 The Book of Revelation never really made sense to me until I had read through Daniel and all the books of the prophets;


But the books of the prophets never really made sense to me until I read through all the books of the Law and the chronicles of Israel…beginning with Genesis. 


(It is futile to attempt to build a solid structure without first preparing deep and solid foundations…how can we attempt to understand the end of the book, if we have not first read in order, the beginning and the middle?)


A long time back, God told me to simply read the entire Bible from cover to cover, in chronological order, with no agenda in mind but to know Him. (chronological because it would be easier to connect the dots - and the Bible is a book of connection, where one scripture interprets another scripture, where everything in its context makes sense, and where there are no contradictions)


…Two things the Lord told me: “Keep going!” And “Hold on (because it’s going to be the ride of your life)!” So beginning in Genesis, I grasped, as if it were a climbing rope, the scarlet thread of Redemption thrown out in ch3:15 and hand-over-hand began the journey. 


Since I began…


~I have been healed and delivered of things I thought to be immovable. 

~I have a transformed and much more mature perception of God: Father, Son & Holy Spirit, which in itself has transformed me…I know Him.


Things I have heard so much, but now, through reading the entire Bible, I have seen with my own eyes….


~That Israel was (and still is) is the apple of God’s eye, (not because they deserved it, but because out of Israel would come the fulfillment of Genesis 3:15)…


~That Israel was (and still is) the center of satan’s attention…for this exact same reason.✝️


~That through Israel, Salvation would come to ALL the nations of the earth…because Salvation comes from the Jews” (John4:22)


~That other nations - whether good or bad - would  come and go, rise and fall ,but at the end one nation would be left standing, at the center of the whole Earth - Israel…


~That the Lord has an appointed time for the Unveiling of Yeshua the Messiah for Israel…it is out job to pray that they would be ready to receive Him when He comes.


~That the Lord has ALWAYS had only one plan…and is always one step ahead of satan, who is always pursuing…but never catching.


~That scripture in its context, truly does interpret scripture…I had not even finished reading the Old Testament and already half the Book of Revelation had been interpreted for me.


~That it is this “Revelation of Jesus Christ”…the closing chapter of the Book…that is the foundation of every other chapter, since the very beginning.


~That the Word of God is alive, active and sharper than a double edged sword. Heaven and earth will pass away, but the Word (John1:1) will never pass away (Matthew 24:35)

 ~~2Chronicles7:14~~ The hand cannot say to the eye I do not need you. We need each other; the famous cannot say to the unknown “you’ve got it wrong”, just because he is an ‘unknown’. We do not earn the gifts or the calling on our lives: if this were the case, the Church would be the proudest most competitive structure on earth. God gives gifts and callings to whomever He will, and in whichever season He chooses: The purpose being that we would work together, to enhance and fortify each other as One Body: We are not the ‘Club of Hands’ or the ‘Tribe of Eyes’: We are the Body of Christ; where the eyes need the nose as surly as the foot needs the toes. When we work together under One Head - especially in the prophetic, we validate, strengthen and clarify what God is trying to show us, providing we do not contradict  His will (revealed in the pattern of his Word). So if one prophesies persecution, while another prophesies revival, let’s get on our knees and prayerfully take to heart  both

Revival Through Repentance

I hear so much about, revival: eg: a revival among the youth, has been prophesied for years - (I’m believing God for that one). But my heart is this:  What if:  The Spirit of Elijah- where the hearts of the older generations will be turned toward the younger; specifically the hearts of the fathers to the children, moved again in the Church? What if God would instigate a revival that would actually UNITE generations instead of dividing them; young, old, and everyone in between (so it would not be accredited to any specific age group- not accredited to us at all? - a mistake made too many times in the past). For we have all sinned and fallen short of God’s standard.  What if this awakening began with repentance, weeping, brokenness, as if being “cut to the heart.”? - Pastors - local pastors even breaking down in tears at their own pulpits, in a move of repentance that then would spread throughout their congregations. This is what I believe I saw several years ago. What if faithful, humbl

 Only in the ‘Gethsemane’ of pressure and squeezing, will the anointing oil flow. The Body of Christ must go through this, and the western church is at the beginning stages. I saw the fire of God falling on His Church all over the world; and I heard the cries of the saints going up: We were being purged, cleansed, purified, liberated from things of this world - it was the liberation of crucifixion and we were crying out for it - in the midst of it - desiring deeply to be crucified with Christ (Gal 2:20). The fire was bitter-sweet; glorious because it was painful only to the flesh... We must choose: either crucify it, or perish with it. Then after the fire of crucifixion came the rain of resurrection: - A trickle at first.  As the fire continued to burn in the saints, the  heavens were opened - and so were the tombs! And a Church that had been led by the Lord, all the way through the fiery furnace, began to emerge, as if rising up from the ashes: A resurrection - an awakening.  Then as
