111 IS MY NUMBER
What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the housetops. (Matthew 10:27, BSB)
I was given a prophetic word sometime ago that 111 is written all over me. In time the Spirit would confirm this word in a scriptural or convincing manner that supports the key aspects of this extraordinary strategic prophetic healing call.. The number 1 represents the Godhead. The number 3 is one of the perfect groups of numbers and indicates a substantial measure. In this case, the Spirit revealed that 111 is a substantial presence of the Godhead abiding with me for the call. I have no doubt concerning this as I have witnessed first hand God’s protective presence in great measure when heaven’s assistance is required. It is indeed reassuring and yet humbling.
These are the Spirit-breathed scriptural references that have been impressed upon me concerning this prophetic call and 111 being my number:-
A PROPHETIC CALL TO THE NATIONS
(Jeremiah 1:11) “The word of the LORD came to me: “What do you see, Jeremiah?” “I see the branch of an almond tree,” I replied.’
My number 111 came up in the book of Jeremiah in the very early years of my call as I entered a dark period of the wilderness journey. God instructed me that He had called me as a prophet to the nations to cast down, root up, pull down and destroy; to establish and build. I had no idea how demanding the word given would bear out in my life. The hardy almond plant is likened to the Word of God that hasten to bring forth fruit. Like Aaron’s rod, the hasten Word will bud, blossom, flower and fruit with rapidity to execute the will of God. It would be an extenuating experience waiting on God that would challenge and test every aspect of my being and life. To hold onto a word from God evokes a response from the realm of evil, with merciless intent. Dependency on the durable cogent word, in time, would built confidence in hearing and knowing the voice of God, above all other well intentioned voices. What seems like delay is an intentional move of God to get the glory as the enemy is given time to make a real ‘pig’s ear’ of a situation. After a season of demonic confusion, chaos and ruin no one can doubt the next move of God concerning the prophetic word given.
FAITH: “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen’ (Hebrews 11:1)
One morning I woke from sleep declaring this verse. When I checked the scripture it was Hebrews 11:1. My 111 number had come up for FAITH. This word came after I learnt of a situation pertaining to the call that reached a deadlock, seeming hopeless. The way I received that word characterised the manner in which God met my needs at those low moments of the journey. His beautiful gestures, fatherly love and timely reassurances are incredibly amazing. Really! The entirety of my prophetic journey has been the substance of faith. I have had to endure painful testings in isolation as I wait on God for the evidence of my faith becoming sight. My experiential walk has required me, in a very conspicuous manner to stand on life’s precarious cliff face of faith. Like the surefooted mountain goat, I have had to endure the stormy variables of life, gripping the harsh rocky terrains of faith on an exposed slope of intense public recriminations. This level of testing can be seen in the likes of Noah and patriots of the faith. It is always for the salvation of nations, even if the message goes unheeded. ‘Surely the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets’ (Amos 3:7, BSB)
‘COME WITH ME’ INVITATION: 1 Corinthians 1:11
‘Follow me as I follow Christ’ (1 Corinthians 1:11.)
111 came up yet again when I was instructed to prepare a ‘Come With Me’ Invitation during Passover week 2020. As I worked on it I heard in my spirit, ‘Follow me as I follow Christ’. I knew immediately that it was the scripture given for the invitation. I checked the scripture and it was 1 Corinthians 1:11. Amazing! Really! Immediately the Spirit brought back to me the vision I had as a child on a few occasions of me flying through the sky over mountains and hills playing a flute. As I moved through the atmosphere, looking behind me I witnessed a great throng of people from all nations following me. They were singing, praising and laughing with joy as we soared through the cloudless skies above the earth. Every time I looked back they just kept coming, coming, coming over the distant horizon. It was electric! From those early childhood memories, I often referred to it as ‘The Pied Piper of Hamlin’ vision. The Spirit further linked the ‘Come With Me’ Invitation to Jesus’ call to those who are longing for a refreshing of the Living Water in John 7:37. “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.”.
7-FOLD CHURCHES OF ASIA MINOR REVELATION:
(Revelation 1:11) “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea”
During my time of prayer and contrition over the season of Rosh Hashanah (2021) and Yom Kippor, I felt led in my spirit to read Revelation 1. I lingered over the reference made of the ‘Revelation of Jesus’ in verse 1. As I continued reading, I was halted at verse 11. My spirit received that this verse, Revelation 1:11 was integral to my prophetic call. “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.” I knew immediately what the Spirit was conveying to me. My number 111 had surfaced again. A reference was being Spirit-fed to me. It was linked to the revelation 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’. I was struck with awe as the Spirit brought the vision for Turkey back to me and linked it to my number 111.
NHS HOTLINE 111: Finally, recently I was watching the news regarding the government’s updated response in the UK to the pandemic. NHS 111 was the new hotline number. The reference to the 111 National Health Service number is no coincidence as 111 is my number for the prophetic end time healing ministry.
