My Definition As the word of God asked the Prophet Ezekiel can these dry bones live (Ezekiel chapter 37) God gave life to the dead and so in true revival born again Christians get back on fire for God by returning to their love Jesus. The word revives simply means bring back to life or recovers as demonstrated in the preceding paragraph hence the word revival. For more than 20 years I’ve been reading about revivals and listened to, what people have called a revival. In 2006-7 The Holy spirit started to minister to me about revival while I was attending a series of meetings. The Spirit of The Lord came in, as Duncan Campbell would say “God stepped down” it was so glorious to see, heaven invade earth. I thought this is the start of another revival in Wales. The following year I visited America and spent some time visiting what I would call a dead church, maybe it would be better to say the people seemed complacent! While the pastor was one of the most helpful and j...

God Is Not Dead Hollywood is spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ to the rest of the world with its biblical movies, such as God is not Dead, Noah, Son of God, Heaven is for Real and the soon to be released Exodus etc  God is alive!  Friedrich Nietzsche said: “God is dead, and we must become gods.”  Nietzsche died on 25 August 1900, in his early 50s  the Bible says nobody is guaranteed of tomorrow. I wonder what is view is now that he has the opportunity to know the truth about death! Philosophy means ‘the love of wisdom’ or it could be a principle used to guide a behaviour etc. It takes the place of God and challenges his existence. Can a real Christian live in a society without acknowledging that God is alive and we must live our lives according to how he directs us in his word? Or do we use God as a get out of jail free card. How does this compare to people having free will? Well, we are free to do what we want, but if you decide to rob, kill or ...

Darren Wilson Film Producer I was quite surprised to see people like Lenny Kravitz, Brian Welch who were known for their wild music and lifestyles in a video like this, about the manifestation of Gods Holy Spirit moving on the earth today. Darren Wilson was called by God to produce a film about God. This latest instalment called the Holy Spirit, the others being Furious Love, Father of Lights and not forgetting the first The Finger of God. This is live documented action without scripts, so what you see is what you get. The film starts with Darren and the team visiting Salt Lake City (Mormon State) to show that there is a real God, who moves on people, through His presence The Holy Spirit. It’s an interesting scenario seeing God move on people, it almost seems like a magic show but the people are being set free and coming into a real relationship with Jesus Christ.   These films by Darren are done in a style with a lot of live commentary they should be classed a...

Taking The Old And Making It New This CD is classed as ‘Indie’ Jimmy Needham has always been a person that’s not afraid to try different genres with his unique voice. The Hymns Sessions Vol 1 is a perfect to introduce some of the classic hymns to the youth of today who seem to love being entertained rather than heart felt convictions which allow a person to live the Christian life we are called to.  This ten track CD can be called an all-rounder it has the authentic lyrics that will spiritually touch you and other tracks will get you moving to an upbeat rhythm which will also encourage you no matter what age or styles of music you prefer. How great thou art has a touch of Trip Lee rapping, I never thought this song would ever sound so modern. It is completely different to any version which could be a good thing because the words tell the wondrous story. Many guest artists are on this CD Trip Lee already mentioned plus, Shane & Shane on ‘Holy Holy Holy’ and ...

My  Experience As the word of God asked the Prophet Ezekiel can these dry bones live (Ezekiel chapter 37) God gave life to the dead and so in true revival born again Christians get back on fire for God by returning to their love Jesus. The word revives simply means bring back to life or recovers as demonstrated in the preceding paragraph hence the word revival. It’s been more than 22 years since  I've  been reading about revivals and watched, what people have called a revival. In 2006-7 The Holy spirit started to minister to me about revival while I was attending a series of meetings. The Spirit of The Lord came in, as Duncan Campbell would say “God stepped down” it was so glorious to see, heaven invade earth. I thought this is the start of another Welsh revival but it only lasted about 2-3 hours. The following year I visited America and spent some time visiting what I would call a dead church, maybe it would be better to say the people seemed complacent! ...

  The Truth About Racism Ever wondered what it was like for a black person in the UK during the late 1960/70’s, this was a time when you could be attacked for walking down the wrong street or looking the wrong direction. Have you ever been mocked or beaten up because you ate food that contains ‘spices’ or has a name that seems strange to British culture. When I was a child I watched a series called ‘Roots’ which had such an impact on my life, by allowing me to understand why people around me acted the way they did. In 1997 the film Amistad was released. This film was based on the factual treatment of blacks and the Caucasian attitude towards them. In my opinion, one of the most powerful movies about racism towards slaves that I’ve ever watched.  It might be hard for people to comprehend why in this day and age racism needs to be mentioned? It is built within the fabric of society that is overlooked we our selfish in this way – which is why I was anxious to rea...

  Uncaged Man of God     A drug runner is the in between man/woman who holds the gear until it’s delivered. This is what Neil, he was also known in his area as a man who could handle himself in a fight. The strange thing about being a fighter people often want to challenge you, especially in a world full of drugs with people of their heads who think they can take on the world. Neil’s book has great insight into rejection while reading; I could sense that as a youth it is important to with a loving family, with goodly principles divorce doesn’t solve problems. When children are involved it makes things a lot worse for them. This government today is quick to advise people to get divorced or put the children in social service care, instead they should do all they can to help keep families together. Marriage should be for ever not until you have a bad time or we get upset about a situation, we must do what we can to work through our problems. I’ve never been to...

My Personal Tribute I first met Arthur when he was 93 years of age. Some people age, without gaining much wisdom, but this could never be said of Arthur Burt. We got on well, being fellow sportsmen. His  demeanor  was that of a father-figure or statesman. We talked about his walk with God and the time he spent with Smith Wigglesworth, one thing I would say about my friend was that he was without guile! This is why I admired Arthur and his family; they treated you as if you were part of the family. I love that old-fashioned respect, which doesn’t seem to be around much anymore. While interviewing Arthur at 100 years of age, I asked the question ‘What legacy do you want to leave?’ His answer was that ‘we need to be humble’. This man of God realised the curse of pride and spent the latter years of his life exposing his flaws, within his powerful books and humble lifestyle. In his gatherings, Arthur would always giving way to people to speak at meetings whatever ...

Sidewalk Singer Back in the day talented singers and musicians would practice their trade in clubs, pubs and on street corners also known as buskin.   Sidewalk Singer is a film that is so true to the life of a Christian. Every true Christian suffers persecution in some way, as the bible states in so many places of the New Testament. Watching Kris Kivi character, in this movie brought to reality, a reminder of my own Christian walk.  Kris lost his family due to a traffic accident, he is a practicing Christian before the tragedy and remains so after, but life events sometime leave a stain on the soul.  In the time of Jesus problems in a persons life were looked on as God punishing our sins, and sometime that may have been the case, even though we have a loving God, sins never go unpunished unless there covered by the blood of Jesus.  God hasn’t finished with Kris he is a good example of a real Christian his life style proves this. What church is h...

Start of The Church Pour out a double measure Lord is my prayer for today! I noticed there was an extended length of ‘Thunder and Lighting’ yesterday in Wales, early Saturday morning about 5 am. Could this be a sign that God is ready to release the promised, former and latter rain! Time will tell. I have heard a lot of good news from Christian ministers, that people are starting to be drawn into churches this year; something has started to stir people. Pentecost the day the New Testament church started, I’m not talking about the denomination ‘Pentecost’ with the evidence of tongue talking! No I am talking about Pentecost with the Power to witness of Jesus as the Messiah!             Acts 1:8 A lot can be said about what Jesus intended His church (body) to be like; but too many self-appointed  Apostles, Prophets, Evangelist, Pastors and Teachers are running things (the church).    Ephesians 4:8 If Jesus was walking ...

When Your Numbers Up!  My Auntie went home to heaven on 8 May 2014 my sons birthday. Death is always a sad event for people who are on earth but really its a cause to celebrate for Christians. You might say this is a bad statement to make; Paul the apostle said in Philippians 1:23 that he would rather leave this earth and be with Christ! This explains the befits of living a Christian life. Many people are saying that, they are in so much pain in this world that they want to die so they can have peace. The only peace I believe i n is in Heaven with Jesus Christ. So be careful when you take another life! There are so many perversions of the bible that people are saying by making biblical doctrine and calling it a revelation from God. The sad thing is that people believe junk that is not even in the bible. If we did what Jesus said to consume the Word of God we would have a better understanding of what the Spirit of god is saying to us! Why is there such a big divis...

A lesson from Heaven One of the most important lessons ever taught to me was when Jesus showed me that in the spirit; This worlds time does not work on a 24 hour rotation! God is outside of time. This is why we have the book of Revelation, which speaks about price futuristic events, such as the mark of the beast (no one will be able to buy or sell without the mark) the Anti-Christ along with the end of this world, there is no other historical document, that gives us such precise predictions, as the last book of the New Testament. Prophecy cannot be denied!  The Jews believe a Messiah was going to be born, we Christians know that Jesus, was the one the promised Messiah the Old Testament talked about. Jesus is coming again. Even Muslims believe Jesus is coming again it is mentioned in the Quran (now that’s a strange thing). The bible mentions  a coming anti-Christ we have seen many of them 1 John 2:18 but there is going to be a specific anti- Christ ...

Who Was Jesus Really Talking To  Social Media has gripped the nation; We can all say what we like! Everyone has a right to do that, but is it the right thing to do? What is the difference between what I am saying, and accrediting it to God? Is God really saying what I am saying, or am I speaking what I am thinking! Do I have the right to offend you? If Jesus visited us today what would he say? I'm disappointed with the lack of biblical knowledge Christians have. Many people died so we could have the word of God to read for ourselves. What gratitude are we showing to our brothers and sisters who have passed on when we neglect the word of God? People have said to me many times that Jesus only condemned the 'Religious' leaders. My bible states in Matthew 19:13-16, Jesus said to the rich young leader "you lack one thing sell all you have and follow me”. If you read it in context you will find that the man Jesus was addressing was a man who walked ...

God Is Still Speaking Some people wonder why I'm always talking about revival, so today I will let you know the reason. In 1992 God showed me The Millennium Stadium Cardiff South Wales and he said to me the meeting Katherine Kuhlman  talked about, where he heals everyone I will see before he comes back. In 2006 God started ministering to me about revival, and then I experienced for the second time since I got saved a visitation, Only this time it was so intense God stepped down without a shadow of a doubt I mention it in this video. The Spirit of  God move strongly at the end of this 32 min vid. Then in 2007 I was invited to the USA and saw what can only be described as a revival! What do I mean when I say this? For the first time in my life the difference between 'revival' and 'visitation' was made clear to me. Revival as the bible puts it is about people who were once alive to God think of it as the day you first me Jesus, the fire burns again or the ...

Did Jesus Really Die Friday acknowledged as the day when Jesus, the Son of God was crucified by orders from Pontius Pilot. Although Muslims will say Jesus was never killed, but the truth is, if Jesus never died Christianity is a lie. It might be a strange event to follow a leader who died. I would not be so ignorant to do such a thing.  You see Buddha, Mohamed and Abraham died etc…  The difference is Jesus died then rose from the dead three days later. Now you might say ‘well that happened 2000 years ago’ I would also agree with that statement, without a shadow of contradiction. The bible teaches us that the death of Jesus Christ, was to take our place, Romans 5 explains this fact,  The strange thing is the Quran Surat Maryam 19:33 even stated that Jesus was going to die! What a strange fact to be found in a book which the religious Muslims leaders teach, Jesus never died. They claim, God saved him by taking Jesus to heaven (pity he did not do the same fo...

15 April ! Blood Moon, Titanic & Hillsborough Disaster I was talking to a friend yesterday about The Titanic (Ship) it sank on 15 April 1912 which was a tragedy no one could have imagine. It was said before the titanic left for its maiden voyage that 'God could not sink the Titanic' but it sank and the rest is history. On  15 April 1989 there was the Hillsborough disaster where 96 people lost their lives at a semi final FA Cup Liverpool Vs Nottingham Forest football match. Abraham Lincoln was assassinated also on this date in 1865. I wonder if God is trying to Tell us something! This year 15 April 2014, we have the first  of four NASA predicted blood moons, on Jewish Festivals, Passover and Sukkot. Theses are very rare occurrences on Jewish holidays, it is said that a blood moon on theses specific date mean some sort of Israeli conflict. There are going to be a total of  four blood moons on theses festival dates two this year two and next year. ...

Remember The Old Joke Three men walked in to a bar etc… This film is set in a cafe, or diner as they say in the USA. A senseless murder of a wife and child a leads to a calculated plot of revenge. Situations are not always as they seem, and without a revelation from God we never know what is going on in a person’s life.     As stated, this movie evolves around people visiting a cafe, each one having their own personal issues in life to deal with; One has given up on life, believing that there is nothing left worth living for, another is having marital  problems a young girl is running away and wants a fresh start etc… As the story is unravels episode of their past life are revealed, events are shown, which give an understanding to each characters, and  more importantly, what decisions were taken in their lives, to create their predicaments. Each person in this film believed they were in charge of their own destiny, until they reached this cafe....
