Birmingham, 16th January – Exposing the spirits of jezebel & antichrist

Harvest Church eventOver lunch with William Smith, author of Feasting on the Father and his wife Susanna yesterday we discussed the undesirable and adverse effect of church leaders who let a controlling, religious spirit – which is demonic and thus divisive – quench things of the Holy Spirit within church; even resulting in churches splitting up!  Now hasn’t that been a strategy of satan since the days of the first disciples and throughout church history?

There are even well-intentioned prayer meetings that study the Word of God supposing certain scriptures as suitable for the purposes of intercession, but which are adamant in not listening to what the Lord has to say, as though blocking ears when direct words or pictures are brought from the Lord!  As Dr Sharon Stone oft states: “The religious spirit hates the spirit of prophecy” (let’s recall Revelation 19:10 – the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy).

So the news of an event I received the same morning, which would enable the Bride to discern and overcome the adversary’s strategies and facilitate moving into the new era of the church, would be exceptionally timely, essential instruction and ministry:

Harvest Ministries recommends Exposing the Spirits of Jezebel and of Antichrist to anyone in church leadership of any kind, is involved in the prophetic or has a healing ministry. Harvest Ministries is associated with The Revival Alliance.

This one day event is hosted by Harvest Ministries with teaching by Wes Boxall, who has pastored for over 20 years. He has done extensive research into the spirits of Jezebel, Anti-Chris and Mammon. He has discovered, startlingly, these spirits directly oppose and counterfeit the Godhead! These divisive spirits would like nothing more than to tear-down, divide, exhaust and otherwise incapacitate the church.

This day is likely be as shocking as it is informative!

However we, as the church, cannot afford to allow these spirits to influence our lives. As we step up, and step out, into our destinies and spiritual gifts, we must be on guard and resist the enemy.

Prophetic words on the New Season

Thank you to Prophetic Releasers for UK Revival and Angela Samuel and Chris Bennet for these edifying words that confirm others recently published on this blog.:

New Life

As I went into my town shopping today I looked at the sky and the sun, I heard the Lord say,
“See the New thing I do now, there is a new way of living coming, stay close to the River of life, move as the wind moves, I bring New life, your dead bones they will live, call forth what you see from the end, keep the vision in front of your eyes, the unseen will be seen in your lives, the change is coming. Keep your eyes fixed on me, let the Glory of the Lord be seen in everything you do. I Am all that you need.”

Angela Samuel, 7th November

New Wind

There is a new wind about to start blowing. It is a new wind of the Holy Spirit that will bring many new things into focus for us. This “New Ruach” will blow away many things too, the main thing being the veils of deception that are invading the church today. There will be a new clarity in our view of world and end-time events and we will find ourselves saying, “I wonder why we didn’t see that before?” This new clarity will shake us and all our preconceived ideas of how the Lord is going to move in these coming days. It will also cause our rooms and buildings to shake as we comprehend the mighty purposes of our God.

This new wind will blow away all our cobwebs that we have been clinging on to for so long. Holy Spirit is coming as a wind to bring us anointing, ministry gifts, prophecies, and much more. Does not His Word say, “Behold, I am beginning a new thing. Do you not see it springing up?” This wind is blowing the false away as He brings this new clarity and anointing to bear in our everyday lives.

Prepare yourselves for this wind to manifest these coming days and weeks. This is a literal wind, and it will blow in your meetings whether large or small; whether two or three, or several hundred. “I am coming to you soon”, says the Lord. “It is time to separate wheat and tares, and to anoint those prepared to carry the whirlwind of My presence into the world. It is time to begin the new work I have for those committed to My cause. The wind of My Spirit is coming to you today.”

Chris Bennett, 8th November

RB Note: It certainly seems this newness is coming into churches in our area. When I received the email notification I’d been thinking about changes the Lord is bringing about within His body that some are struggling with because the spirit of religiosity strongly hinders their moving into new ways.

“It was one of the most profound words I’ve ever been given” – the USA in heaven’s court

RJBThe above quotation is Simon Braker’s on Facebook to me about that most remarkable dream of judgement and the Lord’s decision to send a great revival.

Last night I sensed the Lord wants me to re-emphasis the dream’s significance just in case any American reader or visitor to this blog may not yet have had opportunity to read and consider it.

Hence, this short note in case you may wish to read and be blessed by it; in which case please click here.

I was particularly interested that its publication followed close on the heels of hearing revivalist Pat Schatzline. I’d reported upon the main part of his message in my 3-part post on boasting over Jesus, in which I quoted his rejection of all ‘doom and gloom’  prophecies but left out his own on revival for another blog.

Therefore, I’d encourage everyone now reading Simon’s dream to follow that up with what Pat brought, as in Revival in the USA. In my humble opinion they’re directly connected. You may also like to note in the comments to that post a poetic prophecy brought a year earlier by Jerry Savelle.

May you be mightily blessed…

Revival in the USA – a prophetical perspective from ‘over The Pond’

Sphere of EnergyThe possibility of a fresh Holy Spirit-led revival in the United States seems far-fetched in view of the deep spiritual darkness there and its being long overdue for holy judgement – but…

In the last week we’ve noted prophetic words about a revival coming to the USA, as in Simon Braker’s dream in Leicester, and changes for the church as in posts on James Bailey and Chuck Pierce in America. I’d like to add to these with an update as well as to list earlier posts on this subject for ease of reference.

Let’s not forget that many prophetical voices consider the injunction brought by prophet  Isaiah applies today for Spirit-led Christians:

‘Arise and shine for your light has come and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon YOU. Nations will come to your light and kings to the brightness of your dawn…’ (Isaiah 60:1-3)

Endless Bridge by Evgeni DenevLast year I started blogging about visitors to Britain noticing good changes in our spiritual atmosphere. So why not ‘turn the tables’ by giving my perspective from here on a coming revival in America? Several times I’ve noted  similarities between what’s been prophetically heard and declared here and over there, as in posts bearing ‘Bridge_o’Pond’ tag.

Revival on the Gulf Coast

JohnK 214_logoSoon after opening worship on Sunday 18th October at Church of His Presence in Alabama, pastor Kilpatrick spoke about the necessity of buying adjoining land for extending their new premises.

“What’s that got to do with revival?” you may well ask!

Had it not been for local residents’ recent opposition that land would have been sold for industrial development. Last year, CHP had been mightily blessed with being able to buy and build there within months, thereby no longer needing to hire facilities in Mobile Convention Centre.

Bear in mind also that the Lord blessed pastor John with hosting not one but TWO Holy Spirit led revivals: in 1995, a repentance revival in Brownsville, Pensacola, Florida and, in 2010, The Bay of the Holy Spirit healing revival in Daphne, Alabama. Remarkably both started on Fathers’ Day of their respective year.

That morning Pat Schatzline preached upon the fourth man in the fiery furnace and ‘bragging on Jesus’, as reported here and here. Those posts focussed upon what the Lord had stressed to him on the importance of praising Him in these times. In avoiding over-complication I didn’t tell about an important prophetic word for revival with which Pat opened his message (at 1:39:30 of this video),

“Praise Him…we’re not done here, we’re not done praising! You have no idea what I’m about to preach on. Some of you know I have a sleep disorder called ‘revelation’…

“A few days ago when pastor called me…I was praying after you called and asked me to come. I was supposed to be in Ohio but the Holy Spirit said “You’re to go”! How many of you know when ‘a father’ calls, you go? That’s the rule…

“But I was praying about this property and I saw that new area and the Lord said, “Revival is to come from that land”.

“That’s what He spoke to me. He said this house will raise up revivalists that will touch the world.

Of course, some cynically presume he’s just trying to raise finance, but says he…

“No, no, no, for we’re living in intense times. And just as there’s many ‘preppers’ out there, it’s time to prepare the way for revival.

He’s coming! A move of the Spirit’s coming to America. God’s not done with America yet   – I’m a missionary to America. I so deeply honour this house and know this general’s motives that the Lord spoke to me early this morning, “The camels are coming!”…”

Pat says, as blogged earlier, he’s been on an intense journey with the Lord for over a year because He promised, “If you’ll allow me to take you to the places of revival, you’ll be part of the next one”. Pat continues,

“I was standing over there a minute ago and asked the Lord to bend me…I prayed then I felt the hand of God hit me and He started pushing me over! I’ve never had that happen to me before” (Pat indicates a doubling over)…

People are going to come from north, south, east and west – not just to come and be part of this church; that’s not  what it’s about – but they’re going to come in here because they need to be washed, to have an encounter, to have their cognitive dissonance ripped off, scales broke off of them – this is a Restoration Place of the Lord – and I’m  telling you from the Holy Spirit we’ve seen nothing yet…we’ve seen nothing yet!

“And it’s not by chance that one of my heroes is here: Jeri Hill’s here today (evangelist Steve Hill’s widow)…there’s another wave of the Spirit that’s coming – it was prophesied 50 miles to the west of Brownsville: right here!

“Now why’m I telling you that – because in the next few minutes I’m going to brag on God…(as in More biblical boasting on Jesus.)

On the coming Revivals

For information purposes, revivals prophesied for the USA are covered in earlier posts, as below. The sequence is in chronological order of events (date format dd.mm.yy):

  • John Kilpatrick (1986): If you preach what I give you and preach it unafraid and un-intimidated on television…I will open the heavens from the I10 all along this Gulf coast.” (Then 1993): “I’m about to open the heavens over Pensacola. I’m about to pour out My Spirit in this place, but first you must make it a house of prayer.” (Revivals in the USA cont’d.)
  • Dr Yonggi Cho (1993): “I’m not going to judge, I’m not going to bring My judgment on America, I’m going to pour out My Spirit. Get your atlas out of your attaché case and point! – I’m going to pour out My Spirit first in Pensacola, it will burn like a match-head, fiery, there and it will go west along the I10 to the Mississippi river, (Spanish, ‘River of The Holy Spirit’). Then it will back up along the Gulf coast, go down the peninsular of Florida, go up the Eastern seaboard and come down into the Mid-West and South-West and shoot out through the North-West; and before My Coming ALL of America will be ablaze with The glory of God!” (Revivals in the USA cont’d.)
  • Tony Puccio (3.9.10): vision of a coming wave of the Holy Spirit to the US.
  • Tony Puccio (22.1.14): A couple of visions about Revival in the USA.
  • Dutch Sheets (3.7.14): 4th July and a Third Great Awakening.
  • Joel Rosenberg (13.11.14): 46,000 churches called to ‘extraordinary prayer’.
  • John Kilpatrick (7.12.14): lady pastor brought ‘fire’ from Toronto to Pensacola and the Spirit fell – prophecy about the American Gulf coast: “I believe there’s going to come a powerful shift that will begin in Alabama, and the shift that takes place here, among other places, is going to begin to shift this nation back to where it should be! Now don’t make this mistake…that whatever God does next He’s done before, because it’s not! There’s a new sound that’s coming! There’s  a new level of worship that’s coming! There’s a new level of revelation preaching that’s coming!(Revivals in the USA cont’d.)
  • RB (31.12.14): Revivals in the USA – nature of revival – native Indian revival of 1745 – July 1994 prophecies of 1995 and 2010 revivals – Nov 2014 prophecy, “Brownsville was good, Bay of the Holy Spirit would happen here – but I believe what’s about to take place over there (ie. across the bay from Mobile) is going to rock this nation!…I challenge the men to get ready.. to be in our place and be prepared for what’s about to take place, to be prepared for what’s about to happen!” (J Kilpatrick)
  • John Kilpatrick (1.3.15): On a new revival of prayer in USA and elsewhere.

Chuck Pierce et al: key prophetic revelation – a turning point

“We truly are at a “turning point” in the Church and God is doing a NEW thing in us and through us. We are at a shift and transition unlike any other time we’ve experienced before…and He is preparing His Church.

“Chuck Pierce is one I highly regard and look up to, to understand the times and seasons and where God is leading us. Below are the latest prophetic words and revelations from Chuck Pierce and his team…and all I can say is, “Wow!” (Steve Schultz, The Elijah List.)

The following prophetic words were brought on Sunday 1st November through Chuck Pierce, Keith Pierce, Acijam Otxoa, Brian Kooiman, Lisa Lyons, Melinda Richardson.

Click for video and on following sub-header for original Elijah List post plus prophetic dreams and interpretations. Observations appended below refer to paragraphs with [number suffix].

THIS IS THE DAY OF THE TURNING POINT!

chuckpierce[1]I would say to you, “Embrace your turning point. Over this past season you’ve been sifted and you’ve been strained, and you have even fought for your very breath. But this is a day of change! This is a day of rearranging! This is a time that I AM sending a three-fold cord of empowerment into your soul that cannot be broken. For many of your nerves were strained and broken over the last seven years. Many covenants that you thought would last are now lying by the wayside.

“I am now sending a three-fold cord to reform, and to restore, and to rebuild. I am causing My restoration of your future to begin to rise. Step into the well and the water that is now stirring and moving. Watch Me begin to wash away what strained you. Watch Me cause you to shine. Watch Me give you new territory for this season. (Photo via Wikimedia Commons)

“You have heard Me release Safe Passage. You have heard Me release Turning Point. But now you will see and hear Me as I come forth as Redeemer, Restorer, and Rebuilder. I am sending angels connected with these three dimensions of transformation. What was broken will be fixed, brought forth, and renewed.

“When you look at yourself don’t look for the pot or vessel that you were. I’ve had to disconnect elements from how you were built, crush, and then add new liquid that would cause you to be made into a structure for the future. What I am rebuilding, restoring and redeeming will look different from anything you expected from the past. Others that look you at would say, ‘Who is this person?’

Your heel will crush the head of the snakes you’ve seen in the past. The attacks you’ve seen between brothers and brothers, and sisters and sisters – look ahead and see the covenant that I have been developing. I will send My people realigned into the enemy’s camp. This realigned army will defeat the enemy and the booty will be brought to My Kingdom. You will fight alongside those you thought were sifted away. I am restoring an army in a new way, and I am realigning a new day.

For I am bringing down the Ancient Book with mysteries. These books carry the strategies for legislators of the Kingdom. These strategies contain revelation for a new dimension of Kingdom power. These strategies will overtake the enemy in every region that I assign you to. So receive the books – the Ancient Books – that carry the strategies of the legislation of God.” [1]

“I Need You! Therefore, I Am Drawing You!”

“This will be a time that I will release a new seeking draw upon your life. You will begin to seek Me and long for Me. You will begin to say, ‘I must have intervention! I must have a breaking-in of God’s presence and His life!’ I am going to draw you, and you will seek Me in a way you haven’t sought Me! You will know Me in a way you haven’t known Me! Feel the drawing, and submit to the drawing. Watch your new level of seeking begin. I will draw you into that which you have been longing to experience.

“For this is a time that I am beginning to brood and reform in a new way. For there are things that I have longed to see come into the earth realm. As My people gather and loose the sound of Heaven, I will hover and rearrange chaos. I am calling My people into a new place of alignment. My army is beginning to assemble. A new sound of joy, a new sound of laughter, and a new demonstration of power is beginning to arise. Allow My Spirit to brood over you. As I meet with you, you will see the two ends that could not meet in the last season begin to form a new line of demarcation. [2]

Your praise and worship are rising as an occupying force in the spirit realm. There is a rout (sic) taking place in the spirit world! This will only increase. There is a displacement coming in the second heaven from the worship and praise of My people as they seek My Spirit and respond to all I am offering them.” [3]

“I Am Rearranging Your Past Confusion!”

“I have been rearranging your confusion, for you have not been able to see the joy in the midst of the chaos around you. This will be a time that I draw out the joy that is in you. I have placed you in that chaos that is around you to produce joy. If you will release the joy that I have developed within you, the chaos will subside and you will see the order around you.

“It’s not how eloquently or long you pray! The key is the ONE WORD of faith. As you speak that one word, your situation will change. Do not let the downdraft pull you down into the circumstances that are surrounding you. Remain buoyant with that one word. The one word is your breakthrough in this season.

“Declare breakthrough after breakthrough after breakthrough into everything that seems chaotic. Your buoyant faith is what causes you to arise in the midst of everything that is trying to pull you down. Don’t stop at one breakthrough, but go from breakthrough to breakthrough until you are beyond breakthrough.

“My Names that you have built within you in the past season will now come into fullness. This will cause angelic armies to align with you and push you through the atmosphere that is attempting to hold you. Every force must bow! It is not the mere words that you speak, but it is the one effective word that causes a ‘bulls-eye’ shot.” [4]

(Prophetic dreams with interpretation follow…as here.)

Observations:

As well as confirming several recent words (eg. James Bailey: My people have reached a tipping point), I was struck by these words in particular.:

  1. ‘Ancient Books’: last month I discussed with Nelson Walters the book referred to in Daniel 12 and his concluding it’s very likely the Lamb’s Book of Life. I pointed out Daniel 10 refers to it as ‘writings of Truth’ and Daniel 7 refers to other books being opened, as well as insights gained independently by Paul Keith Davis and Bobby Conner in December 2000. (See Is the Book of Daniel Unsealed in Dan 12? and comments thread.)
  2. ‘Allow My Spirit to brood over you’: this, together with ‘I will hover’, ‘new place of alignment’, ‘My army is beginning to assemble’.. ‘a new demonstration of power beginning to arise’, all remind me of Charles Shamp’s: Prophetic Prayer Points for 2015-2020 published on New Year’s Day and his teaching in A scriptural context of the 4th lunar eclipse of the ‘Blood Moon Tetrad’.
  3. ‘Praise and worship..an occupying force…’: More biblical boasting on who Jesus is quotes Pat Schatzline that the days ahead will require a new level of praise.
  4. ‘My Names..come into fullness’: echoes Pat’s “bragging” on Jesus’ identity in Old and New Covenants as well as in Hebrew – Let’s continue boasting…

About Chuck:

Charles D. “Chuck” Pierce serves as President of Global Spheres, Inc. (GSI) in Corinth, Texas; an apostolic, prophetic ministry used to gather and mobilize the worshipping Triumphant Reserve throughout the world. He’s also President of Glory of Zion International Ministries, a ministry that aligns Jew and Gentile.

Chuck is well known for an accurate prophetic gifting which helps direct nations, cities, churches, and individuals in understanding the times and seasons in which we live. It was through Rev Dr Sharon Stone in 2004-5 that I learned about his ministry and later I read about Chuck’s vision of ‘crossed swords’ over London and word connected with Big Ben when en-route to Nigeria. The need for action was so urgent they called 40-days intercessory prayers. The teams were to meet at the end of that period but, upon leaving Euston station on foot, Sharon and her companion Martha Lucia were met by the devastated double decker London bus blown up during the bomb attacks on London Transport. (See ‘2005’ sub-pages to Library of Prophecies for UK.)

Also, three years later he had a vision of the United States being divided and separated like the Grand Canyon, as well as in 2013 of a 3-year unlocking and shaking with the War of the Kingdoms.  In early 2012 he brought encouragement of the Lord doing a new thing in England. For these and more on this blog click tag ‘Pierce’.

Profound prophetic word: “My people have reached a tipping point”

This prophetic word brought by James Bailey and published on Z3 News resonates with and amplifies many words received about the Lord’s worldwide action. On a personal note, James’ opening remarks reflect what’s happened this week through God-incidents with this blog and email. James writes:

MY PEOPLE HAVE REACHED A TIPPING POINT

church_doors-235x350I started noticing changes. It has been over a week ago, increased intensity with increased excitement. It hasn’t gone away. It has increased more. Here is what I heard today:

“Just as the world has reached a tipping point and their fate is sealed and major changes are coming, so have My people reached a tipping point and their fate is sealed and major changes are coming. Just as the world has cast out all restraint and entered into lawlessness, so have My people cast out fear and entered into fellowship, closer fellowship with Me. Because where there is fear there is torment and I do not want My people in torment, but My perfect love casts out all fear until the only thing left is fellowship, loving fellowship.”

“Things are beginning. Things that I have promised from long ago are now coming to pass. This is the day and the hour that you have awaited, that you have wanted to come for so long. Now it is here. Now it has come. I claim you to be My own. Deeper intimacy, this is what you have wanted. It has come. Stronger fellowship, this is what has come, greater peace, greater love, and far greater joy! For you belong to Me now.”

“I want you to walk with Me in fellowship like never before. I want you to know Me. Bind your heart to Me like never before. Make My paths straight before you. Let your feet never veer off course, neither to the right nor to the left, but stay on My path, for I put before you things that I, and only I, have desired from long ago, for you to know. But if you want to discover them, you will only find them on My path, which I put before you.”

“The day and the hour have finally come. My people get ready, for before you I leave an open door, and I say I am that door. So walk in, enter into the fellowship that I set before you. Come into the place. The table is set. The banquet is ready. I have prepared a table before you in the presence of your enemies and they will know that I am before you and you are before Me. They will see it in the midst of you. They will know it and they will declare, I am the Lord God Almighty.”

“Make known my innermost counsel. Make known My plans before men. Make known My heart and My will and My purpose and My plan. Make known all things I declare to you. Make known My will above the plans of men, above the will of men. Make My plans clear. Make them known and let them be established in the earth.”

Lion Bites: the refining fire

Today’s Lion Bites word from Glasgow continues the earlier Invite My Fire! and I pray it deeply blesses you too:

THE REFINING FIRE

fire-of-Holy-Spirit-300x194Are you really ready for the heat to be turned up? With more heat comes more refining, more purity and a heart that ignites, burning with a fire for Him. The Lord is a consuming fire. Will you allow Him to burn up all the dross, so that what is left is pure gold?

Others may not like (they may be challenged by) what you carry. Because of the level of purity they may not be able to stand around you. Nevertheless, sons and daughters of the King, God will use you if you choose to allow Him to turn up the heat and ignite you afresh.

He will use His radiant, ‘on-fire’ ones like lasers. Just as a laser is super-concentrated energy that can cut out diseased flesh (in the hands of a skilled surgeon) to allow for new growth, so He will use those who allow Him to refine in the fire. Choose to be one who goes through the refining: be on fire, be pure, be concentrated, be accurate, be like refined gold. Speak out the Father’s words of life and truth wherever you go.

1 Peter 1:7
…so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise and glory and honour at the revelation of Jesus Christ.

“OPEN up the gates!” decree and prophetic word for the UK

The following came to my attention soon after it was published by SOAR Prophetic International on 25th September. As would be expected, this prophetic word brought by Rebecca King is in harmony with other recent exhortations from Father’s heart for the British Isles. Rebecca is founding director of this Canadian and British international prophetic resource group and writes:

WORD FOR GREAT BRITAIN

Union Jack 672666_origI saw a release of angels coming towards us carrying supernatural energy to combat what I can only describe as complacency…. a slumber has come upon people in many cases and opened a door to complacency – which in turn has let in a difficult fatigue and with it a tendency towards laziness. At this point, I felt everything in me speak the command ‘open up the gates’ and at the sound of my voice and the strength of the command, heavy doors flew open. Even in the natural the weight of the doors would prevent this.  God is up to something.

I felt the Lord saying to leaders,

“Beware of locking yourself into your own plans and putting community and other leaders on the back burner” (emphasis added). 

Priorities will only bear good fruit when they are God’s priorities, and alignment with Sovereign priorities will bring into your storehouse what your heart is longing for – not necessarily sticking to your agenda.  His agenda must remain in front and centre for His Kingdom to be established.

This is not a season to ‘maintain.  It is a time to put one foot in front of the other and go ahead.  Steadily.  Do not miss a step – keep in time with the heartbeat of heaven.  God is opening ears and bringing a fresh sensitivity to this heartbeat and it will determine they rhythm for you to follow and walk with.

I ‘see’ the Lord handing out white envelopes containing a single piece of paper with the words ‘All Clear’ written on it.  These words ‘All Clear’, are words some of you have been waiting to hear but they don’t only relate to physical health.  Holy Spirit is saying that the way forward – up to this point blocked by rubble and baggage – has been opened up.

Do not be afraid of what you ‘think you see’ and do not rationalise your situation – it just may stop you from doing exactly what Holy Spirit is asking of you at this time.  The word being handed to you in the envelope is ALL CLEAR – and that is the declaration that will move you forward.

I also ‘see’ men and women standing together, dressed in a similar fashion – which shows me a willingness to work and to be together.  But unusually, all of the trousers (that each person is wearing) are far too short.  Everyone’s – across the board.  Not one of them is right.  I sense that Holy Spirit is saying that there is an invitation to step into new clothes, of a different size and style for the times ahead.  What fit last year is going to make you look silly this year and so the invitation is given to you now.  I see a man standing beside all of these men and women, with a tape measure in his hand and a pair of scissors as well and straight pins.  Holy Spirit is ‘at the ready’ to get the job done and get you clothed properly.   All that is required of you is that you make yourselves vulnerable – in the presence of your peers.  Holy Spirit will meet you there and make the necessary adjustments.

So to recap……a choice and a war against complacency, a stepping aside from everything that locks us into our own world and own plans.  A great declaration of All Clear’ and a redressing in order to be fully prepared for the new say.

Rebecca King

(Click above title for original post and comments. As with all prophetic words, this is for discernment and weighing against scripture and with the Lord. Rebecca’s reference to ‘complacency’ reminds me of Dr Stone‘s explicit warning of the same in her ‘clarion call’ of October 2013 not to miss our day of visitation – Prophetic words for 2014-16 for UK & Ireland: part 2 refers.)

Confirmation of prophetic word: holy winds of change

After Howling Fresh Wind by Patsy Southway was auto-published on this blog today, I  tinkered around with news relating to climate change. Unbeknown to me Angela Jelf was beavering away with a comment on that post and which warrants publication as some may have missed it. Angela writes as follows, and I’ve taken the liberty to show the Lord’s word as a quotation:

Hi Richard,
After reading this, I just felt prompted to share a word that God gave to me on June 15th last year (strangely enough, when I went to find my old journal which I’d written this word down in, lo and behold, it was folded open on exactly the right page!)

“For some time the church in the UK has been battling against a head wind. We’ve had the wind against us. Despite our best efforts, particularly in the area of evangelism, progress has been slow. It’s as though we’ve had the wind and rain in our face, and been buffeted by the elements. There’s been a sense of three steps forward and two steps back. But there is a fresh wind blowing! A wind of change is on the way! It’s the wind of the Holy Spirit and its coming to our aid! It’s a tail wind which will propel us forward! Acceleration is suddenly coming. The Lord has heard our cry, He has seen our growing hunger for breakthrough. Suddenly those things that were difficult will suddenly be done with ease, because it’s not about your effort. Hope is carried on this wind. When you feel this wind you must hoist up your sails! Hoist up your sails and get ready for acceleration! Some of you have longed for things, for salvation for family members, for breakthrough in healings and miracles – let fresh hope arise today for it will surely come about.

“This wind comes upon my church to propel you out! You will go out into the community, to the highways and byways. You will no longer stay hidden behind four walls. This wind will send you OUT and propel you to new horizons.

“This wind also blows through the harvest – it is blowing on the lost and broken, the sinner with the hardest heart – this wind is stirring the harvest. It’s blowing now! I see dandelion clocks, the little seeds caught on the wind. The seed of the gospel will be caught on this wind and will travel far and wide! It will propel the lost and the prodigal into my house. They will not be able to resist this wind as it carries such power. For it’s the wind of my Spirit!”

Praise God – I truly believe the time is now!”

In response to my reply Angela added, “Thanks Richard – I haven’t blogged about it. Just shared it at our church…The wonderful thing is, we are beginning to see a shift. Prodigals are beginning to return, and last week five people responded to the gospel on a course at our church!”

Praise the Lord – more, much more Lord!

Footnote:

The Lord seems to be turning our attention back to this prophetic promise – even halting us in our tracks, turning us around so we don’t miss what He wants us to realise!!  That is, He gave a similar word not only to Patsy last May but also to others during the first half of this year about waves and winds, as well as a few years ago in  what I’d term a ‘tame tornado’.

See Library and Weighing waves, tsunami & tornado and a turning the tide, to which Tony Puccio reminded me of dreams about a Cleansing wind and Winds of change in 2012 and 2013 respectively. Also, I’m nudged to add and to check the date – it is worth re-reading the important Prophetic word on Hurricane Sandy brought by Revd Dr Sharon Stone THREE YEARS AGO TODAY!

Therefore, I need to urge you and me to ‘NB’ – nota bene; pay especial attention!

PS: note Maray’s thoughts below…

Patsy Southway: howling fresh wind!

PwordAs well as harmonising with several recent prophetic words this follow-on from Patsy has a particularly pertinent reference to ‘Acceleration’, which has often been referred to on this blog. Patsy writes:

Patsy SouthwayThis morning (Thurs 29th October) I awoke at 5am to a howling wind blowing all around the house.  With my window open, I could hear the trees swaying and the many leaves being blown about.

I was reminded that earlier this year, during the month of May, God spoke to me about a FRESH WIND (earlier blog) and this morning as I was listening to a natural wind, He said that

“I am sending another FRESH WIND!”

In this NEW fresh wind, we, his children, are being given a choice.  We can choose to embrace what He is doing and flow with that, which means we will be totally out of our depth! OR we can choose to continue in the same way.  Doing ‘stuff’ as we have been, or embracing the NEW, it’s all good; but the NEW is better than the OLD!!

Sadly, I saw many people getting offended as this FRESH wind was blowing away strong cobwebs (some established networks, I believe) to make way for the NEW.  I was sensing His heart, the desire for us, his sons and daughters, to have a desire to embrace the NEW!

ACCELERATION

I saw an acceleration of AWAKENING!  This also, He had already spoken to me about earlier this year.  There is an acceleration to RIGHTEOUSNESS – the righteousness of God upon the NATIONS.

Changes in our Governments, Churches, Schools and families were happening as Holy Spirit brings about Heavens plans and strategies.  I felt that too many of us, His family, have embraced a mantle of hopelessness where more attention has been paid to news reports rather than what Father is saying and doing.  John 5:19

This morning, let’s break off ANY ungodly attachments in Jesus name and embrace this NEW WIND that He is releasing.

PRAYER

As some of you will know, this month we officially started our HOP (A303 House of Prayer) this was in obedience to what God had shown me a few years ago.  As I was journaling earlier this week He reminded me of the Prayer Hubs that we will be connecting with across the nations.

As there is a ‘return to prayer’ happening right now, we will see these NEW hubs surfacing.  They will be connected by those with a burning passion to see the Kingdom Of God powerfully over their villages, towns and cities with the effects rippling out to ALL the nations. Lastly, as I was reading Johns gospel this morning 6:27/29 the disciples were asking Jesus, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” Jesus answered:

“This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent.”

Amen.

Angelic reveille over the British Isles cont’d – fresh wind globally

This continues Patsy Southway’s prophetic dream she published on PICK Ministries as Great Britain – Angels of Wake Up! and which is reposted on this blog here. A week later Patsy writes:

Patsy SouthwayFollowing on from my first blog regarding the Angels of Wake Up published on the 22nd August, as I was sensing that there would be a ‘part two’ this is what was released to me during the week while I joined others hungry for more of God.

God reminded me of the Angels of Wake Up and then in an open vision showed me a HUGE clock.

There were so many parts to this clock, from tiny cogs to very, very large wheels.  Near the base of this clock was a large circular piece, a movement, that was swaying clockwise – anti-clockwise, clockwise then anti-clockwise in that rhythm.  I found myself physically moving with the rhythm of this HUGE clock.  Tick tock – tick tock – tick tock. Then I began singing a little prophetic jingle – Tick tock, tick tock, it’s time to STOP, it’s time to stop, anything that’s not in God’s Rhythm!

Anything that’s out of His timing, out of His rhythm, will cause this huge clock to malfunction.  I could then see the disorder that comes when we’re not flowing with Him.

FRESH WIND

As I continued to admire this beautiful HUGE clock, I felt a fresh wind coming and bringing with it a SETTING IN ORDER of that which is out-of-sync.  I also saw a REPOSITIONING of many people in preparation for something much bigger that’s coming!

Then God showed me a map of His World.  In several places, in different nations, I could see people on trains and buses being brought to a halt!   Masses of people getting off transport and wondering what to do?  Where to go?  At the onset of these happenings there is total chaos.  This reminded me of the current refugee crisis in Europe, but I sensed that these were people ‘in general’ just going about their business on their way to work, etc.

It was as though someone had switched off the power for commuting!!  Trains and buses coming to a halt!!

FEAR NOT

As I’m seeing this, wondering what’s going to happen…….SUDDENLY Heaven comes down.  There is calm, there is peace, there is order, there is organisation, there is MULTIPLICATION (previous blog) of food, of water, of life!!  Because the LIFE-GIVER has come!

Whatever chaos, whatever strategies and plans the enemy has dreamed up, our God, our Father, is SINGING over us.  He releases LIFE – PURPOSE – DESTINY!

As Father has released these Angels of Wake Up to the United Kingdom, and I believe in other NATIONS also, (in particular, America) placing them in strategic places; awakening the WATCHMEN, awakening the INTERCESSORS and generally AWAKENING His CHURCH, our response must be to join Him.  To intercede for the Governments, the Cities and the Nations, in preparation, for this imminent outpouring that, as yet, this world has never known and we will move into an entirely NEW LEVEL of what it means to be a CHRISTIAN – a CHRIST-follower in these days.

Such GLORIOUS days ahead…

Simon Braker: a dream of judgement/revival in USA

Hand Holding Puzzle Piece by PonsulakIn drafting an email about developments in UK, I wanted to insert a link to my latest posts. BUT something made me check that its opening link does work and WOW! I don’t usually bother with Facebook but this opened up Simon’s main page and I saw the first lines of what he’d just posted this morning. Intrigued, I clicked ‘More’ and read:

I’ve held this word for quite some time it came as a dream  –

A dream for the United States of America

I found myself sat in what can only be described as a frantic courtroom
I sat and watched as one witness after another presented their evidence
One came forward and shouted with tears look at this wickedness!
I looked and saw horrific pictures of dead babies and children,
Then another came and shouted look at this greed
Then another look at this pride
Then another look at this corruption
This went on as more and more irrefutable evidence of guilt was given.

It got to the point that the courtroom was in a frenzy of outrage

Yet the high judge just sat and listened until every accusation had been given and all the evidence had been submitted,

Once all this was done he still sat silent,
All the people stood and chanted guilty, guilty, judge them, judge them!

Finally with a loud voice the judge said, “Silence!!”.
Immediately every person became silent and sat down

The judge spoke and said – “I have heard all and seen all, the guilt of these lands of the United States of America is indeed great!

“I have decided judgment is indeed due and right!”
The people cheered, he commanded them to be silent!

“Before I pass my judgment I have one last witness, can the Holy Spirit take the stand please,”

An old woman came forward she was old but not frail in any way her eyes shone as she stood in the dock –

The judge spoke – “Do you have your evidence?”
“I do indeed” and she pointed to the video screen.
There appeared an image of a small child on her knees praying then a teenager then an adult, image after image appeared of more and more Believers of every age, class and race falling to their knees in prayer, then screen went black,

The judge spoke – “Is this the last of your evidence?”
The old woman responded “Yes!”

“Please step down” the judge replied.

All eyes in the room were fixed on him.

“Your evidence is indeed compelling, yet the guilt of this land is indeed great, in fact it grows daily I have therefore chosen judgment”,

He place a black cloth over his head took the hammer in his hand and struck the gavel and said “I find this land worth of………

“A Great revival the likes of which has never been seen before or will be seen again!”

As he said this blood poured forth from his throne and swept every accuser out of the room,

I then saw a map of the United States going up in flames as God began the answer the prayers of his burning ones,

the Lord spoke and said, “The guilt of this land is indeed great but my praying church and my shed blood is greater! So I grant a great revival that will take every street town and city for I will not have the cries of my people unheard, this land will arise and she will indeed shine!

“In what seems to be her darkest hour she shall shine at her brightest!”

RB Notes:

This is especially interesting in view of yesterday’s correspondence with Pat Schatzline. One of my regular contributors emailed after I’d précised his recent teaching at CHP (as here), and so I replied and copied to his ministry, little expecting to get a reply from him. He’s deeply moved by the dream and I responded as follows on revival in USA:

“What I particularly noted was the word about revival the Lord gave you for Pastor John (Kilpatrick), which I’d previously noted and blogged after the New Year (see later half of  https://richards-watch.org/2015/01/06/prophecies-fulfilled-3-contd-revival-to-re-visit-usa/)”

I kept Simon in the loop on his Facebook, to which he responded and I’ve emphasised:

“Bless you for helping to get the word out my friend, much appreciated! And I’m glad it’s blessing. I have to say it was one of the most profound words I’ve ever been given“.

Simon Braker: a season of new mantles

Simon_Braker-147x150School of the Prophetic Leicester’s Facebook page dated 23 October has the following by Simon Braker.  My thanks go to Suzanne Payne for notifying me on Friday but which I didn’t read until today. This is such an appropriately encouraging follow-up to the last  post, Shut That Door! (to which a couple of readers have already responded). Please see my footnotes too:

Simon writes:

I felt the Lord say:

My body has entered into a season of new mantles. Many have served faithfully like Joseph in this last decade they have served and refused to be offended, they have took rejection misrepresentation and even personal attack yet they have stayed true, some have suffered great personal loss yet in all the testing they have stayed true to me and have refused to become bitter.

In this next season I’m releasing new mantles of authority and Anointing,

Many who have lived many years with a distant dream and longing shall now step into the manifestation of the promise, I am releasing new mantles of Anointing for this next move of my Spirit, I have a new breed of prophets and apostles who will help build for the new wine of my presence,

This will not be a time of great ministers but of great teams and great churches, the days of the corporate blessing are upon you,

I’m raising up diplomats who will know how to function across streams, nations and networks and I’m birthing in this time a global unity across my body the likes of which has never been seen before, this unity will become the foundation from which the promise of discipling nations shall begin to come to pass.

Lion Bites: Shut that door!

Lion-Bites-logo-2012After making a minor amendment to the Library of Prophecies’ cross-reference to its sub-page on ‘A New Era for the Church’, I noted today’s word had arrived from Glasgow Prophetic Centre. It is published with their kind permission:

SHUT THAT DOOR!

The Lord says,

“It is time to close the door to the previous season once and for all. It is time to shut it, lock it and throw away the key!”

You have been in a prolonged season of confusion and, although you have heard many prophetic statements of ‘the season coming to an end’, this has yet to be your reality. Continuing in this season makes you afraid but know that God is not a God who would leave you there.

And the Spirit says to you,

“Power lies in your choice. If you choose to move out of where you are and move into my grace, it will become your reality. The choice is yours to close the door to the previous season and open the door to the next. For I have given you the keys to the season in your hands. I have given you the ability to shut the old door behind you and lock it fast… and begin to unlock the door to the next season.”

If you feel your spirit leap at this invitation from the Holy Spirit and want to choose to walk fully into the new season you can pray prayer like this:

Father God, I now choose to close the door to this previous season of confusion. I am sorry for where I have procrastinated in the old but I now declare that I am out of that season. I now choose to move with your grace, I choose to move into the season ahead that you’ve got for me.

1 Corinthians 14:33 – For God is not a God of confusion but of peace.

Is the ‘Star of Bethlehem’ re-appearing?

Nelson Walter’s Star of Bethlehem Sign Repeats Again This Week (click to read original) is re-blogged in connection with a recent post, as in my footnote below:

VenusandJupiter 2015In June 2015, a once in 2000 year conjunction of Venus and Jupiter recreated what many think “may” have been the Star of Bethlehem.  The occurrence of this sign just a couple of days after the Supreme Court’s decision in favor of Same Sex marriage led me to write this post {click here}. It has turned out to be the most popular of all the posts on this site with over 300,000 views. You may want to re-read it.

This Star of Bethlehem sign is repeating again this week. If you wake before sunrise this week in the USA, Venus and Jupiter will come within 1 degree of separation on October 25-26 high in the eastern sky. Amazingly Venus and Jupiter are again coming into conjunction in the constellation of Leo the Lion near the “King star” Regulus. This is the same exact location (near Regulus) in the constellations that was the site of the original “Star of Bethlehem” conjunction in 3 BC and the conjunction in June 2015. We discuss this in the previous article as well. I find that coincidence  amazing.

I have been watching Venus and Jupiter get ever closer together in the morning sky for weeks now. (I leave for work pretty early). This conjunction will not be as dramatic as the June one, but seeing the two brightest objects in the sky (other than the moon) that close is something to see. In North Carolina (my home state), the skies have been brilliantly clear to view it.

Is there a prophetic meaning to this sign repeating yet again? I don’t know. Certainly the second advent of our King grows closer and closer every day. Is God continuing to send us subtle warning signs for us to begin to “get ready?”

RB’ Note: I’ve corrected my reference to astronomical data for 23rd September 2017 in Supermoon Monday’s ‘Blood-moon’ and the ‘Age to Come’. Whilst writing it I was aware of this Summer’s conjunction of Venus and Jupiter, but as Charlie Shamp was not so specific in his very brief remarks I’d assumed it’s that kind of event he’s anticipating. It is not. In view of his reference to Revelation 12 he was referring to what informed observers are expecting for the constellation of Virgo – a reference to which I’d also provided. Please accept my apology for any confusion.

Let’s continue boasting about who Jesus is…

566xNxfiery-furnace_jpg_pagespeed_ic_aXtdrK6kJ2Continuing the previous post, we exalt with Pat Schatzline the identity of the fourth man in the fiery furnace, whom Nebchadnezzar described as a ‘Son of God’ and officially declared and affixed his royal seal thereto that,

“…No other god can save in this way!”

Excitedly, Pat continues recounting His identities in the New Covenant as follows:

“Hallowed be Thy Name”:

  • in Matthew, He is The Messiah.
  • in Mark, He is the Wonder-worker.
  • in Luke, He is the Son of Man.
  • in John, He is the Son of God.
  • in Acts, He is the Holy Spirit and Fire.
  • in Romans, He is our Justifier.
  • in Corinthians, He is the Gifts of the Holy Spirit.
  • in Galatians, He is the Redeemer from the curse of the law.
  • in Philippians, He is the God Who Supplies All Our Needs.
  • in Ephesians, He is the Christ of Unsearchable Riches.
  • in Colossians, He is the Godhead Bodily.
  • in 1st and 2nd Thessalonians, He is the Soon-Coming King.
  • in Timothy I and II, He is our Mediator between God and Man.
  • in Titus, He is our Faithful Pastor.
  • In Philemon, He is the Friend that Sticks Closer than a Brother.
  • in Hebrews, He is the Blood of the Everlasting Covenant.
  • in James, He is the Great Physician.
  • in I and II Peter, He is the Chief Shepherd who shall soon appear with a crown of unfading glory.
  • in I, II and  III John, He is the Everlasting Love.
  • in Jude, He is the Lord Coming with Ten Thousands of His Saints.
  • in Revelation, He is the Alpha and Omega, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

“Do you know my King? Do you know the fourth Man? Lift your hands and praise…praise Him!”

Reading from the overhead screen Pat had to interrupt these exciting declarations after saying “Soon and Coming King”. Rapidly speaking under the anointing he declared,

“He just told me to remind this house who He is. There is nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, not a thing! You can’t write it down because, He said to Moses “Tell them I AM sends you, Elohim, the I AM, sends you: LORD, Sovereign LORD. Tell them that’s who sends you”.

“It means I AM everything that you could ever imagine will supply My people’s needs!”

The last description applies to His Name as El Shaddai, which reminds me of how Paul Keith Davis tells of a Jewish listener saying that, “El Shaddai is the God of utter ruin and destruction, who’s able to supply all that man cannot”.

Watch this thrilling message on Church of His Presence video (start 1:39:10). Pat’s opening prophecy may be read on this blog at Revival in the USA – a prophetical perspective from ‘over The Pond’.

With grateful acknowledgement to Pat Schatzline and to CHP for the great blessing of all this information. Pat’s website is located at Remnant Ministries International.

More biblical boasting on who Jesus is…

PatSchatzline-chp‘Live wire, rapid fire’ Pat Schatzline says, “I have a sleep disorder called revelation!”.

His focus last Sunday prompted me to resurrect a ‘Do You Know Him?’ video from a menu page published in April 2012. Hence, this week’s earlier post, Let’s boast in who Jesus Christ is, because…

566xNxfiery-furnace_jpg_pagespeed_ic_aXtdrK6kJ2Pat’s message is based upon the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refusing to bow down to king Nebuchadnezzar’s golden idol, and the fourth man with them in the fiery furnace. The king describes him as “like a son of the gods” (Aramaic; ‘being-like to-son-of Elohim’, Daniel 4:27).

First, however, Pat stresses the importance of ‘bragging on the Lord’ because the Lord told him that’s the difference between meetings where there’s lots of healing miracles and none. Pat wants to go to churches with ‘ed’ on Sunday, where he can talk about what God did there and brag about it, all in accord with scripture!

His prophetical message (see ‘Revival on the Gulf Coast’ header here) about the new era notes that the days ahead will require a new level of praise, as in Psalm 150:1-6 and the congregation rises up with him:

“It’s what washes your mind. You gotta praise when you get up, praise when doing things in the day, praise when you go to sleep – it will keep you from doing dumb things.”

Pat’s been on a very intense journey since being there last Summer because the Lord’s been saying, “If you’ll allow me to take you to the places of revival, you’ll be part of the next one”.  So he’s been reading history books and writing one on the present lack of altar-calls to repentance, which thereby break demonic bondage rather than as in some services where demons are sanctified.

“He hasn’t abdicated! He is still on the throne and He’s calling us back to the altars…You’ve GOT to get your eyes on Him because the culture’s intense right now: right is wrong and wrong is right – faith is being challenged at every level!

“When you use scripture the world’s against you because of political correctness and so you’ve got to know who you are in Christ…

“I’m watching prophets running round who are friends of mine and they’re declaring gloom and doom. I get it – the four blood moons, the shemitah, signs and wonders on earth – I understand all that kind of stuff and believe it! But I’m watching all that and think:

“We’ve gotta talk some life here, we’ve gotta realise everybody ain’t saved yet…BUT what if we praise Him, we just praise Him!

Pat quotes 1 Peter 4:12 and 13 – ‘Dear friends do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering as though something strange were happening to you but rejoice that you participate in the suffering of Christ so that you may be overjoyed when His glory is revealed’, reinforced by The Message version of Matthew 6:26. He continues,

“God told me what to tell you is to brag on Him and  things in your life will change – turn that stupidity off your TV! Learn to brag on Him, brag on Him, brag on Him…Look what it says in His Word at Isaiah 60:1-5,

‘Arise and shine for your light has come and the glory of the Lord rises upon you. See darkness covers the earth and thick darkness is over the peoples, but the Lord rises upon YOU. Nations will come to your light and kings to the brightness of your dawn…’

Recounting, with video, the account of Daniel’s friends being saved in the furnace by the fourth man, he reminds us the king issued an Empire-wide decree that anyone saying anything against these three men’s god be executed and homes demolished. Why? Because “No other god can save in this way”!

So too, ‘the fourth man’ is with us in all our trials. As Pat struggled in the night preparing this message the Lord told him to boast about Him because of what’s about to be done and seen wherever He’s praised.

He concludes by revealing the identity of that fourth man whereby we may boast of the Father and Son; or in other words, to introduce our King:

  • in Genesis, He is the Seed of the Woman.
  • in Exodus, He is The Passover Lamb.
  • in Leviticus, He is the our High Priest.
  • in Numbers, He is the Pillar of Cloud by day and the Pillar of Fire by night.
  • in Deuteronomy, He is the Prophet like unto Moses.
  • in Joshua, He is the Captain of our Salvation (and of the heavenly host).
  • in Judges, He is our Judge and Lawgiver
  • in Ruth, He is our Kinsman Redeemer.
  • in 1st & 2nd Samuel, He is our Trusted Prophet.
  • in Kings and Chronicles, He is our Reigning King.
  • in Ezra, He is our Faithful Scribe.
  • in Nehemiah, He is the Rebuilder of the Broken-down Walls in our lives.
  • in Esther, He is our Mordecai.
  • in Job, He is our Dayspring from on high and our Ever-living Redeemer.
  • in Psalms, He is The Lord our Shepherd.
  • in Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, He is our Wisdom.
  • in the Song of Songs, He is our Lover and our Bridegroom.
  • in Isaiah, He is The Prince of Peace.
  • in Jeremiah, He is the Righteous Branch.
  • in Lamentations, He is the Weeping Prophet.
  • in Ezekiel, He is the Wonderful Four-faced Man.
  • in Daniel, He is the Fourth Man in our Fire (and Son of Man).
  • in Hosea, He is the Faithful Husband, forever married to the ‘backslider’.
  • in Joel, He is the Baptiser in the Holy Spirit and Fire.
  • in Amos, He is our Burden-Bearer.
  • in Obadiah, He is the Mighty To Save.
  • in Jonah, He is our Great Foreign Missionary.
  • in Micah, He is the Messenger of Beautiful Feet carrying the Gospel.
  • in Nahum, He is the Avenger of God’s Elect.
  • in Habakkuk, He is God’s Evangelist crying out, “Revive Thy work in the midst of the years!”.
  • in Zephaniah, He is the Saviour who sings songs over me.
  • in Haggai, He is the Restorer of God’s Lost Heritage.
  • In Zecharia, He is the Fountain Open in the House of David for sin and uncleanliness.
  • in Malachi, He is The Son of Righteousness Risen with Healing in His Wings.

“Do you know Him?

“I don’t care what you’re walking through;

“He said, if you put me as pre-eminent, I’ll change the atmosphere,

“If you’ll learn how to praise me, I’ll change the atmosphere,

“If you’ll learn how to trust me again, I’ll change the atmosphere…I have the power to transform your…to transform what’s been coming against you..”

An exceptionally inspirational message! Much of it reinforces the prophetic word from Jerusalem received on the first day of the past Feast of Tabernacles – read it again.

Also, those are Old Covenant identities of the Fourth Man – so there’s more to come in the New. First, however, let’s mull over and appreciate Who the Lord is.

Now, to continue boasting in who Jesus is >>>

Sacred space in a busy world? – take a Quiet Day

Acorn Q-day2If you have a day to spare you may like to consider the next Quiet-Day at Acorn, Sacred Space in a Busy World  (click for details). Located near the A3 in East Hampshire it’s easily accessible from Surrey, West Sussex and London. Maybe it’s time for you to have a day out with Him?

Busy bashing my blog on Thursdays I’m giving up next week’s for time out with the Lord. As you may have gathered from Not blogging but…, it was well-worth my attending a recent day Quiet Day.

Acorn Q-day1That day’s focus was on how to sit, walk and stand, as Paul teaches in his letter to the Ephesian church. Additionally, I gained confirmation from the Lord about the blog’s theme at that time, plus some other personal scriptures. This subsequently bore fruit in reading and later discussing the Book of Daniel as a result of Nelson Walter’s thought-provoking blog, which I hope to cover soon.

I went on that day trying to put aside concerns about how to reschedule what was in the pipeline until the next week. From the outset I was amazed, so there wasn’t any need for concern. It all proved to be in the Lord’s hands for, as in Romans 8:28, He works out all things to the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose.

Let’s boast in who Jesus Christ is, because…

Let him who boasts boast in the Lord (2 Cor 10:17 NIV)
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9 NKJV)

One of the latest comments on this YouTube version reads:

“I’m not looking for likes I just want to share this. I was lying in bed watching this with a badly scraped knee to where I could not move it. After 2 minutes passed a hot chill shot through my body and my pain stopped and I could fully move my leg. I felt the love and passion from God through me. Please if you believe this was the power of the loving beloved, please respond with amen. I lift your name on high.” (KPX)

Amen!

If you’re a visitor to this blog and don’t believe in Jesus Christ I invite you to consider my few notes, Do You Know Jesus?  On that page hear Shadrach Meshach Lockridge tell where God came from and how He created everything – it’s a clever, brief exposition and asks the same question, “Do you know Him?”
