American reader connects pandemic snake dream with similar of 7 years-old boy AND promise for breakthrough today (GPS #46.2)
Your attention is drawn to comments of an American blogger at New Heaven on Earth on the previous post, and which confirm Lisa Tierney’s dream in December of a tropical snake signifying a demonic ‘principality of sicknesses and infirmities’ coming to Britain.
My long-time reader quotes from Johnny Enlow’s The Benjamins – Israel Turns 72 and the Crown Virus is Shattered in which he refers to the scriptural significance of the state of Israel’s 72nd birthday on 28-29 April, and says there’s great significance TODAY, 30th April, for the demise of the current global pandemic.
Johnny writes:
‘We are in a time where God is exerting His “right hand” of deliverance upon the face of the earth, and even His covenant nation, Israel, is reflecting that reality at this time in who rules.
Benjamin’s Dream
Credit Will Ford
‘Many of you have heard of the 7-year-old named “Benjamin” who, for 7 consecutive nights, had a most relevant prophetic dream for us today (Will and Dehavilland Ford’s son). In the dream, he saw “a tall, green plant with a crown” squeezing the life out of the world and getting new tentacles and strength as he did. Then the Lord appeared as a Lamb’s body with a Lion’s Face and shredded the crowned plant. Benjamin then saw on a screen, “This ends April 30.” The last 3 or 4 nights of the dream, the “crowned plant” was progressively smaller and weaker. Every dream ended with the words “This ends April 30.” The Passover Lamb is also the Lion of the Tribe of Judah and this is the “face” He is now revealing to us and to society.
Shattering the Crowned Virus
‘Benjamin’s dream is such significant revelation that it can’t be ignored or thought of passively. It is very intentional that God gave this dream to a boy named Benjamin. It is a dream of God’s “right hand” of power coming to shatter the enemy. It is significant that he is 7 years old and that he had the dream 7 times. 7 is the number of fulfillment and completion. 7 times around the walls of Jericho and the walls came tumbling down. Benjamin didn’t know that the word “corona” in coronavirus means “crown,” though he knew that is what it represented. He has been praying daily against it as his spirit knows his generation was not destined to be a depression generation. His father (Will Ford) revealed to him that the crowned virus of fear and death is being shatter’
It is better to read Johnny’s article in full and today’s update on more dreams from the boy’s father, so these will appear as the next posts (click to continue reading >>>).
AND remember the remarkable coincidence on Israel’s 70th Independence Day of a 5.5 magnitude earthquake striking near Iran’s nuclear reactor! [Earthquake on Israel’s 70th, Jeremiah and Daniel’s ’70’ – ‘Signs’ from God? and Fulfilled Prophecy #28 refer.]
PS. Here’s Lisa Tierney’s reaction: “Only yesterday The Lord had me look at the Name BENJAMIN…I was drawn to that Name…”. Thus, YET ANOTHER example of God’s own GPS (Global Prophecy Signalling) system.

Holy Fire caught during church video meeting
Three weeks after our first video meeting with Catch The Fire Farnborough, as told in this confirmation of the establishing of ‘new wineskin’ church, pastor Bird asked one of the attendees to read a scripture he’d submitted as being relevant to this new church:
The Coming Glory of God’s House (NKJV – BibleGateway)
In the seventh month, on the twenty-first of the month, the word of the Lord came [a]by Haggai the prophet, saying: 2 ‘Speak now to Zerubbabel the son of Shealtiel, governor of Judah, and to Joshua the son of Jehozadak, the high priest, and to the remnant of the people, saying: 3 “Who is left among you who saw this [b]temple in its former glory? And how do you see it now? In comparison with it, is this not in your eyes as nothing? 4 Yet now be strong, Zerubbabel,” says the Lord; “and be strong, Joshua, son of Jehozadak, the high priest; and be strong, all you people of the land,” says the Lord, “and work; for I am with you,” says the Lord of hosts. 5 “According to the word that I covenanted with you when you came out of Egypt, so My Spirit remains among you; do not fear!”
6 ‘For thus says the Lord of hosts: “Once more (it is a little while) I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land; 7and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the [c]Desire of All Nations, and I will fill this [d]temple with glory,” says the Lord of hosts. 8 “The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine,” says the Lord of hosts. 9 “The glory of this latter [e]temple shall be greater than the former,“ says the Lord of hosts. “And in this place I will give peace,“ says the Lord of hosts.’
I’m amazed that once again a scripture brought to our attention had been highlighted in my old Bible, as in the attached photo. This was probably done in connection with having heard “Hebrews 12” over 29 yrs ago and when I highlighted v 26 about ‘The Shaking’, which is why I’ve oft referred to it when blogging (see tag).

Let the True Prophets of God arise over nations – Veronika West
How ‘God-incidental’ that in responding to reader Mary’s comment I felt prompted to stick Lana Vawser’s prophecy of February 2016 on coals of fire on prophets’ heads to this blog’s homepage. A hour ago Veronika posted this on Ignite Ireland Ministries.
Moreover, it fits a scripture connected to judgement beginning at the house of God that I’d homed in on days ago: from 1 Peter 4:17 > Malachi 3:11, NKJV: “I will rebuke the devourer for your sakes” (a demon I’d seen many decades ago!):
“LET THE TRUE PROPHETS ARISE OVER THE NATIONS WITH THE SOUND OF THE ROAR OF REDEMPTION AND RESURRECTION POWER IN THEIR MOUTHS AND LET THE VOICE OF THE LYING DEVOURER BE SILENCED”….! These are the words I heard this morning as I went before the Lord….!
In prayer this morning I felt such a tangible weight of the Spirit fear, grief, despair and deep discouragement covering the Nations, I saw in the Spirit many Nations that were covered by a thick heavy cloak of darkness and I saw the words, “DEMONIC OPPRESSION” ,….and then I heard these words, “HOPE DEFERRED HAS MADE THE HEARTS OF MANY SICK”…!
Then I saw many people across the Nations sitting indoors with a yoke of heaviness around their necks and the voices of familiar spirits were whispering in their ears, lies and more lies were being spoken over them and then I heard the Spirit say, “Look many are standing on the threshold of their greatest breakthrough…many are on the very cusp of the dreams and visions they have carried for decades being made fully manifest… but! listen!”….

A Word of Warning to the Church – Veronika West, 18 April 2019
I found this visionary prophetic word re-published by a FB friend whilst scrolling my Facebook’s ‘Home’ screen. Being Fb I couldn’t find it again but had opened its link. In view of this ‘alert’, therefore, I believe it is a ‘now’ word (which proved accurate that evening):
Two days ago I SAW SOMETHING TERRIFYING COMING TO THE CHURCH, I WAS STANDING IN A CHURCH IN OUR NATION AMONG MANY BELIEVERS WHO HAD THEIR HANDS LIFTED AND THEY WERE IN WORSHIP, WHEN SUDDENLY A WHIRLWIND OF FIRE CAME THROUGH THE DOORS OF THE CHURCH AND AS THE WHIRLWIND OF FIRE CAME IN I HEARD THE PEOPLE BEGIN TO CRY OUT FOR MERCY AND I WATCHED AS THE WHIRLWIND OF FIRE MOVED SLOWING ACROSS THE PEOPLE BURNING AWAY THEIR OUTER GARMENTS, WHICH LEFT EVERYONE COMPLETELY NAKED AND TRANSPARENT, NOT ONLY BEFORE ONE ANOTHER BUT BEFORE ALMIGHTY GOD.
I WATCHED AS SOME TRIED DESPERATELY TO HIDE THEMSELVES BEHIND WALLS AND PILLARS AND UNDER TABLES AND PEWS, BUT THE FIRE WAS TOO INTENSE. IT WAS A CONSUMING FIRE, IT WAS AN INESCAPABLE FIRE, IT WAS A FIRE THAT WAS ALIVE AND IT MOVED WITH GREAT POWER AND GREAT FORCE, THEN I WATCHED AS OTHERS TRIED TO HIDE THEIR NAKEDNESS BUT THE CONSUMING FIRE HAD COMPLETELY BURNED AWAY EVERYTHING THAT STOOD IN THE SANCTUARY, THE PEWS, THE PULPIT, THE ALTAR EVEN THE DOORS ON THE BUILDING WERE BURNED, THE ONLY THING THAT REMAINED WERE THE NAKED PEOPLE, THEN SUDDENLY I HEARD THESE WORDS,
“THE TIME HAS COME FOR MY HOUSE TO BE CLEANSED BY THE PURIFYING FIRES OF MY GLORY, MY WHIRLWIND OF FIRE SHALL COME SUDDENLY AND SWIFTLY UPON MY FATHER’S HOUSE AND IT SHALL CONSUME AND IT SHALL CLEANSE AND IT SHALL PURIFY, WATCH AS THE FIRES OF MY GLORY COME TO EXPOSE AND UNCOVER, WATCH! AS MY FIRE COMES TO SWEEP CLEAN MY FATHER’S HOUSE, FOR LONG ENOUGH MY CHURCH HAS BEEN A PLACE OF HIDING FOR THOSE WHO HAVE DEFILED MY WORD AND QUENCHED MY SPIRIT, FOR SURELY I TELL YOU MY WHIRLWIND OF FIRE SHALL BURN AWAY ALL THINGS THAT ARE FLESHLY AND NOT OF THE SPIRIT, FOR MY FIRE COMES TO CONSUME THE WORKS OF WICKEDNESS AND CORRUPTION, YES!! FOR THE WORKS OF EVIL AND CORRUPTION IN MY HOUSE HAS OPENED THE DOOR TO DEVOURING SPIRITS AND TO THE SPIRITS OF WITCHCRAFT AND WICKEDNESS. WATCH! AND GET READY MY BELOVED AS MY WHIRLWIND OF FIRE COMES TO STRIP AWAY AND TO SWEEP CLEAN IN THIS SEASON, FOR I SHALL BURN AWAY EVERY UNGODLY THING TO REVEAL A HOLY AND SET APART REMNANT THAT SHALL WORSHIP IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH, WATCH! AS THE SPIRIT OF THE FEAR OF THE LORD COMES TO STRIKE A HOLY AND REVERENTIAL FEAR ONCE AGAIN IN THE HEARTS OF THE PEOPLE”, says God
Ps; This Spirit encounter was TERRIFYING, I believe the Church is about to HAVE AN ENCOUNTER WITH A HOLY AND RIGHTEOUS GOD THAT THEY DO NOT KNOW…, for too long the Church has been lifting their hands and their voices to a God of their own imagination and not to the GOD OF THE BIBLE. Many have become SO ACCUSTOMED TO A god OF COMPROMISE AND CONVENIENCE that they are ill- equipped to deal effectively with the forces of darkness that are working in the midst of them. Many have Worshiped at the altar of a god of their own making and they have lost ALL FEAR AND REVERENCE. Is it not a wonder why the Spirit of Islam is advancing with great power across the Nations of the Earth, for surely while the CHURCH SLEEPS AND SLUMBERS PASSIVELY SATAN IS GAINING GROUND AND TAKING TERRITORIES.
“THE WHIRLWIND OF FIRE DRAWS NEAR; ARE YOU READY TO ENCOUNTER HIS GLORY??

A Trumpet Call: Can Covid-19 change the nation’s values? – Neil Mackereth
Neil MacKereth, author of Signs, the Significance of Bible Prophecy, emailed saying, “I continue to be amazed at your prolific output…I am adding to your reading load with the attached – a bit longer than recent docs, but I felt urged to write it. Hope you can find a moment to read it.” Running off a hard-copy I mulled it over at leisure but was brought back to it a few times in view of its thought-provoking content. Therefore, you too may find it of noteworthy interest…
A TRUMPET CALL
Can Covid-19 Change the Nations Values?
“If you ask me what I think to be the design, I believe it to be this—to waken up our indifferent population, to make them remember that there is a God, to render them susceptible of the influences of the gospel, to drive them to the house of prayer, to influence their minds to receive the Word, and moreover to startle Christians into energy and earnestness, that they may work while it is called to-day.” (Charles Spurgeon, ‘The Voice of Cholera’ sermon, August 1866)
INTRODUCTION – THE SITUATION (April 2020)
Covid-19 is a virulent and pitiless virus which is sweeping across the world. So far, it is an uncontrollable pestilence: it is a law unto itself. It advances like a desert wind, ignoring those in authority and all the usual constraints that govern inter-national relations. It destroys people and livelihoods, undermines governments and economies and is testing the very foundations of our way of life and our values.
It is not localised, or in some way compartmentalised, as Ebola was, or forest fires are, or tsunamis, or earthquakes. It cannot be ignored, ridiculed or responded to half-heartedly, as global warming has been.
I pose some questions for your consideration: Continue reading

Jesus Christ’s identity hidden in the Bible’s opening sentence
We continue the previous post’s conclusion drawn from Jonathan Hill’s thesis with this startling discovery:
ALPHA-OMEGA HIDDEN WITHIN GENESIS 1:1 (AS ALEPH-TAV)
In Appendix I (pages 202-203) on the meaning of number 37 and its palindromic partner 73, Jonathan says both form the numerical value for the fundamental Hebrew word ‘wisdom’. He tells how this pair play a role in a multiplication, the result being the precise number of the Hebrew for the creation verse of Genesis 1:1. He goes on to relate this to 666 and a diagrammatic representation, which he interprets as meaning:
‘This transformation represents the dispensational truth that at the second coming of Christ, the dominant spiritual hierarchy of the world changes from 666, the number of the ‘beast’, to 12 – the governmental number of Israel. All this information including this powerful intervention of God is elegantly and visually encoded in the first verse of the Bible.’
This claim continues by divulging this astounding mystery:
Furthermore, this relates to Jesus’ Crucifixion Described Within the Holy Name of God, published on Good Friday, to which my American reader Tim Shey submitted this most instructive video:
REVELATION 1:8, 11 – 21:6 – 22:13
“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” (NKJV, BibleGateway.com)

A post-Resurrection miracle as a ‘mystery’ now revealed – part 2
[First published 2018]
His disciples came to Jesus and said, “Why do You speak to them in parables?” and He replied, “Because it has been given to you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. For whoever has, to him (and her) more will be given, and he will have abundance; but whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. Therefore, I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand…” (Matthew 13:10-13 NKJV)
Definition: ‘Mystery’, Greek musterion (moos-tay-ree-on; Strongs #3466). From mueo, “to initiate into the mysteries”, hence a secret known only to the initiated, something hidden requiring special revelation. In the NT the word denotes something that people could never know by their own understanding and that demands a revelation from God. The secret thoughts, plans and dispensations of God remain hidden from unregenerate mankind, but are revealed to all believers. In non-biblical Greek musterion is knowledge withheld, concealed or silenced. In biblical Greek it is truth revealed (Col 1:26). NT musterion focuses upon Christ’s sinless life, atoning death, powerful resurrection and dynamic ascension.’ [New Spirit-Filled Study Bible]
Prophecy: “2018: I will impart to My Prophets the ability to see clearly My Numbers…” (delivered by Leisa Ebere, read in full here).
The above, ancient meaning of ‘mystery’ is rarely understood and appreciated, even by those solidly grounded in scripture. As told in my testimony, my pre-Christian life got immersed in that esoteric knowledge, and so I’m experienced in this matter and can attest that the difference between that discipline and holy revelations from the Almighty is like the contrast between His Light and the devil’s darkness.

A post-Resurrection miracle as a ‘mystery’ now revealed – part 1
[First published 2018]
Not long after Father God brought Jesus the Messiah back from the dead by His Spirit, the One who’s the radiance of His glory went once again in search of His ex-fisherman friends. Of the two sets of brothers who’d been partners in the fishing trade on the Sea of Galilee before deserting their nets to follow a peripatetic teacher, their boss had an exceptionally severe crisis of self-confidence.
GONE FISHING!
So this ‘son of Jonah’, named Simon, decided to return to the simple life of sitting in a boat with buddies and dragging a net in the hope of getting a catch – but it proved to be an exercise in futility!
A few years earlier on that inland sea, the four fishing partners encountered and had been ‘called’ by The One to follow Him. Jesus amazed the crowds there with His teaching and had asked Simon if He could address them from his moored boat. Jesus knew the men had worked hard all night without having caught anything because, when He’d finished speaking, He told Simon to sail into deep water and lower his nets despite the fruitless night – Simon was overwhelmed by the result! They’d got such a large number of fish that another boat was called for – then both began to sink with their massive weight!!
So Simon changed his tune. Upon hearing Jesus’ instruction he’d objected because of the poor night, yet respectfully referred to Him as “Master” – but in amazement at the fresh catch breaking nets and sinking boats, Simon addressed Him with the superior term of “Lord”; thus suggesting he was beginning to understand the status of this astonishing teacher. In the account by one of those partners, John, they’d previously met Jesus immediately after His baptism in the river Jordan and Andrew had brought his brother Simon to see Jesus, who then spoke of his identity and implicit destiny, “You are Simon son of Jonah. You shall be called Cephas,” (which is translated ‘A Stone’, Petros/Peter: John 1:42).
After that huge catch of unspecified quantity, Jesus called Simon into his destiny: “Do not be afraid. From now on you will catch men!” That is, a fisher of men. When they’d landed their boats the four foresook all and followed Him (Luke 5:10-11). Continue reading
Day of Jesus’ death and His three days in the tomb — Dr Arnold Fruchtenbaum
For those who, like this blogger, are puzzled over the apparent inconsistency of the period of Jesus’ death, this article by a renowned Messianic scholar is very helpful:
To conclude the narrative of the death and burial of Messiah, Dr. Fruchtenbaum addresses two specific questions in his book Yeshua: The Life of Messiah from a Messianic Jewish Perspective. 1. The Day of Yeshua’s Death The first question pertains to the day on which Yeshua died. Some who do not […]

HE IS RISEN! – Time and Quantum effects in Jesus’ Resurrection
First published in the early years of this blog and repeated annually:
In preparation for the Holy-days’ weekend Nina creates a tableau for contemplating Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection. She’s inspired about what items to collect and arrange, usually including a rock with a central hole eroded by the sea and which we found on a beach. It serves as both the ‘skull’ and garden tomb of Golgotha. For example, the above display has a scarf as a ‘river of life’ flowing out of the empty cave/tomb below the cross. (In 2012 it gave an insight that I’ll share below.)
Maundy Thursday is celebrated as the night when Jesus and the lead-disciples ate an early Passover Seder, or meal (see video explanation). Following the meal, one disciple betrayed Him by leading Temple guards to capture Him at night for trial by a ‘kangaroo’ court of Jewish leaders. It was a foregone conclusion that they’d demand authorisation of His death from Pontius Pilate, the Roman Prefect, or governor, of Judea.
If you’re unfamiliar with this true story and how it led to Jesus’ gruesome torture, death and burial followed by his amazing bodily resurrection and appearance to His disciples, read doctor Luke’s investigative account and the personal account of Jesus’ closest disciple John. (Later, a Jewish leader violently opposed to them but who encountered Jesus en-route to Damascus would write He was seen simultaneously by over 500 – read 1 Corinthians 15:6)

Sunday’s Coming! And how does Jesus get Resurrected?
In the next posting we’ll consider what happened to revive our dear Lord…
Jesus’ Crucifixion described within the Holy Name of God
First published on this blog in April 2017 and now continuing yesterday’s Maundy Thursday Musing:
According to Steve Maltz, author of God’s Signature, the only time the sacred, personal Name of God was spoken by the ancient Israelites was during worship in the Temple in Jerusalem, and especially on the Day of Atonement when the High Priest pronounced it ten times.
The Talmud has many warnings about using the most holy Name – it is also regarded as having special powers of healing. Apparently knowledge of its pronunciation was lost after the fall of the Temple in AD70 prophesied by Jesus Christ.
The knock-on effect of that event, together with the Roman Church’s withdrawal in the third Century of financial support for churches in the Holy Land founded by Jesus’ own ‘kith and kin’ (‘desponyni’), was the great loss of a full understanding of the Church’s Hebraic roots. Hence the confusion and doctrinal disagreements over Jesus’ claim, “I am in the Father and the Father is in me” (John 14:10).
Digging deeper we encounter an astonishing revelation of that double-identity!
From translations of Hebrew, the post-Shakespeare English-speaking world referred to God’s Name as ‘Jehovah’ or ‘LORD’ (letter ‘J’ was then starting to replace ‘i’). However, Jews preferred well-known descriptive titles such as ‘Elohim’ – God, in all the fullness of His attributes; ‘El Shaddai’ – Almighty; ‘El Sabaoth’ – Lord of heavenly hosts; or Adonai’ – Lord, and more often than not the reverent term ‘Ha Shem’ (The Name) sufficed.
Scribes, or sopher, needed to take special care in praying before writing the holy name, which must be done without interruption. Were a mistake made, it must not be corrected but the whole page discarded and the page restarted. Numbering had to be carefully handled too because Hebrew characters represented both letters and numbers. So the logical way of writing 15 is to add a yod (ie 10) to a hey (ie 5) and likewise for 16 (a yod to a vav). But this never happened because, as part of the sacred name, they could accidentally be read as this name. The Holy Name is shown below, but read from right to left:
“Yod-Hey-Vav-Hay” first appears in Genesis 2:4 statement that ‘The Book of Beginnings’ is the account of, “When the LORD God made the earth and the heavens”.
This Name was first revealed when Moses encountered God in the burning bush after he’d asked Him whom should he tell the Israelites had sent him to get them out of their slavery in Egypt.
God replied, “I AM WHO I AM.” And He said, “Thus you shall say to the children of Israel, ‘I AM has sent me to you’. ” (Exodus 3:14 NKJV)
Steve writes, “Interestingly and contrary to popular belief, the Hebrew word used in this passage…is not YHVY (he shows Hebrew characters). So, what’s going on here? Is it His name or isn’t it? In this Exodus passage, the word used for His name is “Aleph-Hey-Yod-Hey”.
“This takes the meaning of “I will be”…(which) shares a similar three-consonant root with YHVY in Hey-Vav-Hey and Hey-Yod-Hey…and as they’re related are both ways of describing God”. Hence my liking of describing God as “Always” and “Now”, the latter being used by Charlie Shamp too.
HOLY FATHER-SON UNION REVEALED & THE CRUCIFIXION FORETOLD
As in those preceding links, literary Hebrew developed out of pictographic forms that represent gestures and their meanings. We logically surmise both original visual and later written forms were known to and, therefore, used by the Lord in communicating with Abraham and his descendants through Issac and Jacob, and used by Moses and his scribes in compiling the first five books of the Bible.
Comparing the literary and pictorial forms of the name Moses heard and recorded as being from the Lord, we have this graphic (credit Heart To Heart):
Hebrew is read right to left, ie ‘hand-look-nail-look’, but if we read as normal left to right we find not only the Name of God describing who He is, the fullness of His character and abilities, but also its exceptional prophetic nature in it foretelling the pivotal point of His action plan for humanity: the crucifixion of His Son Jesus Christ!
BEHOLD – A NAIL – BEHOLD – A HAND
AND THIS ‘WORD’ SHOWS TWO PERSONS!
Could this indicate that Christ was hidden in the Father when Moses encountered them at the burning bush but manifested as ‘The Angel of the Lord’ or pre-incarnate Christ ? It’s worth reading Exodus 3 carefully again and note Who is speaking to Moses…
Moreover, the pictographs graphically portray God as ‘hands up’ in connection with a nail. Putting all this together into one picture we get a typical image of Jesus on the Cross at Calvary, where long nails or spikes driven through Jesus’ wrists damage the median nerves thus making His hands bend into the ‘claw position’ – just like letter Yod!!

The Cross at Ffald-y-Brenin, ‘miraculously’ provided and located as directed by the Lord.
[First published 2016]
Reflections upon the events of Jesus’ betrayal and execution whilst we were on a Quiet Day’s ‘Appointment in Jerusalem’, added to my ongoing meditation upon His personal prayer made, not in the garden of Gethsemane, but earlier in the upper room at the close of their Passover meal (John 17). That ‘celebratory remembrance’ proved to be more than a ground-breaking event. It was truly a heaven-breaking-in pivotal time in human history in which Jesus offered up Himself as the Paschal Lamb, not only for His first disciples but also for everyone who would ever believe in Him – eg. you and me! AND enable everyone to come into the full freedom of salvation from their sins and satan’s consequential authority over their lives – should they so choose. Continue reading
94. Coronavirus healing story
WE THANK AND PRAISE YOU LORD FOR ANSWERED PRAYERS
It is with slight trepidation that I post a story about the influence of prayer on the recovery of a man in Peterborough from the coronavirus – it is understandable that people will have questions about how faith in God combines with a pandemic like the one we face right now, and I would be very glad to open a dialogue with anyone who wanted to explore such questions (email me, or comment below).
I believe in a God who heals – not all of the time, as the Bible tells us the kingdom of God has not fully come on earth yet (or why would Jesus tell us to pray “Your kingdom come”) – but even so, a God who heals frequently in response to prayer. These healings can be terminal cancer, a twisted ankle, and also coronavirus.
In the story here, David Francis had good reason to think…

Angelic presence at No. 10 Downing Street, London – Veronika West
After listening whilst gardening to Chuck Pierce talking to Dutch Sheets about this year’s Passover being like the first; a significant turning point in global history…I was attentive to all his references regarding the pandemic and noted neither mentioned the most significant similarity: being preceded by plague and pestilence. Upon getting indoors I find Veronika’s posted this:
“AN ANGELIC MESSENGER OF THE LORD SENT TO No. 10”…!
While praying this morning for Prime Minister Boris Johnson I was caught up in a vision where I was standing in front of No.10 and an Angel of the Lord Appeared beside the Door of No.10 and I saw written upon his chest was the number ’10’ and suddenly I saw the numbers ‘1010’ come up before me and I heard these words, “THE THIEF COMES ONLY TO STEAL, KILL AND DESTROY; I HAVE COME THAT THEY MAY HAVE LIFE AND HAVE IT TO THE FULL”….John 10:10.
As I heard those words, I looked again at the Angel of the Lord and the Spirit of Revelation then quickened to me DANIEL 10, and immediately I recognised that the Angel was A MESSENGER OF THE LORD SENT TO INFORM US THAT A MIGHTY BATTLE IS RAGING IN REALM OF THE SPIRIT RIGHT NOW OVER THE NATION AND EVEN THAT OF BORIS JOHNSON.., BUT THAT WE ARE NOT TO BE AFRAID! BUT FROM THE MOMENT OUR PRAYERS WERE HEARD, HEAVEN HAS MOVED ON OUR BEHALF…..(LET US CONTINUE PRAYING UNTIL THE VICTORY IS MADE FULLY MANIFEST)…,
…and as I watched the Angel of the Lord suddenly I saw him lift a sword up over the Door of No.10 and in the twinkling of an eye I saw the 10 Plagues of Egypt come up before me and the “10th” plague being when the FIRST BORN was killed and then I heard these words, “PUT THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB ON THE DOORPOST FOR THE SPIRIT OF DEATH WILL PASS OVER”…as I heard those words, I saw the Angel then lift up his sword again for a second time and a man appeared before the Door of No 10 and he knelt down before the Angel of the Lord and I watched as the Messenger of the Lord took his sword and ‘KNIGHTED THE MAN’ and suddenly the ‘LIGHTS OF NO 10 CAME ON IN THE BACKGROUND’…
and then I heard these words,
“FOR A PEOPLE WALKING IN DARKNESS WILL SEE A GREAT LIGHT, FOR THOSE WHO LIVE IN A LAND OF DEEP DARKNESS, A LIGHT WILL SHINE”
...on hearing those words, it as quickened to me ‘ISAIAH 9’…and then I watched as the Messenger Angel of the Lord departed and the man stood up and walked into the Door of No. 10…!
55…HOPE AND DOUBLE GRACE…!
Forgot to share; But As I was praying after the vision I saw the NUMBER 5…and then I saw TWO FIVES (55) and I heard the words “HOPE AND DOUBLE GRACE”…it was immediately quickened to me…Romans 5:5 that says, “And HOPE does not disappoint us, because God has poured out His love into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, whom He has given us”..,then I heard “WITH SHOUTS OF GRACE, GRACE TO IT”…!
“What are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become a plain. Then he will bring forth the capstone accompanied by shouts of ‘Grace, grace to it!’”
As I prayed concerning these two verses which I felt were significant for both BJ and our Nation, the Lord quickened to me Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s age…He is 55 yrs old….and I heard the Spirit say,
“DOUBLE GRACE SHALL BE POURED OUT UPON THIS LAND AND UPON ITS PEOPLE, WATCH! FOR THE MOUNTAIN SHALL BECOME A PLAIN AND THE CAPSTONE SHALL COME FORTH, FOR NOW I AM BUILDING AND ESTABLISHING MY KINGDOM PURPOSES IN THIS NATION”..!
RB: AMEN, and again Amen.

A separation is occurring, and a line is being drawn.There are two plans at work and two blueprints in play.Which side prevails depends on the state of our hearts and the clarity of our vision.

Further to my reference in the previous post to Catch The Fire in Farnborough, Hants, the senior leader Revd Christopher Bird aims to have its official launch in September. Before then, a ‘thought for the day’ and a weekly teaching from Christopher at 7pm every Sunday is ‘live’ on its Facebook page.
Nina and I were invited to join its second weekly video meeting last Wednesday evening and got online just in time to hear Christopher outlining this new church’s DNA, viz:
-
- committed to welcoming the presence of God;
- being disciples who make disciples, and
- cultivating a true sense of family.
On the first point he taught about the meaning of and necessity for new wineskins and how this applies to churches, and as an example referred to Moses’ encounter of the Glory of God. On being told to “Lead these people” Moses reacted that he’d not been told whom God would send with him and quoting the Lord, “I know you by name and You have found favour with me” asked, “If you are pleased with me, teach me Your ways so I may know You and continue to find favour with You…” Exodus 33:13 NIV).
The LORD replied, “My Presence will go with you and I will give you rest.” The rest of the passage is conversation about God’s Presence, and then He showed Moses His Glory!!!
My finger remained in those pages when we turned to the Gospels but I got impelled to go back and noted Exod 34:10 as being what the Lord is promising us today!
The Covenant Renewed
10 And He said: “Behold, I make a covenant. Before all your people I will do [a]marvels such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the Lord. For it is an awesome thing that I will do with you.” [NKJV courtesy Biblegateway.com]
SO, this morning I find that Veronika West has published a confirmation on her ministry Facebook(emphases mine):
‘Yesterday I heard the Lord say so clearly,
“WATCH! FOR NEW WINE SKIN MINISTRIES ARE NOW BEING BIRTHED IN THE EARTH”…!
‘
When I heard the Spirit say those words, I saw a NEW BREED OF MINISTRIES BEING BIRTHED in this time of RESET…,I saw the words ‘DYNAMIC’ AND ‘DUNAMIS POWER.’…THEN I SAW DIVINE EXPLOSIONS WHICH WERE TAKING PLACE IN THE REALM OF THE SPIRIT….AND THEN I HEARD THE SOUND OF MANY RUSHING WATERS….AND I COULD SEE WELLS OPENING UP ACROSS THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH…!
‘THESE ARE THE WELLS OF REVIVAL…BURSTING FORTH UPON THE NATIONS WITH THE NEW WINE OF THE SPIRIT AND WITH THE DUNAMIS POWER OF GOD…!
‘Ps; I will let you into a conversation I had with a dear friend who shared with me that the Lord had given her the word “FUNNEL” while she was praying…and so she asked if I had some insights…and this was what the Lord showed me;
“The funnel is so interesting, I thought straight away of the NARROW PLACE…a PLACE OF BIRTHING….! Also A TIME WHERE THINGS ARE BEING BROUGHT TO A HEAD/POINT!!! A place of DIVINE CONVERGENCE…!
‘A Time of FRESH INFILLING, OUTPOURING AND RELEASE. I hear the words, “A SEASON OF DIVINE DECANTING”… gradually pour (wine, port, or another liquid) from one container into another, typically in order to separate out sediment.
‘Often a FUNNEL IS USED TO DECANT WINE….! I believe this is a TIME OF DIVINE SEPARATION, THE SEDIMENT AND IMPURITIES ARE BEING REMOVED….’NO MORE MIXTURE’…EVERYTHING DEFILED AND UNCLEAN MUST BE DONE AWAY WITH.
‘I SEE A HOLY PURITY COMING FORTH IN THE EARTH….A PURE AND UNDEFILED MOVEMENT OF THE SPIRIT THAT WILL REDEFINE MINISTRIES FOREVER…HE IS REPOSITIONING AND REALIGNING THOSE WHO HAVE ‘CLEAN HANDS AND PURE HEARTS’ WITH ‘A NEW WINE SKIN MOVEMENT’ THAT IS BEING BIRTHED IN THE EARTH.
‘There is a “DIVINE DECANTING TAKING PLACE, A DIVINE EXCHANGE…AND A SUPERNATURAL TRANSFORMATION”…!!
‘I hear the words, “NEW WINESKIN MINISTRIES ARE NOW BEING BIRTHED IN THE EARTH …!
‘If you have not already read this powerful dream please prayerfully do so, it speaks to the ‘OIL OF HEALING AND THE VINEYARDS OF NEW WINE’;
