Word of Discernment: The battleground has shifted – cont’d

THE BATTLEGROUND HAS SHIFTED III: THE ANCIENT BATTLEFIELD OF THE PROMISED LAND

We are the generation that crossed into the promised land; but the wars on the way to the promised land are pale in comparison to what is in the promise. The temptation and battles that cohabiting with demonic ideologies bring leave one in a long-stretch tug-of-war.

The Scriptures shows us how their failure to wipe out demonic structures in the land became their greatest undoing. In a moment in time, a righteous king will emerge and lead unto victories; and they would have rest for a season; and afterwards another king would come who would do injustice and service the perverse altars and they would be besieged in their land for a longer period of time; and this tug of war continued for so long a time, much longer than the sum of times they spent in Egypt and on the way to the promise.

The promised land is an ancient battlefield; it has been the call from the beginning; and is the destination; it is the land destined to rule over other lands, but a greater challenge is being besieged even in the promised land; a place destined to be a place of rest. We are the generation crossing into the ancient battlefield of the promise; the battlefield has shifted. For nations exiting national councils and covenants that have been a strong yoke; the battlefield has shifted; to dwell in safety; we must labor to pull down strongholds that exists in the land; establish the righteous covenant to The LORDSHIP OF JESUS; that we may gain rest and be fed with milk and honey.

THE BATTLEGROUNDS HAVE SHIFTED IV: THE HOMELANDS, THE HIGHWAYS AND THE PALACES

Most times when we consider places of warfare the mind wanders far away; to popular highways in the city, entrance gates of cities; governmental buildings; but very little do people consider the very location of their home as a map in contest !

The LORD through Moses had wrought a great warfare in Egypt; contending at the palace; shaking significant hotspots in the city; but the one that broke many doors at once; was the final plague; and it was the one directed to the first-born, as seen in Exodus 11:1. The most significant part of this was the fact that the first-born served either as priests or heirs to the family priesthood that serviced the family altars that had idols seated in their homes. So it was first a strike against the idols and perverse altars within the map of the homelands; and an eventual striking out the priests to these idols of the homelands that broke Egypt; and Israel obtained from these homelands such great transfer of wealth.

Inheriting the promise land gives us similar picture; this time The LORD Commanded Joshua as seen in Judges 2; that they must throw down the perverse altars of those that had been in the land; and just as we had seen in Egypt; both those in the palaces and the highways; and those in the homelands were to be contended against. This is what Gideon did that stirred the breakthrough; he advanced to gain. The battlefield has shifted; have you discerned the spiritual state of your homeland? and have you established the covenant of The LORDSHIP OF JESUS CHRIST?

For like Gideon; we must pull down the strongholds in the homelands if we must march through the walls of Jericho to capture the palaces and the highways.

Word of Discernment: Prophecy is manifold – Abel Praise

On Monday, mulling over a critical article about ‘The UK Blessing’ video and its popularity, I mentioned it in passing to Abel Praise as I believe he sensed something going on.  After considering it he replied about prophecy being manifold, and which makes an excellent follow-up to Rosemary P’s following comment to Our Father’s Joy in Facing the Evil One (brought by Wanda Alger):

“YES and yes! We are in an intensifying battle, and this is why both those calling for repentance and those who see the awakening coming are, in a sense, both right. Yes, we need to repent, and yes, we need to also fix our eyes on what the Lord is doing around the world.” 

After kindly permitting my publishing this excellent insight, Abel explains:

“Prophecy is Manifold will help to give a broader perspective; and the battlegrounds. Truly; there are many in The Body who need to gain the right perspective on all that’s taking place because of the many questions arising in their hearts.”

PROPHECY IS MANIFOLD

Even Prophecies of Justice are manifold, The Prophet Jeremiah also spoke about the promised redemption of Israel; because The LORD attempts to capture both the actions that brought about the consequences of judgment; and also the redemptive pathway to restoration.

Also, in a time like this; the pandemic; the closure of Churches; and all that’s going on; the operations of prophecy and the unfolding season is manifold. For instance; it is true that the pandemic and the complexities it brought can be traced deep down to some significant spiritual gates that were compromised that watchmen lost sight of; and it gave birth to all the actions in the natural that is playing out. Yet in the outbreak of the disease; being the consequence of that loss, the Principles of Faith, Love and Hope play out and in the midst of the consequences The LORD uses it to hold HIS Body together to cushion the effects so the enemy doesn’t overplay his hands;

* Faith: There are those who through their walk with The LORD have grown up in a measure of faith that cannot be affected by this disease. They will have a responsibility to minister to those who have not grown in that measure of faith. This is where The Blessing Video plays a part.

* Hope: Even while in Egypt; and when Israel was in Babylon; The LORD would always send Prophets of Hope; to minister to HIS people that salvation would come though it may tarry because the judgments have a set time; but even in judgments; The LORD guards jealousy The Faith of HIS own and doesn’t want to loose them completely. The Blessing song also plays a part here in ministering hope.

* Love: This is where in the midst of being punished The LORD also wants HIS people to have love shared in their hearts; so that they can be in the state of being healed unto repentance; and also experience repentance unto healing; cos it can happen in several folds.

* The Judgments: Most of what we call judgments are consequences of actions or inactions and immediate reactions or responses by the principles of The Kingdom. If a watchman sleeps at his duty post, the thief would come in and plot destruction in the household; in many cases; people experience the consequences even when there is yet a sentence in Heaven’s Court that proclaims judgment. During the time when consequences are in play; that’s when The LORD sounds the alarm for repentance.

* Maturing in prophetic ministry brings the perspective of the manifold streams that a prophetic word, experience, season reveals. Even when The LORD wields the rod of correction; we cannot say we have seen it all; if we have not heard the perspective of HIS Heart from which that action is taken.

* So are we seeing some form of consequences or high places activities that has created the pandemic scenario; obviously. Are we seeing the negligence of The Church; absolutely; However; there is Faith, Hope and Love at work; and all of these play their part to bring The Church into correction and growth. For what it seems; The Blessing video may be doing a job of bring the nation through the pathway of healing unto repentance; because there are those who at this point have realized through the coming together it has created that they have been negligent for so long in many areas.

Selah!

Why the Lord doesn’t always show us our future — Wanda Alger

Quote

Following my introductions in this trilogy upon a common theme, I’m humbled to hear the Lord too refers to the ‘Counterfeiter’…

Don’t be anxious about the increased political control or tyrannical oppression that is hanging over our nation. The principalities from hell may believe they are advancing, but they are headed towards a trap with no way back. If we can put up with some temporary madness and seeming loss, the enemy is playing right into…

This profound word on how Abba laughs at the Adversary, as shared with Wanda, goes hand-in-hand with the previous post on Steve Hepden’s insight about Jesus’ trial and the counterfeit ‘son‘…

We are in a protracted battle that is not ending any time soon. We are facing things many of us never thought possible. Not only is our nation in massive turmoil and chaos, spiritual forces are pressing upon believers and we need to gird ourselves for the days ahead. 727 more words

News of three more prophecies coming to pass – the UK and the EU!

Time to wrap up news over the last few days of more prophecies moving into fulfillment, as well as today’s 1 o’clock news of the prophesied virtual church crashing the internet! Numbers shown below are for logging purposes within Prophecies Fulfilled catalogue, now nearly 190 examples!

First, once again mainstream media mirrors the words of a prophecy, making over two dozen examples (thank you Margaret H), and now one brought FOUR years ago:

14.3 – Patsy Southway (10 May 2016): Month of May – The ‘Domino Effect’

13.22 – David Noakes (17 Nov 2015):The Fall of the EU (warning “Come Out”)

165.2 – Christopher Wickland (Nov 2019):The (3 year) Humbling of Gt Britain

1 o’clock News-blog: viral, virtual church crashes UK internet! – F/P #126.1

Here’s brilliant news on the latest example of fulfilled contemporary prophecy:

“There is going to be a church-planting movement that is virtual and viral in the earth; not taking the place of the Church at all.”  (Dr Sharon Stone, 7th November 2019)

Click image for link

3Counties Church in Hammer, Haslemere has been running Sunday morning services from three different homes via YouTube for several weeks. However, last Sunday, 17th May, we had to come offline because the young teacher’s audio and visual signals were so badly out of synchronisation the picture kept wobbling.

Obviously, there wasn’t enough bandwidth for a joined-up broadcast. And do I recall a prophecy from some 6 months ago about church going online with ‘virtual’ services and even becoming viral??

Therefore, it’s no surprise Premier Christian News reports ‘Looks like the church broke the internet’; Zoom crashes as thousands stream Sunday services

Here’s the full video message Dr Sharon Stone brought on “20 Kairos Words for 2020” where, at 52:22 minutes, she begins with the 19th word – Multiply: 

“Also, a word the Lord gave me about the ‘viral virtual church’…I think it’s going to get a lot of criticism in this next season but I think, with the billion souls harvest that has already begun, that it’s not going to be about ‘Do I have time to find another building? Do I have time to build a building?’…There is going to be a church-planting movement that is virtual and viral in the earth as well; not taking the place of the Church at all.”

The Time of Reckoning is here — Wanda Alger

Quote

This direct word of stern exhortation to believers on the Lord judging the Church is aimed mainly at our brethren in the USA; yet as one would expect, it complements those recently received of the in-depth ‘directive’ for the global Church and upon the ‘humbling’ of Britain.  Herein, we’re taken to task for not rising to perceive the Lord’s perspective, yet encouraged to keep His purposes paramount:

This word is not for the faint of heart. I rarely give words in first-person from the Lord, but this one flowed out of me during a recent time of prayer as if I was transcribing a dictation. Though this is a strong exhortation, I felt the Lord’s deep passion concerning our plight as well…

The Blessing videos fulfill ‘new sound of worship’ prophecies – PM Boris “filled with admiration”! (F/P #166)

Boris Johnson’s “big thank you” award letter to Tim Hughes, producer of online worship song The UK Blessing – which went viral in its first fortnight! – puts a critical article on a ‘prophecy’ website to shame.

In his personal Points of Light award, issued in recognition of outstanding voluntary service making a change in their community, the Prime Minister writes,

“At a time when our churches are closed, I am filled with admiration to hear how you have used the power of music to bring together Christians of all denominations from across our United Kingdom.

“Your sensational singing masterpiece ‘The UK Blessing’ is truly uplifting and has touched millions around the world with its message of hope and its beauty.

“As we continue to protect our NHS and save lives, I know you are also leading efforts through your own church to support those in need in Birmingham and to befriend those who are feeling lonely or isolated at this time.”

This is in the opposite vein to a hyper-critical author who presumes God does not approve of singing a blessing over our sinful, rebellious nation and that’s why He’s allowed churches to be shut! (In some of his rationale the author acts more as advocate for the Accuser, than for our Saviour!)  YET, we’ve had an unequivocal demonstration the Lord definitely DOES approve, as seen by His Spirit moving during this song to bless those who hear it!

Last night, Nina was hit by a double ‘strike’ of the Holy Spirit whilst hearing this song twice!  We’d been invited to watch The Surge, an online broadcast of leaders of the charismatic movement arising from the Toronto Outpouring – namely Catch The Fire and Partners In Harvest – in which they announced their merger under the leadership of Duncan and Kate Smith (originally from England).

After John and Carol Arnott’s ‘welcome’ this historic event began with its own rendition of The Blessing, opened by a pianist at CTF Bournemouth followed by singers across the global family of CTF-PIH churches. Upon my turning towards Nina whilst they sang, I saw her sizzling in her chair as she felt Holy Spirit surging up and down her.

After the 2-hour session we watched The UK Blessing and at the end Nina stood up to move as best she could with a leg in brace to go upstairs. However, YouTube autoplay went on to the song’s version done in South Africa and, with her feet firmly placed at the foot of the stairs, she found herself gently falling face-first into the carpeted stairwell as a black African sang “…And make His face to shine upon you”!!  WOWEEE!!!!

Then I was struck that this song of the Old Testament’s Aaronic blessing could fulfill a number of prophecies of recent years. The latest of these was issued just 3 weeks ago by Christie Johnson of Australia’s Gold Coast, as republished on this blog in Watch the Horizon, Here Come the Waves of Awakening, one element of which reads:

‘3. The Sound and the Wind – A New Sound of Worship

“I first heard an unusual sound that I wasn’t familiar with. I believe this is speaking of a new sound of worship that is going to precede the mighty outpouring. This worship is beginning to break forth, even now, all across the earth…” (emphases mine)

Moreover, the song’s verse that felled my wife speaks directly into the application of that prophetic vision and word:

Divine strategy for this new sound:  ‘To every son and daughter: this is a moment of setting yourself in a position to gaze upon the face of the Beloved….’!!

Need I say any more?

PS; the ‘triple-blast’ effect upon Nina has since brought a medically attested healing.

GPS #47.5 – ‘God-incidental’ confirmation from the Lord

Following a reader’s comment upon the Battleground Has Shifted by Abel Praise, I’ve been chatting with Abel on-and-off whilst drafting GPS #47.4.

We find we have a very similar appreciation of how the Lord is working in and aligning our personal lives. In my drafting I’d been looking for Revd Thomas Harry’s previous paper I’d blogged about and found it was FOUR years ago (ie 2016).

THEN I heard a ‘ping’ from another reply from Abel and was stunned upon reading his saying,

“I trust The LORD working out very significant things. Since 2016 I have kept significant chronicles of labors concerning Britain. The LORD had visited me with in dreams, visions, to contend for; and I noticed the intensity of prayer leads increased since last year and Britain has been very frequent on my prophetic radar. I have watched The LORD directing the march and we’re marching along. Beautiful things lay ahead…”

I immediately replied, “LOL LOL LOL >> I’ve just copied title and link from old post into the one I’m working on Confirmations of 2016’s Prophetic Words for a New Season 

And so I tell Abel ever so briefly what I’m drafting and he says,

“It is truly amazing. I have seen The LORD had granted you such significant wisdom for prophetic profiling and sequencing. It’s what it takes to decode the road map and I am amazed at the work you are accomplishing with this wisdom in Richards Watch. For those who see and understand the implementation of heavenly blueprints, it will be a great treasure…. Every bit of the puzzle is sacred.”

Now, in starting that previous post(102nd on GPS) I was nudged to check when I began blogging on this topic – it was 12.12.2016!  NO OTHER YEAR would do!!!

A Directive: Urgent Word for the Global Church (GPS #47.4)

There’s no such thing as ‘coincidence,’ especially for those walking-in-the-Spirit when we realise such events are ‘God-incidents’, as though the Lord is giving messages by His GPS, or ‘Global Prophecy Signalling’ system.  When we start putting it all together we can easily see that prophecies and insights are pieces of His invisible jigsaw puzzle that takes shape before us showing aspects and perspectives upon a HUGE Heavenly Blueprint – even a road-map, as Abel Praise found.

So here are the pieces for the 47th such instance, which is interesting number as 1947 was the year of Smith-Wigglesworth’s prophecy of a major move of the Holy Spirit in Britain, as well as being my birth-year. The picture on these 47th signals or pieces is of The Church:

  • GPS 47.1 – On 29th April Tony Puccio in Tucson, USA, blogs about a tornado turning churches upside-down. (I recalled picture possibly from Revd Thomas Harry’s paper; but where and when? Found at Confirmations of 2016’s Prophetici Words for a New Season.)
  • GPS 47.2 – On 30th April J.A.C. Laferriere in Ontario, Canada, replies to my request of the 29th with details of Geraldine Fisher’s prophecy on those ‘playing church’.
  • GPS 47.3 – that weekend was the middle of fortnight drafting this dual-post on Revd Christopher Wickland of Fareham, England‘s pre-death prophecy. (Delay arising from situation of Nina having fractured a knee-cap, so posted 7th May).
  • GPS 47.4 – 1st May is very significant for Thomas Harry, pastor of Falkirk Full Gospel Church in Scotland, as told in his article linked below.
  • GPS 47.5 – message today from Abel Praise in Nigeria, simultaneously connects into 2016 -WOW!  (The emerging piece in above illustration? See next post.)

A week ago today, Thursday 7th May, pastor Thomas emails me as follows:

‘Dear Richard – Greetings, hope you are doing well. Been a long time and it truly is an amazing time we are in.

‘The Lord gave me a word for the global church and I believe it is a major confirmation of some of the prophecies we have received. Felt to share with you as we truly are on verge of greatest awakening ever.

‘Would be great if you could raise awareness and share with others as I believe it is key for the church just now. I believe it would be a major blessing for your readers and help them prepare for this historic moment that we have all longed for.

Blessings, Thomas

He then provides the intro to URGENT WORD FOR THE GLOBAL CHURCH

‘Dear brothers and sisters in Christ,

‘I urge you to take the time to read this word which I believe to be one of the most urgent for the body of Christ in many years. We live in an unprecedented time where believer and unbelievers are trying to understand where we are and where we are going. This word has not been released lightly and is not simply another word or prophecy, but direction from the Lord that will help prepare us for the history changing moment right in front of us.

‘What is ahead is greater than the Reformation and will have a bigger impact than that. This will be a reformation of the world as we know it, not just a doctrine within Christianity. Most of the world believe this pandemic is the defining moment of 2020 and indeed recent history – it is not! It is about to fade into a low background noise and a mere footnote of history compared to what God is about to do. Our Almighty, Eternal God can never be triumphed over by a disease.

‘So I urge you to prepare and open your heart as we are on the precipice of one of the defining moments in history similar to Noah’s flood, Israel being delivered from Egypt and other historical milestones…’ (continue reading at link’s SECOND paragraph)

Immediately, I’m struck by Thomas referring specifically to the Lord as ‘Our Almighty, Eternal God’, which is how I addressed Him when enquiring about the origin of the pandemic, as told here.  And so I follow the link and, finding it’s a lengthy read, I print a hard-copy for reading at leisure over the weekend.

I CANNOT RECOMMEND HIGHLY ENOUGH YOUR PRINTING AND VERY CAREFULLY STUDYING AND WEIGHING THIS  URGENT WORD 

My hard-copy is covered in highlighter pen as so many points are personally poignant. I may share them soon.

AND I FIND THAT OUR ‘GPS’ WEEKEND FEATURES SIGNIFICANTLY!!  Although published on Z3News.com a week ago today, Thomas writes therein (underline mine),

‘..on 1st of May, I had the most unique spiritual experience of my life. I woke from sleep and felt something like a spiritual lightning go through my being. There was a momentary spiritual battle and then I suddenly knew and declared out loud: “The Greatest Outpouring and Harvest in history is about to happen”. It was the clearest God has ever spoken to me in my entire life…’

‘Direction’ from The Lord on:
  • Our Focus – Prepare For The Day Of His Power
  • World At A Standstill – God’s Greater Plan
  • Glory Arising on Believers – Example of John G Lake
  • Greatest Awakening The World Has Ever Seen
  • Why A Great Awakening Now?
  • Unprecedented Signs & Wonders
  • Be Bold or Miss Your Time Of Visitation – Where Were The 380?
  • Restoration Of The Fear Of God
  • Persecution Inside & Outside Church
  • Beware of Jealousy – Rise of Esthers, Josephs & Daniels
  • Tsunami of Prayer Leading to Tsunami of God’s Glory – No More Grey Areas
  • How Do We Prepare? – Focused Time With Jesus

Upon re-reading this early last Sunday morning I noticed Thomas’ reference to ‘We are going from outbreak to Out-Bread – where the experience of Jesus as the Bread of Life will multiply across the earth.’  Before we rise for the day we break bread and pray from Keep Praying & Bless – amazed to read Sunday’s decree: “I Am The Bread Of Life!”

THEREFORE, I GOT ‘GOD-INCIDENTAL’ CONFIRMATION OF THIS DOCUMENT!

May you be thoroughly blessed…

Word of Discernment: The battleground has shifted – Abel Praise

After having posted the transcript on Monday of Veronika West’s hearing from the Lord, “Get ready, get ready! For the stage is set, for a Spiritual Showdown is about to take place in this land!”, it is significant that the following two-part Facebook posting was published the next day by a Nigerian brother:

THE BATTLEGROUND HAS SHIFTED

THE BATTLEGROUND HAS SHIFTED I

The Enemy Thinks He Is Attacking The Church By Lengthening The Time To Halt Gatherings; The Church Thinks The Enemy Is Attacking Her By Trying To Stop Her From Gathering. The Kingdom Sees It’s At The Threshold Of A New Era; And Needs To Accomplish The Overhauling Of The Living Systems That Has Entrenched Perversion; And Will Accomplish This Through The Ignorance Of Religion and Perceived Wickedness of The Enemy. At The End Of All These, Those Who Hear The Voice, The Shepherd’s Voice, Would Have Hoisted The Flag Of The Kingdom For They Know That The Battle-Ground Has Shifted; And New Territories Are Being Contested In This Hour For The Next Phase of Kingdom Advance.

THE BATTLEGROUND HAS SHIFTED II – THE BATTLEGROUND OF THE ARMIES

The battleground has shifted; while in Egypt; they didn’t need boots, spears or weapons of war; they had amongst them ministers that spoke, taught, encouraged them in their assemblies to believe and have faith that the promises of their deliverance and a deliverer would come through; but when the battleground shifted; their ministers/ ministry shifted; they now needed to be kitted up for war; they had to; and had transitioned into The Battleground of The Armies. Armies are those equipped with the authority to pull down and rebuild territories. The Battleground of The Armies would equip them and get them to recover the authority, heritages and weapons of war because they were coming into a new phase; the tearing down of territories and their rebuilding of territories according to heavenly blueprints.

Those who didn’t understand that the battleground has shifted cried to return to the old normal; those who discerned the shift and walked forward into their new battleground like Joshua and Caleb believed for conquest.

We have been fed hope in the days of hope; but we must discern that the battleground has shifted; and are now in the battleground of The Armies – this we already see in the enemy attempting to wield authority to tear down state-structures and rebuild them into his way – but those who walk through this; discerning the shift and peeping into the wisdom of The LORD will be equipped in this critical hour for the tearing down of strongholds and rebuilding the cities of their inheritances measured out to them.

The Battleground has shifted – Out of The Battleground of The Armies; the authority to tear down and rebuild cities will be gained. Who will wield this authority in your city – The Righteous or The Perverse?

Background

Abel Praise writes at The War-Room Ministries: Kingdom Military Missions and I’m aware that Veronika values his insights and Biblical interpretations of prophecy. He provides the following details about this word on the battleground:

“The Origin Of The WORD:
It’s The WORD The LORD shared with me in time of fellowship; more so, it has been built up through series of things The LORD had shared with me over recent months to build a new understanding within. I usually see them as my teaching moments with The LORD; because it’s taken a number of dreams, visions, insights in time of fellowship; so I put out a great deal of understanding that several experiences had brought to create a perspective of the what’s ahead.

Veronika West’s post was a big boost and gave that A-HA moment; so it’s worth making reference to. I do not yet know if I will be allowed to put out all of the dreams, visions and all; but one critical experience I had in the midst of this season; and in all The LORD had shown concerning Covid19 moment; was an instruction in one of the dreams where The LORD said to me; “I had been given responsibility to prepare people concerning The Covid19 season the nations would walk through”; and that is the point from where The Posts concerning The Battleground shifting began to be released yesterday (Tues). I trust that with this; the perspective will be clear in your heart and the divine flow will be seen. Once again; I am humbled by the commitment to the work entrusted to you; and your reaching out to me.”

Five-fold prophecy on waves of awakening and opening wells…etc

Highly recommended by the pastor of the new Catch The Fire Church in Farnborough, this prophetic vision and word premiered on 24 April from Australia’s Nate & Christy Johnson confirms and enhances not only what Veronika West brought in February on reopening ancient wells, but also my 2004 vision of the Rock bursting through the rotten fabric of society and much earlier one on Shaking, as well as prophetical musing of the exposure of evil and corruption and fulfillments thereof (F/P #10). 

I want to share a vision I had a little while ago that I didn’t feel immediately released to share until now. It speaks of five specific events, two that we are already in the middle of, and three events that are to come. I also want to share some prayer strategies for you, so I encourage you to read to the end. Continue reading

Spiritual showdown, altars being rebuilt and wells reopened across Britain – Veronika West

Click image to run video

Section 8 of my paper The State of the Prophetic in the UK summarises the One Voice Prophecy Conference in Reading held 8th February 2020. The previous evening one of the guest speakers, Veronika West, told me she’d arrived without anything to share. So I was delighted upon my returning to the conference hall the next day, to hear her giving an unscheduled message on insights the Lord had given her overnight on what she’d sensed during her flight from Northern Ireland!! He alerted her to: “Get ready for the stage is set for a spiritual showdown!”

I was keen for this important message to be available and pleased when Geoffrey Pick posted his video of it on Prophetic Releasers for UK Revival (Facebook group). Last week he inserted a few points with regard to the covid-19 and Chris Moyler’s close transcript. I’m grateful for their kind permission to republish the full message. The 12-minute video of Veronika delivering this message may be watched on Fb by clicking either the following image or on Google via top of page picture (preferred):

VERONIKA WEST:

One Voice Prophecy Conference, Reading, 8th February 2020

The LORD said to me in a dream “How long, United Kingdom, are you going to falter between two opinions?” 

Elijah went before the people saying, “How long will you waver between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him. But if he is Baal, follow him.” (1Kings 18:21)

And we know what happened; there was a showdown. Elijah called for an altar to be built and filled its moat with water, and the prophets of Baal built an altar and they called upon their gods…Elijah began to mock them saying, “You’re going to have to call a little louder!”

(1:02mark) Then Elijah does something: He says one word and God sent his fire. And in this dream, I heard the Spirit of God say this (which is also a powerful proclamation):

“Get ready, get ready! For the stage is set, for a Spiritual Showdown is about to take place in this land! Watch! For now I am raising up a remnant that will Roar with a call for the rebuilding and the restoration of the broken-down Altars in this land.

(1:53) Listen! For a sound is beginning to arise from the ground of this prodigal nation. A sound of weeping and wailing will once again be heard, as the call to come to the altar returns to the land. Now, watch and pray and pay close attention, for a remnant mantled with the spirit of Elijah is rising in this land – one who will begin to roar, causing a Prodigal Nation to come back to its senses. A nation that was lost will turn, return and be reformed! Listen! Now is the time to repair and rebuild the torn-down altars in this nation.

(2:45) In the dream, I saw altars begin to be repaired and rebuilt in the nation. And I saw Scotland – I know that Emma and David Stark are here, and I don’t want to say this is for their ministry – but I saw an altar being rebuilt in Scotland. Then I saw an altar being rebuilt in Wales, and I saw an altar being rebuilt in Ireland, and I saw an altar being built in England. I saw altars being built all over this nation.

(3:18) But what was incredible is that as I saw the altars being repaired and rebuilt, I saw the Giants falling – I saw Giants falling! And, as the altars were being repaired and rebuilt, strongholds were being dismantled, demonic thrones were being overthrown. The I saw something incredible as I saw the altars being rebuilt – and I saw a weeping and wailing and saw many coming back to the altar. And the LORD said,

(4:02) “The words ‘altar call’ have not been upon the lips of My shepherds, but NOW I am restoring and I am putting back on the lips of My shepherds the words, “altar call.”

And as I heard the Lord say that I saw something amazing happen in the dream as I saw these altars being rebuilt. As they were being rebuilt I saw wells being uncapped and opened and I spoke with the Lord in my amazing dream (I speak to the LORD, to the Throne of Revelation in my dreams and I go back and forth), He said something – not strange, but the Lord said,

“Altars of awakening, wells of revival and restoration…It will take the apostolic grace to build the altars of awakening, and it will take the prophetic grace to uncap the wells of revival and restoration.”

(5:09) And then the dream shifted, and the LORD showed me a horse and an ox being yoked together in a field, and they looked uncomfortable. The horse had great strength, and he wanted to gallop; and the ox had his head lowered, ready to pull and to plough. The LORD said, and there was no sense that this yoking was oppressive,

(5:58) “I am yoking the apostolic and the prophetic, I am yoking them together in a new way in this next season.”

I saw that the prophetic horse wanted to run ahead, but the yoke prevented one going ahead of the other. The yoking enabled them to work together in humility, with their mantles of apostolic and prophetic grace, that God is releasing.

And the LORD had me prophesy as the altars were being built, that the wells would be uncapped and be open, and I saw the apostles building and rebuilding the altars, and the prophets were coming behind them, speaking to the wells of revival.

(7:05) I see altars being rebuilt across this nation, in north, south, east and west, and then I heard the Spirit say this about Reading,

“As the altars are being rebuilt across this nation, Reading shall become an altar, an altar where fires of revival shall fall. Reading will become a tower on a hillside that cannot and will not be hidden any longer. Reading will arise and shine when glory has come upon you. Watch, for all nations will be drawn to the brightness of your rising.”

Thank you, Jesus! And then  I heard the LORD say,

(8:03) “The Gates shall now become an altar, a place of fire, a place of revival… Even what is happening with the building, is highly significant and prophetic.” He said, “I am pulling down the old meeting place, because I am building a new altar in this place.”

(8:57) And as I was praying this morning for The Gates, as I was praying onto the ground of the Church, I saw angels very involved in dismantling different parts of the building. I had a sense that some of you here may be somewhat sentimental about the building, but the LORD wants you to know that HE is tearing it down! He is now repairing and rebuilding the altars.

(10:10) I encourage you, the leadership of the Gate. The LORD has chosen you because you have been faithful. Because you have been faithful in the little, I will make you faithful with much. And I saw the nations coming to the altar. I saw revival, I saw the outpouring, and I saw the fires fall. Thank you, Jesus!

(10:40) Prayer: “Father, we thank you for your word. We thank you for what you are doing in this nation at this time, in this season. We thank you LORD that you are releasing apostolic grace to rebuild the altars, and that you are releasing prophetic grace, and prophetic mantles to speak to the wells of revival and outpouring in this land.

(11:20) “So Father, we say, here we are! Thank you, Jesus for what you are doing in this land. You are bringing together the five-fold ministry, and you are bringing Reformation, Restoration and Transformation in this nation. You are not just rebuilding the altars, you are tearing down every demonic stronghold in this nation. You are overthrowing thrones of darkness that have been long established in this nation. We humble ourselves as apostles, prophets and shepherds, teachers and evangelists, and we come together LORD as one to turn the key, to see you do a great and an awesome thing in this land.”

[Veronika West 8.2.2020]

AMEN and again AMEN

  • [RB-Feb] GOOD TO HEAR ANSWER to my frequent asking and urging the Lord to do something direct about the demonic rebellion in our lands and to make Himself powerfully and obviously known to everyone for Veronika reports the Lord as telling her “GET READY, GET READY FOR THE STAGE IS SE T FOR A SPIRITUAL SHOWDOWN”!!
  • [GP-May] ‘Just before COVID-19 became an issue – first record of UK transmission was just 20 days later 28th Feb 2020.

IT’S TIME TO REBUILD THE ALTARS OF AWAKENING…I believe the Apostolic and Prophetic MUST BECOME BETTER ALIGNED in the days ahead IT’S CRITICAL FOR REVIVAL IN OUR NATION. I believe this Spiritual showdown has begun in our Nation and we must CHOOSE WHOM WE WILL SERVE. I PROPHESY AS THE ALTARS OF AWAKENING ARE REBUILT  THE WELLS OF REVIVAL WILL BREAK OPEN. IT’S TIME!!’

  • [RB-Feb] Veronika’s prophesying about Reading being on a spiritual hill and of the Lord’s fire coming down confirms impression I’d brought at the conference’s planning meeting in November. It reminded me of a previous vision of decades ago in which I’d ‘seen’ an imploding (!) ‘atomic bomb’ with fireball rolling down Tilehurst hill and along the Thames Valley towards the capital, as told in June’s 2nd of four jigsaw pieces!
  • [RB-today] Listening and checking CM’s hard work of transcribing, Veronika’s speaking in detail on angels rebuilding The Gate, reminds me of an exceptionally powerful dream in September 2011 of seeing the Kingdom being set up by angelic teams. This ‘coincided’ with a prophetic word Bill Johnson brought about that date later being appreciated as of significance for the kingdom in Britain (as told in Father, Your Kingdom Come!).

Prophecy of great humbling, then spiritual revival in Great Britain (GPS #47.3 cont’d – F/P #165.1)

A great thank you to Carolyn Stewart for transcribing this vital message (previous post refers). Note it was received last November at a time of unprecedented political upheaval in Parliament and speaks directly into this year’s unprecedented economic situation arising from global covid-19 pandemic. And yesterday came news of Britain’s humiliation internationally, as well as scientifically. Hence inclusion of this prophecy in the catalogue of fulfilled prophecies or those coming to pass (Footnotes refer).

“I just want to share this prophetic word. I was looking through my phone and I found this. (The current date is..we are in April 2020). And as I was looking through my phone of prophecies I found this one called ‘The Humbling of Great Britain’, which I’d never put out before. I completely forgot about it. So I think in the light of what’s going on at the moment, it is very relevant. It is a warning, but it is also an encouragement of what God is doing in our land. I thought I should release this now.

“As I said, this was given in November 2019. This was just before I died as well, so it is quite a significant prophecy. And as I said, I’d forgotten all about it. I just found it on my phone, but I feel it’s important to release it, so I’ll leave it with you. Please listen, please enjoy, please be blessed, and please spread it around as well.

THE HUMBLING OF GREAT BRITAIN (November 2019)

“I will have the people in this land in derision”, says the Lord. “I will pour out my Spirit on this land, and those people that have called to come together to conspire, to tear down My ways and My precepts and My ordinances from this land – this green and pleasant land. Mark My words: I will have them in derision. I am in the heavens and I laugh at their futility, at the things that they’re attempting to do, to close Me off and shut Me off from My own creation and so close down and shut down My people. For that is their ultimate aim. They want Me and every trace of Me eradicated from the land and from education and from every part of this society.

But mark My words; I have plans to prosper this country, and I will bring to shame the wise. I will shame those who have so loftily held their head up – their stiff-necked heads that have said, ‘We will bring our ways! We will bring in our precepts and ordinances in this land, and we will eradicate God, and we will take Him off his throne. And we shall destroy His church.  But not so!

“Sadly, My own Church has failed to see how impoverished and how weakened she has become. She is literally now a remnant in this country. Yet I will do great things with a remnant. Yet when it was I can take three hundred foot-soldiers with Gideon and I can do a great deliverance, and I will do the same also in this land. I will take this small remnant of a Church that is left – those Christians that genuinely acknowledge Me as their Lord and Saviour – and will not bow the knee to Baal and to all his false practices and customs in respect to the laws that are now passing in this land.

Mark My words, punishment will come for the sins that have covered this land. But the punishment, as I always punished Israel in times past, was so that it may bring them to repentance and may bring healing to their land; that when the people are humbled they would pray to me and I would turn in My mercy, I would forgive them their sins and I would then heal their land. I am going to bring punishment to this nation – a time of humbling – but this punishment is not to destroy this nation. This punishment is to humble her and to chastise her, that she may repent of her wicked ways and turn back to Me.

“There will not be many nations in the days ahead that will be permitted to have what this nation will be permitted. You will have a grace and a favour upon you which many other nations will not be given because I have plans and purposes for this country. And even though My own people have been faithless harlots towards Me, know this; that your faithlessness will only go to prove My faithfulness. I will be faithful to My Covenant and to My Word, and I will bring about My ways and My means for this country, and I will pour out My Spirit. And I will bring Revival, but it will not be like any revival that has been before. It will be uncontainable; it will be uncontrollable; and the world will HATE it because it will be so strong and it will be so powerful that they cannot ignore it.

“In times past they’ve been able to turn a blind eye to the things of My Spirit, but in these days everyone will know about it, everybody will know about it. And the same sun that melts the ice also hardens the clay, and men will just drop into two distinct camps: those that love Me and those that absolutely hate Me. This is why in many respects these days are dangerous days, because it will polarize people, in ways stronger than they are now; but you will know the righteous and you will know the evil.

But mark My words, I will do something wonderful with this country; I will restore law and order to this country. This country has become lawless and it has no more order to it. And your Houses of Parliament are an example of the state of your nation, of the division of your nation, of the complexities of your nation. The wickedness and the hardness of heart and the blindness and arrogance of your nation are all set to display, for all the world to see in your own Houses of Parliament. But I am going to do a new thing. And many men will lay down their crowns and place down their swords before Me and repent and give their lives to me. And many powerful men and women who vehemently hate My name, will come to know Me and love My name.

“And some Christians might go, ‘Why, why Lord did you save them? They’re the ones who brought such depravity to our nation. Why did you allow it?’  Because that’s My grace, that’s My mercy, and the very ones that brought in those laws, I will turn into trophies of grace to make the enemy despised in his own camp, for I will make those who passed those wicked laws be the ones that undo them, for they will reveal the secrets and the dark intent and heart of sinful wicked flesh. And the world or this country at least, will look on in horror at the things that they’ve released and allowed in this country, and they will be rescinded and retracted.

“My people, you need to do this: you need to be spending these hours – because it is only hours – you need to be spending these hours in prayer; you need to be spending these hours on your knees; you need to be spending this time in the Word, learning from Me, learning from My Spirit and I will teach you many wonderful things. But this is the time, because there are many bridesmaids out there that do not have enough oil in their lamp and you need to get it in your lamp. No-one can part-exchange their life of intimacy with Me to those that have no intimacy with Me. This is your chance; now is the time to do it, for in the humbling that’s coming – this wind of change that’s going to blow through this land – it’s going to be a difficult time for this nation. It will not be a long time, but the depth of the punishment that will come will be severe, even though it will only be for a short time. It was like when I said to King David, “You can have three years of this, three months of that, or three days of the other”.

“This will be a short punishment but it will be a deep punishment; a deep chastisement to this nation. And I will humble this nation and I will turn her around. And many who are your enemies in these days will become your friends and neighbours in the days to come.

“So be prepared, be encouraged but be warned; this is not going to be an easy day that is coming, it is going to be a difficult day, a difficult time for this nation. Many Christians will cry out, ‘Why did I allow such things to come to this nation?’ But in part, everyone in this nation is responsible for the punishments that are coming.

“There is much worldliness in My Body, much worldliness in My Church, much worldliness in the mindset of Christians, much worldliness in the teachings of the Church! And the teachings of the Church have lost their anchor. They have apostasised; they have become an apostate church, in that they’ve drifted away from the truth of scripture and have chosen to allow the doctrines of men to infiltrate the teachings of the Church. The sacred scriptures should never be changed, never diluted, never touched, never altered, for they sacred and they are from the throne room of heaven itself. How dare man place his DNA and his ideas over that which is heavenly and beyond?

“So take heart to these words and this warning. Be blessed, be encouraged and get ready, for the time is now when the humbling must begin. And it will be short but long. It will be a short period of time but it will feel like the longest period of time, for it will be very intense. And for a period of three years a time of great humbling will come upon this nation, and it will be a heavy three years, a very difficult three years.

“But then things will change, things will turn, and you will go from Winter to Spring, Spring to Summer, Summer into Harvest time.”

    ‘If No 10’s response to coronavirus was really based on “following the science”, of course, these new details about Prof Ferguson’s view might be a game-changer, prompting, at the very least, Downing Street discussions of how to rapidly loosen the rules for those who have had the virus. Like with all good farces, though, the most absurd is yet to come. Incredibly, Downing Street shows little sign of learning from the Ferguson Chapter. And, astonishingly, once again, “the science” is being compromised by political hysteria – a scandal that continues to be barely scrutinised.

    ‘But before we get to the meat, let us briefly chew over the cautionary tale that can be cleaved from the career of Prof Ferguson. He has a track record of making wildly inaccurate projections, for example that BSE would kill 150,000 people (the real figure was fewer than 200)…’

Those playing Church are to be taken away (GPS #47.2 – F/P #121.11)

As mentioned in the 47th example of Global Prophecy Signals of ‘Tucson’ Tony’s dream of a holy whirlwind turning churches upside-down, another over the ‘Pond’ contributor but in Ottawa, JAC Laferriere, referred me to his researches and finding a pandemic-related prophecy, which is now republished in full – courtesy of His Kingdom Prophecy.

This includes a reference similar to Matthew 24:7, as at the close of the previous post on ‘pestilence’, but its main matter features again in the next posting I’m working on (GPS #47.3):

THOSE PLAYING CHURCH ARE TO BE TAKEN AWAY

‘The LORD has spoken to me and He is going to allow those playing Church to be taken away with the unrighteous!

‘Famine, pestilence and disease are coming and we are going to need Jesus, folks!

‘It is time to stop playing Church and taking advantage of God’s Grace as many of us have!

‘We are in Church today — and tomorrow we are living like the devil’s child!

‘The hands and the mercy of God has been gracious to His People, as well as the Nation, but it is time to get our act together!

‘This is what The LORD spoke to me regarding His People and those who failed to repent after being warned, over and over again!

“And The LORD said to him, (the man with the ink bottle was an angelic being probably an angel) “Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations that are committed in the midst of it.”  (Those who wept/ interceded and prayed)

“And to the others He said in my hearing, “Follow [the man with the ink bottle] through the city and smite; let not your eye spare, neither have any pity.”

“Slay outright the elderly, the young man and the virgin, the infant and the women; but do not touch or go near anyone on whom is the mark.  Begin at My sanctuary.  So they began with the old men who were in front of the temple,”  [who did not have The LORD’s mark on their foreheads]. [1 Peter 4:17]

“And He said to [the executioners], Defile the temple and fill its courts with the slain.  Go forth!  And they went forth and slew in the city.

“And while they were slaying them and I was left, I fell upon my face and cried, Ah, Lord God!  Will You destroy all that is left of Israel in Your pouring out of Your wrath and indignation upon Jerusalem?

“Then said He to me, The iniquity and guilt of the house of Israel and Judah are exceedingly great; the land is full of blood and the city full of injustice and perverseness; for they say, The LORD has forsaken the land; The LORD does not see [what we are doing].

“And as for Me, My eye will not spare, neither will I have pity, but I will recompense their wicked doings upon their own heads.

“And behold, the man clothed in linen, who had the ink bottle at his side, reported the matter, saying, I have done as You have commanded me.”  (Ezekiel 9: 4-11)

Geraldine Fisher, 28th August 2019

Is this global pandemic from God’s hand? (#121.10-1 cont’d)

Before we look at the actual scriptures referred to in the previous part about the current contagion being “man-made”, especially relating to the ‘Mark of the Beast’, it’s useful to present those that are my foundation for following Jesus Christ as the Lord of my life:

Foundational Discipleship
“If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him. He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father’s who sent Me. These things I have spoken to you while being present with you. But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. (John 14:23-26 NKJV)
“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.” (John 17:20-23 NKJV)
“Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.” (John 3:5-8 NKJV)

Discipleship re. Prophecy/Deliverance

Having practised deliverance ministry and prophecy, I’m of the opinion that ALL Matthew chapter 7 is applicable to the latter; especially verses 1-2 on judging others, 15-23 on true and false prophets and entry to heaven, 24-27 on building upon the Rock.

Moreover, I’m well aware of the judgements the Lord brought upon His chosen people for not only straying from His ordinances, given as they are for their well-being and protection, but also for rebelling against Him by turning to worship false gods. [Paper collated by Joel Rosenberg, What does the Bible teach about pestilence, plagues & global pandemics? refers.]

Here’s a tidy-up from my jottings, ‘End of March (in lock-down for UK) Thoughts’ :

IS GLOBAL PANDEMIC FROM GOD’S HAND?

The Almighty or ‘El Shaddai, ‘ according to rabbinical tradition, means ‘God of utter ruin and destruction Who can do anything’.

Rev 13:7…’no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.’

Instructions for avoiding virus-contaminated surfaces when shopping state it is best to use cashless-payment, instead of handling cash or touching card machines: ie, wave a hand instead of part with cash or tapping buttons!
Therefore, if this pandemic is from the hand of God, it means He is in cahoots with satan and enabling its strategy to introduce a cashless society described in Rev 13:7..!!!

1 Peter 4:17For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?

Matt 13:24-30 He said to them, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The servants said to him, ‘Do you want us then to go and gather them up?’ But he said, ‘No, lest while you gather up the tares you also uproot the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest, and at the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, First gather together the tares and bind them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn.” ’ ”

Rev 2-3…Jesus’ letters to the 7 churches warns sinners therein of the need to repent, or else face judgement and extraction as well as the removal of His lampstand therefrom.

ALL three passages clearly imply unrepentant sinners and apostates within churches will be judged first, before other believers and the as-yet-unsaved general public.

WHY have the blatantly apostate leaders of churches who permit same-sex marriage and twisting of scriptures not died from this pandemic? If it’s time for these passages to be put into effect then the Church should be judged and leaders repent and turn, or die.

Amos 3:7… Surely the Lord God does nothing, unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.

I was unaware of any prophets hearing specifically about a global pandemic before it started in China. (I’d noted Veronika West’s of April 2019 about plague in USA.) Therefore, I took note of Dr Sharon Stone’s explanation of what she heard upon seeking the Lord on this matter in early March, “This plague is before its time and it is illegal.”

Sid Roth’s Coronavirus and the End-times on 19th March featured Emma Stark and Tracy Cooke, which drew discussion at Prophetic Releasers for UK Revival. However, it was too long for me to spare the time but I noticed it began with Tracy talking about a dream of being in the Wuhan lab and seeing US politicians. As blogged a couple of weeks later in Visions of Spiritual ‘Atomic Bomb’, I returned to the video because Emma’s contribution had been recommended by a pastor to whom her vision applied.

I wasn’t, therefore, persuaded by unsubstantiated claims of the virus being engineered at a laboratory, but was open to the possibility. This is why I did not exclude it from all the various scenarios I put to The Almighty on 23rd March, as told in the previous post. Hence my surprise at hearing the Lord’s immediate response to my asking if the pandemic is from Him – “No, it is man-made.”

There’s another connotation to ‘man-made’ other than engineered: it can be a consequence of our unrepented, sinful activities because they give satan legal rights of access to interfere with our lives. We thus move ourselves from under the Lord’s blood covering and protection.
Maybe Jesus was mindful of that state-of-play when saying:

Matt 24:4-8 (‘The Signs of the Times and End of the Age’) Jesus..said to them: Take heed that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many. 6 And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for [a]all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be famines, [b]pestilences, and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.”

This passage states what natural and human activities/events will happen in the future, but there’s no indication that they’ll come direct from the hand of God.

Yet, the time must come when He will, of necessity, humble humanity to its knees in repentance before His holy glory.

Matthew 24:6-8 in Greek (Scripture4all: click image for link)
