Canada, Great Britain, Israel, USA and The Age To Come

Symbolic of Holy Spirit's active power across the Atlantic

[Reminder of closing paragraph of Maxine Phyllis’ points in previous post]  So the prophetic office in USA is not automatically a good model for UK prophets to follow, IMO. Rather, UK prophets are standing first and foremost for the stuff of the New Jerusalem coming down from God, to bring correction to the Old Testament prophets on the ground. This appears to be exactly what Veronika West is doing – standing FOR the truth of what God is doing with Trump, largely despite some of the prosperity preaching, cross-rejecting prophets in USA, who have gone astray themselves and greatly compromised Trump’s spiritual path. All for your discernment.

My response:

MOST interesting and exceptional, Maxine. You’re confirming not only what I’m soon to pop into this thread but also reminding me of insights I had re the New Jerusalem and The Bride, as well as of the ‘Book beyond the Bible’s Back-cover’!

Maxine:

From where I am in my ‘pivotal’ position, it looks like the full manifestation of the war and the wedding feast in Revelation 19. The warriors will do what they need to do but there’s also a need for some to serve at the wedding supper of the Lamb. One is the fullness of the Kingdom on the ground, involving the nations receiving the government of God; the other is about standing for an unconquered Church as the Bride and WIFE of the Lamb. Who can decide? LOL. When the Husband is on the battlefield?

Just heard in the Spirit “Taking Canada for the Kingdom of God.” As in a Husband claiming His wife. Then just heard the word “WOMB” (Isaiah 66). ‘Can a nation be born in a day?’… Continue reading

Canada, Great Britain, Israel, and USA – Maxine Phyllis

One of last year’s posts on the ‘Bridge o’r the Pond’ relating to 1999’s solar eclipse and the 400th anniversary of the voyage of the Mayflower included several ‘prophecy signals’ from different places on both sides of the Atlantic (Last Week’s GPS on New Church Also Included Canada & USA – GPS #51). The eighth piece came from Maxine Phyllis in Nova Scotia. 

In an exceptionally informative discussion on Facebook last week raised by Chris G Bennett’s and picked up by Chris Moyler about the unacceptability of prophecy within churches and differences between prophets here in the UK and in the USA, Maxine contributes very interesting points, especially relating to Esther and the Feast of Purim and kindly permits me to re-publish, as follows:

1st

I consider this [by Keith Powell; courtesy Ruach Ministries] as a critically important prophetic word from Britain given in 2010. The word ‘pivotal’ ties in with something the Lord has done with me as a Canadian, in which I had an open vision of His right arm coming down from heaven, from the direction of the UK, all the way down to North America. In 1996 I had this vision and heard Him speak the word “pivot”. He said He’d use ME as a pivot on which to rest His arm as I watched Him slowly pull it back until it was fully retracted. He was withdrawing the blessings of His right hand from North America.

Between 1996 and 2016 I learned what it means to be the Lord’s “pivot” by coming out of the wayward Church and walking with Jesus the way of the cross through one fiery trial after another. By 2016 I had another open vision of His right arm coming back down, this time fully extended, reaching all the way down to the southern USA. Then it moved all the way up to the Canadian arctic while the entire continent appeared as one big field of green grass. He was cutting the grass as He went and gave me the word “all men are like grass….”.

The point being, Keith Powell’s prophecy in this link is where I hang my hat spiritually speaking about what the Lord is doing in UK. It’s quite different than what’s happening in USA. In the USA the battle is on the ground and under the ground. In UK, it’s in the air (as in Canada as well). The Battle of Britain is a powerful analogy for that. The strategy is different as well. The battle in the air requires believers to raise up the biggest cry of praise and worship possible on both sides of the Big Pond, to pierce the powers of darkness and send them running in confusion, so that they turn on each other, as per 2 Chronicles 20. Canada’s role appears to be to stand in the gap for both simultaneously, as a pivot between the two.

The number of man plays a prominent role, and the role of female has to come to the fore as a source of powerful intercession. This is where it really sucks for those who’ve decided to dump the wives God gave them and choose multiple partners and so on. As I’ve experienced myself the role of a Spirit-led wife is to ‘surround and protect’ a man (Jeremiah 31:22; also the original Hebrew meaning of ‘helper’ in Genesis – ‘I will make a helper suitable for him.’). Choose instead to find a newer younger model and it might end up with powerful delusions instead, or at least a dead end street spiritually speaking. This all points me back to the role of the governing authorities in UK. For all their flaws, Romans 13 still applies – they were put in place by God. And the UK / Canada have as head of state a decidedly female monarch in the land of hope and glory, mother of the free. Gender matters at this time. The UK is known for producing powerful praise and worship. Part of my intercession as a Canadian involves blasting the Wesleyan hymns and much more from the UK, into Canadian airspace, as part of surrounding and standing in the gap for USA counterparts on the ground. Hope all that makes sense.

2nd

Other things I see the Lord is doing in UK – I have come to understand that the source of His right arm coming from UK is Wesley’s Chapel in Bristol. There is something about Bristol serving like an interim capital city for the UK from a Kingdom perspective, in the face of what’s currently happening in London. I receive one confirmation after another of this as I sit in my prayer closet in Nova Scotia.

Also, for any Biblical scholars out there who might be able to explain this to me, when I visited the wells of water gushing out of the ground behind the cathedral in Wells, I heard the Lord say they come from the same source as the water in Galilee. After meditating on that for now over 12 years I’m intrigued by scriptures related to Galilee. For example, Jesus said “After I have risen I will go ahead of you to Galilee” (Matthew 26:32).

While there it felt very much like a resurrection experience for myself. I got in the habit of going up into the Mendip Hills before dawn to watch the sun come up over the Somerset Levels. There were such heavy mists over the land it was like the creation itself was speaking to me about God’s sovereign plans for this part of the world. I had first heard Him say “Ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is and walk in it” as part of leading me to go there. Then I sat in those hills and listened to Him speak about resurrection life, here and now, as part of what comes next for the free Judeo-Christian world. This was over the Remembrance Day season – the first two weeks of November in 2008. We truly are entering into the days described in Daniel 12 -“Multitudes who sleeping the dust of the earth will arise: some to everlasting life, others to everlasting shame and contempt.”

Meanwhile there is an open portal to heaven over the UK in which I see the New Jerusalem above who is free and who is our mother, hovering over the earth. There’s a holy highway coming from there across the Big Pond, through Atlantic Canada and down to the New England States. The UK is poised to lead the free world to victory through its over-comers in much the same way that Esther came before the King uninvited. It’s a distinctly female role that the USA cannot attain as it’s caught up with the number of man. Canada’s included. Pray for me to get my writing down about all this, as I fast and pray about all this over Purim.

Sorry for the length of this but something else just came to me. Sorry also for repeating the same things but I’m reminded of Winston Churchill’s statement that if you have an important point to make ‘don’t just say it once. Hit it once, then again, then a third time. A tremendous WHACK.’ LOL. The date of Brexit ties in with the date of Purim. The 23rd day of June 2016 the Lord spoke to me to pray for the Hamans to be hung on their own gallows whoever they are. Only later did I find that scripture passage in Esther 8, which took place also on the 23 day (of the Jewish month of Sivan – equivalent to our May/June). See postings by one Martin Hill about the timing of things, especially now heading into Purim 2021 (Feb.25/26). It’s a time of rising up as a body of Christ, making new decrees as we think best, and enforcing them with prayer and fasting. Now’s the time. I’m decreeing that the Hamans are hung in Canada, England, Israel and USA

Lastly don’t believe what you see with your eyes in UK. It’s being done in the Spirit and the victory comes ‘in the air’ with much praising and worshiping the Most High God in the enemy’s face.

3rd

To add even more to what I already wrote (sorry for the length of my previous comments), I’ve been seeing in the Spirit there are two different things happening with the prophetic realms in USA vs UK. Based on the words of Christ that “Surely no prophet can die outside of Jerusalem”, I’ve come to understand the prophetic office as pointing directly to Jerusalem and all that will take place in the future related to Jerusalem. I’ve seen in the USA, the prophets appear to rely heavily on Old Testament scriptures as a basis for their prophetic utterances which point to Jerusalem on the ground. For example, speaking of Trump as ‘God’s Cyrus’. The prophetic in the USA appears to centered more around ancient Jerusalem in the modern state of Israel. Hence the decision to move the US embassy to Jerusalem.

As a Canadian who’s a seventh generation descendant of British loyalists, to me the focus of the prophetic in Canada and UK appears to be more about the things of heaven, and the New Jerusalem above who is free and who is our mother. The New Testament scriptures then become more prominent including the ones about being instantly translated into the Kingdom and bypassing death altogether. Luke 20:36 speaks of those who are children of the resurrection, who can no longer die. Jesus spoke a lot of the need for child-like faith to enter into the Kingdom, along with a willingness to take up the cross and walk as He did. It’s less about the things of politics and more about the things of heaven.

When we don’t hear any teaching or prophetic words about this, and ONLY hear the Old Testament parallels, there is a grave risk of missing the mark altogether. IMO, that’s why we now hear some in the ‘prophets’ in USA speaking of being equal with God rather than in full submission to Him by taking the way of the cross. They risk putting themselves in the same position as Moses when he struck the rock twice (and that rock was Christ), and was disqualified from entering into the Promised Land. They want a share of the plunder but not to share in the suffering of Christ so they may truly share in His glory. No point in naming names, but they have an unhealthy interest in wealth to the point of ‘crucifying the Son of God all over again’ by failing utterly to demonstrate how to find victory through the cross. As I once heard the Lord say ‘The purpose of the anointing is not to send us to the bank; it’s to send us to the cross.’

So the prophetic office in USA is not automatically a good model for UK prophets to follow, IMO. Rather, UK prophets are standing first and foremost for the stuff of the New Jerusalem coming down from God, to bring correction to the Old Testament prophets on the ground. This appears to be exactly what Veronika West is doing – standing FOR the truth of what God is doing with Trump, largely despite some of the prosperity preaching, cross-rejecting prophets in USA, who have gone astray themselves and greatly compromised Trump’s spiritual path. All for your discernment.

Maxine’s references to the New Jerusalem prompted my response, as in next post >>

1st Sunday of Advent reminds us Jesus Christ is soon to return!

First Sunday in Advent

Yesterday, Sunday 29th November, not only marks the beginning of Advent but also is personally nostalgic because of the life-changing dream 31 years ago that brought a totally unexpected and radical encounter with Jesus Christ.

FIRST & SECOND ADVENTS

Note Wikipedia’s entry on Advent because I’m especially surprised its emphasis is not upon Jesus’ birth, BUT UPON HIS RETURN, viz.: Continue reading

Prophetic Watch on America and President Trump cont’d: 4 – spheres of influence and the First Horseman of the Apocalypse

In most ESSENTIAL, instructive teaching Able Praise identities demonic activity of not only America’s but also global media (including anti-Pope Francis!). It is directly related to Apostle John’s vision of the first of four horsemen of The Apocalypse being released after Jesus’ opens the first four seals of the 7-sealed scroll handed to Him by our Heavenly Father (Revelation 5). Abel writes in His Kingdom Prophecy :

AMERICA: PRESIDENCIES and SPHERES of INFLUENCE: THE MEDIA GAVE JOE BIDEN ITS THRONE

There are tremendous shifts going on in the heavens; as the saints wage war through prayers to enact the righteous Will of The LORD.

While we have our earthly perspective of leadership and how things play out on earth; we must also learn to gain heaven’s perspective; to see how the heavens are shaping the activities on earth.

Much more than the election of numbers in the earthly politics, there is the election of Thrones in the Heavens; and every significant political office holder rules through a Spiritual Throne that defines the sphere of their influence in the earth — and the things they have limit and permission to do.

The Scriptures in The Book of Daniel, Chapter 4 describe Nebuchadnezzar as a significant tree; a tree that had great influence in the heavens and the earth, just as Nebuchadnezzar had seen in his dream, and Daniel correctly interpreted when he saw that a sentence had been brought by a holy Watcher from Heaven, decreeing that the tree be cut down.

Likewise; The Scriptures also revealed something significant about Pharaoh in Genesis 41. Pharaoh was given the SpiritualTthrone of a Bull that ruled the economic sphere of nations.

Pharaoh had a dream where he stood at the bank of a river. The dreams of the seven fat cows and seven lean cows represented the seasons of the reign of and through Pharaohs of Egypt.

For Nebuchadnezzar, the tree was a prophetic symbol of the Spiritual Throne he was seated on, with which he ruled the nations at that time, and it determined the sphere of influence his reign would have; whether of healing for the nations as righteous trees represent, or of corruption spreading across the nations as evil trees represent.

The Spiritual Throne a leader sits on, shows which sphere amongst others they will have great influence in, where they will try to enact policies; and what sphere of the world their reign will have its greatest impact.

So when a leader is being elected; and choices are also being made in The Courts of Heaven; as they weigh the choices of men; the requirements of sacrifice; and the alignment or misalignment to The Proposed Will Of The LORD; the end point is that a throne is appointed to that leader; and it defines the direction of his influence.

So a leader, may arise bearing an Economic Throne; like The Pharaohs of Egypt stood as bulls at that time and will tremendously altered the financial landscape of the world, or like Nebuchadnezzar stood as a Tree; and tremendously altered the religious landscape of the world.

We see how, after he had lived through his sentencing for pride; and after the trial of the three Hebrew men by fire, The Scriptures record that King Nebuchadnezzar in more than one occasion passed decrees saying that all must worship the One True GOD [Daniel 3:29; 4:34].

This however, happened after King Nebuchadnezzar tried to alter the religious landscape of the world by forcing everyone to bow down to an idol — save, for the faith of Shedrach, Meschach and Abednego; and the intervention of The LORD being the fourth man in the fire; the plot to enact and enforce global idolatry was defeated.

We see this pattern also in the Book of Revelation as The Seven Seals were being unsealed. The Scriptures reveal In Revelations 6, as the first seal was unsealed; there was the sound of thunder; and there was one seated on a White Horse with a Bow and a Crown, and he went out conquering.

The sound of thunder is The Throne of Media. The ‘media’ isn’t just for news. The sum of all its streams into the world of men is intended to subdue men through controlled reasoning like we have seen through social media wars, as was in the time of Jezebel, when the true prophets were made to go into hiding.

This clearly shows one being given a tremendous Throne of Media; and the ‘media’ being a governmental tool that defined influence in the earth — conquering, oppressing and suppressing.

The Scriptures also records in Revelation 6:2; concerning the season of the Second Seal. John The Beloved saw, a Red Horse; and power was given to him who sat on it to take peace from the earth.

He was given a Red Sword; and he rode with the commission to kill and to make people kill one another.

Again; this is one given a Throne that ruled through the spheres of men that causes wars, division, racial tensions; the opposite of which is peace, unity.

One with this authority will have his greatest influence in the earth in the wars or peace and this will define the season of their rule.

One more illustration of this in The Scriptures can be seen in Revelation 6:7; when the season of the Fourth Seal was unsealed.

John The Beloved saw a Pale Horse; and death and hell rode on this horse; and economic authority was given to them; to kill with the sword, with hunger, and with beasts of the earth.

Imagine that! The sphere of their authority was the economy!

Every presidential reign through an Economic Spiritual Throne, will have great effect in the economies of the world, just as the Pharaoh’s had.

These are levels of truth and understanding. The Body of Christ must begin to rise to for what is to come in the days ahead.

We must reach deeper into The Wisdom of The LORD, for the battles of Kingdoms, Thrones and Territories unfolding before us.

Through this, we can actually discern what battles are going on — in the heavens; and have not just a news media political perspective; but a heaven-to-earth perspective, on what is playing out so we can labor right.

This brings me to the unfoldings in the Nation of The United States of America concerning the 2020 Presidential elections.

In the writings I co-authored with Veronika West on His Kingdom Prophecy; I had emphasized over and over again, Donald J. Trump was raised up as a Tree.

This is seen in how he has tremendously altered the religious landscape of the world and in bringing healing to the nations — the Middle Eastern nations.

I shared how I was visited in my home in Nigeria by three Archangels from the USA, and how they were discussing about The American Tree.

Veronika West also shared several revelations from The LORD about Donald Trump and the relationship with The American Tree.

One very profound revelation is the dream about The LORD meeting Donald Trump at the Rose Garden and Donald Trump standing by two willow trees (see In the Rose Garden).

There’s no doubt Donald Trump has had a tremendous influence in the religious sphere of the world; daring to reestablish the Covenant of The LORDSHIP OF JESUS CHRIST concerning The Nation of USA; proclaiming publicly and on behalf of The Nation their submission to The LORD JESUS; restoring the covenant with Israel; and bringing healing to the nations; in terms of Israel’s relationship with other nations; amongst other things. (Emphasis RB)

In the HKP Word titled; “America and The Second Term Presidency of Donald Trump”, I shared dreams I had as far back as July 2019, showing how the election won by Donald Trump was given to another when the results were called; just as it has happened.

The significant part of that dream that stuns me till this day is what I said to Donald Trump in that dream telling him, “You did what you were supposed to do….” (Emphasis RB)

Going further, I have shared what The LORD had shown going forward; as to how the battleground is now shifting to The Courts.

However; The LORD began to draw my attention last night to this part of the Warfare I have shared above — beyond the Wars of Numbers, that will go on in The Courts — we must discern the Wars of the Spiritual Thrones and spheres the enemy is daring to possess and the areas he is daring to make inroads.

This is where the most significant victory must be gained.

In the published HKP Words; “America and The Second Term Presidency of Donald Trump” and “The Courts of Heaven”, I shared how I was shown The Harlot was contending for the Spiritual Throne and sphere of The Church.

There also was ‘a lying spirit’ that was contending for The Prophetic Throne and sphere of the prophets.

I shared how the enemy was fighting so hard to get the ‘Harlot—Lying Spirit’ duo to dare to sit over the spheres of The Church and The Prophets.

The most significant part of politics is not just the numbers or the figurative head, it is The Spiritual Throne and Legal Sphere of Influence given to that figurative presidential head, that determines the actual authority and spheres of life a presidential reign can influence. (Emphasis RB)

This is why in times like these, The LORD begins to raise up Daniels who can dare to stand as oversight over Thrones that perverse leadership sits on, The Josephs who will rise to be father to the Pharaohs; to be as oversight and a checkmate to the activities of kings who may dare to wield their authority in perversion; The Elijahs who will stand up against Jezebel and the weak king; to put their excesses in check and walk through the battlefield of the spheres they are ruling in.

Yesterday; The LORD began to say to me; that we must now begin to look in to see what Throne the enemy will try to give to his stooge, so we must know the Spheres he will try to rule through, so we know what wars lay ahead — beyond the politics of numbers — but to discern the Thrones and Spheres of influence, the battlefield is shifting into.

Just as I had explained Nebuchadnezzar standing as a tree to influence the global religious world; first in his attempt to enforce global idolatry; that was overturned by the faith of Shedrach, Meschach and Abednego, the second time, when his boastful pride led him to personal worship for what Babylon had become.

This brought about his punishment. These led him to make and enact decrees proclaiming The LORD GOD as the one True GOD to be worshiped.

I also briefly explained how the Pharaohs stood in as ‘bulls with great influence’, over the global economic sphere.

While the political process is playing out; I already wrote as published in His Kingdom Prophecy, how the enemy dared to raise up the combination of the ‘Harlot—Lying Spirit’ to dare to gain access to wield authority over the spheres of The Church and The Prophets, during this political season.

I am convinced that through the labors of the saints, there is a breakthrough in this and these spheres wouldn’t fall into the enemy’s hands.

However; The Burden Of The LORD came over me again last night; and The LORD was saying to me that the battleground is changing!

We must not deny the obvious fact that many also gave ‘rights of leadership’ through their votes, to choices that are ungodly and that is a voice of witness we must not deny.

So, while the process persists and advances to The Courts; we needed to press into what Throne and Sphere the enemy is seeking to give Joe Biden, and what area we must be ready to have a season of war in.

This concerns more than just the Nation of the USA. The global system of nations was coming to a time where the beast that ruled through the Nebuchadnezzars, The Pharaohs, The Jezebels and the Romans, were seeking to rise to oppress and suppress.

It will be a time for The Daniels, Josephs, Elijahs and The Pauls to arise and take their stand; to break through an oppressive and a suppressive spirit.

As I prayed through this, I woke up with this very short dream this morning. In the dream; I saw the four black scratch marks from the four claws of a voracious lion that had scratched, what I understood as ‘the wall of nations’.

I understood this lion to be The Media Lion Of The Nations. (End of Dream.)

As soon as I woke up, I heard, “The Media gave Joe Biden its Throne”.

As I woke up; The LORD took me back to this scripture concerning the unsealing of the Seals and the Thrones that were released and the Spheres they were sent to influence,
“And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the [noise of thunder], one of the four beasts saying, Come and see. And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer,” Revelations 6:1-2.

It’s important to note that, prophetically; The Lion’s Roar is like the thunder; and an ancient beast is daring to rise.

It’s character is that of ‘conquer and conquest’ and it uses all of the weapons in its arsenal to conquer, to oppress and suppress.

We have begun to see this through social media censorship.

Nations are beginning to consider laws to censor and control their populace through social media, A few nations already have that in place. However, this is a battlefield that will be revealed in a new way; laws, policies, ideologies, doctrines, economies like the cancel culture and more, may begin to be brought to the fore in a new way

This is a Sphere The Body Of Christ haven’t covered a lot of grounds. This is where we must set our hearts win; laboring in the spirit; in prayers, intercessions and actions — as we look forward to the political and judicial resolve of things.

This is a call we must also see from Heaven’s Perspective — a whole new battleground is forming before us!

We must not be caught unaware!

How to Look for Signs of Jesus Christ’s Return

Whilst singing the Noel Richards’ chorus “Come Lord Jesus” in a meeting, my wife was noticeably touched by the Holy Spirit and heard, “It’s sooner than you think!”. I submit, therefore, the importance of revisiting this blog’s strap-line ‘Looking for signs of Jesus’ return‘ and of being sure we really do know ‘how to look’ for Jesus’ Second Coming.

Another insight into global satanic strategy: are masks a trial-run? – part 1

This topic is rarely covered because I despise the enemy of our souls and its demonic influences. Hence, my not blogging on this for 5 years 5 months since the mini-series that began with musing upon a devilish plot to avoid the Lake of Fire. Now, another inkling dropped into mind last week and which I submitted to a few friends for weighing. I was surprised, therefore, to receive unexpected confirmation from other sources in UK, USA and New Zealand (reader Alex’s comment), as posted on Saturday.

Therefore, this isn’t for Britain alone, as I’d thought, but is globally relevant too. So let me expand upon the brief outline given in my personal appeal; Wake Up Church! 

NB: In all this please note I’m NOT saying or implying any of the Prime Minister’s or government’s decisions are directed by the demonic; only that they may be to satan’s advantage and thus benefit its ultimate agenda. 

PRAYER: Heavenly Father I ask you to protect each one of my brethren in Jesus Christ reading this by His holy sinless blood; also that access rights the demonic may have are thus rendered null and void. (I’d prepared this for publication a few days ago but awoke with excruciating hip pain on Tuesday that necessitates resting. A prophetical pastor who’s praying for me confirmed my suspicion of it being a demonic attack.)

MASK / MARK OF THE BEAST

Trying to return to sleep after waking early on Saturday 18th July I was suddenly struck by: “WE’RE ONLY 1 LETTER AWAY FROM THE MARK OF THE BEASTWAKE UP CHURCH!” (maSk…maRk)

That is, we need to realise that compulsory wearing of masks in public is a trial-run, or testing, the progress and outcome of which will inform and lead into the imposition of the infamous Mark of the Beast. It is a softening up and preparing the global population for such an eventuality, as foretold in the Book of Revelation. Therefore, it is increasingly important for Christian leaders to teach about being prepared for the End-Times.

Click to read ScriptureForAll Hebrew Interlinear Bible

[‘He – the Beast from the Sea – causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.’ NKJV Rev 13:16-17]

Upon recalling the gist of Revelation chapter 13, it dawned upon me we’re not only ‘one letter’ but also ‘one inch’ away from carrying the full marking, or ‘carved-effect’ (original Greek). The new legal requirement from last Friday imposes a mandatory restriction upon anyone wanting to go shopping and buy anything that focuses not only upon a person’s mask, thereby highlighting their forehead and eyes – its edge being on the bridge of their nose, is an inch below the forehead – but also upon waving a hand in order to buy without handing over cash or cheque, or tapping one’s own private code.

Note two salient points:
  • This Jewish year 5780 is that of Hebrew letter ‘pey’, symbolising the ‘mouth’ and its method of communicating: eg in praise and worship the Lord.
  • the spirit that works in the ‘sons of disobedience’ is also ‘prince of the power of the air’ (Ephesians 2:2).

Hence, the significance of events focusing upon the effects of everyone’s breathing!!!! AND the poison spewed out in mainstream media headlines and opinions that curses the nation!

Next, it occurred to me this is the 7th instance of this topic cropping up recently through unconnected events.

And they appeared as two lots of triplets!  The first 3 centered on a Friday, as told in End-Times Briefing 13; the second 3 arrived on a Monday (government’s muddle, data from White House author, top Hong Kong lab’s whistle-blower). Moreover, I came under a Jezebelic attack, which the Lord countered by more data. You may recall this blog gives copious examples of ‘invisible jigsaw pieces’ arriving like ‘GPS’ (global prophecy signals). The two confirmations mentioned above are the latest example.

Theological Perspectives

I ask that we lay aside any personal, doctrinal preferences when reading Revelation because there’s EIGHT theological interpretations of this profound book, as summarised in my study Bible. Let’s not, therefore, be too dogmatic in assessing my remarks. In my humble opinion, the Lord may permit the imprecision in order to ‘play His cards close to His chest’, keeping the adversary in the dark.  Therefore, if we adhere to a dogmatic ‘timetable’ then satan’s strategy could blindside us by imposing the Mark by nefarious means and catch us in its snare unawares.

Our adversary would want to prevent any possibility of a global Revival and harvesting of souls by getting peoples’ unwitting allegiance to its schemes and thus consequential damnation!  Heaven’s reaping would rob hell of its harvest of humans!!

With reference to my recent Briefings, Jane H asks: “Regarding the mark of the beast surely this will not proceed revival will it?  How can we spread the gospel to anyone having the mark?”

Clearly, Jane has Rev 14:9-11 in mind and which clearly implies those with this Mark are owned by satan, and thus share in its decreed doom. These dread scriptures foretell no possibility of changing allegiance away from satan in this event. However, it may be possible for those who didn’t take the Mark to be saved during an individual’s ‘revival’.

Some may argue the Mark of the Beast won’t apply to the Church because we will have been raptured into heaven (‘snatched up’ – 1 Thess 4:17) before its introduction: ie. the Mark is imposed during the 7-year Great Tribulation. I find, however, scripture does not unequivocally support that view – for example:

  • Rev 12:17 – And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
  • Rev 13:7 – It was granted to him to make war with the saints and to overcome them.
  • Rev 14:12 – Here is the patience of the saints; here are those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Jesus. 13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on’,”
  • Rev 15:2 – And I saw something like a sea of glass mingled with fire, and those who have the victory over the beast, over his image and over his mark and over the number of his name, standing on the sea of glass, having harps of God.

Dr David Pawson’s Opinion

In his overview of the epic story of God’s relationship with His people,  world-renowned Bible teacher David Pawson ‘unlocks’ The Apocalypse in 200 pages distilled from a ‘lifetime’s worth of insights’.:

Chapters 6-16…’are relevant to all believers, whatever their contemporary situation…The main motive for preparing to be faithful under pressure is to be able to face Him without shame. Perhaps that explains the reminder inserted between the 6th and 7th bowls of wrath (incidentally, confirming some Christians will still be on earth at the time): “Behold I come like a thief!…” (Rev 16:15…)

An Informed Reaction:

One reviewer’s response:

“The LORD has set you as a voice, to blow the trumpet and get The WORD out. Absolutely; we are seeing the governmental systems and structure of the beast trying to shape out in a more vicious form in the earth. Many political leaders of nations do not know what they stand against; some decisions that they implement are not theirs; if the grounds are lost in the spirit by The Church and the enemy gains a right to impose a sentence; the governments over nations can wield little or no power of resistance. We must realize that when we also pray and gain victories in the spirit; the leadership of nations will have the power to resist the already established victories in heaven. Things are shaping out; the direction of the dance moves that policies reflect shows us what grounds must be contended for to be regained in the spirit. The antichrist is more than a person taking up an office; it’s major stronghold will be the system it sets up; rather than who becomes the figurehead”

End-Times Briefing 14: Book of Revelation’s importance – 10 key points

In his third annexure to Simplicity, Neil Mackereth asks and points out:

WHY IS THE BOOK OF REVELATION SO IMPORTANT?
10 KEY POINTS

1. It is the Culmination of The Bible Story. The denouement.
Could you imagine the Bible ending with the one-chapter book of Jude?

2. It Shows Jesus in His glory – As King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
So awesome that even His close friend John fell on his face as if dead when he saw Jesus. We know Jesus as prophet, teacher, priest, healer and so on – but here we see Him in all His glory.

3. It Provides Knowledge: to Defeat Misinformation. A challenge to false prophets and false doctrine.

4. It Provides Knowledge: to Help us Understand World Events. Revelation shows that God foreknew, He is in control, and His plan will not be thwarted.
Current events: Israel, 1948 and following; moves towards a new world order – a world economic system and a world governmental system.

5. It Provides Knowledge: to help us be pathfinder guides and watchmen for Israel.

6. It is a Basis for Evangelism.
It is my contention that the incredible significance and glorious wonder of so much fulfilled prophecy in the Bible, is so “undersold” that it indicates the church has been duped into veiling parts of the Word of God Any other prophetic book that was so absolutely accurate over so many events over such a long period of time, would be hailed and revered in awe and wonder by the secular world.

7. An antidote to complacency.
We now know enough to not be caught unawares.

8. Future Focus: it prepares us for what lies ahead.
Revelation tells us more about our eternal home and condition, rather than our current temporary state – more about the significance and urgency of the choice we, and all people, need to make.

9. Worship.
A book full of worship, and how to worship – 11 major songs that have inspired a multitude of hymns and choral works, songs etc.

10. Because God tells us it is Special!
It is the only book in the Bible that blesses the reader and the hearer (Rev 1:3) John wrote it as he saw it and heard it, which may account for its unusual style – he was continually being reminded to write down what he saw and heard, and then told not to change it! – Reveleation 22:18-19.

End-Times Briefing 13: triple ‘God-incidence’ re. contactless payments & Mark of the Beast

Puzzle In Sky by Idea Go, courtesy Freedigitalphotos.com

As if by coincidence, a week ago today three people alerted me separately to ‘the Mark of the Beast,’ as in the 13th chapter of The Book of Revelation, as herein:

The Beast from the Earth

11 Then I saw another beast coming up out of the earth, and he had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. 12 And he exercises all the authority of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed. 13 He performs great signs, so that he even makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men. 14 And he deceives [f]those who dwell on the earth by those signs which he was granted to do in the sight of the beast, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image to the beast who was wounded by the sword and lived. 15 He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no-one may buy or sell except one who has [g]the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. 18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666. [NKJV courtesy BibleGateway.com – the Greek is particularly illuminating on ’emblem of the hand’: click image to read in full.]

1st GOD-INCIDENCE

Friday 26th June was the latter half of 24 hours of fasting to finish a week of prayer held by our church. I limited my drinks to tea or coffee and didn’t have any accompanying ‘yummies’! Therefore, this unusual when joining a couple for a chat over morning coffee at Petersfield Heath. It was their first time near others since the start of lockdown three months ago.

For several weeks the outdoor cafe has opened on certain days to serve take-away drinks, subject to ‘socially distanced’ queuing and not handling items, such as cash, for the good of the staff’s health. So, it’s ‘contactless payments only’. We’ve known the manager since the cafe first opened and my card is not enabled for such payments, so they allow me to pay by tapping my PIN whilst wearing one of their disposable gloves.

Last Friday, the manager took orders and asked if I don’t use contactless on principle, so I answered “Yes”. He said local Environmental Health officials are instructing businesses to reopen by following his method of accepting money. That is, local firms are now encouraged not to accept any cash, thus avoiding the risk of Covid-19 virus, and move entirely to payments enabled by a digital personal number – as foretold in Revelation 13!

2nd GOD-INCIDENCE

That evening Neil Mackereth emailed me a new article in which he quotes those verses in connection with a vaccination programme against the Covid-19 virus. The pertinent part coinciding with what I’d heard that morning, reads:

“Everyone will be encouraged to have the vaccination and, for seemingly very sensible reasons, to have an identifying mark (like a tattoo) to show their immunity.
In the early stages of “normalisation”, retail outlets (shops, pubs, restaurants etc.) will be able to relax social distancing restrictions, for those who can show that they have been vaccinated (i.e. have the mark of immunity)…I am not suggesting that it will be inappropriate to have the vaccination. However, if it is conditional on having some sort of mark, great care will be needed in assessing the appropriateness, in light of God’s guidance on the subject. (see Revelation 13:16-18).”

3rd GOD-INCIDENCE

Also, on Friday my phone alerted me to a YouTube video prophet Tomi Arayomi had issued the previous day in which he divulges a dream about lockdown of markets relating to the implantation of radio-frequency identification (RFID) micro-chips. He also brings an important prophetic word for the Church in these days.
In my humble opinion this video is essential viewing! It is most important that we know about such matters because they are directly relevant to End-Times and clearly indicate we’re now there..!!

No wonder I’m ‘God-smacked’ over what the Lord brought to my attention 7 days ago!

“By the mouth of two or three witnesses the matter shall be established” (Deuteronomy 19:15)

‘Two or three prophets should speak, and the others should weigh carefully what is said’ (1 Corinthinans 14:29)

End-Times Briefing 12: an overview of the Book of Revelation

Briefing 11’s Introduction to the Book of Revelation draws to a close by its author, Neil Mackereth, stating “Apocalyptic works seek to inform the reader about aspects of an End-Times drama. The grand climax of the Bible is imminent — that is to say, it could happen at any moment…”  He reminds us, “The Bible explains that two absolute powers or principles operate in the universe…In the book of Revelation (and the whole Bible), God himself is the ultimate source of all that is good; Satan and his followers refuse to submit to God and are the ultimate source of evil. This ethical dichotomy underlies the conflict within the book of Revelation”.:

OVERVIEW OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION

The Prologue provides essential information for understanding the meaning and structure of the Book of Revelation. “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants what must soon take place; he made it known by sending his angel to his servant John, who testified to the word of God and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, even to all that he saw.” (Rev. 1:1–2).

Apostle John conveys to his first-century readers the unveiling of Jesus. It’s something like the showing of a video of a Monarch and his court. The Book of Revelation is written for Christians who understand the language of a faith unique to Christian experience. But given the complexity of the metaphors and images, even “insiders” have difficulty understanding Revelation. However, anyone can grasp the basic message: Jesus is going to return to earth, overthrow Satan’s evil empire, reward his faithful followers, punish those who reject his Lordship, and create a new heaven and a new earth.

From the very start, it is abundantly clear that God holds the Book of Revelation to be of paramount importance.

Revelation continues with 7 letters dictated by Jesus to John for distribution to the churches at: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea. The letters, which summarise positive and negative aspects of these representative churches, have stood the test of time.  They were written over 1,900 years ago but signpost conditions and circumstances that continue to exist in churches today.

The pattern of the letters is fairly consistent. Each is addressed to a specific church, followed by a particular characteristic of Jesus. Then comes positive comments (none for Sardis or Laodicea) and negative comments (none for Smyrna or Philadelphia), and advice to each.  The letters close with an entreaty that the readers will open their ears and hear, and with a promise to ‘overcomers’, which is different for each church.

These letters are relatively straightforward and understandable (which is not to say that we shouldn’t look for help to “unpack” their full meaning!).

From chapter 4 onwards we move into an altogether more challenging series of visions that are filled with symbolism, allegories, metaphors, imagery and other such figures of speech and apocryphal language: to try to interpret the Book literally would be to miss its meaning.  Some scholars argue that there are seven visions each of which is linked to a matching day in the seven days of creation in Genesis (ie. that the order of events links the beginning with the end).

The timing and sequence of events can be difficult to follow.  This is in part because the very act of writing things down gives them an order that may not be intended.  Some of the actions recorded are clearly happening simultaneously.

I have the impression that John (Jesus’ scribe) is seeing visions on a huge scale (like vast paintings) and trying to scribble down what catches his eye, without necessarily having time to arrange and classify the information.  It is clear that there are two or three sections that are digressions or parentheses from the central narrative.

Furthermore, the unusual style, which is not in character with John’s other writings, may have remained ‘unedited’ because of the very strong warning against alteration given in Rev. 22: 18-19.  These verses show us again that Revelation is both unique and of huge significance: no other book of the Bible has such a ‘health warning’!

In simple terms, Revelation shows that:

  • Things on earth are not right and the Church is not as it should be (Rev. 2 & 3);
  • Things in heaven are right: God is on His throne and Jesus is the overseer and leader for the End-Time plan and action (Rev. 4 & 5);
  • The world will suffer great tribulation for 3½ years, under the unholy trinity of Satan, the antichrist and the false prophet (Rev. 6-18);
  • Jesus will return as King of kings and Lord of lords, defeat the armies of the unholy trinity and establish His rule on the earth for a thousand years. The Day of Judgement will be at the end of the millennium rule, followed by the ushering in of the new heaven, new Earth and new Jerusalem (Rev. 19-22).

JESUS WINS!

End-Times Briefing 11: an intro’ to the Book of Revelation

It’s now time to expand upon Briefing 3’s listing of Signs from the Gospel accounts and Paul’s letters by considering ‘The Apocalypse’, as in the annexures to Neil Mackereth’s paper dated 21st May: Simplicity.  First, recall Apostle John’s opening remarks on its awesome origin, along with benediction (Young’s Literal Translation – in Greek here):

A revelation of Jesus Christ, that God gave to him, to shew to his servants what things it behoveth to come to pass quickly; and he did signify [it], having sent through his messenger to his servant John, who did testify the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ, as many things also as he did see. Happy is he who is reading, and those hearing, the words of the prophecy, and keeping the things written in it — for the time is nigh!

AN INTRODUCTION TO THE BOOK OF REVELATION

The challenge in introducing Revelation to a new audience, or to infrequent readers of the book, is twofold: how do we make sense of this strange book; and how do we overcome longstanding antipathy to it, which, unfortunately, is often reinforced by those who should be explaining its message. I want to describe what apocalyptic literature is and to provide a basic overview of what Revelation is about.

The Bible, at its opening, quickly moves to the fall of man and the success of Satan. Then follows God’s sovereign selection of His chosen people Israel, the story of their triumphs, failures, trials and tribulations up to the first coming of Christ.  The New Testament describes Jesus’ life and role as Redeemer King, His death, resurrection and ascension to heaven.  At the close of the Bible, Jesus returns, Satan is overthrown and his followers are defeated.  Without the Book of Revelation, the story would be incomplete.

First, I believe it is essential to consider what the writer’s mindset might have been, if we are to have any hope of untangling and understanding the book’s mysteries. Continue reading

End-Times Briefing 10 cont’d: key signs and prophecies

We continue Annex A to Simplicity and examine some items in earlier Briefings:

KEY END-TIME (or SECOND ADVENT) SIGNS and PROPHECIES

An awareness of End-Time signs will help us to see if any world events, as they unfold in the weeks, months and years ahead, can honestly be described as fulfilling Biblical prophecy. Analysis of world events in relation to prophecy requires care and integrity, both to ensure genuine spiritual significance, and to avoid “false news”, conspiracy theories and the pronouncements of false prophets. It will be exceedingly hard to convince a sceptical world that prophecy is being fulfilled!

Some prophecies in the Bible seem particularly significant, in light of current world events, especially in the Middle-East. The following prophecies are worth bearing in mind, especially by those who are intentional about marrying historic prophecies with contemporary occurrences. They are, in short, signs of the End-Times: Continue reading

The depth of the five scripture passages of the 2nd Signpost — Mark Davidson

After learning about a ‘chiasmus’ in the Book of Jonah during Sunday’s service, it’s note-worthy how Mark Davidson explains this literary-spiritual device within certain prophetic passages on current events in the Middle-East…

While we are waiting for the next significant news item from Iran and the Middle East, it seemed good to have a review of the Scripture passages all having a say in the Second Signpost. This is meant to remind us that the Second Signpost, the invasion by Iran of the Middle East, is more […]

Bible Update: Red flag flies over Mahdi’s mosque: Apocalypse’s 2nd horseman may now have its sword!

ESSENTIAL READING: Mark Davidson brings what may be the most important insight you may read on the immediate aftermath of America taking decisive, defensive action against a regime that is actually hell-bent on bringing about the End of the World, as covered here on Richard’s Watch in many postings under the Mahdi tag.

It’s absolutely imperative ALL Christians – especially those in leadership – know about the eschatalogical impulse behind the Iranians engineering such a conflict in order to bring about the return of Shi’ite Islam’s 12th ‘hidden imam’, followed en-train by Jesus!!

For a fuller grasp of this dangerous doctrine browse through the above tag, starting with my blog of nearly 7 years ago Iranian Leader’s End-Times Declaration.

I never thought I would be writing an article like this, for I had never thought one single event could equate to the second horseman being made ready to make men slay one another. There are reports from Twitter and, at this point, only British tabloids such as the Express, Metro, and Sun, that something […]

A prophetic word on the coming ‘bowls of the fury of God’

Now that Facebook can at last connect this blog’s Fb page with my previously unused personal profile, I’ve been pinning a few of its posts and hubs to its ‘wall’ or timeline by way of an intro’ to my writing upon Biblical and contemporary Christian prophecy.

Doing that reminded me of the difference between ancient and modern prophecy, which after due weighing and testing, provides a means of hearing from God before we arrive at the End-times foretold in scripture. Therefore, I mused upon when and how those two modes of hearing Him will converge in the run-up to the Millennium, when Jesus Christ returns bodily to reign and rule on earth. 

AND “Lo and Behold!” within a couple of days I get an email on that subject, as in preparing for things to come, which reads as follows: Continue reading

The Coming Davidic Messiah

This summation of the who, what and why of the up-coming Millennium is a valuable reminder of our goal as active Christians. Also, knowledge of the Kingdom as our inheritance is fundamental because our spiritual opponents claim ignorance of that fact dis-empowers believers (see Christian Inheritance & End-times Church for source.)

Nicholas's avatarAll Along the Watchtower

To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

-Revelation 3:21

The Kingdom is woven into all the teachings of Christ. He taught us to pray, “Thy Kingdom come”. He taught that our good deeds on earth are seen by our Father in Heaven, and that He will reward us in the resurrection. He taught that His Kingdom is not of this world, and that this world is in darkness. Christ’s moral teaching is so sublime as to be unattainable by the flesh: it is the power of the Spirit, who is given to us as an earnest of the Kingdom, that makes us able to live as Christ did.

In our suffering, the resurrection is our comfort. The Kingdom is what we are striving for: even as we wait…

7 years ago today: the Key To Foretelling The Future

Now, dear reader, let’s turn the dials in our imaginary time machine again. Set your watch back yet another 700-odd years – and discover how we can go forward from there!

This takes us to the time ancient Rome was founded and the first Olympic Games got under way in ancient  Greece.  Also, Assyria was poised to conquer the Middle East and become a mighty regional power.

A Hebrew prophet and student of geopolitics, Isaiah, could see conflict approaching and, sure enough, the northern kingdom of Israel, Samaria, fell to Assyria in 721BC. A couple of decades earlier, Isaiah had a profound vision of the glory of The Holy Lord of Heavenly Hosts within His temple (see 6th chapter of The Book of Isaiah).

Update on End-times’ cashless society (Rev 13:16-18’s Mark of the Beast)

Noticed on this weekend’s World Watch Daily homepage display (the other headline on US Supreme Justice Kavanaugh is noteworthy too!):

Click image for direct link to Fox News article

It reminds me of the prophecy at Revelation 13:16-18 on the activity of the ‘Beast from the Earth’:

‘He was granted power to give breath to the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak and cause as many as would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. 16 He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads, 17 and that no one may buy or sell except one who has [g]the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
18 Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.’

Also, reminds me what internationally renowned Australian Barry R Smith taught on the emerging technology soon to introduce a cashless society and ‘Pay & Go’, as read over 20 years ago in ‘…better than Nostradamus’ and ‘The Devil’s Jigsaw’!

Brexit-EU battles follow Bible history and prophecy – 1: ‘spirit of Herod’ exposed in politics

It’s important not to loose sight of the fuller insights afforded by two related words from the Lord received during Trooping the Colour; one in 2016 only days before the EU-Referendum, the other this year just before Parliament voted on the EU (Withdrawal) Bill.

Troops parading along The Mall on return to barracks after the Trooping the Colour ceremony in Horse Guards Parade (photo BBC iplayer)

Having appeared ‘out-of-the-blue’ in our own house, the first word (“This is My country”) enabled me to recognise the authenticity of the extensive one Veronika West received . Both words bring news of Father’s heart for Great Britain, thereby confirming we’re in His awesome plan.

However, there’s one aspect of that second word we’ve yet to consider, AND it links the European Union, our government and the church to Bible history and prophecy – even bringing a fresh insight to eschatological theory.

Also, I submit that it accounts for the deep, persistently anti-democratic stance of EU-Remainers.

This year’s word came on 9th June and Veronika posted video-cum-notes entitled, A Divine Convergence, a Trooping of the Colours, the (Fox) Spirit of Herod over the Land, of which I quote extracts below and underline points for consideration:

She was told, “Daughter Look and See for the Spirit of Herod seeks to destroy and annihilate the Vision and Destiny of this Nation, WATCH AND PRAY! for this cunning, crafty and treacherous Spirit is now operating over the Government and the Church in this Nation”! …

…He then likened the Houses of Parliament to a HEN HOUSE and said, “Just as a fox comes to the hen house under the cover of darkness to scatter, to steal, to kill and to destroy, so the fox has come to the Houses of Parliament in this Nation”.

The Holy Spirit quickened her to read Luke 13:31-32 where Jesus referred to Herod as ‘”that fox” and she explains, “Now as I read that verse, I inquired again from the Holy Spirit what He was showing me and He revealed to me that the ‘Fox’ was prophetically symbolic of the Spirit of Herod that is now operating over the Nation. The Spirit of Herod comes with the purpose and goal of total destruction and annihilation, this cunning and dangerous spirit comes at a time when a people, nation or individual is about to reach full maturity, growth, purpose and Destiny. The Spirit of Herod hates anything good or godly, this treacherous spirit seeks only to kill and destroy destinies that are on the verge of blooming.

‘As I continued praying, I began to see a powerful prophetic parallel unfolding before (me) concerning the Nation and BREXIT. I clearly began to see how this same Spirit of Herod which came against the Destiny of Jesus, John the Baptist, Elijah (operating through Jezebel), Moses and Joseph is now operating over our Government and over the Church in the Nation. This Spirit of Herod is Warring against the people of God in this Nation, and this Treacherous Spirit is contending for the Birthright and Destiny of Great Britain. (This Spirit of Herod is a GREAT THREAT TO THE NATION AT THIS TIME)!”

Drawing her to a close, Holy Spirit repeated but in more detail:

“Daughter just as the fox was seen on parade square in the light of day, out in the open for everyone to see, Watch! as My Spirit of Truth and Righteousness moves to uncover, expose and bring to light the works of wickedness and witchcraft in the land, and Watch! For those who have dishonoured Me and who have turned away and rebelled against My plans and purposes in the Nation, I will cause them to be stripped naked and paraded out in the open before all men, FOR NO LONGER WILL MY JUSTICE AND VINDICATION TARRY IN THIS NATION”!

So, this word reveals that this ‘spirit of Herod’ exhibits a dual-aspect of “operating over the Government and the Church”. In my opinion, it may possibly be identified with one of the satanic ‘trinity’ known in deliverance ministry as the Spirit of Jezebel.

OVER THE GOVERNMENT:

We observed the political aspect of this prophecy start to manifest within days. It was publicly exposed by the Daily Mail (see Today’s Press Scoop Exposes Anti-Brexit Schemers) followed later by The Telegraph’s summary, ‘An Often Baffling Episode in The Brexit Story’. Meanwhile, my scripture trail on the parliamentary plotting brought a surprising insight, which soon got confirmed. The skullduggery continued across the political spectrum and a month later a video summary unwittingly captured the above prophecy’s specific aspect: Mogg ‘Outfoxed’ Remainers To Save Brexit.

Those blogs considered evidence of a ‘spirit of Herod’ operating through people in, or directly connected with, Government. In part 2 we’ll consider its modus operandi within the Church.

Prophetic Parallel

First, however, let’s unpack the “powerful prophetical parallel” Veronika saw between that spirit’s working against the destiny of Old Testament prophets, Jesus’ birth and life and today’s intense, prolonged battles over Britain’s destiny and our leaving the EU.

As in biblical times, this spirit of Herod’s mission would be to constrict any nation that has a holy history in God’s purposes into becoming a vassal state of the ungodly (even satanically directed) modern Roman Empire, and thus stop it moving into its destiny!

Herod ‘the Great’ was ancient Rome’s puppet ruler of its province of Judea and the Jewish people, plus Galilee, Samaria, Idumea, Peraea and territories north-eastward. As recorded in Luke’s historically detailed Gospel, this Herod treacherously told the eastern magi who were searching for new-born Jesus that he wanted to visit and worship the child born to be king of the Jews. But instead, he directed the ruthless massacre of boys under the age of two years! (His sons Herod Antipas inherited Galilee and Archelaus, Judea, but after the latter’s banishment through incompetence in 6 AD it came under the direct control of a procurator responsible to Rome (eg. Pilate).

Therefore, we notice the spirit of Herod’s mission in our day is once again on behalf of a man-made empire founded upon and growing out of the Treaty of Rome (1957) that’s now a large, united federation of European nations, thereby re-establishing a ‘Revived Roman Empire’; as may have been foretold in the Bible’s closing book at Revelation 13:3 (see Footnotes).

That insight enables us to understand the intensely vociferous anti-democracy aim of EU-Remainers, and the dishonesty, betrayal and treachery working within government but now exposed by Prime Minister May’s Chequers Agreement, plus its political fall-out in which many claim this would leave Britain as a vassal state of the EU!!

Moreover whilst I mull it over, Herod started building the magnificent Second Temple in Jerusalem in 19 BC but it wasn’t completed until 64 AD – six years before the Romans destroyed it. That wasn’t so much because the Jews rebelled against Rome, but more from Jesus’ prophetically weeping over the city, because they “did not know the time of your visitation!” (Luke 19:41-44).

Therefore, in considering prophetic parallels, is it fanciful to think that, as the European Economic Community and its subsequent governmental beast, the European Union and its parliament’s modern Tower of Babel, are ruled over by the spirit of Herod then it, too, could follow the destiny of his earlier achievement? That the EU too will fail and fall; be dismantled and destroyed with little left to mark its earlier existence??

I close with realising this is the second ‘scriptural trail’ that’s led to ‘the fall of Babylon’ reference. (The first followed a scriptural remark by Jacob Rees-Mogg MP indirectly related to ‘the fox’, as told here and confirmed later.)

Also, we again note that Bible prophecy and contemporary prophetic word, albeit a different one received November 2015 (here), firmly predict the EU’s eventual fall.

Footnotes:
  • Evangelical theologian John F Walwoord’s The Revelation of Jesus Christ – ‘The Deadly Wound of the Beast’: ’13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.’ John in his vision sees one of the heads of the beast as wounded unto death, and the apparent parallelism is to the slain Lamb, described in 5:6. John further observes that the deadly wound (literally “plague”) is healed and that the entire earth marvels at the beast…The wounding of one of the heads seems instead to be a reference to the fact that the Roman Empire as such seemingly died and is now going to be revived. It is significant that one of the heads is wounded to death but that the beast itself is not said to be dead…The beast is both personal and the empire itself; so also is the head. The revival of the future empire is considered a miracle and a demonstration of the power of Satan.’
  • There’s some debate among scholars as to whether or not this passage, relating as it does to the vision of the fourth beast described in Daniel chapter 7, refers to an empire, nation or to an individual, eg. the Antichrist (per Dr A. Fruchtenbaum).
