Earlier this week I had a dream. I didn't initially understand it when I woke up but it stayed with me all day in the way that only God-dreams do, so I kept asking Him what He wanted to say and eventually (after a brutally honest conversation with a good friend later that day) the...

Yesterday I shared the picture that gave me as I joined some others to start the New Year in prayer. Today's post is a kind of part two that came almost immediately afterwards. The two images seem to be very different in focus, but actually I believe the second part is about the smaller, practical... Continue Reading →

While praying the New Year in just after midnight this morning, I heard a sound of army troops marching, and looked in the Spirit to see troops upon troops of warriors gathering in formation. They had all heard a trumpet sound calling them to gather and were assembling on the battleground. It was a huge... Continue Reading →

Regular readers of my blog will know that God has ben speaking to me a lot lately about the need to pray for our children & youth and not to forget them or leave them out of what God is saying & doing at this point in history. He has repeatedly said that revival will... Continue Reading →

One of my Christmas presents was Patricia St. John's autobiography. I was reading the part last night about her research into the East African revival in the 1930s and this bit struck me: "As he (a young Dr Joe Church) was climbing Namirembe hill, a young African named Simeoni Nsibainbi stopped him and said shyly,...

Yesterday when I came to prayer I was feeling sad over a recent slip, and identifying with Paul's words in Romans 7:19 - "For the good that I want to do, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want". It's comforting to know that even the apostle Paul... Continue Reading →

About a week ago God asked me to 'unplug' (switching off all social media etc) and just focus on Him and my family. It wasn't easy - I love people and, especially during lockdown, have found the mutual encouragement of good friends to be utterly invaluable. I am privileged to know some amazing godly people...

Last night I was in a prayer meeting (via Zoom) and while we prayed I became aware of a tangible sense of peace-filled anticipation that settled on me like a blanket and has not left since.God reminded me of the 400 year silence at the end of the Old Testament when Heaven seemed to go...

When my husband and I were praying recently with friends, he received a word from Judges 7 about Gideon's army who had been whittled down to just 300, through various subtle tests to reveal their heart attitude; how they were sent to surround the army in groups with trumpets and torches inside clay jars. When... Continue Reading →

As I shared in this morning's post, today I felt overwhelmed by the darkness that the world (including the Church) finds itself in. And God spoke a lot to me, to the point where it became multiple blog posts, as my attempt to communicate clearly. But what I needed to acknowledge was the need I... Continue Reading →
