Christians, it’s time to PETITION FOR FREEDOM OF SPEECH

Posted on Thursday, 6 July, 2017 by Richard Barker

Further to my call three weeks ago today in Time to take a stand against the fascism of ‘Christophobia’ and Revd Gavin Ashenden’s First they came for Tim Farron – soon they’ll come for you, it’s time to protect Christian MPs’ and our rights to free speech.

Gavin exposed the inclusion of the Qur’an in the Eucharist at Glasgow Cathedral, and we are seeing Christians increasingly ridiculed and vilified in the public arena before the relentless drive of Secular and LGBTQ activism.

Therefore and for the good of the nation, the time has come to stand against activists’ schemes to suppress Christian belief across the public sphere AND in our personal lives, as is well-known and documented.

Please read Voice for Justice UK’s following email and seriously consider petitioning to ‘Protect Christian MPs Right to Free Speech. Don’t Allow Secular and LGBT Activists to Suppress Christian belief‘.:

‘Christian faith is being increasingly suppressed by the relentless drive of Secular and LGBTQ activists.

‘It is time for the intolerance, bigotry and intimidation of so-called liberals to be exposed.

‘Following delivery of our petition calling for the reinstatement of former Tory MP for the Isle of Wight Andrew Turner – forced to resign for saying he believed homosexuality was wrong and a danger to society – we are now launching a fresh campaign calling for the government to protect the right to free speech of all current and future Christian MPs.

‘Standing on Articles 9 and 10 of the Human Rights Act 1998 – respectively protecting the rights to freedom of thought, belief, and religion; and the freedom to hold and express your own opinions – we assert the right to follow and practise without impediment or restraint our Christian faith, and to express without fear of condemnation or intimidation the core beliefs on which our faith is founded and as set down in the Bible.

We call for freedom of belief and of speech for all.

‘And we call for all political parties to uphold the right of both current and future MPs to express support for traditional Christian belief, without fear of intimidation by activist groups seeking to silence dissent by unjustified accusations of bigotry and hatred.’

First they came for Tim Farron – soon they’ll come for you!

Posted on Tuesday, 27 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

Tim Farron is not just a former leader of the Liberal Party; he has become a mirror in which we see our reflection as a society. He is gagged and sacked.

Revd Gavin Ashenden, a stalwart servant of the Lord in the CoE, brings a forthright alert to ALL Christians in Britain > First they came for Tim Farron – soon they’ll come for you.

Time to take a stand against fascism of ‘Christophobia’

Posted on Thursday, 15 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

First, let’s recall a prediction that applies to everybody no matter who, because it comes from the one who is The Spirit of Prophecy (Revelation 19:10). Thus it’s true information about our personal post-mortem state of play:

“I tell you my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body and after that can do no more. Be afraid of him who, after killing the body, has power to throw you into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him…I tell you, whoever acknowledges Me before men, I will also acknowledge him before My Father in heaven and the angels of God. But who disowns Me before men will be disowned before My Father in heaven and the angels of God. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven!” (Luke 12:4-10 with Matthew 10:32-3 NIV)

Having no time for Antichrist spirit’s influence within politics I admire anyone attempting to practise and apply their faith within government. Although I don’t support his policies I’ve noticed Tim Farron’s evangelical faith wobble under frequent vicious attacks by reprobate souls within his party and the media (Stop banging on about my faith). So I have huge admiration for his decision announced last night:

“To be a political leader – especially of a progressive liberal party in 2017 – and to live as a committed Christian, to hold to the Bible’s teaching, has felt impossible for me.

“I seem to be the subject of suspicion because of what I believe and who my faith is in. In which case we are kidding ourselves if we think we yet live in a tolerant, liberal society. That’s why I’ve chosen to step down as leader of the Liberal Democrats.” (Telegraph, emphasis RB.)

Were Tim a Muslim, he’d have been safe because the nampy-pamby brigade would have been silent through fear of criminal prosecution under hate speech and ‘Islamophobia’. In my opinion, churches should start lobbying government to introduce the crime of ‘Christophobia’ – ie. all expressions of hatred against Christians and their beliefs.

But that brigade think they can get away with intimidating and persecuting anyone who believes in Jesus Christ and His true teachings. (That is, REAL Christianity, not the oxymoronic concept of thinking it’s ok to be LGBT-etc and disobey scripture and Jesus’ commands. Such confused folk think Jesus has changed His mind – like the Muslim deity abrogates its teaching – and permits disciples to follow Him, even to expect to be ‘married’ in ‘church’ – ie. an apostate one!). Poor lost souls – acknowledging Jesus Christ as Lord means doing what He says. He strongly warned them that many who call Him ‘Lord’ won’t be allowed into His Kingdom simply because they choose not to follow his instructions, as told in the previous post by my dear namesake.

Cyber-‘Archbishop Cranmer’ covers Tim’s news with a denunciation of failures to support him by fellow believers in the LibDems and by Archbishop Justin Welby’s lamenting too late – see It’s not that Christians can’t lead political parties; it’s that Evangelical Christians can’t lead the Liberal Democrats. Blogger Adrian Hilton concludes,

‘Tim Farron is indeed honourable and decent, and he has honourably and decently concluded that it is not possible to be a Christian and lead a political party in the modern era (not, as the Archbishop of Canterbury states, that “he can’t be in politics”). Yet a Christian leads the Conservatives. A Christian leads the DUP. A Christian led Ukip, and Labour, and the SDLP and the UUP. But these Christians tend to hold a view of their faith which coheres with the majority of their party: some are more secular-liberal; others more orthodox and robust. What Tim Farron has established is not that it’s impossible to be a Christian and a Liberal Democrat, but that it’s not possible to be an Evangelical Christian and lead the Liberal Democrats. It’s an important distinction which appears to have escaped the journalistic commentary on this matter.

‘But here’s a thing. If, as the Archbishop of Canterbury states, the media and politicians have questions to answer over Tim Farron’s forced resignation for daring to think and believe differently on abortion and homosexuality, do not the media and bishops have questions to answer over Philip North’s forced resignation for thinking and believing differently on the ordination of women? Does his treatment not stem from the same totalitarian intolerance of theological difference, and form part of the same drive to impose a kind of gender-sexuality moral uniformity?‘ (Emphasis mine.)

A couple of days ago Tim Stanley’s opinion piece It Has Become Politically Toxic To Be A Christian (‘premium’ content) was published in which he says,

‘I’m writing in response to anger at the DUP coming to the rescue of Theresa May. As a Catholic, I should be flattered by the liberals’ righteous fury: the Protestant DUP are the stuff of sectarian nightmares. But I notice that far more has been written about the DUP’s views on sexuality than their views on the Pope. They have failed the modern religious test, which is to say they have the cheek to still believe in God in 2017…

‘(Tim Farron) was probably inclined to ignore the question because it is, strictly speaking, irrelevant. Like the vast majority of Christians, Tim is constitutionally liberal: he doesn’t want to tell others how to live, he just wants the freedom for everyone to live in peace.

‘But that’s not good enough now. You can’t simply tolerate. You must celebrate. If you don’t, there’s no place for you in politics…

‘One might ask why the religious ethics of Belfast matter at all: social issues are a devolved question. But when the DUP marched into the limelight, liberals saw a chance to attack their biblical literalism and reaffirm that it is they – not the rednecks in the pews – who define what is and isn’t acceptable in 21st-century Britain.

I’m amazed that after the last few days the DUP are still willing to help the mainland out. They’ve been subjected to every “violent paddy” stereotype going, including from socialists who have an otherwise rosy view of the IRA…

‘The frustrating thing is that very few liberals are prepared to meet religious folk where they are. Arlene Foster, leader of the DUP, says one reason why she won’t soften her position on gay marriage is because of the “vicious” abuse she’s received for it.

‘Britain’s social divisions are thus accentuated by a refusal to acknowledge not only that people have other opinions but that they have the right to hold those opinions.’ (Emphases mine.)

FREEDOM OF SPEECH

Taking another tack: a year after the murder of Jo Cox MP and in honour of her proud independence and nonconformity in raising difficult issues for government, the senior editors of the Guardian and the Telegraph met to discuss and further the freedom of the press in investigating those who abuse their positions of power. Although of differing persuasions, both editors had no hesitation to unite in standing up for George Orwell’s insight (author of the futuristic fable of fascism, 1984):

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they don’t want to hear.”

This means freedom of speech to express one’s opinion, whether or not others may hold different, legitimate views.

REMEMBER, FREEDOM OF BELIEF, CONSCIENCE & SPEECH DOES NOT APPLY TO CHRISTIANS WHO RUN FOUL OF OFFICIALDOM, MEDIA AND LGBT BIGOTRY – for examples of many cases visit Christian Concern and The Christian Institute.

EG. Felix Ngole is a Christian student who has been removed from his university social work course after commenting on his personal Facebook page in support of biblical teaching on marriage and sexual ethics. He writes, “I was thrown off my master’s course in social work because I expressed the bible’s teaching on sexual ethics, on Facebook and was told that my beliefs made me unfit to practise as a social worker. With help from the Christian Legal Centre, I tried to get the decision reversed but Sheffield University refused. Even before I had finished my course, I was effectively ‘barred from office‘. I had to challenge this decision, because freedom is at stake. And with CLC support, we went to the High Court. I praise God that the High Court agreed that Sheffield University’s decision could be scrutinised. Felix now asks, “Will you join me in standing for free speech?”

We know from BBC Watch how the badly biased BBC always blames Israel for anything in the Middle-East (see 6-Day War). The once distinguished corporation has thus become unreliable as a source of news and many morally deficient programmes. Therefore, it’s no surprise to learn about satan’s spirit of mockery presiding there, as shown via the once respected and intelligent presenter John Hymphry’s remarks about Northern Ireland’s Democratic Unionist Party (BBC Mocks Pro-marriage Pro-life Views). Haughty smirks and laughter will vanish when finding he’s not acknowledged in heaven; not even getting a “Depart from me you who practise lawlessness”?

To return to some sanity read the CI’s overview Evangelicals Defend DUP, which briefly covers the link on the DUP at the close of this blog’s Fulfilled Prophecies #21.

In view of yesterday’s word on A Holy Shaking for London and the news of Tim Farron’s resignation perhaps it’s no coincidence that Kensington’s dreadful towering inferno was dubbed in one paper today as ‘Hell On Earth’ (as herein)!!

SO it’s well-nigh time we Christians stand up against the bigotry of our adversary’s fleshly cohorts for, as scripture foretells, they’re on the losing side! May each and every one of them be blessed with their own ‘Damascus road’ experience of meeting the living Christ.

Fulfilled Prophecy #21: Ulster and Eire

Posted on Tuesday, 13 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

A special thankyou to Bronwyn M for reminding me what Revd Dr Sharon Stone brought from the Lord 44 months ago in her Clarion Call for 2014-16 for the United Kingdom and Ireland not to miss our ‘Day of Visitation’. She said,

“I believe the Spirit of God is declaring over the UK that He has not passed us by, that we are on God’s calendar NOW”.

What she delivered on that day in early October 2013 has already proven to be accurate on Scotland’s ‘No!’ to independence and the timing “in the next two and half to three years” of England’s battles (Brexit) and eventual victory. It’s perhaps her most inspiring prophetic message and worthy of study – as is her and Chuck Pierce’s foretelling Kingdom clashes for England within/by 2016 (see Fulfilled Prophecy #8 part 3).

The prophecies bring insight and clarity to the Lord’s purposes being achieved through this month’s stunning turn of political events. That October, Sharon referred briefly to the state of play in each nation of our Union and what was necessary for each to align with God’s will. The first part of my transcript reads:

“And so I’m particularly going to target the next three and a half years for the UK…I know we have people here from other nations and we’re not preferring (the UK) but I believe that’s what’s so different about what I’m speaking at this time challenges most people that have put the entire UK into one pot and mixed all the prophetic words!

“I believe that God is not speaking to us as the United Kingdom at this time.

“I believe that God is speaking to us as Wales, as Scotland, as Ireland and as England, and the reason that He is speaking to us individually as countries at this time is because we are not on the same heavenly ‘time zone’.

“So if that’s true then we need to know where we are in the heavenly time zones of God. But at the same time we need to realise that we are there and what’s going on in each one of us is meant to complement and is meant to benefit the rest of the United Kingdom, as well as other nations.

“So the UK is not getting passed by!”

Sharon then asked delegates from those parts of the British Isles to stand up on behalf for their fellow citizens. She then prayed, blessed and spoke prophetically over each country in turn, especially for acceleration into national destinies.

IRELAND

“In speaking into Ireland it doesn’t take a genius to see that’s the western gate of revival for the UK. That means that if God is moving from the west eastwards they’re carrying something that those in England have need of. Does that make sense?”

Sharon draws attention of intercessors to her points, then reads from her notes of what she heard.: “This is what the Spirit of God, the Lord says,

“You’re the western gate of revival, so it’s crisis time for your heart. (Sharon speaks to intercessors) In the heart of the nation I am bringing a brief shock, like a defibrillator.

“In the heart of Ireland I am bringing a brief shock to reset the heart rhythm. The reason is because Ireland has always been a ‘sending’ nation (ie. of people all around the world) but they have benefited more nations than they’ve benefited themselves).

“It’s now time to revive the heart of your nation. Just as man has cut the nation in half (Eire and Ulster) I will heal the laceration portion with prayers for revival. From the west coast to the east coast on your border scar I will turn yesterday’s violence into an arm of strength. An arm of strength that will hurl My spear of revival on into the rest of the UK.” (Note emphases – mine)

And of course, all satan’s stooges are now in an utter rage about two Christian leaders (not forgetting Her Majesty) being in charge! Therefore, it behoves us to pray for our nation and leaders and to bless those who don’t yet know any better.

Bronwyn asks, “Could that ‘arm of strength’ be the DUP?” It’s probably got the credentials for being that in view of its deep involvement with and negotiations out of terrorism to bring stability and peace to Ulster. Thus, its leaders know the differences between extremism and terrorism, as outlined in Premier Christianity’s The DUP Are Not Extremists: Seven Things You Need To Know About Them (thank you Jonathan Ely, Why Leave the EU?).

General election result may be a blessing in disguise!

Posted on Monday, 12 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

Thank you once more to David Chapman for permission to publish his well-considered points. (See also readers’ comments on Brief Post-election Reflections):

SOME REASONS WHY THE ELECTION RESULT MAY BE A BLESSING IN DISGUISE.

I want to comment here, for what it is worth, that I thought Mrs May’s call for a General Election was good timing, and still do.

However, in the first few weeks I wondered why they seemed to be so ‘inactive’. The Conservatives did not wake up to their task for at least two weeks. By that time though, we were aware it was to be all about a ‘Theresa May’ Campaign and less of a Conservative Campaign. (If our enemy cannot put us down he will seek to ‘puff us up’). And Mr Corbyn was beginning his march into the hearts of many. Mistake number one.

That was clearly a big mistake by the campaign planners on her Team, and if we understand it aright, those two have now accepted responsibility and resigned. But, Mrs May herself also failed to sufficiently include her Cabinet Ministers in advising on the Campaign. We hope she has learned a key lesson from that. Mistake number two.

Also, adding in at the last minute the so called “dementia tax” was an almost disastrous decision – again apparently at an advisers behest. Mistake number three.

It can only have been the volume of prayer from the many who prayed, especially in small groups, and in their two’s and three’s across the land, who helped to secure a ‘victory of sorts’ for the present Government, and for the Brexit talks starting very soon. (Apparently the loss of only a further seven seats would have seen a change of Government).

Nevertheless, for a variety of reasons below, at this early stage of the aftermath and while the ‘dust’ still settles, it seems the final outcome may well serve the UK best.

The current Brexit Team remain in place. Despite all the other valid concerns over internal problems, settling this issue is the number one priority for the future foundation of the UK.
There is a potential 5-year term in which to settle that issue, and begin to re-build the UK’s economy, based on Free-Trade arrangements with Europe, to especially rebuild with Commonwealth countries, and also on a world-wide basis.
Northern Ireland is vital to the Westminster programme and agenda, with their likely righteous and just input, and the Government needing to heed their stance on key issues. (The timing of a breakdown in agreement for devolved Government in Northern Ireland from its Stormont base could not be more poignant, in hindsight).
Northern Ireland could well be feeling more ‘protected’ from the calls for a ‘unified Ireland’ based upon being outside the UK, as well as being now certain of retaining free movement of people within the whole of Ireland (no ‘harsh’ borders internally).
Scotland now have a ‘direct line’ to Government with its 12 Conservative MP’s, with their leader keen to see Free-Trade negotiations a success within the EU talks. This effectively rules out staying in the Single Market, as that limits the areas of Free- Trade elsewhere. (Their leader’s comments appear ‘double-sided’ on her stance, but it seems she is basically backing the Referendum decision to Leave the EU. She knows the Government want a Free-Trade agreement with EU anyway).
Scotland’s potential Independence referendum is now put on hold until at least after the Brexit deal is finalised, as support for its Independence Party (SNP) was the big ‘loser’ in Scotland from its previously exalted position.
Nett result for us all? – closer ties within the UK; inter-dependence for all in Britain, shoring up the Union!
Labour policy on Brexit is that staying in the Single Market (originally the Common Market) is not possible (John McDonnell said this on the Andrew Marr show, I seem to recall).

[So if we add together the percentage of the votes for political parties who hold that we should exit the Single Market, it is over 80% of the voters! If we are to trade freely with other countries around the world, we have to leave the SM as at present we have to abide by EU agreements with those countries they have agreements with!

The SM also effectively restricts us to trade on a Free of Taxation basis ONLY with the Member countries of the EU. The SM REQUIRES free movement of GOODS, SERVICES, PEOPLE, and CAPITAL within all Member Countries – as if we are one Nation State! – so NO control of our Borders.]

Proper plans for immigration controls can now be made for all UK borders.
The Conservatives will have to become more socially supportive. It is clear Conservatives will have to modify their Manifesto pledges of reducing financial support for the ‘grey haired brigade’, as well as needing to review benefits for the youth, such as university fees, giving more NHS support etc. and for those who genuinely financially cannot cope, combined with the principle of ‘helping people help themselves’.
As Conservatives do not want a Labour Government they are unlikely to raise a challenge to Mrs May’s leadership until well after Brexit is complete!
Majority Parliamentary Parties (Cons and DUP) are favourable towards Israel.

(Whilst clearly Israel don’t get everything ‘right’ – from our perspective, it remains true that ‘whoever blesses them, God blesses – and conversely, if we don’t. I would much rather have the blessings! so see this as a real plus. The DUP are clearly favourable to Israel and the Jews, with a strong Protestant base of MP’s in their Party).

Others will have their own interpretations, and time will prove or disprove the above, but I wanted to at least provide some areas of hope for this new Administration, and its make-up.

Paws-4-Prayer: fierce heavenly battle rages over Great Britain

Posted on Monday, 12 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

On Saturday 10th June Veronika West posted the following on Ignite Ireland Ministry Facebook page, which connects not only into my brief reflections on Northern Ireland Unionist leader’s reaction to Prime Minister May’s proposals – “The Union is our shining star!” – but also with the two UKPW items in that post:

WATCHMEN KEEP PRAYING: THERE’S A FIERCE BATTLE RAGING IN THE HEAVENLIES OVER THE KINGDOM DESTINY OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN & NORTHERN IRELAND…

This afternoon I went for a long walk along the coastline as I felt the Lord call me to completely separate myself from the busyness of the day. As I did so the Holy Spirit began to speak to me and reveal to me many things concerning Prime Minister Theresa May and the talks she is now having with the DUP here in Northern Ireland. As I talked with the Holy Spirit suddenly he reminded me of a very specific word that I received just a few days back where both the United Kingdom of Great Britain AND Northern Ireland were mentioned TOGETHER!!!. (See Below). I believe It is no coincidence that the Lord spoke so clearly and so specifically concerning both the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland just a few days before the Election, and now we see that there is a possibility of both the Conservative Government and the DUP in Northern Ireland coming TOGETHER AS ONE TO FORM A NEW GOVERNMENT IN THE NATION.

I believe this word is EXTREMELY POIGNANT IN THIS HOUR, furthermore I BELIEVE IT REVEALS THAT BOTH THE KINGDOM DESTINY OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND THAT OF NORTHERN IRELAND ARE POWERFULLY INTERLINKED WITH ONE ANOTHER.

PLEASE LET US CONTINUE TO PRAY FERVENTLY AND UNRELENTINGLY OVER the discussions that are NOW taking place between Prime Minister Theresa May and the First Minister Arlene Foster of the DUP.

I was shown that the enemy is doing everything in his power in this hour to halt and hinder any UNION from taking place between Britain and Northern Ireland. Satan knows that our Kingdom Destinies are powerfully interlinked with one another, Satan knows that MUCH will and can be accomplished and established for the Kingdom of God here in this Nation and indeed in many other Nations in the Earth if both Britain and Northern Ireland come together as one. I saw Satan working strategically behind the scenes to undermine and discredit both Prime Minister Theresa May and those in the DUP in order to overturn any possibility of a partnership forming between the Conservative Government and the DUP.

AGAIN Today as I was praying I saw a battle that is raging over the HARVEST FIELDS IN THIS NATION.

Brief post-election reflections

Posted on Saturday, 10 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

After the almost catastrophic election results a reader commented on my posting Charlie Shamp’s hearing from the Lord on Theresa May as ‘shining as a star’, as follows:

“Reading the reports just now I’ve read that Arlene Foster has today described the Union as “our shining star” – perhaps she reads this blog!”

Jonathan’s comment is valued as I only just caught that remark briefly on BBC’s evening news – and haven’t seen it in today’s paper (of course!!). The result makes it seem at best that Charlie was looking through ‘a glass darkly’, or at worst making a false prophecy – BUT the election results may make the PM deal with her shortcomings. Furthermore, in a few more weeks – June isn’t over yet! – a new government working with unionists of Ulster (staunch ‘Brexiteers’ who take a Christian stance) could be what the Lord wants and will direct?

It’s something to mull over the weekend. Meanwhile you may like to consider these items received from: (UKPW’s blogspot links appear faulty – please search for posts)

Charles Shamp #1 of 3: Urgent prophetic words on UK’s situation

Posted on Thursday, 8 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

Grateful thanks to the unknown creator of this splendid illustration

NOTE – This is the opening part of a longer post published on 6th June by UK Prophetic Words and which may be read in its entirety at Urgent Word about England, Terrorism, Brexit, Theresa May, The Lion of Judah is Calling You To ROAR. (The 3 parts appear here in reverse chronological order, separated to enable sequential listing in the Prophecy Library, but can be read straight through as published in that link).

Suzanne Payne writes.:

This is a long but very significant, urgent and important prophetic word relating to the current situation in England with terrorism, Brexit and Theresa May. This is from a video Charlie Shamp posted on his Facebook page today; do listen if you can; I’ve transcribed most of it:

CHARLIE SHAMP – 4th June 2017

Charlie speaks about the Word he gave for England in Dec 2016 (see below at #3), about how it was a season of contention in the realm of the spirit (for the heart and soul of the nation). Before any of the attacks happened, the Lord showed Charlie on 11 Dec 2016 that there was going to be a season of contention in the realm of the Spirit, but that after the BREXIT was over with, after England comes out of the EU, there is going to be a cutting of those ties, and the Lord showed him there’s going to be a beast that was going to try to come out of Brussels, and this beast is going to be cut off: the spirit of terrorism, and He said that the spirit of terrorism, connected with Islam, is also connected in with the EU.

And as England and the UK breaks from the EU, there’s going to be a SEVERING of all ties with that and God is going to HEAL THE LAND.

And the Lord gave him a word concerning Theresa May (see below at #2) on May 10th that Theresa May is going to bloom in May, and that in June she’s going to shine like a star.

Charlie shares that he has a real heart for the UK, he has travelled across the UK and his heart is breaking but he realises what is coming. He wants to tell the UK to stay strong right now; the Lord has already revealed what the cause of this is. The cause of the terrorist attacks is because of the BREXIT. The enemy does not want the people of England, the people of the UK to come out of the EU. But the Lord told them in December when he released the Word, that there would be contention in the realm of the Spirit, and that it was all based upon the BREXIT, but when the UK comes out of the EU and there’s a breaking, that season of contention is going to be over. Charlie said in December 2016 that the enemy was going to come for the gates and he was going to come for the heart of England. But the lion is going to roar.

This is a season that the UK is in contention but June is going to be a time of Theresa May shining. This Word about her May is very important because God has positioned her, and the enemy is not going to be able to move here out of her place; the Lord has set her there and she’s a watchman over the nation. And the Lord is going to use her. The Bible says a three-cord strand is not easily broken and the Lord told Charlie that He is going to link Theresa May, the Queen and the UK together, and He’s going to break and sever the tide of terrorism. Charlie then reads this Word…continue reading at #2.

Charles Shamp #2 of 3: Theresa May will shine like a star

Posted on Thursday, 8 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

NOTE – This is the second part of a longer post published on 6th June by UK Prophetic Words and which may be read in its entirety at Urgent Word about England, Terrorism, Brexit, Theresa May, The Lion of Judah is Calling You To ROAR. (The 3 parts appear here in reverse chronological order, separated to enable sequential listing in the Prophecy Library, but can be read straight through as published in that link).

Continuing from #1, Charlie expands upon the serious spiritual contention and warfare over the Lord’s will for Britain, expanding upon Theresa May’s role therein (see also post-election comment below and subsequent posts):

A Prophetic Word for the UK: MAY WILL SHINE LIKE A STAR – 10th May 2017

“May will bloom in the month of May. I have given her grace to run her race. She is a diamond in the royal crown. She has been sent and set in her place by me to help the Queen and the United Kingdom. Her legacy has been set in stone, she will not be moved or removed. In June she will shine bright for the world to see!”

The Lord gave me a verse out of Isaiah for Theresa May, the Queen, and the United Kingdom:

“Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God. Thou shalt no more be termed forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah: for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee.”

Charlie then says I want you to get this because I feel it so strong in my spirit. God is doing something and he’s going to sever the tide, this root of religion that is of Islam that is coming out of the UK right now. And God is going to marry you again. AS the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, so shall God rejoice over thee.

I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, which shall never hold their peace day nor night: ye that make mention of the LORD, keep not silence, And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth. Isaiah 62:3-7

Charlie continues: The Lord told me that Theresa May has been sent and set by the Lord as a watcher over the crown and the United Kingdom for the Queen. She will not fail, but will be faithful and finish the course. She is a diamond and a bright star that will shine for the world to see. The United Kingdom has been sealed for the BREXIT, it will come to pass.

I don’t care what the enemy tries to do, even over the next several weeks. There is a turning of the tide, there is a blessing that’s coming, and when the enemy comes in like a flood, God is going to raise up a standard. And I want to tell all my friends, those that I love in England, that God has sealed the UK for the BREXIT, and the enemy is trying to put fear on the people, in order to try to draw them back in, to that beast, that beast out of Brussels. But the Lord says you have to cut and sever the root of religion.

And I’m telling you right now, I’m praying for you England, I’m staying in constant communication with some of those I’m close with over there, but this is a time that the UK is going to shine. This is a time that Theresa May is going to shine in June, and it’s going to be overwhelming after this election, and there’s going to be a wave of favour that’s going to come.

The BREXIT is going to happen, the enemy cannot stop it, England/the UK is coming out of the EU, God has already said it, the scroll has already been released … I said it in 2015 in England when I was ministering in Norwich … I saw in the spirit that God was going to link the US and the UK together, and that as the Lion roars the Eagle was going to fly. We said that as the lion roars in freedom in the UK and there’s a changing of the government, there’s a shifting of the freedom of the lion roaring, that at the same time there was going to be something that was going to happen in America where the Eagle was going to come back and it was going to begin to soar and fly and we said that in 2015.

… And then in December we released the Word (see #3). I’m telling you what’s happening right now in England is the root of religion, of Islam is being pulled out of the country, and BREXIT is happening, and the enemy is trying to fight right now, with his last breath. And we saw this in December … while I was staying on the Island of Mull, I had a night vision, the day before the US election, I had an encounter where I saw a man walking through the land, and I said Lord who is that man? and He said that’s My church in England, that’s My people in England, that’s My church in the UK; those are My people. And suddenly there was a root, a root of religion, a root that came out of the ground, and it wrapped around the man, and it was like a snake, it came and wrapped around the body of the man, and I said Lord what is that? He said that’s the root of religion, He said it’s two fold, a two fold religious root. And this root had tentacles on it. I said Lord what is this two fold root of religion and tradition? He said it’s the root of religion and tradition that makes My people be quiet and silent when the enemy is destroying them. And He said it’s a root of religion that is trying to suffocate them.

And as I saw this, the root went and wrapped around the mouth of the man, and began to suffocate Him. And I said Lord, how can we stop this? And the Lord said to me, He said that it’s Matthew chapter 3 … And I’m telling you England it is not a time to be silent, it is a time to STAND UP and ROAR. The people of England, the people of the UK, it’s time to STAND UP and begin to DECREE and DECLARE, and begin to ROAR. The Lion of the Tribe of Judah is calling you to ROAR right now.

The enemy is trying to come in and to take the heart of the country, and unless you ROAR, unless you ROAR, that enemy’s trying to come and he’s going to take your heart. And I’m telling you the Lord wants to release the Lion Heart of God, the Lion Heart of the Lord. And the Lord told me that it was Matthew chapter 3, and He said it’s verse 10 and 11: And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the tree therefore every tree therefore that beareth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you in the Holy Ghost and in fire.

And the Lord spoke to me and said that the people of England are going to be baptized in the fire of the Holy Spirit; there’s a fresh baptism for the church in the UK OF THE FIRE OF God, that as they GO and PRAY, and they begin to decree and declare the Word of the Lord, that the AXE is going to be LAID at the ROOT of the tree of RELIGION and TRADITION, it’s going to be laid at the ROOT of ISLAMIC TERRORISM, and that root is going to be PULLED OUT of the country.

And the Lord said to me to pray for you tonight, all my friends in the UK …the SPIRIT of FEAR is trying to come in to PULL you BACK from the BREXIT. And the tentacles, and that beast that’s in BRUSSELS is trying to PULL you back in, to NOT BREAK AWAY. But I want to release strength, I want to release courage, and I want to release this fresh baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire to you tonight, and as you go to pray, that boldness like a LION is going to come upon you, and you’re going to begin to prophesy, you’re going to begin to decree and declare the Word of the Lord, and God is going to cause the UK to to shine like a bright star… God is going to cause England to be broken away from the root of religion. As the church rises up and begins to roar, the Lion of God is going to come out of your mouth, and its going to destroy this root of religion, and this root of Islamic terrorism that’s trying to come into the country, and the Lord’s speaking to you even right now as you’re watching, that the fire and the power of God is going to come out of you. And the Lord told me, He said to me, ‘Son, it has to be a people that are from the land that are going to begin to speak to the root of religion’ …

Charlie then shares about having had his DNA tested and being 67% from England the Lord told him that’s why he as so much passion for England, and that he needs to stand up and mobilise the people and tell them that that this is a season to not be silent, that it was already foretold that this was a time of contention in the realm of the spirit but the Lord says this too shall pass, and that as we link together in the spirit of unity, God is going to command the blessing upon the UK, He’s commanded a blessing upon the BREXIT, He’s commanded a blessing upon the people of God, and this is going to be a time of rejoicing, a time of the presence of God, it’s going to be a time, where the enemy has come in like a flood, God is going to raise up the standard in the Body of Christ, He’s going to raise up the standard in the UK, and we’re charging forward. I’m telling you, the Lion of the tribe of Judah is going to roar. And the Lion is roaring, and we’re not backing down, we’re not stepping back. We’re not going to faint or run in fear. No we’re going to stand up and decree and declare the Word of the Lord, and the root of religion is going to be severed by the axe of God…And the signs and the wonders are going to begin to be manifested in the nation.

Charlie then goes on to speak more (around 23 minutes) about what we’re going to see in this move of God in the UK. But it all starts with this Matthew chapter 3, verse 10 and 11, that there is a baptism of the Holy Spirit and fire … I’m telling you there is a shifting that’s happening right now, and we’re not drawing back into fear. We’re moving forward in faith and victory and power, and the enemy has no place, he can’t stop what’s coming, there’s a revival, there’s a move of God, there’s an outpouring, there’s the glory that’s coming on the UK, the presence of God is going to move like we’ve never seen before across those Islands, the fire is going to burn, God is going to change the government, God is moving back into the country, the Lord has even saved the Queen, and put the Queen in a place where she is not going to leave this earth until the fullness of this BREXIT thing happens. I’m telling you right now, God has set and sealed her as well. She’s a praying one, she loves Jesus, she loves the Lord, and she’s praying for the country. And we’re standing in unity, and the power of the Holy Spirit is going to cause us to break away from this BEAST that’s out of Brussels, and we’re going to march forward into the things of God, and that root of religion that I saw on the man is going to be broken and severed, and we’re going to run into the freedom and we’re going to run across the land with the fire of God, so Father in the Name of Jesus I pray for my friends in the UK, across England right now, and the enemy is trying to bring discouragement, trying to break their faith and break their persistence and break their prophetic edge. Charlie then comes against that in prayer and releases the fire of the Holy Ghost upon everyone watching the broadcast, and in England for intercession, for the prophetic courts of God, for moving into the council rooms of God and decreeing and declaring the Word of the Lord over the nation …

Veronika West: a ‘now’ word on the significance of Theresa May’s election

Posted on Thursday, 8 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

Readers will be aware of the many contributions that UK Prophetic Words is bringing the body of Christ in our current situation, one of which is this from Veronika West posted on her Facebook yesterday:

AN URGENT NOW WORD FOR THE UNITED KINGDOM;

“THE ELECTION OF THERESA MAY WILL MARK THE BEGINNING OF A MIGHTY MANIFESTATION OF A GREAT HARVEST IN THIS NATION, FOR THE WINDS OF RESTORATION, REVIVAL AND REFORMATION ARE NOW BLOWING ACROSS THE LAND”!

Like many of you I have been praying and interceding over the Nation and over the affairs in our Government but today for the first time in a few weeks I saw and felt a TANGIBLE SPIRITUAL SHIFT TAKING PLACE OVER THE NATION. I saw in the Spirit realm the prayers of the Saints being set before the King like incense, I saw many hands lifted high toward heaven, then I heard these words,

BEGIN TO DECREE; “A HARVEST SHIFT IS NOW TAKING PLACE OVER THIS GREAT NATION…!

As I remained in prayer the Holy Spirit quickened to me a Word I posted last year around this same time. Please see and read the submission below. I believe this word is now beginning to come to pass in our Nation.

Note; I found it poignant that the breakthrough in prayer came today being 7 June 2017, as we know the number (7) represents, Completion, Perfection, Prosperity, Rest, Taking Procession of, Gods Will made manifest, Walls of Jericho came down and Entering into Gods Heavenly Atmosphere.

Furthermore, today it is exactly ’10 months and 25 Days’ ago since Theresa May was Officially Elected as British Prime Minister, (Joshua 10:25 says, “FEAR NOT, nor be dismayed, be STRONG and of good COURAGE..!)

Word; From 2016..! Continue reading →

Critical, historic election day – prophetical perspectives & declarations; and Big Ben

Posted on Thursday, 8 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

Houses of Parliament: courtesy FreeDigitalPhotos.net

Awake in the early hours a number of notions popped into mind, maybe as pieces of the Lord’s invisible jigsaw?? ‘Twas time to pray along the lines of Romans 16 to ‘crush satan’ again and I recalled what two sisters in the Lord had told me at Acorn and now realise the scriptural aspect of one is to be announced herein as a Habakkuk declaration:

“Look at the nations and watch – and be utterly amazed for I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe even if you were told (1:5 NIV)…

“Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay. (Hab 2:2-3)

The first (‘V#1’) reacted to Nina’s vision of heaven’s response to Romans 16 prayer by saying the triple lights spoke to her of one of the three lots of stakes in each of the four nations of Britain that had been seen by a visiting intercessor. Named ‘Confession & Repentance’ ‘Vision & Promises of Commitment’ and ‘Faithfulness & Covenant Unity’ they had chains connecting and supporting them so the nations wouldn’t be torn apart as our lands rocked and groaned for a while.

A couple of months ago the other (‘V#2’) had shared a vision she’d just had of tanks appearing from the south east of England. In response to the recent alert for the south coast, she writes, “…they increased in number according to the shape of the land…It was to do with the tank tracks, the things that dig into the ground so that they can manouevre over any terrain without too much difficulty. It started with something being sharpened on a moving lathe belt which after a while the lathe belt turned into the moving tank track which then multiplied into many tanks. It was the parts that made up the track that were being sharpened so that no obstacle would hinder it’s progress.”

I recalled it well for I was reminded of scripture’s awesome holy threshing-sledge in Isaiah 41, where the Lord comforts His servant Israel – so declare its meaning for today:

“ALL who rage against you will surely be ashamed and disgraced; those who oppose you will be as nothing and perish. Though you search for your enemies you will not find them. Those who war against you will be as nothing at all. For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear…for I Myself will help you…

“See, I will make you into a threshing-sledge, new and sharp, with many new teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them and reduce the hills to chaff. You will winnow them, the wind will pick them up and a gale will blow them away. But you will rejoice in the LORD and glory in the Holy One of Israel.” (vv 11-16 NIV).

Wind and a gale! Didn’t they cause nationwide chaos only a few days ago?

Now in conversation with ‘V#2’, she recalls the tanks started moving off from Dover over discoloured land. However, wherever their tracks went the land became green and fresh again!! (This reminded me what happened in the picture I had whilst praying at Winchester just before the EU-Referendum vote.)

MOREOVER – DOVER was covered in our Keep Praying & Bless routine at 8am, viz:

Decree: I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA; “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is, and who was, and who is to come, the almighty.”(Revelation 1:8)

‘We decree that Jesus is the Almighty, the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end.

‘We bless the people of the British Isles with knowing the security that God truly is the beginning and the end, and that He holds everything together because Jesus is the same, yesterday, today and forever.’

Also, it’s intriguing that both ladies’ names begin with a ‘V’ – for victory! (In fact, there’s 3 v’s in them.)

SO, let’s be full of expectation for the Lord’s indicating something’s about to happen.

GENESIS 12 BLESSING FOR BRITAIN

It is to be especially noted that Theresa May has written to the Jewish community in the UK promising to be “You community’s champion!” (as here). If she is elected as Prime Minister Great Britain may, therefore, expect to receive the Lord’s blessing promised in Genesis 12:3; “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse”.

Election of the Labour party leader Corbyn would be a catastrophe for Britain because not only does he countenance anti-Semitism within the party but also as a life-long supporter of terrorist groups, he represents a clear and present danger to our national security. To those young idealists, like I was before having my eyes opened to the deep misery of 5 Labour PMs in 50 years, I would urge you to be well aware of that history as you vote. (See former head of MI6 Richard Dearlove’s page 1 Telegraph article ‘Jeremy Corbyn is a danger to this nation and exclusive report on 20-year Special Branch monitoring in view of fear he’s ‘undermining democracy’ – premium content). For lots more see Jonathan Ely’s splendid coverage of news at Why Leave The EU?

VISION OF BIG BEN FROM TUCSON, ARIZONA

My cyber-friend Tony Puccio noted on 11 March in his blog My Dreams and Visions on Big Ben: Another Dream:

In August of 2016 I had the following vision – of Big Ben being struck at its base by what looked to be a missile. Then I saw it fall just like the twin towers did in the 9-11 attack where the towers, instead of falling over, crumbled to the ground. Big Ben’s clock face was now on the ground but was undamaged

‘The morning of 03/11/2017 I had another dream about Big Ben only this time I saw it arise from the clock face on the ground to its original height, perhaps even taller. I remember hearing it bonging, however, it did not cease as one would have expected when it had chimed the hour of the day but was a continual bonging. Then I saw people in beds asleep and I perceived that the bonging was to awaken from slumber those who were sleeping.

‘It’s my personal belief that England is going to play a significant role in the coming awakening hence the dreams about Big Ben.’

It just so happens that at about 6am. I heard a massive, quick ‘boom’ in my head and wondered if it could be a symbolic starting pistol to the election. A few hours later at the polling station I learned that was the time they arrived to set up for opening at 7am!

Tony’s dream of a missile attack last year was fulfilled metaphorically by the manner in which citizens were massacred on Westminster Bridge later in March. His second dream may speak of the nation waking up at long last to the treachery buried within the muslim community and our arising to new heights of our re-found national identity?

(You may like to read also: Dreams & Visions of Big Ben at Prophetical Midnight Hour.)

So tomorrow morning will start an exceptionally interesting period in British history. Bring it on Lord!

Vision of heavenly activity and prayer directive re. UK election

Posted on Tuesday, 6 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

The synchronous timing of two visions received yesterday is highly encouraging. The first comes by courtesy of UK Prophetic Words:

URGENT Prayer Directive about the UK ELECTION

When I was driving home from work today my heart was heavy with the coming election. I was asking God what we needed to do to see victory as I sensed there is an intense battle still to be fully won.

I saw a TUG OF WAR going on in the heavenly realms. The kingdom of darkness was trying to overthrow the kingdom of God.

I felt God show me a picture of the watchmen in the Body of Christ marching on the spot with their swords in the air, all of the swords pointing together in one piercing central point.

The marching seemed to be sending ripples of BREAKTHROUGH out across the land

The swords all had on them “Decree a thing and it shall be established”.

I saw the Body of Christ all MARCHING in UNITY DECREEING the VICTORY in the ELECTION in the NAME OF JESUS.

The decreeing was causing a HOLE to be PIERCED in the second heaven.

I then saw BATTALIONS of ANGELS being released through the second heaven where the hole had been pierced and they WON the BATTLE in the heavenly realms which then caused the tide to turn and the battle to be won here on earth.

I felt God say that it was only in DECREEING the VICTORY that the battle would be won for the election.

BE SURE TO READ THE EXCITING 2nd VISION >> next post

On the prime political purposes of this historically decisive time – 1

Posted on Friday, 2 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

ONLY TWO MATTERS should be of prime importance in every British citizen’s mind when voting in next week’s general election, viz:

the best means of accomplishing the public’s majority decision to leave the EU
the recognition of religious dogma behind, and the eradication of, terrorism in UK.

I do not think it’s a matter of voting as one would normally do, eg. according to party, but for what is best for Britain. Being far more interested in things of the Kingdom I’ve no political axe to grind but need to state the obvious:

If Mrs May fails to win this election decisively and clueless clowns devoid of a plan for achieving Brexit succeed her, Britain would become the laughing-stock of the world.

Also, anyone who fails to recognise the murders of innocent citizens, especially children, as terrorism – and throughout their career has feted terrorists and attended their gatherings and memorials – and countenances anti-Semitism in his followers – is worthy of the utmost contempt and should be treated as not only a political pariah but also an appeaser of evil. Blaming British and Western nations’ “foreign policy” as the cause of those atrocities is more than reprehensible – it is outright treason!

In his op-ed last Saturday, Charles Moore adroitly analyses why “Jeremy Corbyn has a better understanding than Theresa May of what Islamist terrorism is. This is because he shares a key aspect of its world view”.:

‘Throughout his long career as a Member of Parliament, he has been absolutely consistent. What links his support for Sinn Fein/IRA, the liberation struggle in East Timor and his declarations that Hamas and Hizbollah are his “friends” and the death of Osama bin Laden was a “tragedy”? One thing: in all of those causes, the West – especially Britain and the United States – was the enemy…’ (A summary of his dubious associations with Islamic terrorists follows)

Consider Charles’ parting shots (emphases mine):

‘Mrs Thatcher was first called the Iron Lady because she exposed the Soviet threat. Mrs May could win equivalent respect by an equivalent exposure of extremism.

‘After all, this is a moment of change. On Sunday in Saudi Arabia, Donald Trump made a speech. It was little reported here, because our media are interested in him only when he gets into trouble (which is often), but it marked a decisive break.

‘Throughout his presidency, Barack Obama could not bring himself to utter the words “Islamic terrorism”. His entire discourse therefore took place in a self-created vacuum. President Trump, however, talked to his Arab audience about “honestly confronting the crisis of Islamic extremism and the Islamists and Islamic terror of all kinds”. In a Muslim world scared by the power of Iran and of Isil, and victim (which we tend to forget) of 95 per cent of all Islamist terror attacks, there is a growing coalition for confronting the threat rather than, as in the past, exporting it.

‘The violence from which we are suffering is the extension of a story of victimhood which people like Jeremy Corbyn assiduously foster. The doctrines of non-violent extremists create the space for the Islamist violence itself. “Strong and stable leadership” should be able to win by explaining this.’

This post-atrocities article is well-balanced with Charles’ opening remarks on A Thinking Person’s Guide to Islam by Prince Ghazi, a Muslim theologian, cousin and advisor to the king of Jordan, and whom he quotes:

‘Showing systematically how the extremists diverge from all the traditional schools of Muslim thought and distort the scriptures, Prince Ghazi estimates that roughly 15 million of the world’s 1.5 billion Sunni Muslims support radical Salafists. Of these, 150,000 have taken up arms. Traditional Muslims are many, the extremists are 1 per cent of 1 per cent.

‘He puts three questions “for every Muslim” which are “the litmus test for your understanding of your religion and your heart”. The one most relevant to us is directed at Muslims who live in free, non-Muslim countries. “Is it impossible to live and let live with non-Muslims in peace, friendship and mutual respect as long as some Muslims in the world have a conflict with them or a grievance against their foreign policy?” If you think it is, he says, you are not a true Muslim.’

Next, we’ll consider how to deal with what makes a political religion a world-wide menace.

Battle for Election, Brexit and Revival in UK

Posted on Thursday, 1 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

Thank you to Suzanne Payne for another received this morning and just posted on UK Prophetic Words:

URGENT VISION CONCERNING THE ELECTION BATTLE, BREXIT AND REVIVAL IN THE UK

I see a baby in the birth canal being born. I see an umbilical cord around the baby’s neck. Where are the midwives caring for the safety of what I am bringing forth in this season? One more contraction and the baby will come. It is imminent. The enemy seeks to choke this baby. Distraction of the intercessors is the enemy’s ploy to abort My purposes in this season. This is your opportunity to seek Me face to face and flow in My purposes. Be intentional! (2 Cor 6:2) (Ps 27:8)

Summon the troops to gather, even in twos threes and fours to stand in the gap between the porch and the altar.

Seek My strategy, it will work even now if you seek strategy from the King. Release the sound to muster, pray and seek My face. Decree that I will thwart the plans of the wicked (Job 5:12-17). Call forth revival. Call forth restoration of those things that have been lost and are not! I am the God of the impossible (Matt.19:26). Call forth what you don’t yet see as if it is and it will surely come to pass (Romans 4:17).

Visualise what victory looks like and speak it into being.

Therefore, come into alignment with My Will and purposes. Fast and pray for the warriors themselves to arise and position themselves for the battle. Pray for one another. Victory is on the horizon if you purpose to get involved as My storm troops. Storm the Heavenly realms with your worship, decrees and sounds of victory! (Eph 3:10-11) Call forth the victory! Sound the battle cry!

Prophetic intercession for next week’s general election

Posted on Thursday, 1 June, 2017 by Richard Barker

Thank you to UK Prophetic Words for this posted today for weighing and praying:

PROPHETIC PRAYER DIRECTION FOR UK ELECTION

I believe this Word that came last year is very relevant to this upcoming election:

Word to an intercessor friend as we sought the Lord after Andrea Leadsom stepped aside for Theresa May last July:

Oh My beloved, take heart, for I am right in the heart of this situation, that I have allowed, that I have developed says the Lord. For I am overall, I am in control; I plan that the destiny of this nation will be fulfilled says the Lord.

So take heart, do not be dismayed. But pray like you’ve never prayed before. And seek Me, and keep praying, and praying in tongues my beloved, because the situation is complex. Praying in tongues, praying in tongues My beloved for I am at work.

And just pray: that all those people I am raising up, all those people that I am shifting, all those people that I am realigning to My will and purpose, will come into their positions.

Oh My beloved, take heart, do not be troubled. As you keep praying, you will get the breakthrough, it will come in a different way to what you expected says the Lord, but nevertheless you will have breakthrough.

Take heart for I see My intercessors, I see My faithful ones. I see that the hopes of many have been dashed but My beloved take heart for all is well. Just keep praying, keep praying, keep interceding, day and night says the Lord and you will see that My plan will unfold and I will shape what I am doing.

I am moving people like you move pieces on a chessboard. I am re-positioning people says the Lord so that those that I have chosen to be in positions of authority at this time will be positioned.

But I’m also preparing the way for the next government says the Lord. I am preparing that ahead of time says the Lord so once I have done what I have decreed I will do, what I have planned I will do, My government will rise up: those that I’ve chosen, that will accelerate this nation forwards in this time of jubilee, beyond the time of jubilee, and as I bring this nation back into revival says the Lord.

This month’s critical convergence of historical cycles

Posted on Wednesday, 19 April, 2017 by Richard Barker

AN EXTRA-SPECIAL THANKYOU TO EVERYONE WHO SIGNED UP IN EARLY 2012!

A month after launching this blog in late November 2011, I introduced my first readers to accredited Christian journalist and ‘Watcher in The White House’, William Koenig in Points to Ponder: 2011-2012 and Biblical Historical/ Financial Cycles. This referred to his four-year investigation of the work and predictions of the financial markets technical analyst Eric Hadik. (Read About William Koenig and Who is Eric Hadik?)

Erik Hadik built his renowned expertise upon W.D. Gann’s work on market cycle theories based upon his discoveries of mathematical-geometrical principles in the Bible! Erik’s material is published at Inside Track Trading. (My very brief introduction to cycles may be read in the blog’s God-incidences hub.)

After closely following Hadik’s application of those theories to natural and social events, Bill published his findings simultaneously with the launch of Jonathan Cahn’s bestseller The Harbinger and attested to having “found (Hadik’s) calculations extremely accurate”. So, it certainly seems the Lord wants His people to learn about these matters.

Before proceeding and if having time and inclination, you may want to get ‘up to speed’ by scanning through my brief blogs on Cycles & The Bible and The Natural Year. I’d like to draw your attention to Erik’s evidence for his thesis on Historic Aprils For USA & Israel. This has led him to dub today, April 19th and the days thereabouts, as being a “Date of Infamy for America”!

Digging into those links will give good grounding for Bill’s comprehensive compilation from four of his 2016-17 reports in.:

The Converging of Major Historical Patterns in 2017-18 and Jewish New Year 5777

(Read document by clicking/tapping title.) This paper focuses upon the significance of 2017/5777 as regards the land of Israel, biblically and geographically. In conjunction with data from Erik Hadik, Bill covers these excitingly informative topics in detail:

Donald Trump born exactly 700 days before Isarel became a nation
On first day in office POTUS Trump was 70 years, 7 months, 7 days old
America’s 45th President, Isaiah 45 and 44:28; Tim La Haye study notes
Jubilee Year and liberation of Jerusalem 1917 & 1967 (50 years) in depth
Five potential major developments in US-Israel relations in 2017
Orthodox Jews believe Messiah’s appearance possible in 2017
Biblical origins of 70-nation anti-Israel Paris conference
Several scheduled astronomical events are Biblically relevant
Convergence of 25, 40, 50, 60, 70 and 100 year cycles re Jerusalem
Culmination of four major 70-year cycles from 1948 to 2018
7-year cycle from the beginning of the ‘Arab Spring’
Computers and technology 70-year cycle.

Last weekend’s Koenig’s Eye View from the White House provides a detailed list of critical events in April 2016, plus timeline of them within this current April – of which we’re all too well aware!

Bill asks, “Were the last two weeks of April 2016 the most prophetically significant period in history?”

Typically, he provides a detailed analysis of their events and regards this present time as being, “Another prophetically pivotal month: many major headlines and news of final-day nations that will play out in the rest of April” (ie. 2017).

So in this light, it’s very poignant that yesterday Prime Minister Theresa May announced her decision to hold a snap general election on 8th June, thereby thwarting ‘Remoaners’ plans and thus strongly forging ahead with Brexit!

And today she got the backing of MPs by an overwhelming 522 to 13 votes – April 19th, an exceptionally historic day for the UK!

MOST EXCELLENT!!

Intercessor’s vision of Heaven’s Council Meeting on UK

Posted on Wednesday, 5 April, 2017 by Richard Barker

Thank you to UK Prophetic Words for this recorded on Sunday 2nd April by Ruth Grigg:

VISION OF A HEAVENLY COUNCIL MEETING ABOUT THE UNITED KINGDOM

I had been praying for the UK and the government etc. and I asked the Lord to give me strategies in how to pray more effectively for the nation.

In a vision, I started to see myself walking down a pathway. I was dressed in a white robe with jewels embroidered onto the robe, gold around the edges and carried a gold staff. I walked up to a mansion-type building and knocked on the door to a Council. Angels opened the doors and I walked up to another door and knocked. The door opened. I was shown to a seat near the front to observe the proceedings. I was told not so speak unless asked to, only to observe – I also scribed. [RB note: at Saturday’s mentoring day Dr Stone included this function in several operational modes of the prophetic gifting.]

I was in a court-room chamber, where the Council met (refc1). They were holding a meeting concerning the UK.

During the proceedings, Satan stood up and said he had plans for the UK, that he had rights and access because we had opened the doors for him.

Satan said he had plans to bring deeper darkness to this nation, so deep that we cannot get out or return to where we have previously been (2). He has plans to hem in the UK, surround us and pressurize us so that our nations conforms to others around us and looses our own identity. He said he has plans to remove Child Benefit and other benefits from families – to bring families into further poverty (3).

He also said:

He has plans to make housing and house-buying more difficult, almost impossible – causing more homelessness and stress on families.

He has plans to ruin and bring down the Health Service so it is more chaos and disorder.

He has to bring further and deeper divide within the churches over issues of sexuality and morality.

He has plans to allow and encourage all religions and cults to operate more openly and freely with endorsements from the government – all except Christ followers (4)

He has plans to confuse and nullify the morals and ethics of the youth and children in our nation.

He has plans to bring higher levels of stress and strife, by raising up ‘education’ and ‘business success’ on the alter of life – making them into gods – bringing with it heavy loses on health, and family life.

Then the Council Leader (God) stood up and asked the church – “What answer does The Church give?”

The Church stood up (seemingly weak and silent) and said, “We will pray.”

The Council Leader (God) asked the Lord what answer he gives?

Then the Lord stood up in the Council and said:

I will stir up my people to pray and intercede, fast and repent. I will call them out from hiding and cause their light to shine.

I will put my compassion and strength in their hearts so they will rise up and heal those who are broken and hurt and they will be lights on a hill (5).

I will raise up intercessors to stand on the wall and in the gaps to guard the nation (6), to close and open doors, to bind up and loose (7), to call for angelic help and to call for the army of God to rise up; and when they call on me, I will hear them and heal their land and their people (8). I will put my word in their mouth and they will speak out in truth and wisdom, faith, power and love, then they will decree the things I have spoken.

I will strengthen their armour and their sword (9); in the heat of the battle, they will not be burned; in the heat of the battle my angels will fight for and with them.

They will rise up and address their nation and when they call on me I will provide for their needs; they will see my grace and glory. Nothing shall defeat them because I am fighting for them (10).

Then I was asked to stand up and speak:

Ruth, what is your response?

My response was: I will do what the Holy Spirit leads me to do. I will pray and intercede. I will speak forth in truth and I will teach the nations.

This is where the vision ended.

A historic day, not only for Britain but also globally re. Genesis 12 & Psalm 2

Posted on Wednesday, 29 March, 2017 by Richard Barker

Now the Lord had said to Abram, “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing.

“I will bless those who bless you and curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Genesis 12:1-3, NKJV)

As I write, Donald Tusk, President of the European Council, has received PM Theresa May’s letter of ‘Declaration of Independence’ giving notice of Britain’s decision to leave the European Union. She announced to the House of Commons that the Article 50 letter has been delivered. Hooray!

Britain’s ambassador to the EU Tim Barrow delivers formal notice of the UK’s intention to leave the bloc to European Council president Donald Tusk in Brussels CREDIT: AF

A year ago none would have expected such a severe shaking in government and change in leadership in the United Kingdom (as well as in the United States of America) – as said before, obviously the Hand of God must have been in this (eg here). AND, in accordance with what He revealed to one who listened to Him, He told his prophets in advance!

‘Surely the Lord GOD does nothing unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.

‘A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken! Who can but prophesy?’ (Amos 3:7-8 NKJV)

You may be interested to read Archbishop Cranmer’s ‘take’ on this and note reference by ‘TropicalAnglican’ in the ensuring thread to a ‘brexit’ vision on New Year’s Eve 2015.

Let us never, ever forget the essential prime point – whatever anyone may say – in leaving the EU is to remove ourselves from its inequitable system of judiciary injustice. That fact was well emphasised by David Chapman in The EU’s Background and An Alternative. Also, it’s featured strongly in Edmund Phillimore’s conclusions drawn a week before the June referendum, which closes by reminding readers:

‘Brexit will not restore us to godly government, for many of our politicians are secular humanists. But it will be a step in the right direction, taking us out of a system of government that does not acknowledge God and his sovereignty over his creation. It will restore us to the principles of our ancient constitution and democratic monarchy that honours God in the Coronation oath which still stands. We should trust God , and remember that he can restore life to dry and scattered bones.’ (Our Christian Heritage in Church and State – new addition to blog.)

In my humble opinion, leaving the EU will enable Britain to move back into its God-given destiny and, as Mrs May has a far better appreciation of the purpose and role of Israel in the world than anti-Semitic EU, we can expect the Lord to follow-up His promise to bless us – AND as arranged during PM Netanyahu’s visit to London last month, a British-Israeli task force is proceeding to prepare for new trade deals now Article 50 has been triggered. (After USA, the UK is Israel’s second largest trading partner.)

The USA should also be the recipient of scripture’s promised blessings too now there’s no longer any light showing between their alliance with Israel and their individual geopolitical interests.

TOWARDS A NEW ARAB SPRING

As in Prophetic Scripture Update #3, today’s meeting of Sunni Arab heads of states in Jordan may result in their acceptance of the Jewish state of Israel as a partner in working towards an acceptable solution to the Israel-Palestine issue. They may want to wave a ‘hammer’ at ‘mule-headed’ Mahmoud Abbas – and better still, clout him with one!

So, according to Genesis 12 all those Sunni nations will be blessed in dealing properly with Israel – and all parties thus move toward recognising Messiah Jesus. For decades the scenario given in Psalm 2 has applied in that intractable Middle-Eastern enmity, as well as all reprobate nations:

‘Why do the Gentiles throng tumultuously and the people plot a worthless thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against His anointed, saying “Let us break Their bonds in pieces and cast away Their cords from us”.

‘He who sits in the heavens shall laugh; the Lord shall hold them in derision. Then He shall speak to them in His wrath and distress them with His deep displeasure… (NKJV)

The psalm continues to describe events, especially the declaration of Jesus as Mashiach or Messiah to the Jewish elders (Matt 26:63-66) and commissioning his disciples unto the nations. Its conclusion may be read as a promise to those who come to respect His people and their Anointed One:

‘Now, therefore, be wise O kings; be instructed, you judges of the earth. Serve the LORD with (reverential) fear and rejoice with trembling. Kiss the Son (embrace discipline, receive instruction), lest the LORD 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.’

That scripture may prophesy blessing upon that meeting and its outcome, all of which may fit in with an open vision I had when visiting Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship for the first time in 2003.

Being unfamiliar with the speakers I’d heard a little about them from Nina and knew so little about Heidi Baker of Iris Ministries (Iris Global). However, as she started addressing the conference I suddenly had an open vision as though I was in orbit over central Africa and saw tall flames leaping high into the atmosphere over the whole Mozambique area to the right. I then saw them sweeping up the eastern side of Africa and into Sudan and Egypt. Its Mediterranean coast sat on the curvature of the globe and I saw this holy fire go along it and across the Sinai peninsular into the Arabian peninsula! .

[Upon speaking to Rolland Baker about this, he replied it’s similar to what their director Supresa Sithole had seen for the ministry, which has brought whole Muslim provinces to Jesus.]

Therefore, we trust and pray the Lord is doing many new things globally today…

Kenneth Hagin: a prophetic vision for the USA

Posted on Monday, 27 March, 2017 by Richard Barker

Thank you Charisma News for publishing this article by Bert Farias (on 26 August 2016), the sharing of which would appear to be of the Lord’s timing, as in the previous post:

KENNETH HAGIN’S NEVER-BEFORE-PUBLISHED 1963 VISION

This vision was given to the late Kenneth E. Hagin in 1963. It was shared with me by a friend with inside connections to old archives of teachings and prophecies never before published or made public. I believe it is now the time to share such prophecies for the hour of the manifestation of these things is upon us.

For there came a dark hand up out of the ocean from the east, even from the Atlantic Ocean (Neville Nel/Flickr/Creative Commons)

Yea, the hand of the Lord was upon me … the Spirit of God moved upon me … the voice of God spoke unto me and said, “Come up, come up hither son of man.”

I went, as it were, up into the air and stood with Him, the Head of the church, even the Lord Jesus Christ…in the air. And as I looked down upon the ground I could see as a map laid out before me the entire nation—all the states of the continental United States. And as I looked He said, “Behold son, and I shall show you that which shall come to pass, and that which the eyes of many shall see. And they shall remember that their ears heard that it shall come to pass.”

For there came a dark hand up out of the ocean from the east, even from the Atlantic Ocean. It came up out of the sea as a hand and as it rose up into the air it became a dark cloud and it filled the whole atmosphere. Yea, and it swept in like a storm at sea. And I said, “Oh Lord! Oh Lord! Oh Lord! What’s the meaning of this?” And He spake unto me and said, “Son, that is the darkness of atheistic communism that is sweeping across the nation—even in the minds of men in high places and politicians with great power. And this nation shall not grow more strong and you shall not have more liberty than you have now, but liberties that you’ve known and you’ve seen shall be seized and taken from you.”

And I looked again, and I could see upon the mountain a blotch, as though a bottle of ink had been spilled and spread out over several states in the south and east. And then I looked and I could see spots splotched all over the map and I said, “Lord, what meaneth this?” And He said, “Communistic-inspired hatred among races shall cause greater turmoil than your nation has seen heretofore. Yea, it is not the will of God but men’s hearts are perverse and they walk without the love of God and seek to have their own way. And so it shall be worse than you have seen.”

And I said, “Oh Lord! Oh Lord! Is there a remedy? Is there a remedy? What shall the answer be?”

And He said, “Evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceived and being deceived.”

And then I said, “Oh, Lord! Do we have nothing to look forward to in the future except the darkness, the blackness, war, destruction and evil?”

And He said, “Son of man, forget not your text for you look at the things not seen (the title of his message was, ‘Looking At Things Unseen’).” And so then I looked into the spirit realm and I saw falling upon that mountain a ball of fire from heaven. The closer to the Earth, the bigger it got, and then when it came to the Earth it divided into small balls or sparks of fire, and it fell upon men. And I saw an army of men rise up, and it seemed as though their hands were fire. And there sat upon their heads a tongue of fire. (When I first saw it, it seemed like their whole heads were on fire but it was tongues of fire leaping.) And I said, “What meaneth this?”

And He said, “Before the worst shall come and the day of darkness encompasses there will be those who shall go and who shall carry the fullness of My truth and the fire, not only to the states of this nation but to many other places. For there is a work that must be done, first spiritually, before the Lord shall come.

“Now prepare ye your hearts, for the time is at hand and the beginning is now; and ye shall see and ye shall know for the hand of the Lord is upon you and many of you shall be used in these last days and the work shall progress.”

Hallelujah to Jesus! Hallelujah to Jesus!

And I said to Him, “Oh Lord! May I have a small place to work?” And He said, “I shall cause thy tent to be enlarged. Yea, thou shalt have an enlarged ministry and thou shalt minister to many where you ministered to a few. Therefore, go ye back to the Earth and be thou faithful and give forth that which I tell you to give for you have been reluctant in days gone by to tell it. Now tell it boldly and speak it true for now is the day that it shall be so.”

Oh hallelujah! Oh hallelujah! Praise God! Praise God! Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!

For the word of the Lord came unto me saying, “The prophetic vision shall be restored unto the church, for even in the days of old under the old covenant the prophet would see by vision and prophesy, and so the prophetic vision shall be restored unto the church. And this is the time, and this is the hour, and this is the place.”

Praise God! Hallelujah! Thank you Jesus! Praise God, praise God!

When I spoke up I saw this very night. I saw the vision. I was lifted up to that place. Oh men and women, thank God for His goodness to man.

RB’s Footnote:

Having been received at the height of the Cold War we could presume, as its recipient may well have done, that references to “communists” means the historical political parties east of the Berlin Wall. However, it’s a fact that marxists, left-wing fellow travellers and anti-Semites are now allied with Islamists against the West and its Christian principles.

Hence the dominant colour of black rather than red in the vision is indicative of political allegiance for we know of the ex-POTUS’ marxist-cum-muslim leanings and that he is officially ‘waging war’ against his democratically elected successor. As a ‘starter’, see the briefing The Official War Against Trump, appended to Our Finest Hour – Warning to the USA plus my notes thereto and links to Daniel Greenfield’s articles in the previous post.

PS. also, William Koenig cites Garth Kant’s 64 Ways Obama is Sabotaging Trump.

President Donald Trump and the “42” (part 2)

Posted on Monday, 20 March, 2017 by Richard Barker

This valuable insight offered by Mark Davidson is highly significant in my humble opinion – and could support not only the idea of Britain and America as the prophesied ‘Tarshish’ (and he reinforces my remarks on Obama in another recent post), but also my blogging on the revival of our spiritual and political/commercial bond (here and here).

THE FOUR SIGNPOSTS

So Barack Obama, supposedly the forty-second person to be constitutionally elected president of the United States, is now a former president. He has been replaced by the next person to be president, Donald Trump.

In this earlier post I suggested a theory I heard years ago about the Bible’s use of the number forty-two and its seeming application to the leadership of the United Kingdom and the United States. Ancient Israel and Judah had a total of forty-two kings before changing form and losing their independence.

In the case of the United Kingdom, William the Conqueror was the first monarch of Britain in its current form and the current reigning monarch, Queen Elizabeth II, is the forty-second monarch.

And in the case of the United States, President Obama was supposedly the forty-second constitutionally elected person and that was going to be it for the United States in its current form…
