John Kilpatrick: Midnight Words for 2017 and Beyond

Posted on Wednesday, 1 February, 2017 by Richard Barker

Readers will recall the 20 prophetic words Revd John Kilpatrick was given over Christmas 2015 for 2016 and beyond, especially the awesome prediction of nations being “shaken” and kingdoms “jolted”, as happened last year across Europe and the United States! (See Fulfilled Prophecies #7.)

In his Sunday service on Inauguration weekend John remarked about the powerful wake-up call he’d received that necessitated furiously writing down all he was given. Here is the published version that he delivered last Sunday. Those annotated <NB> I will cover in an another post, but you may know the word about Jordan is especially pertinent in view of King Abdullah’s visit this week to the White House, as reported in World Watch Daily.

A MIDNIGHT INTERRUPTION

JohnK 214_logo One night this week, I went to bed at 9:00pm, which is very unusual for me. I was very tired from traveling and a busy schedule. I was awakened by the Spirit of the Lord speaking with a strong expression, and He said…

“At midnight, a cry was made, ‘Behold the Bridegroom comes, go out to meet him.’ Then they arose, both the wise and the foolish. They awoke from slumber.”

I sat straight up in my bed and looked at my digital clock. It read 12:00 midnight!

It was a very sobering moment for me. Holy Spirit revealed to me that His people have indeed awakened from slumber! Many things were weighed in the balances, but the people of God rose up, and God heard their cry.

The Lord says,

“Therefore, I have set before My people open doors—not just a door, but many doors. I am opening doors of opportunity that have not been opened to you before. Because there has been a great change of heart, I have hastened to answer. Many have awakened, but they have not arisen. My word now is, ‘Arise!’ Do not return to slumber as in times past, because there will be many opportunities that I am opening to this nation, and very effectual doors that I am opening to My Church. These doors will lead to greater resources than you have known. It is important not to be timid, intimidated or fearful. This is not one of the four seasons I have established in the earth, but this is a special season. It is a time of My choosing. As the men of Issachar had understanding of the times to know what to do, so I will give you that very same insight if you will ask of me. I will direct you and show you.”

CLOSED SOCIETIES ARE GOING TO OPEN

“Remember Naomi of old. After a painful season of loss, heartbreak and heartache, she heard I was visiting My people and that bread was readily available. She heard this news in a bleak place, a forsaken place, filled with reversal and hopelessness. Upon the report of fresh visitation, she arose and stirred herself. She left the desolate place and came to Judah. My people have been desolated and have suffered. I am going to cause the news of a fresh visitation to spread quickly—God is visiting His people once again!

“The thing that will mark this move of My Spirit to distinguish it from all others is that I am going to move mightily in closed nations and closed societies. The word of spiritual bread among these starving and closed nations will create spiritual refugees, which will immediately create movement of entire nations of hungry and spiritually starving refugees toward the outstations of fresh bread.

“My Spirit will spread like a fire through empires, dynasties, tribes, clans, and among the
heathen as well. I will set My table before them, and they will taste of My goodness and
experience My mercy just as Naomi arose and brought her daughter-in-law, Ruth, to the place of visitation. It was there that Ruth was joined with Boaz, her redeemer.

“I tell you, many will believe this good news to be a rumor, but they will continue to hear the reports until they will come and see for themselves the wonders of the Lord. It will cause a great stir among the nations.

“I am going to open three doors:

I am going to unseat powers and principalities in those regions that have long deprived the people of My presence and of My Spirit. A brief, but widespread harvest will occur. A once closed society of unbelievers will now have the opportunity to hear and to believe upon the Lord Jesus.
There will also be a movement of laborers, those that I have chosen and
called to work the fields of harvest. This is their time. This is what they have
awaited, many since childhood. This is their time. They will bring their sickles
and reaping tools, and they shall come rejoicing, bringing their sheaves with
them during this harvest. There will be great excitement!
There will also be a great commotion of the leaders of the harvest taking
their places. They shall direct the harvest and place the laborers where they
best fit. They are My apostolic leaders overseeing this last day harvest. They
will know the mind of the Spirit. They will know who is to go where, and who
is to do what. There will be resources and wealth to fund the harvest of the
ages. The newcomer and the veteran soul winner will be paid the same wage
in that day.”

This is the Lord’s doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes. In that day, the knowledge
of the glory of the Lord shall fill the earth as the waters cover the sea.”

MINISTRY MADE EASY

In the day of harvest, although brief, it will be said that it has never been so easy to preach, pray or prophesy. There will be no toil in leading the heathen to the wells of living water. The sick will be released. The bound will be easily delivered, and the lost will readily comprehend the way. This Gospel of the Kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then the end shall come…Even so, Lord Jesus!

THE JEWS’ DAY OF VISITATION <NB>

Most importantly, there will be a long awaited harvest that will begin in the land of Israel. The light of salvation will shine upon the Jews. As God reveals His love for His people through a chain of miraculous deliverances, the house of Israel will begin to see Jehovah’s salvation in a new light through Jesus’ shed blood. This will surely be the beginning; but full salvation shall come at a later appointed time for the Jewish people alone, and Israel shall experience a rebirth in one day.

MUSLIMS WILL RECEIVE THE MESSAGE <NB>

Because the Lord is no respecter of persons, a GREAT shaking is coming to the Muslim nations. It will be sudden! It will be an unexpected and unexplained shaking that will redefine many Muslim nations and their leadership structures. The Lord is now in the process of shaking institutions, cultures, dialects, nationalities, governments, political structures and their frameworks, which men have trusted through generations. Many of them will be so shaken they cannot survive the shaking. Holy Spirit will even destabilize power structures, and many of those things that men have relied upon will ultimately fail. Truth will grip men’s hearts like a vice, even the unbelievers’ hearts and the hearts of the heathen. Ears will be opened to hear, even the ears of the unregenerates.

WORDS OF KNOWLEDGE

RESTLESS FOR A REASON

You are in ministry, and you are restless where you are. You have reached a place where you have peaked in your vision and capacity. That is all right because God is opening a door for you by the month of July, and you will walk through that door. This door will stretch you — stretch your mind and stretch your confidence. You will be forced to change your mind about things, which you need to change your mind about. As a matter of fact, you will feel overwhelmed, not really knowing if you can do this. Indeed, it is an open door Holy Spirit has opened, which He could not have offered you until now because your frustration has peaked. You are now in holy desperation, and Holy Spirit will use that to remove you, so He can move you through this open door.

SISTER BLESSINGS

God has promised to open your womb, yet you are desperate and discouraged. With God, all things are possible. God opened Leah’s womb and blessed her, as He will open your womb and bless you. He will also bless your sister who cannot have children. He will remember her and give her the desire of her heart as well.

CLEANSING THE BLOODLINE

Blindness has plagued your large biological family, and generational curses have plagued your bloodline; but Holy Spirit is now removing the blindness because of your prayers, and they will see of the goodness of God for the very first time. It will remove the questions of past and present generations. God has heard and answered. Revelation will penetrate them, and they will see and understand. Great freedom and ministry will come upon this family bloodline that was once considered almost beyond hope.

“I now have servants poised that I will use to break the entrenched lies and remove
the scales from their eyes as Ananias did from Saul of Tarsus. This will not be a single
person that will be freed, but an entire family. I, the Lord, already have plans to use
them to set many other captives free. These captives will receive ministry by those
who were once bound as they were bound. This will be the doings of the Lord, and
none will be able to resist or stop it.”

SHY SEERS AND INTIMIDATED PROPHETS

You have been frustrated and have felt rejected and left out—you have felt like a misfit, but because of the integrity and goodness of your heart and your unwavering love for truth, Holy Spirit is now opening to you visions, interpretation of dreams and even words of knowledge. Each time, as you release them, it will expand you, and you will become more and more comfortable with this gift; whereas before, you halted and had faltering confidence.

“I am going to open your eyes as Elisha’s servant, Gehazi, had his eyes opened to My
world of glory and power. You will become bolder and bolder and will not retreat again to the intimidation of the past. This will be very easy, so easy that you will not struggle with the transformation. It will be as though you were always this free. If you believe, you will see! Confirm yourself to yourself. Do not speak doubt to yourself any longer. The doubt delays your usefulness among My people.”

SILENT TREATMENT

Satan has attempted to still your voice. He has tried to destroy your ability to speak. You have been greatly alarmed at the loss of your ability to communicate by both word and song. It seemed as though you would lose vocal communication.

“I have already prepared those, which I will use to restore not only your voice, but also the air flow you need in order to be heard and have the success you have been destined to have. Do not fear things as they are, but rejoice that I have reached you with this sure word of deliverance. Your voice shall be heard again!”

STAY WHERE YOU ARE

Your temptation is to go down to Egypt. You desperately want to depart, but you must realize that your increase will come by staying where you are. For Isaac, the hundredfold increase was found upon the famine of yesterday. The boughs of the trees will once again be found with blooms, and the corn that wilted and wasted in the fields shall surge to life with bountiful supply.

“Do not think famine, or talk famine. Lift up your eyes so that you may experience the plenty, for the plenty shall indeed replace famine. For right where you are is right where I have placed you, and that is where you will flourish—not in Egypt. BE STILL!”

YOUR INVESTMENT IS NOT IN VAIN

You suffered the loss of an investment that you have poured into, but the Lord is not
talking here today of a financial investment. He is speaking this word to you. You have invested in someone. That someone has been proud against the Lord and had a negative change of attitude. They have forgotten their roots and have violated your confidence and your dependence upon them.

“Be aware that I am also aware. I see, and I know. You are not to fret or forget that what I have promised I will perform. Your heart shall rejoice again. These matters are in My hands.”

MISDIRECTED GRIEF

“You have been grieving over someone that I have deliberately removed from your life. You could not see what I could see, nor could you hear what I was hearing. How long will you grieve over Saul? I have a David, and he will do all My counsel. He will do all that I have commanded. All you have known was Saul. When you see David, do not laugh, for he will not be what you expected; but he will be what I have directed. How long will you grieve? I am admonishing you this day to lift your eyes past the present grief and simply believe! This one that I have chosen for you is far different from what you would expect, but he has the heart, the skill and the ability to grow with you. He will protect your interests and hold up your hands in the day of battle. Prepare your mind now to not look for the things you are used to looking for, or you will miss him. My anointing is already on him for this season.”

LAND TRANSFER

A tract of land is going to come into your possession. It will be a gift. The possibilities will be limitless, but Holy Spirit says He will give you direction upon possession of it. You were not even expecting it, but this word will make much more sense to you by October.

A CONFUSED SON

You are a pastor and an effective minister. You and your wife are grieved and burdened for a son that is showing signs of gender confusion. This son is uniquely talented and extremely gifted, but a seed of deception was sown into him early. This confusion has produced a wrong perception of who he is, as well as his destiny. The Lord would have you know that he will pull through this, and your worry and uncertainty will not continue. There is one coming into his life who will be the source Holy Spirit uses to bring him into alignment with his identity. It will be the exact right time, and the exact one I have sent, to bring truth and healing to him. It will settle him, and thereby, settle you and your wife in the process.

“I have My hand upon him, and you know that I do. I have proved Myself to you many
times. This will take some time, but in time you will see My faithfulness.”

LOVE NEVER FAILS

“Just because the marriage failed does not mean that you are a failure. It simply means it failed. My plan for you did not fail when your marriage did. I know your heart, and I know the way you have chosen. It is the way of honor and kindness. You have preserved your dignity as well as your husband’s. Love covers a multitude of sin. Look forward, there is love awaiting you once again. I will remember you in that day, and you will recall this word to you. It will bring peace and hope to you!”

FAR AWAY PLACES

“You would never have chosen to relocate so very far away. You would never have
chosen that country to rebuild your life, but it, indeed, is the door I am opening. You have not even considered this opportunity because it had not presented itself to you. These people will become your people, and you will be a defender. Your gifting will be a wall to which they cling. You will never have this opportunity where you reside now. I will give you a heart for them. You will find much love and acceptance. You will know this opportunity, for it will present itself in the eighth month, the month of August—a time of new beginnings for you.”

MISTAKEN OPPORTUNITY

You have come into a large sum of money, and it is indeed a blessing from the Lord. However, you are going to be confronted with what seems to be a great opportunity for investment, but it is not an opportunity.

“It is a distraction. You must listen to My Holy Spirit. Hold fast to what you have. Do not be anxious. Do not be impetuous. I will guide you with My eye, and you will have great peace, which you presently do not have.”

A SANCTUARY COUNTRY <NB>

I keep hearing from the Lord, “Jordan, the land bordering Israel.”

Jordan shall be visited. It will endure a shaking, but it shall, unexpectedly, become a
sanctuary country. Jordan, you will be remembered by the Lord, and you will be an
important instrument in His hand. Remember, you will become a sanctuary country!

SMOOTH OPERATOR

You have been so lonely and even insecure regarding your future. Recently, someone
has entered your space, and it certainly has boosted your hope and self-confidence.
There has been limited contact, and you desire a deeper relationship. This is a word
of caution from Holy Spirit because of His love for you and the prayers of many who love you. This word is a confirming word to you for you have already begun to feel uneasy and question the relationship. If you pursue this relationship, it will be as though you are embracing a snake. The poison from this union will affect you, your well being, as well as destroy the relationship with your family that you love and cherish in your life. It will be an embarrassing mistake. He has covert intentions. Temptation is usually connected to serpents.

“So be aware, I have chosen a compatible companion for you. Wait on the Lord.”

WEAVING A WEB

I see a pastor’s chair on a church platform, and underneath his chair, is a series of webs. Someone, or some consolidated effort, seeks to spin things against the man of God. You have a very strong anointing, and for some time, you have been sensing this drag upon your ministry. You will not be surprised when you learn the details, and you will learn them. So be prepared.

“I will bring it to light, and they will be exposed, says the Lord, and you will more than prevail. I am giving you and your wife a new network of friends that I will bring to you, including effective and insightful intercessors to pull the webs apart before they have an opportunity to establish their deceit and confusion again. Do not be moved by what you learn. It is already coming to naught, and you will triumph over it all.”

TRUMP AND HIS GENERALS <NB>

As I was riding along the highway last Thursday evening, I was engaged in conversation by cellphone with my administrator regarding budget matters. While I was listening to her answer a question, I heard Holy Spirit interrupt and ask, “How do you spell Truman?” I thought for a brief moment, and I said, “T-R-U-M-A-N.”

Then He asked me, “How do you spell Trump?” I said, “T-R-U-M-P.”

I immediately made the connection. He then proceeded to ask me, “Who did President Truman lean on to help the Jews get back into the Holy Land?” I said, “General Eisenhower.” The Lord then said to me, “I have raised up Trump and have given him generals to lean on to help him defend the Jews and keep them in their land. General Eisenhower brought them in, and these contemporary generals will keep them there. What was, will be again.”

He then asked me, “How do you spell Truth?” I spelled it, “T-R-U-T-H.”

The Lord said that He is changing the appetites of people. Instead of rejoicing in rumors and lies, the people will now become excited to hear truth again. They will love the truth and reject the lies, as well as the liars. This will not be true of everyone in every place; but a shift has already happened, and it happened last week.

“Truth had fallen in the streets, but I am lifting it up again; and it shall cause great rejoicing. I, the Lord, have done this by My own power, by My right arm of might and by My justice.”

Fresh insights on Jesus’ role in Creation (cont’d)

Posted on Monday, 16 January, 2017 by Richard Barker

Hands Holding World by Twobee In the previous post I claimed the ‘4th jigsaw piece’ of applying the ‘revisionist’ prophetic word on scripture harmonises not only with its foundational verses of Genesis 1:3 and John 1 but also with the scientific understanding of time and space!

I suggested readers may like to check that out for themselves in Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance of New Testament Greek words, and note different meanings, for ‘world’ – especially in Hebrews 1:2. In this post I’ll reveal my surprising discoveries…

What do you understand by ‘World’. Isn’t it usually synonymous with ‘globe’ or ‘the earth’?

My life-long interest in astronomy and science makes me think also of the solar system planetary and hypothetical interstellar worlds. Other valid concepts can be one’s personal ‘world’ of thoughts, emotions and activities; or of social, cultural interests eg. the world of fashion.

Previously, I told what happened after mulling over Jesus Christ’s role in Creation and commenting upon my re-blog of a physicist’s article about dark matter and energy. I was prompted to reach for my spade and start digging into the New King James’ and New International versions of verse 3 in the Book of Hebrews’ opening chapter. What I didn’t tell was the stunning gem shining from the central column of my Study Bible right at the start of that chapter.

That prize find opened up a whole new world!

Courtesy of Thomas Nelson Bibles the NKJV Hebrews 1:1-2 subhead and text reads:

God’s Supreme Revelation

1 God, who at various times and in various ways spoke in time past to the fathers by the prophets, ²has in these last days spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds;

My Study Bible has two notes for this: ‘at various times’, ‘or in many portions; ‘worlds’ or ages; Grk aiones, aeons’. The second also applies to ‘worlds’ in Hebrews 11:3, viz:

³By faith we understand the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made from things which are visible.

The note against ‘framed’ reads: ‘Grk ‘katartizo’ to arrange, set in order, adjust, complete what is lacking, make fully ready, repair, prepare’.

Clearly, any reader would easily understand that the Almighty made the planets and starry worlds – but ‘aeon’ isn’t the same. It means ‘Time’. SO just what did it mean to Jesus’ first disciples, those who’d personally witnessed and recorded revelations from and about the One who existed in God before time began? (The creative declaration of His personal power in creating the universe is considered in this post.)

NOW, the Oxford English Dictionary has two definitions for ‘Aeon’ (US. Eon), viz: ‘a very long period of time’ and ‘a major division of time in geology, subdivided into eras’.

Before we dig into that, here’s the Greek Interlinear Bible’s Hebrew 1:2

Greek Interlinear Bible – Hebrews 1:2 (click/drag to enlarge)

Copied from the Textus Receptus, it literally reads: ‘On last-ones of-the days these talks (speaks) to-us in son whom He-places (he appoints) tenant (enjoyer of the allotment) of-all through whom and (also) the eons He-makes.’

Strongs’ has the following for ‘worlds’ as it appears throughout the New Testament, as listed numerically according to the Greek alphabet, parts of which I’ve emphasised:

165 – ‘aeon’ from same root 104 ‘aei’ [duration, ‘ever’…regularly…always]: property of an age..perpetuity. By impl the world; spec (Jewish) a Messianic period – age, course, eternal, (for) ever (~more), (beginning of the) world (began, without end) cf 5550 ‘kronos’ – a space of time, thus distinguished from ‘kairos’, an occasion, set or proper time, season, time.
2889 – ‘kosmos’: orderly arrangement, by implication the world in a wide or narrow sense, including its inhabitants lit or fig.
3625 – ‘oikoumene’: land (the terrene part of the globe); spec Roman empire – earth world.
1093 – ghay: a region or solid part of the whole terrene globe (incl occupants), country, land, world.

Thus, the original documents of the New Testament display a clear difference of definition between periods of time and areas of the earth – going even beyond ‘time and space’ to an organised ‘system’, which implies inherent intelligence, either of internal or external nature and of divine rather than human design.

We know from history that the ancient Greek philosophers had made definite distinctions between material and immaterial aspects of our existence – space and time! And it is not so surprisingly made by writers of the NT – YET Christendom may have missed much in translating the Word of God!

Now you need to know, in blogging a month ago On Pivotal Prophecies Now Coming Into Play, of which one was my Exploding Bible of 2011, I’d checked the literal NT text of the wheat and tares parable in Matthew 13 and was amazed at one word in verse 38 (Jesus’ explanation “The field is the world…”), which reads:

matthew-13_38-39-in-greek ‘World’ appears twice in English, but the ORIGINAL HAS TWO DIFFERENT WORDS! These are ‘kosmos’ and ‘aionos’ – huh!! The literal rendition of vv 38 and 39 reads:

‘The yet field is the SYSTEM (world) the yet ideal seed these are the sons of-the kingdom the yet bearded-darnels are the sons of the wicked-one the yet enemy the-one sowing them is the thru-caster (adversary) the yet harvest together-finish of the eon is the yet reapers messengers are.’

There’s a clear allusion to the future and processes/action (‘yet’) and a deliberate, strong use by the Lord Jesus Himself of a distinction between time and space. Surely He must have known what He was talking about, especially in view of His role in Creation! (See next post’s PS.)

Also, check the occurrences of ‘time’ (aeon), ‘space’ (oikoumene) and ‘system’ (kosmos) in the NT and you’ll find only a few refer to actual land or space, whereas the majority refer to ‘system’, with ‘time’ as second most frequent. In the OT there are far fewer uses of the variants of Hebrew ‘world’, practically all of which mean the physical land and half a dozen refer to portions or perpetuity of time.

If you’re still with me, enlarge this copy of my Strongs’ in which I had fun colour-coding the scripture references (‘time’ in orange, ‘space’ in green and ‘system’ in yellow).

‘World’ in Strongs’ Exhaustive Concordance (click/drag to enlarge)

Conclusion

In our appreciation of holy scripture we should seriously consider the possibility of Jesus having given his disciples deep insights into the nature of the realms of time and matter, especially in view of their acknowledging His Lordship over and role in Creation.

Prophetic word on the great urgency of these End-times

Posted on Saturday, 7 January, 2017 by Richard Barker

Another ‘timely’ word like ‘The White Horse’ brought by Chris Bennett via UK Prophetic Words and “giving God all the glory”, and which sparks my spirit (emphases added):

There is So Little Time Left Before the Marriage of the Bride and the Lamb

I saw a large clock ticking loudly. Unlike many large clocks, there were three hands indicating hours, minutes, and seconds. The hour hand stood straight up. The minute hand stood almost as straight. The second hand moved everything into that final minute before midnight. “The clock has passed the hours. It has passed the minutes. It is down to the last few seconds.” said the Lord. “So little time left before the marriage of the Bride and Groom. So many guests still to accept their invitations”.

“TIME TO GO INTO THE HIGHWAYS AND BYWAYS TO INVITE WHOEVER YOU FIND THERE TO ATTEND THE WEDDING. TIME TO TAKE TO THE STREETS TO TELL A HURTING PEOPLE ABOUT ME! TIME TO STOP PROCRASTINATING AND TIME TO START DOING THE WORK OF AN EVANGELIST!

“WHEN WILL MY PEOPLE REALISE THE LATENESS OF THE HOUR? WHEN WILL THEY LISTEN TO MY PROPHETS? WHEN WILL THEY UNDERSTAND THE URGENCY OF THE TIMES? “

2 Timothy 4:1-5

“I charge you therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all long-suffering and teaching. For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap up for themselves teachers; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.”

Chris Bennett 2 Jan’17

On the changing of earthly time to meet heaven’s timecale

Posted on Friday, 23 December, 2016 by Richard Barker

Thank you to UK Prophetic Words for what is, in my humble opinion, another significant word from the Lord on Time in connection with these End-times:

Time is short.

THE TIME HAS CHANGED AND YOU NOW NEED TO LIVE IN A TOTALLY NEW UNDERSTANDING OF MY ETERNAL TIMESCALE

The Lord says:

“Be aware that the time has changed in my dealings upon the Earth. The eternal timescale already set from before the foundation of the Earth has moved forward significantly and it is now in the last minute of this present age. Get ready as never before because I am about to bring the final shaking upon the nations of the earth that shall usher in the full revealing of my Bride, the glorious church, and open up the heavens for the return of my Son. My kingdom of righteousness, peace and joy is being established as the Kingdom above all kingdoms and shall welcome her King of kings and Lord of lords. It is the time to align your lives with the life of my Spirit. To change your mindset from an earthbound limited thinking to a heavenly, eternally focused thinking where all things are possible by the power and wisdom of your God. Be ready, take your stand. Do not fear but lift your eyes heavenward, rejoice continually, for the Lord your God in the midst of you is mighty to save and to deliver his people.”

PRAYER ALERT: for Russia and against co-ordinated attacks

Posted on Thursday, 22 December, 2016 by Richard Barker

This repeated call to pray against attacks and for Russia were posted by Veronika West on Tuesday – note her clarification.:

1st:

WATCH AND PRAY; CO-ORDINATED ATTACK!

‘This afternoon as I was driving down the motorway suddenly I saw a plane crashing into the sea, and I heard the Father say,

“Daughter PRAY, For Satan has unleashed a Spirit of death and destruction in this hour, PRAY AND PLEAD THE BLOOD against a coordinated attack by the HAND of the enemy”!

‘Immediately as I began to pray, I saw in the spirit a highly sophisticated, organised and coordinated attack by the enemy that would take place both …on land and in the air, I saw that many lives could be lost. I believe this attack can be exposed and thwarted by the power of Prayer and pleading the blood of Jesus.

‘I DO NOT POST THESE THINGS TO BRING FEAR BUT TO BRING FORTH VICTORY OVER EVERY WEAPON OF THE ENEMY.

‘WE CRY “MERCY IN JESUS”.’

See Veronika’s earlier call – Pray: The Submarines Are Coming!

2nd:

PRAYER ALERT; WATCH! PAY ATTENTION TO RUSSIA; THE BEAR HAS BEEN BACKED INTO A CORNER AND WILL NOW STRIKE BACK WITH GREATER FORCE AND UNRELENTING POWER”!

‘Yesterday the Holy Spirit stopped me in my tracks and instructed me to PRAY FERVENTLY AND URGENTLY FOR THE NATION OF RUSSIA.

‘Now as I listened to the Holy Spirit I heard these words,

“DAUGHTER A DIVINE SHAKING, SUDDEN SHIFTING AND STRATEGIC RE-POSITIONING IS NOW TAKING PLACE IN THE NATION OF RUSSIA, FOR THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH ARE BEING ALIGNED WITH HEAVEN’S TIME, WATCH! FOR THE BEAR HAS BEEN BACKED INTO A CORNER AND WILL NOW STRIKE BACK WITH EVEN GREATER FORCE AND UNRELENTING POWER. SEE! A SPIRIT OF HATRED AND VENGEANCE HAS BEEN UNLEASHED UPON THE EARTH AND SEEKS TO OCCUPY AND RULE WITH AN IRON FIST, BUT I TELL YOU WATCH! FOR THE BEAR WILL NOW RISE UP ON ITS HIND LEGS AND IT WILL COME DOWN QUICKLY, SUDDENLY AND POWERFULLY AGAINST THE ONE THE WORLD CALLS ISIS”, says God.

“LOOK! FOR THE RISE OF THE EAGLE AND THE BEAR WILL BE SEEN ACROSS THE NATIONS AS THE TWO COME TOGETHER IN STRENGTH AND IN VISION TO BRING THE BEAST OF THE EAST TO ITS KNEES. NOW DO NOT LEAN ON YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND DO NOT QUESTION MY WAYS NOR MY WILL, FOR MY WAYS ARE NOT YOUR WAYS NOR MY WILL YOUR WILL, FOR I WILL HAVE MY WAY, AND MY WILL SHALL BE ESTABLISHED UPON THE EARTH, WATCH! PAY ATTENTION! MY GOVERNING HAND IS NOW MOVING SUDDENLY, QUICKLY AND WITHOUT WARNING IN THE EARTH!”

“MY TRUTH, RIGHTEOUSNESS, UNITY, MERCY AND PEACE WILL NOW GO FORTH TO REBUILD THE BROKEN BRIDGES BETWEEN THE NATION OF RUSSIA AND THE NATION OF AMERICA, FOR SURELY I TELL YOU THE ARM OF THE BEAR AND THE EYE OF THE EAGLE WILL COME TOGETHER AS ONE AND THE HEAD OF THE UNCIRCUMCISED GIANT SHALL BE DECAPITATED, YES, THE HEAD OF THIS SNAKE SHALL BE CUT OFF AND CAST INTO THE FIRE”.

“WATCH! FOR THIS SHALL TAKE PLACE QUICKLY, SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. NO LONGER WILL MY JUSTICE AND MERCY TARRY, EVEN NOW MY SPIRIT OF VINDICATION IS MOVING, SHAKING AND SHIFTING THE NATIONS, LISTEN! FOR A BATTLE CRY OF VICTORY AND FREEDOM WILL SOON BE HEARD ACROSS THE EARTH”, says God.’

Saving the Present

Posted on Wednesday, 7 December, 2016 by Richard Barker

Continuing our on-going foray into the nature of Time (and space) with another most informative summary and discussion of principles by Mekhi and participants, I’m reminded of Apostle Paul’s brief remarks about his own extra-dimensional experience, as recorded at 2 Cor 12 (Ha! – where else in view of my personal ‘212’ connection/experience, as in Reflection upon First Sundays in Advent).

Paul writes, “I know a man in Christ who 14 years ago – whether in the body or out of the body I don’t know, God knows – was caught up to the third heaven. And I know that this man…was caught up into paradise and heard utterances beyond the power of man to put into words, which man is not permitted to utter…”

Rationalising The Universe

Two months ago I posted on how the theory of Special Relativity refutes the idea of a flow of time or a universal present moment. You can read that post here.

Today as promised I put forward the arguments from modern-day Theoretical Physics which seek to push back and restore our intuitive notion of an objective passage of time and a universal now.

Two of these arguments come from, no surprises here – Quantum Mechanics (quantum theories and relativity theories have always been bitter rivals) however an argument can also be produced from General Relativity – Special Relativity’s big brother. I will present these arguments as briefly and as concisely as possible, but as we all know the workings of theoretical physics are far from simple so I hope the advanced readers amongst will not seek to crucify me too much over my wording at times. If you are so…

The coming sychronisation of heaven’s and earth’s clocks

Posted on Thursday, 1 December, 2016 by Richard Barker

Coming the day after I’d briefly commented upon having heard back in 2009 “This is All about to be fulfilled”, these two dreams recounted by Veronika West are, in my humble opinion, quite exceptional:

“WATCH! HEAVEN’S TIME IS NOW MOVING UPON THE HANDS OF EARTH’S CLOCK”

v_west-heaven_earth-time

‘First Dream….Two nights ago I had a very short dream where I saw 12 Wells being unlocked and Mighty Rivers gushed forth from the mouths of these 12 Wells, then I saw 12 different Mantles being released from Heaven and of the 12 mantles that I saw, I only heard 4 being named in my dream, I heard heaven whisper, “Elijah, Esther, Joseph and Jehu”, then I saw 12 baskets over flowing with bread and then 12 Large Pottery Jars full of Wine.

‘Second Dream…I was standing on the axis of the Earth, I could see some of the far off and distant planets of the solar system, it was breathtakingly captivating and beautiful!!

‘As I stood on the axis of the Earth’s surface suddenly a large pole that had many arrows pointing in different directions came out of the ground, as I looked at the arrows I noticed each arrow had the Name of Nation written upon it, and I noticed there was a large clock sitting at the top of the pole, but the Clock seemed to be standing still, but as I continued to watch the clock, suddenly the small second hand began to move very fast, and then the minute hand began to move, and then the hour hand moved. As I watched all three of the hands they began to move very quickly around the face of the large clock, suddenly all three hands stopped at the number 12, Immediately I heard these words,

“THE TIME-PIERCING SWORD IS GOING FORTH TO TURN AND SHIFT THE FACE OF THE NATIONS, FOR HEAVEN’S TIME IS MOVING UPON THE HANDS OF EARTH’S CLOCK, WATCH FOR THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH ARE NOW PERFECTLY ALIGNING WITH HEAVEN’S TIMING”!

‘Then suddenly the arrows on the pole began to move violently around and around, as I watched closely one by one the arrows flew off the pole and each arrow flew into the ground like a stake, I watched as arrow after arrow they penetrated the ground until I saw 12 perfectly lined stakes, I looked again and I could see the 12 Names of Nations now standing in perfect alignment with one another, and I saw the Names of 3 specific Nations, Australia, America and the United Kingdom.

“Stakes became Ancient Gates”
‘THEN SUDDENLY, I saw the stakes in the ground turn and transform into what looked like ancient Gates, now 12 Gates stood before me, each Gate had the Name of a Nation upon it, as I looked at the Gates, I could see 12 Keys. Then suddenly I heard the deep sound of a shofar and out of the heavens came 12 bright lights, I watched closely as one by one the bright lights approached the 12 Gates.

‘Then I heard the words,

“Behold, These are My Twelve Commissioning Apostles and Prophets!”

‘After hearing these words I saw what looked like 12 High Priests wearing crowns upon their heads, each Apostle/High Priest took hold of a key and opened the Ancient Gate and walked through onto the other side.

‘In the dream, I followed closely behind one of the High Priests as he entered through one of the Ancient Gates, and there on the other side of the gate I saw men and woman, some were laying prostrate on their faces, while others were on their knees, they looked like they had been waiting and praying, then I saw the Apostle/High Priest begin to put his hand on their foreheads, he took a small vessel shaped like a horn from under his robe and he began to pour out a golden oil , I watched as he poured the oil over each of those that were kneeling down.

‘Then I heard him say,

“In the Name of Jesus Christ you are Anointed, Appointed and Commissioned as Kings and High Priests carrying all the Authority of Heaven, Now ARISE and Go forth into all the Nations of the Earth and Establish the Kingdom of Heaven!”

‘The Dream ended!

‘Firstly, I believe this dream is multi-layered and my deep sensing is that there is still more to come, however we prophesy in part, but here is what I believe Father is showing us for NOW!

‘The number 12 I believe is significant, as it implies structural beginning or governmental perfection and rule. We know that the nation of Israel comprised of twelve tribes, and it represented a physical type of God’s government on earth. There were also twelve apostles that were chosen by Christ to serve as the foundation for His Church, as well as the kingdom of God. Twelve thousand from each tribe of Israel constitute the 144,000 in the Book of Revelation.
Matt. 10:1-7
Luke 22:29-3
Revelation 7 and 14

‘Furthermore I believe prophetically that the Nations of the Earth are now being perfectly Aligned with Heaven’s Time, I submit we have entered into a Time in History where we are going to see the greatest of Shifting, Sifting and Shaking among the Nations of the Earth. There is a divine reordering and rearrangement that taking place among the Nations, the government of Heaven is being established on earth, I also believe there is a coming a powerful ‘Commissioning Anointing’ that is going to be released to those that have been Waiting and Expectant, and also to those that have hearts that are Open, Ready and Seeking for His Will and His Kingdom purposes to be Established on the earth.

‘I submit the Compass of Heaven is now directing and re-routing the Sons and Daughters of God in this hour, for they will Walk in God’s Perfect Timing and in the Spirit of Unity they will be of one Vision and one purpose, they will be Radical in their Obedience and Sacrifice, this is the Rising Remnant of Radical Reformers, “Called for Such a Time as This”!

‘I prophesy: THIS IS A TIME OF DIVINE RE-ORDERING AND RE-ARRANGEMENT FOR KINGDOM ALIGNMENT, HEAVEN’S RULE AND GOVERNMENT IS BEING ESTABLISHED UPON THE EARTH, AND AS GOD’S LEGISLATORS WE ARE BEING SUPERNATURALLY SENSITISED TO HEAVEN’S TIMING AND HEAVEN’S AGENDA, I PROPHECY IN THIS SEASON GOD IS RESETTING AND RE-CALIBRATING THE INNER WORKINGS OF OUR SPIRITS AND OUR HEARTS ARE BEING PERFECTLY SYNCHRONISED WITH THE HEART-BEAT OF GOD FOR THE NATIONS.’

The Timelessness of Jesus Christ, by Tim Shey

Posted on Wednesday, 26 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

My thanks go to ‘high plains drifter’ Tim Shey somewhere out on The Road for this excellent contribution to a recent post, which warrants re-publishing in its own right.:

The Road blog cropped-neskuchnoye-field-1912

The Road – obedience is better than sacrifice

‘When I think on the word “saved” (as in, “I was saved twenty or thirty years ago” or “when were you saved?” and so on), as a Christian, it is probably an incorrect word or concept. To be saved implies the past. The Lord Jesus Christ is past, present and future. As a Christian, I abide in Christ right here, right now.

‘Let’s say someone surrendered their life to Christ a number of years ago. This is the BEGINNING of being connected with the timeless of Jesus Christ. As we take up our cross and die daily, our body and soul life are put to death, so that the spiritual life within us (Christ) grows stronger and stronger every day. As the passions of the body and soul life dies, time dies. Think of the sinful, physical body as shackled to time: the physical body is born on a certain date (time), it lives for 85 years (time) and then dies on a certain date (time).

‘There is a point in physical time when someone surrenders to timelessness—the Lord Jesus Christ. Worldly people and lukewarm Christians are still bound to time; spiritual Christians are timeless.

‘The power and beauty of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ is that that timeless event (it defied time and space) pierced human time and presented us with the possibility of living a life connected to timelessness and sinlessness (abiding in Christ)—if we act in faith and surrender our lives to Jesus Christ.

‘1 John 1:7: “But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.”

‘The above scripture absolutely implies, not some historical event (time), but the timelessness of Jesus Christ. To an unbeliever, the phrase “and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin” is totally insane: the death of Jesus Christ happened over two thousand years ago (time). To a Christian, what happened at Calvary is happening right here right now (timelessness). If we walk in the light (abide in Christ daily), the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us (not cleansed us) from all sin.

‘Enoch walked with God and then God took him because (after many years of obeying the Lord through proper blood sacrifices [dying to self] and believing in the future Messiah) he walked in timelessness and eventually timelessness (God) took him. Enoch was no longer shackled by time.

‘Prophets are very timeless because the timeless Holy Ghost inspires them to speak of future events as if they are happening right here right now.

‘Time to stop writing.’

Timing of listening to ‘Time’

Posted on Wednesday, 26 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

G’day readers.

How did your day start as you got under way? Do you notice time seems to have different speeds when you’re getting up? Sometimes I have to get a move on to beat the clock and be ready at a specific time. One day ‘hare’ minute-hand scoots along as tho’ haring around the ‘milestone’ circle – but another day it may saunter as though half awake, and ‘tortoise’ hour-hand lies huddled in its shell.:

My childhood intro to time and different speeds!

Soon after starting my search for ‘truth’ when a young man, I read that time’s related to consciousness. So I noticed its measure may depend upon alertness.

Decades later and living at a more leisurely pace I notice this puzzles me. For example, in the bathroom I’m usually wide awake when swiping a razor around my face – rarely am I drowsy and, if needing to be on the move, I keep an eye on my watch as it sneakily heads for a deadline.

I’ve noticed differences on some days between how much I can get done in that early half-hour. Maybe my wrist-watch speeds up or down, or maybe it’s simply all down to my body-clock. Even so I’d agree with Justin Abrahams’ claim that, of its own nature, time does go at different speeds – maybe I get my own ‘time bubble’ in the bathroom! But I’d much prefer to learn the practicalities of his claim to having done a two-hour wash, wax and polish of his car in half an hour!!

After posting the first announcement about Justin’s podcast on engaging Time in February I found the timing of my listening to it was intriguing!

podomatic-justin-abraham-time2 My first attempt at listening on my phone failed to work. Not having done this on my phone before I found out later that the talk did download but I needed a better ‘ap’. Anyway, it was much better this way because it grabbed my attention when I was able to give it. Had it worked it would have distracted me from a personally relevant event at the conference I was going to.

At least a couple of aspects of what Justin teaches on that podcast were relevant to that event as well as to other recent things. First, I’m amused I’d been thinking of something from dim, distant days – “He who grieves most, grieves for wasted time”. It was one of many such quotations that had been used to prompt me to search seriously for the truth and meaning of life just before the famous Beatles turned into hippies and then got into transcendental mediation.

A Few Thoughts on ‘Time’

I hope anyone who followed my suggestion to listen to Justin’s podcast (here) didn’t find his excited assertions too daunting. Perhaps his approach is too ‘off-the-wall’ for some, yet his experiences and insights are worthy of due consideration and reflection.

Those of ‘glued-on’ adherence to the literal Bible text and fixed interpretation, according to whichever adopted translation is cleaved to, may have difficulty with his challenging but Biblically-based concepts. I very much like his familiarity with scientific concepts, from which most Christians shy away. It’s something I’d urge my brethren to get to grips with in order to marvel even more at Father’s handiwork.

Without being in any way dismissive, however, it would be interesting to see evidence for Justin’s claims regarding postage dates. Also, as above, I’m ambitious to clean, wax and polish the car in such an unexpected short time-span as he experienced for two! 🙂

I recalled what Charles Shamp taught on the prophet Daniel travelling in time and seeing the stars at Jesus’ birth, thus leaving instructions on what the Magi should look for in the sky and why (Supermoon Monday’s ‘blood moon’ and The Age to Come refers).

Bobby Conner – Time Disappeared

Also, I was reminded of what Bobby Conner said in Bath city about ten years ago. After returning from a trip, he phoned his wife Carolyn from the airport to let her know when to expect him home. It’s usually well over an hour’s journey, so his thoughts turned to the Lord whilst driving. Only twenty minutes later Bobby came to the junction for the road leading to their house – total time: under half hour! Huh?

Miraculous, or a tall story? And is it Biblical?? My overview Eternity and Prophecy refer to three examples in scripture of time having been distorted and broken. And remember…

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no-one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end…

I know that whatever God does, it shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, and nothing taken from it, God does it, that man should fear before Him.

That which is has already been, and what is to be has already been; and God seeks an account of what is pursued [so that history repeats itself – Amplified Bible]. (Ecclesiastes 3:11 Amp; 14-15 NKJV)

Does the present really exist?

Posted on Tuesday, 25 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Physicist Mekhi’s scientific definition of ‘now’ augments my previous post on Justin Abraham’s outline of relativity and time. Also, the diagram is helpful in illustrating his description of slices of time and ‘before the beginning’, or pre- and post-Genesis. Don’t overlook the ensuing discussion from readers.

Rationalising The Universe

Firstly a warm welcome to all new followers; we were fortunate enough to be featured on WordPress Discover recently which gave a wonderful flurry of new support. We endeavour to stay in touch and interact with as many of you as possible; and hope that science and mathematics continues to be an area of interest for everyone. The pool of human knowledge is after-all our most valuable asset, which we share collectively.

Now for our second exploration of time (if you missed the first you can find it here). The theory of relativity is our best theory of the macroscopic world. The theory of Special Relativity was introduced by Einstein in 1905 brought about a wide range of insights into the nature of reality including length contraction, time dilation, a universal speed limit of the speed of light and the relativity of simultaneity. It is the latter that shall…

On engaging and governing Time – in the first 15 minutes…

Posted on Monday, 24 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Justin Paul Abraham (credit Gloryrevolution.net)

…examples of time ‘miracles’ and outlines on time travel, time ‘slices’, time ‘bubbles’ and bending of time popped up in Justin Abraham’s teaching upon Time (see introduction). My near transcription/notes of the first quarter hour is below – parentheses and emphases of topics are mine.

Now and then he jokes with his audience about getting their brains ‘fried’, BUT they’re in good company! It happens to experts too! Mathematicians and scientists continue to be puzzled over the profound paradoxes of quantum physics. Phil Mason opens chapter three ‘Time and the Quantum’ of his book Quantum Glory (2010) as follows.:

A number of scientists who are kept awake at night perplexed by the counter-intuitive world of quantum mechanics have devised additional experiments in order to probe more deeply the bizarre attributes of the sub-atomic world…we need to note that these additional discoveries will totally mess with our heads concerning the nature of time itself…a significant key to understanding the quantum enigma hinges upon the issue of time as it relates to quantum space.

Justin relates Biblical prophecies to the science of relativity and quantum physics but first sets the scene to his in-depth lecture with scriptural backing. (Hence my inserting the full text of Ephesians 5:16 after Lion Bites’ Heavenly Time-Management in A prophetic word from God about Time….). So let’s dig in…

His teaching is based upon his recent course material on ‘new creation’ plus personal and others’ experience (eg his wife Rachel, Ian Clayton, Milly Bennitt – as here, here and here – and on facebook). Claiming this session will be very helpful and change our lives (as with his family), Justin begins,

“This is a truth for our generation, because the Bible says, ‘Redeem the times…’ (Eph 5:16-17). So we can redeem time…’Redeem’ means to take (back) power from another…

“You, the ecclesia (church) are to govern – so is time governing you or are you governing time? ‘cos time is a substance!…When you ask someone what time is, not many people know what time is because we’re passing through it.

“Everybody used to think since Newton’s era that all of us are all in the same time at the same time and that time’s the same everywhere…what Einstein found was that time is relative, that time exists only for you as a person.

“He said the perception of past, present and future is “a stubbornly persistent illusion!” So have you ever been in a moment where you’re having a brilliant day but someone’s having a wasted day? So – they’re in a different time!

“It’s a different time on another planet to what it is here ‘cos it depends on your definition of time what time it is…Let’s say you’re on another planet around another sun, what time would it be? How would you define time there?

“I didn’t know time isn’t moving at the same time everywhere…(refers to film ‘Interstellar’ as illustrating how time works.) Basically, time’s a stretchy fabric and you can shape time and stretch it so that we can do anything in time – time can bend – it’s a substance called the 4th dimension (space being the 3rd).

“Time is actually a substance that we can redeem the power of.

“Now in the Beginning Adam was in Eden and there he had what I call ‘rich’ time – there was no sweat, he was energised and everything’s done in rest and ease…So we’re meant to live out of Eden where there’s enough time to do what you need to do.

“So can time be stretched so you do in one hour what’s normally done in two? Can time be bent? Can time be stopped? Can you step out of time? These are what I want to look at…

“Your brain might already be frying but you need to learn about it, because everyone in this room’s got a relationship with time!

“What I want to do in this session is redefine your relationship with time so it becomes our servant and you govern time so it always works for you – and you have time miracles!!

(Justin claims to have had some ‘crazy’ time miracles since the Lord started teaching him about time but cites three, two of which Royal Mail time stamps are empirical evidence. – where somethings were sent and stamped as from the future but manifested before that in the recipient’s ‘present’ time – ie. had already been done beforehand, yet proven to come from the future and the goods thus obtained before the causative action!

He says that news was posted on facebook and someone in the Royal Mail replied it’s a miracle because “the whole system is based upon those time-stamps”! Also, another’s response was that since childhood the Lord had allowed them to travel in time and see events. This reminds me of the Chinese street urchins who’d seen events recorded in the Bible before they’d heard about them: see Visions Beyond the Veil – God’s Revelation to Children of Heaven and Hel l by H.A. Baker.)

“It came from an encounter in heaven where I realised everyone arrived on time, although going at different speeds (gives example) – in the Kingdom time will fit what you want it to fit! The time doesn’t rule you, it expands depending upon how much space you need.

“The Bible says, ‘See that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but wise, redeeming the time because the days are evil’ (Eph 5:16)– ie. the days are ‘evil’, so since Eden we’re in ‘poor’ time…(As no-one else knew about this Justin invented his own terms for different kinds of time, and because…)

“The Lord’s been teaching me about time and showing me how different types of time can be in the same room…Ian Clayton would say to me “It’s strange: I’m getting a day’s work done in an hour now!”…I don’t understand it!

“It’s interesting when you have a time bubble someone can walk past you and not see it happening. (Cites personal examples of poor-time and rich-time distortion where energy is not lost.)

“If any man is IN Christ he is a new creation (2 Cor 5:17 and cf: Ian Cayton’s excellent teaching on what ‘in’ means: ie. ‘IN’: fully within Jesus’ whole being.) So you’re not from here, you’re not ‘terran’ as the earth’s going to pass away and you can’t define yourself as being from here…you’re born from above!

“God is looking for us to reveal Him, to become Sons so that we mirror Him in His divine essence – as we’ve born the image of earthly, so now we shall bear image of heavenly man. Now, if you’re in Him and He’s in you, what’s God’s relationship to time? He’s The Beginning and The End, the Alpha and Omega and He exists beyond time.

“It’s really interesting, all of time has already happened (according to science). So time in this era looks like a funnel post-Big Bang and then it’s made of ‘slices’ called space-time, which is like a loaf of bread! All of those slices already exist – all you’re doing is passing through your perception of where in the slice you are.

“This is why Moses could go back (to Creation); this is why John could go forwards (to see the New Jerusalem)…why David could pull the future into the past and have David’s Tent, which was the future era…why John could go right to the End and check a different time…why Isaiah could move forward in the timeline and say a virgin would give birth, and the suffering servant, the glory would come and that the earth will be transformed…

“So space-time exists and God’s in time and honours time and regards time as precious. The reason He invented it is so everything happens in its own space – that’s why we have space-time, time is not separate from space. They’re a grid we exist in, The reason He invented it is to allow, and we can enjoy, the richness of the moment – the alternative is that everything happens at the same time! – I know that’s strange to understand.

“God allows time but we’re not meant to be defined or limited by time – so we’re meant to know the times and seasons but it’s not about knowing which slice of time you’re in but of knowing The (appointed) Times, The Seasons…it’s about knowing where we are in the strand of DNA (spiral nature) that goes through time – the divine strand, the golden strand – knowing your place within it and your context within it and your relationship with time.

“So, we’re meant have an interesting relationship with it, to ‘taste the power of the Age to Come‘ – it’s a bigger creation than we’re in now and…it goes out like that (pointing)… we’re meant to ‘Taste’ of the power of the Age to Come, which means we pull from out of another creation (dimension?) backwards, which means time bleeds back.

“In Newton’s time we thought time was a river only going one way – we now know through quantum physics time it’s not going one way, it goes both ways (backwards and forwards) – it’s our perception of it that’s going one way! (Eg looking through telescope at light, that light in the past ‘knows’ you’re going to look at it and so it collapses.)

“If you didn’t look at it it would just be a wave pattern, but it ‘knew’ in the past that you were going to do it!! So you’re looking at something changes the past!!

“I know that’s hard to accept but I’m teaching quantum physics here but it’s the truth – it’s called ‘the observer effect‘ – you collapse wave patterns into photons (strictly speaking – photons into waves or else particles, depending upon methodology; even if experimentally delayed!!) by observing them BUT it goes back into the past! (see glossary in introductory post).

“So you’re already distorting time. When prophesying you’re decreeing the future shaping earth around the future – you’re future gazing! You’re answering the ‘phone call’ (Jer 33:3) into the future, your tasting the power of the Age to Come! It’s interesting as we approach that changeover more of its bleeding back. So we had little bits of ‘bleed-back’ – like Enoch …who completed ‘the ring’ for he lived out of the End at the Beginning. Same with John… as you approach that Age, the mount of bleed-back gets thicker.

“In other words, where it says in scripture that ‘heaven is drawing nigh’ – so when David had the Holy Spirit before Acts 2 (Holy Spirit coming in power upon Jesus’ disciples) he pulled out of the future and put it in his own time…he already had the Holy Spirit in the past even though He hadn’t been given – which means you can choose which time-slice you live out of.

“SO which era of Christianity, or Son-ship, are you from?

“This is how I bend time and change stuff around me: I’ve decided that I refuse to live in the time that I’m in! The heroes of the faith did not live in their own time…Elijah, Cuthbert, Columba, (mystic leaders of the Celtic Church)…Enoch lived out of a different time.

“Enoch went back into Eden before the cross had happened, because it had already happened, because Jesus was crucified before – outside of time! All of time’s encoded with the record of the Crucifixion because it happened before the foundation of the world (Rev 13:8). This is why the seven spirits (Isa 11:2) look omnipresent…

“If you think of this as a box called ‘The Beginning’ and then this bit outside it is ‘the before’. So there’s ‘The Beginning’ and ‘The Before’ …In the beginning, that’s when God created Wisdom and the other spirits (Isa 11:2), they exist there and that’s why they seem omnipresent, because they’re actually from a bigger dimension – but which dimension are you from?

“This is where it gets really interesting – that we were hidden in God in the Before the Beginning – so we actually exist as He is…This is why angels are different to us – they may be in different times depending on where they are in Creation…

“For example: as time’s like a fishing net and if you put a tennis ball in it the net wouldn’t be pulled much – that’s what gravity does. It bends time just a little bit like a light planet such as the moon, a heavy planet pulls the net and makes the days longer. So depending on which planet you live on, the days are a different length…(further explanation)

“So how do we move in time? As we spread into the Cosmos how will we define time?

“Remember all of Creation’s waiting for us (as Sons of God – Rom 8:19-22) which means, whether we accept this or not, earth’s just our cradle…where our infancy happened. We’ve got a Cosmic Mandate – ALL of Creation is waiting for the revelation of your Son-ship to free it from decay..(talks about immensity of the galactic ‘deep field’).

“I think God wants us to grow up! – He wants to be the definition – He’s the Chronometer -(NB: confirmation from Lion Bites prophetic word on Heavenly Time Management – which started this series!) – we come from Zion!

“The thing is, we’re all quantumly entangled into Him! This means we’re in Him and we exist in Him even though we exist here – that is where ground zero is for me….we don’t define ourselves by times or season because that’s to say the sun and moon govern us and we can only go as far as the headship we’re under. So do you define yourselves by them and want them, their influence, to be the governing body for you?

“And so God said to me,

“It’s time to master Time!”

Justin checked the meaning of ‘mastery’, diligently learned about the subject and noted, “Daniel saw that the antichrist, or the spirit that’s against the anointing of Christ, shall intend to change the set times and laws” (Dan 7:25). He then disclosed that,

“The first time I spoke about this I felt so bad I’d spoken on it that I sat down and said, ‘Lord I’m sorry, I must have gone too far’.

“And the Lord said, ‘If you don’t manage it, someone else will’.”

To hear what Justin says next listen to podcast at Podmatic/CoBH – Time.

On engaging and governing Time – introduction

Posted on Saturday, 22 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Our consideration of the convergence of scripture and modern science begins with this expanded version of a post published on 18 February 2016. We’ll learn how the theories of relativity and quantum physics – under-girded by the ‘queen of sciences’, mathematics – may match the supra-natural nature of God’s word in the holy Bible. Attention is drawn in particular to the important concept at the concluding section – last but not least!

This graphic is so apposite in view of my references to Time’s spiral nature, as in earlier posts on The Nature of Time and Eternity & Prophecy, as well as the mini-series on Time starting with Prophesy to 2014 and Talking to Time seems to work.

Most importantly I’d remind everyone that Jesus Christ is Lord of Time and so you may also like to read the prophetic word, “I Am The Lord Of Time”. Continue reading →

On eternity and prophecy

Posted on Wednesday, 19 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Re-published from this blog’s Cycles and Time hub as third background item for soon upcoming posts on the convergence of scripture and science:

In the beginning God, (He) created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. Then God said, “Let there be light!”, and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. (Genesis 1:1-4 NKJV)

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. (John 1:1-2 NKJV)

A few thoughts:

CREATION

‘In the Beginning…’ not only means God and Jesus and Holy Spirit existed at the start of time but also implies they existed before the Beginning. That is, the Holy Trinity exists outside the creation of our known four dimensions of space-time.

The Holy Bible is God’s revelation of His Story from the beginning to end of our created world, of specific historical actions and of events foretold but yet to take place.

ETERNITY

When Jesus unexpectedly burst – uninvited – into my life I realised that someone whom I’d thought of as only a historical personage, or supposed New Age Teacher, is still very much alive! His existence must, therefore, be outside our space-time continuum in a dimension beyond ours = heaven and eternity.

Since that life-changing night-time visitation in 1989 He’s blessed my with a hint of that supra-dimension:

AGE TO COME

Revival 1: Glory Stories tells about what I sensed from the Lord in Winchester and then in Bath city some years ago. The distinct impression was of the existence of the equivalent of a new book to be written beyond the Bible’s rear cover; ie. after the Book of Revelation. Maybe it exists as a thought in the Almighty’s mind before it’s eventually decreed and then comes into actual existence? (Rather like Abraham and the patriarchs ‘waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God’ – Hebrews 11:9-19.)

That is, this invisible, immaterial book would continue Revelation’s closing prophecy of the physical manifestation of a new earth and new heaven with the City of God. It could mean eternity will be merging into time, heaven coming to earth at long last – the ‘Age to Come’.

OR, maybe this is something the Lord will unravel and open for the ecclesia (Church) to learn about and understand?

TIME DISRUPTIONS

The following scriptures give examples of time being discontinuous, when it was:

Stopped – on that unique day when the sun and moon stood still as Joshua fought the Amorites and their allies (Joshua 10:12-14).
Went back – When king Hezekiah lay sick the Lord promised to lengthen his life by 15 years and gave as a sign the shadow of a sundial going backwards; or the sun’s rays were affected to bend the shadow (Isaiah 37:5-8).
Split – according to the fulfilment of the ’70-weeks’ prophecy the Lord gave Daniel, of which 1+62 weeks (years) were to be continuous until the arrival of Jesus. The final 7 weeks would follow at an unspecified time in the future (Daniel 9:20-25). It is this ‘end-time’ of 7 years that’s awaited with great anticipation and expectation.

PREDICTION

This comes by the unction of the Holy Spirit to prophesy and which conveys what’s on the Lord’s mind for His people at the present time or which He will bring about. As with Apostle John, maybe some OT and NT prophets were also able to enter the supernatural, eternal realm to perceive future events from that dimension? (See Prophecies & Visions hub.)

On cycles and the Bible

Posted on Wednesday, 19 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Re-published from this blog’s Cycles and Time hub as second background item for soon upcoming posts on the convergence of scripture and science:

Then God said, “Let there be light” and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from darkness. God called the light Day and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day. (Genesis 1:3-5)

In New Year 2012, a few weeks after launching this blog, I introduced Christian journalist William Koenig’s four-year investigation into the work of Eric Hadik, a leading financial markets technical analyst. (Bios: About William Koenig – Who is Eric Hadik?).

[This was simultaneous with the publication of Jonathan Cahn’s bestseller The Harbinger!]

Hadik built his knowledge upon W.D. Gann’s work on market cycle theories, based on his discoveries in the Bible, and applied to mathematical and geometrical principles!

After four years of closely following Hadik’s application of theories of cycles to natural and human events, Bill attested to having “found his calculations extremely accurate”.

Anyone wishing to check out this fascinating topic should read Eric’s trading bulletin Inside Track and his more recent website 40-Year Cycles. They contain informative articles on many types of cycles and check the accuracy of ‘cycle predictions’, eg. geological (earthquakes and volcanoes), scientific (including nuclear), financial markets, political, diplomatic or military matters!

Its January 2015 edition contains 40-Year Cycle: Euro 2015, which reports upon a 40-year cycle analysis and checked the accuracy of predictions made mid-2011. In view of recent, subsequent events (as here and here) it makes interesting reading!

Eric’s report Crash Cycles covers the effect of the 40-year Cycle upon the US economy.

After stating what cycles categorically are not, from a financial technician’s viewpoint, Eric defines them as follows:

What cycles ARE… is a measuring and projection of time assuming (as has been proven time and time again) that “history repeats itself”. However, do not expect history to repeat itself in the same fashion, at the same place, and in the same degree, as it did originally. (Cycles Intro)

BIBLICAL 40 DAYS & 40 YEARS

Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit in the wilderness for 40 days. After His resurrection Jesus appeared over a period of forty days to His first 120 disciples and taught them more about the Kingdom of God (Acts 1:3)!

Seven days after Noah entered the Ark it rained for 40 days and 40 nights. Moses sent leaders of each of the 12 tribes to spy out the Promised Land for 40 days. However, all except Joshua and Caleb rebelled against God’s directive to go into that land of milk and honey because giants were there. Consequently, God imposed a 40-year penalty of life in the desert for the generation of Moses’ compatriots (Numbers 14:28-35).

That episode clues as to the period defining a ‘generation’. It may be assumed 20 years of growth and adulthood in parenting children could be a definitive number. Numbers 14: 29 states only those aged 20 years or more, expect for Caleb and Joshua, will not enter the Promised Land but die in the desert. Only their children, that is all under 20 years of age, would enter and enjoy the new land. However, the later reiteration of the Lord’s anger against those rebels actually provides a fuller definition of ‘generation’ as being 40 years for,

He made them wander in the wilderness forty years, until all the generation of those who had done evil in His sight were gone. (Numbers 32:13 NIV)

In my opinion, we could therefore consider 40 year periods as being directly related to human activity rather than Godly activity. (Also see The Bible Study for more.)

An example of this application may be found in Eric Hadik’s introduction to the theory of cyclic activity throughout history, as summarised in The Natural Year on this blog.

Next, we’ll consider eternity and prophecy, including a prophetic word to physicists, just before looking at fascinating insights on how the scriptures are consistent with, relativity and quantum physics – or more properly: on how modern scientists are catching up with ancient, inspired literature from the Living God!

On the nature of Time

Posted on Tuesday, 18 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Re-published from Cycles and Time hub as first background item for upcoming posts on the convergence of scripture and science:

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.

“Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. ” (Revelation 1:8 and 17-18, NKJV)

Thank you Lord that you exist outside and inside Time – you are Always and Now! [Read prophetical word from Jesus, “I Am The Lord of Time”.]

In my humble opinion, time is non-linear.

Our analytical mind-sets think time is a straight line and this is endorsed by the standard use in mathematical graphs of time as the ‘x’ or horizontal axis, as in this GCSE maths graph. Like an ‘x’ axis, timelines list events in history – and we can use one for our own lives. After all, we live our lives in a sequence of events – one thing after another.

When observed in nature’s season and oceans, however, the passage of time-related activity is continuously periodic, that is, cyclical. So I regard time like a spiral because, when considered dynamically under the interaction of various influences, it’s just like a corkscrew being turned.

TIME SWINGS

Sine wave (credit Wikipedia)

Consider drawing a circle and the position of pencil, or finger, as you time the motion. Done this way it can be plotted on an ‘x-y’ graph. With ‘x’ as time and ‘y’ as position on paper, it produces a curve looking like a wave of water – known as a sine wave- as in this diagram.

I was fascinated to learn in school physics that the tides and pendulum swings of a clock are ‘simple harmonic motion’ (SHM), which can be expressed as a trigonometric function of an angle. The ‘sine’ function is used to model periodic phenomena such as oscillations eg. sound and light waves, the position and velocity of oscillators, sunlight intensity and day length, and average temperature variations throughout the year (Wikipedia ‘Sine’)

Have you stood on a beach at high or low tide and noticed how long the water sits there? Its level slowly starts changing but at mid-tide the water rushes to the other extreme. It floods in full flow only to stall and stop, and then return to repeat its action – and time and time again.

SHM and its geometrical depiction explains those difference in tidal speeds. Watch the brief video under ‘Occurrences’ in Wikipedia’s Sine Wave. It shows a wave as a curve of dashes being produced as a point on the circle’s circumference plots the waveform – but its own motion is screw-like, is it not?

TIME SPIRALS

Therefore, we can think of time like an invisible spiral turning like a corkscrew. Also, nature provides another excellent example – and it’s one that carries information – the DNA spiral, of which there are two in each molecule.

Let me explain some more with a simple analogy: on a spiral staircase we pass by different walls. If it’s in a castle turret there’d be a doorway on each floor and in the same vertical wall of the well. Regard this wall as a certain kind of event and note how it connects with us, or is relevant to us, at different times and levels.

Hence, various types of event can crop up in a cyclical pattern of repetitions at different levels and show some development has taken place. So it is in history and with God’s plans too, could we but be aware, or receive divine revelation.

CONFIRMATION

I’m amazed to learn that financial analyst and expert in the cyclical nature of markets, Eric Hadik, also describes time as a spiral. I’ve known about him since 2010 but, in collecting my previous material and updating to include the above maths, I once again visited his website and found this newer one, 40 Year Cycle. In its introduction to cycles Eric states,

…life (the markets, etc.) should be viewed as a spiral – constantly revolving in a circular pattern BUT never returning to exactly the same spot from which it came. It is progressing – forward & upward – even as it revolves in a type of circuit.

Continue reading about this periodic function of Time in Cycles and the Bible.

An example of heavenly time-management

Posted on Tuesday, 18 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

RJB That conjunction of ‘coincidences’ wherein the Lord urges us to align our time-management with His, made me review what’s in my mind’s ‘neural pipeline’. (See A prophetic word from God about time – and on time!)

Directly connected with it is the exciting fact that the spiritual operations behind true prophecy, and the latest scientific theories are converging.

So look out for a meeting of minds over revelation and the prophetic on the Christian net and maths, relativity, quantum mechanics and information theory on the scientific side…

I came off holiday wanting to blog right away about another fascinating ‘coincidence’.: my reading about the mathematical basis of the opening verses of Genesis and of the Gospel according to John – and what I met upon returning home on a scientific blog! This was to be followed by re-blogs of excellent articles on maths, quantum physics and time.

These will be from Rationalising The Universe, which has a growing readership and well-informed discussions. It was started by mathematician Joseph, who’s recently been joined by theoretical physicist Mekhi, whose special interests are relativity and time. Their blog also has the distinction of inclusion in WordPress’ selection of best blogs (Discover) and is succinctly described here. Learn more from their bios via the preceding links.

Those re-blogs, however, must first await re-publication of a couple of my past items on time, and re-posting remark mentioned at item 3 of post on ‘heavenly time-management’. (My comments in that point were upon Mekhi’s post, Does The Present Really Exist?)

By the way, I was honoured last month with this kind accolade from Glasgow Prophetic Centre: “We are so blessed by the amazing gift you have at ‘joining the prophetic dots’!”

Lastly, for another example of applying Father’s heavenly time-manager, see American Tim Shey’s contribution at the foot of A word from God about time – and on time!

A prophetic word from God about time – and on time!

Posted on Monday, 17 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Upon returning home last Wednesday, as Nina rested after surgery, I caught up with email. That day’s from Glasgow Prophetic Centre was extraordinary! It’s not the first time they’re on target personally but the precision this time is breathtaking on several counts, as in my appended notes. First, the prophetic words.:

LION BITES: HEAVENLY TIME-MANAGEMENT

I hear the Spirit of the Lord say:

“I rule time and it is not to rule you!”

The Lord is breaking off a rulership that time – and lack of – have had over your life. And He is bringing a heavenly alignment into timekeeping, diaries, schedules, cycles and sleeping patterns.

No longer will your time be swallowed up by unfruitful activity, as God begins to align your life to heaven’s calendar! This will create time for you to begin to wholeheartedly pursue the call of God on your life – and with plenty of time to do so!

He says to you,

“Bring your time before me and let me show what I actually want you to do and what I don’t want you to do. Let Me tell you who I really want you to meet and who I really don’t want you to meet. Time will no longer be your enemy but instead it will now empower you to fulfil My purposes for your life on the earth.”

So, bring your calendars, your diaries, your phones and your schedules before God and let Him do some work with you today. Time is not to be your enemy but it is to be used by you and you will have the space to flourish.

Colossians 4:5 Behave wisely towards outsiders, making the best use of your time.

Now the topic of time has cropped up again it’s well to look at a literal rather than ‘dynamic’ translation of a couple of well-known verses. This will be important in the next few posts. The New King James Version and my study bible note reads:

Col 4:5 Walk in wisdom toward those who are outside, redeeming the time (‘kairos – opportune time, set time, appointed time, due time, definitive time, seasonable time, proper time for action. Kairos describes kind or quality of time, whereas chronos denotes extent or quantity of time’.)

Eph 5:16-17 See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but wise, redeeming the time because the days are evil. Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what he will of the Lord is. (‘Redeeming the time is capitalizing upon every opportunity’ – but one teacher offers an insight based upon the meaning of ‘redeemed’ as ‘Ga’al, the ancient custom of buying back something lost through helplessness, poverty or violence’: eg. Isaiah 52:9 where the Lord redeems Jerusalem.)

Also, Lindell Cooley’s Saturday morning message at CHP’s Autumn Glory Day’s on how to be led by the Holy Spirit – plus abiding in the Lord – gave more scriptural background to this Lion Bite.

Notes:

I was stunned by not only the content but also the timing of this word on aligning our activities with the Lord’s calendar because that very day’s events confirm it IN ADVANCE, as follows.:

Our usual daily routine had been changed to fit into the surgeon’s schedule plus the Lord’s help and comfort.
Our church had scheduled a full day’s prayer cover in half-hour slots by various brethren.
In view of my recent comments on time in a scientific blog I took the opportunity, whilst waiting for Nina’s return from surgery, to listen to Justin Abraham’s cutting-edge teaching On Engaging Time [2-part blog: Introduction & In 1st 15 Minutes].
The heart of that deep instruction is succinctly summarised by this Lion Bite email.

An amazing God-incidence! I doubt it may have made such a deep impact had I checked email by phone whilst in the hospital’s cafe. So the Lord well-knew our day and lined it up with His dairy – praise Jesus that You are the Lord of Time.

Dr Sharon Stone: New Year 5777 (2016-2017) – the Sword of the Lord will arise

Posted on Thursday, 6 October, 2016 by Richard Barker

Chuck Pierce Glory of Zion

“Ask me and I will tell you remarkable secrets you do not know about things to come”. (Jer 33.3 NLT)

At an international gathering of prophets in Windsor, Berkshire, on 3rd September Rev Dr Stone gave attendees a heads-up on this new Hebraic Year 5777, ie. a month before it began on Rosh Hashanah at sundown last Sunday (2nd October 2016).

PART 1: Words & Numbers

Sharon’s purpose in providing an early analysis and report is to enable us to understand this new season, thereby aligning and positioning ourselves to receive the great blessing of what’s coming. Knowing what’s in our future gives us momentum to bring it into the present.

Her opening instruction stresses the importance of getting a ‘NOW’ word from the Lord;

“For those who don’t understand why we need a ‘now‘ word; as soon as I know what the Spirit of God is doing I align myself with that. I put my eyes where His are, I put my heart where His is, I put my hand where His is, I put my feet where I see He’s focused and I’m in a place of such great blessing, opportunity and advancement because I’ve not had to struggle to do that. It’s being in the right place at the right time – and that’s my prayer for each one of you.”

The pictorial characters of the Hebrew alphabet are not only of linguistic use and meaning but, like ancient Greek, also have a numerical value by virtue of their place in the alphabet, and some represent larger numbers in multiple of ten and of hundred. Thus, rich layers of meaning may be found within these letters and correspondingly within holy scripture.

Ayin

She explains 5700 means ‘may this be the year of…’ and we’re in the decade of the 70, which is represented by letter ‘ayin’ or a pair of eyes (pictographically).

“So in every year of this decade we come to a new place of enlightenment for the church in different arenas – but it also means personally that your eyes are being opened up! Your (spiritual) vision is becoming more clear (and your getting) details of a strategy rather than an overview.

“By the end of this decade you need to expect that the prophetic has been increased in the midst of you…and you can go from one level to the next level in a greater way and a faster way than you could at any time before…At this time the Spirit of God is giving me two scriptures for this season we’re in.”

Sharon then speaks in-depth on Jeremiah 33.3, as quoted above about this remarkable season where the Lord’s putting a hunger in us for knowing about things to come. Next she expounds upon Isaiah 42:16 as another key pertinent to our prophetic eyesight:

“I will lead the blind by ways they have not known. Along paths they have not known I will guide them. I will turn the darkness into light before them and I will make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do and I will not forsake them”.

Meaning of 777

It seems God’s favorite number is 7, especially in the Book of Revelation, and this year’s number has 3! Number 7 means perfect, complete, and when something’s mentioned three times in scripture it’s for emphasis.

777 is ‘divine – divine – divine’ or completion of perfection. Therefore, Sharon is hearing the the Lord say to her that over-longstanding issues and delayed promises are about to be finished and completed, and Holy Spirit will enable us to become overcomers.

So in this season of bringing to completion, or perfection, God’s giving us opportunities to learn and overcome and gain victories by which we can testify as overcomers.

During this time of perfected completion many will see a finished manifestation, especially for incomplete personal deliverance and for lengthy healing processes, these will come to completion and finish so that we can move on.

PART 2: Dream of Weapons

Sharon recounts a dream of a week or so earlier of being in a museum and seeing many Medieval weapons. Just before the end, her attention is drawn to “a very strong sword; a broad two-edged sword but it’s hilt had a crown that covered the hand”.

Upon telling husband Greg about the dream and about 5777 he told her to see what he’d emailed her about Chuck Pierce’s Head of the Year 5777 gathering that, “has on the front of it a picture of a sword with a crown on top – isn’t that incredible!”

Chuck Pierce Glory of Zion

Sharon explains its direct relevance to the 7th letter Hebrew ‘zayin’ which is written like a sword with a crown on top (footnote’s link refers). As a sword means ‘war’ and being in a ‘zayin’ season we have to prepare for war and battle.

THE SWORD OF THE LORD WILL ARISE

Sharon continues by delivering an important prophetic word: “The Spirit of the Lord says,

“Surely I am in this season putting out a call to arms. My sword – the Sword of the Lord – will arise”, but the Lord says, “Also, the sword of the enemy will arise at this time.”

But the Lord says, “Nations will behold not only My wisdom but, My sons and daughters, the nations will behold My severity also.”

And the Lord says, “You will come to be one that no longer runs from spiritual warfare but you will realise that you are in a season” He says, “where I am unveiling new strategies.”

And the Lord says, “But just like in Gideon’s day there was a winnowing down of the troops until I had a people that I could operate through”, and the Spirit of the Lord says, “in this nation and in many other nations of the earth there has been a shifting in the prayer movement, there has been a shifting in the prophetic, there has been a dispersing and a going back home, and there has been a remnant that has arisen”, says the Lord.

And the Lord says that, “I declare even over the UK – (and globally in the nations, offers Sharon) – now there is going to be a Gideon army coming together” and the Lord says that, “The reason for My Gideon army is not because I despise revival and harvest – I don’t want the many saved? No, the reason I’m going to raise a Gideon army is I’m going to cause you to know My Power” says the Lord, “So it’s not going to be by your strength, by your power”, says the Lord, “but it’s going to be by My strength and My power and my Spirit.”

And the Lord says that, “You will see Me as the Lord Sabaoth – the One leading His troops forward”, but the Spirit of the Lord says, “Where many expect Me to lift up My standard that you might follow” the Spirit of God says, “YOU are going to be My standard in the earth”, says God and the Lord says, “I will cause others to see your great exploits.”

And the Lord says, “You have all been in Kingdom conflict” but the Lord says, “This is different from yesterday for now you are in armed conflict”, for the Lord says, “I am giving you, furnishing you even with new weapons, weapons for a battle for victory” says God, “I will fight not simply because you are a warrior but because of your love for Me, your love for others and your love for the land that will motivate you.”

And the Lord says that, “You will wage war (look at this play on words), you will wage war and I will release back to you your stolen wages and it will be a financial season of the power in you as well.”

And the Lord says, “The armed robber needed an armed guard to deal with him, but I’m releasing you even as an armed guard in the earth!” says your Father.

Sharon then mentions a sister had told her about a similar vision in the previous week that made her understood new weaponry would be released at the gathering.

Footnote: Hebrew for Christians website is most illuminating about Letter Zayin, especially in connection with time, viz: “since Zayin represents both the number 7 and a sword it is not surprising that it is used to divide or “cut up” time into units of sevens” (!!)

Special September #2 – a Kingdom 5th anniversary today

Posted on Saturday, 3 September, 2016 by Richard Barker

Five years ago this morning I awoke from a most unusual visit to central London. And that weekend’s events were to prove decisive in my starting this blog.

Two days earlier on Thursday 1st September 2011 the Revival Alliance, an apostolic team of leaders who’d been closely involved with the Toronto Outpouring and later events, met hundreds of other revivalist leaders for a long-weekend in Emmanuel Church in Marsham Street, Westminster.

Hand and puzzle pieces - Anusorn p Nachol

So now, five years later, I’m surprised to be reminded of it – but things of the Lord are no longer so unusual. We could say He’s running a paper-chase and leaving a trail for us to follow and catch Him! However, more often than not so little effort is needed because He doesn’t scatter His data indiscriminately but drops them like pieces of a puzzle into our hands. We should, therefore, ‘grasp’ what they are and fit them into a vast, unseen jigsaw puzzle.

220px-Paul_Revere's_ride The latest piece depicts Paul Revere’s historic ride before the opening battles in the American Revolution to alert citizens that troops of British king George III are about to attack (more here). Readers of my recent post on the spiritual link between UK and USA will have read at its close how a reminder of the event had unexpectedly cropped up. Had I completed that post when I drafted it last week then I doubt this would have happened. That is, I could well have missed an insight into what happened back in 2011 and its relevance to what the Lord’s now doing in the UK.

Ruminating over and repeatedly blogging about the prophetic word Lydia Marrow brought two months ago yesterday, and its very personal connection with what Nina had seen at 11th June’s traditional royal ceremony, may have stirred my memory – but it’s far more likely the Lord engineered the timing to point to it as being special.

To return to the gathering five years ago, a few days later when writing to Christen Forster, who’d had a prophetic word relating to Ezra 4 about building the house of the Lord and thus desired to convene a meeting of the Revival Alliance in the UK, I learnt about other sources of inspiration at its inception meeting in November 2010. This extract from that meeting’s Report refers to Paul Revere’s ride:

Paul Revere Refc

Tim’s remark about that spreading of vision and creation of a network may be regarded not only as meaning RA-related events alone but, in my humble opinion, could also imply that digital networks be developed and expanded to inform and update Christians on prophetic and intercessory matters.

In this connection and for readers who may not have had opportunity to follow the links in that previous post, let me now relate what happened five years ago today, on Saturday 3rd September 2011. I had a most unusual dream as reported to Christen and to the leaders of Winchester Vineyard Church during their de-briefing meeting and emailed them, as later published in one of my earliest blogs (20 December 2011, as linked below):

‘YOUR KINGDOM COME

‘I’m in an open-plan, modern office environment overlooking a town centre. Upon glancing out of one side’s extensive windows I’m amazed to see a large white cube flying very low over nearby buildings! (It’s about the size of a Hercules transport plane.) Watching, I see a few more similar cubes follow and fan out in different directions.

‘Then I look from a different quarter’s aspect to see where they’re coming from and notice this view is from a much higher floor and over a different location! Then, a couple of cubes hover and discharge some cargo, which floats down to settle on the ground – rather as furniture vans deposit items outside a house.

‘However, I’m seeing into a room being set up, as though the building itself is invisible! A large wooden table and its several chairs are already there as white porcelain bathroom furnishings descend, but remain hanging in space!

‘In a flash I understand what’s happening and, without thinking, hear myself comment aloud, “They’re setting up The Kingdom!”

‘Someone else watching disparagingly quips, “Oh, that’s your perspective”.

‘Again I’m surprised by my immediate, unconscious retort, “I studied perception at Uni!” (ie. in physics and in psychology, and am thus making a well-informed comment.)

‘A sudden urgency comes upon me to dash home with this news. Jumping into a car I find my normal route out of the building diverted and a huge vehicle tries to collide with me. Dodging that I drive up a slip road onto a choked road but find this very basic car becomes seriously under-powered.

‘So I get out to walk yet find all hard paving has turned into lush green grass of wide-open meadows. The congested road’s gone and I’m sliding down a well-worn grass slide to then run, or move, much faster than I can really run across an extensive area. I head a few dozen feet above the land, as though in a glider, and some very large object or person rushes from the left to block my path. Totally unfazed, I deliberately collide into it and it smashes into oblivion without halting or affecting my movement.

‘On the nearby horizon an unusual low building looms into view but, as I approach this destination, the alarm clock goes off!!

‘An initial interpretation came with great excitement in view of several revival meetings this month. I believe the Lord gave the above heading for my note of this lucid dream.

‘All this needed weighing BUT I didn’t expect confirmation and more insights not only in connection with the Gathering itself but also with the prophetic word reported at the Gathering’s Inception Meeting in Nov 2010!…’

This continues with details of three subsequent days’ events, as revealed in Father Let Your Kingdom Come. There, you will read why and how that dream’s location directly tied in with the RA gathering’s venue. It was only much later upon reading an account of the event that I received confirmation of my declaration “They’re setting up the Kingdom!” in its echoing the idea behind what Californian Bill Johnson offered there in London:

“We would look back at 1st September 2011 as the day things changed in the UK.”

David Edward Pike, a Welsh delegate, noted that Bill went to say it might take time for the impact of this day to be seen and felt across the nation, but gradually it would come. Chris Welch of Hampshire also noted him as saying,

“There’s something about September 1st. I believe you can write it down…‘Everything changed September 1st 2011’….understand that a Kingdom perspective sees the oak tree as an acorn…I feel like it’s a prophetic word over this country: September 1st everything’s different.”

Of course we need a spiritually-minded historian’s take on events, but we do have a few things to ponder over with the Lord in connection with current events…Bill’s reference to growth from an acorn is particularly relevant to Christian ministry too.

As a personal consequence, that first week of September 2011 marked the tipping point in my decision to start blogging because, as indicated in that dream, the news of increasing Kingdom developments needed to be broadcast far more widely – and in public – than by private circulation of emails to my inter-church friends and leaders.

On visions, maps, timing and God’s jigsaw of harvest of souls in New Britain

Posted on Friday, 12 August, 2016 by Richard Barker

Hands Holding World by Twobee Prediction, prophetic words and visions are pieces of God’s invisible jigsaw puzzle. The spirit of wisdom taught Solomon ‘It is the glory of God to conceal a matter; to search out a matter is the glory of kings’ (Prov 25:2).

Moreover, as mature sons and daughters of The King, His Holy Spirit may enable us to discern pieces and aspects of the immense invisible jigsaw He’s laying down – and it seems to be of the harvest foretold in scripture.

We need to consider some recent, related events first:

Yinka Oyekan’s vision of the coming harvest of souls in New Britain isn’t the only one to have been received by Christians. His, however, connects into a developing one that came to me before and after the EU Referendum.

Yinka posted on Facebook 4th August about angelic armies, areas being newly blessed and the harvest. The next day Veronika West brought A Now Word for the UK. which opens by referring to the ongoing spiritual battle that I’ve covered elsewhere, and then goes on,

‘Listen!…Listen! Heaven heralds new hope, new life and UNPRECEDENTED HARVEST IN THIS HOUR“! I see battle lines drawn in the spirit…’

I quote extracts from this magnificently heartening word but, to gain a proper appreciation of the outcome, I strongly recommend your reading it in full from the above-titled link:

HARVEST FIELDS!

‘I wanted quickly share something with you all, this morning in my prayer time, I had a short vision, and in this vision I was shown what looked like a LARGE FIELD OF CORN, THE HARVEST LOOKED READY. AS I LOOKED UPON THE FIELD I COULD SEE WHAT APPEARED TO BE WARRING ANGELS STANDING IN THE FIELD, AS I LOOKED AT THEM, EACH ANGEL PERFECTLY AND STRATEGICALLY POSITIONED, SOME FACED THE EAST, SOME FACED THE WEST, SOME FACED THE SOUTH AND THE NORTH…

‘My interpretation the HARVEST IS READY, AND HELL IS NOT HAPPY!!! I submit Satan has assigned His demonic cohorts to the fields that are READY for Harvest. There is battle over the United Kingdom that is raging in the heavens in this hour for this ETERNAL HARVEST…’

Personally, this is exceptionally encouraging because the parable Jesus taught about the harvest in the ‘Gospel According to an Inland Revenue Tax-collector’ (see Matthew 13:) prompted my starting to write with ‘The End-game is Now in Play’. [If you’re new here you may like to check this out at 7th Anniversary of Writing, which gives a useful introduction to personal themes that sometimes pop up, as now: ‘God-incidents & Jigsaws’.]

NOW, get ready to find out how eight pieces of an invisible jigsaw came together:

The day I blogged about previous Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher’s prediction of popular opinion about the European Union along the lines what prophet Daniel foresaw (see Daniel chapter 7) we went to Winchester for an evening meeting of intercessors. Our friend Neil Mackereth, whose summary Stay or Leave? was one of the first of many blogs on the EU membership referendum, had mentioned that gathering and we thought it appropriate to attend.

That day I published Vision of Spiritual Battle for Britain’s Birthright in which Veronika West claims to have seen mighty warrior angels in a fierce battle and tug of war over the future destiny and sovereignty of the UK, wherein she saw:

“A Mighty Guardian Angel stood hundreds of feet tall and with eyes of blazing fire: he stood with a raised sword and shield which completely overshadowed the whole Nation of Britain”.

At the evening’s inter-church intercession a couple of folk brought scripture and prayers about our spiritual birthright. Towards the close I referred in passing to the vision of UK’s Guardian Angel but, at the very mention, a couple of sisters were affected so strongly in their spirits they immediately reacted physically. (Like when the Lord spoke to Nina during Trooping of the Colour and she saw the scrolling text: “This is MY country!”)

Winchester – 1st jigsaw piece

Other than with Neil and convener Caroline, I haven’t yet shared what I’d ‘seen’ throughout the meeting in Winchester Vineyard church. Here’s my email to her:

‘Whilst we stood in a rough circle I kept getting the impression of a huge outline of Britain hazily hovering a foot or so off the floor between us. It was as though we were standing as giants all around and looking down on Britain with our backs turned towards Europe and Scandinavia…

‘I was positioned by the ‘Isle of Wight’ and, after Neil read about Jesus telling Satan to get behind him, I was moved to declare that S in Europe get behind and away from Britain.

‘Also, I saw a huge tear through the ‘map’ and emerge over a larger area (ie North Downs to Scottish borders?) then when I saw a similar but very clear open vision 12 years ago (https://richards-watch.org/2011/08/18/comments-on-sharon-stone-collapse-of-society/ refers)

This latest was a faint yet persistent, transparent outline of the English, Scottish and Welsh coastline. I noticed it was as though on a large map-table in a ‘situation’ or war-room and we could perhaps be engaged in strategic planning.

At the close of the meeting it suddenly ripped open, as though an immense and invisible tin-opener had pierced and prized open most of the land. I saw torn parts of metal curling upwards along the length of the country north of Salisbury Plain and across from Swindon area to west of London. The colour of the land that was ‘visible’ was an orange-sand all over – how peculiar, thought I.

Referendum Polling Day

In the late 1970’s ‘Sandra’ was blessed with a vision of Britain lighting up, similar to that of Jean Darnall but without knowing about her until later. The Lord directed ‘Sandra’ to keep praying since 2002 because “the tide has turned” and told her it would look as though He’s not answering prayers, “But I am, in my own time and in My own way”. On 23rd June she was able to observe remarkable events at a polling station and informs me:

“I watched God’s miracles unfold – incredible even though I’d prayed for this for many years. There was 80% turnout…queuing at the door before 7am determined to vote as soon as polls opened. All day they came, old people and 1st-time voters, and many in between. Some did not know how to vote but they were determined anyway. I know God would have influenced them in their choice. Some had great physical disabilities and could hardly walk or some had other impairments but they got themselves there somehow. There wasn’t any time for staff to take lunch. It was truly amazing. In the end, whether they acknowledge him or not, all people will serve their Creator. “Your Kingdom’s coming – Salvation Day – a time of breakthrough – the Lord is on His way. Only our God is strong to save. Only our God will save us.” Thank God that we will never completely know the horrors from which we have been saved had the country voted the other way. Thank God that He will, in time, help Europe too.”

All that’s especially so in view of polling day’s unusually heavy storms and flooding!

Peterborough – 2nd, 3rd & 4th jigsaw pieces

Shake the Nations Legacy Conference in Peterborough (covered briefly here) brought developments upon that Winchester vision. During the elevating, prolonged worship of the first evening I sensed a golden-yellow light radiating towards East Anglia and out over the North Sea. (The 2nd piece.)

Funnily enough it was directional and not a full circle – just like we see on radar screens depicting where the radar beam is sweeping. Again it was another map image.

A couple of worship sessions later I had a distinct impression of a map of the UK main-land and again it was like a bright orange sandy beach but this time it was all over, for the huge gap that I’d seen previously had disappeared! Furthermore, I saw a giant hand moving all around the land gently smoothing and patting it. Any signs of ‘cataclysmic’ tear across the nation had been folded back, repaired and healed and covered by what appeared to be a nation-wide field of colour void of any habitations or forestry. (The 3rd piece.)

Then I realised the entire land looks just like an immense field ripe for harvest: all the way from Lands’ End in Cornwall to John O’Groat’s at the top of Scotland and across from the Welsh peninsulars to the eastern coast abutting the North Sea! It must surely signify all Britain will soon be harvested for souls coming into the Kingdom of God – their personal salvation! Hallelujah!

Praise the Lord that His will will be done on earth – in Britain – as it is in heaven!

This new vision was soon to be confirmed. On the morning STN staff shared their vision for further global evangelism worship leader Lydia Marrow from Alabama suddenly burst into prophetic flow about many towns in the UK erupting with heavenly rivers – the 4th piece! Also, she called for “Redcoats” (Yankee term for 18th Century British army) to come, which must relate somehow to what the Lord was indicating when Nina saw the Coldstream Guards marching down the Mall for Trooping The Colour. [UPDATE: video and transcript now available.]

I’d drafted most of the preceding paragraphs as soon as I could on Wednesday morning. As I was doing so yet more pieces to the jigsaw puzzle appeared via my PC. Whyever not? Many times as I blog relevant email, news or songs have turned up ‘coincidentally’ . After all, the Lord taught me a deep lesson whilst building it (see And Now A PC Gospel?)

Angels in Peterborough – 5th & 6th jigsaw pieces

Now for an excellent example of the Lord’s timing, or ‘God-incidence’. Soon after I started writing about Winchester an email arrived from a couple with whom I’m only occasionally in touch. We’d met Peter and Rosamund D at the gathering of early 2012 mentioned in the post about the new PM’s mission fulfilling a 2005 prophecy (see Fulfilled Prophecies #9). [‘Weirdly’ enough the distance to that venue in Torquay was another validation of my encounter with the Lord in 1989 as well as of prophecies for 2012, as recounted here.]

Their email is headed ‘Vision on 3rd August 2016 at Faith Camp Peterborough (!!) during the prophetic worship’ and is the 5th piece. It reads:

‘Immediately the prophetic worship started on Wednesday evening, I had an awesome vision.

‘My husband and I both heard a “creaking” sound! The Lord said, “I have opened the ancient gates to the nation!” Then I saw millions upon millions of warrior angels arrive through these ancient gates. They were all dressed for battle and close together in formation. Then I saw a great light, as the Lord Himself arrived.’

Immediately I stopped blogging and, in view of the 6th piece – a dream I’d had that very morning (Wednesday), I could confirm their vision and replied as follows:

‘Had an awesomely powerful dream that woke me up wide-awake. It was multi-level symbolism and conscious learning with continual and intense praying and prophesying in tongues for UK. In essence, I think it means the Lord is empowering intercessors…to declare and prophesy Godly changes into our leaders and situations, thereby taking our heavenly rulership so that His will will now be done on earth as it is in heaven; ie. for and in Britain. He even gave me an understanding of how His purpose for Britain inspired Henry VIII’s building a naval fleet, thereby preparing for our great maritime power in evangelising globally and building a Christian empire.
‘…the most powerful part was when I saw swing-doors/gates closing against what was coming from the heavenly realm YET the power from heaven continued to pour through mightily!!’

Peter replied, “We are encountering one divine set-up after another!”

Therefore, intercessors may want to note those principles of prophetic declarations. [For more see Mentoring Day parts 1 & 2 and Apostolic, Prophetic Decrees Over The UK.]

Prophetic Word from Oz – 7th jigsaw piece

Taking a break later that day I mulled over hard-copies of long prophetic words that I only have time for quickly scanning on-screen. One was Word for the Nations, including UK from Amanda Wells, now shown in Thursday’s post.

It confirmed that insight into Henry VIII’s fleet by Amanda’s referring to August trade winds having “enabled the European empire to expand into the Americas and trade routes to become established across the Atlantic and Pacific oceans…Historically trade routes were the avenue were the avenue where religion, trade and technology spread across regions…many became paths for great revivals also…”

The ‘Now Word’ for UK – 8th jigsaw piece

Today (Thursday) I decided to scroll through Veronika West’s site as my Facebook blog-page doesn’t get any automatic feeds from those I’m interested in. So I caught up with her post of 5th August, as above, wherein she describes seeing “A large field of corn – the harvest looked ready”, rather like the UK-wide golden ripe field in my third map vision described above.

All of this relates back to 2009 when I had to tell friends and church leaders about Matt 13 parable of wheat and tares and that I’d heard, “This is ALL about to be fulfilled!”

Conclusion

To those personal eight pieces we could add the original that ‘kick started’ them, the vision of a spiritual battle given to Veronika and that to Yinka of regional awakening and harvest.

Could our heavenly Father like doing jigsaw puzzles with us? Has He got a jigsaw box ‘Souls Harvest’ and does He want us to help Him solve it and put it all together? Events and evidence suggest that’s what He’s got and would like us to do – so we thank and praise our Heavenly Father in revealing His plans to His sons and daughters.
