First thing Thursday 8th December I just had to blog EU ‘Remoaners’ Thrashed and Trashed in Parliament and use a specific image, as right. It was about the previous evening’s astounding 5 to 1 voting victory in the House of Commons in support of Brexit and PM May’s plans for implementing Article 50.
Three interesting confirmations of that lion image were to follow:
1st – Whilst walking downstairs around the house my wife had a flash vision (eyes open) of a profile of a lion’s head, rather like the above image but without any flags.
2nd – Dave Hood contributed that evening a detailed comment ‘Let The Lion Roar’ upon his learning of that outcome: ‘As I thought of this, rejoicingly, I became quietened and it was then I heard, in that ..quiet .. I heard a single lions, single roar…….’ He submitted a separate email relating to what the Lord had shared with him on the Lion Lord some years ago.
Today I had a vision where I saw the Lion of Judah ROARING and as He roared, out of His mouth came the ROAR filled with the words
“IT IS THE VINDICATION VICTORY!!!!”
His ROAR SO LOUD and SO POWERFUL, mountains could have crumbled in a second. NOTHING stands against Him and NOTHING could stop Him.
As His ROAR continued I heard the words:
“Many of you My people, feel like you will leave 2016 DEFEATED, but I am ROARING over you “LOOK IT IS THE LAST MINUTE VINDICATION VICTORY!!!” STAND TALL My people, LIFT UP YOUR EYES, DO NOT GIVE UP HOPE, for as you STAND IN ME, you will see My VINDICATION VICTORY manifested in your lives. You will NOT leave 2016 DEFEATED. 2016 is NOT OVER YET!!!! Do not DOUBT the “ELEVENTH HOUR” shift to bring VICTORY and VINDICATION. For in the “ELEVENTH HOUR” of 2016, I will SUDDENLY THE CHAINS of 2016 and you will cross over into 2017 with HOPE RENEWED with HIGH HOPES and REFRESHED in your different displays of My MANIFESTED VINDICATION VICTORY in your life, to meet your “FINALLY MOMENTS” in 2017.”
“Lay down the “not understanding of 2016” and WORSHIP ME!!!! Lay down the disappointments, the hurts, the pain of 2016 at My feet and watch My “ELEVENTH HOUR VINDICATION VICTORY!!!!”
“The manifestation of Exodus 14:14 will be seen in the ELEVENTH HOUR of 2016 RAISING YOUR HOPES IN ME for 2017!!! MANY of you will SEE in the ELEVENTH HOUR of 2016 how I have been fighting for you and decreeing your VICTORY all through 2016 when you thought I had forgotten or you had been passed by. Surprises will MANIFEST as you PRESS IN and REST in Me in the ELEVENTH HOUR of 2016!!”
“The LORD is fighting for you! So be still!”” (Exodus 14:14)
UK-EU jigsaw – credit Ton Snoei, Prophecy Today UK
Catching ten or so minutes of live coverage of today’s hearing before the 11 judges of the Supreme Court as the Attorney General presents the case for triggering Article 50 raises the following query:
How long will the Court last before being dismantled?
It was introduced and established by Tony Blair according to the European model. So a European institution in our land is ruling upon our government’s actions and endangering our Constitution. The purpose of its own existence needs to be seriously questioned and debated, if not summarily shut down.
We’re in this crazy position because of the draconian nature of EU legislation – and the European edition of American journalism’s Politico reports in Where European Democracy Goes To Die on EU leaders fast-tracking legislation out of sight of public view!
Moreover, as David Chapman points out in his paper EU’s Background & Alternative on this blog, the EU’s principles of justice are contrary to those of Great Britain!
Greatly as I appreciate the expertise of legal arguments, having served for some years as a contracts officer for the government, my sneek-peek made me conclude they’re ‘talking tosh’ at my expense, ie. at taxpayers’ expense. The House of Commons overwhelmingly supports Brexit and so this legal talking-shop should cease and simply ensure that Brexit is achieved with all the legal niceties ironed out.
If the Supreme Court decides against the government’s mandate for the UK to leave the EU as quickly as possible and, therefore, against the will of voters in the largest electoral turnout in Britain’s democratic history, then it may find itself being closed down by political directive!
Maybe my above title is merely wishful thinking – or prophetical pondering?
PS – very interesting and important word from the Lord on this fierce battle to Veronika West in herWord To The UK
Grateful thanks to the unknown creator of this splendid illustration
That’s the sort of news to wake up to!
The British Parliament has ratified the people’s wishes to leave the European Union – terrific! The spotlight is now upon those Members who treat the voting public with contempt and shows the majority of votes in Richmond-upon-Thames last week are utterly unrepresentative. (Having lived near there I concur with one of my readers’ claims about its dominant, ungodly darkness – the Lord knows and I pray He will deal with its practitioners in the same gracious way He did with yours truly!)
Prime Minister May is to be congratulated in her sudden decision to call Brexit sceptic’s bluff during the Supreme Court’s review on how Article 50 is to be implemented. Last night’s first full-scale debate in the House of Commons since the Referendum on leaving the EU brought MASSIVE MAJORITY of 461 to 89 in favour of triggering Article 50 by next March.
Not that I’m politically affiliated or motivated as my time is too valuable, but this sovereign action has trounced the pretensions of political dinosaurs Nick Clegg and past Prime Ministers John Major and Tony Blair – and nailed down the coffin upon Blair’s attempts at a political come-back! Moreover, despicable oaf Bob Geldoff gets his just desserts. SNP’s leader Nicola Sturgeon needs to read the writing on the wall for her future ambitions…

“LOOK! THE CHILDREN ARE COMING CARRYING THE FIRES OF REVIVAL, A TIME OF SIFTING IS TURNING TO A TIME OF RADICAL SHIFTING”!
Two days ago I was in a time of prayer for Theresa May when I heard in the spirit the sound of a beating drum but it seemed a way off in the distance, as I continued to press into the sound, suddenly I saw an army of children marching on the horizon, I saw them dressed in garments of pure white light, they moved and advanced to the sound of a beating drum, immediately I heard the Father say,
“MY DAUGHTER BEHOLD I AM DOING A NEW THING IN THIS HOUR AND IN THIS NATION, TELL MY PEOPLE TO FORGET THE FORMER THINGS AND NOT TO EVEN CONSIDER THE THINGS OF OLD, NOW IT SHALL SPRING FORTH; YOU SHALL KNOW IT? WATCH! FOR MY LAMBS ARE ARISING AND ADVANCING IN THIS HOUR, CLOTHED IN THE FIERY GARMENTS OF REVIVAL, AND ANOINTED WITH KINGDOM POWER, AUTHORITY AND REVELATION, THESE ARE THE SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF PEACE AND PURITY WHO WILL LEAD THE SHEEP BY A NEW WAY, A WAY THAT LEADS TO A NEW LAND OF PROMISE AND VICTORY, FOR I AM RESHAPING, READJUSTING, REFASHIONING AND REBUILDING THIS NATION, IT’S TIME FOR MY PEOPLE TO MOVE AND SHIFT, MOVE AND SHIFT, EYES HAVE NOT SEEN, EARS HAVE NOT HEARD AND MINDS HAVE NOT CONCEIVED WHAT I AM ABOUT TO DO IN THIS NATION”, says God.
As I heard the Father speak these powerful words, I saw His hand write across the skyline the words,
“PARADIGM SHIFT, IT’S TIME TO MOVE”!
Now after hearing Him speak, I began to praise Him for the NEW THING that He is doing in the midst of our Nation, when the Holy Spirit impressed upon me a picture of a ‘Drummer Boy’ who would march on the battlefield ahead of the Army playing his drum.
The picture was so clear and so powerful that I immediately looked up some details on the duties of a Drummer Boy, and this is what I found; Now among the many tasks of a drummer boy one was to beat the cadence for the soldiers that were marching. But one of his main jobs was to be the communicator for his unit. The drummer boy established communications and kept order among the units in the field. The drummer boy would use one of many drum calls for everything from assembling the troops to march, to gathering the officers for strategy meetings, and also to sound the call to advance or retreat while under enemy fire.
Drummers always remained near a high-ranking officers to play the drum calls that would relay the officer’s orders. The drummer boys were often awakened at all hours of the night to drum the call. Frequently, he would not be able to go back to sleep, because once the men were assembled and deployed, the drummers would lay down their drums and act as runners between outposts, carry stretchers or do whatever was necessary to help the unit.
I found this information incredibly exciting, enlightening, and powerfully prophetic of what God is doing and about to do with the younger generation in our Nation at the critical time!!
ABOUT VERONIKA WEST
In view of my re-posting the words Veronika brings and recognising the anointing upon her I’m pleased to read an IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT dated 2nd December issued with ‘Much Love and Blessings’ on Facebook. This is especially so because I’ve known Revd Dr Sharon and Greg Stone since 2005 and often attend CIE meetings. Veronika writes:
‘I would not usually make announcements like this, however I believe it is necessary in light of so many many emails from folk asking me who I am in the Ministry. I understand perfectly why people ask these important questions and I strongly believe it is good and right to ask!
‘Here is an overview of my bio in a nutshell;
Veronika West is Anointed and Appointed by God as a prophetic voice. Veronika has a heart to see the Body of Christ Activated and fulfilling Kingdom Destiny. Being born and raised in Africa she has a passion for Deliverance Ministry and seeing the captives set free. She enjoys teaching the Word of God through practical application and supernatural impartation. Veronika West has been ordained by Christian International Europe Ministries as a Prophet, to those of you who are not familiar with CIE it is an International Ministry founded by Dr Bill Hammon. Veronika West is both accountable and endorsed by Apostle and Prophets Dr Sharon Stone and Greg Black of CIE Ministries in the UK. Now living in Ireland she is in the process of building a ministry called ‘Ignite Ireland Ministry’. Veronika has a strong spiritual connection to the land and works and ministers along side other Leaders who have a call to rebuild and restore the Body of Christ throughout the UK and abroad. Veronika is married to Andrew West, together they have two children, a son called Caleb and a daughter called Zoe, her husband Andrew is a business owner and has a strong call to Market Place Ministry.’
Veronika adds that anyone wanting to ask questions is not to hesitate in asking, and that she’s more than happy to provide email addresses for CIE to verify her submission.
As foretold by many prophetic voices last year, or earlier, there’s been an acceleration in the prophetic, especially in what the Lord is doing to bring about His plans in the nations – ‘Lord, Your Kingdom, let it come; Your will, let it be done on earth as it is in heaven’.
As with all prophetic words on this blog and elsewhere they are offered for your weighing with the Lord…
FOR THE USA
This morning in Australia Lana Vawser published “AMERICA, THIS IS THE DAY YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR – THIS IS YOUR DAY OF DESTINY!!!!”, saying ‘This is quite a lengthy word, but I feel it is very important for the United States right now. I have been hearing the words over and over “America, this is the day you have been waiting for – this is your day of destiny!!!”….’ [Continue reading by clicking here.]
“AND MANY WILL SAY OF HIM, ITS LIKE HE HAS LEGS OF LEAD AND NERVES OF STEEL FOR THE SPIRIT OF GOD HAS MADE HIM UNSHAKABLE AND IMMOVABLE IN THE MIDST OF GREAT TROUBLE AND TURMOIL”!
‘Today as I was driving to a prayer meeting singing away to a Worship CD when the Holy Spirit suddenly interrupted me with a very clear picture of Donald Trump..! As I looked at him I saw that he was surrounded by raging waters that were rising very quickly.… However to my surprise he looked calm and peaceful, he seemed totally unperturbed, his face was fixed, focused and full of Hope and Expectation. The words, “GODS MAN WITH A PLAN” came to mind in that moment! As I looked again at him the waters continued to rise and rage roundabout him, then I saw something strange, it was as if his legs were being filled with lead and then I heard these words so clearly, “AND MANY WILL SAY OF HIM, ITS LIKE HE HAS LEGS OF LEAD AND NERVES OF STEEL, FOR THE SPIRIT OF GOD HAS MADE HIM UNSHAKABLE AND IMMOVABLE IN THE MIDST OF GREAT TROUBLE AND GREAT TURMOIL, NOW HE WILL LEAD THE NATION FORWARD INTO VICTORY AND WITH A NEW VISION EMPOWERED BY THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD, THE SPIRIT OF WISDOM, THE SPIRIT OF COUNSEL, THE SPIRIT OF MIGHT, THE SPIRIT OF UNDERSTANDING, THE SPIRIT KNOWLEDGE AND THE FEAR OF THE LORD”!
‘Then I saw President ELECT Donald Trump standing high upon a steep mountain side with his hands held high, his eyes fixed upon the heavens and his two feet deeply embedded into the rock-face of the mountain, the waters raged and the winds blew fiercely round about him but NOTHING COULD MOVE HIM!
‘Then I heard these words, “He lifted me out of a pit of confusion, above the rising waters, even out of the quicksand; and He placed my feet on a rock and established my steps”.’
FOR THE UK
To read the latest and most recent by many contributors who endeavour to hear what the Lord is saying, visit UK Prophetic Words – Holy Spirit Vision for Britain.Choose this Blogspot’s ‘Magazine’ or ‘Timeline’ layouts to obtain an overview of the compilation with a brief intro.
The blog was launched some years ago by Geoff Pick, who is now most ably assisted by Suzanne Payne. They are to be congratulated on their sacrificial service in providing a valuable resource to the Church, and I’m grateful for her contact and advice.
So many of those words resonate strongly in my spirit!
Intercessors and prayer warriors may want to weigh the details of a poignant dream that came to Veronika West on Monday about the possibility of undetected threats of attacks upon Britain, Germany, France, Israel and USA – and Australia -as in her post PRAY: THE SUBMARINES ARE COMING.
Also, I’m reminded of dreams in 2012 that Tony Puccio had about a coming submarine attack but which ‘surfaced’ again a few months ago, as here.
This important, powerful prophetic word comes from Emma Stark, co-director of Glasgow Prophetic Centre / Christian International Scotland, as well as national director of Healing Rooms Scotland, with husband David.
Emma calls it “Heaven’s breaking news” and shares about hearing the Lord say,
“The worm has turned, the worm has turned, the worm has turned away.”
She immediately knew this means satan and its hordes, and the Lord explains,
“The enemy has just changed direction and he has just changed strategy.”
Listen carefully as Emma brings the full details of what she received and then prays for listeners at the close:
This video posted on Sunday 20 November is highly encouraging for faithful intercessors and brings correction and instruction on how to pray in this situation.
It’s interesting to note concurrent events in the political world:
On the previous day I read about injudicious comments by Lady Hale, a justice in Britain’s Supreme Court. Most readers are aware the Court is to rule next month on the procedure for the government’s application of Article 50 for leaving the EU.
However, as Charles Moore explains in Saturday’s broadsheet op-ed ‘Time to say Hale and farewell to judges who hand down opinions on Europe’, Lady Hale delivered a lecture overseas in which she presumptuously declared that she and her fellow judges “have definitely become the guardians of the UK Constitution” (read earlier on-line version here).
Furthermore, the wife of the Court’s President Lord Neuberger had made dozens of tweets against the Referendum result, as well as broadcasting extreme opinion on it far and wide. Baroness Neuberger’s actions are not in contempt of court as such, but contrary to the Supreme Court’s own Guide to Judicial Conduct, which advises judges to show caution and restraint whenever publicly commenting upon their case decisions. Therefore, calls have been made for her husband to recuse himself from inclusion in the 11 judges sitting to hear the government’s case for Article 50.
On Monday it was reported Lord Neuberger has announced his early retirement next year. Furthermore, the leading political commentator Melanie Phillips has called for Lady Hale as the only female Supreme Court justice not to take his place as President (article refers).
Some readers found the newspaper’s previous editor’s opinion rather too polite, as in this sample of letters!
“Felt God say today “The winds have changed”get the feeling it’s like when Mr Banks learns how to play with his children in “Mary Poppins” and the wind changes. Get the feeling we are stepping into a vast and spacious land (the promised land). Bearing this in mind I would highly recommend you take a look at two videos: (see post’s Comments).
‘The Wind of Change is beginning to blow over the UK. The Spirit and the Word are beginning to come together and are forming an unbreakable chain that is dragging the church into the 21st century end times. At the same time the Ruach of God is blowing the cobwebs away, blowing the dust out of the corners, and cleaning up the Bride for Her Groom.
“I am sending my Wind of Change to cleanse My Bride of all the impurities found in her”, says the Lord. “Those of my church who have espoused hypergrace and sinful practices and claim that My Word teaches them are an abomination to me – those I will spit out of my mouth and they shall wither away. Those of my church who ignore the sick, the poor, the needy, widows and orphans – these will I leave out of my plans. Those who do not feed, clothe, and tend those in need – these I will desert in their own hour of need. Those who have no part in taking the gospel to people but expect them to come to the church – these will have no part in my risen church, nor in my celebrations”.
“I am about to resurrect my church”, says the Lord, “and the Ruach of God will blow through her. Those who hear what the Spirit has to say will prosper. Those whose lamps are kept prepared will be partakers of all my glory” says the Lord God Almighty.

And what a very windy weekend and early week we’ve had!!
PS: note also Tony Puccio’s contribution in the ‘replies’ below…
This ‘review’ of intercession for the Referendum and Election by Dave Chapman is offered not only for edification but also as a good example of listening to hear the Lord’s will for our world. Dave contributed a couple of informative papers very early in my blogging on the Referendum for staying in or leaving the EU and I’m honoured to publish his latest, to which underscoring is mine for emphasis.:
ON PATHS OF RESTORATION
Well, what a year it has been thus far! So much going on, and so many changes both here and abroad.
We began it with preparations for our trip to Kabale, Uganda, again. All sorts of things to do, and to take. Loads of clothes, and gifts we had been given, mostly monetary, for the work out there. We too were blessed there on so many fronts, not least the privilege of seeing God at work in miracles and healings through them before our very eyes.
Referendum Time
We were back home less than two weeks before David Cameron announced a June date for the Referendum. Prayer for this began in earnest. We focused primarily on “Your kingdom come, Lord, Your will be done….here”.
Though we sensed we needed to leave the EU, we did not pray from that standpoint. But, as we prayed, we ‘heard’ so many different scriptures coming, both to us and to others we were praying with, sometimes here and some other prayer times, all within a 20 mile radius of us. “Let my people go”, the words of Moses to Pharoah was an early one. Then there was the story of David and Goliath. Yes, the ‘Goliath’ is stunned, but not dead yet! There is quite a lot of wriggling going on! Continue reading →
A possible identity of the British Isles in the Bible is something I was aware of long before becoming a Christian. Thank you Jonathan Ely at Why Leave the EU? for your link to this article, and for the kind permission of The Emmaus Group, which presents a lucid case for Britain being the ancient land of Tarshish.:
Grateful thanks to the unknown creator of this splendid illustration
WHY BRITAIN HAS TO LEAVE THE EU – IT’S GOD’S WILL FOR US!
It is written that God establishes the boundaries of nations and for those who understand the times we are in, you realise we’re getting close to the end of days. So in light of the Referendum outcome, we decided to publish this article as we believe Britain could be the ancient nation of Tarshish, as referred to in Old Testament biblical prophecy. Tarshish is listed as one of the nations that challenges the Gog- Magog confederacy that sets itself up against Israel. Tarshish is also one of the first nations to bring offerings (tribute) to the God of Israel therefore could not be part the Gog-Magog confederacy.
The Emmaus Group believes our deliverance from Europe was God’s will for this nation, for His word does not return void but will perform what He purposes, in the thing for which He sent it (Isaiah 55:11). So be encouraged, but also understand such revelation highlights the times we’re in. Time is now very short and Britain will soon be humbled. What we are witnessing before our very eyes reflects both prophecy and the list of nations in Ezekiel 38. Continue reading →
A mightily inspiring word to Veronika West that also confirms earlier words through others on the spiritual link across ‘the Pond’ (click title for link to her facebook).:
“A MIGHTY RIVER OF GOLD AND SILVER; THE POWER OF GLORY AND REDEMPTION IS SHIFTING AND RESHAPING THE NATIONS IN THIS HOUR “!
‘Today (11 Nov) while praying for the Nations, suddenly a very powerful vision opened up before me where I saw a large gold hand coming out of the Nation of America, I watched closely as the gold hand reached up high into the heavens.
‘Then suddenly I saw a large silver hand coming out of the United Kingdom and it too reached up high into the heavens, I watched intently as the silver hand of the United Kingdom and the gold hand of America came together and began to shake hands and as the two hands shook, I felt the earth tremble and the ground beneath my feet began to move and shift.
‘Then suddenly out of heavens came a third large hand, but it was a hand of blazing fire, I watched as the hand of fire came to rest upon the shaking hands of silver and gold, Suddenly the blazing hand of fire intensified in heat causing the hand of silver and the hand of gold to melt, I watched closely as the two precious metals melted into one another forming one mighty river of molten gold and silver.
‘And then I heard these words, “UNITY AND FREEDOM, GLORY AND REDEMPTION”
‘Then I watched as the river moved with great force and in great power, I watched as the river of gold and silver suddenly turned and broke forth upon the Nations of the earth and wherever the river of gold and silver flowed the mighty waters rose causing the landscape to be changed and transformed, then I watched closely as great fires broke out upon these Nations, the blazing fires of purification and revival, fires that will not be quenched but will only burn brighter and brighter.
‘Then suddenly out of the heavens I heard these words,
“WATCH! FOR THE NATION OF AMERICA AND THE UNITED KINGDOM SHALL SHAKE HANDS AND THE TWO SHALL FORM A STRONG ALLIANCE AND THE TWO SHALL BECOME ONE IN PURPOSE, ONE IN VISION AND ONE IN GREAT VICTORY.
“WATCH! FOR THE RIVER OF MY GLORY AND REDEMPTION SHALL NOW FLOW FORTH UPON THE NATIONS CAUSING A TIDAL WAVE OF TRANSFORMATION AND CHANGE, FOR EVEN IN THIS HOUR BELOVED THE POWER OF MY GLORY AND REDEMPTION IS SHIFTING AND RESHAPING THE LANDSCAPE OF THESE GREAT NATIONS AND THE FIRES OF PURIFICATION AND REVIVAL SHALL BURN, BURN, BURN”, says God.’
Having voted ‘Yes’ in the referendum to join the Common Market but soon finding it was a con-trick, and living for 40 years under its increasing totalitarianism and confirmation we were bamboozled into it, I regret that personal act of globalist altruism – but I’ve now done my bit in rectifying that juvenile folly.
Furthermore, we’ve found empirical evidence for the will of God on this momentous issue as revealed prophetically on nearly 20 occasions for the past 15 years! (A triple-word from Switzerland 12 years ago is the latest addition to that collection – as here – AND part of which is confirmed by a vision one of my readers, Tony in Tucson, reported on 21st July last – see Direction!! Also, only this weekend did a sister confide that the Lord had directed her to vote to leave EU!!!
Likewise, I’ve also been closely watching events in the USA since the Millennium, if not earlier, and seen severe deterioration there since the Lord blessed me with revelation in 2009 that The End-game Is Now In Play.
Then this weekend brought some heart-warming reading. Back in the early 70’s I was diving deeply into New Age ideals and increasingly contemptuous of traditional religious doctrines and values. They’d become obsolete and it was imperative for worldwide society to adopt those of the new globalist god, otherwise civilization was doomed to deteriorate.
Before relating what I read let me clarify something just in case any visitor or subscriber may misunderstand my meaning of the photo and post Fulfilled Prophecies #12. The photo of Prime Minister Theresa May being alone on the US president’s podium does not mean she will personally be of influence upon our ally – and complete lack of any political connections between our government and Donald Trump and his campaign team is the clearest attestation of lack of political influence upon him or the US’ democratic process.(The weekend’s leading newspapers were awash with this breaking major story in UK.)
No, that photo doesn’t have any political significance. It implies a prophetical and therefore spiritual connection related to the will of our heavenly Father being done on earth through our two nations.
AND, the totally unexpected upheaval in both nations as a result of democratic action is so utterly uncanny that it must signify the Lord’s active involvement, as postulated in Is Brexit an ‘Act of God’? Yes but it Challenges Churches!
Let’s look at a couple of reactions to the US election from Prophecy Today UK. Revd Dr Clifford Hill in Trump Triumphs shares his analysis and thoughts, noting “An American President who is a friend of Israel could be extremely significant for the future of world events”.
However, I particularly want to quote that site’s American correspondent’s response to the election result because it relates directly to and confirms not only my above reference to globalism but also points out its danger, and thereby augments my tripartite blog on The Fatal Flaw in Western Society (posted July 2015).
On the premise that US’ and UK’s citizens seem to have have been fast-tracked for the past 10 years toward incorporation into a one-world government, here are extracts from Linda Louis-Vanreed’s Is God Giving the US a Second Chance?
A Global Worldview
Most people do not have a clear understanding of the realities of globalism. It seems the common narrative stems from what the media has delivered to us – globalism as a way in which everyone in the world can end division and come together as one, to help one another prosper and become ‘better’ people. What they do not understand is that for globalism to exist, certain conditions must be met.
The first condition is that the concept of God must die. We must become ‘enlightened’ and realise that this life on this planet is all there is and all that is possible. We must believe we are all ‘accidental’ beings, not intentionally created by a superior Being.
When we remove God, it is the same as removing the concept of ‘zero.’ In arithmetic, the existence of ‘zero’ acts as the centre point that creates value for all the other numbers, whether they are +1 or -9. Without the zero, numbers have no reference point or concrete value.
God acts as our ‘zero’ point, if you will. Because God exists, we have value, we have a referent for ultimate truth – and therefore, we also have moral reference. Without moral reference there is no direction for the guidance of either family or society.
Freedom Without God?
When we acknowledge God, we are able to experience true freedom as we walk in relation to his Being, his Truth. Our freedom comes from this relationship. But without God, the burden for moral parameters falls upon man. Without God, there is no ‘zero’ point to give us value, so our morals and personal values become situationally relative.
According to those who denounce the need for moral referents, situational relativism should produce ultimate freedom. Every human should be ‘free’ to act in any way he/she wishes, being responsible only for his/her individual sense of value and freedom. But deprived of any moral referents, man’s thoughts and actions fluctuate constantly, fomenting instability.
When there is instability there can be no peace. Therefore, the only way to achieve peace is to create a referent. A created referent or moral base must be established either by populist whim (which is constantly in flux) or by a decree from a self-installed ‘elite’. For the globalist, a populist/democratic rule is far too unpredictable and potentially unenlightened to be sustainable and/or sufferable…
‘Globalism is presented as a way in which everyone in the world can end division and come together as one, to help one another prosper. But it requires certain conditions, including the removal of God.’
A New World Order
Once all of our freedoms are brought under global control, we will have a new world order, free from religion, individual expression or thought. There will be a ruling class, and it will not be us. Marx understood this. Lenin understood this. Saul Alinsky understood this. Hillary Rodham Clinton, a student of both Karl Marx and Saul Alinsky, and a self-declared globalist, understands this. For almost 40 years she has fought to make for herself a place at the table, no matter what, or who, it costs.
Donald Trump, a man who was raised in and has heavily contributed to the success of America’s free-market society, who apparently sees the dangers of globalism, may well think differently...
I could continue with insights from the accredited Christian correspondent at The White House, William Koenig. However, all I’ll say is I’m very pleased to once again subscribe to his weekly Eye View From The White House, to which I’d ceased because it was so dispiriting to read the antics of the Obama/Clinton/Kerry brigade, most of which is now in his book Revealed, Obama’s Legacy.
Thank you to Suzanne Payne of UK Prophetic Words and especially to Dave Hood for this link to an important prophetic word from Heidi Baker of Iris Global ministries.
Heidi foretells the Lord’s appearing in dreams to Muslims, Sikhs and Buddhists across the UK, which will be talked about within their communities – God’s going to start showing up as ‘The Man in White’.
They will, therefore, seek an understanding and, says Heidi,
“The Lord is going to allow the Church to explain in the most glorious way who He is, not just in words but with actions and in Truth.
“I feel like there’s going to be an Awakening again…”
She goes on the speak prophetically about the Church being filled with the Love of Christ and taking it outside church buildings, moving into communities and neighbourhoods and ‘taking and sharing tea’ with those who’ve come from other nations, whom the Lord has brought into Britain, especially a radical move among Sikhs, “the Sikhs are going to seek!” and the Church needs to position itself for this, to get ready and not wait but go out – as in the word on A New Move of God and Unity she brought two years ago. But now she says,
“I see a radical move, a radical move in the Anglican Church. The Lord says the Anglican Church is going to be woken up afresh – there’s going to be a fresh fire – a fresh wind – a fresh baptism – a fresh move. I see the Anglican Church awakening, awakening, awakening, awakening, awakening.
“I see thousands and thousands and thousands of people who were baptised as babies being claimed by the Father and they’re literally coming home to the Father’s House.
“I see these old cold buildings, old cold buildings, ablaze with the fires of love, ablaze with fires of love and God – WOHHH there’s going to be an awakening in the Anglican Church, there’s going to be so much fire and so much Presence and there’s going to be no place for barriers, no place for division, no place for “Who are you and where were you ordained?” – they’re going to be calling you from (various) churches saying “Help, help, help us, help us!”
She continues by saying the Lord tells us not to call seminaries ‘cemeteries’ any more because He says,
“Call them up to be raised from the dead for I’m about to visit the cemeteries and the seminaries”, says the Lord…
“I’m going to visit, I’m going to visit and I’m going to cause even cold hearts to burn with fire…get ready, get ready, I’m going to send you out to the left, send you out to the right…”
This also reminds me of the word received at Ffald-y-Brenin in 2014 that the Lord is calling and resurrecting the Anglican Church out of its grave, as with Lazarus. (See this post, and this one for my subsequent observations on that promise.)
Also, on 30th October Dave Hood emailed these comments:
‘I don’t know if you have seen the Heidi Baker video but about 9 days ago, before I saw this video I had been praying and Psalm 133 came to mind and all of a sudden I get a picture of The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby – he is wearing white ceremonial full length robes, with some light coloured trim sewn on the edges as well as his mitre.
‘And he has a look of utter ecstasy on his face and he is absolutely drunk in the Spirit, just about standing, but his robes from the top of his mitre to the full length of his robes are completely covered with the Holy oil of the Spirit. So unctuous and thick is this oil it is like honey, viscous and full and it’s just dripping every where the hem of his robes is just leaving this wonderful wake, not a wake of death but a wake, wave of life, as he
gathers himself moving forward. I just sensed there was an anointing coming from the head of the church, the Lord Jesus, to, the head of the Anglican church in this nation. It was more than personal to Justin, it was personal to the Anglican church and this nation … and maybe this nation’s body as a whole …
‘but Psalm 133 was key, it was the unity.
‘So when I hear Heidi in this video clip prophesying re the Anglican church, I’m made up, but…as I continue to listen …God recalls to me what we have been studying in Acts about 3 weeks earlier.:
‘We had been sharing in Acts chapter 10 where we were looking at Cornelius and the opening of the door to the Gentile nations. We sensed and heard … that the call from Noah and his 3 sons at Ararat, was our call … in that Noah under covenant, as we, was
to go forth and multiply fill the earth after the flood and how our call is to go to the nations unto every ethnic group.
‘You are aware of my feeling regarding this nation having (to be) been turned upside down and resurrected, like the iron axe head RE- floating, its iron head being a raised Titanic, like Mark’s second opportunity, and how this resurrected and upturned, and over, iceberg of an island UK was to take our Lord Jesus, its King, to the harvest, the fields of Europe’s spiritual tundra … to subdue Europe’s king Baal and plunder his household, his servants, for believers and servants to Christ but as I watched the video clip … I heard the Lord say, from something, that 3 weeks earlier,
“Yes Europe will be saved, and I will send her Britannia made great, to aide me in my work, but I will also let you see, that those nations you would venture to … I will show you I have brought them to your door,”
‘…and immediately I understood the many various, not just nationalities that had flooded our shores, but the very many ethnic groups within those groups would also be present
‘so you can image the joy that God was preparing for these travellers, the alien, the widows, the orphans and the prodigals to his table, here in this our nation and land …
‘Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever. To the praise and glory of God for ever and ever. Amen’
Footnote: All this is particularly interesting because whilst discussing the purpose of a proposed new church in our diocese, the recently ordained deacon and Director of an Anglican healing foundation mentioned the bishop told him that ++Justin tells bishops to preach Jesus – which is what one would expect!
Come a short journey back in time with me, back to a fortnight ago today – Friday 21st October…
At about the same time in the morning I set off home from Alton High Street, Hampshire, with a couple of goodies to have with our morning coffee, 4500 miles over ‘the pond’ pastor John Kilpatrick was being awakened in the night by the Lord.
As Nina’s forearm and hand were encased in plaster we weren’t chilling out for our usual Friday morning in Caffe Nero, but I’d managed to get there quickly and visit other shops so as not to be late getting back home – and so I looked my watch at 10:25 am.
Later, when we got to bite our ‘butties’ at lunch-time, would have been about the time pastor got a phone call – around daybreak there! (These time differences make our lives so interesting.)
Later again, after our afternoon ‘cuppa’, we hooked up to live streaming for the first 10:00 am morning session of the ‘Awake Deborah’ conference on 20th to 22nd October at Church of His Presence in Daphne, Alabama.
Later in their day, Pastor John popped into the evening session to tell them about what the Lord had given him before daybreak. WOW, the ladies must have taken off! When we ‘attended’ the next morning’s session they were still flying high in prophetic intercessory declarations!
“While I was sound asleep the Lord woke me up about 4:30 and He said, “The wind has shifted!”
“The last time I heard that was last December but, as soon as I woke up and I heard the Lord say that, I listened and I heard the wind whistling through the windows of my house and the wind picked up. It wasn’t the natural wind that the Lord was talking about: it was some kind of another wind!
“About 7 o’clock – my phone rang around about daylight, and it was a preacher friend and evangelist who called me and said, ‘I couldn’t wait to call you and I’ve probably woken you up…’ No….he said, ‘The Lord wanted me to call you and tell you about the wind…and He wanted to start talking about the wind’.
“I said, ‘Yeah, four thirty this morning the Lord spoke to me about the wind, He said the wind’s shifted. He (the friend) said, ‘Did you know they presented the Nobel Prize for Literature to Bob Dylan? They’ve never given it to a songwriter before but they gave it to him because they said that song that he wrote, the poetry and lyrics of that song have been so lasting – the name of the song is ‘The answer is ‘Blowin’ In The Wind’?’ And I said I knew that and he went on ‘Brother John, there’s something about the wind today!’.
“Later, that afternoon, one of my staff members emailed me and showed me where Chuck Pierce and Dutch Sheets was up in Maryland, and Chuck Pierce gave a word about the wind on that very day and the Lord said the winds have been blowing in the heavens for the last eight years, and He said, “I’m about the let those winds reach the earth and they’re going to start blowing”….Go ahead, give God praise!
John soon continued,
“I know that so many people are overly concerned – I’m really concerned myself. I’m not worried but I’m concerned about two weeks this coming Tuesday – but you have to know that the Lord knows. You have to understand that the Lord knows, everything is right on schedule – nothing takes Him by surprise! – God never scurries, He never hurries – He’s never in an emergency, He knows everything…
“I have to believe that there’s something going on, there’s no telling what kind of things are going to take place that we don’t even know about yet – we just don’t know. The only thing I want you to assure you with is, the Lord woke me up and said the wind’s shifting.
“That means things have somehow been going along a certain way but last Friday (21st October) things shifted and that will show up real soon, whatever it is will show up real soon.
“Chuck Pierce also gave the word – and Dutch shared it when he was here – that the Lord said there’s going to be confusion and great confusion up until October 20th – that was the day the ladies started their ‘Awake Deborah’ conference here and the next morning was when the Lord woke me up to say, “The wind has shifted”…
“I keep quoting Chuck and I believe he’s a prophet of the Lord, and Dutch says he’s the most accurate prophet he’s ever heard…he’s never known him to be wrong – I have to agree.” John then refers to when he received a personal word that happened exactly as he told him.
“So between now and Tuesday in two weeks we need to be in prayer.”
Listen to Chuck deliver this important prophetic word on ‘turning-point winds’ for re–arranging nations.:
On a personal note, we’ve met and heard Chuck on several occasions and many of the words he’s brought (especially of 2013 about this year and the 7 July 2005 attacks in London) are in this blog’s Library as well as under this tag.
Further to references in the USA to a possible constitutional crisis, and in view of Great Britain’s forthcoming independence from the European Union, a sensible solution has been found for avoiding a breakdown of US government business, as happened during investigations into the Watergate scandal. Now hear this 😉
A MESSAGE FROM THE QUEEN
To the Citizens of the United States of America from Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
In light of your failure to nominate competent candidates for President of the USA and thus to govern yourselves, we hereby give notice of the revocation of your independence, effective immediately.
Her Sovereign Majesty Queen Elizabeth II will resume monarchical duties over all states, commonwealths and territories (except North Dakota, which she does not fancy).
Your new Prime Minister will appoint a Governor for America without the need for further elections.
Congress and the Senate will be disbanded. A questionnaire may be circulated next year to determine whether any of you noticed.
To aid in the transition to a British Crown dependency, the following rules are introduced with immediate effect:
1. The letter ‘U’ will be reinstated in words such as ‘colour,’ ‘favour,’ ‘labour’, ‘neighbour, etc, etc.’ Likewise, you will learn to spell ‘doughnut’ without skipping half the letters, and the suffix ‘-ize’ will be replaced by the suffix ‘-ise.’ Generally, you will be expected to raise your vocabulary to acceptable levels.
2. Using the same twenty-seven words interspersed with filler noises such as ”like” and “you know” is an unacceptable and inefficient form of communication. There is no such thing as U.S. English. We will let Microsoft know on your behalf. The Microsoft spell-checker will be adjusted to take into account the reinstated letter ‘u” and the elimination of ‘-ize.’
3. July 4th will no longer be celebrated as a holiday.
4. You will learn to resolve personal issues without using guns, lawyers or therapists. The fact that you need so many lawyers and therapists shows that you’re not quite ready to be independent. Guns should only be used for shooting grouse. If you can’t sort things out without suing someone or speaking to a therapist, then you’re not ready to shoot grouse.
5. Therefore, you will no longer be allowed to own or carry anything more dangerous than a vegetable peeler. A permit will be required if you wish to carry a vegetable peeler in public.
6. All intersections will be replaced with roundabouts and you will start driving on the left side with immediate effect.
At the same time, you will go metric with immediate effect and use imperial measure. Both roundabouts and metrication will help you understand the British sense of humour.
7. The former USA will adopt UK prices on petrol (which you have been calling gasoline) of roughly $10/US gallon. Get used to it.
8. You will learn to make real chips. French fries are not real chips, and those things you insist on calling potato chips are properly called crisps. Real chips are thick cut, fried in animal fat, and dressed not with catsup but with vinegar.
9. The cold, tasteless stuff you insist on calling beer is not actually beer at all. Henceforth, only proper British Bitter will be referred to as ‘beer’, and European brews of known and accepted provenance will be referred to as ‘lager’. South African beer is also acceptable, as they are pound-for-pound the greatest sporting nation on earth and it can only be due to the beer. They are also part of the British Commonwealth – see what it did for them. American brands will be referred to as Near-Frozen Gnat’s Urine, so that all can be sold without risk of further confusion.
10. Hollywood will also be required to cast English actors to play English characters and will be required occasionally to cast English actors as good guys.
Watching Andie Macdowell attempt an English dialect in Four Weddings and a Funeral was an experience akin to having one’s ears removed with a cheese grater.
11. You will cease playing American football. There is only one kind of proper football; you call it soccer.
Those of you brave enough will, in time, be allowed to play rugby (which has some similarities to American football, but does not involve stopping for a rest every twenty seconds or wearing full kevlar body armour like a bunch of nancies).
12. Further, you will stop playing baseball. It is not reasonable to host an event called the World Series for a game which is not played outside of America. Since only 2.1% of you are aware there is a world beyond your borders, your error is understandable.
You will learn cricket and we will let you face the South Africans first to take the sting out of their deliveries.
13. You must tell us who killed JFK. It’s been driving us mad.
14. An internal revenue agent (ie. tax collector) from Her Majesty’s Government will be with you shortly to ensure the acquisition of all monies due (backdated to 1776).
15. Daily Tea Time begins promptly at 4 pm. with proper cups and their matching saucers, never mugs, with high quality biscuits (cookies, as you may continue naming them) and cakes; plus strawberries (with cream) when in season.
God Save The Queen!!!!
PS. this repeats a Facebook joke posted in 2011 and currently circulating on email.
Managing editor of ProphecyTodayUK, Frances Rabbits encourages comments upon and sharing the website’s articles, and she opens her weekly email update as follows,
‘As anti-Brexit rhetoric streams from the mainstream media and anti-Israel rhetoric gushes from the UN, there has never been a more important time to stand up for truth – clearly, courageously and without compromise.
I hope that our articles this week are a help to you, in praying and living with understanding of these significant days. In particular, we would like to encourage all our readers to keep praying over the Brexit process – for the enemy loves to try to thwart the plans of the Lord.’
Read about anti-democratic activity and anti-God purposes proposed for Parliament and the necessity for Christians to continue praying in Brexit Battles Begin. Friends have informed me in recent months of dreams and visions of serious damage being done to the Palace of Westminster and Big Ben clock tower, all indicative of the current struggles.
Surely the Lord must have arranged for two items ‘coincidentally’ in my in-tray today. They’re from separate sources but their contents are connected and thus stress in my spirit their import. AND it strongly resonates with the content of my post 7th April: The Four Faces of God and Unity:
First, take especial note of what Father’s House of Prayer intercessor Lynne describes in her email sent last night:
“…I was watching the news and Theresa May came on at the [Conservative Party’s annual] conference and I hadn’t realised it was being held at the NIA in Birmingham. What came to me is they are in the same room that the WPC Trumpet Call is held in and it’s also the site of the Old Bingley Hall and when they demolished it they found wheelchairs, leg braces, crutches etc., in the cellar from the days of George Jeffreys visits to Birmingham in the 50’s. …I also remember that on the day of the referendum I had decided come what may I was going to the WPC because…I’d never been able to go to their premises. Anyway, when I got off the train at the revamped New Street Station, now known as Central Station, and started to walk into the new dome part, I was stopped in my tracks! – I could feel the Holy Spirit. The only way I can describe it is whirling and swirling around, never ever experienced anything like that it my life.
“And I’m just thinking of the prayers offered in that place and in the WPC also about Father saying in one of the prophecies that Birmingham was the heart of prayer. Might not be anything but it just keeps coming.”
[NIA is the National Indoor Arena – for information on WPC click World Prayer Centre.]
Secondly, yesterday’s Facebook posting by seer Veronika West of this exceptionally powerful and encouraging vision:
A WORD FOR THE UNITED KINGDOM!
“DAUGHTER WATCH! AS MY 7 SPIRITS BEGIN TO MOVE MIGHTILY, STRATEGICALLY AND IN AN UNPRECEDENTED WAY IN THE NEXT 7 MONTHS UPON THERESA MAY, FOR I AM BRINGING TO FULLNESS, COMPLETION AND PERFECTION MY KINGDOM PLANS AND PURPOSES UPON THE 7 MOUNTAINS OF INFLUENCE IN THIS NATION”, says God.
On hearing these words, I saw a divine visitation and a divine encounter taking place in the life of Theresa May, the next 7 months will not only be a life-changing 7 months for Theresa May personally and spiritually but it will be a key time and a crucial time prophetically for us as a Nation.
THINGS ARE ABOUT TO BE TURNED UPSIDE DOWN AND INSIDE OUT, GOD IS ABOUT TO REVEAL HIS GLORY AND POWER IN A NEW WAY THAT WE HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
In the next 7 months as a Nation we are going to see the 7 Spirits of God begin to move mightily and suddenly upon the 7 mountains of Influence in the land, there will be such an acceleration and momentum taking place in the realms of the spirit that it will cause a mighty shifting and shaking to take place especially over the mountain of Government, Religion and Family, I hear these words, “A Special Forces Army of Mighty Awakeners and Reformers are now emerging and advancing in greater power and authority over the 7 mountains of influence, not by might, nor by power but by My Spirit you shall reclaim what has been stolen, recover what has been lost and revive what has been dead, as My Special Forces Army you shall rebuild the ancient ruins, pursue and overtake your enemies, overturn and overthrow every stronghold and throne of darkness, you shall occupy new ground and establish My Kingdom purposes of in the land”.
I Prophesy Over the next 7 months we will see the 7 Spirits of God moving in an unprecedented and unexpected way in our Nation, we will see and feel the tangible Power of His Glory gaining even greater momentum and acceleration over every sphere of influence, there will be a sudden manifestation of even greater Signs, Wonders and Miracles that will be birthed right across this Great Nation.
I Decree, In this next 7 months many in the body Christ in this Nation will begin to receive a new level and a new dimension of supernatural sight, divine wisdom, kingdom strategy and supernatural revelation. BE EXPECTANT AND BE READY? For God is releasing a finishers anointing for mighty Breakthrough in this hour and season, His Image Bearers are being freshly empowered and enabled to stand steadfast and strong against the powers of increasing darkness, I believe the hand of God is bringing to fullness and completion in this season what He started in the last season, and those that have been living in isolation and in the darkness of the caves shall suddenly Arise, Shine and go forth to reflect the true light, likeness, life and Power of the King of Glory, and like a moth to a flame those that have been living in deep darkness will suddenly see a great light and they will be drawn out and delivered from the pit of death and destruction. We will See and Testify to the Spirit of Truth removing the scales that have blinded many to their true Identity and Kingdom Destiny in this Nation, true Sonship is now being birthed.
Watch! For In the next 7 months many will see the Unquenchable Fires of God sweeping across our Nation, many will hear the sound of mighty rushing waters as the Rivers of Life and Liberty flow forth from their bellies upon a dry and parched land, many will see great mountains being Levelled and deep valleys being filled, many will feel the mighty Winds of His Resurrection Power beginning to blow upon the dry bones in this Nation, many will feel and experience the breath of Heaven breathing new life and new vision over that which has laid spiritually dormant and decayed.
Here below is a word I posted exactly 7 months ago I feel it is significant for the season we have now entered into as a Nation.: Continue reading →
Originally posted on 24th May 2014 this prophetic vision is now featured on the home page in view of June’s successful referendum for Britain to leave the EU:
Fantastic! Thank you Lord for this blessing to my friend Tony in Tucson. A later post refers to a similar picture on a card for guests at the previous year’s Christmas breakfast, where my wife had brought a message: On The Majesty of His Majesty, King of Kings.
I saw in a vision 05/23/2014, the country of England rise up but not completely out of the water, it seemed to become more prominent than it had before. I saw a crown above the country sort of like the one pictured below but instead this one was covered with what looked like diamonds and light seemed to be radiating from the crown as it hovered over the country and giving that same light to the country.
“Yours, O LORD is the greatness, the power and the glory, the victory and the majesty; for all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours; Yours is the kingdom O LORD and You are exalted as head over all.” (1 Chronicles 29:11)
We decree that YOU, O GOD, ARE THE EXALTED HEAD OVER ALL THE BRITISH ISLES AND EVERY NATION OF THE WORLD, that YOURS IS THE GREATNESS, THE POWER AND THE GLORY, THE VICTORY AND THE MAJESTY.
Aaronic Blessing: The Lord bless you and keep you, The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you, The Lord lift up His countenance toward you and give you peace. Thus, we put His name upon you and He will bless you (Numbers 6:24-27).
We bless the British Isles with knowing that Jesus is the exalted head over all, that He is Almighty God and that His is the greatness, the power and the glory, the victory and the majesty. We bless the people of the British Isles with the joy of knowing Jesus as their personal Saviour.
Plus the Lord’s Prayer and the Prayer of Protection. This completes the 70-day prayers.
NB: See Day 1 for scriptural principles of decrees and blessings, plus some background.
“Therefore, God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Philippians 2: 9-11)
We decree that: JESUS CHRIST IS LORD, TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER, and that HIS NAME IS ABOVE EVERY OTHER NAME. AT HIS NAME EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW AND EVERY TONGUE CONFESS THAT “JESUS IS LORD”, TO THE GLORY OF GOD. WE DECREE THAT THE GOVERNMENT OF THE BRITISH ISLES IS ON HIS SHOULDERS!
Aaronic Blessing: The Lord bless you and keep you, The Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you, The Lord lift up His countenance toward you and give you peace. Thus, we put His name upon you and He will bless you (Numbers 6:24-27).
We bless the nations and islands of the British Isles with knowing and believing that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father, and we bless them with bowing the knee to the name of Jesus.
