Richard’s Watch goes full-circle: 10 – Obama and nuclear Iran

Reference: Nine years three weeks and 635 tagged posts ago :

Is the Lord exposing rotten politics? UK, USA…EU??

Pertinent points therein of 26th May 2016:

‘President Obama’s unwelcome interference in the UK/EU Referendum and now his aide Ben Rhodes’ outrageous boasting about their manipulating media lackies with fiction and duplicity over the Iran nuclear deal. For the reasons behind this expose read here. (White House Christian correspondent Bill Koenig often refers to incompetence and lack of required experience and skills of Potus’ aides.) 

NB: The admittance to secret contact with Iran as early as 2011 is incorrect – TWO years too late! It started very early in Obama’s first term and prior to his infamous Cairo speech, as I wrote 7 years ago (18 May 2009) in Today’s Importance in History

‘this [diplomatic storm] involved attempts to turn the Arab world and Europe against Israel, and to appease Iran – even to ‘blackmailing’ Israel over its nuclear defence! (It’s reported Obama wanted to be able to use Iran’s territory for supplying US troops in Afghanistan and Pakistan.) Also, there’s been dismay in Cairo and Riyadh over his courting the terrorist mentors in Teheran.’  [per DebkaFile intelligence reports].’

The American issue has since developed: The White House refuses to let Rhodes testify  (Fox News 17 May). Yesterday Reuters reports on the Hilary Clinton’s illegal activities, Clinton email server broke government rules.  HA! LOL!  Maybe that’s why mine was giving me such serious bother this morning 🙂

Also today, the Telegraph Tax Investigation into Trump was published; ie. a report on the presumptive Republican presidential nominee’s US tax avoidance activities.

All that’s probably nothing compared with the EU, which hasn’t been able to publish any certified accounts for donkey’s years!!’

Scanning my phone over lunch I recalled capturing this yesterday but didn’t get around to blogging in view of preceding items – and yet again ‘22‘ happens to pop up:

Mossad Intel Alleges Iran Nuclear Deal Funds Fueled Weapons Program, Implicates Obama-Era Officials

By Jonathan Gregory (Facebook and at Newsmax)
Washington, D.C. — June 16, 2025

A bombshell intelligence report from Israel’s Mossad has uncovered that vast sums of money released to Iran under the 2015 nuclear agreement were funneled (sic) directly into secret nuclear weapons development, contrary to the stated purpose of the deal.

According to senior intelligence officials, newly declassified documents and intercepted communications suggest that Iranian leadership used much of the estimated $50 billion in accessible frozen assets and U.S. payments not for economic relief, but to accelerate illicit weapons programs. Most explosively, the report alleges that key figures in the Obama administration were aware of the high risk that the funds could be diverted, but proceeded regardless, raising serious concerns about complicity or, at minimum, gross negligence.

The nuclear deal, formally known as the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), was heralded by the Obama administration as a historic diplomatic achievement meant to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. As part of the agreement, international sanctions were lifted, allowing Iran to access tens of billions of dollars in frozen funds, resume oil sales, and re-enter global financial markets. Additionally, the U.S. paid $1.7 billion to Iran to settle an old legal claim, with $400 million in cash delivered in coordination with the release of American prisoners. Mossad’s intelligence now claims that these payments, and the broader windfall from the deal, were rapidly redirected into uranium enrichment, missile technology, and the expansion of covert facilities, violating both the spirit and letter of the JCPOA.

These revelations spark a political firestorm in Washington and beyond. The report not only validates long-standing warnings from critics who argued the JCPOA lacked sufficient safeguards, it also implicates former senior U.S. officials in enabling the very nuclear threat the deal aimed to prevent. Calls are already growing for a full congressional investigation into the handling of the funds and the intelligence assessments at the time. The Biden administration, which has sought to revive the deal, now faces a major credibility test amid growing international skepticism over Iran’s intentions and outrage over how U.S. taxpayer resources may have empowered a hostile regime.

“WAKE UP! You’re sleepwalking past Me!”

A HUGE THANK YOU LORD!

After many “Wake Up!” calls on this blog over several years, together with increasing global calls recently from prophetical voices, this prophetic word from the Lord is now received by leading intercessors, as shown by this Emmaus Road church video and replayed at 3Counties Vineyard church on Pentecost Sunday.

Pete Greig is the ‘bewildered founder of the 24-7 Prayer movement, an award-winning author of nine books, and a co-host of the much-loved daily devotional Lectio365 used by 330,000 people’ [Bio here].

20,131 views Jun 2, 2025 – Statistics and news articles are confirming that the Lord is moving in our midst. Pete unpacks a powerful prophetic word calling us to wake up—to rise from spiritual slumber and respond to the Spirit’s urgent invitation for personal and corporate awakening.’

Here’s my edited extract (emphases mine) of the transcript with Pete’s introduction to prophecy and to Benjamin Downing’s recounting what he’d heard the Lord telling him:

“Whatever this quiet revival means I can tell you for a fact, it’s not starting out there somewhere; it’s got to start in here in me, in you, with a revival in our own relationships with Jesus. You want to catch the wave (so) make sure the quiet revival is happening in your own heart right now…

In Emmaus Road we seek to be a Christ-centred, mission-minded and spirit-led community and that means that we try to be open to the interruptions of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes he’s in the structures and the plans but sometimes you know he’s like
the wind, he’s like fire, he surprises us and that’s why this evening we are going to do things a little bit differently.
A few months ago a much loved member of this church Benjamin Downing came to me saying I think God has spoken to me and he had received a prophetic word that you’re going to hear in a moment. When he shared it with me all I can say is it felt weighty.
So, the majority of prophetic words are as the apostle Paul says in 1 Corinthians 14 they’re for the encouragement, the strengthening, the up-building of the church and you know they they bring some edification. That’s fantastic. But every now and then God speaks in a way that feels more than that; it feels substantial and directive and you know, you can tell that really by three things:
Firstly, the circumstances in which the word is received;
Secondly, the context into which it speaks and,
Thirdly, the confirmation that the word elicits, the circumstances in which uh the word is received.
You’re going to hear that it is really very supernatural how Benjamin received this.

The context: well I think as you hear, it will say “Yep that relates exactly to our current cultural moment and maybe things you’re experiencing in your own lives.”

And confirmation: I can tell you that since Benjamin shared this word uh with me a number of people have received similar, you know, prophetic senses from the Lord without consulting with each other.
And so that always makes me sit up and take notice. As elders we’ve talked and prayed and, “Yeah we really feel like God is saying this to the church.”
So this is a significant moment because we want to just kind of release this word into the church.
Benjamin’s going to share it then I’m going to wrap a little scripture around it and then we’re going to give an opportunity for those who’d like to do so to respond personally and for us to respond corporately as a church….”
[Benjamin]
“A few months ago I was woken by an audible voice which is not something that happens all the time – unless my wife’s waking me up, (who) on this occasion was 12,000 miles away…

So about 5:00 in the morning this audible voice said, “Wake up!” And so I was startled by because it was such a clear voice; so I jumped into my spiritual action and ran downstairs thinking “I’ve got to answer the door, it must be someone at the front door – no one’s there, it’s 5:00 in the morning, it’s it’s a Sunday.”… I go back to bed and think okay I’m just going to pray maybe that was not something of God.

So I just prayed and kind of rested in that and thought “I wonder what that was about?”

I came to church, which was logistics in itself, and during the service and those hours after, I realized that God was trying to say something specific about that ‘wake up’ for me. I then also walked forward after the service and Pete actually had the privilege of praying that as I wept and as I spoke out I just felt that God was challenging me.
As Pete says – he’s often really encouraging in my life –  but He’s, God’s challenging me to say “You’re sleepwalking through this life, you’re sleepwalking through it and you need to wake up! You’re waking up…you’re busy with life…with distractions… with purchasing stuff – all of these things. You need to wake up because every morning I’m sitting in your room and you’re walking past Me, you’re walking past Me. I want to be part of your life, want to speak in relationship with you and over those coming days and weeks.”
It was about 60 days in the end of just saying every time the urge to purchase something or get on the BBC news channel or whatever, it was just suppressing that and saying “Lord what is it you want to speak?” And he’s like, “I’ve got words for you I’ve got plans for you and you’re not listening.”
So in those times it was really really stark and yet he says “I just want your attention i just want you to change and so wake up!”  and actually the thing that’s done for me is actually just allow me to create time every day where I’m trying to slow it down, where I’m trying to be attentive not to the words of news or sport or whatever, but actually to my life and where God’s speaking, challenging at times about purity and holiness; but also just about this idea of don’t just fall back into ways and habits and normal things of life…”
[Applause – Pete] “Benjamin, I think the Holy Spirit is saying to many of us in this room as individuals and people who are watching online and I think He’s saying actually to this church at this time; “Wake up!” When someone hears the audible voice of God we should wake up, we should sit up and say, “Hang on what’s that about?” And I want to say to you very clearly, I don’t think that you know that God’s angry – this isn’t a rebuke. I think God is urgent – there’s that sense of “wake up, don’t miss this moment!”
So let’s turn to the scriptures together…”  Ephesians 5 (8mins time-stamp):

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) 10 and find out what pleases the Lord. 11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. 12 It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret. 13 But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. 14 This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead,  and Christ will shine on you.

The next post continues with illustrated notes of the teaching points and links to over a dozen “Wake up!” postings during the past ten years…

President Trump testifies FOR Jesus, thus for God’s Kingdom

A couple of folk on my Facebook queried President Trump being a Christian, which shows some in the Lord need more information (or maybe politically prejudiced?) and to seek Him direct about His ‘David’ and his God-sent mission, as extensively researched and outlined on this blog.

My foundational reason for knowing with certainty is through two unsought personal revelations brought in the observed power of Holy Spirit upon my dear wife Nina when she twice saw him on TV (POTUS Watch refers).  NB; she does not follow prophets, read or discuss Christian broadcasts, or my blogging and neither of us watch the news – moreover, living in the UK we’ve absolutely no political axe to grind on this, other than what the Lord reveals!

On top of that, there’s countless fulfilled prophecies, hundreds of which are from just the few prophets I’ve blogged upon.

So, I here’s two video shorts of President Trump’s own comments and I wish to draw your attention to the fuller coverage linked below.:

“The Crucible of Patmos” is Key to the Valley of Vision – Veronika West

Last weekend a second powerful prophetic vision of personal relevance after that of the previous post, but for reasons relating to my dream Father, Let Your Kingdom Come!  (2011) not only for its location but also untold name directly echoing “Patmos” (!), was that told by Veronika West on her Facebook.

Thus, it’s effectively the 11th posting of the full-circle, wheels-within-wheels series! And so I’m grateful to Angus MacKillop for permitting use of images from His Kingdom Prophecy:

 A NOW WORD: “THE KEY TO THE VALLEY OF VISION IS THE CRUCIBLE OF PATMOS”

So, I had a powerful and profound Dream which I believe and submit, is speaking to The Body of Christ and particularly to the Prophets — to those who are seeking a greater level and measure of Prophetic Revelation, Illumination and Understanding.

A short dream – but powerful

This Valley I knew by Revelation in the dream, was “The Valley of Vision,” and I saw from a distance that the landscape of the Valley before me was rugged and the terrain looked difficult to traverse — jagged rocks jutted out from the hillsides, and the narrow paths that marked the landscape looked somewhat daunting.

The atmosphere in the dream was thick, and yet weighty and again I knew by Revelation that the very ground I was standing on was shrouded in Divine Mystery and Hidden Secrets.

Now, as stepped forward in the Dream, I felt a Mantle come upon me.

( It was almost as if I was being clothed and prepared spiritually to enter into The Valley of Vision.

I was taking on the very fabric of the Valley, the spiritual texture of that deeper dimension of the Spirit was coming upon me which would enable and empower me to both receive and carry what would be imparted to me should I enter in. )

But as I took another step forward towards The Valley of Vision, not only did I feel a tangible sense of great weight now upon me, but suddenly my Vision began to take on greater clarity, and just as I was about to take another step towards The Valley of Vision, I saw what looked like an Ancient Door suddenly appear before me.

As I looked at the door, I saw the Word, ”PATMOS” deeply engraved upon this Ancient Door!

Ha! Immediately in the Dream, it was quickened to me of John, who was sent to the Isle of Patmos where he wrote the Book of Revelation. [RB: aka ‘The Apocalypse’]

Now, as I stood in that place, I knew by The Spirit that the Ancient Door that stood before me in the Dream was like that of the Door of Revelation 4.

“After this I looked, and there before me was a Door standing open in heaven. And the voice I had first heard speaking to me like a trumpet said, “Come up here, and I will show you what must take place after this.” Revelation 4:1.

As I looked and looked again at the Word “Patmos” engraved upon the Ancient Door, again I knew by Revelation that the Door was Living — it was Alive!

The Ancient Door was full of The Glory of The LORD, and the Ancient Door seemed to recognise me, as a Son of Righteousness.

( Even the fact that I was being given access to traffic in this Realm and dimension in The Spirit, through a Dream, I knew that I was Marked to be there — Called — to become a Partaker of a greater level and Dimension of The Vision Realm of the Glory. )

But as I stood in that Sacred Place, I was made to understand by The Spirit of Revelation that this was not exclusive to me, but rather this was an Invitation to the Prophets — to those in The Body of Christ — who are seeking the Face of God in this Season, for the unveiling and the revealing of the Knowledge of Christ unto greater Transformation and Reformation of The Nations.

The Glory Hunters were being Invited to “go beyond” the shallows in this Season — to “go higher” — to go where “Deep Calls Unto Deep…” (Psalm 42:7)

In the Dream, I could tangibly feel The Glory of The LORD — the weight of The Spirit of The Fear of The LORD filled the atmosphere!

Yet I knew that I was being given and shown a powerful and strategic message for the hour — a Message to the 11th Hour Prophets!

And though I was being given permission to stand before the Ancient Door, I was not yet permitted to go beyond the Door, even though there was a Invitation to “Come up here! Come up higher!”

In the Dream, I began to inquire of The Holy Spirit asking, ”Spirit of Wisdom, what must I do to enter into The Valley of Vision””

In reply I heard these Words, “The Key to The Valley of Vision, is the Crucible of PATMOS!”

I woke up!

As you can imagine, I was now wide awake; grabbing my journal; writing everything down!

But the first thing I wrote was; “The Key to The Valley of Vision is the Crucible of PATMOS…..”

I immediately felt to look up the word PATMOS — Meaning ; “My killing.” (Thayer : #G3963 : Πάτμος — Patmos).

Wow! Now, as I read those words, I believe and humbly submit that God is saying,  ”Patmos is the crucible”, where the fiery trials and tribulations will refine the Faith and deepen the vision of His 11th Hour Prophets into the coming Season.

This Valley of Vision is not one of despair, but rather of the Birth Place of Divine Revelation; glorious Illumination; greater Understanding and Knowledge — which will bring us into a greater measure of the Statue of Christ — the place where the veil is lifted and the 11th Hour Prophets are given unfettered access to look upon His Glory!

Then I heard The Holy Spirit say, Watch and Listen! For I AM Calling My 11th Hour Prophets into The Valley of Vision in this Hour, that their Eyes of Understanding may be Opened — and that what may BECOME what is Beheld!

Yes! For I AM Calling My 11th Hour Prophets to the Crucible of PATMOS — to the Place of Death unto greater Life and a Greater degree of the Vision — through the Light of My Glory and Power!

I say again, a Crucial of Patmos, where the Fires of Purification will bring forth greater Humility and Purity to My 11th Hour Prophets — an Invitation — to enter into a sacred place — the Birthing place of True Vision — The Valley of Vision — where the flesh dies in order that the Spiritual Senses can come Alive, and are fully Awakened, Illuminated and Ignited!”

Friends, ”The invitation is Open! It’s NOW — and it’s time to Respond in total Surrender, Faith and with Radical Expectation!”

Blessings to you all.

Wheels-within-wheels of prophecies and news as this blog does full circles!!

Spiral Clock courtesy of Bigstock

Although a tad long-winded title, Richard’s Watch Goes Full-Circle postings focus upon specific content raised years ago as now returning to our attention. In fact, such cyclical writing had been noticed long before I noticed the increased frequency, or acceleration, of such recurrences. Continue reading

The Lord ‘coincidentally’ intervenes a third time!

Further to yesterday’s ‘God-incidence’ over my focus on Jesus’ post-Resurrection life and our daily devotional book’s reference to Jesus (‘MIA’ – Missing In Action) suddenly materialising in His disciples’ private, closed room and what He said being part of my possible blogging plans, plus the post with videos on His Burial Shroud, yet another scripture turned up at the close of Wednesday!

At last night’s local ‘upper room’ Bible study I mentioned in passing about the probable quantum dynamics nature of the Shroud.  Although we’d been reading the first chapters of Acts of The Apostles our house-leader had decided to change to Paul’s letter to the Ephesian church.  Being the second meeting on this, we read from chapter 1 verse 15 (NIV, per my Bible, emphases mine):

 ‘For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit[f] of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know Him better. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength He exerted when He raised Christ from the dead and seated him at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come. 22And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills everything in every way.’

The closing phrase of verse 23 struck me strongly as describing the reality of what had happened to Jesus during His Resurrection, as now scientifically discovered about its properties being not only evidential proof of pivotal, historic events but also pointing to the effects of quantum dynamics and ALL that entails in Jesus’ remaining life on earth.

The Amplified Bible is perhaps more specific in its rendition of verse 23:

Which is His body, the fullness of Him Who fills all in all’ [for in that body lives the full measure of Him Who makes everything complete, and Who fills everything everywhere with Himself].’

Returning home and reviewing this week’s first posting (..overtaken by time) I noticed the Lord had worked yet another ‘God-incidental’ precision timing in my digging around.

Usually when inserting a video into a blog I don’t copy any description, BUT upon doing so for that post I’d copied a video description that shows both my childhood home (212) and birthday (22) numbers – their frequent repetition seems to confirm His leading, as first noted in the second and third validations of my testimonial recounted herein.

NOW, what about the remaining numbers ‘1’ and ‘6’ (1+6=7) in those total views??

Of course, they turned upon in this morning’s devotional about the seven disciples going fishing and one (Peter) jumping into the sea, with six remaining in their boat..:

The Lord of Time intervenes to confirm blogging intention – 2

Further to my musing of yesterday, I was happily astonished that this morning the Lord confirmed my notion of inserting verses 19-20 of John 20 into my proposed reprise posts.

THEY FEATURE IN OUR DEVOTIONAL!!

First thing every day we read from David Strutt’s Sanctuary – Moments In His Presence, mentioned frequently herein, and his April diary is based upon a late April date for Easter.

So, here’s a copy of recent days leading to today’s of 30th April and I hope these images are legible. My printer/scanner is malfunctioning and indoor/outdoor photography gave varying results:

Truly, ‘God-incidental’…the Lord’s given His ‘OK’.

The Lord of Time intervenes to confirm blogging intention – 1

MY, OH MY!!

Blogging’s been on the back-burner because our mix of activities after return from and still in holiday-mode, Spring gardening plus necessary matters put writing on hold. So, no plans other than hoping to find time as and when available to follow-up perhaps – as in previous years – on the Resurrection theme and what Jesus really looks like.

Moreover, regarding recent postings on cyclical wheels-within-wheels of old topics, last Sunday at church Graham Sharp spoke about believers’ cyclical progression in our own displaying and conveying Holy Spirit’s love (video plays from start of his teaching):

Observe>Thank>Consider>Ask>Partner>>Observe>Thank>Consider>Ask>Partner>>>

Graham referred to John’s account of Jesus appearing to the Twelve out of thin air as they met behind closed doors on that first night after His Resurrection, and likened that pivotal day to the first day in a New Creation. Also, I thus realised that was the start of the answer to the prayer Jesus taught them to ask Father, “Thy Kingdom come…”!

Afterwards, I was very pleased to learn that Graham knows about the Shroud of Turin and its astonishing scientific properties.

Thus, I was encouraged to add to my regular post on the Shroud with recent videos, as in the previous post, before proceeding with the usual follow-on postings of old. So I pieced together some bits about the Shroud of Turin, as in yesterday’s post, only to be then led to feature a 9 years-old post on Time atop the blog’s home-page for reference. Also, upon re-reading that and associated prophetic word I expanded upon the quantum reference within the Resurrection Sunday post, viz:

‘After all, the disciples had already witnessed Jesus walking on water but were yet to be surprisingly but joyously stunned Him by His turning up in their midst, materialising, in a private room behind closed doors for fear of the Jews (John 20:19) – maybe quantum dynamics principle of ‘tunnelling’, as in On Engaging and Governing Time, came into play? – then forty days later watch Him flying bodily upwards into the clouds!’

However, mulling over my intentions for the next posts, maybe I’d insert a scripture to introduce and connect into the personal revelations told in the old posts??

BUT, what’s more, the Lord had already arranged for a ‘God-incidental’ confirmation of that possible action….as in part 2.

My eagle’s full circle flight, with God-incidental prophets’ words

PREFACE:

The metaphorical, ‘wheels within wheels’ may be regarded as ‘wings’, for planes can circle in flight – as do predatory birds. NOTE WHAT HAPPENS AS I WRITE > using my phone before leaving home I’m inserting this preface into the draft done yesterday, but this confirmatory message suddenly drops down from prophet Mike Thomson, and with ’22’ timing!

Now to continue with what I’d prepped:

INTRODUCTION

In Why Write/Blog I recount this personally powerful event on what would have been my late father’s birthday on 13th July 1996 at a St Andrews, Chorleywood, workshop convened by the vicar of St Marks, Upper Basildon, Berkshire.

‘Being a relatively young Christian (prophecy) was new to me and I’d not heard anyone teach about the gift of prophecy…This time at the workshop, after a very brief outline of the subject the lady teaching us directed us to stand in a line. Then she walked by each of us in turn and said something. Even now, I see her standing in front of me – her eyes practically popping out of her head staring at something right over my own head – an eagle!’

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

And so to this stirring confirmation heard by our dear sister in the Lord:

A WORD TO THE PROPHETIC EAGLES

A Word to the Prophetic Eagles

So very early this morning [10th April] I was woken to these Words: ”Watch! For My Eagles MUST rise higher!
My Eagles MUST Enter into the eye of the coming Storm — for in the eye, there is an impartation of greater Vision, Revelation and Prophetic Illumination for navigating the days ahead!
My spiritual Storm Riders are rising — as the Fiery Furnace is being turned up!”

I hear The Spirit say, ”As you decrease, so I will Increase! As you go lower, so I will take you higher!
For I will resist the proud and the arrogant — and those who are puffed up in their own achievements and accomplishments have no part in Me!
Beloved, you have a high Calling! You are My Ambassadors, My Representatives on the earth.
There is no need to hold onto the honour and recognition that the world bestows, but rather embrace the Grace that I give to the humble, for a broken and contrite heart mark those who have been chosen for true greatness,
So, lay aside your own abilities, your plentiful resources — and your fierce determination to do things in your might and human power — and let My Spirit bring you guidance.
Let My Holy Spirit pour into your life like the oil that fueled Zechariah’s lamp-stand. (Zechariah 4)
I tell you, human weakness is no obstacle, for My Power is perfected in the face of hardships, times of difficulty and persecution.
When you are weak, I AM strong!
Let Me free you from your enemies, and not with weapons, armies, horses and charioteers — but by My Power, as The LORD your God!
Let My Spirit guarantee you success and Victory in the midst of conflict and chaos!
I say to you, do not be anxious about the future, Wars or rumours of wars, the rising fuel prices and the cost of living, what you will eat and what you will wear!
Has not My Mercy always made a way where there seemed no way?
Has not My Grace always been sufficient for you?
And has not My Wisdom brought unexpected answers and timely solutions?
My Child, can you think of one time in your life when My Love ran out on you?
NO! For did I not promise to never, no never, no never ever to leave you or abandon you? (Hebrews 13:5)
But look! Though the Storm Clouds are gathering — fear not!
For the Light of My Glory lines every dark cloud on the horizon, and My Grace flows beneath every cross-current.
For surely I tell you, even the contrary Winds will only accelerate you closer to the Divine Destiny I have for you.
Stop leaning on your own understanding and thinking you know what is best. (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Every obstacle on your path, and every valley on your journey only propels you higher and takes you deeper into the Place of Promise and greater Prosperity that has been prepared for you. (Jeremiah 29:11)
I only give the greatest battles to My Strongest Warriors.
I AM purposeful and deliberate in all that I do in your life. Seasons of testing and trials are inevitable — though I understand you may seek at times after a life of ease and comfort.
I know that this would counterproductive — even destructive — to the Destiny I have for you!
My Ways may seem harsh and My methods controversial — and even contradictory to the ways of the world — but I AM more concerned about your Character, Beloved, than I AM about your comfort and ease.
A True Disciple is what I AM fashioning and forming within you — one who will see the violent winds and the raging waves but will fearlessly and courageously step out of the boat to walk on the waters with Me!
One who has no fear of man and will walk into the Fiery Furnace with Me.
One whom I can trust in which to manifest Mt Glory on the Earth!
Beloved, so, be patient! Hold fast, though the days are getting darker, the Light of My Glory is getting brighter — and Know that sufferings and afflictions are all working towards a consuming Glory — a Glory that shall diminish the darkness.
Therefore, lift up your voices — not in complaining or in unbelief — but in high Praises coming from a heart full of Hope, Expectation and Faith!
Rejoice in the Victory promised but not yet seen!
Celebrate in advance — for the Triumph that is already yours!
Let the sound of a New Song fill and shift the atmosphere of doubt and fear. Satan cannot stand in the presence of Praise — his demonic assignments are cut down and his evil deeds are dismantled and demolished.
Finally Beloved, My Mighty Overcoming Ones — let this day not be a day of lethargy and passivity, regrets or complacency, but let this be the hour when you arise as My Spiritual Storm-Riders.
As you place your life under My Loving Hand, I will lift you up and strengthen your bones. (Isaiah 41:10)
Only believe that I have formed and fashioned you for higher things — to Rule and Reign from Heavenly Places, that you may take the land I have allotted to you as your Kingdom Inheritance!
I say “Take it! Take it now — and occupy till I come!””

Blessings to you all.

PROLOGUE:

One of my favourite commands, “Occupy ’til I come!”

11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear. 12 He said therefore, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return. 13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, ‘Occupy till I come’….” (Luke 19:11-13 KJV)

For example, on Richard’s Watch:

WOWEE! At just the right time – Romans 5:6

Upon waking and after greeting the Lord for the day, my thoughts turned to updating this blog’s End-times Briefings to refer to the possible ‘kick-start’ to timing of ‘End-times’ with the birth of modern Israel in 1948, as in Neil Mackereth’s paper on Ten Scriptures!

Moreover, there’s couple more items on this blog having now gone ‘full circle’ to write. With those notions nudging me I’m then astonished to read this implicit God-incidental confirmation from BibleGateway (per Deut 19:15 principle)

SELAH!

The Days of Elijah ARE here – Smith-Wigglesworth’s vision of Britain

Three leaders’ teaching and impartation sessions at last weekend’s national prophetic conference were truly very powerful, as briefly related in the previous post.

👉Time for the Church to Roar
👉Rise of Holy Breakers & Disrupters to Challenge Religious Structures.
👉Acceleration of the Church into Maturity
👉Shifting Away from the ‘Pastor/Teacher’ Model of Church into 5-Fold
👉Time for the Growth of House Church.
👉Shifting & Change for the Church. Reformation Level Change.

In addition to Veronika West’s prolific Facebook posts it was valuable hearing her deep insights into the Lord’s shaking, removing and restoring the nations to their foundations in Him.

What I particularly took on-board in view of a persistent inkling for going higher beyond blogging, was her frequent emphasis upon “TARRY!” – get closer and spend longer with the Lord and be consecrated; similarly to the disciples’ obedience to Jesus’ command prior to His Ascension and release of the Holy Spirit.

Veronika told delegates to open our Bibles at Luke 24:49 and I was STUNNED to find the words she stressed about ‘tarrying’ – “stay…until” are already underlined in my pocket Bible, as shown below (NIV 1996, so I’d marked them many years ago):

NOW, I note especially verse 45 on Jesus opening the disciples’ minds to understand the Scriptures!

Moreover, in Veronika’s explanations of what she believes the Lord will soon be bringing about, I pointed out all this may relate to the astonishing vision of Britain that renowned healing evangelist Smith Wigglesworth was given in 1947 (my birth year). I was blessed to witness his prayer partner experiencing it too, as recounted in my email 26 May 2011:

SMITH-WIGGLESWORTH’s VISION OF BRITAIN (1947)

‘If it may help you to connect into this word I’d first like to tell of an event in 1997.

At a prayer for revival I had the privilege of meeting 80 years old Rev Norman James, prayer partner of the renowned ‘apostle of faith’, Smith Wigglesworth.

When this small group stood in a close circle to pray, Norman was less than a yard right in front of me. As he was quite short my eyes opened to gaze fully into his face and I couldn’t help but notice his eyes alight with excitement. A huge, beaming smile – he was radiant!

Norman could hardly speak, save to whisper,

“I’ve just seen what Wigglesworth saw – Britain in revival, on fire for the Lord!”

Ever so briefly he explained that in Wigglesworth’s 88th year the Lord had given him a vision of a future revival in Britain. He knew it would happen decades ahead but he so desperately desired to see such days. Thus Norman confided, “No wonder he wanted the Lord to keep him alive!. But he just couldn’t find the words to describe its wonder.

Smith Wigglesworth’s prophecy about a coming move of the Holy Spirit in the UK, is as follows:

TWO DISTINCT MOVES
During the next few decades there will be two distinct moves of the Holy Spirit across the church in Great Britain. The first move will affect every church that is open to receive it and will be characterized by a restoration of the baptism and gifts of the Holy Spirit. The second move of the Holy Spirit will result in people leaving historic churches and planting new churches. In the duration of each of these moves, the people who are involved will say “This is the great revival”. But the Lord says “No, neither is this the great revival but both are steps towards it”.

WORD AND SPIRIT
When the new church phase is on the wane, there will be evidenced in the churches something that has not been seen before: a coming together of those with an emphasis on the Word and those with an emphasis on the Spirit.

When the Word and the Spirit come together, there will be the biggest movement of the Holy Spirit that the nation, and indeed the world, has ever seen. It will mark the beginning of a revival that will eclipse anything that has been witnessed within these shores, even the Wesleyan and the Welsh revivals of former years. The outpouring of God’s Spirit will flow over from the UK to the mainland of Europe, and from there will begin a missionary move to the ends of the earth.

For a brief background see the Apostle of Faith on Jonas Clark’s website, or visit the Revival Library’s dedicated website for full biographical accounts and materials.’

The Days of Elijah ARE here – a personal revelation!

Last weekend saw a kind of action-reply – albeit up a level or two! – of what the Lord provided for this blog’s 11th birthday in November 2022 re 11th Hour Prophets, even starting with another God-incidental ‘bumping’ into Veronika West in Portsmouth….

👉Time for the Church to Roar
👉Rise of Holy Breakers & Disrupters to Challenge Religious Structures.
👉Acceleration of the Church into Maturity
👉Shifting Away from the ‘Pastor/Teacher’ Model of Church into 5-Fold
👉Time for the Growth of House Church.
👉Shifting & Change for the Church. Reformation Level Change.

After arriving on Friday evening at Oasis church in Portsmouth I went to its assembly hall and, as the only entry door faces the stage at the far end of the room, I dropped my shoulder bag onto a chair on the nearby rear row and turned on my heels to get a drink from the coffee-room but was very surprised to hear, “Richard, you should be sitting at the front!” – I turned and saw Veronika behind me.

As I’d not been looking into the hall I’d not seen her approaching, presumably having come up the centre aisle from the front-row and en-route to the ‘green room’. In fact, I did intend sitting on the second row anyway, so after our greeting I put bag and jacket there before getting the drink.

The evening started with a brief welcome to delegates and introduction of Veronika and then WE TOOK OFF IN WORSHIP led by guitarist Paul accompanied by the keyboard singer and a drummer into this song of 1994 by Robin Mark….

THEN WOW, AS HOLY SPIRIT CAME I needed to grip the top of front-row chairs in order to stay standing, AS THOUGH I WAS HOLDING ONTO A FLYING CHARIOT !!

I was reminded of prophet Elijah’s ascent into heaven as a whirlwind blew AND THEN COMES THE RENOWNED CHORUS…

WHICH REMINDED ME OF BEING SHOWN (1995)..

As recounted in Triple Validation of The Life-changing Reality of Jesus’ Visitation, “On a healing retreat years later, a minister told me God would show me something after lunch. Indeed, after lunch a stranger who’d been seated at my table confided that the Lord told her to show me something she greatly treasured.

It was a photo taken, it was claimed, from an aircraft over a thunderstorm. When developed, the photo bore an image of Jesus Christ, as though standing within clouds. However, the facial features were hazy, not defined. It was exactly like Jesus in my dream because I’d not seen His face. (I recall dark, hazy clouds at the foot of the image. This one is published by Bible Probe.)

Upon seeing this photo my legs gave way I couldn’t stand but fell into a nearby chair! My companion said I went so white she thought I was going to faint or fall. Yet, just how did a stranger know to show me this photo? I’d not divulged such a personal dream – she simply said, “It’s the Lord’s doing”.

NOW thirty years later, after many minutes worship leader Paul moves into a song new to me, yet the words directly relate to what I was sensing, PLUS my recalling 2 Kings 2 account of Elijah not dying but being taken alive into heaven – a song about believers’ resurrection as in the context of today’s (Monday) BibleGateway Verse of the Day Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord’ .

‘For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection.’ (Romans 6:5, NKJV)

At the closure of the lengthy superb Spirit-filled worship I was reminded of the verse in The Apocalypse on all heaven falling silent for half-an-hour, as New King James Bible states:

Seventh Seal: Prelude to the Seven Trumpets

8 When He opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven for about half an hour. 2 And I saw the seven angels who stand before God, and to them were given seven trumpets.

Now it so happens that on the ‘morrow Mark Iles was to refer many times in his teaching to trumpets being sounded!

Also, worship leader Paul later told me he didn’t have a reason for this sequence of the first two songs, so Holy Spirit must have inspired it. I shared what happened to me and showed him the above photo.

And that was only the start as lots more personal aspects were to follow!!

It proved to be an especially powerful TIME TO BREAKOUT and left me feeling spaced out!!

Exposures of US judiciary go up a gear: 1 – prophecies

Further to our coverage of exposures of political corruption – now in our 10th YEAR! – and its long tentacles threading throughout America’s government and even into its judiciary – as in the later postings of 500 in the Law category – the latest concerns two judges’ conflict of interests and who’ve made major rulings against President Trump.

Further investigations confirm the judge currently in the news and the acting judge who presided in last year’s New York highly controversial case should both have recused themselves from their cases because of a personal conflict of interest through family members’ direct financial involvement with his political opponents within or supporting the Democrat party.

So, it’s not surprising that political corruption has rotted away the once very respected system of jurisprudence based upon the principles of Britain’s Magna Carta. See for example this published in June 2023:

Coincidence? 8th Anniversary Triplet > Magna Carta > US Military Law > Trump’s Escalator Ride!!!

Last year I read several words Julie Green had heard on America’s judiciary but this recent one but this recent one on Molly Krempski’s Facebook video, now transcribed at Sweet Manna Ministries, is an absolutely ACE catch-all (emphases mine):

THE DISMANTLING OF THE ENEMY’S JUDICIAL SYSTEM
– Julie Green, 15 March 2025

“My children, your enemies, are in such a state of disarray, dysfunction, dismay, with such panic and fear. They have turned on each other even more in these days. Disruption and chaos are overwhelming the enemy’s camp. Betrayal is beginning to consume them. Nothing is working, and the ones they used to turn to for leadership and instructions are either abandoning ship or irrelevant anymore to their cause and agendas, because they have failed the establishment from keeping President Trump from the White House.

Now all their secrets are in danger of being exposed and their money drained. They’re hemorrhaging (sic) everywhere they turn. Money, people, their lines of communication, their secrets, they don’t have a way to protect themselves like they used to. Their servers have been hacked. Honey holes are being siphoned, and the DOGE is getting too close to the heart and the main artery of the establishment’s power.

Wall Street, IRS, Act Blue, Big Bank, Silicon Valley, the US Treasury, the Federal Reserve, Ukraine, the WEF, they’re losing the intelligence community, their first line of defense. Every way they turn, there are fires and devastation to their secrets and their system that have kept them alive and in power, but trap after trap was set, and your enemies have fallen for them all.

They enacted their judges to stop President Trump, to delay and to sabotage in every way they can. But every way your enemies have tried to sabotage My David, it was a trap [< NB] that they will not get out of. They are stuck and are sinking quicker in the quicksand of their lies and manipulation.

Judges will fall. Judges will be disbarred, and judges will be tried for treason. Woe to the judges of this land. I am coming for you. You’ve been paid by the enemy to disrupt and delay the truth or destroy it. Your padded pockets will tell the real story who owns you and who your alliance is really with. To the judges in this land of My Eagle against Me and this nation, your time to rule and your time to sentence is over. I AM the Judge over all the earth, and My gavel is coming down to bring true justice to this land once again.


A time of great shaking is coming to the judicial system and a great change there will be with every DOJ, lawyer, prosecutor, AG who are against Me – they will flee. I’ll remove those in unprecedented ways from their powerful positions and this part of the Establishment is being annihilated by My outstretched hand from this land.

My children, hold on for the fight for justice in this land. It will be clear that the end of your enemies is near. You will see one judge after another, you will see one DOJ after another, you will see a collapse of their rulings and of their hold they’ve had to change laws and protect the Establishment. Their time of manipulating and controlling the Justice System is over says the Lord.

Watch the fall of Letitia James. The truth is coming who set her up to go after President Trump. Follow the money; find the truth. Explosive evidence is coming to dismantle every fake indictment against My David, and true justice will be served. Look to who paid Letitia and you will find more evidence, more truth, and you will find the architects who made up all of these fake court cases and charges against him. Letitia, you will be removed by Me says the Lord of Hosts.
Jack Smith, you thought you were sly. You thought you had the protection of the Establishment. You thought that they would never abandon you. What you thought was wrong. I have infiltrated your camp. They know where your orders came from. They have every blueprint and your instructions to go after My David with every form of manipulation of the Law that you possibly could. But everything that you were paid to do and all they’ve blackmailed you with, they have on you will come back and hit you in unprecedented ways. Your exposure and fall will be explosive. Nothing will stop what’s coming for you and that is true justice and My judgment. You can’t hide from Me. Jack Smith, you’re about to reap what you have sown. You want indictments and now they’re coming against you. But these ones are true, and these will stick. Your protection is gone and so is everything that you hold dear because My hand is moving against you and you will never see it coming. And even if you could, you have no power to stop My hand against you, says the Lord of Hosts.
Alvin Bragg, you are a puppet. You are a weasel. Your ties and your lies you were told to say to the public will all come out in explosive ways. You also will be removed from where you are and the ones who paid you are letting you go to save themselves. Alvin Bragg, you are being judged by Me, and your sentence will be handed down and you are guilty and justice will be served, says the Lord.

My children, the Judicial System that has been controlled underground with their secret servers, and their lines of communication has been cut off. Every architect, every blueprint, to weasel their way around the Constitution to protect the Establishment at all cost has been found. Secret emails and instructions – I have it all. And Justice will return once again to this land. For I AM the God that has promised you the removals, and justice to be served. And now you are at that time to see your enemy’s fall like never before, says the Lord Your Redeemer.”

Next, we’ll look at how this week’s news relates to this prophecy’s progress…

Jesus’ End-times parable and Trump’s draining ‘the swamp’

WOW, we’re going ‘full circle’ in 17 years since what I heard about Bible fulfillment upon checking Jesus’ explanation of the wheat and tares parable (first email refers).

In my recent post on Why This Blog Watches American Presidents I state:

2022 – I learn Trump’s personal ‘MAGA’ mission SINCE 2012 is to remove corruption within US politics – ie culling the tares!> So, we’re both on the same page!!’

NOW, last Thursday Derek Johnson alludes to the same parable within this item on RattleTrap1776 Telegram channel seriously questioning events in Ukraine – not to forget the inexplicable missing millions of dollars – as in this extract (emphases mine):

“…What’s the United States of America’s linkage to Ukraine to be the sole-funders and fighters even though there’s zero troops deployed to Ukraine?

The ONLY linkage to the United States of America to Ukraine are the Department of Defense 2004/05 funding of the Biolabs, the 4 Executive Orders and National Emergency declared by Obama in 2014, Biden’s 7 trips in 7 months to Ukraine in 2014, Victoria Nuland’s security of $1 Billion for Ukraine in 2014, the same $1 Billion Biden said would be withheld if a certain prosecutor wasn’t fired (and was fired), Victoria Nuland saying ” **** the European Union” in 2014, John Kerry, Nancy Pelosi, Mitt Romney, and Biden’s children working in Ukraine, making MILLIONS.

Laws and Orders invoked outline a Special Operation via Unconventional Warfare, Irregular Warfare, Clandestine Operations, Covert Operations. 

The Swamp is being drained of the global alliance of bureaucrats, lobbyists and defense contractors as promised.

The 1961 Military Industrial Complex speech is now of the past as the draining of the clowns from the Pentagon and Department of Defense are now gone.

And all Liberals and Democrats are being separated from the Good of the world. The world’s watching the Biblical portion paint itself loud and clear.

All liberals are replicating the chaff with reprobate minds. And now their hell will be living in the world of the wheat doing what’s right and there’s not a thing they can do to stop it…” 

By the way, I’ve inserted an extract from transcribed account of the outrageous media-meeting of president Zelensky with President Trump in the ‘Farago Conference’ section of this post:

Notes on the Lord’s response to attacks on His using President Trump

Personal prophetic relevance of prophetic riddles

SUCH FUN WTH THE LORD…here’s today’s most promising kick-off:

Now to continue from the previous post, which closes:

“…Watch and Pray, I say!

Do not be like the foolish virgins who missed the hour of visitation — but like the wise, trim your wicks and fill your lamps with oil (Matthew 25:1-13— for these will be known as the best and worst of times.

Ha! For many will be in shock and awe at the rise and sudden fall of many kings and rebellious Nations, which will pave the way for My Righteous Remnant of Daniels, Deborahs, Esthers and Davids — who are called and anointed to build and establish My Kingdom Government in a time of great economical and political turmoil and crisis!”

This confirms my disappointment with those who won’t seek the Lord direct and heed Him or his prophets to understand what’s happening today, as though disobeying the Lord’s command to “Occupy ’til I come!”  (Luke 19:!3 KJV)

11 And as they heard these things, he added and spake a parable, because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.

12 He said therefore, “A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.

13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, ‘Occupy till I come’.

14 But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this man to reign over us…”

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

Now a personal prophecy of 16 years ago, as in this extract from post linked below, (published 15.5.2015):

‘Six years ago (2009) Isabel Allum, the well-known teacher of prophecy, discerned it and thereby validated my decision 3 months earlier to write regularly because of an insight on the Bible (The ‘Endgame’ is Now in Play).

Forgive me for being so personal. It’s the first time of publicly sharing this, not to boast but to answer the above kind of question which readers’ may rightly entertain. In part, the prophetic insight Isabel brought us was as follows (with her emphases):

“…And I heard the Lord saying brother, you are a man of wisdom…He’s coming to release a new level of wisdom in you that far surpasses the wisdom of man and He’s going to make you a man of…

“And I heard the Lord say, an impartation like Daniel had is going to come into you and you will start understanding the ‘riddles’ of the Lord in a different way – the gift of interpretation itself as Daniel and Joseph had is going to come to you and God is going to open up your understanding to hear from heaven, not necessarily to understand the way men do but you will see; like Joseph said, interpreting dreams is God’s business not man’s business and dreams from the Lord cannot be interpreted through symbolism or analysis, only through revelation….”

“The clouds of My Justice are rolling in!” – Rachel Emerson

REMINDER (22 January 25):

Now today, as though on-cue (Q = 17th letter of alphabet) this posting pops up by Rachel: 

In prayer today I heard the Lord say—

“The clouds of My Justice are rolling in!” And He gave me scripture, (Psalm 97:2)

“Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.”

The divine justice of the Lord is sweeping across the Land. For session in now in order! The Judge will take the gavel and He will take the staff— and we will see his righteous hand come down! He has not forsaken the righteous, not one day!

“I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread.” (Psalm 37:25)

Some have been waiting years and the Lord would say this day – “Your wait is no more as the clouds of My Justice roll in, you will rise and shine again!”

“For the Lord is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for Him!” (Isaiah 30:18)

I thank God for this word and vision I saw today:

I was in a heavenly courtroom. While in this courtroom I saw lightning come from the Judge’s position as the accuser came to present the case— however, in an instant lightning came from the Judge’s stand, burning the papers of accusation and years of built-up demonic decrees and unholy archives in the room!

What the enemy has tried to hold on to the people for so long, the Lord’s gavel came down and said “Acquitted!”  For HIS Justice is prevailing this hour and divine reversals are preceding! OH, the promises of God will manifest before your very eyes!

Romans 8:33-34 – “Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. Who then is the one who condemns? No one. Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.”

Colossians 2:14-15 – Jesus cancels the written code (legal accusations) against us, triumphing over the enemy.

Psalm 109:6 – A wicked accuser stands at the right hand of the righteous, but God brings deliverance.

The Lord’s GPS: the warning, two psalms, two epistles

REMINDER: the Lord has His GPS system; that is, Global Prophecy Signaling system, and uses it for making His Invisible Jigsaw.

Today’s morning devotional from Sanctuary continues David Strutt’s wonder at how Holy Spirit led and used him in urgent ministry to a pastor sick in bed that stopped his leading a service.

He was immediately healed and they both went to church, testified to God’s power, which then broke out in the congregation – PRAISE & THANK YOU LORD!

David cites Luke 1 and 4 on the healing of Zacharias and Elizabeth as well as Peter’s feverish mother as being loving gifts from our heavenly father.

So, in reading aloud today’s ‘Moment in His Presence’ I read David’s closing prayer:

“Father, thank you for this promise. I (we) take You at Your word. We declare it is the truth. Our souls, we declare to you, we will seek the Father for the gift of the Holy Spirit’s empowering! Yes, we delight to give lovely things to our children so we believe this when You say this to us, Your children. We ask You again ‘ Would You send Your Holy Spirit  on us, and, please send Him now’. Amen.”

THE WARNING

Next, we broke bread and prepared to arise and have our quiet times, and I recalled yesterday’s warning on a clarion call for national leaders to humble themselves and then I felt led to return to reading the Book of Psalms from the start,

TWO PSALMS

Psalm 1 (NKJV) – note its dread conclusion:

The Way of the Righteous and the End of the Ungodly

‘Blessed is the man
Who walks not in the counsel of the [a]ungodly,
Nor stands in the path of sinners,
Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
But his delight is in the law of the Lord,
And in His law he [b]meditates day and night.
He shall be like a tree
Planted by the [c]rivers of water,
That brings forth its fruit in its season,
Whose leaf also shall not wither;
And whatever he does shall prosper.

The ungodly are not so,
But are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment,
Nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.

For the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
But the way of the ungodly shall perish.

My New Spirit-filled Life Study Bible notes ‘perish’ as in Judges 5:31 in Hebrew ‘abad’ means destroy be destroyed, ruined, loss, fail as in ruination of satanic figures, and is derived from ‘Abaddon’ the demonic prince in Rev 9:11. (Perhaps same as what I’d encountered as ‘devourer’, as told in Searching for Truth leads into captivity under sub-head ‘Reality Revealed’.)

And of course, Psalm 2 on The Messiah’s Triumph and Kingdom is about the Lord laughing at all the raging nations plotting in vain and His declaring a Decree about His Son and concluding as follows:

‘Now therefore, be wise, O kings;
Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear,
And rejoice with trembling.
12 [i]Kiss the Son, lest [j]He be angry,
And you perish in the way,
When His wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.’

TWO EPISTLES

It just so happened upon checking my phone soon afterwards I saw a direct message on The Fear of The Lord had been sent about the time of our devotional from one of the moderators of Prophetic Releasers for UK Revival, Paul Marriott, in which he writes (first two emphases are mine):

“Good morning Richard. Blessings to you my brother in Christ. The Lord has been impressing upon me that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the fear of man is a snare.
Then He also gave me: 2 Corinthians 5:9-11 English Standard Version Anglicised 9 So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.

The Ministry of Reconciliation 11 Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade others. But what we are is known to God, and I hope it is known also to your conscience.

I sense to pray for the fear of the Lord to come heavily upon all sides of the political spectrum. As Paul wrote too in 1 Cor 2 he vowed to know nothing except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. –

Here is that scripture in context: 1 Corinthians 2 English Standard Version Anglicised Proclaiming Christ Crucified 2 And I, when I came to you, brothers,[a] did not come proclaiming to you the testimony[b] of God with lofty speech or wisdom. **2 For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.** 3 And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, 4 and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

PS (16:10) Paul adds, “Since we spoke I have just led a Zoom and it is uncanny how up to date these scriptures seem in the light of recent divisions too:

Matthew 6:6 – New King James Version 6 … you, when you pray, go into your room, and when you have shut your door, pray to your Father who is in the secret place; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

2 Timothy 2:1-7 – NIV UK – The appeal renewed 2 You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. 2 And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others. 3 Join with me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. 4 No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. 5 Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules. 6 The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops. 7 Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this.

2 Timothy 2:14-19 – NIV UK – Dealing with false teachers 14 Keep reminding God’s people of these things. Warn them before God against quarrelling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen. 15 Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. 16 Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. 17 Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, 18 who have departed from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some. 19 Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: ‘The Lord knows those who are his,’ and, ‘Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.’

2 Timothy 2:22-26 – NIV UK – 22 Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. 23 Don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments, because you know they produce quarrels. 24 And the Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. 25 Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth, 26 and that they will come to their senses and escape from the trap of the devil, who has taken them captive to do his will.

Acts 28:27; 30-31 – NKJV – 27 For the hearts of this people have grown dull. Their ears are hard of hearing, And their eyes they have closed, Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn, So that I should heal them.” ’ 30 Then Paul dwelt two whole years in his own rented house, and received all who came to him, 31 preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things which concern the Lord Jesus Christ with all confidence, no one forbidding him.”

PPS (16:30) Paul replies: “I love how our thinking and leading dovetailed between yours, Nina’s & my own leading(s) this morning and then the fruit of my afternoon scriptures.”

Update 1: Prophets’ prior perspectives on Zelensky come to pass

REMINDER: extracts from previous post and visitors to my Facebook and Telegram. will have seen many more relevant news items on Zelensky’s ‘faux-pas’ in the White House.

Please note I find this matter distasteful, NOT through what transpired between him and America’s President and Vice-President, but in my disappointment in many Christians having allowed themselves to be fooled in accepting the false narrative of media – even deriding a man the Lord is using – for which He may hold them to account for heeding and acting upon biased agents of the ‘father of lies’.

Excerpt from Julie Green prophecy

President Zelensky of Ukraine, you are a liar and a snake. You cry for help and act like a victim when you are the one helping cause destruction in your own country. Oh yes, the world will hear and find out the truth on who you are, whose side you are on. Obama, yes, helped you and paid you for this to take place. You were well compensated with blood money to cause destruction and chaos on your own people. Your heinous crimes will be known to the world. And Zelenskyy, you are being judged by me and your end is near, and you will not survive the fall you are about to take.” https://www.jgminternational.org/…/i-am-moving-behind…

DIPLOMATIC DISPUTE: on the White House ‘conference’ I noted several observations in the previous post, of which the latter points are shown below and news upon the last soon emerged, as published therein:

  • US is trying to help but now Z throws BIG spanner into works
  • so as Z won’t agree then there’s absolutely NO WAY forward
  • so Z is either clueless on the art of negotiations,
  • or already has and is making his own very deliberate ploy!

STARMER-ZELENSKY PACT

Thank you Irene Banfield for notifying me of details of the UK Government Press Release of 16 January: UK and Ukraine Sign Landmark 100 Year Partnership. Its aim is to deepen security ties and is thus behind the NATO-European meeting they immediately convened after Washington. I note in particular this clause:

‘It also cements the UK as a preferred partner for Ukraine’s energy sector, critical minerals strategy and green steel production.’

Zelensky misled America over ending the war with Russia – as we now know he expects it to continue for years with UK government in tow!! (PS refers)

PROPHECIES PROVEN TRUE

Therefore, my doubt over the real purpose behind Zelensky’s actions being his personal ploy is now proven to be true.

He was disingenuous in discussion with President Trump and Vice-President, thereby making them out to be bad-mannered fools and receive global media opprobrium.

Now the pretentious, dishonesty in devious Zelensky’s character is exposed, then Veronika West’s and Julie Green’s prophecies are proven true!

SO the remainder of what they brought from the Lord on Ukraine, Russia, NATO must also be accurate…

Prophets’ perspectives prior to Zelensky’s faux-pas

A couple of quick screenshots from Facebook by way of updates on recent posts on Ukraine – and yet again a double-dose of my birthday number 22 crops up:

Excerpt from Julie Green prophecy
“President Zelensky of Ukraine, you are a liar and a snake. You cry for help and act like a victim when you are the one helping cause destruction in your own country. Oh yes, the world will hear and find out the truth on who you are, whose side you are on. Obama, yes, helped you and paid you for this to take place. You were well compensated with blood money to cause destruction and chaos on your own people. Your heinous crimes will be known to the world. And Zelenskyy, you are being judged by me and your end is near, and you will not survive the fall you are about to take.” https://www.jgminternational.org/…/i-am-moving-behind…
Excerpt from Julie Green prophecy
“President Zelensky is about to step down from his place of power, and not by his choice. The resistance is growing behind the scenes, and things are intensifying for your enemies because they know their days are numbered before the truth comes out and the world will really know what they are hiding and who they really are. No one will escape my judgment who is against me, saith the Lord of Hosts.”

Why this blog watches America’s presidents

In online discussion about current events and President Trump’s character, plus relaying the Lord’s Urgent Warning to the Church Against Hatred (Matt 5:22 and Trump), I was asked why I’m “so zealous” for him.

My interest has arisen from what I’ve learned during my writing ‘assignment’ – and my prophetical background gives a fuller perspective – plus a revelatory ‘authority’ of two occasions of strong Holy Spirit reaction upon my dear wife, and which gets replayed!

So, my interest in Trump is not based solely on what prophets heard from the Lord.

BACKGROUND

Mid-1980s – as recounted in Bio Info’s section ‘Grabbed By An Invisible Hand’, whilst flicking through a book I’d been given as trustee of a New Age group, a documentary on TV uncannily showed a directly relevant event of Iranian and Iraqi elite units rehearsing the storming of Jerusalem!

1989 – months after attending Billy Graham crusade I shut the door to the Gospel but that very night a Visitation from Jesus in person brought an ‘illumination of conscience’ in a near-death experience; recounted in Jesus Freed Me! I began attending Tilehurst Free Church (Baptist), Reading.

1994-5 – Seeking cleansing from that group, I received ministry and acceptance for training in healing and deliverance. Also, I was baptised in the Holy Spirit. Later, I learned about prophecy and received personal prophecies, including on writing.

2001 – During advanced ministry training (incl SRA, satanic ritual abuse) I heard about William Koenig’s news coverage of the Middle-East in World Watch Daily (accredited Christian journalist with the White House press-room).

2005 – Having had two open visions (here and here) I sought advice and attend Revd Dr Sharon Stone’s prophecy masterclass in Bath City Church and her regular meetings.

ASSIGNMENT

2008 – ‘Watching’ began seriously after opening my Bible to check Matthew 13’s parable of wheat and tares only to hear: “This is ALL about to be fulfilled” – WOWEE!!

2009 – So I email friends and follow up Obama’s Middle-East policies, as well as receive a confirmatory ‘Daniel’ prophetic word from Canada’s Isabel Allum. Writing goes public with Richard’s Watch in November 2011. (See New Here?)

2016“LORD are You starting to expose political corruption?” (ie ripening tares) I ask upon reading of investigations into Trump’s finances as the GOP presidential nominee. So, follow closely ‘RussiaGate’ hoax impeachments and ongoing ‘lawfare’ against him. That prophetical query has since proven most affirmative with over 600 updates!!

2016-25 – I note many prophets hear the Lord on America’s politics, especially a friend previously from my Reading church and of which 24 are proven accurate on Trump.

2020 – White House contact explains deep flaws in US elections makes them open to manipulation and fraud; contact with algorithm expert who has to go ‘under the radar’.

2022 – I learn of Trump’s personal ‘MAGA’ mission SINCE 2012 is to remove corruption within US politics: ie. culling Matthew 13 tares! > So, he and I are on the same page!!

2024 – Many other prophets have also been vindicated by US election results.

2020 & 2025 – Nina doesn’t follow news or prophecy, yet can get tangible ‘sizzles’ of the Holy Spirit upon seeing Donald Trump. First, when a friend sent a video clip of him and Melania on the White House balcony at Christmas 2020. Nina got head-to-toe power surges and saw a glory-light surround them.

In January 2025 upon returning home whilst I watched BBC live broadcast from the US Capitol Washington, Nina walked into the room and toward the TV precisely when Donald Trump emerged through curtains in the Rotunda to walk towards podium for his Inauguration as POTUS 47 – a mirror-action and Nina almost fell as Holy Spirit surged rapidly again through her.

NB: by way of confirmation the ‘sizzles’ return whenever Nina talks of what happened!
Note, it also brings the ‘fear’ of the Lord and ‘knowing’ that accusations of his serving evil equate to the unpardonable sin because the Lord is using him.

Moreover, as at the end of this post, whilst telling a friend of both those God-incidents he too got ‘hit’!! Thus, another divine confirmation

Hope this gives an idea of what I believe the Lord is doing in this Biblical battle of good against evil that many prophets are perceiving, and why I’m keen to inform my friends and brothers in the Lord.

VALIDATION

The screenshot below posted this morning on Facebook’s Donald Trump 4 President says it all, as well as confirming the real reason behind his success in exposing and clearing out the demonic deep-state is to fulfill Jesus’ Matthew 13 parable that started my writing on End-times > REMOVAL OF SATANIC SEED SOWN IN JESUS’ FIELD…

“The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the people of the kingdom. The weeds are the people of the evil one, 39 and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
40 As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 42 They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Whoever has ears, let them hear.”
