Bible’s Author opens it to answer my ‘newbie’ questions

(5 of 7) Awesome as my ‘rescue’ was, the dream-vision recounted in part 4 didn’t make me want to rush off to church. That visitation’s effect and the ramifications upon my way of life needed careful consideration. For example, I needed to check out New Age claims of the Bible having been compiled and modified by Church councils in the 4th Century after Christ, as well as learn about its history from authoritative sources. [Prof F.F. Bruce’s The Books and The Parchments (1991) was very helpful, especially about the late 2nd Century ‘Muratorian Fragment’ drawn up in the church at Rome. It lists practically all the canonical New Testament literature.]

So not only did I need to assess those implications, but also as possibly a new believer in Jesus Christ I wanted to find well-informed believers who took Him seriously. I soon did so but needed to put their claims of hearing direct from God to the test. After all, they believe we have a relationship with Him and so we have but to ask…

CULTURE SHOCK

A few months before the dream-visitation, I’d learned some members of the church that had invited me to hear Billy Graham met in the school next door to my house! Later, I heard they’d given young Peter prayer-backing for his discussions with me (as in part 3). That is, they’d targeted me!  And God answered their prayers by giving me that ‘dream’.

The first service I attended there in that familiar, small school hall was a culture shock!

Standing before a young man devoid of dog-collar but wearing an acoustic guitar led the meeting in song and spoke without any script or ritual whatsoever – even engaging the congregation in discussion!  Some attendees testified to angelic protection in their lives: I’d thought this subject was lost to churchgoers. Starting the ‘sermon’, he said he’s going to look at the shortest gospel, that of Mark, and would continue in the next weeks. In saying, “It’s action packed and full of urgency” he intrigued me, and this fitted in with my intention of checking out the Bible.

Therefore, I thought it might prove useful to come again. At the next session one thing he taught stuck in my mind: “In Mark, who was the first to recognise who Jesus really is?”  Answer: an unclean spirit (see Mark 1:24). I was thus reminded of that dream’s events – and of the exceptionally unsettling, very vivid one years earlier of a devouring monster of darkness (as in ‘Reality Revealed’ in part 2).

[I was reminded of that scripture at a school of healing in 2017, when the teacher asked why would Jesus silence a demonic testimony of His identity? The answer: coming from an unclean tainted source, even truth itself gets contaminated!  Also, I know that’s been satan’s modus operandi since the Garden of Eden – the father of lies and half-truths. Moreover, this fact points out that being’s pretext for rebellion, and raises questions about the religiously sanctioned practice of ‘taqiya’, as in Islam.]

MOVING TOWARDS FREEDOM

During 1990, therefore, I came into a good place to build upon that dream encounter by learning about the Bible and, more importantly, by listening to God through His written word and to come into a close relationship with Him. As stated above, it was opportunity to test claims about discussing the Bible’s content with its Author without any priest as ‘intermediary’.

The first of many times this happened brought incredibly clear – and shocking! – proof that God really does speak from the Bible, as claimed by many believers in Jesus.

My 1st Question of God

It was important to review my uncharitable views about the clergy. You may understand  how difficult it was for me to contemplate attending church, let alone with regularity – not to mention being under the oversight of clergy.  I wrongly suspected they couldn’t comprehend the dark situation I’d come from.

And so I put preachers’ claims about the Word of God to the test and asked if God could  show me from His book His opinion of clergy and about my attending this church…

My Bible fell open at Hebrews 13:17, giving this most apposite answer and instruction:

Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you. (Emphases mine.)

That well and truly put me in my place and enabled me to make my mind up. Thank you Lord for answering and correcting me!

My 2nd Question of God

Later that year I reviewed the occult teaching about Jesus in that brotherhood’s books on His ‘mystical life’ and ‘secret doctrines’. They’d attracted me at 20 years of age, and there were various claims in a massive mound of monographs, as well as teachings of its sister brotherhood based on the dogmatic Kabbalah (Jewish esoteric belief system based upon Creation;  eg. the ‘Sepher Yetzirah’).

Initiates of one of that Gnostic initiatory group’s highest degrees were styled as ‘veiled prophets’ on the spurious grounds of using 2 Peter 1:19.  Yet the Bible was very rarely discussed throughout my membership. Moreover, not only did this sole reference not quote the subsequent qualifying verse 20 (about the origin of all prophecy being in God’s Holy Spirit) but their practicum also failed to enable such initiates to prophesy! Hardly surprising…YET…

I asked God for His guidance through scripture on my membership and opened my new, pocket-sized Bible.  I’ve never been able to repeat what happened next – it immediately fell open at the very same second chapter of Apostle Peter’s second letter.  Its first ten verses stood out with startling clarity (the rest were hazily out-of-focus) – they warn about false teachers who:

‘…secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying our sovereign Lord who bought them – bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their shameful way and bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with the stories they have made up. Their condemnation has been long hanging over them and their destruction has not been sleeping. For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but sent them to hell…to be held for judgement…then the Lord knows how to…hold the unrighteous for the day of judgement, while continuing their punishment. ‘ (2 Peter 2:1-9 NIV)

The emphases hit ‘bull’s eye’, and the subsequent verses explain that assessment and what happens to such teachers as ‘springs without water and mists driven by storm’. This answer to my question was startlingly exact!  It  was jaw-dropping and eye-popping, as well as being a chilling condemnation of the teachers I’d known – absolutely awesome!

The Holy Author of the Bible had used it to answer my own personal question (Paul’s letter may be read in full here).

Specifically, that occultic group claimed its information had come from the Essenes and early Christians. Members of that Qumran community by the Dead Sea and across Judea were supposed to have assisted at Jesus’ birth and crucifixion, and as a Roman warrant had supposedly been issued to release Jesus before death, those supporters and ‘secret disciples’ helped to resuscitate Jesus.  Also, as God’s Holy Spirit had come upon Jesus during the baptism in the river Jordan and left during the crucifixion this supposedly indicated Jesus was human only, not one with Almighty God.

Furthermore, this group taught the necessity of acquiring initiatory knowledge to enable attainment of illumination and perfection of ourselves through reincarnation, and thus be one of the ‘ascended masters’ or world teachers, as claimed of Jesus the Christ.  That is, it had descended from the Gnostics and continued their doctrines, together with many others within the Western esoteric tradition.

The Gnostics and other heretical false doctrines about Jesus had vied for dominance over the early Church, and later greatly influenced the founder of Islam. This is why Apostle John’s first letter speaks so adamantly under direct inspiration of the ‘Author of the Bible’ about the spirit of anti-Christ and its slithering into churches to contend against the One who’d destroyed satan’s authority over humanity:

Beloved, do not put faith in every spirit, but prove (test) the spirits to discover whether they proceed from God; for many false prophets have gone into the world. By this you may know (perceive and recognise) the Spirit of God; every spirit which acknowledges and confesses [the fact] that Jesus Christ the Messiah) [actually] has become man and has come in the flesh is of God [has God as its source];

And every spirit which does not acknowledge and confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh [but would annul, destroy, severe, disunite Him] is not of God [does not proceed from Him]. This [non-confession] is the spirit of the antichrist, (of) which you heard that it was coming, and now it is already in the world.’ (1 John 4:1-3 Amp Bible)

Therefore, that brotherhood denied the divinity of Jesus Christ and the centrality of His sacrificial death and resurrection – from actual death – for the salvation of human souls, and thereby reconciling us with God and enabling our right of entry – in this life and the next – into His throne-room by the Blood of the Lamb.

Moreover, the Author of the Bible had pointed me to His truth about that group’s motives and its leaders’ dreadful destiny.

Conclusion

Consequently, I wanted to know lots more from the Living Lord God and His Son Jesus Christ.  It was a great blessing, therefore, that He soon directed to testimonials like mine (next).

Only upon revisiting this testimony many years later did I realise those passages in Peter’s letter and that to the ‘Hebrews’ starkly contrast both forms of leadership under which I’d served. The first was highly ungodly, and the latter is blessed by Father’s supreme protective cover for all His children.

The night Jesus broke through the window!

(4 of 7) The second visitor over the night of 13-14th September 1989 was far more challenging than that evening’s first one, when I’d shut the door on hearing about Jesus – this time it is life or death!  Mine!!

THE HEAVENLY VISITOR

In a most unusual dream that night I go back in time. A dream so lucid that even thirty years later, it remains vividly etched within me. Therefore, it must be exceptionally significant. Continue reading

The day I shut the door on Jesus!

(3rd of 7) NOTE: This two-part testimony was posted as one of my first blogs. Originally written over 25 years ago as ‘More Than A Dream’, it’s expanded to elaborate upon my changed life as a committed Christian in my journey into freedom.

THROUGH THE DEVIL’S DOOR!

A very brief recap:

Since my teens I’d wholeheartedly embraced esoteric spiritual doctrines and practices such as the Eastern and Theosophical belief of reincarnation and ascended masters, as well as those of Western occultism plus concepts generally known as deism.

I thought that as all religions are equal there are many paths to a supreme being –but which is not the same as the anthropomorphic deity of the Abrahamic religions. That is, it’s different to and far superior to human beings – a ‘cosmic mind’ with which we can be attuned and attain ‘cosmic consciousness’, as experienced by many and practised in the associations of which I was an active member.

I appreciated the linkage with mystical Islam of Sufism as well as having read its Book. It was only after becoming a born-again Christian that I studied its early history and came to understand its fundamental, doctrinal differences with Judaism and Christianity.

Thus, two decades of an occultic practicum made me disdainful of churches, clergy and laity. They were all so very behind the times – even archaic!  Intellectual and spiritual pride made me think their preaching could never compare with the profound philosophy found within ‘New Age’ movements. Such arrogance, of which I’m ashamed!

A DIFFERENT DOOR OPENS!

Sometime in July/August 1989, a young man named Peter knocked at the front door with an invitation to hear the world-renowned evangelist Billy Graham at Earls Court in London. We could be taken in a coach trip from outside our house west of Reading. How much? Nada, entirely free!

Naturally, I rejected the offer outright but my almost-teenage son piped up he’d like to go because a classmate had told him about it. So I said I’d take him.

As can be gathered from my journey into spiritual captivity, personal experiences had made me extremely wary of churchgoers. Never did I suspect my own well-being hung in the balance at that moment after the knock on the door!.

Can you imagine my bewilderment, therefore, upon sitting ‘up in the gods’ at Earls Court and finding myself agreeing with what Billy Graham said as he spoke from the rostrum? 

I was flummoxed! Utterly bewildered! Who’s thinking that? Can that be me? Never!… Really?

Afterwards, as a follow-up, those who’d been on the trip were invited to an informal meeting at a local ‘free’ church. The leader explained that similar chats could be held   at our own homes, if we so wished. I agreed to be on-hand for my son but I was NOT personally interested. A youth worker, Peter, was assigned to help him but, in practice, he ended up discussing the material with me.

The evening of Wednesday 13th September 1989, is Peter’s third visit to our house to discuss Billy Graham’s follow-up material entitled Life. I have not yet divulged my firmly held – even entrenched – opinions, but this time he goes too far!

WHAT WENT WRONG?

This session is entitled, ‘Yoga, Eastern Religions and The Occult’ – all of which I’d been involved in since before Peter had been born!

Peter shows a diagram of two cliffs facing one another. One represents heaven and the other earth, with a large deep gap separating them. Over this Peter places a large plus sign over the gap. The ends of the horizontal arms touch each object, thereby bridging heaven and earth. He explains the cross of Christ is the bridge between both realms.

He then says the only way to God is through Jesus Christ. This statement implies my own ideas are wrong!  Without giving the game away I gently question him on this. But he insists not many paths lead to the same, supreme God – there’s only one way to one almighty God and it’s through his Son Jesus Christ.

What’s to be done with a young man half my age who unwittingly points out the error of my ways?

I’m thinking, “He doesn’t know what he’s talking about. How can he, who’s not done any of the things I know far more about…just how can he tell me it’s wrong?  He’s wasting my time!”

Peter’s ideas are not only mistaken but also intolerant. Before the end of the evening I’ve had enough!

I SHUT THAT NEW DOOR

So I bring our discussion to an early end, show him to the door and, excusing myself from future meetings, bid him farewell. Peter is most gracious – he smiles politely and goes his way

But little did I know I may not make it through that night! My life was at risk!

GPS #32: words and visions on the significance of Notre Dame’s conflagration – and Jerusalem’s!!

A personal thank you to Angus MacKillop for alerting readers of Ignite Ireland Ministries to Newsweek’s report that whilst flames were engulfing Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris, there was also a fire in Jerusalem’s Al-Aqsa Mosque – it cannot be mere coincidence or a ‘God-incidence’, as we’ll learn from the prophetic word of yesterday shown below.

Tom O’Conner writes in yesterday afternoon’s Newsweek, ‘Fire broke out at the revered Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem just as flames ravaged the Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.

‘Footage showing smoke and fire emerging from the roof of a structure known as the Marwani Prayer Room, or Solomon’s Stables, could be seen on social media. The Palestine News Agency, the official outlet of the Palestinian National Authority, cited a guard as saying Monday that “the fire broke out in the guard’s room outside the roof of the Marwani Prayer Room, and the fire brigade of the Islamic Waqf handled the matter successfully…Sheikh Azzam al-Khatib, director general of the Jerusalem Waqf and Al-Aqsa Mosque Affairs Department, told Jordan’s Al-Mamlaka TV that the fire broke out in the courtyard and preliminary information suggested that it may have been caused by children tampering in the area.’

Let’s not forget that intriguing ‘coincidence’ of an unusual lightning strike in Mecca on the 14th anniversary of the attack upon New York’s Twin Towers (see Paws-4-Thought: Kingdom-related Events Since Lightning Strike on Mecca’s Grand Mosque).

THREE PROPHETIC WORDS ON NOTRE DAME FIRE

That the above buried news of the Al-Aqsa compound fire is not only synchronous but also is part of what God is doing worldwide, will become clear upon reading the first of two words received in this morning’s email, namely:

1. FIRE IN PARIS PROPHECY 

The Lord would say, “The fire of the Paris Cathedral is a signpost of My Spirit and is the beginning of the tearing down of the high places of religion across the nations of the Earth. For surely I am doing a new thing in the midst of you and My Spirit shall burn down the old entrapments and raise up the new places that I have decreed.”  For the Lord says, as is written in Jeremiah 23:29 ‘Is not My Word like fire and like a hammer that breaks a rock into pieces?’

“Watch and Listen for I am causing both heavenly and earthly signs to identify the changes I am making to re-frame the earth so that My righteousness and glory are at the forefront,” says the Lord of Hosts. “Be vigilant Watchman and make My Signs known to My People,”says the Lord.

2. “NOTRE DAME IS ON FIRE…! PRAYING FOR PARIS FRANCE…!!

While watching the FLAMES RISE OVER NOTRE DAME the Holy Spirit quickened to me this powerful word I gave for France last year…!

A WORD FOR THE NATION OF FRANCE; “WATCH! FOR THE FIERY PHOENIX IS RISING, RISING, RISING FROM THE ASHES TO NEW LIFE AND NEW BEGINNINGS”

This afternoon while sitting talking with the Lord in my garden suddenly I saw the Nation of France and as I looked at the Nation I saw a FIERY PHOENIX RISING UP FROM THE ASHES, as I looked again at the Nation the Word of the Lord was quickened to me saying, “Then I thought, ‘I shall die in my nest, and I shall multiply my days like the phoenix’. On hearing these words I immediately inquired of the Holy Spirit and I heard Him say,

“DAUGHTER, I HAVE HEARD THE CRIES OF MY PEOPLE AS THEY HAVE WEPT FOR MERCY, MERCY, MERCY OVER THIS NATION, FOR SURELY IT HAS LOOKED LIKE THEY WOULD DIE IN THEIR NEST, BUT WATCH! FOR A MIGHTY WHIRLWIND OF MY SPIRIT NOW BRINGS FORTH RESURRECTION POWER TO THAT WHICH LIES BENEATH THE ASH HEAP, WATCH! FOR THE NATION OF FRANCE SHALL BE LIKE THE FIERY PHOENIX RISING, RISING, RISING FROM THE ASHES OF DESTRUCTION AND DEATH TO THE BEAUTY OF NEW LIFE AND NEW BEGINNINGS. WATCH! AS MY SPIRIT NOW MOVES ACROSS THIS LAND TO RESURRECT AND RESTORE, TO REFORM AND REVIVE, WATCH! AS MY GOVERNING HAND MOVES MIGHTILY IN THE DAYS AHEAD TO MULTIPLY HER DAYS LIKE THAT OF MY SERVANT JOB,” says the Spirit of God.

I DECLARE AND DECREE; THAT THE NATION OF FRANCE SHALL RISE, RISE, RISE LIKE A FIERY PHOENIX FROM THE ASH HEAP OF DESTRUCTION AND DEATH TO THE BEAUTY OF NEW LIFE AND NEW BEGINNINGS.

Note; PLEASE CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR THE NATION OF FRANCE IN THIS HOUR. (click to read vision to Pray for France Arising dated 3rd May 2017)

SEE A SECOND WORD GOD GAVE ME JUST A FEW DAYS LATER; (Click to read France! France! France! Pray for France! dated 7th May 2017)

Note; Job, notwithstanding his present despair of it, was favoured and satisfied with, (Psalms 91:16 ) ( Job 42:16 Job 42:17 Job 29:18) . Some versions render it, “as the phoenix”, a bird of that name, spoken of by many writers as a very long lived one; some say it lived five hundred years, others five hundred forty, others six hundred sixty…!

3. BRITISH ISLES/UK and EUROPE: IT’S TIME TO REAP WHAT YOU’VE SOWN

Roger Jervois in South Africa kindly forwarded copy of yesterday’s conversation he had with a sister in UK who moves in the prophetic. They note a specific reference to ‘Fire of God’ in an American’s prophetic word, the title of which I’d noticed a few days ago but for different reasons.

It is published in Elijah List as British Isles/UK and Europe: It’s Time to Reap What You Have Sown, the pertinent part of which reads (emphasis mine)

‘We make room for the Holy Spirit in our local church gatherings. It’s impossible to see culture shift without a local church that maintains an open atmosphere to the supernatural movement of the Spirit. I prophesy, Europe and UK – may the fire of God burn strong in your churches! I even see some of the ancient landmarks of faith, the cathedrals and beautiful sanctuaries of old, coming alive again with the fire of God.’

Revisiting the vision of ripping the rotten fabric of our society

Last Monday’s two blogs on GPS #31 began by saying that overnight and throughout Monday I’d been contemplating the relevance of the open vision I had of the British Isles back in 2004 to our nations’ current chaotic situation, and began to blog about it. However, upon seeing what Veronika West and then, Yvonne Coombs, had just posted and that both relate to that vision but take it up another level, I realised their material should take precedence. So I republished those prophecies.

In August 2011, about the time I was being ‘nudged’ to start blogging, I emailed friends in connection with current news headlines: ‘World In Crisis: Markets Dive, Mobs burn London’; `Rule of the mob – Markets dive as panic spreads’ with links to renowned Bible teacher Lance Lambert’s prophecies of 2010 (far more serious phase of judgement commences, and follow-ups herehere and here on events), as well as an encouraging insight through Revd Dr Sharon Stone on reports of ‘the imminent collapse of society’!

I asked my recipients to consider those events’ relevance to the vision I had seven years earlier, which I recounted as follows:

‘Personally, I’m encouraged that this word (through Revd Dr Stone) confirms the gist of an open vision coming right at the start of the first worship session at a conference in St Albans, Hertfordshire, in October 2004.

‘About eight feet right in front of me I ‘saw’ a large map of Britain surrounded by the sea, as though painted on rotten sacking – like disposed, old coal sacks I`d see in my childhood. I had the strong impression of the Lord saying Britain is just like them; moreover that the fabric of our society is so rotten it could so easily tear apart. 

‘This ‘map’ then began to rip apart in the middle downward, from about the line of Hadrian’s Wall down the Pennine chain into the Midlands, and I sensed the Lord say, “I’m going to put the backbone back in Britain”. (I recalled the Pennines are known as the Spine of England.)

‘Then out of the tear emerged a very long rock, which I understood as meaning the Lord would restore our strong, spiritual backbone when we stand upon Him, The Rock.’

[Much later I noted, ‘Could the Lord be allowing increased persecutions here for the purpose of putting the spine back into Christians and making us stand up strongly?’… And Parliament has since been, and continues to be, thoroughly shaken and ripped open – do it to the media and elsewhere, Lord…Did you know that mounted, body-armoured police in Manchester interrogated a street preacher just because he was inviting people to an Easter service? Next, a hate-crimes unit visited him at home!!!]

‘It wasn’t so much the unexpected and unbidden nature of the event that startled me. It was because I thought I heard the Lord say that He would rip the nation apart as easily as an old sack because it’s rotten!! That troubled me greatly for I considered such to be contrary to His loving nature. 

‘But NT scriptures do speak of judgement and He gives many repeated warnings of such impending action (eg. as given this month through Lance Lambert). Yet, we must plead His remembrance of mercy and of Jesus’ sacrifice, through which comes the fullness of true blessing. All rather a profound mystery. Also, let’s not forget that the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD (Isaiah 11.2) were aspects of the Holy Spirit prophesied for the descendant of King David’s father Jesse: Jesus Christ.’

For the purposes of accountability and weighing I submitted the vision to the presiding pastor and his guest speaker, and later to our own church leader, but they blanked out!  Yet upon attending a prophecy school the next year at Bath where one of the courses was led by Dr Sharon Stone, I submitted it to her. Immediately, she agreed its validity and got her ‘masterclass’ interceding upon it!

When, in the mid-1990s, I first heard church leaders referring to prophecies it was said they’re to be held in a ‘pending tray’ because many years pass before they usually, if at all, come to fulfillment. With the ‘acceleration’ over the past decade, however, they have begun to manifest a lot more rapidly.

To summarise briefly, the state of our nation hasn’t improved but drastically deteriorated; that is, the fabric of our society has become increasingly rotten and too many politicians led the way in opening wide the doors for demonic infiltration, control and destruction by their willful rebellion against the Living Lord God and His Holy Word.

Since that vision we’ve witnessed the rapid erosion of Biblical standards of personal and public probity; mental, behavioural and spiritual perversion of right and wrong; the disintegration of freedom to believe, think, speak and act in a civilised manner and with every courtesy due our fellows, even in what were once the acme of all advanced societies – the universities.

For example, I knew a newly graduated historian whose mind is tightly shut against empirical evidence offered by older, more knowledgeable people on Brexit. He allowed one gentle rebuke on his blog, but not my brief corrections even though he subscribed here. (As I won’t tolerate bigotry I removed him.)

Just this week, my friend and ‘mature student’ Michael tells me his “being sandwiched between two major universities and attending a church full of university students has opened my eyes to quite how vicious anti-Christian prejudice has become both in university and in the media!”

And there’s the utterly reprehensible MP who’s completely lost his marbles by denouncing leading Brexiteers as ‘neo-Nazis’!  An appalling aberration, which shows how the spiritually oppressed lack intellectual acuity and credibility.

Yet far worse are those whom Jesus said it would be better for them to lose their lives than allow them to endanger and harm little children. I refer to officials who insist parents have no right to exclude their children from school classes on transsexuality.

Nevertheless, my open vision promises that, although society will severely split apart, the Rock of our Salvation will reappear during that self-destructive period.

What’s more, according to these extracts from last week’s prophetic visions the next phase will be that of our nation becoming a ‘gold signet ring’ on the Hand of God – as here:

(GPS #31.1 Veronika West) ‘I had a powerful dream 3 nights ago where I saw the the Nation of Great Britain and Northern Ireland being drawn up by the hand of God and as He took hold of the Nation it became as a GOLD RING, as I looked at the GOLD RING suddenly I saw the finger of God come forth from the heavens and the Gold Ring which was the Nation was put on His finger and I heard these words,

WATCH! FOR I SHALL TAKE YOU, THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND, AND I SHALL MAKE YOU LIKE A SIGNET RING UPON MY FINGER, FOR YOU SHALL BECOME A SIGN AND A WONDER AMONG THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH”…!

(GPS #31.2 Yvonne Coombs) ‘I ask the Lord how it will look if we are in unity of movement and I see a giant gold ring hovering over the Houses of Parliament. I see a blow-torch melting the gold from the ring as it drips over the building.

“IF YOU CALL TO ME, I SHALL SURELY ANSWER YOU, IF YOU GO TO YOUR KNEES IN PRAYER AND CRY OUT TO ME, I SHALL SEAL YOUR UNITED KINGDOM IN GOLD! I SHALL SET MY STANDARD OVER YOU AND I SHALL GIVE OVER THE GOLD OF THE EGYPTIANS TO YOU AND I SHALL CALL YOU MY FAIR LAND, MY OASIS AND MY ACHIEVEMENT OVER YOU SHALL BE SEEN FROM THE NORTH, TO THE SOUTH, TO THE EAST AND TO THE WEST.”

I felt to paint this image and I saw a sword thrusting into the river Thames.
We have THE SWORD TO DECLARE AND PRAY. IT SHALL BEGIN A REVIVAL OF FIRE LIKE NO OTHER KNOWN BEFORE BUT, EVERY CHILD OF FAITH NEEDS TO USE WHAT WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN.

I believe the gold ring is a wedding band, a covenant promise, so let us say “I DO!”
(Psalm 63)

GPS #31.2 – confirmation of the gold signet ring for UK

Now here’s an awesome ‘God-incidence’ of God’s GPS (Global Prophecy Signalling) in action as I now discover Yvonne Coombs had already made it the subject of a special painting, as in the message posted early this afternoon, almost simultaneously with Veronika’s. Thank you Lord and Yvonne for this message:

PRAY, FAST, ACTION FOR THE GOLD!

I had a very simple vision in my service today of the parting of the Red Sea and I shared that I felt the Lord was saying that he is dealing with and shall rid the chariots and horses from attacking yet, it must take a stepping out to actually cross that sea, that unity and a coming together must happen to cross it in fullness. Now in remembering this, I do believe it was for the church members and us as individuals to take those steps, but it must also be for this Country of the UK to step out together and i feel this is to be actioned right now through prayer and fasting, THAT COMPLACENCY IS STILL RIFE AMONG MANY STILL, CONCERNING PRAYER OVER THE UK. We are in a pivotal time and we cannot simply take it as read that God will quickly destroy the enemy chariots, if we haven’t even started crossing in togetherness, to that freedom.
Those who struggle, fasting can be on many levels, but it is all accepted and appreciated by our God, we can part fast, leave out a meal, for it is our movement of obedience that moves his heart and changes atmospheres.

I ask the Lord how it will look if we are in unity of movement and i see a giant gold ring hovering over the Houses of Parliament.I see a blow torch melting the gold from the ring as it drips over the building. “IF YOU CALL TO ME, I SHALL SURELY ANSWER YOU, IF YOU GO TO YOUR KNEES IN PRAYER AND CRY OUT TO ME, I SHALL SEAL YOUR UNITED KINGDOM IN GOLD! I SHALL SET MY STANDARD OVER YOU AND I SHALL GIVE OVER THE GOLD OF THE EGYPTIANS TO YOU AND I SHALL CALL YOU MY FAIR LAND, MY OASIS AND MY ACHIEVEMENT OVER YOU SHALL BE SEEN FROM THE NORTH, TO THE SOUTH, TO THE EAST AND TO THE WEST.”

I felt to paint this image and I saw a sword thrusting into the river Thames.
We have THE SWORD TO DECLARE AND PRAY. IT SHALL BEGIN A REVIVAL OF FIRE LIKE NO OTHER KNOWN BEFORE BUT, EVERY CHILD OF FAITH NEEDS TO USE WHAT WE HAVE BEEN GIVEN.

I believe the gold ring is a wedding band, a covenant promise, so let us say “I DO!”

A powerful dream of the United Kingdom becoming a signet ring of the Lord (GPS#31.1)

Last night and throughout the day I’ve been contemplating the direct relevance of the open vision I had in 2004 of the British Isles to our nations’ current situation and am preparing to blog about it next. Then I noticed that early this afternoon Veronika West published this on Ignite Ireland Ministry, which is apposite to mine and must take precedence:

A WORD FOR THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND….; ”WATCH”, says the Spirit of God, “FOR I SHALL TAKE YOU AND MAKE YOU LIKE MY SIGNET RING, FOR I HAVE CHOSEN YOU”, says God.

Friends, KEEPING PRAYING FOR THE NATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM THERE IS A BATTLE RAGING IN THE HEAVENS…I had a powerful dream 3 nights ago where I saw the the Nation of Great Britain and Northern Ireland being drawn up by the hand of God and as He took hold of the Nation it became as a GOLD RING, as I looked at the GOLD RING suddenly I saw the finger of God come forth from the heavens and the Gold Ring which was the Nation was put on His finger and I heard these words,

WATCH! FOR I SHALL TAKE YOU, THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND NORTHERN IRELAND, AND I SHALL MAKE YOU LIKE A SIGNET RING UPON MY FINGER, FOR YOU SHALL BECOME A SIGN AND A WONDER AMONG THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH”…!

Signet Ring

Vision of The Rock in Parliament

Have just received the following email from one of my lead contributors of material on the EU. Dave Chapman informs me,

“We had a gathering here last Thursday and one sister who was very encouraged from the ministry time had a waking picture/dream the next morning. She is a trusted friend and  woman of God. I felt it to be quite significant and have her permission to send on to you for encouragement and use if you choose.”

The Vision:

‘This morning as I awoke, God gave me a picture of a small rock that was thrown into the meeting chamber of the Houses of Parliament and it knocked the Mace to the floor. The rock was grey and spherical but I had the word ‘cornerstone’.

‘The rock then continued to grow and crushed the pews where the MPs sit and then it outgrew the chamber and crushed the walls of the Houses or Parliament to the extent that people who came to see the Houses of Parliament could see the rock poking out of the building.’

The Explanation:

‘The Rock is Jesus and God is not only shifting and shaking Parliament but He is also dismantling it and He will rebuild it. The rebellion and disobedience over Brexit has caused this and He is humbling Parliament and taking over this and the UK through our rebellion and disobedience.

‘The new Parliament and His glory through it and this nation will be attractive to many over the World. This will go out from the UK – both His rule and reputation over what He’s done here to the nations in parallel with the Gospel.’

Dave adds, “The Mace in Parliament is the symbol of royal authority and without it neither House can meet or pass laws. The House of Commons’ mace is a silver gilt ornamental club of about five feet in length, dating from the reign of Charles II.”

So we praise and thank you Lord for all You’re doing and about to do…

This vision immediately brings to mind king Nebuchadnezzar’s very troubling dream of a huge statue demolished by a small rock, and of OT prophet Daniel’s Holy Spirit-inspired full account of the secret dream and its meaning interpretation.:

“…You watched while a stone was cut out without hands, which struck the image on its feet of iron and clay, and broke them in pieces. 35 Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver, and the gold were crushed together, and became like chaff from the summer threshing floors; the wind carried them away so that no trace of them was found. And the stone that struck the image became a great mountain and filled the whole earth….”

Monday newsmix #6: chessboard vision again, shift in leadership

Yesterday Veronika West posted the following on Ignite Ireland Ministries Fb:

Sitting with ABBA this evening I was praying for the Nation and suddenly I saw the Nation again as a CHESS BOARD, the last time I saw this was THE NIGHT BEFORE THE ‘NO-CONFIDENCE VOTE WAS CALLED AGAINST THERESA MAY’, but as we know SHE WAS LOCKED IN PLACE FOR A LITTLE LONGER..! On this evening I saw the finger of God once again make a strategic move upon the Chess Board which was the Nation but this time I saw HIS HAND REMOVE A PIECE OFF THE CHESS BOARD AND THEN HE MOVED A NEW PIECE INTO ITS POSITION!!  (See GPS #25.1, also GPS #25.2 and GPS #25.3)

FRIENDS WATCH AND PRAY WE ARE ABOUT TO SEE A SHIFT IN LEADERSHIP TAKE PLACE IN THE DAYS AHEAD, PRAY FOR THE NATION AS I BELIEVE THIS WILL BE A “DIVINE TURNING POINT” FOR OUR NATION…!

Remember; “A DEATH AND A DIVINE ACCELERATION OF KINGDOM ADVANCEMENT IN THE MIDST OF DELAY”, LAZARUS DIED BUT WAS RAISED UP TO NEW AND GREATER LIFE AFTER 4 DAYS…!  (Prophetic Word on Brexit Delay)

GREAT BRITAIN DO NOT FEAR, A DEATH MUST COME, THE DELAY IS A DIVINE SET UP BY THE HAND OF GOD, “FOR RESURRECTION POWER SHALL BRING FORTH FROM THE GRAVE THE BIRTHING OF A NEW ERA FOR THIS NATION”..!

THE 29th OF MARCH 2019 WILL MARK THE DEATH OF A NATION THAT HAS BECOME DEPENDENT UPON ITS OWN RESOURCES, A DEATH TO PRIDE AND ARROGANCE, A DEATH TO SELF AND SELF-RELIANCE, AND YET IT SHALL BE A DEATH TO THE POWER OF LEVIATHAN THAT HAS KEPT THIS NATION BOUND..! WATCH! YET IN THE MIDST OF DELAY COMES A RAPID ACCELERATION OF KINGDOM ADVANCEMENT FOR THE NATION….!

Monday newsmix #2: a dream about the next Prime Minister

Houses of Parliament: courtesy FreeDigitalPhotos.net

In Windsor on 9th March, I was pleased to meet up with Jane and Andrew. Jane told me about a dream of hers, is content with publication and would welcome trusted prophetic people to offer any revelation about it.

In her email of Friday, Jane notes “There seems to be some urgent relevance to it considering the fact that there are more MPs seemingly wanting the PM to resign.”

‘In the dream my husband and I were in the Houses of Parliament. I just knew this to be true, although I didn’t recognise the room we were in to begin with. It was a small room about 20ft by 12ft or so, rectangular. There was a beautiful, old, black fireplace in the middle of the wall opposite the door.

‘Andrew and I were positioned behind a settee that was placed at 90 degrees to the fireplace towards the centre of the room. There was a man sat on the settee. We could see the back of his head which was partly balding with some fair/light brown/slightly reddish hair lower on his head.

‘Mrs May was standing at the fireplace looking towards him. She then turned to him and handed him what I believe was a scroll and said, “You are the next Prime Minister”. It is really good to note that the room was exceedingly English in its decor and furnishings, but it was NEW, old but new no fusty smell, nothing worn out just beautifully English.

‘The scene changed and we were walking down the corridor that is also a balcony which I remember being depicted in the recent film ‘The Darkest Hour’. I was walking beside the man who the PM had just told was to be the next Prime Minister. I had the sense that my husband was walking ahead with others. The man walking with me suddenly rested his head on my shoulder and said, “You are with me aren’t you? You will support me as Prime Minister?”

‘I remember feeling uncomfortable as though he’s manipulating me for an answer in his favour. With strength I was surprised at I turned around facing him squarely and said, “Only if you give us a full, clean Brexit!”  As I said that he seemed to vanish/melt away and a woman who I had seen on Politics Live and recognised as a strong Brexiteer stood before me. It was then that the dream ended. It is, I think, interesting to note that at no time did I see the facial features of the man who’s to be PM. His face was just blank.

‘I have been praying and as we learnt from Jennifer (Le Claire, the guest teacher) two weeks ago, the fact that Andrew and I were observing means it’s about watchmen and intercessory stuff. I would love though to know if anyone can see it clearly through the Holy Spirit.’

Prophecy Update 2.1: Press reports ‘no deal’ Brexit is ‘back from the dead’!

LATEST NEWS noted on Telegraph online in this posted at 2:17 pm under headline (my emphases),

Brexit Essentials: how a no-deal Brexit has come back from the dead – ‘If there’s one thing we do know about Parliament it’s that it really doesn’t like the idea of a ‘no-deal’ Brexit. MPs have voted against it on three separate occasions. None of those was legally-binding, but it did seem that last week MPs really had killed the idea off – they would force Theresa May to get a long Brexit extension or, at worst, back her deal, leaving ‘no-deal’ dead and buried.’

‘Yet now, ‘no-deal’ is hauling itself out of the grave and stalking the House of Commons once again. How has that happened? The answer lies within the Conservative Party.

‘Time and again, the PM has shown that she will choose party unity over anything else. Theresa just does not want to be the Prime Minister who split the Conservative Party for good. So this week, even though there was no sign of MPs backing her deal at the third time of asking, and a long delay to Brexit seemed to be the only option left, she caved to her party’s demands and asked for only a short extension.

‘Theresa probably didn’t even want a long extension. It was a useful tool to scare her backbenchers into supporting her. But it looks like the scare she gave them was too good, and instead of meekly surrendering, her MPs have come out swinging…’

This claim is closely (ie. not by direct, literal reference) related to what Veronika West prophesied on 8th January and reiterated last Friday, 15th March about a death being reversed. A copy of each follows for ease of reference. (Introducing the latter I observe it makes “an exceptional word to test in the near future as to its accuracy!”): Continue reading

Vision and word for Great Britain: no more enslavement to the EU!

Thank you to the Lord, Linda Bennett and UK Prophetic Words for the following, which resonates with two prophetic words shown in my footnotes:

During a prayer time whilst visiting friends in Wales the Lord gave me a vision of Britain from above and as I looked closer I could see many tentacles wrapped tightly around the countries of Britain squeezing tighter and tighter strangling the life out of Britain.

I enquired of the Lord what I was seeing and He said that that for too long Britain has not been great because it had ensnared itself with ungodly alliances which were never meant to be.

He said, “Do I not call nations into being? Did I not call this nation Great Britain? But, it is no longer great because they’ve sold their soul to the highest bidder. What looked like gold to a very few became like heavy brass around the necks of the people to enslave them to a godless agenda.”

The Lord said that Britain was Great because it was sovereign and not diluted by everyone else wanting a piece of her. He said it was time for Britain to be Great again and be the shining beacon He called her to be. No more entanglement. No more slavery to the godless ones. He said that He had heard the cries of His remnant who were crying out for freedom!

And as I looked I saw a man standing in the centre of tangled mess that was Britain. He was standing facing Europe with his hand outstretched towards Europe saying ‘LET MY PEOPLE GO’. It reminded me of the scene where Moses was demanding from Pharaoh to let his people go. He seemed larger than life and grew larger as the people prayed for freedom. Lord, raise up such a man!

And then God said, “IT’S TIME FOR MY SLEEPING LION OF GREAT BRITAIN TO WAKE UP AND ASK ME TO BREAK THE CHAINS OF THE GODLESS SOUL-TIES OF THE EU. NO MORE ENTANGLEMENT. NO MORE ENSLAVEMENT TO THE UNGODLY. FREEDOM AND PROSPERITY WILL RETURN TO MY LAND AND BRITAIN WILL BE GREAT BRITAIN AGAIN.”

In Psalm 2:8 God says ‘Ask of me and I’ll give you the nations as your inheritance’. People, it’s time to ask God to give us a GREAT BRITAIN again for our inheritance.

Linda G Bennett, 12th March 2019

With gratitude to the unknown artist of this superb picture

RB Footnotes:
  1. Rosemary’s comment of last month to Spiritual Nature of Brexit vs EU Battle on the 2005 vision Wendy Alec had of Gt Britain, which “ties in with my recent picture of hordes of people caught in a huge piece of knitting, which is made up of many different badly knitted pieces”.
  2. Neil’s prayer alert of last May To Cut and Cast off the EU’s Tentacles,  I saw that what I’d thought were mooring lines were alive and writhing! The Lord said these are the tentacles of the serpent that seeks to hold Great Britain in the web-like structure of nations that he is creating.

Prophetic painting of the Lion and Eagle, with Big Ben!!

“Trust in Me! I go before you Great Britain and MY WILL BE DONE!”

This striking picture by Yvonne Coombs was painted under holy inspiration and, according to Veronika West, she had NOT seen the words she’d posted the previous morning (and which featured in Tuesday’s blog, 12th March). Therefore, first read Veronika’s note posted Tuesday evening, followed by Yvonne’s account of painting TWO pictures:

‘This morning I shared how during a time of prayer for Great Britain I heard the Lion of Judah Roar and then I saw the Great Eagles Rise And Soar, And then I heard the Spirit say, “WATCH THE LION AND EAGLE SHALL ROAR AND SOAR IN THIS LAND AND THE TWO SHALL COME TOGETHER AS ONE”

‘CHECK THIS OUT; Yvonne Coombs was led to paint this incredible picture today and had NOT SEEN the word I posted this morning, she has only just posted this picture of the LION AND THE EAGLE…! 

“GLORY TO GOD, AMAZING HOW HE CONFIRMS HIS WORD THROUGH HIS MANY PROPHETS AND PROPHETESSES….!”

GPS #30.2: “Stand up!” emerging army of mighty prayer warriors

Rosemary Piercy writes to me about a command she heard and its related vision:

‘I felt that the Lord woke me up early to pray for the UK (Tuesday 12th March); as I started I heard the command “Stand up”! The scriptures came to me – “When you have done all, stand” and “Stand still and you will see the deliverance the Lord will do”.

‘As I watched, I saw thousands of people standing up all over Britain, in a great wave; many people were concentrated in the north-east but also in Manchester and London; they went well up into Scotland and Wales, then down in the south west. I did not see Ireland in the picture. This does not seem to fit in with your picture/words about marching, but it was very clear indeed. I think of the song “Arise, a mighty army, we arise” – maybe this is a preliminary to marching. Have you had any other words along these lines?’

I replied yesterday, and followed up today with a couple of questions,

‘Terrific! This would fit in between what Nina saw of a group of lounging WWII fighter pilots awaiting “Scramble!” and N’s instant reaction to her stressing the importance of the image and date received, which he gave as though an imperative “March forth!” rather than factual figure, fourth of March.  As you say, we need to stand up before we can do either of ‘scramble’ or ‘march’.

‘Also, there’s the difference of them being able to fly, like heavenly warriors of angels, and a ground-based army in that day’s word that I’d read earlier…’

‘Presumably the command and vision of people arising to stand refers to intercessors only? Or, all praying believers?? Or even – those who rise up in reaction to last night’s Parliamentary contempt for the people’s choice for Brexit???’

And so Rosemary responded,

‘Good questions! I feel strongly that it is for ALL praying believers – to stand up and be counted, and that it is not simply a reaction to our leaders’ disregard of the democratic process. I have been re-reading Ephesians 6, and was reminded of the command to stand (up) 3 times in the passage. We need to put our heads above the parapet regardless of the fact that the enemy will see us as well as God! Standing is an action that we need to take as we receive our “inheritance that will never perish, spoil, or fade”.’

As far as I’m aware Rosemary doesn’t use Facebook so may have been unaware of this which Veronika West had posted on Monday 11th; a precursor to what Rosemary heard and saw the next morning:

“AWAKENED TO LOVE: I SEE AN ARMY OF BURNING ONES SET ABLAZE WITH THE FIRES OF REVIVAL AND REFORMATION”…!

Early hours of this morning the Spirit of God woke me up from a very deep sleep and He spoke to me saying, “DAUGHTER LOOK AND SEE”, and as I heard those words suddenly a powerful vision opened up before me, where I saw what looked like a desert, a wilderness place, I could see heat waves rising up from the hot sands and then I heard these words, “LOOK AND SEE! WHO ARE THESE BURNING ONES COMING UP FROM THE WILDERNESS LEANING HEAVILY ON THE BELOVED!”, now as I listened and watched in the vision, suddenly I saw on the horizon what looked like a blazing forest fire which was sweeping across the hot sands with great momentum and acceleration, now as the raging fires drew closer and closer to me in the vision, suddenly I saw a large multitude of men, women and children who were SET ABLAZE WITH FIRE and like an army of burning bushes they moved in perfect unison across the land and then I heard these words, “THESE ARE THE BURNING ONES, NO LONGER WILL THEY BE CONTAINED, FOR THESE ARE APPOINTED DAYS OF GREAT AWAKENING, YES! AN AWAKENING TO LOVE, WATCH! FOR MY BURNING ONES ARE NOW ARISING AND ADVANCING ACROSS THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH CARRYING THE FLAME OF REVIVAL AND REFORMATION”!

As I came out of the Vision I began to pray fervently for the Nations and I heard the Spirit say, “DAUGHTER WATCH AND PRAY, FOR THIS IS THE SEASON OF THE SERAPHIM AND THE CHERUBIM, FOR MY BURNING ONES ARE NOW ARISING AND MY GLORY CARRIERS ARE NOW ADVANCING ACROSS THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH”…’

Then came confirmation for Rosemary in this of Wednesday 13th from Veronika:

WATCH…ITS BEGINNING TO TAKE PLACE IN THE EARTH, THE TIME IS NOW..!

I hear the Spirit of God say, “WATCH FOR THE TIME IS NOW, MY ECCLESIA WILL COME TOGETHER IN GREATER UNITY, POWER AND AUTHORITY, WATCH AS MY ECCLESIA ARISES AND ADVANCES IN THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH, WATCH FOR NOW A DIVINE CONVERGENCE IS TAKING PLACE BOTH IN THE HEAVENS AND ON THE EARTH, FOR THAT WHICH CAUSED DIVISION AND STRIFF SHALL NO LONGER STAND, WATCH! FOR I SAY TO YOU, THIS IS THAT WHICH HAS BEEN PROPHESIED BY MY FAITHFUL PROPHETS, RESTORATION AND DIVINE REFORMATION HAS NOW BEEN BIRTHED IN THE EARTH”, says God

“FIRESTORM, FOUR WHIRLWINDS AND THE FOUR FACES OF GOD…!

I saw a firestorm, four whirlwinds and the four faces of God!

In the early hours, I had a powerful prophetic encounter that I would like to share with you. I ask that you read carefully and prayerfully.

There is a sudden supernatural shift happening in the realms of the Spirit in this hour. Get ready, for there is an emerging Army of Mighty Warriors coming forth from a Firestorm of Glory. Watch, for the manifestation of greater signs, wonders and miracles!

In this encounter, I was taken onto a battlefield. The sky was filled with the colours of deep red and orange, and I heard the words, “The dawning of a New Day.”

The atmosphere was filled with great expectation and anticipation. I could see the mighty warriors of God standing at attention on the battlefield, each one strategically positioned in their respective ranks. I could see these mighty warriors were waiting!
I knew by divine revelation, that these warriors were “Waiting for heaven to touch earth.”
Then suddenly, a strong and mighty wind began to blow upon the battlefield. I watched as four mighty whirlwinds began to form in the distance. Suddenly I could see the Four Faces of God within the four whirlwinds.

I saw the face of the Eagle within the whirlwind, that came from the north. Then I saw the face of the Ox that came in the whirlwind from the west. Then the face of Man that came in the whirlwind from the south. Lastly I could see the face of the Lion that came in the whirlwind from the east.
Now the whirlwinds moved in unison, causing an immense dust storm to rise up from the ground, which filled the atmosphere with an even greater expectation and anticipation among the warriors of God.
Suddenly a bright flash of lightning lite up the horizon and I could see what looked like the rising sun. It was a large ball of fire which moved swiftly across the skies and towards the battlefield of warriors.

I watched closely as the mighty four whirlwinds moved upon the ball of fire, now I could see what looked like the Four Faces of God within the ball of blazing fire. The four whirlwinds seemed to push and propel the fiery ball forward.

I watched as the ball of fire drew nearer and nearer the battlefield. Suddenly, I could feel an intense heat from the ball of fire as it moved upon the battlefield of warriors. I could hear the shouts of great rejoicing.
Suddenly my eyes were illuminated by God’s Word and Truth and I instantly received a new measure and a greater level of ‘seeing’ and ‘understanding.’ Then, like a sharpened arrow, I felt the Fire and Power of God deeply penetrate the deepest parts of my heart.
There was an instant supernatural ignition and exchange that took place deep within me.
My focus became clearer, and now I watched as the fire ball moved upon the mighty warriors of God.

I could clearly see the Four Faces within the Four Whirlwinds within the Fire. I could see the Fire of God in the Whirlwind of the Ox, touching the mighty warrior Evangelists, igniting and empowering them with a greater power, strength and Authority for the end-time harvest.

Then I watched the fire of God within the whirlwind of the Eagle, now touching the mighty warrior Prophets, each one receiving greater insight, deeper revelation, accurate and precise vision. I watched as the fire of His glory touched their lips, and like hot coals they glowed brighter and brighter.

Then I watched as the fire of God within the whirlwind of Man touched the mighty warrior Shepherds. The fire deeply penetrated their hearts giving them a new level of humility, meekness, power and compassion.

Then I saw the fire of God in the whirlwind of the Lion touching the mighty warrior Apostles each one received a new level and a greater measure of divine wisdom, authority, might, humility and revelation.

Then I watched as these fiery, burning and Anointed ones moved together in perfect unity. There were none greater than the other. Shoulder to shoulder, and shield to shield they advanced and moved forward as one mighty army. They moved, marched and advanced forward with one purpose, one vision and one mission.

Their hearts were set ablaze with the Fires of His Glory and Power. I hear, “These are the mighty warriors that are now emerging in greater power and greater authority upon the earth”!

Veronika West: a rising star and a kiss of betrayal

This afternoon Veronika West posted the following on Ignite Ireland Ministries Fb:

A STAR IS RISING OVER THE NATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM: A SIGN OF THE BIRTHING OF A NEW ERA.

Two nights ago I had a dream where I saw a STAR RISING OVER THE NATION OF THE UNITED KINGDOM AND AS I LOOKED AT THE STAR I SAW A MULTITUDE OF WARRIOR ANGELS GATHERING AROUND THE BOUNDARIES OF THE NATION AND THEN I HEARD THESE WORDS, “A STAR RISES IN THE HEAVENLIES AS A SIGN OF THE BIRTHING OF NEW ERA OVER THIS NATION”, as I heard those words suddenly I heard the sound of a NEW-BORN BABY’S CRY GO FORTH ACROSS THE NATION. As I heard the piercing cry go forth I looked again at the RISING STAR AND I HEARD THE ANGELS BEGIN TO SING IN ONE ACCORD,

“ARISE SHINE FOR THE GLORY OF THE LORD HAS NOW RISEN UPON YOU!”

 As the multitude of Angels sang, I WATCHED AS THE NATION BEGAN TO RISE, RISE, RISE AND THEN I SAW THE GLORY OF HEAVEN FALL UPON THE NATION LIKE A THICK HEAVY BLANKET.

WATCH! A STAR IS RISING, THE BIRTHING OF A NEW ERA…!

An Urgent Word for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland,  Brexit….. and…. Divine breakthrough in the days ahead…!

The Spirit of God says, “Fear not, for this is the hour of your divine turning, a turning towards the ‘Son’, for now a new day and a new dawn is breaking upon the land!

“Look not to the right nor to the left but look up.

“Lift up for your eyes to the mountains from where your help comes, it comes from The LORD, the maker of heaven and earth.

“Fear not!  For I have heard the cries of the oppressed in this nation.

“I have heard the cries of repentance and I have decreed liberty and justice over this nation!

“Watch!  As My Glory now rises upon the people of this great land.

“Watch and be still, for where the enemy has come in like a mighty flood, I AM now raising a new standard in this nation.

“Listen!  Pay attention to what will now take place in this nation, for My Spirit of Truth and Righteousness now goes forth to uncover and expose what has been hidden in darkness.

“Fear not!  But remember Judas.  Remember the kiss of betrayal, for surely I tell you, that which I have started in this nation shall be brought to divine completion and perfection and that which has been planned and purposed by the hand of the enemy, shall not prosper but shall fall to the ground and die,”  says The Spirit of God!

‘Power and Purification Prophecies’ – #2: The Seer Anointing

No. 2 of 4 – THE SEER ANOINTING

“As the cloud of My Presence descends a heavy seer anointing will fall upon the obedient of My People, who have not succumbed to the tolerance of sin in their lives and the world outside of them,” says the Lord. “This greater anointing of My Spirit comes with a price, My Children, but if you will open up the windows of your souls and allow a great cleansing to take place, the gifts that I have so freely bestowed without repentance will be mighty in My sight. Count the costs my children, for the seer anointing means both the seen and the unseen will be made known to you by My Spirit; and both the evil and the good. And such things carry responsibility,” says the Lord. “but I will give you strength and forbearance in the days ahead. For the days coming will be the times of great wonders as I sweep across this land and many lands. Rise up and be courageous sons and daughters for now is the time to position yourselves for the days of fire and ashes are upon you,” says the Lord of Hosts.

Update on American’s dreams of Big Ben and implied political and national ‘shake-down’

‘See that you do not refuse Him who speaks. For if they did not escape who refused Him who spoke on earth, much more shall we not escape if we turn away from Him who speaks from heaven, whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, “Yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven.” Now this “Yet once more,” indicates the removal of those things that are being shaken, as of things that are made, that the things which cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we [l]may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. For our God is a consuming fire.’ [Hebrews 12:25-29 – Biblegateway]

On Saturday 2nd March Tony Puccio posted Big Ben: Another Dream wherein he says:

‘I had a dream last night where I was in a room with many gear wheels moving in various directions. Then I was shown the face of a clock and realized it to be Big Ben. I saw that the hands were about to strike 12 and as they did the clock began to crumble. I watched it fall in the same way the twin towers fell. The twin towers, if you recall, were hit by planes used as bombs. I can’t say that this was the case here although the analogy was in my dream.’

This is the next in a sequence of five dreams, which I listed in January here, but it does not appear to be entirely prophetical for it describes the current state of unprecedented upheaval across British politics that’s arisen from attempting to implement the largest ever electoral vote in our political history, the Referendum of 2016. This instructed the government to remove the UK from membership of the European Union.

That is, it shows Britain’s at its midnight hour – all seems to be falling to rack and ruin, for it’s part of the shaking foretold in scripture and by many prophetical voices of late. However, there is hope that someone good [LOL – just noted the typo: it should read ‘something’; but best left alone!] will come out of this, as clearly implied in the previous dream Tony recorded on 13 Sept 2017, Big Ben Attack By Insiders:

‘I had a dream where I saw a group of people gathered around Big Ben. Everyone in the group had sledge hammers in their hands. Not the kind one would see if one were breaking up rocks or driving a railroad spike but rather the smaller one but nonetheless still capable of inflicting damage if used to do so. With that said I saw people gathered around Big Ben and they were beating it with sledge hammers and inflicting damage to it, However, each time those striking Big Ben would inflict damage to it, the damage inflicted would miraculously be restored as if nothing had happened. I remember hearing Parliament in the dream so I am assuming that it was them who were attacking the clock although their attempts in the dream were futile. This is the first time that I recall in dreams I’ve had about Big Ben where the government was involved in attacking it.’ [Emphasis RB]

TIMING

I wasn’t moved to re-blog that latest dream and the last couple of days have been too busy to do so. Also, I was waiting further developments and thus thinking of linking in some parliamentary news. But today I noted an apposite comment had been posted overnight by Dave Hood to London On The Brink: 4 Nights of Prayer and, in my spirit, know that although noted 14 years ago, it connects directly into that dream’s reference to the miraculous restoration of ‘Big Ben’ – and so is important to consider and weigh.

Urgent Prayer for President Trump in the lions’ den – Veronika West

Posted approx 8am today on her Ignite Ireland Ministries facebook, Veronika West reports the following, which as with all prophetical matters is for your weighing and discernment with the Lord and scripture:

AN URGENT DREAM CONCERNING PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP; 
“WATCH FOR THE DEN HAS BEEN PREPARED AND THE BLOOD-THIRSTY LIONS LIE IN WAIT””…!

I come to you today, it’s 3am in the morning I have woken from a powerful dream concerning President Donald Trump where I was shown a GREAT UPHEAVAL THAT IS COMING IN THE DAYS AHEAD, in this dream I found myself standing in a dark dungeon type place and the SMELL OF THE AIR IN THAT PLACE IS HARD TO DESCRIBE BUT IT WAS THE SMELL OF BLOOD AND OF LIONS (having been brought up as a child in a Wildlife Conservation I KNOW THE SMELL OF LIONS), it is a SMELL SO DISTINCT THAT IT IS A SMELL THAT IS UNMISTAKABLE…! As I stood in that dark place my nostrils filled with the smell of (blood and acid like tones), I BEGAN TO FEEL FEAR RISE UP WITHIN ME, then suddenly I saw a bright light appear round about me and an Archangel of the Lord stood before me in the dream and spoke to me saying, “FEAR NOT, for you have been brought to this place for what is about to take place”, as I listened suddenly the dream shifted I was taken high above the WHITE HOUSE WHERE I WAS SHOWN A SMALL OPEN WINDOW (which faced SOUTH) AND AS I LOOKED THROUGH THE OPEN WINDOW I SAW PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP KNELT DOWN UPON HIS KNEES LOOKING UP TO HEAVEN, and as I looked at him I saw A GREAT BATTLE TAKING PLACE OVER THE LAND and, as I watched him cry out to the Lord, suddenly I saw the Archangel GABRIEL STANDING ABOVE HIM WITH A FLAMING SWORD LIFTED HIGH ABOVE THE PRESIDENT’S HEAD AND I WATCHED AS THE BLADE OF THE SWORD TOUCHED HIM AS IF HE WERE BEING KNIGHTED and then I saw President Donald Trump STAND TO HIS FEET and suddenly I saw a MANTLE FALL UPON HIM THAT FLOWED LIKE LIQUID GOLD, THE MANTLE OF GOLD COVERED HIM FROM HEAD TO TOE AND I WATCHED AS IT BECAME LIKE A BODY OF IMPENETRABLE ARMOUR, and the Angel of the Lord left him…! (I woke up)

As I woke up my body my covered in sweat and I was praying so loudly in the Spirit that my son was awoken.., as I reassured my son that all was well I began to feel A GREAT URGENCY TO PRAY FOR THE LAND OF AMERICA AND THE PRESIDENT as I began to cry out to the Lord the atmosphere was HEAVY, it felt as if I was WALKING IN THICK SAND, but as I prayed and warred in the Spirit suddenly the Spirit of God spoke to me saying,

“WATCH AND PAY ATTENTION, PRAY PRAY PRAY FOR THE NATION OF AMERICA AND FOR PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP FOR IT SHALL BE LIKE IN THE DAYS OF DANIEL WHEN MY FAITHFUL SERVANT WAS THROWN INTO THE LIONS’ DEN, WATCH! FOR THEY SHALL COME TOGETHER AND THEY SHALL CONSPIRE WITH ONE ANOTHER TO DESTROY THAT WHICH I HAVE DECREED AND THAT WHICH I HAVE DECLARED OVER THE LAND AND THEY SHALL LOOK TO CATCH HIM OUT AND THEY LOOK TO GRAB HOLD OF HIM TO UTTERLY DESTROY HIM, FOR SURELY I TELL YOU THE DEN HAS BEEN MADE READY AND THE HUNGRY LIONS NOW LIE IN WAIT”, says the Spirit of God.

“WATCH AND PRAY CALL A FAST FOR THEY SHALL COME TOGETHER AS ONE FROM THE LEFT AND FROM THE RIGHT, YES! THERE WILL BE THOSE WHO SHALL COME FROM THE RIGHT THAT SHALL SAY, “HOW CAN THIS BE”, BUT I TELL YOU MANY HEARTS WILL BE TURNED COLD BY A STRONG SPIRIT OF LIES AND DECEPTION, YES! EVEN A SPIRIT OF MURDER DWELLS IN THE MIDST OF THEM, FOR THEY HAVE HATCHED A PLAN AND THEY HAVE PUT TOGETHER A PLOT TO OVERTURN AND OVERTHROW THAT WHICH HAS BEEN ESTABLISHED. BUT LISTEN, STAY VIGILANT IN THIS HOUR, WATCH AND PRAY, FOR SURELY I TELL YOU AGAIN, JUST AS THE DAY THEY THREW DANIEL INTO THE LIONS’ DEN SO THEY SHALL THEY COME TOGETHER IN GREAT UNITY AND AUTHORITY IN THIS DAY TO THROW A PRAYING PRESIDENT INTO THE DEN OF HUNGRY LIONS. TELL MY PEOPLE IF THEY WILL LOOK TO ME AND CRY OUT TO ME IN THIS HOUR I SHALL SEND MY ANGELS OF PROTECTION INTO THE MIDST OF THEM, YES! INTO THE STORM OF RISING LIES AND FALSE ACCUSATIONS AND INTO THE MIDST OF THE ROARING LIONS AND THEIR BLOOD-THIRSTY MOUTHS SHALL BE SHUT CLOSED AND THAT WHICH WAS CONCEIVED IN THE WOMB OF DARKNESS SHALL NOT COME TO FULL TERM BUT SHALL SURELY BE FULLY ABORTED AND BROUGHT TO NOTHING”, says the Spirit of God.

“NOW WATCH, FOR I STAND OVER MY WORD TO PERFORM IT IN THIS HOUR AND IN THIS DAY, FOR THE NATION OF AMERICA SHALL SEE MY GLORY AND THEY SHALL SEE MY HAND MOVE IN MIGHTY AND YET MORE MYSTERIOUS WAYS IN THE DAYS AHEAD, FOR I HAVE SET MY SEAL UPON MY SERVANT AND A MANTLE OF KINGSHIP AND HE SHALL BECOME MY TRUMPET FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE IN THE LAND AND NO MAN SHALL TOUCH MY ANOINTED AND LIVE”, says the Spirit of God.

Fulfilled Prophecies #39 & #40 – offence at Holy Spirit’s moving; from Mozambique to Mecca

The following word published as GPS#10 on 19 December 2017 is now republished because the situation it prophesies about has been repeated. Not only did that word confirm a vision received the same day 120 miles away, but also it spoke into a debate I’d been having in-depth over many days on a website purporting to cover prophecy!

In a Vision of Entrants to the Kingdom and Players in a Pigpen, Simon Braker of Leicester notes,

‘..It was at this point that I noticed there were other people in front of the door. Most of them ignored the Holy Spirit; others actually argued with Him when He directed them to a door to enter through. Still others were trying to climb up to the high doors but they would keep falling; each time they fell they became more and more bitter.

‘I then saw another group; they were shouting, ”You must only come through this door,” and not only did they try to force people through it, but they also tried to stop people going through the other doors the Holy Spirit was directing them to.

‘I could see that as a new door opened for a person it would sit upon the other open doors that person had, so each new door sat upon the others.

‘I then saw another group of people to the side of the door; they were all together rolling around in the mud in a pigpen. They were blind to their door for the mud covered their eyes; I could see many had been in the mud so long that they had begun to rot in the midst of it.

‘Upon the door I saw the words – THE REVELATION OF THE CHRIST AND HIS KINGDOM.’

That day in Kingston-upon-Thames, Brett Dewey writes in THOSE HOLDING ON TO OFFENCE WILL NOT ENTER INTO THE NEXT MOVE OF GOD’S SPIRIT:

‘During My time of fasting and praying in October (2017) I was given a dream. In my dream I was standing upon an old wall overlooking the ocean. I pointed out towards the ocean and began to prophesy:

“A WAVE IS COMING, A WAVE IS COMING!”

‘Next thing I could see, there was a huge wave which was rolling in from the back. The wave came in and went half way up the beach. An old lady was on the beach and the water came to her feet. Even though she had wellington boots on she didn’t like the water being on her feet and walked off the beach.

‘I was again on the wall and looked out to the sea and began to prophesy “A WAVE IS COMING, A WAVE IS COMING”. Straight away a huge wave came in from the back.

‘This time the wave came right up to the beach and completely covered it. There was, however, a divider between the waters and right over the back on the right hand side, some distance from the shore, were a small group of people playing in the surf and having fun on their surf boards, enjoying the wave.

‘I then looked and I was standing by a teal green fence and it was like I was holding onto a fence. A woman who was standing on an old wall a little higher than the fence started trying to prophesy to me, but when I looked into her eyes she was of another Spirit not the Holy Spirit – so I called fire on her and she disappeared out my dream.

‘I then heard the Spirit of God speak saying:

“Those that are holding on to offence will not be able to enter in to the next wave of My Spirit.”

‘Also the woman prophesying that wasn’t of God presented herself as a Prophet, but was a woman who was a Christian; in offence she had been prophesying out of a divination spirit – as those in offence open the door to function from that Spirit when allowing it in – WATCH FOR THIS!

‘I first took the dream personally as a warning for me not to enter into offence – but later while attending a connect group in our Church, I felt led to release it – shortly after for the next few weeks I had fun walking out this word as that Spirit of Offence came through different vessels trying to find access to my life and calling, but never prevailed.

‘November’s 2017 Fire conference on the Saturday – I again saw this Spirit of Offence. I began asking the Lord what this was and had I offended him in any way – I began repenting – The Lord said that there would be many who would be offended because of Him. I felt a peace and a witness that what He was going to do in the next wave of glory would be offensive to many – especially people that had no room for GOD’S sovereignty in their mindsets.

‘I was also was reminded about the old woman, whom I believe represented an old Church, in my dream above – perhaps one set in religion, or tradition passed down – she didn’t like what the Spirit did and didn’t want to be in the water, which depending on the colour, represents the Spirit. She was stuck in tradition and legalism and hadn’t grasped the concepts of GOD’S enormous grace and sovereignty.

‘I also believe the Lord encourages us not to be offended if other churches despise you or are offended, because you let God’s work be done and His Spirit manifest in all his Glory in the midst of your meetings. Hold fast to what is true. This is what the next wave will bring.

‘Also I want to include that recently after releasing a word in our Church – KingsGate, Kingston – about turning the page and not being stuck on a page in the book of our life – as God has started your story and there was more – turn the page and keep walking – after I went and laid down before the Lord as His Presence became more manifest, again I saw this Spirit of Offence come out of a dark place – this time it was pinging back and forward looking for a place to land on the Church – I felt this was a prayer point and also it was an assignment from the enemy to abort us from enjoying the next wave of God’s glory which he has planned to be released in our meetings at a very large proportion.

‘I should have bound it when I saw it, but I just waited to hear more from the Lord about it.

‘Last of all I will record the vision I saw in the December One Voice prayer meeting in our church. During worship I was focusing on the Lord and watching for His Spirit – I saw myself in what was the top floor of an office building. I was sitting in a chair looking up with my eyes closed but could see all that was in the room.

‘Suddenly the whole roof lifted up off the floor and there were just open heavens – I had the feeling the Lord was removing restrictions – possibly the restrictions of man – we have perhaps put limitations on God – He removed the roof: there was no limit now – all restrictions man-made or otherwise being removed in Jesus name…’

PERSONAL NOTES

In the original of this posting, I explain excitement in my spirit was not only because of what’s cited above, but also and more especially because the last part of Brett’s vision (about being in an office and seeing the heaven opened) relates directly to the dream of September 2011 wherein I watch and declare, “They’re setting up The Kingdom!”

That dream’s content amazingly coincided with what happened at the Revival Alliance meeting in Westminster, as reported in ‘Father Let Your Kingdom Come’. That ‘God-incidence’ propelled me into blogging within weeks.

If you read that email, please note the direct connection between the dream and what Bill Johnson had prophetically mused about that date being retrospectively regarded as the day when, from a Kingdom viewpoint, things started changing in Britain.

Consequently, I regarded both visions on 14th December 2017 as confirming the stance I’d taken disputing claims against modern moves of the Holy Spirit. I blogged on it when telling how EIGHT ‘God-incidents’ Validate Three Visions, just like pieces of an invisible jigsaw puzzle!!

In view of that and earlier intrusions from self-appointed heresy hunters I inserted a clarification in ‘An Introduction to Prophecy’, which is now a separate reference page Beware – A Word of Warning.

Fulfillment #39

Therefore, having that revelation in connection with Bill Johnson – and his associates in the Revival Alliance – as well as having attended dozens of their meetings, I disagree with Prophecy TodayUK’s opinion about other followers of Jesus Christ at Wembley Day of Prayer for the UK on 29th January – and in later articles on their site!

In fact, the next day a visitor here left five critical messages on posts about Heidi Baker drawing attention to and questioning her association with Bill. Presumably that person has never met those whom they criticise?

Having supported Prophecy Today UK’s relaunch online and kindly permitted to reprint several of Dr Clifford Hill articles, and had pleasant, satisfactory dealings with managing editor Frances Rabbitts, I’m most disappointed in their continued criticism of other non-perfect leaders. (Yes, I know there could be many improvements in their operations.)

I cannot recollect, however, anything prophetic or of the Holy Spirit being brought by the Reverend Doctor other than sound biblical teaching and application for our days. So I have to question whether or not he has the gift of prophecy? He does not function in the office of prophet and I do hope all their denigration of what Holy Spirit has been and is doing (eg. claiming it’s demonic kundalini spirit – from which I was delivered years ago!) hasn’t resulted in their committing the unforgivable sin!

According to the above word, those brethren are unwilling to recognise and will, therefore, be barred from entering into the next wave of Holy Spirit’s power and presence!

In my opinion, they’d be wise to avoid aiding and abetting the Accuser of the Brethren, thus giving succour to the enemy of our souls and hater of humanity.

Fulfillment #40

The first time I saw Heidi, the Lord gave me an open vision indicative of the anointing the Bakers carry. My email 8 years ago of Dutch Sheets speaking about A Third Great Awakening? recounts the details:

‘Dutch’s descriptions reminded me of a vision of holy fire sweeping up the eastern side of Africa from Mozambique (where Rolland and Heidi Baker have brought whole Muslim provinces to Jesus), up to Sudan and Egypt and then into the Arabian peninsula! Even so, the one who would usurp God’s throne will no doubt get stirred up. So we shall see…

‘[2012 Note: The vision came when I first saw Heidi addressing a conference in Toronto. Suddenly, it was as though I was in orbit over central Africa and saw tall flames leaping high into the atmosphere over the whole of Mozambique and which spread northwards. The Mediterranean coast sat on the curvature of the globe and I saw the flames go along it and across the Sinai peninsular (thus, into Arabia). Upon speaking to Rolland Baker a year or so later, he told me the vision is like that which their director Supresa Sithole had for Iris Ministries (in his early days with them).]

Therefore, we could say recent visits by evangelical leaders to Egypt, Jordan and the Middle-East, as well as President Trump’s personal envoys to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, are taking that fire into those Muslim nations. Not to forget on 14th anniversary of 9/11 a lightning bolt struck a significant building in Mecca (read Kingdom-related Events Since Lightning Strike on Mecca’s Grand Mosque).

Personally and most importantly, I cannot forget the night Toronto’s John Arnott didn’t deliver his prepared message because, “I think the Lord wants to heal tonight!” Within minutes my dear wife, officially registered as ‘permanently disabled’, was fully enabled to leave her wheelchair behind – and returned other apparatus!!! (Testimony here)

Selah…

PS. Yet another God-incidence – and whilst writing! It’s very encouraging because I’d intended blogging on what I had over the weekend on Ireland and EU. But after having noted a friend’s brief comment on Wembley prayer day and then receiving an unhappy email from a Facebook contact, I was simply going to copy GPS#10 – but then found myself carried away!

NOW, this may be hard to believe, but it’s true, as God and my wife are my witness..:

In finishing writing above, I took a phone call for Nina as she was chatting to our friend in the lounge. ‘R’ wanted to ask my opinion on a disturbing book she’s got, but Nina didn’t want to interrupt me as it’s my full blogging day before starting our long weekend.

So she asked ‘R’ to phone later and talk about its author: ‘Clifford Hill’ – not knowing he’s the very subject I’m writing about !!

Thus I’ve got a clear, God-incidental confirmation now’s the time to blog about him.

Triple synchronisation of ‘jigsaw pieces’ on Time!

A week ago today three ‘invisible jigsaw’ pieces fell into place and left me in awestruck wonder. So, allow me to ‘blow your mind’ – or rather to open it up your spiritual senses!
1st Puzzle Piece

Last Monday lunch-time I had opportunity to open up a book Nina recommended a few months ago, and in which she’d left many coloured tabs.

I’d long been wanting to get back into that book dear ol’ Mahesh Chavda had given me when he was in Shoreham, East Sussex, maybe 10 years ago. So a half-hour opportunity over lunch, after taking Nina to an appointment, enabled me to dip into it.

I managed most of the first chapter of Watch Of The Lord (published 1999) but of several significant points in ‘The Birth of the Watch’, I was especially struck by his wife Bonnie’s description of a vision of the Lord:

‘Suddenly, the Lord came as though from behind and stuck His right arm…in front of my face. I was staring at His hand, wrist and forearm as though it was the arm of a man before my eyes…There was a place around His wrist in the distinct shape of a wristwatch, where the skin had not been darkened by the sun. Obviously, He usually wore His watch there and had done so habitually for a long time. But the watch itself was missing. He said, “My watch is being repaired” His tone was not casual – it was crucial!’

You can read all about this by enlarging the following photos of pages 11 & 12:

2nd Puzzle Piece

I returned home and was able to continue working on the 2,000th post, telling about an actual public library and a dream about its symbolical disappearance and replacement by the ‘cyber-library’ on this website. In fact, I was completing the list of ‘sections’ and ‘shelves’ with the extensive library that had been compiled on my ‘Watch’.

However, I noticed a notification of a posting by Tony Puccio over in Tucson, Arizona, had arrived whilst I was away. It reads as follows and you’ll note its exceptionally appropriate title (click title for direct link)
A GOLD WATCH

When I think of a gold watch I think of a pocket watch given to a retiree. Or a fancy wrist watch, i.e., a Rolex. In the dream I had last night I was given a gold wrist watch. I remember that there were people who tried to steal it from me and then there were others who wanted to buy it from me.

The following scripture was dropped into my heart following the dream.

Eph 5:15 — Eph 5:16 (NKJV Strong’s)
Walk in Wisdom
See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

Time is a precious commodity that one cannot control and that which is given to is a gift from God. In the dream I mentioned people trying rather forcefully, I might add, to steal the watch from me. These represent people and things, I believe that either steal your attention, I call people like this energy drainers. The watch represented time which they may or may not know is a priceless commodity.Things represent those “things” that can dominate our time and the hours fly by. example, I remember when the internet first came out I would spend hours mindlessly searching it. The watch in my dream was on my wrist where it was both visible to me and others. It was not in my pocket where it would get an occasional glance at most. A portion of time is given to every individual and were are commended as Christians to redeem, make the most of every opportunity, the time because the days are evil.

I had a similar dream 8 years ago that I am reposting below (continue reading here)
3rd Puzzle Piece

Later, in the Monday evening I noticed the following notification arrived in connection with a comment made practically three months earlier to a blog that used the same title I’d got and been listing at the close of the post on my cyber-library in the Time:A Primer section – The Nature of Time:

Click/tap to read Patrick’s posting The Nature of Time

SO we have the arrival of THREE items synchronised within 8 hours of one another that are all connected in one way or another to time, telling time and the passage of time.

Don’t you think the Lord is deliberately pointing out something important’s happening or about to take place?

SELAH!
