and the Call to the Wall
22 February 2022
We then, as workers together with Him also plead with you
not to receive the grace of God in vain. For He says:
"In an acceptable time I have heard you,
And in the day of salvation I have helped you."
Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
2 Cor 6:1-2
not to receive the grace of God in vain. For He says:
"In an acceptable time I have heard you,
And in the day of salvation I have helped you."
Behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.
2 Cor 6:1-2
Over recent weeks I have been having a repeated vision of the Europe-Russia and Asian continent. As 22 February has been highlighted, am sending this word and vision to you. In the vision, Western Europe was light but cloudy and to the east, it was very dark. In between the two zones was a grey zone dividing the light and the dark. Then I saw a plumbline drop from heaven, landing in the grey zone. When it hit the atmosphere, an explosion occurred sending a large plume into the air. As it expanded and began to settle, small twinkling lights began to appear notably in the eastern dark zone.
In asking the Lord about it, I keep hearing “You’re further along than you think.” What does that mean? I believe it pertains to the end-time narrative as it relates to the times today.
How then shall we pray? In seeking the Lord, I kept hearing that our prayers for delay are shifting now to prepare the way. Get ready! The harvest is nigh. Are we really ready for the harvest? How stuck are we in our old ways of doing and thinking? Yes, we can pray for God to delay enemy schemes to withhold the harvest, but, even more so, to now herald the "Call to the Wall." It is not time to hold back, but rather to rise and build. As Nehemiah articulates well, Those who built on the wall, and those who carried burdens, loaded themselves so that with one hand they worked at construction, and with the other held a weapon (Nehemiah 4:17). The call to "Watch and Pray" is vital for the times today.
Preparing the way:
Like Esther, God is calling us out of old mindsets, ways of doing things, into the promises and purposes for us individually and corporately for the future. It requires a shift. We cannot go into a new season carrying the baggage of the old. God is now calling us out of our comfort zones to activate and engage, like Esther who responded to the call, “For such a time as this.” As you step out, in this prophetic window, expect the following in faith:
In seeking the Lord further on the topic of how to make ourselves ready, God is highlighting key biblical markers that can “Hasten the day.”
Interestingly, Romans 10:14-18 recites Isaiah 52:7 declaring “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace. Who brings glad tidings of good things.” These words herald in the watchmen of Isaiah 52:8! The verses connect these two end-time markers: the call of the watchmen, and the gospel to all the nations.
May this be a time and season of new expressions of faith and favor in your lives. For those on the wall building, be encouraged, we are in a clarion time to "Watch and Pray." For those not yet on the wall, we invite you to join in closing the gaps in the wall from your local expressions to the global connections. As we do so, we very well may be hastening the day!
Love has been perfected among us in this; that we may have boldness in the day of judgment; because as He is, so are we in this world (1 John 4:17).
Be strong and of good courage,

In asking the Lord about it, I keep hearing “You’re further along than you think.” What does that mean? I believe it pertains to the end-time narrative as it relates to the times today.

Like Esther, God is calling us out of old mindsets, ways of doing things, into the promises and purposes for us individually and corporately for the future. It requires a shift. We cannot go into a new season carrying the baggage of the old. God is now calling us out of our comfort zones to activate and engage, like Esther who responded to the call, “For such a time as this.” As you step out, in this prophetic window, expect the following in faith:
- Divine favor that will break down barriers of resistance to God’s plans and purposes.
- Esther 5:2 So it was, when the king saw Queen Esther standing in the court, that she found favor in his sight, and the king held out to Esther the golden scepter that was in his hand. Then Esther went near and touched the top of the scepter.
- Release of wisdom: God is releasing wisdom and strategy for handling the obstructions of the enemy that have kept us separated from one another and God (like how Esther handled Haman in the book of Esther)
- Esther 5:8 If I have found favor in the sight of the king, and if it pleases the king to grant my petition and fulfill my request, then let the king and Haman come to the banquet which I will prepare for them, and tomorrow I will do as the king has said.
- James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.
- New expressions of the Holy Spirit moving in power through acts of faith and God’s supernatural answers. God is asking us to put our foot in the Jordan, into unknown territories only to see the waters part.
- Isaiah 22:22 The key of the house of David I will lay on his shoulder; so he shall open, and no one shall shut, and he shall shut and no one open
- Doors of reconciliation to open. God is restoring ancient paths as people and people groups find reconciliation and healing in Jesus and His Word.
- Revelation 22:2 In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
- New expressions of the church as an ekklesia will rise. Much of the move towards health and wholeness in the body of Christ has to do with a resurgence of generational blessing and family reconciliation and strength. New expressions and ministries will rise as people re-prioritize the need for generational integrity and blessing.
- Hosea 2:22. The earth shall answer with grain, with new wine, and with oil.
- Malachi 4:5-6 Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,
And the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.
In seeking the Lord further on the topic of how to make ourselves ready, God is highlighting key biblical markers that can “Hasten the day.”
- Gospel to reach all tribes and tongues. The last strongholds of the end-time harvest loom. It will require engagement with prayer to breakthrough spiritual strongholds that have kept the harvest back. The release of God’s Spirit and revival will not come without resistance. As persecution and resistance rises, so will new wisdom and strength in the Lord for those on the frontline. We are not to fear.
- 1 John 4:18 Perfect love casts out fear.
- Matthew 24:13-14 But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come (also Romans 10:14-18).
- The Watch of the Lord to be established across the nations. Key to the end-time revival is the resurgence and revelation of the watchman’s role in God’s Kingdom. The “Shamar” call of watchmen is associated with God’s covenant throughout scriptures (ex. Gen 2:15, 17:9-10, Exodus 13:10). They will be key to the end-time revival, fullness of the Gentile Church and destiny of nations and ultimately Israel.
- Genesis 17:9-10 As for you, you shall keep My covenant, you and your descendants after you throughout their generations. This is My covenant which you shall keep, between Me and you and your descendants after you.
- Isaiah 52:8 Your watchmen shall lift up their voices, with their voices they shall sing together; for they shall see eye to eye when the Lord brings back Zion.
Interestingly, Romans 10:14-18 recites Isaiah 52:7 declaring “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace. Who brings glad tidings of good things.” These words herald in the watchmen of Isaiah 52:8! The verses connect these two end-time markers: the call of the watchmen, and the gospel to all the nations.
