There is the sense of a stirring of great missionary fervour on the horizon.
Individuals are being stirred to uproot and move to strategic places around the country, and even around the world. This started in earnest about three years ago.
Are you feeling it?
Also, there is a stirring of a great Gospel mission in the North. There is a movement there, but more people are needed on the ground to work it and pray it through. Indigenous northerners have been ploughing for years and decades, but now there will be an acceleration and demonstration, as people move in from all over the world, who have heard the call.
God is calling people and missions to GO North!
See:
Some will hear the bidding to uproot, rise and move. It will be messy sometimes. Lives and lifestyles may have to change. Relationships and careers may need to change.
What is required is drastic change to accommodate what the Lord is doing. The 'heavenly vision' is critical and may not consider personal convenience or comfort, nor religious protocols, cultures and traditions.
There is much activity in the South, there is a need for a parallel spiritual fervour and rigour in the North. Even more so. The harvest is ripe.
Not sure what part you play?
We are all called to pray.
We are to pray for the North especially, but also for our British Isles wholly, and feel and carry God's heart and passion for it
– For ALL people lost, least and last.
The days of Missionary Fervour are here AGAIN!
It is a 'this is that' moment in history. (Acts 2:16) Old ministers known and unknown, past and present have spoken about these days.
Smith Wigglesworth in 1947 was one of the first to 'see' it in the future and tell his protege Dr Lester Sumrall and others. Also, Dr R T Kendall has spent the last 10 years or so sharing with great urgency and passion in his talks at Kensington Temple, London, that there is coming a Great Awakening. Also, someone I have come to respect very much for his tenacious belief that 'a move of revival was coming' is long-time Lay Pastor/Connect Group Leader at the home of Alpha, Holy Trinity Brompton, London, Elder David Hurst - he actually lives for revival.
We owe it to these 'Simeons and Annas' who have over years and decades seen, prayed and proclaimed the hope that God will move again in power in our generation to rescue the world from its present suffering. We owe it to them to rise up and seize this moment.
That is why hearts are set on going to the Northern highlands and lowlands.
Some are already on the move as technology has brought the world together, and communications, broadcasting media, virtual gatherings, online streaming and remote working are now a global reality opening up expansive opportunities.
Currently, numerous prayer streams have strung up and people are gathering online and in person to pray daily, weekly, monthly and sometimes as often as possible, and dreams and visions have become unusually prevalent and widespread as people are being stirred and led to do incredible things.
I believe it's vitally important that individuals find where they belong and move quickly into that place.
Time is of the essence. There is an urgency.
We have been in a place of preparation and pruning. But that time has come to an end.
There is now much work to be done - in obedience to and in partnership with the Holy Spirit - praying, fasting, walking, talking, writing, going, gathering, proclaiming, demonstrating, transforming - whatever is required of us to work with Jesus to see His Passion for the Harvest of the nations to be gathered in - In our generation.
If not you and I, Who? If not now, When?
So, let’s use EVERY Possible Platform to disseminate The Ultimate Good News!
Let’s go wherever God sends us.

It's a proven fact that the praying presence of believers changes atmospheres.
Let’s bring the Kingdom into every community - every believer, young and old, male and female - a priest and a kingdom. The Kingdom is Jesus Christ ruling and reigning in individual and congregational hearts and minds, and not necessarily Protestant, Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian or Pentecostal, nor based on culture, tradition or the religious history of a region.
LET'S GO: Let's Follow the Morning Star - North!
Let’s Obey The Great Commission and take the Gospel of the Kingdom to the ends of the earth.
The most Northern part of the British Isles is Scotland.
Christianity in Scotland is currently about 38%.
Since 2016, humanists have conducted more weddings in Scotland each year than either the Catholic Church, Church of Scotland, or any other religion and by 2022 the number of humanist marriages outnumbered all religious ceremonies combined.
That's why The Call to Go is critical.
Let’s take Shine Your Light to the streets this Christmas.
Let’s take The Alpha Course UK to every Community/Christian Centre in Scotland, Wales, Ireland, England and to the ends of the earth.
Global, national, regional, community and marketplace Missions are now trending…
Let’s arm ourselves with the insight, knowledge and wisdom required for the task of the Great Commission In Our Generation - Missions in 2024
God is up to something!
Let's GO.
