York, I noted another event seemed to connect into the collapse of the Twin Towers – as well as possibly being of God, or was it simply coincidence?  Lightning from a severe thunderstorm in Mecca struck a tall crane, which collapsed into the Grand Mosque thereby killing and injuring hundreds.

‘The construction engineer is quoted as saying, “It was an act of God”. A ‘very saddened’ British imam is reputed to have said, “It’s a blessing in disguise for those killed”. Four days later Saudi Arabia’s King Salman suspended contracts for the construction company, which is owned by the Bin Laden family!

‘Nevertheless, it ‘struck’ me that it’s a mirror ‘action replay’ on the 14th anniversary of the attack upon America, inspired as it was by the teachings and practices of the Meccan founder of Islam. That is, the very heart of the homeland and faith of those modern religious plotters and perpetrators was visited by an almost similar ‘toppling of a tower’. Also, my first impression was of The Almighty throwing down the gauntlet to confront satan. It’s far, far too uncanny not to be of poignant significance!’

The necessity of brevity means we’ll avoid itemising all subsequent events, except the notable one, and overlooking Crown Prince Muhammad’s radical reforms, your attention is drawn to recent events with his main Sunni Muslim allies of Egypt and Jordan.

This year’s change of US administration brought a complete sea-change not only in US-Arab diplomacy but also between USA and Israel. In his first foreign trip as the POTUS, Donald Trump addressed the 2017 Riyadh Summit in Saudi Arabia with a well-crafted speech. I re-blogged Joel Rosenberg’s report Trump boldly urges Muslim leaders to “drive out the terrorist and extremists” from their nations and mosques with this intro’:

‘Note Trump’s accurate description of Islamic terror as “battle between Good and Evil” (read prepared speech.)  All a mighty contrast to Obama’s deep rift with Riyadh in 2011 for betraying Egypt’s president Mubarak as a consequence of having invited the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood to his 2009 Cairo speech plus his back-channel dealings with Iran, as I reported just over 8 years ago in Today’s Importance in History (18 May 2009)!’

Christian Leaders Meet Middle-East’s Leaders

THEREFORE, with those two historic and highly significant events in mind let’s look at the latest news from Joel Rosenberg of his delegation of evangelical leaders’ top-level meetings in Egypt and Jordan. Tap/click links to read his reports in full:

1st Nov > Today in Cairo, Egyptian President Sisi Welcomed First-ever Delegation of Christian Leaders for 3-hour MeetingI had opportunity to meet Egyptian President el-Sisi in Washington in April.  What I could not say at the time was that…the President invited me to bring a delegation of Evangelical Christian leaders to visit him in Cairo, as well as to meet other senior Egyptian government officials and religious leaders. We’ve been working on this with his staff and advisors ever since, and today the project not only became a reality but was far more than I could possibly have hoped for…’ 

2nd Nov > Arab & Israeli media provide inside details of President el-Sisi’s historic meeting Evangelical Christian leaders in Cairo : …’Rosenberg, who was born to a Jewish father, told Haaretz that he was surprised at the level of interest expressed by the Egyptians in the delegation. “For the leader of Egypt to invite a Christian group to sit with him, discuss what he’s doing, talk about some of the difficult issues, that’s very impressive. I was hoping we could get ten minutes with him, and eventually we got almost three hours. From our side, the important thing was to show our appreciation for his fight against terrorism and extremism, for his commitment to peace and security ties with Israel, and for saving Egypt from the darkness of the Muslim Brotherhood.”…

8th Nov > Jordan’s King Abdullah II welcomes Evangelical Christian Delegation at Palace in Amman. Leaders thank King for advancing peace, fighting terrorism, caring for refugees and protecting Christians : ‘The meeting capped three days of meetings between Delegation members and senior government officials; Evangelical, Catholic and Muslim leaders in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan; and a moving visit to the Zaatari Refugee Camp near the Syrian border….’

Kingdom Presence & Prophecy

An insight upon another quite different aspect of spiritual diplomacy on behalf of the King of Kings was shared at Revd Dr Sharon Stone’s mentoring day last Saturday – it’s that of the office and function of God’s prophet.

As part of his material, the speaker for the first session taught about the student’s ‘work’ or assignment in the Lord as being the prime driver and energizer in their lives. As God created air for birds to fly through so He created His Kingdom in which His presence manifests and in which His saints are to function. Therein, Holy Spirit’s words and power comes to His people. Those anointed in the office of prophet are to create a Kingdom atmosphere in order to do their ‘work’.  So, without the presence of God any ministry is impossible. The question is, how’s this done in secular, even governmental, meetings?

In giving an example this speaker surprised us by telling about when he was invited to a meeting in Geneva, at the United Nations, and expected to prophesy to some government leaders. In meeting ‘the world’ with every race, creed and culture present, he realised the need to avoid jargon, or ‘churchese’.

‘Why? What am I trying to do? I’m trying to conquer an air-space; I’m trying to bring a Kingdom atmosphere into an already world-atmosphere. And there’s nothing more like world atmosphere, I promise you, than being at the UN…every ambassador, diplomat and delegate is there and I’m in front of a couple and of course I don’t know if they’re Christians. So I’m not going to say “Thus saith the Lord”. All I’m going to do is speak the Word of God  into the atmosphere and drop Truth, even in this place. And so I said (to X and Y), “I don’t know who you are but I see you’re in between two intense negotiations right now and I see…”

He gave the gathered students just a tiny peek of the bigger picture he was giving them about their personal work and how the Lord is helping. They then asked the prophet, “You don’t know who we are, do you?” – “No” he replied.

It turns out they’re Donald Trump’s envoys and the prophet continued: ‘(Then) as I’m speaking the atmosphere changes, all of a sudden the Kingdom of God came in and the next day – and the next day – there was momentum to minister to most of the diplomats…Why? Because we can change the atmosphere with the prophetic!’

The speaker explained how this principle works by alluding to the military strategy of  ‘air supremacy’ – so too, with prophecy and intercessory prayer.

God’s Perfect Plan will blow your mind!

In following up his inspiring theme of prophetical posts, Jarrod’s fresh emphasis on numbers mirrors what’s brought at the start of Prophetic Circuit Message #1: ie. “I will impart to My Prophets the ability to see clearly ‘My Numbers’, such as dates…”

From new book: The amazing enigma that is Daniel 11 — Part 1

Readers who relished Mark Davidson’s well-researched Daniel Revisited will enjoy studying this appetizer for his latest book…very well done Mark. (Opening his post overwrites my brief re-blog but if you wish to read in a new window tap/click here, and then continue reading Part 2 of 3, also in new, separate window.)

Mark Davidson's avatarTHE FOUR SIGNPOSTS

Daniel 11 has the potential to be very helpful in helping us understand much of what will happen in the Middle East during the Fourth Signpost and Tribulation.

The Problem

The question has been which parts of Daniel 11 were fulfilled in ancient times, and which parts apply to being fulfilled soon, in the end times? As you may know, if you read Daniel Revisited, Daniel 11 was mostly ignored, but it is very much a part of the new book.

My new book, using the ancient method of reading that was lost and found, I believe, has solved the question of Daniel 11 and it’s a bit of a surprise. I cannot show right now how this method arrives at what I reveal in these posts—that’s in the book—and I’ll show it later, but here I will show the result. The book will show how to use this reading…

Anglicans lead Wittenberg-style protest against ‘progressive’ bishops in their cathedrals.

gavinashenden's avatarGavin Ashenden

reformation 2

https://pjmedia.com/faith/anglicans-lead-martin-luther-style-grassroots-protest-against-progressive-christianity/

On the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, with Martin Luther nailing the 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenberg Castle Church, Anglicans nailed (or tacked) a similar protesting document to the doors of five Church of England cathedrals. Leaders in the movement told PJ Media they intend to push the Church of England back to the Bible and against a “secular” form of “soft socialism.”

“These postings of the Southwark Declaration represent a grassroots protest amongst both the orthodox laity and the clergy against the complacent selling-out of the Church of England to the current secular zeitgeist in the name of progressive Christianity,” Gavin Ashenden, a missionary bishop to England who rejected his ordination in the Church of England (and his position as special bishop to Queen Elizabeth II) this year, told PJ Media.

Each of the protesting Anglicans posted both the Southwark Declaration — a document…

Centenary of the Balfour Declaration

Prime Ministers meet prior to gala dinner – Credit: Peter Nicholls/PA Wir (tap for link)

Today marks the 100th anniversary of the British Government’s issuing a Declaration in support for ‘A National Home for the Jewish People’ (read draft versions at Balfour100). As expected, this morning’s edition of Koenig’s World Watch Daily includes this in its rolling headlines, ‘November 2nd 2017 is the 100th Anniversary of the Balfour Declaration’ and displays a copy of the document:

 

Now, does this anniversary have any relevance to prophecies in the Holy Bible?

In my opinion it’s prophetically signalled by the fact that Koenig has sandwiched the Declaration between two directly Gog-Magog relevant headlines – (above) ‘In Iran, Putin says dismantling nuclear deal is ‘not acceptable’.’ with a photo of his shaking hands yesterday with Iran’s President Rhouani – the headline shown below it reads as shown here with initial text describing the preceding Declaration item:

So we’re not only back to the Bible but also to what grabbed my attention in mid-1980s of Iran rehearsing (with its Sunni enemy troops!) the storming of Jerusalem whilst I was reading about it as a non-Christian in the secular book ‘The Invisible Hand’ (tap link to learn more).

Never forget Khameini’s belief that their full attack will facilitate the supernatural return of their ‘hidden imam’ or Mahdi – accompanied by the prophet Jesus!! (See Iranian Leader’s End-times Declaration)  LOL!  So let’s pray that Khameini is blessed with a similar personal revelation of the supreme power of Jesus Christ over Muslim’s god and prophet as had stunned the ex-Hezbollah Afshin David.

As well as being related to the prophecies in Ezekiel 38-39, those two items on World Watch tie in with the next headline on the surgical insertion of microchips under the skin in the web between the thumb and hand. This development was foretold in Revelation 13 wherein a demonic entity forces people to ‘receive a mark on right hand or forehead’ in order to buy and sell – just like holding a phone and waving it over a cash machine!

SO MILLENNIALS – BEWARE of enslavement to your devices!!

It’s so obvious that we’re quickly getting closer to the times of the battle of Armageddon and Jesus Christ’s return to put all demonic principalities and powers under His feet.

For more information consider Cranmer’s excellent historical/theological review of the Declaration…which concludes:

‘God told Abraham to “Go…”, and he responded “I will…”. God promised Abraham that his descendants would have a land – a geographic entity – and would be a blessing to all the nations of the earth. Israel is a fulfilment of that promise, or the covenant of blessing is as fragile and ephemeral as the desert covenant. Christians and Jews together can thank the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and praise the God and Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ for the restoration of the Jewish people to their homeland, because it was an eschatological promise that He would so. And if that was not a promise, then Jesus may not in fact be the long-promised Messiah, and our promised salvation is nullified in a plethora of meaningless metaphors.

Inaccurate BBC Balfour Declaration claim misleads audiences

The unreliability of Bigoted Brainwashing Clowns, aka BBC, as a source of information is demonstrated in this demolition of its ignorance. (See also recent post’s update alerting readers to BBC’s reporting less than 1% of terrorist attacks in Israel.)

Hadar Sela's avatarBBC Watch

On November 1st an article titled “Battle of Beersheba charge recreated for centenary” was published on the BBC News website’s Australia and Middle East pages.

In among an otherwise reasonable account of the commemoration of that First World War battle, readers found the following two paragraphs:

“The Battle of Beersheba led to the Balfour Declaration – the first time the British government endorsed the establishment of “a national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine.

While many Israelis believe it was the foundation stone of modern Israel and the salvation of the Jews, many Palestinians regard it as a betrayal.” [emphasis added]

The Battle of Beersheba took place on October 31st 1917. The Balfour Declaration was published just two days later on November 2nd 1917. Apparently though the BBC would have its audiences believe – as the use of the words “led to” indicates…

Time for the ‘house of cards’ to come down!

This prophetic promise comes courtesy of UK Prophetic Words and is very interesting in view of what Leisa Ebere and Charlie Shamp brought here and here from the Lord, and ‘Amen’ to Vida Caplin’s conclusion:

IT IS TIME FOR THE HOUSE OF CARDS TO COME DOWN

I saw in the spirit a house of cards and heard the old nursery rhyme ‘London Bridge is falling down‘ begin to play. A hand appeared and took a card from the bottom and the house fell. I looked at the cards as they lay in a heap and saw that they were all face cards, jacks, queens and kings. I then heard another old rhyme ‘Humpty Dumpty’ begin to play.

I asked Holy Spirit to reveal to me the meaning of the vision.

“This house of cards has been carefully built over the years by those in power, it has been shaken countless times, many have seen the cracks form but it has been fortified and strengthened by those who live within its walls. It is now the time for this house to come down and it shall be done by my hand. Many shall wonder at its falling and ask, How can this be? Should we not rebuild? Can we not establish again what once was? But it shall not come to pass for no man can put this back together.”

Again I pondered on Holy Spirit’s revelation but wondered why the two nursery rhymes had played. I was stirred to look at the words of each one. In London Bridge is falling down, the words repeat time and time again in each verse about rebuilding and making stronger the construction, even setting guards to watch over it. Yet when Humpty Dumpty falls the last line states, ‘All the King’s horses and all the King’s men, couldn’t put Humpty together again!’

God is going to pull down something very big and it will not be rebuilt. This is an empire work of corruption that Holy Spirit is speaking of. The house of cards speaks of something that has been intricately built over the years, the face cards speak of those who are in powerful positions or are known. More than that Holy Spirit has not revealed but we watch for the dramatic fall to happen.

Vida Caplin, Saturday 28th October 2017

PS 1: Blog’s facebook remarks 31 Oct:

>Rachel Elliston: ‘I’m not familiar with the tv series House of Cards (it is a box set yet to be watched), however I was amused to see it in the news on my fb feed in the context of being ‘deeply troubled’ and the series being cancelled… just days after I first saw this word. Funny how things in the spiritual and the ‘natural’, or ‘symbolic natural’ mirror each other, often in very odd ways’.

> My response: ‘…I too am unfamiliar with US-version of ‘HoC’ and didn’t follow last night’s and today’s news…but noted front-page spread of today’s Telegraph on scandals relating to UK MPs and US government (albeit fictitious in latter). So it’s not only a demonic version of the UK/US spiritual link but also an instance of the Lord exposing corruption in every sphere, as in examples of fulfilled prophecies (see FP #10 entries).

Having resigned from ministry in the Anglican communion Gavin’s incisive analysis cuts close to the ‘bone’. His wise opinion, and closing dream and vision, confirm the validity of a recent prophetic word and vision of pruning of CofE’s deadwood, and my earlier conversational piece about the SSM Bill. It’s exactly as Jesus foretold about these End-times being like the Days of Noah and of Lot!

Good Shepherd

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”

(Ephesians 6.12)

Jesus said,

“ If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.” (Mk 3.25).

There are at least two ways of doing theology; one primarily as a rational and intellectual act, and one by discernment of the Spirit.

Our Enlightenment traditions are very comfortable with the first, but Churches that look to the Holy Spirit rather than the nous or the human mind, need to be able to exercise the gift of the Holy Spirit called in the New Testament, ‘discernment.’

This is an exercise not in the cerebralness of rationality, of which we have had a great deal, but in spiritual discernment; which can only be done by the twice-born, and…

Charlie Shamp prophecies on the UK’s Awakening – #3

From part #2 – An hour later, after bathing in the Spirit’s presence, Charlie speaks about the power and glory of what the Lord’s doing through Capstone church and then says (from 2hr 51min):

LONDON AND ENGLAND – SHAKINGS AND RUMBLINGS OF AN AWAKENING

“I am telling you tonight, under the power of the prophetic, that there is a performance that’s coming across this city of London, that the hand of God is coming upon you, London. Not just East London, but I am telling you the ENTIRE CITY! The hand of the Lord. The hand of the Lord. And you say, ‘What’s the purpose? What’s the point? What’s the point of tarrying in an upper room?’ It’s because you have been HOLDING THE NATION IN YOUR HEART; OVERSHADOWING EVEN THE CITY, AND THE LORD IS GOING TO STRETCH OUT HIS HAND. He’s going to stretch out his hand and begin to release supernatural performances, Kingdom demonstrations, supernatural releases of the Spirit of God, on the street corners. And…in witches covens, and witch covens will bow their knee to Jesus Christ! Yeah…Drug dealing and prostitution will shut down by the power of God…I’m telling you, there is a hungry body that is going to taste and see the Kingdom of God like never before…

“Lift your hands, I’m prophesying over England:
Even Psalm 68:8 – The earth shook. the Heavens also dropped at the presence of the Lord. Even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God in Israel.

“There is a prophetic power that’s going to come in this hour that is going to begin to RIP OPEN WHOLE REGIONS. Whole regions are going to begin to receive the fire, the oil and the glory. The fire, the oil and the glory. The FOG of GOD (part #1 refers). And there’s even going to be; the Lord told me over the next several years there are going to be shakings. There are going to be shakings that are going to take place, even across London and across England. Shakings – shakings across this nation in the physical, in the physical. The Lord is going to shake the natural earth. I am not talking about massive or major earthquakes; I am talking about shakings that are going to be sizeable. People won’t be harmed, but there will be sizeable shakings and rumblings of an awakening that is taking place across the nation. I prophesied this in 2015 where I saw that there was going to be shakings and rumblings. And I’m telling you, the awakening is happening even now. And the presence of God, as it comes down, the earth is going to begin to shake; the shaking; the shaking, the shaking. There is a shaking that is going to happen. And it’s going to be a sign of the awakening; there’s going to be a sign of the awakening of the Spirit of God across the land. He is going to begin to awaken people out of religious churches. He is going to cause them to move out of the dead, dying body and move in to the living Kingdom. He is going to cause them to get out of the place of sitting in the pew, and moving into the performance of the Spirit of God, and the shakings and rumblings are going to happen across England. There’s going to be shakings. There’s going to be shaking and rumblings that are going to transpire. And it will be a sign of the presence of God dropping down on this nation.

“Even in the City of London, I see that there’s going to be a shaking, a shaking. And it will be a sign of God’s hand coming down, His presence dropping down, stretching out His hand to perform signs and wonders and miracles. Not through just one; not through just two or three; not just through one or two or three; but the Lord is going to begin to move upon the many. God is releasing an Army, an Amy that will carry the frequency of heaven, the worship and praise and adoration of the Kingdom and they will begin to move into demonstration of power, and the land is going to shake, the earth is going to move. It will be a shock to many.

“What God is going to do in awakening in the UK is going to shock Europe. What God is going to do in these fiery islands is going to shock, is going to shock, even Europe, into a place that they will not be satisfied with humanistic teaching and religion and tradition any longer, but they’ll rise up and recognise that there’s more; there’s more; there’s more; there’s more; there’s more, there’s more.

“What’s going to come out of the UK is going to begin to spark something even in the United States of America, and cause even greater, in a sense, if I could say, a jealousy, a jealousy, but a holy jealousy, that says, “You can’t have it without us. That says you can’t just have it in the UK – we want it over here! And I am telling you THE FIRE IS GOING TO JUMP, IT’S GOING TO JUMP, IT IS GOING TO JUMP BACK AND FORTH, BACK AND FORTH, BACK AND FORTH, for the Lord is CREATING AN ARC BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES and the UNITED KINGDOM. HE IS UNITING THEM IN THE SPIRIT. HE IS BUILDING AN ARK OF HIS PRESENCE AND POWER.”

Amen.

Charlie Shamp prophecies on the UK’s Awakening – #1

Thank you to the Lord and to Carolyn Stewart for painstakingly transcribing most of Charlie’s delivery upon returning to Capstone Church, Ilford, Essex, on 19th October.  Watch Capstone’s Facebook video (opens in new window), scroll to 1:37:00 mark for the start of Charlie’s greeting and then prophesying as recorded below…

Charlie Shamp

The London Awakening, week 17 day 2 archive (not in new window)

THE LORD IS UNITING THE UK FOR THE FIRE OF HEAVEN TO BREAKOUT

“Many of you know that personally I’ve been contending just for, not even just revival, but for an awakening to hit the UK. You know, revivals usually last three to five years but an awakening will last for an entire generation, up to 50 years!

“And I believe that the Lord is uniting the UK right now – and I don’t just mean through politics, but I mean through the Spirit of God; that the Lord is uniting these islands for the wildfires of heaven to break out; for the Kingdom of God to invade every part of this nation, across every, every part of it; that there won’t be a place where the presence of God is not breaking out, where the power of the Holy Spirit is not evident, where signs and wonders and miracles are not just a part of our everyday life.

“I am telling you right now,  that there is a prophetic momentum that is happening in this nation right now that is unstoppable. There is an acceleration that is happening – and I am already starting to prophesy just underneath this mantle that’s here tonight – but there is an acceleration in the prophetic destiny of this nation. And I’m telling you that no devil in hell, no satanic system, no agenda from the enemy is going to be able to stop what God is going to do. Because the Lord is uniting a body.

“And I’m telling you, the united body is going to walk across this United Kingdom and the power of the Holy Spirit is going to be put on display by men and women of God that are set ablaze – sons and daughters of the Kingdom – moving in demonstration and power of the Spirit that is an unstoppable force – unstoppable force! Hallelujah!”

Charlie then briefly tells a little of what he’s been getting from the Lord during recent travels and returning to Britain since last year – “I recognise that the Lord has a destiny for this nation”. Coming up the steps he felt the overpowering waves of the Presence in the upstairs sanctuary at Capstone church – “You know ,it’s one thing to see a thing prophetically and then to experience it!” – he continues:

THE LORD IS SHIFTING THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE UK

“I was in Perth, Australia, earlier in the year; I believe it was in July.  I was taken to a tower that’s there in the city.  They brought me there to just kind of sight-see, and there’s a tower there in Perth, and there’s these bells that are there, in the city.  And they’re from England – they are actually from St Martin-in-the-Fields [in Trafalgar Square RB]. They were rung during some of the greatest achievements and greatest victories of England.  They are over there and they were transported over to the nation of Australia, in the city of Perth.

“It Is Time”

“And the Lord began speak to me as I went back to my hotel, back to the place where I was staying.  I got caught up in a vision.  And I saw Big Ben and I saw in the spirit the Lord was going to cause a sign and a wonder to come from Big Ben; that it would be a sign, because I’d been walking out this thing that I prophesied last year…and what God was saying, that we were going to have to walk through for a season in the UK, but that there was going to be a great awakening that was going to come.

“And, the Lord told me – in this vision, I was seeing Big Ben – and the Lord told me, he said I’m going to cause a sign and a wonder to come; a sound that’s going to come, and I’m going to silence my enemies.

“And as I was in this encounter, suddenly, like a fog – a fog began to come down.  And a lot of times you think a fog is just something that’s not good.  And the Lord said, ‘It’s the London fog’.  And I said, ‘London fog?’ I said, ‘Oh!’ and He said; ‘It’s the fog of my presence’.

“I said, ‘Lord, what’s that?’ He said: ‘It’s the fire, the oil and the glory, and where the enemy has tried to come in and blind the people, cloud their minds, I am releasing my fog and I’m shifting the atmosphere of the UK; I’m shifting it to the place of my presence, my outpouring, my fire, my oil and my glory, the fog of heaven coming down to release a new sound out of heaven and out of the people of God. Hallelujah! Where signs and wonders will begin to be poured out.’

“I feel this so strongly…And about a month ago I believe, there was a report that came out that said Big Ben was going to be silenced for four years.  And the Lord said: ‘That’s the sign. That’s the shift.  That’s the major shift that I am doing, to change the direction of the nation’. ”

A CALL TO WEEP (INTERCEDE) FOR THE BBC

The BBC is in GOD’s spotlight!

We are called to make disciples of all nations, as in making converts and discipling people from all ethnic groups (Gk:Ethnae) “nations” but in another sense we are also called to introduce kingdom values to the systems and institutions of nations. This gives rise to the distinction in Matt 25:32 between sheep and goat nations. We see patterns of this in the life of Joseph who through his wisdom was able to save and preserve life in Egypt as well as Daniel who was promoted on the back of his very public unflinching in the face of persecution. He stood up for his faith, despite all…

In 1992 the BBC was dedicated to GOD and the plaque in the lobby of the BBC boldly declares,

“To GOD Almighty, .. praying that a good sowing may produce a good harvest so that everything unclean, impure and hostile to peace may be driven out, that whatever is beautiful, sincere, genuine and of good reputation may stand  . .”

However, this millennium has seen the BBC shift from being an impartial broadcaster to one which actively seeks to push ideologies averse to civilization and family, the building blocks of society and godliness. When those at the helm are challenged through petitions or the newscasters or offered an opinion other than that of the liberals, all objections are treated with impunity and hostility. “Bigot!”, “Homophobic!” and the like are what come. The BBC has become an organisation used by the enemy to promote gender extremism and hostility against any who hold to family values. A national institution in favour of all things Islam at the expense of Christianity. Even GOD-fearing politicians are not spared this barrage when they stand up for truth, decency and common sense morality.

Here are a few examples :

So, what can we do? Are we helpless at this tide of evil? By no means!! We are not without weapons, we are not without power, we are not helpless, WE CAN PRAY, and PRAY we shall! It is time to FIGHT BACK!

The BBC and this slide to moral anarchy was highlighted to the Inter-Prophetic Alliance and friends (a group of leaders burdened for the nation) and we set time aside to ask The LORD for His heart for the BBC. We asked for His revelation on what was behind this and what prayer strategy He may have for us. Here are some of our findings and conclusions:-

A. GOD loves all the people in the BBC and desires that they all come to the saving knowledge of JESUS. Tears flowed freely from our faces as we once again encountered The SAVIOUR’s love for all of humanity including the broadcasters who have sought to vilify believers. We wept as we prayed mercy and forgiveness on all the broadcasters who have been caught in the enemy’s trap and castigated believers.

B.  There is a heavy influence on all (but for the grace of GOD and those covered by His Blood) who work in the BBC by the spirit of the power of the air who has been invited by evil workers to rule there. This controlling diabolical spirit is the enemy.

C.  One of the past DG’s of the BBC was closely associated with the occult and as a result of this pacts were made with the enemy. Presently there are several serving at the BBC who have entered into similar demonic pacts.

PRAYER STRATEGY 

As we sought The LORD on what to do, this is what came to us –

1.  Pray, weep and intercede for all who are in the BBC. Pray for GOD’s hand of mercy to be revealed to all and for all who serve the nation there to come to repentance. We must uphold the spiritual truth that GOD always gives time to repent and turn before executing judgement (e.g Thyatira in Rev 2)
“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance” 2Peter 3:9

2.  Pray for GOD’s warning that they are in the spotlight to come to ears of those in authority in the BBC, that both Christian and pre-Christian alike find a place of repentance. (note that GOD expects godliness from all (e.g. Herod in Acts 12)
When Jonah’s warning reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust. 7 This is the proclamation he issued in Nineveh: “By the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let people or animals, herds or flocks, taste anything; do not let them eat or drink. 8 But let people and animals be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. 9 Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish.” 10 When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened”(Jonah) 

3. Strengthen the hands of those who are called to be watchmen and intercessors to the BBC and see a company of priestly intercessors who will man the gates for this portal to the nation.

To this end we have a series of prayer events for the BBC coming up –

1. “WEEP (intercede) for the BBC” – a time of weeping and intercessions for all in the BBC
TONIGHT > 6pm Thursday 26th October
Venue: Barclay Hall Christian Fellowship, 25 Barclay Rd, Fulham, London SW6 1EJ

2. “Decree over the BBC” – releasing GOD’s original purpose intent for the BBC
6pm Wednesday 1st November
Venue: Church Of Destiny 454A High Road Tottenham N17 9JD
(At the opening session of APO500* – conference marking the 500th anniversary of the reformation )

3. “Raise an umbrella over the BBC” – strengthening a company to watch and pray
November date to be announced

Hope to see you there, please pass on to your intercessory pals.

RB NOTE: readers familiar with my highly critical blogs on the Badly Biased Corporation (eg. 5 years ago) will recall its anti-Israel stance is not only pro-Palestinian in failing in its statutory duty to report current as well as historical events accurately but also its lack of  impartially arising from its distinctly prejudiced policy. This is amply demonstrated  by BBC Watch’s in-depth investigations overflowing with the corporation’s campaign of irredeemable misinformation, falsehoods and inaccuracies.

Thus, the self-righteous BBC deliberately misleads viewers about the state of Israel.

Lana Vawser: our God is much stronger than the battle

Received this morning (25th) from Australia this dream and associated word strikes a personal chord as well as harmonising with what prophets are hearing across Britain.:

Last night I had a dream and this morning I felt the Lord tell me to share the declaration of this dream as a prophetic word for many who have faced incredible battles in this season and currently facing huge battles.

“GOD IS GOING TO SHOW HIMSELF STRONGER THAN THE BATTLE”

I saw the intensity of the battle that many have faced and are facing, but the decree of the Lord right now is that He is going to show Himself stronger than the battle.

There will be incredible recompense. There will be more fruit than you have ever seen. There will be greater increase than you have dreamed. There will be greater demonstration of the power and creativity of God in your life. There will be restoration of what was taken, what was killed and stolen, the Lord is restoring by His resurrection power.

You will be even more convicted and burning with the revelation of the power of God and how great, how big, how strong, how mighty your God is. He is working for you and NOTHING can stand against you as you stand with Him and hold His hand. The enemy is going to run scared because of the demonstration of the power of God that is about to manifest in and through your life.

The enemy has stolen many of your voices, he has stolen many of your dreams but here comes the Lord in power, a deep encounter with His heart that will RESTORE your voice, RESTORE your sound, RESTORE your song, and you will carry and release greater revelation than you have in previous seasons.

HIS WORD IS LIKE FIRE

Get ready! Get ready! Get ready! He is about to step in and show Himself strong. It’s not a long way off, the Lord is upon you, the Lord is about to move. He is about to ignite in a whole new way and the way He shows Himself strong to you with place a fire, His fire in your bones so strongly, so powerfully, the fire of conviction of the truth of His Word that will leave you forever changed.

For the eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show himself strong in the behalf of those whose heart is perfect toward him. ” (2 Chronicles 16:9)

Stand up and watch! Stand up and watch! God is about to display His strength.

“Display your strength, God, and we’ll be strong! For your miracles have made us who we are. Lord, do it again, and parade from your temple your mighty power.” (Psalm 68:28-29)

Friends, He is about to do it again! He is about to break through for you! He is about to move for you! He is about to show His faithfulness again. He is about to blow you away with what He is going to do. The enemy thought he had “won” a battle in your life, but that’s a lie. The enemy is defeated, you are victorious in Jesus and you are about to see the triumph of God unravelled before you YET AGAIN in the demonstration of His power and strength.

The WAY that the Lord is going to show Himself strong is going to FAR OUTWEIGH the battle you have faced.

I saw the Lord coming as a mighty warrior and as He moved in power, I saw wombs in the natural and in the spirit FULL of fruitfulness. Whatever has attempted to HINDER the birthing, the Lord is coming in power and bringing a TURNING!

The strength and power of God is turning the SOUR TO SWEET!

I declare over you today..

THE STRENGTH OF GOD RELEASED INTO AND THROUGH YOUR LIFE IS GOING TO INGITE AND RELEASE A LEVEL OF FRUITFULNESS THAT WILL FAR OUTWEIGH THE BATTLE AND PATHWAYS OF WOUNDINGS YOU HAVE FACED….

William Booth’s prophecy of today’s dangerous apostasy

The First General of the Salvation Army, William Booth (1829-1912), is often quoted as shown above on foretelling changes in the approaching Twentieth century that could take place within churches.

His words are very accurate in prophesying global, liberal changes for the 21st Century Church, as reported in my recent posts. For more about this read Dr Joe Vankoevering’s brief article entitled 100 Year-Old Vision Coveys Sobering Warning to the Church.:

“I try to stay focused on what’s happening in the world as it relates to Bible prophecy—part of my assignment from God. And what’s occurring in the world today all points to the approaching return of Jesus Christ. However, another important part of my assignment is to deal with what God is saying as a warning to His church….”

Prophetic word and vision in Oz applied and fulfilled in UK

 

The timing of this from Lana Vawser in Australia on Monday, the next working day after my having asked Does God Make Jigsaws and Arrange Co-incidences? was absolutely jaw-dropping, especially with her quoting Proverbs 25:2 too and referring to jigsaws! Not only that but its promise had been fulfilled during that September-October weekend’s Christian International gathering in Windsor hosted by Revd Dr Sharon Stone.

Moreover, I’ve since learned this has also been happening to readers with whom I’m in correspondence; for example, as you can read in For Such A Time As This. Therefore, may all my readers be mightily encouraged in writing your personal journals:

WRITE IT ALL DOWN AND YOU WILL GO DEEPER THAN YOU’VE EVER BEEN

The Lord has been strongly impressing upon my heart in the last few weeks, the importance of writing everything down that He is sharing, speaking and releasing.

As I sat with the Lord one morning, I heard Him whisper again:

“Write it all down and you will go deeper than you have ever been”.

Suddenly, a vision opened up before me and I saw pages upon pages, upon pages being filled with revelation that was being written but as it was being written down I saw a HUGE portal opening up on the pages. It looked like a very deep WELL and the Lord spoke again “Write it all down and you will go deeper than you have ever been”.

The sense surrounded me in the “stewardship” of the revelation He is releasing, that a whole new realm of intimacy, revelation, insight and encounter was opening up for the people of God. The atmosphere was SO full of refreshment, SO full of rejuvenation and SO full of promise. I could feel the LIFE in the atmosphere and the INTENSITY of the REFRESHMENT.

As I watched this portal open up, I could also hear the sound of what sounded like a whirlpool. Rushing waters and I felt like I was having a HUGE glass of cold water on a hot day.

A GREAT UNLOCKING

There was a great unlocking that was taking place in the stewardship of writing down all that He says, and to meditate upon what He was saying, a whole new realm of hearing from Him and discovering His mysteries and secrets of His heart was being opened wide.

I was ministering in Launceston, Tasmania yesterday and in worship I kept seeing God’s people in scuba diving equipment and they were going to the depths of what looked like a HUGE ocean and they were discovering TREASURE they had never seen or experienced before. As they were going down to the depths I heard Proverbs 25:2:

“God conceals the revelation of His Word in the hiding place of His Glory but the honour of kings is revealed by how they thoroughly search out the deeper meaning of all God says.” (The Passion Translation)

Today, the Lord reminded me of that scuba diving vision and He said again “Write down all that I am saying and you will go deeper than you have ever been.”

There are new treasures, mysteries of God, revelation of His Word and secrets of His heart waiting for you. Chase after Hi and His heart and steward what He is saying by continually writing it down, and rivers of refreshment will open up over you.

PEACE OF MIND

As I ministered yesterday I saw the Lord removing confusion off minds and torment of the mind and He was releasing peace of the mind, and after I prayed for people I kept hearing Him repeat the words “PEACE OF MIND, PEACE OF MIND“. Instantly the knowing came to me, He was releasing PEACE OF MIND to His people for the CHANGES that are upon the body of Christ. Many of you are stepping out into new areas, new pathways, moving in a new direction, and the Lord is going to give you PEACE OF MIND for the decision and direction that you have made. Where you have followed the direction He is leading, He is coming to give you peace of mind and supernatural confirmation.

As I pondered this today, I was taken back to the initial vision of writing down all He is saying, and the portal opening up. I then saw JOY exploding all around. In the writing down of all He is saying, I saw all the puzzle pieces coming together. Confirmation after confirmation and MANY were experiencing so much JOY in the clarity. The thing that struck me is the puzzle pieces ‘coming together’ wouldn’t have been seen, if there was no time taken to “write down” all He was saying and showing.

YOU ARE GOING TO WRITE ABOUT THIS

I saw HUGE life changing testimonies coming out of the stewardship of His voice by writing down all He is saying. Many were being awakened to the revelation of the beautiful story He was putting together and the sense surrounded me that many were writing a story for tomorrow that they didn’t even realise. When the testimony and breakthrough comes, I saw many going back to the pages upon pages of writing, ALL the Lord said and weeping with joy seeing so much detail and revelation of His love and kindness in what He did. Every time they went back and read it, they saw something new. Another level of revelation of His kindness, His love and creativity. Another level of clarity. I then saw the Lord release many to write out their stories, their testimonies. Some became books, some became blogs, some were printed in magazines, some became songs.

He whispered again…

“What you are writing today, you are writing also in tomorrow”.

Friends, I encourage you to write down all He is showing you, all He is saying right now. Keep an account of all He is saying because out of that account I see a whole new depth of knowing Him and encountering Him, His heart and nature like never before and on the top of every page written in gold it says..

LIFE CHANGING!

Anglican headteacher surrenders to parental unbelief

Politico-religious blogger Adrian Hilton’s latest covers news about the headteacher who prefers giving in to demands from parents, doubtless atheist, rather than standing up for Christ and the teaching of His disciples!  Apostasy in action!

In Church of England school headteacher brands Crossteach educational charity ‘extremist’ Cranmer examines and comments upon events:

‘..a group of parents at St John’s Church of England Primary School weren’t happy with Christians coming in and talking about sin and Jesus and judgment and men and women getting married – you know, some of that basic Christian stuff which (headteacher) Dan Turvey says is at the heart of all they do because their Christian ethos is very strong. These parents objected to such “extremist beliefs”, and say Crossteach had been “upsetting children with a fundamentalist approach”.

Headteacher Dan Turvey capitulates in writing to parents,

“After careful consideration I have decided that we will end our regular commitment to CrossTeach and that they will no longer lead assemblies or take lessons, I have taken this action as I hope to bring an end this campaign and allow us to move on.”

Read Cranmer’s full, short article via the above link and, if you wish, share your opinion by joining its appended discussion.

ALSO note Cranmer’s clarifying rebuttal at foot of his discussion thread as in next post.

‘Wildfire’ baptism

Thank to UK Prophetic Words for this, reminding me of a word given to me during a visit to Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship – so what’s the Lord telling us through this?

THE ANGEL OF WILDFIRE BAPTISM

We had Duncan & Kate Smith, and Carol Arnott from Catch the Fire Ministries at our local Church with us for the weekend and on Saturday morning I had the following experience. I saw (in the physical) a man in the room, stood for around an hour with his eyes closed but gazing up in the direction of Heaven. I love to know what is going on in the Spirit and so I asked God if He would show me what was going on.

Immediately I got the sense of a MASSIVE Angel, maybe 15ft high standing directly before him with its arms out, surrounding him, protecting him and shielding him from everything going on around him in the room. In the very centre of the Angel’s arms was a Big Shower which was giving this man a 5-fold Baptism of Water, Spirit, Fire, Light and Glory. The man was being washed clean of everything that ever afflicted him and revived to be sent out into the World for God’s purposes.

I began drawing this and then Carol Arnott went up and began speaking about the Angel of Wildfire Baptism she has seen in her house. I believe this was the Angel I was seeing there in the room with us!

Hebraic Year 5778 – Year of the Open Door

Further to Dave Hood’s reference to ‘open door’ in his For such a time as this I thank Chris Bennett and UK Prophetic Words for this on the new Hebraic year:

5778 – YEAR OF THE OPEN DOOR!

If the coming year is the year of the open door for Israel, then it is surely the year of the open door for Christians too. I read relatively little prophecy from others, that I may know that anything I speak prophetically is from God rather than something already implanted in my mind by another’s prophecy. So this, like anything else I write, is what I believe I am hearing from God.

We’ve heard a lot about open doors lately. I’ve written about it and so have others. I/we’ve had ‘open doors’ prophesied over us three times recently and, indeed, new doors have been cracking open before us. So when I read the other day that the Jewish new year, 5778, is the Year of the Open Door, I sat up and paid attention.

“Have I not opened every door necessary to bring you thus far?” says the Lord. “And will I not open every door necessary to ensure your path in the future?”

I feel the Lord saying that He is clearing a way for revival, opening doors of opportunity, preparing hearts both for the work and for salvation. He is changing mindsets from doubt to expectancy, and He is fulfilling the expectant heart by His Spirit.

Doors are opening for all His children. Some will be the answer to prayer, but some will be totally unexpected opportunities for bringing even the most lost of people with the hardest of hearts to the throne of grace.

Yet the most important doors the Lord is opening are the doors to revival. In the UK, this has already started to happen. In America, the course that President Trump is taking is opening many, many doors to revival. Indeed small spiritual fires are already burning in places, and I feel that, under the example shown by Mr Trump, many more will start until America is ablaze with revival.

“PRAY!” says the Lord, “PRAY for REVIVAL, PRAY for YOUR LEADERS, PRAY for YOUR CHURCH, PRAY for YOUR CITIES, PRAY for YOUR FAMILIES.

“LET YOUR PRAYERS RISE AS A SWEET AROMA BEFORE ME”, says God, “and let my enemies be scattered as I arise and bring MY SPIRIT with REVIVAL to both the UK and AMERICA and from there to THE WORLD.

“This is the season. This is the year. Now is the time to TEAR DOWN those things that hold you back. Now is the time for HARVEST. Now is the time for my spirit to show the world that I am God, that I am the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY. That is my name and I will be heard throughout your land!

I have OPENED THE DOOR, I am coming, and I am bringing REVIVAL with me!” says the Lord!

Amen.

For such a time as this – I (eye) wonder… (note #1)

Written just after the total solar eclipse crossed USA from its Pacific to Atlantic coast, Dave Hood presented me with a thought-provoking article and gave kind permission to publish. Re-reading it 7 weeks later I notice several God-incidental prophetic elements – including a healing; hence (parenthesis) in the title – as in my observations appended below:

FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS

Like many, I’ve wondered if the very recent eclipse affecting mainly America had any meaning.

A number of days ago, an acquaintance posted some information on Big Ben and the eclipse on Facebook. At that time I was already toying with these following facts…:

It struck me, from information, that the sun’s diameter is 400 times greater than the moon…and the sun is ALSO 400 times further away. Add to this the component of 4 years, the anticipated period of Big Ben’s stoppage which began on the same day as the eclipse.

Then we have the factors of size, distance and time linked to the number 4 . The number 444 had been, and still is, appearing ’til one is dizzy. The number 4 is related, in part, to the context of the creation natural and supernatural. 444 has had a number of different interpretations, including one of the timing of mantles being released and of the fullness of time, to mention but two of many others.

Here’s a video-link to Steve Cioccolanti, that I received after the facts outlined above were discovered.

I discover at around 7min 47secs (#2) another 4 is introduced into the sequence… Genesis 1:13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day  – Gen 1:14 .Then God said (of the 4th day), “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years” ; the seasons are not our summer, winter, etc, but rather God’s seasons.

But I then noticed in the video, at 26min 20 secs, he starts talking about the month of Elul, which BEGINS on sundown 21st August 2017, the day of the eclipse. Elul is the 12th month of the Jewish civil new year. Elul is the last month. From 24min 34 sec he explains Elul means ‘harvest’, but specifically the beginning of the harvest.

Just this Tuesday evening, the 22nd August, BEFORE I’d seen this video, I’d prepared a bible study on the word ‘tav’. In it I paid careful attention to explaining the place of numbers and pictures attached to this unique letter tav, as used and outlined in the Hebrew alphabet. We see this author of the video at 13 min 27secs provide also this focus. (#3)

Here is an excerpt of the study of evening 22nd August.:
Study notes, in italics, per John 4:35 (NIV) …”I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.” (#4 & #5)

Note…gaining the harvest…requires OUR eyes be opened and then…LOOKING, and not looking away (#6)He wants to open our eyes and fill our jars … to connect our place of authority in heavenly places with his purpose here below on earth this earthly realm (Jacob’s ladder)

So today the 23rd...I began to wonder, is God opening our eyes, through the event of this eclipse, to demonstrate, to us, that HIS, long promised and hoped for harvest, dreamt for…has, in fact, now begun…the day following the eclipse…the eclipse being the trigger point and of the beginning of the month Elul, the beginning of the harvest. Elul, means, translates to harvest. And this harvest, beginning on the first day of Elul, is the beginning of God’s harvest season.

Following this illumination, I found some other enticing, and supportive facts. In Hebrew the fourth letter is ‘dalet’. The figure 4 is pictorially represented as the open door.

Another source spoke of it as being an open tent door, as in the Tent of Meeting. It’s an invitation to enter.

Just the previous Sunday in a fellowship meeting I attended, a prophetic word was given emphasising the open door He was placing, that no-one, no thing could or would close. (#7)

The 4th day brought the moon, sun and stars into play and could point to division, in terms of them separating light from dark. We as believers were brought out of darkness into light. I saw a quote attributed to G.L.Parks? As well as representing division it also signified time. Excellent article noted below (by Julie Volby on Doug Fortune’s site).

And a reference to the 4th dimension …a coordinate in addition to length, breadth and depth; a coordinate in addition to 3 rectangular coordinates especially when interpreted as the time co-ordinate in space or time continuum. Something outside the range of ordinary experience.

Eph 3:17-19 ……to comprehend the length and width and height and depth of His love,

We have mass, distance and time…Ephesians shows the 4th dimension.  Earlier we saw the factors of mass, distance and time…and when computed together…determine
force.

Eph 3:7 …according to the working of His power; v 14 …according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man; v 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. v20 according to the power that works within us, 21 to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.

The love of god is the strength of god and the strength of god is the power of his love.

Gen 1:13 There was evening and there was morning, a third day Gen 1:14 .Then God said, (of the 4th day) “Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night, and let them be for signs and for seasons and for days and years”; The seasons are not our summer, winter, etc, but Gods seasons.

God’s seasons… The name Theresa, can be derived from Greek meaning (theros) “summer” and from Greek (therizo) to harvest.

Psalm 19 (YLT) To the Overseer — A Psalm of David. The heavens [are] recounting the honour of God, And the work of His hands The expanse [is] declaring. 2 Day to day uttereth speech, And night to night sheweth knowledge. 3 There is no speech, and there are no words. Their voice hath not been heard. 4 Into all the earth hath their line gone forth, And to the end of the world their sayings, For the sun He placed a tent in them, 5 And he, as a bridegroom, goeth out from his covering, He rejoiceth as a mighty one To run the path. 6 From the end of the heavens [is] his going out, And his revolution [is] unto their ends, And nothing is hid from his heat.

I wonder, do you?  [Yes, ‘eye’ wonder – and what a wonder! See #1]

Dave Hood, 23rd August 2017

Credit goes to these excellent links: Doug Fortune and Mary Carpenter Burt, whose post of 21 Aug reads: “Take note. This is PROPHETIC !! The day the music died in the UK. (Westminister chime) Today is the day, 21/08/17, that Big Ben has planned to go silent at 12pm BST for 4 years due to repairs on the tower on the SAME day as a major eclipse in the USA. A season of darkness and silence connecting the USA and the UK? Prayer and perseverance will be needed as these will seem to be dark and silent times concerning the USA and the UK. Yet an outpouring is coming. The ‘timing’ and ‘length of time’ is important elements of this season.”

RB Footnotes:
  1. Exactly one month after that eclipse on 21st Sept a lady attending prayer for healing regained her sight in one eye. Her eye had glaucoma for which surgery was scheduled but after looking at herself in a mirror after prayer ran back to the chapel to declare she could see through that eye – praise the Lord.
  2. Number 47 (my birth-year) popped up when I updated my testimony about having been confronted over 30 years ago about my New Age activity. Whilst updating I was nudged to check how long it had been since publishing that part of my story and found 47 months had elapsed! The reason for updating was yet another event of several in recent months that were significant in my journey towards my coming to Christ had been highlighted. (See ‘First Contact’ section of Searching for Truth leads me into captivity.)
  3. See also Mark Biltz’s notes on the 1:400 ratio and ‘tav’ in this blog’s Today’s and one month away’s awesome events in the heavens.
  4. I’d been stirred to refer to the Samaritan woman meeting Jesus in John 4 in my post of 29th September, Does God make ‘jigsaws’ and arrange coincidences? 
  5. The next day at Rev Dr Sharon Stone’s International Gathering of Apostles and Prophets in Windsor the Lord returned my attention to John 4 but redirected it to His Spirit’s unseen preparation of the ‘harvest’.
  6. To read more about ‘dalet’ and ‘Open Door’ on this blog see search results ‘dalet’.
  7. Read Chuck Pierce on Hebraic Year 5778 The Year of the Door and Angelic hosts will take us through the Door, as well as the next post (appearing at 18:00hrs).

Thank you Dave, and William Smith for the photo of the solar eclipse (source unknown).

Fresh fire to fall on the Church

Thank you to the Lord and Yinka Oyekan for this published by UK Prophetic Words:

VISION OF FRESH FIRE COMING TO THE CHURCH

This morning Father whispered in my ear,

“If believers want to stand before kings on earth they must learn to kneel before the Lamb of Heaven.

“My desire is that everyone should get a chance to kneel before Me. So, tell My sons and daughters to ‘be strong, deny the self and proclaim the good news’. They killed My son because of it and those who love Me share in His sufferings.”

My mind turned to the images of the preceding night where he showed me a fire he was sending into his church. A glorious fire pointing to divine majesty, and our absolute dependence on him alone for true light. An envisioning fire, fuelling the passions and hearts of those who have truly seen him, for how can you serve anything else once you have been illuminated by him? A holy fire, demanding repentant hearts. An insistent fire, demanding obedience to The Father; a hungry fire, feeding our devotion.

Misty Edwards ‘God is a Flame’ (tap for song in new tab)

In Europe, I saw countless churches coming alive with fresh evangelistic zeal and Germany ablaze with a fresh fire. I saw Sweden, Switzerland, and some other countries of Europe filled with it, like a mighty wave, then following south, and back into Africa and the Middle East.

In the UK I saw that it will release a wave of new songs and hope. In the Southwest it will be a soothing fire bringing a wave of unity and healing into communities and a fresh sense of identity. In the East I saw thousands bending the knee to Christ. And I saw London, Edinburgh and Cardiff glowing with it.

Father’s love is fuelling a fresh wave of the Spirit. For the Lord will build his church and no pressure from the forces of darkness will prevail against it.
