More about The Olive Press

More about The Olive Press 

08/21/2021

I saw  what I thought to be an olive, being pressed and squeezed in between two hands…gently at first, then more and more intensely until I saw oil begin to come from the olive. I knew this was the Church.

Still more and more the olive was squeezed, almost to breaking point… And people began to cry out to the Lord…but these cries were different - cries like I had never heard before…these were cries that were coming up from a place of pressure.

Exodus 3:7-8



It was from this place of weakness and brokenness that I saw the anointing oil was now flowing freely and unhindered from the Body of Christ…and it was also from this Place that the Bride of Christ began to emerge. The Place where we were, had now become a place of purity and holiness…an aroma of Life in the midst of the stench of death. 

And The Lord gave me this scripture - 

“We are hard pressed on every side,but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.” 2 Corinthians 4:8-12

It is better that America goes through the olive press now (2Cor.4:8-9), rather then the wine press later (Revelation 14:19). Better to be pressed like an olive, than crushed like a grape (Matt 21:44).                 (Except from O2/02/2022)

Can we not see the Lord’s mercy in this?


What will this look like?

02/20/2022. I only saw a fraction…and only caught a glimpse: It was just after Church on the Lord’s Day: I was looking at the massively long lines of cars, waiting to get in at one of the massive number of restaurants in Bowling Green. Suddenly- and for just a second - I saw something very different. The lines of cars disappeared and were replaced by lines of people; these were no longer waiting to get a table in their favorite restaurant…they were waiting to get basic foodstuffs to live!  


I thought about John ch.6.(Feeding 5000): The great and unorthodox Feast of Tabernacles taking place on the hillside…the people that Emmanuel fed - that he “tabernacled with”…and yet they failed to make the connection with Deuteronomy 8:1-4

They did not recognize the Manna from Heaven  because their  bellies were full of the substance of the earth. 

It is the same with the western nations. We will not truly recognize or know the fullness of the Lord, until the earthly things that, (even we Christians), clamor for, are for a season, brought down                                 


02/10/2022

“I will for a season, bring down the “American way”, so that the people can recognize MY WAY. “

Is there another way for this nation? I honestly don’t believe so. Every high and lofty thing must come down. The original Foundation Stone of the fear of the Lord (Proverbs 9:19) must be brought up from the ground if people are to experience the true unveiling of the Lord Jesus Christ.

The Final Reformation Volume III Ch.2 The Beautiful Remnant of America - Part 2

    The Beautiful Remnant of America Part II  So they shall fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun; for he will come like a rushing stream, which the wind of the Lord drives.   Isaiah 59:19 Before continuing, please ensure that you have first read Chapter 1 ~ The Olive Press   i ~ The “Hidden” Remnant   “What is a tree without its roots? Roots expand underground in the darkness - the hidden place that the tree may stand firmly grounded through the storm. This expansion does not come without faith, time, patience and endurance, and goes entirely un-noticed and un-acclaimed,  because it takes place underground . And yet we know that this expansion is essential to the life and health of the tree.  So it is for the Church in this hour… “What is a house without its foundations?  A house built quickly- on sand  - will not stand - but the one who patiently and deliberately builds his ...

The Final Reformation Vol.3, Ch.7 ~ The Strength of a Motley Crew

Forever United ~ A Kingdom Under God Written November 21, 2022 For every walled garden; for every climbing rose: for the fragrance of every wild flower - in every wild meadow…for every brook and stream, every winding, leafy lane…every rolling hill; every patchwork of field and hedgerow. For the stone-built church that still points upwards, because Your Word is etched down deep into its foundations: For the stone cottage and the corner shop; for the sound of the waves and the smell of the sea. For everything that is England , that reminds us of everything that is still good ( Luke 18:19 )…everything that is of you (James1:17) For the glory of your coming redemption, upon all of these things:  For the multitudes of people who you have shown me, WILL enter in to Your Kingdom.  For the changing face of Great Britain - from one of Anglo-Saxon Celt ,  to the most beautiful array of colour and race ever seen..for the multitude of culture and religion that YOU have brought to th...

The Final Reformation Vol.3, Ch.8 ~ The Love of a Motley Crew

~From now on, whenever I write “the clock was ticking” or words along that line, I am referring to the winding down of the time of the Gentiles spoken of by Paul in Romans 11:25 - and the lead up to “ Jacob ’s trouble”, spoken of in Jeremiah 30:7 (which I believe to be the (7) or 3 1/2 years of great tribulation) *With regards to the differing views on eschatology, I can only write what I saw, enforcing it, as best I can, with the Word of God. You the reader, may or may not agree.* ~~~ {In 1607, landed at Cape Henry, Virginia and surrounded by a motley crew of sailors, ex-criminals and prospectors, the Rev. Robert Hunt kneels under a seven foot cross, brought with him from England and prays the following: “Father, we come to you in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ our Savior to dedicate this land to the glory of God…Father in Heaven, we consecrate this Cross.   We consecrate ourselves to the Great Commission , making disciples of all the people of this new land.   We consec...
