THE VISION
Timeline of Events
After many years of prophetic words being given to me and God revealing the life changes I would encounter, nothing could have prepared me for the upheaval I met with in 2010. It was just before Christmas, December 2010 that I was Spirit-ushered into a season of unprecedented chaos and change as my quiet life was turned over. By early 2011, I did not recognise my life. Today, as the Lord rebuilds my life and restore everything to me you would not think I had had those early fiery testing experiences. With the benefit of hindsight I can now see that it was the velocity of the prophetic mantle at work to bring about the necessary changes that would usher me on a lonely journey of exceptional faith.
In those early days of a life change, amidst the discomforts, loss, challenges and demonic interferences, the Spirit would continue to urge me on. Single-mindedly, in quiet confidence and obedience I ploughed on against all odds, unsure of where it would all lead. With no other life experiences of similarity to draw on, I kept moving through the choppy violent prophetic waters of blind faith. With clearer vision I can now appreciate that God, in His wisdom removed everyone from me so that I had a fair chance to birth the ministry. The church environment was not conducive as a safe birth chamber for an end time strategic healing and restoration call coming forth and thriving.
Season of Intense Revelatory Insight
The peaks and troughs of that early season then ushered me into the decade of ‘Ayin’. (5770) 2010. It was during the 10 years from 2010 to 2019 that I encountered an active season of dreams, visions and revelations for the call. I was Spirit-fed and informed with exceptional visionary insight of what the prophetic call would entail. The word for Turkey, ‘I want you to establish it in a conference in the place of the 7-fold churches’ was given to me in the winter of 2012. The full vision for the 7-Fold Churches of Asia Minor would unfold in time. In 2015 under a strong prophetic grace to write, I released 6 books for publication. The 7th book, ‘The Forgotten Christians of Asia Minor’, I was led to withhold from publication. It would be during Passover 2018 that I was Spirit-urged to prepare it for publication.
As I entered the decade of ‘Pey’ (5780), 2020, the Spirit-release after Pentecost 2020 was to begin writing yet again. What I was given to write in 2015 I was now required to release snippets on this prophetic blog site. It is not surprising that I should be writing again as ‘Pey’ (5780), 2020 is the decade of the ‘mouth’. All that was revealed and given during ‘Ayin’ in visions, dreams and revelations that I wrote in 7 books was now, as excerpts been released under a strong mantling. Since Pentecost 2020 I have been pouring out, announcing and warning despite appearing to be a ‘lone voice’ in the spiritual wilderness. The mantle I have been endowed with is a strategic one. Therefore, my remit is undoubtedly with the leadership, particularly within the Body of Christ and nations. God requires the Body of Christ to repent and fall in alignment with where the Spirit is leading the global Church. Collectively we are unfit for purpose and Jesus the Head of His Church is preparing her for His return.
Restoration and Healing
As mentioned earlier, the vision for Turkey was given to me in the winter of 2012. ‘I want you to establish it in a conference in the place of the 7.fold churches’. It was during that exceptionally challenging season of blind faith that I was Sprit-led into a strong Turkish community to acquire a building. Whilst there I would meet the Spirit-assigned Turkish connections as I pursued this extraordinary lonely journey. Immense faith and trust in being Spirit-led has always brought me to each stage of the timely prophetic sign-postings. I have never doubted God’s leading as the peace bearing me up has been next to none. There were times when momentarily, the veil covering my humanness of vulnerability and fear would shift, it was then I could appreciate the exceptional mantle of covering I was under. Without this level of covering I could not have survived to give a witness account of what an end time strategic prophetic healing and restoration mantle entailed. Even now I cannot truly visualise the greater scheme of things unfolding around me but what I do know is that a substantial presence of the Godhead abides with me.
I am fully aware that this strategic 7’fold healing call is for restoration of the things of God. The call to Turkey and the restoration of the apostles work in what was once Asia Minor, is just one aspect of this phenomenal move of God. Back in 2015, the Spirit consoled and reassured me that I would get an ‘out of Egypt deliverance’, as everyone and everything has been against me birthing this ministry. Everything is about to make sense and to unveil before our very eyes. What a beautiful thing God is bringing about under His New Order.
The Alevi Christians
It is to the Alevi community of people that the Spirit has led me to. They are indigenous to Turkey, living predominantly in the Anatolian regions in the South of Turkey. Collectively, they hold strong faith that they are essentially the root from the early apostles’ work in Asia Minor. I have done much research on this persecuted group and I was Spirit urged to write the vision entitled, “The Forgotten Christians of Asia Minor.” “Then the LORD answered me: “Write down this vision and clearly inscribe it on tablets, so that a herald may run with it. (3) For the vision awaits an appointed time; it testifies of the end and does not lie. Though it lingers, wait for it, since it will surely come and will not delay.” (Habakkuk 2:2-3, BSB)
I have no doubt in my mind that the Alevi people, as given me by the Spirit are the remnant of the apostles missionary work in Asia Minor. I believe what the Spirit has revealed to me for this end time as the culminating work of the Elect Church goes into full throttle. “For the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing his secret to his servants the prophets” (Amos 3:7, BSB) “Who is the Spirit of God revealing His strategic secrets too?“ ‘Don’t ask me – ask God!.’
These ardent adherents of the faith are God’s best kept secret. They are a significant group of the end time harvest of souls to come into the kingdom of God in this full and perfect time. Through the spiritual restoration of this group, many other persecuted christians in nations, also remnants of the apostolic; work by those who left Jerusalem under Jesus’ commission, will be released. It is full time for persecuted christians, adversely affected by religious isolation, to be restored to their full christian heritage in Jesus. A #NewPentecost outpouring will procure their rightful spiritual heritage.
The mantle of this restoration and healing call is two-fold. Firstly, it has come out of a painful transition from one level of ministry in a pentecostal entity. God is now restoring the years of the destroying agents as he brings full restoration, reconciliation and healing to my family and all other families in this ‘now’ season. Secondly, as we approach the ‘7th Sabbatical Year of Release’ (Shmita), Rosh Hashanah (5782), the healing mantle will be stirred in its fullness as we approach Sukkot, (Feast of Tabernacle) on 20th September. It was at this yearly feast, those many years ago when Jesus announced the invitation to ‘Come Drink of Me’. “On the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood up and called out in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.” (John 7:37, BSB). His impassioned call to the thirsty fell on deaf ears as the religious leaders and the unsuspecting worshippers carried on in the Old Mosaic Order. Jesus represented the New Order, a Covenant of grace but they were blinded by religion and dismissive of His Reconciliation Ministry.
‘Come, Drink Of Me’
As we approach Sukkot on 20th September, thereafter, the scene will be set, reminiscent of that last and greatest day of the feast. In 2015 the Spirit revealed that there would be a New Order. I have continued to pour forth and sound a scriptural shofar blast to the spiritual changes unfolding in this season. The Invitation to ‘Come, Drink of Me’ (John 7:37) is for the Body of Christ. It is for the imminent end time flow of the Water of Life. The people of God, like the temple worshippers need to be vivified in this end time flow.
It will not be the nominal changes taking place in churches, organisations and denominations that will bring the people to the higher order of kingdom works. It will be the 7-fold restoration and healing mantle that the Body of Christ has slighted and ignored. The mantle has been given through the prophetic ministry to prepare the end time Church for the rapture of the saints. “in an instant, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.“ (1 Corinthians 15:52, BSB). It will not be business as usual. From hereon the prophetic ministry under the leading of the Spirit will be evident as never before to accomplish the will of God in the earth. “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, BSB). God’s chosen servants for this end season will be visible and demonstrative under the leading of the Spirit.
Like Moses, strategically placed by God to lead His people out of Egypt, I believe we will see this approach to leadership reinstated. Aaron and Miriam were uncomfortable that only Moses should be hearing strategically from God. I truly believe that this will be the case for this end time. A new platform has been built and prepared for the end time Church, A collective approach under the leading of the Spirit will be the new norm for the Elect Body. A strategic unified entity will culminate the work of the Church here on earth. If the current leaders will obey, they will be instrumental in developing the cohort of fresh willing leaders, grateful participants in the day of the #NEWPENTECOST Spirit flow.
