• The Last Great Revival Before the Return of Christ

    Theme: When God Awakens Nations Before the King Appears
    Scripture Anchor: “In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.” — Acts 2:17

    Before the trumpet sounds and Christ returns in glory, Scripture declares there will be a mighty outpouring of the Spirit—a revival unlike any before. This revival is not confined to one nation or generation; it is global, sweeping across cultures, ages, and denominations. It is the final awakening, preparing the Bride for the Bridegroom.

    Acts 2:17 establishes the principle: the last days are marked by a Spirit‑outpouring. Joel’s prophecy fulfilled at Pentecost points forward to a greater fulfillment before Christ’s return. Revival is heaven’s strategy to gather souls and purify the Church before the King comes.

    The last great revival represents:
    - Outpouring: God’s Spirit poured on all flesh.
    - Harvest: Multitudes brought into the kingdom.
    - Purification: The Bride made ready.
    - Unity: Believers across nations joined in one Spirit.
    - Testimony: Evidence of God’s power before the end.

    The struggle manifests as:
    - Opposition: Satanic resistance to awakening.
    - Deception: False teachings to distract.
    - Persecution: Pressure against the faithful.
    - Complacency: Hearts asleep in comfort.
    - Testing: Faith refined in fire.

    - Revival is not hype—it is holy transformation.
    - The last revival is not man‑made—it is Spirit‑driven.
    - Opposition is not victory—it is proof of God’s movement.

    From heaven’s view, the last great revival is the Bride’s final preparation. God pours His Spirit to awaken, purify, and empower His people. Heaven rejoices as nations turn, because it signals the nearness of Christ’s appearing.

    What the Last Revival Produces
    - Repentance: Hearts broken before God.
    - Holiness: Lives set apart.
    - Power: Signs, wonders, and miracles.
    - Unity: Barriers broken among believers.
    - Harvest: Souls gathered for eternity.

    Signs the Last Revival Is Stirring
    1. Global hunger: Nations crying out for truth.
    2. Youth rising: Sons and daughters prophesying.
    3. Supernatural manifestations: Visions, dreams, and miracles.
    4. Persecution increasing: Resistance against the faithful.
    5. Bride awakening: Church purified for the Bridegroom.

    Assignment for Believers
    - Prepare your heart: Repent and consecrate yourself.
    - Seek His Spirit: Cry out for fresh outpouring.
    - Reject complacency: Do not sleep in comfort.
    - Stand boldly: Endure opposition with faith.
    - Magnify Christ: Exalt Him as the Coming King.

    Beloved, the last great revival before the return of Christ is not a distant dream—it is heaven’s promise. Do not let distraction or fear rob you of participation. His Spirit is your fire, His word is your anchor, and His coming is your hope. Awaken, for the final revival is rising, and the King is at the door.

  • A Nugget of Truth.
    GOD’S WARNING AGAINST QUICK-PROFIT INVESTMENTS, WHAT CAN MONEY STEAL BEFORE IT IS EVER LOST?

    “He that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.” — Proverbs 28:20

    God does not condemn honest business, careful saving, or wise investment.

    He warns against speculation—reckless ventures driven by haste, greed, excitement, and the dream of wealth without patient labor.

    The greatest danger is not an empty account.

    It is a heart emptied of Christ.

    Inspiration warns that the feverish desire to become rich quickly is contrary to the faith God’s people profess.
    ---

    ① IT AWAKENS A HUNGER MONEY CANNOT SATISFY

    Speculation whispers:

    “One more gain—then I will have enough.”

    But covetousness never says, “Enough.”

    “They that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare.” — 1 Timothy 6:9

    When money becomes necessary for peace, identity, or security—

    Christ is no longer treated as sufficient.
    ---

    ② IT REPLACES FAITH WITH FINANCIAL EXCITEMENT

    Faith asks:

    “Lord, what is Your will?”

    Greed asks:

    “How quickly can this multiply?”

    Soon charts are watched more carefully than Scripture.

    Prayer becomes hurried.

    Family worship weakens.

    Mission is postponed.

    “Trust… not in uncertain riches, but in the living God.” — 1 Timothy 6:17

    Satan need not make us openly deny Christ—

    only too absorbed in gain to walk closely with Him.
    ---

    ③ IT RISKS THE MASTER’S PROPERTY

    Everything belongs to Christ.

    We are stewards—not owners.

    “It is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” — 1 Corinthians 4:2

    Speculation treats God’s entrusted means as though no account must be given.

    Stewardship asks, “How can this serve Christ?”

    Greed asks, “How much can this serve me?”

    Every peso carries a responsibility.
    ---

    ④ IT PROMISES FREEDOM—BUT OFTEN CREATES BONDAGE

    Quick-profit ventures may begin with hope—

    then produce anxiety, secrecy, debt, sleeplessness, damaged homes, and desperate attempts to recover losses.

    Inspiration warns that speculative enterprises become a snare and may bring financial and spiritual ruin.

    Failure can empty the pocket.

    Success can enthrone greed.

    The worst bankruptcy is not financial.

    It is spiritual.
    ---

    ⑤ IT TRAINS THE CONSCIENCE TO COMPROMISE

    When profit rules the heart, conviction becomes negotiable.

    Truth may be softened.

    Dishonesty may be excused.

    Giving may feel like loss.

    The Sabbath may become inconvenient.

    “Ye cannot serve God and mammon.” — Matthew 6:24

    Money is a useful servant—

    but a merciless master.

    A venture may earn greatly and still destroy the soul.

    “What shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?” — Mark 8:36
    ---

    ⑥ GOD’S WAY BUILDS BOTH PROVISION AND CHARACTER

    God’s path is not reckless haste, but:

    honest labor, patient diligence, careful planning, contentment, generosity, integrity, and trust in His providence.

    “Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.” — Proverbs 13:11

    Speculation wants the harvest without cultivation—

    the reward without discipline,

    the crown without the cross.

    But God is preparing more than our finances.

    He is preparing our characters for eternity.
    ---

    CHRIST IS THE TREASURE THAT CANNOT COLLAPSE

    Jesus did not grasp for gain.

    He surrendered everything to save us.

    “Though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that ye through His poverty might be rich.” — 2 Corinthians 8:9

    He exchanged heaven’s glory for Bethlehem’s poverty—

    and Calvary’s cross for our eternal life.

    No earthly return can equal the riches found in Christ.

    Therefore:

    Work honestly.
    Plan wisely.
    Reject greed-driven risk.
    Live within your means.
    Give generously.
    Seek Christ first.

    “Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven.” — Matthew 6:20

    The safest investment is not the one promising the fastest return.

    It is the one you can place before Jesus with a clear conscience, manage without covetousness, use to bless others, and explain faithfully in the judgment.

    Beloved, before asking,

    “How much can I earn?”

    Ask:

    “Will this strengthen my faith and serve Christ—or quietly make money my master?”

    A fortune gained while faith is lost is not profit. It is eternal bankruptcy.

  • Tears of Faith

    Have you ever had your heart broken? Or your dreams shattered? Or had your plans crushed by reality?

    That happened to the Jewish people when they were forced to leave their homes and become exiles in a foreign land. Their grief was surely deep and their questions surely plenty, but even their tears couldn’t stop new growth.

    Recorded in Psalm 126, regarding the time “when the Lord brought back his exiles to Jerusalem…”

    “Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy.”
    ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭126:5 NLT‬‬

    Like the Israelites, you might be in a season of unexpected sadness, but joy, fruit, and abundance are waiting on the other side. 

    Are you worried about someone in your family? Are you frustrated with someone at work? Are you devastated or numb regarding a situation in your life? Are you baffled by what you see on the news? Is your health failing you? Is this season not quite what you’d hoped?

    Maybe you truly want to make a difference and you want the people around you to know God, but it’s hard—because you’re trudging forward through tears. 

    The great news is, seeds aren’t picky about moisture, and tears can be a catalyst for growth.

    Like any good book or movie, there’s conflict before there’s resolution. Like a woman in labor, there’s pain before there’s new life. Like a prisoner, there’s the angst of captivity before there’s the relief of freedom. Like any real farmer knows, there’s dirt and sweat before there’s any kind of harvest.

    We don’t always get to choose the environment in which we sow seeds. But regardless, we—people made in the image of God—are called to love Him and love people, to be fruitful and multiply, to go and make disciples, and to trust Him with our grief.

    Joy is often preceded by tears, which should give us great hope.

    So, let’s continue to do the good work God has put before us. Let’s continue to plant seeds in faith, even through tears. Let’s honor Him as we sow our seeds and trust Him with the harvest.

    *A Prayer For Joy In Hard Times*

    Father God, it's hard to keep planting seeds when we are discouraged. When we are heartbroken. But we know that You can use all things for Your glory and our good. Once again, we are trusting You. We are surrendering our plans to You—because Your ways are always best. Thank You in advance for the harvest that's to come. In Jesus’ Mighty Name, Amen.
    *Tears of Faith - Our Tears Are Never Wasted* Have you ever had your heart broken? Or your dreams shattered? Or had your plans crushed by reality? That happened to the Jewish people when they were forced to leave their homes and become exiles in a foreign land. Their grief was surely deep and their questions surely plenty, but even their tears couldn’t stop new growth. Recorded in *Psalm 126,* regarding the time *“when the Lord brought back His exiles to Jerusalem…”* *“Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭126:5* Like the Israelites, we might be in a season of unexpected sadness, but joy, fruit, and abundance are waiting on the other side.  Are we worried about someone in our family? Are we frustrated with someone at work? Are we devastated or numb regarding a situation in our life? Are we baffled by what we see on the news? Is our health failing? Is this season not quite what we’d hoped? Maybe we truly want to make a difference and we want the people around us to know God, but it’s hard—because we’re trudging forward through tears.  The great news is, seeds aren’t picky about moisture, and tears can be a catalyst for growth. Like any good book or movie, there’s conflict before there’s resolution. Like a woman in labor, there’s pain before there’s new life. Like a prisoner, there’s the angst of captivity before there’s the relief of freedom. Like any real farmer knows, there’s dirt and sweat before there’s any kind of harvest. We don’t always get to choose the environment in which we sow seeds. But regardless, we—people made in the image of God—are called to love Him and love people, to be fruitful and multiply, to go and make disciples, and to trust Him with our grief. Joy is often preceded by tears, which should give us great hope. So, let’s continue to do the good work God has put before us. Let’s continue to plant seeds in faith, even through tears. Let’s honor Him as we sow our seeds and trust Him with the harvest. *A Prayer For Joy In Hard Times* Father God, it's hard to keep planting seeds when we are discouraged. When we are heartbroken. But we know that You can use all things for Your glory and our good. Once again, we are trusting You. We are surrendering our plans to You—because Your ways are always best. Thank You in advance for the harvest that's to come. In Jesus’ Mighty Name, Amen.

  • On September 30, 2020, I saw in a vision of something I could not shake.

    A swarm of flaming locusts sweeping across the globe.

    Not cute. Violent swarm carried by the wind.

    Not symbolic in some shallow religious way.

    It was violent in purity.
    Ordered in movement.
    Terrifying in holiness.

    A living picture of a people seized by God and carried by wind.

    Then I heard the Lord say:

    “Even so must My people be. Prepare. Make ready. For there comes a final mighty wind of My Spirit to launch you as a flaming army.”

    I have carried that word for years.
    Quietly.
    Carefully.
    Soberly.

    Because not every vision is meant to be posted the moment it is seen.

    Some things must sit in the fear of the Lord long enough to burn the pride out of the messenger.

    And I am saying this now with trembling:

    I believe the time of preparation is narrowing.

    God is not raising up a casual people for a casual hour.

    He is not gathering performers.
    He is not anointing ambition.
    He is not breathing on religious noise.

    He is preparing a people who know how to wait until the wind comes.

    Because locusts do not move alone.
    They move in swarms.
    They move by timing.

    They move with a force greater than themselves.

    And when the wind takes them, what was hidden becomes unstoppable.

    That is what I believe the Spirit of God is doing in the earth.

    He is forming a flaming army in the secret place.

    Not famous people.
    Faithful people.

    Not polished people.
    Prepared people.

    Not people addicted to platforms.
    People who have been burned clean at the altar.

    This is not the hour for borrowed oil.
    This is not the hour for loud mouths and empty lamps.

    This is not the hour to jump because something looks exciting.

    This is the hour to discern the wind of God.

    To know when to wait.
    To know when to move.
    To know when to leap.

    Jeremiah 51:10–16 speaks of the Lord bringing forth His righteousness and calling His people to declare His work.

    Nahum 3:14–17 speaks of preparation, siege, fire, locusts, and scattering.

    There is a pattern here for those with ears to hear.

    Preparation before release.
    Fire before movement.
    Discernment before assignment.
    Formation before harvest.
    And hear me clearly:

    The darkness we are called to confront must first be burned out of us.

    Because an unpurified vessel cannot carry holy fire without turning it into strange fire.

    So I am praying this again.

    Lord, prepare us.

    Strip the laziness out of us.
    Burn the compromise out of us.
    Deliver us from spiritual performance.

    Teach us to discern what is You and what is only noise wearing Your language.

    Give us timing to jump so the wind can take us
    Give us obedience.
    Give us holy fire.

    Let the mighty wind of Your Spirit come upon a prepared people.

    Make us one body.
    One swarm.
    One flaming army.

    Not to be seen.
    To be sent.

    Not to make a name.
    To bear Your name.
    Not to destroy people.
    To destroy darkness.
    Not to consume souls with control.

    To gather souls into the harvest of Jesus Christ.

    This is not hype.
    This is warning.
    This is preparation.

    This is the sound before the wind.

    I’ve seen enough to stay awake.
    I love enough to warn.
    I fear God enough to speak.

    This is THE WATCH

  • LOOKING BACK ON Battle FOR BRITAIN.. IT INVOLVES BREAKING OF NEW GROUNDS.
    Those who can remember, we all know Battlefield Of Britain ain't for the weak or those who faint but its victory is in the hands of those who keep digging.
    Yes leaving the distraction behind.

    Genesis 26:11–31 — #2024.
    Great message to run with through Isaacs Journey in relation to Britain right now.

    Isaac's journey shows a clear progression. He dug a well, and it was disputed — he named it Esek, meaning contention. He dug another, and it was disputed again — he named it Sitnah, meaning opposition. He did not stop or turn back; he moved on and dug a third well, and this time no one contended over it — he named it Rehoboth, the room God provided. There, at Beersheba, God established him, and even those who had opposed him came and recognised that the LORD was with him.

    When Isaac first reopened the wells his father Abraham had dug, and no one contended over them. It was only when he broke new ground — Esek, then Sitnah — that opposition rose against him. Britain has restored what former generations laid down in the faith, yet in pressing forward into new ground for Christ in this generation, the nation has met contention and now stands in Sitnah. One of the Sitnahs' instruments is law. Isaac did not return to the old wells or retreat; he kept digging new ground until he reached Rehoboth.

    Britain the race is not for the Swift but for them who are able to keep going without fainting.
    So, do not stop digging because of Sitnah. Keep digging, keep praying, keep contending for the faith, keep standing for righteousness, and keep proclaiming Christ — until there is a Rehoboth, a place where God makes room to establish His purposes in this nation; until God is recognised in the land and peace reigns.

    It is written about you.. Are you part of the tribe..
    Hebrews 10:7 And Psalms 40;7-8 reads
    Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come— In the volume of the book it is written of Me— To do Your will, O God.’ ”
    Are his laws written in your hearts?

    Keep This Word In Mind.
    ‭Galatians 6:9 NIV‬
    Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
    #hallelujah
