2018: the year of the Great and Mighty S-H-I-F-T – Veronika West

With acknowledgement to UK Prophetic Words for this from Veronika West, wherein she moves into bold prophetic decrees:

I prophesy,

2018 WILL BE KNOWN AS THE YEAR WHERE ‘EVERYTHING SHIFTED AND CHANGED’!

• S – SUDDENLY AND SEVERELY, A GREAT SEPARATION (will manifest both Spiritually and Physically in the earth)
• H – HEALING, HOPE RESTORED AND A GREAT HARVEST
• I – INFILLING, INSIGHT AND ILLUMINATION FOR GREATER KINGDOM INFLUENCE AND IMPACT
• F – FIRES AND FAMILIES
• T – TRIALS, TRIBULATIONS, AND EVEN GREATER TRIUMPHS AND DIVINE TURNAROUNDS

This is what I heard the Spirit of God say as I began to pray and intercede for the New Year ahead 2018, “Daughter, tell My People to Watch! To Stay Vigilant and to Be Ready, for the Year ahead will be known as the Year where SUDDENLY EVERYTHING SHIFTED AND CHANGED”!

As I heard those words, I was caught up in a powerful vision where I saw the finger of God write the word “SHIFT” in gold over the Nations of the earth, then I heard these words in the spirit realm: “WATCH! FOR 2018 WILL THE YEAR WHERE THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH WILL BE SHIFTED AND CHANGED, WATCH!

“For My Hand Of Justice and Judgement will move ‘SUDDENLY and SEVERELY’ in the Nations of the earth, and the Earth will quake and shake, and the mountains will erupt, and the waters of the seas will rise and flow forth upon dry ground.

“For a great SEPARATION will now begin to manifest upon the land and in the air,” says the Spirit of God.

“WATCH! For 2018 will be a Year of HEALING, RESTORED HOPE AND A GREAT HARVEST. For My Spirit will move to HEAL the Sick and the dying and to RESTORE HOPE in the hearts of those who are lost and walking in darkness.

“And the Winds of My Spirit will blow upon the threshing floors to sift the Nations of the Earth, for the Goats and the Sheep will be scattered from among you.

“WATCH! For My Sons and Daughters will receive even greater INFILLING, INSIGHT AND ILLUMINATION of My hidden Mysteries, THAT WILL IMPACT’ every sphere of INFLUENCE in the Nations of the Earth.

“Watch! For 2018 will be a Year where My Hand of Divine Retribution will move to expose and overthrow every throne of wickedness in the Governments of the earth; for a divine realignment will begin to take place in the Nations of the Earth.

“WATCH! For In 2018 My Glory will be made manifest through FIRES AND through FAMILIES, For My heart will be turned towards the ‘FATHERS’ in this season. Have I not said, I will cause the hearts of the Fathers to be turned back towards their children and the hearts of the children back towards their Fathers?”

“WATCH My Beloved, for 2018 will be a Year of great TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS in the Earth but FEAR NOT! For greater will be the TRIUMPHS AND DIVINE TURNAROUNDS’ that will be made manifest in the midst of those who WILL PUT THEIR TRUST IN ME!”

The Father has given me more concerning the Year 2018 which I will share in the days ahead.

GET READY FOR A GREAT AND MIGHTY S-H-I-F-T WILL TAKE PLACE IN THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH; I BELIEVE WE ARE ALREADY BEGINNING TO SEE THIS TAKE PLACE….!

Decree S-H-I-F-T for the Year ahead 2018; DECREE:

  • I WILL SEE THE HAND OF GOD MOVING SUDDENLY AND SEVERELY IN THE EARTH, FOR HIS GLORY HE IS BRINGING ABOUT A GREAT SEPARATION IN THE NATIONS.
  • I POSITION MYSELF TO RECEIVE DIVINE HEALING, HOPE AND DIVINE RESTORATION TO EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE
  • I THANK AND PRAISE GOD IN ADVANCE FOR A GREAT MANIFESTATION OF THE HARVEST THAT IS COMING TO MY FAMILY, COMMUNITY AND NATION.
  • BY FAITH I RECEIVE A FRESH INFILLING OF HIS SPIRIT; I ALIGN MYSELF FOR GREATER INSIGHT AND ILLUMINATION OF THE HIDDEN MYSTERIES OF HEAVEN FOR GREATER KINGDOM INFLUENCE AND IMPACT.
  • I DECLARE THAT THE FIRES OF HIS GLORY WILL REIGNITE, REVIVE AND REAWAKEN MY HEART TO THE SPIRIT OF POWER, MIGHT, WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE, UNDERSTANDING, COUNSEL AND THE FEAR OF THE LORD.
  • I DECREE THE HEARTS OF THE FATHERS AND THE CHILDREN IN MY FAMILY WILL RETURN TO ONE ANOTHER AND BOTH WILL BE FULLY RESTORED AND HEALED IN JESUS NAME.
  • I WILL NOT FEAR THE TRIALS AND TRIBULATIONS THAT COME BUT I WILL HOLD FAST TO THE TRUTH THAT HE HAS ALREADY WON THE BATTLE FOR ME AND I WILL SEE A MIGHTY MANIFESTATION OF EVEN GREATER TRIUMPHS AND DIVINE TURNAROUNDS IN EVERY AREA OF MY LIFE.
  • I PROPHESY 2018 WILL BE A YEAR WHERE EVERYTHING WILL ‘S H I F T AND CHANGE’ TO THE GLORY OF GOD.

Prophetic Scripture Update #5 cont’d: Rosenberg on Putin summit with Iranian & Turkish leaders to strengthen anti-Western alliance…Trouble for Israel.

(Jerusalem, Israel) — After several years of darkness falling on the Middle East, we’re actually seeing quite a bit of good news in recent months. The U.S.-led coalition of Sunni Arab countries is systematically crushing the Islamic State. The Caliphate has been dismantled. ISIS jihadists are still a threat, but they’re being driven out of […]

Prophetic Scripture Update #5: Gog-Magog coalition solidifies, Assad’s secret visit to Russia

THE HOLY BIBLE CONTINUES TO DISPLAY ITS RELEVANCE TO TODAY’S NEWS

As I read yesterday’s (Wednesday 22nd November) Telegraph report it kept speaking to me of chapter 38 in the Book of Ezekiel. That’s where the Lord told that Old Testament prophet about a future international alliance that would come against His people.

As outlined in Update #2, Ezekiel 38 and 39 describe an alliance known as ‘the Gog and Magog’ coalition that will eventually invade the land the Holy One of Israel gave to His people. Most Bible scholars regard the various people named as forming that group  as coming from the land between and north of the Black and Caspian Seas. ie modern Russia.

The prophet received a word from the Lord to ‘set his face’ against Gog, a leader of those nations north of Israel and which include Persia/Iran. And in coming into battle he and those nations would be used for God’s own purpose for this almighty battle:

“So I will make My holy name known in the midst of My people Israel. I will not let them profane My name anymore – Then the nations shall know that I am the LORD, the Holy One in Israel.” (Ezekiel 38:7 NKJV)

Let’s check the pertinent points of Middle East correspondent Raf Sanchez report, emphases mine.  His opening gives the game away!!

‘Syria’s Bashar al-Assad has thanked Vladimir Putin and the Russian military for helping to save his country as the Russian president prepared to host the leaders of Iran and Turkey for high-level talks on ending the war in Syria. Mr Assad made a secret visit to Socchi (Black Sea resort) on Monday…(where he) met Mr Putin for 3 hours to discuss a potential political settlement for Syria’s future…

‘Mr Putin ordered Russian forces to intervene in Syria on Mr Assad’s behalf in late 2015…(and) with their Iranian allies have swung the tide of war decisively in Mr Assad’s favour.

‘The Kremlin said the two men had worked to “prepare the groundwork for possible understandings” that might be reached during today’s (22nd) summit between Mr Putin, Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani and President Tayyip Erdogan of Turkey.

‘ Iran and Russia supported the Assad regime throughout the war whilst Turkey has backed the opposition. The three countries have acted as guarantors of local deals in Syria and Mr Putin hopes they will be able to agree on a comprehensive pact to end the fighting.

Mr Putin has placed himself centre-stage in talks over Syria’s future. As well as hosting the Turkish and Iranian leaders, he spoke to Donald Trump by phone…briefing him on the talks with Mr Assad.

‘The Geneva talks (with Syrian opposition) have collapsed several times…observers agree it’s more likely major decisions will be made by Russia, Iran and Turkey.’

SO, WHO’s IN CHARGE? Clearly the Russian leader is! Although often disagreeing with each other, the leaders of Iran and Turkey kowtow to him.

The above Reuters’ photo of Assad and Putin speaks volumes to those who read body language.

MEANWHILE ON ISRAELI-SYRIAN BORDER

Previous posts on Gog/Magog referred to the Iranian strategy of getting a strong swathe of influence westwards from the Persian Gulf to the Mediterranean by means of proxy-terrorist, regular military and diplomatic activities. In view of their declared ambition of attacking and capturing Jerusalem, Iran’s military presence in the Golan and within 10 miles of Israel is totally unacceptable to the Israeli government.

Several bulletin point headlines in Middle-East Update #2 highlight those deep issues. Note the reference to a special ‘eschatological’ brigade in the Golan. One whose aim is undoubtedly to prepare the ground for the Shiite Mahdi to appear (with Jesus in tow!) – obviously a blasphemous counterfeit of Christian theology. (Read more on this in third section of Iran and the Nuclear ‘Fix’.)

Moreover, Monday’s long telephone conversation between Putin and PM Netanyahu ended up with them at odds over removing Iran/Hizballah from the Golan border (Debka). It would appear Donald Trump has quietly withdrawn the US from involvement on this front. Having close Christian input, details of the Ezekiel 38 Gog-Magog prophecy will have been brought to his attention.

Exposure of sin, darkness and corruption as sign of God’s coming glory (Fulfilled Prophecy #10 cont’d)

One of many important words being received in these times, this from UK Prophetic Words reminds me of my musing last year about the increasing exposure of corruption and its connection to the foretold great shaking of everything (Hebrews 12:25-29):

SIN, DARKNESS AND CORRUPTION BEING EXPOSED IS THE SIGN OF THE COMING WAVE OF GOD’S GLORY

Two weeks ago I awoke in the morning with a clear picture in my mind. I was standing on the shore of one of our beautiful Pembrokeshire bays looking out to sea when suddenly the water in front of me began to recede rapidly and very quickly the whole sea in front of me out to the horizon was empty of water. I could see the whole of the bottom of the sea covered with rocks and other features which had been completely hidden.

I knew immediately that this was an indication of a coming tsunami wave and then the Lord began to speak to me:

“These days are like the time before a tsunami. The waters are drawing back, the seas are retreating and all the earth is being exposed. Sin, darkness, corruption and iniquity are being exposed as I draw back the waters that cover the earth. You will see an increasing exposure of all that has been hidden since the beginning of time. But it is the sign of the coming wave of my glory.

“I will sweep over the earth with the living waters of my Spirit and so shall my glory cover the earth even as the waters now cover it. It shall be as in the days of Noah but this time the flood shall be a flood of my light and truth and it shall sweep away the works of the enemy and I shall recover and restore that which belongs to me.

“Then shall the end come; then shall my Son return; then shall every knee bow before him; then shall I gather together all things in him and bring forth new heavens and a new earth in which my righteousness dwells. 

“Therefore, do not despair and do not be cast down but lift up your heads, lift up your eyes and see that which I am doing, for your redemption draws near. I do not wait until the last moment to help my people as some of you think. My timing is perfect, established from before time existed. What and when I move is according to my perfect will and purposes.

“Change your thinking about me and my ways. I do whatever I please for the sake of my Name. I am not the God of the last moment; I am the God of the present and perfect moment. Draw near to me and live with me in the present moment every day. This is your inheritance that has been purchased for you and freely given to you. This is your rightful place of rest that will keep you from fear and anxiety when you look at the situations around you, when you see evil everywhere and hear of wars and rumours of wars. Draw near to me and live in my peace,” says your God.

PS July’19: Fulfilled Prophecies lists (#10) several exposures (of many) noted on this blog.

A prince moves us towards the Second Signpost

mohammed-bin-salman-afp-bigWith the background from updates here, here and here following Sept 2015’s ‘Act of God’ lightning strike on Mecca’s Grand Mosque, and especially in view of Iran being the main actor of the Ezekiel 38 Gog-Magog alliance, we consider how events fit into Daniel’s prophecies…

Mark Davidson's avatarTHE FOUR SIGNPOSTS

In January 2016 a high-ranking Shia cleric was executed, and an embassy was burned down in retribution.

In November 2017 a missile is launched from Yemen towards Riyadh, the Saudi capital. The Lebanese Prime Minister, a Sunni Muslim, finds safety in Arabia and resigns his post.

While these might be cause for concern with many, we who are familiar with the Four Signposts know the big event to watch out for. We do not know how it will begin. It could have started over any of these events, or an event like it in the future. But that is the nature of the enmity between Sunni and Shia, one of constant agitation. We will continue to see sabre rattling and tough talk and events that make it seem the Second Signpost War could break out at any time.

Remember Iran launching its own rocket into the ISIS area? Over…

Part three brings the very latest news before we look at its direct relevance to the ‘Four Signposts’ interpretation of Bible prophecy.

Middle-East update #1 – events around last Thursday’s post

This is first of three overviews of events in the Middle-East before leading into a consideration of how they relate to the ‘Four Signposts’ approach to Bible prophecy. We will look more closely at Jordan and dip into reports on Saudi Arabian involvement in the Israel-Palestine peace process and with Iran.

Events continue to accelerate at breathtaking speed and I will present a mix of comments and bullet-point headlines for ease of reading. Links are shown for those wishing to read in more depth and consult the source material.

NCIS fans will recall Gibb’s Rule #39: ‘There’s no such thing as a coincidence!’ – or, as in my reply to a reader’s recent comment, “Coincidences are ‘spooky’ action in time” (a play upon Einstein’s reaction to quantum physics’ hypothesis of ‘entanglement’, ie. non-local correlative ‘communication’ between photons of light and sub-atomic particles).

A BRIEF RECAP

Apart from the ‘God-incidence’ of two delegates who’d heard the same teaching, writing on the same day on the same topic – the need for ‘air supremacy’ when prophesying –  this time last week I submitted a very brief outline of major developments in the Middle-East since September 2015. It included reports of visits of a delegation of Christians to meet the leaders of Egypt and Jordan, as well as a UK prophet’s bringing the Lord’s words to diplomats at the UN in Geneva, including Donald Trump’s personal envoys.

For readers who’ve not yet read Paws 4 Thought, my premise follows the ‘coincidental’ similarity 14 years to the day between the infamous 9/11 attack upon the twin towers in New York and a severe lightning strike upon a crane, causing it to crash onto Mecca’s  Grand Mosque and thereby killing over 100 people.

A ‘coincidental connection’ between those tragedies in New York and Mecca is the Bin Ladin family by virtue of their Binladin construction group owning that crane and of their  notorious son Osama having been the leader of Al Qaeda.

JORDAN ON-THE-GROUND

I wondered if Joel Rosenberg’s report of visiting Jordan accurately paints the picture in view of strong discrimination against those who become  Christians (secret police watch ex-Muslims). I’m grateful to friends who’ve been there allowing me to share their response to my blog of his news:

‘Thank you for this. It is of course wonderful to have any connection with the head of a Moslem country; nevertheless I wonder whether Joel Rosenberg knows the following:-
Christians can’t go to the camp that the delegation visited, since the men are beaten up and the women raped; they therefore have to sleep on church floors, pavements, or if lucky in a run-down room with no heating. They are cared for by local churches.
Syrian refugees are paid 250 Jordanian Dinars a month in perpetuity by UNHCR (about £150), whereas Syrian Christian refugees receive 10 dinars a month per family member AND only for six months! Iraqis, whether Christian or not receive nothing, and are moreover not allowed to work in Jordan. There is evidence that Moslem admin. officials report Christian refugees to the secret police. Those really in danger of course are those who convert from Islam, and we were moved by all those who came to our conference at some danger to themselves.’

Their eye-opening account was gained first-hand serving with Flame International in its missions to victims of wars – read also its encouraging Report from the Jordan Mission October 2017.

WASHINGTON ROUND-UP

From his desk as an accredited correspondent in the White House, William Koenig gives an exceptionally extensive round-up of the week’s Middle-Eastern news in his ‘Eye-View’ of last Friday (also see World Watch Daily). In Bill’s words it was ‘another breathtaking prophetic week in the Middle-East’.:

‘INSIDE THE WHITE HOUSE’
  • ‘President Donald Trump, his son-in-law Jared Kushner, Saudi Crown Prince Mahmoud bin Salman and Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri were the talk of the Middle East the past week.
  • Crown Prince Mahmoud rounded up Saudi princes and businessmen and imposed travel curbs in his fight over corruption.
  • Saad Hariri resigned from his position over fear of assassination by Hezbollah and gave a scathing speech about Iran and Hezbollah.
  • Iran’s foreign minister blamed Jared Kushner for the Salman and Hariri activities.

POLITICO wrote, “President Donald Trump’s son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner returned home Saturday, Oct. 29 from an unannounced visit to Saudi Arabia — his third trip to the country this year…

David Ignatius, a long time Washington Post reporter and Saudi expert, pointed to Donald Trump’s and Jared Kushner’s alleged influence in his article, The Saudi crown prince just made a very risky power play…

“MBS [Crown Prince Salman] is emboldened by strong support from President Trump and his inner circle, who see him as a kindred disrupter of the status quo — at once a wealthy tycoon and a populist insurgent. It was probably no accident that last month, Jared Kushner, Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law, made a personal visit to Riyadh. …MBS would probably be flattered to be described as a Saudi Trump. But Xi and his anti-corruption power play may be the real role model.”

Peace front:
  • The Trump team seems determined to forge a comprehensive peace deal between Israel, the Palestinians and the Sunni Arab world.
  • Egyptian President al-Sisi met with the Palestinian President Abbas on Monday, and King Salman of Saudi Arabia met with Abbas on Tuesday to discuss American-sponsored peace talks.
  • Former Haaretz journalist and now Channel 10 correspondent Barak Ravid wrote about “Trump’s mystery plan for Mideast peace,” which is expected early next year…:
  • ‘Israeli and Palestinian officials expect President Trump to unveil a Mideast peace proposal by early next year…
  • ‘The U.S. “peace team” working on the issue is relatively small and very discreet — just five people, including senior adviser Jared Kushner and special envoy Jason Greenblatt. The entire process is being run out of the White House, with the State Department and other agencies providing advice and support. According to U.S. officials, Trump is the driving force on this issue and is personally involved. Israeli officials say they hear Trump is pushing his team to have a proposal soon.
  • ‘In the last nine months Trump has met Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and Palestinian President Abbas separately three times each to discuss his peace initiative…
  • ‘Greenblatt’s last trip to the region lasted three weeks, and Kushner, who is officially leading the “peace team,” came to the region three times and spends hours every week in phone calls with Arab leaders in order to get their support.
  • ‘The small, close-knit team has meant almost no leaks and zero public scandals, mistakes or embarrassments…’
What they’re saying:
  • Netanyahu told U.K. Prime Minister May last week that he’s in ‘wait and see mode’ and expecting a proposal late this year or early next year, according to Israeli and British officials. “I don’t know what peace plan Trump is about to present and I am not sure anybody knows, but I am happy the Trump team is bringing fresh and out of the box thinking on this issue,“
  • Abbas told a group of former Israeli members of Knesset that he expects a plan later this year and that Trump has told him he supports the two-state solution and is planning to make his position public soon, according to people present at the meeting.
  • A White House official says there is no artificial deadline and the goal is to ‘facilitate a deal that works for both Israelis and Palestinians, not to impose anything on them’.
What to watch:
  • Trump is counting on Saudi Arabia to help get both the Israelis and Palestinians to say yes to any initiative. Kushner builds on his close relationship with the Saudi crown prince Mohamed Bin Salman as a conduit for a much bigger Saudi role in the peace process than ever before…President Abbas was in Riyadh earlier this week to talk about the peace process with the Saudi leadership.
  • Vice President Mike Pence will visit in mid-December and meet with both Netanyahu and Abbas and likely urge the parties to go back to the negotiating table.
  • Netanyahu’s political situation could be destabilized by a peace plan that includes Israeli concessions on politically charged issues, like borders, settlements and the future of Jerusalem. .
  • Abbas is in the midst of implementing a reconciliation deal with his rival party Hamas. The deal, which was led by Egypt with quiet support from the White House, includes the gradual transfer of control over the Gaza strip back to the Palestinian authority. A collapse of this agreement could have serious implications on any push for a peace deal.

Another breathtaking prophetic week in the Middle East – news and timeline

  • Wed Nov 1: Putin positions himself as Middle East broker as US retreats; visits Tehran Times of Israel
  • Wed Nov 1: IAF strikes Syrian munitions factory, Syria retaliates – Ynet
  • Sat Nov 4: Lebanese prime minister resigns, saying his life in danger – Ynet
  • Sun Nov 5: Saudi prince Salman rounds-up of Saudi princes, businessmen widens, travel curbs imposed – Reuters
  • Sun Nov 5: Hariri’s speech: An accurate description of Israel’s northern challenges – Ynet  Analysis: The Lebanese prime minister’s resignation concludes a week of turbulent events in the region, which all point to the extremely explosive situation created by the Iran-Syria-Hezbollah axis and, most importantly, mark the end of the civil war in Syria and its implications on Lebanon. Israel’s finest speech writers couldn’t have produced a better speech for Lebanese Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri against Hezbollah and Iran.
  • Mon Nov 6: Egypt’s Sissi vows push to restart Israeli-Palestinian peace talks  Times of Israel…in a meeting with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in Sharm el-Sheikh on Monday, said he remains committed to bringing Israelis and Palestinians back to the negotiating table.
  • Tue Nov 7: Abbas speaks with Saudi king Jerusalem Post...informed [Salman] of the latest developments related to the Palestinian issue, American efforts to advance the peace process and… national reconciliation,
  • Tue Nov 8: White House Statement on Iranian-Supported Missile Attacks Against Saudi Arabia 
  • Tues Nov 8 – President Trump’s North Korean warning speech in Seoul, Korea  White House transcript.
  • Thu Nov 9: Trump may have pushed Saudi Arabia and Iran closer to war  CNBC.  Koenig quotes CNBC.com senior columnist Jake Novak’s Commentary in some depth: ‘As I noted when he was first put in his top position by his father King Salman in June, Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman was already known as a hardcore hawk against Iran. Just a month before he was made crown prince, bin Salman declared that peace dialogue with Iran was impossible…More aggressive anti-Iranian hawks like bin Salman may have seen Donald Trump’s election as an excuse to win the day over more dovish princes and ministers. And the White House seemingly gave Saudi Arabia a green light…Step four seems to have come in September, when bin Salman reportedly secretly visited Israel to discuss Iran and other potential cooperative measures. Neither country is officially acknowledging that visit took place, but at least one Israeli government source confirmed the meeting last month…And now we’re on the step five, which appears to be a combination of the purge to remove any possible internal hurdles towards a greater anti-Iranian push, and blatant protests against any real or perceived Iranian aggression.

Is Saudi Arabia pushing Israel into war with Hezbollah and Iran?

  • Koenig: ‘This is an interesting perspective from Obama’s former ambassador to Israel.’  In Haaretz Daniel B. Shapiro is Distinguished Visiting Fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv, asks, ‘What connects Lebanese PM Saad Hariri’s sudden resignation and Hezbollah’s assassination threat with Saudi Arabia and Israel? It’s all about Iran.
  • ‘But Israel must not be maneuvered by an impatient Riyadh into a premature confrontation…Hariri has long known that as prime minister, he lived on borrowed time. At Hezbollah’s whim, at any moment, his father’s fate could become his own. It’s fair to say that the assassination attempt he alluded to in his resignation announcement represented a death threat he always faced. It was only a question of when Hezbollah would choose to operationalize it. 
  • ‘The bigger question is whether his resignation is a sign that the Saudis withdrew their support for him once again. At first blush, that would not seem consistent with King Salman and MBS’s overall desire to confront Iran’s proxies on every front…’
  • ‘But it is plausible that the Saudis are trying to create the context for a different means of contesting Iran in Lebanon: an Israeli-Hezbollah war….’

‘MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY’ – urgent prayer call for UK & PM May

About to take a brief walk I was prompted to send a brief email to a fellow watcher but spotted news of the following alert Veronika West posted yesterday. So am re-posting it with a couple of graphics as top priority:

URGENT PRAYER REQUEST FOR THE UNITED KINGDOM AND PRIME MINISTER THERESA MAY ‘MAYDAY! MAYDAY! MAYDAY!’

Just after midnight I heard these words in the realm of the Spirit going forth over the Nation of the United Kingdom, “Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!”

Veronika WestAs I began to pray, immediately the Holy Spirit gave me a heavy burden to pray for Prime Minister Theresa May. Now As I prayed in the Spirit I was shown clearly the Houses of Parliament and Number 10 Downing Street and then again I heard a clear distress call going forth over the Nation saying, “Mayday! Mayday! Mayday!”

Prophecy Today (link)

As I listened I heard that the call was coming from within these two locations (Houses of Parliament and 10 Downing Street), so I pressed in deeper then suddenly I saw these words being written over the Nation, “REBELLION RISING”, then I heard a loud trumpet sound and I heard these words echo in the realm of the Spirit, “The Trumpet Calls you to a Holy and Righteous Fight For Such a Time As This!”

Now as I have continued to pray and intercede this morning over what I saw and clearly heard over the Nation, the Holy Spirit led me back to this word, which I posted last year September concerning Theresa May and the Destiny of our Nation. I believe it is both poignant and relevant to what the Lord has revealed to me last night (emphasis RB): Continue reading →

Vision of eagle – role of ‘air supremacy’ in the harvest of souls

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

A ‘God-incidence’ struck last Thursday in connection with Dr Sharon Stone’s November mentoring day, and with what two attendees of that meeting were writing about on the same day last week > the necessity of gaining ‘air supremacy’!

Having arrived from Shaftesbury with a couple of friends on this month’s first Saturday, Simon Baddeley and I greeted one other in Caffe Nero over coffees bought en-route to  the meeting. There, they sat in the row behind me and he and I took extra special note of what Sharon’s associate was teaching on how to bring God’s Kingdom into secular society. We never spoke about it. And neither of us would have prophesied, let alone guessed, that we’d both write about a special aspect of it on the very same day!!

So on the 9th I blogged about Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Jordan, referred to America’s involvement and closed by citing how a prophet’s example of changing the spiritual atmosphere to release the Kingdom of God may affect international diplomacy. (See ‘Kingdom Presence & Prophecy’ section in Paws 4 Thought: Kingdom-related Events Since Lightning Strike on Mecca’s Grand Mosque.)  After telling how personal envoys of Donald Trump received prophetic words the speaker likened intercessory prayer and prophecy to the military strategy of ‘air supremacy’.

On the 9th Simon wrote as follows under this published heading:

‘AS YOU GAIN AIR SUPREMACY YOU WILL SEE THE HARVEST YOU HAVE LONGED FOR’

‘I have had this word for a couple of weeks but I heard (the speaker) use the same phrase that I’d heard the Lord say, which has prompted me to release the word.:

27 October 2017:
‘I heard the sound of wings beating; they are huge wings and I can feel the strength that is being exerted as they are causing a large eagle to take off from the ground. As it rose up I saw that there were scars on its ankles where it had been shackled.

‘I heard the Lord saying, “I am freeing my prophetic voices” and then heard him say,

“As you gain air supremacy you will see the harvest that you have longed for, for as you win the battle in the air you will win the battle on the ground. You have been wondering why the harvest hasn’t come in but it has been because you have not won the battle in the air; when this battle is won you will see harvest you long for.”

Simon Baddeley, 9th November 2017

Simon is on the leadership team at Father’s House Shaftesbury and associated with Dr Sharon Stone at Christian International Europe, Windsor, and a few years ago gave me an accurate prophetic word.

The symbolism of the eagle is especially significant in relation to prophecy. It featured prominently in my first encounter with it in church circles, as told in Why Write/blog? and as my cyber-friend and blogger Tony Puccio in Tucson, Arizona, can attest too. Hence, a copy of the above picture by John Mark Long is hanging in our lounge.

Paws-4-thought: Kingdom-related events since lightning strike on Mecca’s Grand Mosque

Won’t you pause to ponder and praise the Lord with me? Let’s look back briefly and consider how the prophetic has a place in diplomatic circles.

After a lightning strike damaged Mecca’s Grand Mosque just over two years ago I’ve noticed many changes are under way in Saudi Arabia and the M-East generally. Developments indicative of major spiritual and diplomatic changes in Muslim leaders’ relationships with and their attitudes toward Christians, and Israel in particular, are quietly emerging.

Late in the year of the ‘blood-moon tetrad‘ (2015) I closed a series of posts on the years’ spectacular events with Why this September is special: Update #2 – Islam, which referred to a lightning strike in Mecca. Under the sub-head ‘Anniversary of 9/11 Atrocity’ I wrote:

‘On the anniversary of this century’s ‘day of infamy’ for New York, I noted another event seemed to connect into the collapse of the Twin Towers – as well as possibly being of God, or was it simply coincidence?  Lightning from a severe thunderstorm in Mecca struck a tall crane, which collapsed into the Grand Mosque thereby killing and injuring hundreds.

‘The construction engineer is quoted as saying, “It was an act of God”. A ‘very saddened’ British imam is reputed to have said, “It’s a blessing in disguise for those killed”. Four days later Saudi Arabia’s King Salman suspended contracts for the construction company, which is owned by the Bin Laden family!

‘Nevertheless, it ‘struck’ me that it’s a mirror ‘action replay’ on the 14th anniversary of the attack upon America, inspired as it was by the teachings and practices of the Meccan founder of Islam. That is, the very heart of the homeland and faith of those modern religious plotters and perpetrators was visited by an almost similar ‘toppling of a tower’. Also, my first impression was of The Almighty throwing down the gauntlet to confront satan. It’s far, far too uncanny not to be of poignant significance!’

The necessity of brevity means we’ll avoid itemising all subsequent events, except the notable one, and overlooking Crown Prince Muhammad’s radical reforms, your attention is drawn to recent events with his main Sunni Muslim allies of Egypt and Jordan.

This year’s change of US administration brought a complete sea-change not only in US-Arab diplomacy but also between USA and Israel. In his first foreign trip as the POTUS, Donald Trump addressed the 2017 Riyadh Summit in Saudi Arabia with a well-crafted speech. I re-blogged Joel Rosenberg’s report Trump boldly urges Muslim leaders to “drive out the terrorist and extremists” from their nations and mosques with this intro’:

‘Note Trump’s accurate description of Islamic terror as “battle between Good and Evil” (read prepared speech.)  All a mighty contrast to Obama’s deep rift with Riyadh in 2011 for betraying Egypt’s president Mubarak as a consequence of having invited the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood to his 2009 Cairo speech plus his back-channel dealings with Iran, as I reported just over 8 years ago in Today’s Importance in History (18 May 2009)!’

Christian Leaders Meet Middle-East’s Leaders

THEREFORE, with those two historic and highly significant events in mind let’s look at the latest news from Joel Rosenberg of his delegation of evangelical leaders’ top-level meetings in Egypt and Jordan. Tap/click links to read his reports in full:

1st Nov > Today in Cairo, Egyptian President Sisi Welcomed First-ever Delegation of Christian Leaders for 3-hour Meeting : I had opportunity to meet Egyptian President el-Sisi in Washington in April.  What I could not say at the time was that…the President invited me to bring a delegation of Evangelical Christian leaders to visit him in Cairo, as well as to meet other senior Egyptian government officials and religious leaders. We’ve been working on this with his staff and advisors ever since, and today the project not only became a reality but was far more than I could possibly have hoped for…’ 

2nd Nov > Arab & Israeli media provide inside details of President el-Sisi’s historic meeting Evangelical Christian leaders in Cairo : …’Rosenberg, who was born to a Jewish father, told Haaretz that he was surprised at the level of interest expressed by the Egyptians in the delegation. “For the leader of Egypt to invite a Christian group to sit with him, discuss what he’s doing, talk about some of the difficult issues, that’s very impressive. I was hoping we could get ten minutes with him, and eventually we got almost three hours. From our side, the important thing was to show our appreciation for his fight against terrorism and extremism, for his commitment to peace and security ties with Israel, and for saving Egypt from the darkness of the Muslim Brotherhood.”…‘

8th Nov > Jordan’s King Abdullah II welcomes Evangelical Christian Delegation at Palace in Amman. Leaders thank King for advancing peace, fighting terrorism, caring for refugees and protecting Christians : ‘The meeting capped three days of meetings between Delegation members and senior government officials; Evangelical, Catholic and Muslim leaders in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan; and a moving visit to the Zaatari Refugee Camp near the Syrian border….’

Kingdom Presence & Prophecy

An insight upon another quite different aspect of spiritual diplomacy on behalf of the King of Kings was shared at Revd Dr Sharon Stone’s mentoring day last Saturday – it’s that of the office and function of God’s prophet.

As part of his material, the speaker for the first session taught about the student’s ‘work’ or assignment in the Lord as being the prime driver and energizer in their lives. As God created air for birds to fly through so He created His Kingdom in which His presence manifests and in which His saints are to function. Therein, Holy Spirit’s words and power comes to His people. Those anointed in the office of prophet are to create a Kingdom atmosphere in order to do their ‘work’.  So, without the presence of God any ministry is impossible. The question is, how’s this done in secular, even governmental, meetings?

In giving an example this speaker surprised us by telling about when he was invited to a meeting in Geneva, at the United Nations, and expected to prophesy to some government leaders. In meeting ‘the world’ with every race, creed and culture present, he realised the need to avoid jargon, or ‘churchese’.

‘Why? What am I trying to do? I’m trying to conquer an air-space; I’m trying to bring a Kingdom atmosphere into an already world-atmosphere. And there’s nothing more like world atmosphere, I promise you, than being at the UN…every ambassador, diplomat and delegate is there and I’m in front of a couple and of course I don’t know if they’re Christians. So I’m not going to say “Thus saith the Lord”. All I’m going to do is speak the Word of God  into the atmosphere and drop Truth, even in this place. And so I said (to X and Y), “I don’t know who you are but I see you’re in between two intense negotiations right now and I see…”

He gave the gathered students just a tiny peek of the bigger picture he was giving them about their personal work and how the Lord is helping. They then asked the prophet, “You don’t know who we are, do you?” – “No” he replied.

It turns out they’re Donald Trump’s envoys and the prophet continued: ‘(Then) as I’m speaking the atmosphere changes, all of a sudden the Kingdom of God came in and the next day – and the next day – there was momentum to minister to most of the diplomats…Why? Because we can change the atmosphere with the prophetic!’

The speaker explained how this principle works by alluding to the military strategy of  ‘air supremacy’ – so too, with prophecy and intercessory prayer.

God’s Perfect Plan will blow your mind!

From new book: The amazing enigma that is Daniel 11 — Part 1

Readers who relished Mark Davidson’s well-researched Daniel Revisited will enjoy studying this appetizer for his latest book…very well done Mark. (Opening his post overwrites my brief re-blog but if you wish to read in a new window tap/click here, and then continue reading Part 2 of 3, also in new, separate window.)

Mark Davidson's avatarTHE FOUR SIGNPOSTS

Daniel 11 has the potential to be very helpful in helping us understand much of what will happen in the Middle East during the Fourth Signpost and Tribulation.

The Problem

The question has been which parts of Daniel 11 were fulfilled in ancient times, and which parts apply to being fulfilled soon, in the end times? As you may know, if you read Daniel Revisited, Daniel 11 was mostly ignored, but it is very much a part of the new book.

My new book, using the ancient method of reading that was lost and found, I believe, has solved the question of Daniel 11 and it’s a bit of a surprise. I cannot show right now how this method arrives at what I reveal in these posts—that’s in the book—and I’ll show it later, but here I will show the result. The book will show how to use this reading…

Anglicans lead Wittenberg-style protest against ‘progressive’ bishops in their cathedrals.

https://pjmedia.com/faith/anglicans-lead-martin-luther-style-grassroots-protest-against-progressive-christianity/

On the 500th anniversary of the Reformation, with Martin Luther nailing the 95 Theses to the door of the Wittenberg Castle Church, Anglicans nailed (or tacked) a similar protesting document to the doors of five Church of England cathedrals. Leaders in the movement told PJ Media they intend to push the Church of England back to the Bible and against a “secular” form of “soft socialism.”

“These postings of the Southwark Declaration represent a grassroots protest amongst both the orthodox laity and the clergy against the complacent selling-out of the Church of England to the current secular zeitgeist in the name of progressive Christianity,” Gavin Ashenden, a missionary bishop to England who rejected his ordination in the Church of England (and his position as special bishop to Queen Elizabeth II) this year, told PJ Media.

Each of the protesting Anglicans posted both the Southwark Declaration — a document…

Centenary of the Balfour Declaration

Prime Ministers meet prior to gala dinner – Credit: Peter Nicholls/PA Wir (tap for link)

Today marks the 100th anniversary of the British Government’s issuing a Declaration in support for ‘A National Home for the Jewish People’ (read draft versions at Balfour100). As expected, this morning’s edition of Koenig’s World Watch Daily includes this in its rolling headlines, ‘November 2nd 2017 is the 100th Anniversary of the Balfour Declaration’ and displays a copy of the document:

 

Now, does this anniversary have any relevance to prophecies in the Holy Bible?

In my opinion it’s prophetically signalled by the fact that Koenig has sandwiched the Declaration between two directly Gog-Magog relevant headlines – (above) ‘In Iran, Putin says dismantling nuclear deal is ‘not acceptable’.’ with a photo of his shaking hands yesterday with Iran’s President Rhouani – the headline shown below it reads as shown here with initial text describing the preceding Declaration item:

So we’re not only back to the Bible but also to what grabbed my attention in mid-1980s of Iran rehearsing (with its Sunni enemy troops!) the storming of Jerusalem whilst I was reading about it as a non-Christian in the secular book ‘The Invisible Hand’ (tap link to learn more).

Never forget Khameini’s belief that their full attack will facilitate the supernatural return of their ‘hidden imam’ or Mahdi – accompanied by the prophet Jesus!! (See Iranian Leader’s End-times Declaration)  LOL!  So let’s pray that Khameini is blessed with a similar personal revelation of the supreme power of Jesus Christ over Muslim’s god and prophet as had stunned the ex-Hezbollah Afshin David.

As well as being related to the prophecies in Ezekiel 38-39, those two items on World Watch tie in with the next headline on the surgical insertion of microchips under the skin in the web between the thumb and hand. This development was foretold in Revelation 13 wherein a demonic entity forces people to ‘receive a mark on right hand or forehead’ in order to buy and sell – just like holding a phone and waving it over a cash machine!

SO MILLENNIALS – BEWARE of enslavement to your devices!!

It’s so obvious that we’re quickly getting closer to the times of the battle of Armageddon and Jesus Christ’s return to put all demonic principalities and powers under His feet.

For more information consider Cranmer’s excellent historical/theological review of the Declaration…which concludes:

‘God told Abraham to “Go…”, and he responded “I will…”. God promised Abraham that his descendants would have a land – a geographic entity – and would be a blessing to all the nations of the earth. Israel is a fulfilment of that promise, or the covenant of blessing is as fragile and ephemeral as the desert covenant. Christians and Jews together can thank the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and praise the God and Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ for the restoration of the Jewish people to their homeland, because it was an eschatological promise that He would so. And if that was not a promise, then Jesus may not in fact be the long-promised Messiah, and our promised salvation is nullified in a plethora of meaningless metaphors.‘

Inaccurate BBC Balfour Declaration claim misleads audiences

The unreliability of Bigoted Brainwashing Clowns, aka BBC, as a source of information is demonstrated in this demolition of its ignorance. (See also recent post’s update alerting readers to BBC’s reporting less than 1% of terrorist attacks in Israel.)

Hadar Sela's avatarBBC Watch

On November 1st an article titled “Battle of Beersheba charge recreated for centenary” was published on the BBC News website’s Australia and Middle East pages.

In among an otherwise reasonable account of the commemoration of that First World War battle, readers found the following two paragraphs:

“The Battle of Beersheba led to the Balfour Declaration – the first time the British government endorsed the establishment of “a national home for the Jewish people” in Palestine.

While many Israelis believe it was the foundation stone of modern Israel and the salvation of the Jews, many Palestinians regard it as a betrayal.” [emphasis added]

The Battle of Beersheba took place on October 31st 1917. The Balfour Declaration was published just two days later on November 2nd 1917. Apparently though the BBC would have its audiences believe – as the use of the words “led to” indicates…

Time for the ‘house of cards’ to come down!

This prophetic promise comes courtesy of UK Prophetic Words and is very interesting in view of what Leisa Ebere and Charlie Shamp brought here and here from the Lord, and ‘Amen’ to Vida Caplin’s conclusion:

IT IS TIME FOR THE HOUSE OF CARDS TO COME DOWN

I saw in the spirit a house of cards and heard the old nursery rhyme ‘London Bridge is falling down‘ begin to play. A hand appeared and took a card from the bottom and the house fell. I looked at the cards as they lay in a heap and saw that they were all face cards, jacks, queens and kings. I then heard another old rhyme ‘Humpty Dumpty’ begin to play.

I asked Holy Spirit to reveal to me the meaning of the vision.

“This house of cards has been carefully built over the years by those in power, it has been shaken countless times, many have seen the cracks form but it has been fortified and strengthened by those who live within its walls. It is now the time for this house to come down and it shall be done by my hand. Many shall wonder at its falling and ask, How can this be? Should we not rebuild? Can we not establish again what once was? But it shall not come to pass for no man can put this back together.”

Again I pondered on Holy Spirit’s revelation but wondered why the two nursery rhymes had played. I was stirred to look at the words of each one. In London Bridge is falling down, the words repeat time and time again in each verse about rebuilding and making stronger the construction, even setting guards to watch over it. Yet when Humpty Dumpty falls the last line states, ‘All the King’s horses and all the King’s men, couldn’t put Humpty together again!’

God is going to pull down something very big and it will not be rebuilt. This is an empire work of corruption that Holy Spirit is speaking of. The house of cards speaks of something that has been intricately built over the years, the face cards speak of those who are in powerful positions or are known. More than that Holy Spirit has not revealed but we watch for the dramatic fall to happen.

Vida Caplin, Saturday 28th October 2017

PS 1: Blog’s facebook remarks 31 Oct:

>Rachel Elliston: ‘I’m not familiar with the tv series House of Cards (it is a box set yet to be watched), however I was amused to see it in the news on my fb feed in the context of being ‘deeply troubled’ and the series being cancelled… just days after I first saw this word. Funny how things in the spiritual and the ‘natural’, or ‘symbolic natural’ mirror each other, often in very odd ways’.

> My response: ‘…I too am unfamiliar with US-version of ‘HoC’ and didn’t follow last night’s and today’s news…but noted front-page spread of today’s Telegraph on scandals relating to UK MPs and US government (albeit fictitious in latter). So it’s not only a demonic version of the UK/US spiritual link but also an instance of the Lord exposing corruption in every sphere, as in examples of fulfilled prophecies (see FP #10 entries).

‘Judgement and the Church of England.’ A sermon…following the Hereford Diocesan Synod.

Having resigned from ministry in the Anglican communion Gavin’s incisive analysis cuts close to the ‘bone’. His wise opinion, and closing dream and vision, confirm the validity of a recent prophetic word and vision of pruning of CofE’s deadwood, and my earlier conversational piece about the SSM Bill. It’s exactly as Jesus foretold about these End-times being like the Days of Noah and of Lot!

Good Shepherd

“For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”

(Ephesians 6.12)

Jesus said,

“ If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand.” (Mk 3.25).

There are at least two ways of doing theology; one primarily as a rational and intellectual act, and one by discernment of the Spirit.

Our Enlightenment traditions are very comfortable with the first, but Churches that look to the Holy Spirit rather than the nous or the human mind, need to be able to exercise the gift of the Holy Spirit called in the New Testament, ‘discernment.’

This is an exercise not in the cerebralness of rationality, of which we have had a great deal, but in spiritual discernment; which can only be done by the twice-born, and…

Charlie Shamp prophecies on the UK’s Awakening – #3

From part #2 – An hour later, after bathing in the Spirit’s presence, Charlie speaks about the power and glory of what the Lord’s doing through Capstone church and then says (from 2hr 51min):

LONDON AND ENGLAND – SHAKINGS AND RUMBLINGS OF AN AWAKENING

“I am telling you tonight, under the power of the prophetic, that there is a performance that’s coming across this city of London, that the hand of God is coming upon you, London. Not just East London, but I am telling you the ENTIRE CITY! The hand of the Lord. The hand of the Lord. And you say, ‘What’s the purpose? What’s the point? What’s the point of tarrying in an upper room?’ It’s because you have been HOLDING THE NATION IN YOUR HEART; OVERSHADOWING EVEN THE CITY, AND THE LORD IS GOING TO STRETCH OUT HIS HAND. He’s going to stretch out his hand and begin to release supernatural performances, Kingdom demonstrations, supernatural releases of the Spirit of God, on the street corners. And…in witches covens, and witch covens will bow their knee to Jesus Christ! Yeah…Drug dealing and prostitution will shut down by the power of God…I’m telling you, there is a hungry body that is going to taste and see the Kingdom of God like never before…

“Lift your hands, I’m prophesying over England:
Even Psalm 68:8 – The earth shook. the Heavens also dropped at the presence of the Lord. Even Sinai itself was moved at the presence of God in Israel.

“There is a prophetic power that’s going to come in this hour that is going to begin to RIP OPEN WHOLE REGIONS. Whole regions are going to begin to receive the fire, the oil and the glory. The fire, the oil and the glory. The FOG of GOD (part #1 refers). And there’s even going to be; the Lord told me over the next several years there are going to be shakings. There are going to be shakings that are going to take place, even across London and across England. Shakings – shakings across this nation in the physical, in the physical. The Lord is going to shake the natural earth. I am not talking about massive or major earthquakes; I am talking about shakings that are going to be sizeable. People won’t be harmed, but there will be sizeable shakings and rumblings of an awakening that is taking place across the nation. I prophesied this in 2015 where I saw that there was going to be shakings and rumblings. And I’m telling you, the awakening is happening even now. And the presence of God, as it comes down, the earth is going to begin to shake; the shaking; the shaking, the shaking. There is a shaking that is going to happen. And it’s going to be a sign of the awakening; there’s going to be a sign of the awakening of the Spirit of God across the land. He is going to begin to awaken people out of religious churches. He is going to cause them to move out of the dead, dying body and move in to the living Kingdom. He is going to cause them to get out of the place of sitting in the pew, and moving into the performance of the Spirit of God, and the shakings and rumblings are going to happen across England. There’s going to be shakings. There’s going to be shaking and rumblings that are going to transpire. And it will be a sign of the presence of God dropping down on this nation.

“Even in the City of London, I see that there’s going to be a shaking, a shaking. And it will be a sign of God’s hand coming down, His presence dropping down, stretching out His hand to perform signs and wonders and miracles. Not through just one; not through just two or three; not just through one or two or three; but the Lord is going to begin to move upon the many. God is releasing an Army, an Amy that will carry the frequency of heaven, the worship and praise and adoration of the Kingdom and they will begin to move into demonstration of power, and the land is going to shake, the earth is going to move. It will be a shock to many.

“What God is going to do in awakening in the UK is going to shock Europe. What God is going to do in these fiery islands is going to shock, is going to shock, even Europe, into a place that they will not be satisfied with humanistic teaching and religion and tradition any longer, but they’ll rise up and recognise that there’s more; there’s more; there’s more; there’s more; there’s more, there’s more.

“What’s going to come out of the UK is going to begin to spark something even in the United States of America, and cause even greater, in a sense, if I could say, a jealousy, a jealousy, but a holy jealousy, that says, “You can’t have it without us. That says you can’t just have it in the UK – we want it over here! And I am telling you THE FIRE IS GOING TO JUMP, IT’S GOING TO JUMP, IT IS GOING TO JUMP BACK AND FORTH, BACK AND FORTH, BACK AND FORTH, for the Lord is CREATING AN ARC BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES and the UNITED KINGDOM. HE IS UNITING THEM IN THE SPIRIT. HE IS BUILDING AN ARK OF HIS PRESENCE AND POWER.”

Amen.

Charlie Shamp prophecies on the UK’s Awakening – #1

Thank you to the Lord and to Carolyn Stewart for painstakingly transcribing most of Charlie’s delivery upon returning to Capstone Church, Ilford, Essex, on 19th October.  Watch Capstone’s Facebook video (opens in new window), scroll to 1:37:00 mark for the start of Charlie’s greeting and then prophesying as recorded below…

Charlie Shamp

The London Awakening, week 17 day 2 archive (not in new window)

THE LORD IS UNITING THE UK FOR THE FIRE OF HEAVEN TO BREAKOUT

“Many of you know that personally I’ve been contending just for, not even just revival, but for an awakening to hit the UK. You know, revivals usually last three to five years but an awakening will last for an entire generation, up to 50 years!

“And I believe that the Lord is uniting the UK right now – and I don’t just mean through politics, but I mean through the Spirit of God; that the Lord is uniting these islands for the wildfires of heaven to break out; for the Kingdom of God to invade every part of this nation, across every, every part of it; that there won’t be a place where the presence of God is not breaking out, where the power of the Holy Spirit is not evident, where signs and wonders and miracles are not just a part of our everyday life.

“I am telling you right now,  that there is a prophetic momentum that is happening in this nation right now that is unstoppable. There is an acceleration that is happening – and I am already starting to prophesy just underneath this mantle that’s here tonight – but there is an acceleration in the prophetic destiny of this nation. And I’m telling you that no devil in hell, no satanic system, no agenda from the enemy is going to be able to stop what God is going to do. Because the Lord is uniting a body.

“And I’m telling you, the united body is going to walk across this United Kingdom and the power of the Holy Spirit is going to be put on display by men and women of God that are set ablaze – sons and daughters of the Kingdom – moving in demonstration and power of the Spirit that is an unstoppable force – unstoppable force! Hallelujah!”

Charlie then briefly tells a little of what he’s been getting from the Lord during recent travels and returning to Britain since last year – “I recognise that the Lord has a destiny for this nation”. Coming up the steps he felt the overpowering waves of the Presence in the upstairs sanctuary at Capstone church – “You know ,it’s one thing to see a thing prophetically and then to experience it!” – he continues:

THE LORD IS SHIFTING THE ATMOSPHERE OF THE UK

“I was in Perth, Australia, earlier in the year; I believe it was in July.  I was taken to a tower that’s there in the city.  They brought me there to just kind of sight-see, and there’s a tower there in Perth, and there’s these bells that are there, in the city.  And they’re from England – they are actually from St Martin-in-the-Fields [in Trafalgar Square RB]. They were rung during some of the greatest achievements and greatest victories of England.  They are over there and they were transported over to the nation of Australia, in the city of Perth.

“It Is Time”

“And the Lord began speak to me as I went back to my hotel, back to the place where I was staying.  I got caught up in a vision.  And I saw Big Ben and I saw in the spirit the Lord was going to cause a sign and a wonder to come from Big Ben; that it would be a sign, because I’d been walking out this thing that I prophesied last year…and what God was saying, that we were going to have to walk through for a season in the UK, but that there was going to be a great awakening that was going to come.

“And, the Lord told me – in this vision, I was seeing Big Ben – and the Lord told me, he said I’m going to cause a sign and a wonder to come; a sound that’s going to come, and I’m going to silence my enemies.

“And as I was in this encounter, suddenly, like a fog – a fog began to come down.  And a lot of times you think a fog is just something that’s not good.  And the Lord said, ‘It’s the London fog’.  And I said, ‘London fog?’ I said, ‘Oh!’ and He said; ‘It’s the fog of my presence’.

“I said, ‘Lord, what’s that?’ He said: ‘It’s the fire, the oil and the glory, and where the enemy has tried to come in and blind the people, cloud their minds, I am releasing my fog and I’m shifting the atmosphere of the UK; I’m shifting it to the place of my presence, my outpouring, my fire, my oil and my glory, the fog of heaven coming down to release a new sound out of heaven and out of the people of God. Hallelujah! Where signs and wonders will begin to be poured out.’

“I feel this so strongly…And about a month ago I believe, there was a report that came out that said Big Ben was going to be silenced for four years.  And the Lord said: ‘That’s the sign. That’s the shift.  That’s the major shift that I am doing, to change the direction of the nation’. ”

‘Weep for the BBC’ (intercession) starts tonight

Robin Jegede-Brimson, co-pastor of Servant Ministries in Whitstable, Kent, and one of the leaders of the Inter-Prophetic Alliance (IPA) issues this invitation to intercessors:

A CALL TO WEEP (INTERCEDE) FOR THE BBC

The BBC is in GOD’s spotlight!

We are called to make disciples of all nations, as in making converts and discipling people from all ethnic groups (Gk:Ethnae) “nations” but in another sense we are also called to introduce kingdom values to the systems and institutions of nations. This gives rise to the distinction in Matt 25:32 between sheep and goat nations. We see patterns of this in the life of Joseph who through his wisdom was able to save and preserve life in Egypt as well as Daniel who was promoted on the back of his very public unflinching in the face of persecution. He stood up for his faith, despite all…

In 1992 the BBC was dedicated to GOD and the plaque in the lobby of the BBC boldly declares,

“To GOD Almighty, .. praying that a good sowing may produce a good harvest so that everything unclean, impure and hostile to peace may be driven out, that whatever is beautiful, sincere, genuine and of good reputation may stand  . .”

However, this millennium has seen the BBC shift from being an impartial broadcaster to one which actively seeks to push ideologies averse to civilization and family, the building blocks of society and godliness. When those at the helm are challenged through petitions or the newscasters or offered an opinion other than that of the liberals, all objections are treated with impunity and hostility. “Bigot!”, “Homophobic!” and the like are what come. The BBC has become an organisation used by the enemy to promote gender extremism and hostility against any who hold to family values. A national institution in favour of all things Islam at the expense of Christianity. Even GOD-fearing politicians are not spared this barrage when they stand up for truth, decency and common sense morality.

Here are a few examples :

So, what can we do? Are we helpless at this tide of evil? By no means!! We are not without weapons, we are not without power, we are not helpless, WE CAN PRAY, and PRAY we shall! It is time to FIGHT BACK!

Credit_ JesusIsComing_th-1

The BBC and this slide to moral anarchy was highlighted to the Inter-Prophetic Alliance and friends (a group of leaders burdened for the nation) and we set time aside to ask The LORD for His heart for the BBC. We asked for His revelation on what was behind this and what prayer strategy He may have for us. Here are some of our findings and conclusions:-

A. GOD loves all the people in the BBC and desires that they all come to the saving knowledge of JESUS. Tears flowed freely from our faces as we once again encountered The SAVIOUR’s love for all of humanity including the broadcasters who have sought to vilify believers. We wept as we prayed mercy and forgiveness on all the broadcasters who have been caught in the enemy’s trap and castigated believers.

B.  There is a heavy influence on all (but for the grace of GOD and those covered by His Blood) who work in the BBC by the spirit of the power of the air who has been invited by evil workers to rule there. This controlling diabolical spirit is the enemy.

C.  One of the past DG’s of the BBC was closely associated with the occult and as a result of this pacts were made with the enemy. Presently there are several serving at the BBC who have entered into similar demonic pacts.

PRAYER STRATEGY 

As we sought The LORD on what to do, this is what came to us –

1.  Pray, weep and intercede for all who are in the BBC. Pray for GOD’s hand of mercy to be revealed to all and for all who serve the nation there to come to repentance. We must uphold the spiritual truth that GOD always gives time to repent and turn before executing judgement (e.g Thyatira in Rev 2)
“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance” 2Peter 3:9

2.  Pray for GOD’s warning that they are in the spotlight to come to ears of those in authority in the BBC, that both Christian and pre-Christian alike find a place of repentance. (note that GOD expects godliness from all (e.g. Herod in Acts 12)
“When Jonah’s warning reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust. 7 This is the proclamation he issued in Nineveh: “By the decree of the king and his nobles: Do not let people or animals, herds or flocks, taste anything; do not let them eat or drink. 8 But let people and animals be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. 9 Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish.” 10 When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened”(Jonah) 

3. Strengthen the hands of those who are called to be watchmen and intercessors to the BBC and see a company of priestly intercessors who will man the gates for this portal to the nation.

RB NOTE: readers familiar with my highly critical blogs on the Badly Biased Corporation (eg. 5 years ago) will recall its anti-Israel stance is not only pro-Palestinian in failing in its statutory duty to report current as well as historical events accurately but also its lack of  impartially arising from its distinctly prejudiced policy. This is amply demonstrated  by BBC Watch’s in-depth investigations overflowing with the corporation’s campaign of irredeemable misinformation, falsehoods and inaccuracies.

Thus, the self-righteous BBC deliberately misleads viewers about the state of Israel.
