Fiji Now...

Prophecy for Fiji!
PROPHECY BY
STEVE PENNY AT CENTRAL CHRISTIAN CENTRE, Nausori, Fiji - Monday,3 November,1997
"This
nation shall experience a cloud of the glory of God, the anointing coming down
upon this nation like a thick
cloud filled with rain, filled with great potential and it will come
down and it will blanket all of the islands like a cloud and it won't come and
just wash across and go, but it will settle and it will continue to fall...the rain of God's presence
will fall on this nation in a powerful way. And the reviving of the
Spirit…literally within five years, this nation will be awash with a great Revival.
One side to another, this nation will literally be under the blanket of a move
of the Spirit of God like you've never seen before. Just about every
denomination will be touched...only those that are very, very resistant will
hold out against it, but whole denominations will be swept into this move of
the Spirit. There'll be unprecedented unity amongst the church together in
Fiji. There will literally be a wonder to people of other nations. You will
have many people visit your islands, not because of the beauty, not to be a
tourist, but because of the presence of God resting on the islands. It won't be
one little spot here or there, but it will be like a blanket that sits over the
nation and the Spirit of God will move back and forwards. Sometimes, it'll be
so intense in another island and another city and then it'll move and come and
sweep here and then it's like it'll move around and the Spirit of God will
literally be like waves across the island back and forth around the island, but
together you'll be under the blanket of God's favour and blessing. But a number of things will happen
DURING that time.
One will be
that a man of sedition, a
man of scheming will rise up in your political arena and he will come quickly
into prominence. Before you know it, he'll have a position of influence
in the nation, but he'll be a man of sedition and he will bring conflicts. There will be a time when you
have civil unrest on your streets and there won't be a massive across the
nation, but there will be civil unrest in areas of this nation and there will
be even some bloodshed. This man will rise very quickly, but because of
the anointing of the Spirit blanketing the island and the church being in
revival, the church will rise up and call and sound an alarm. When they see
this happen, this man who begins to cause unrest in the streets, the church
will literally flock together in huge prayer concerts, great prayer gatherings
and will break the power of that thing. Where in the natural, the papers will
be predicting doom and gloom, they will break the power of that thing and bring
it to nought and the revival will continue on. In fact, because of that, many
people will turn to the Lord in that hour, will come to the Lord…great move of
the Spirit. You'll know these things are happening because both in the natural,
God will show you things and in the Spirit, you'll be able to recognise them.
Within maybe
2-3 years, just in the next few years, one of your sporting teams, I don't know which one, but
one of your sporting teams will gain great prominence. They will win a great
event beyond what they were expected to win and they'll come back to Fiji and
there'll be great celebrations and they'll be national heroes.
You, the church, watch! When
that happens, God's telling you that as a sign, because at the same time as
that happens and I saw this vision of the nation celebrating this great victory
and it was almost like in the
middle of their celebrations, something happened in the nation and the joy
turned to mourning. The Lord didn't show me what that was, but it's like
there was a disaster or something happened and the laughter just stopped in
mid-sentence and they began to mourn. But out of that turn-around, there would
be rising, it's like there would rise up a cry unto God from the nation. Even
those outside the church will cry. They will be praying together in
public,"God, help us!" Out of that will come a great release even
again, of people being led to the Lord, finding the Lord. There's a tremendous
awakening starting to happen amongst the people of this nation, out of
religion, out of Hinduism, out of culture, an awakening concerning the things
of the Spirit of God. You watch that continue in the next few years in this
nation.
Your economy will continue to
increase over the next few years and there'll be a sense of, well,"This is
wonderful!" and then, there'll come a crash and your dollar, I
literally saw your dollar will plummet. And again, these things in the natural,
God turns them around and uses them to bring favour to the church and the
government will literally turn to the church, not those churches that are
playing games, but those that are full of the Holy Spirit, who've shown they
love their nation. The government will turn to the church and say,"We want
you to take over this area of ministry to the broken. We want you (and the
government will begin to favour churches) to minister to the homeless, to the
children, to those that are broken." Churches will be raised up who will
have great strength to be able to minister to the broken and the hurting in the
nation.
God is going
to raise up across this nation, many men and women that will go out from this
nation. The fire of God will be upon them and they will literally be sent forth
from this place. You will have people that go to nations that in the past, have
sent missionaries here. You will send missionaries to these nations. I
literally saw, out of Fiji, a great like a volcano erupt and many fiery arrows,
people alive with the Spirit of God literally being translated, transported,
transferred, removed from this place and set in another place and God would
cause them there to take the anointing and the fire of God that's on them and
begin to burn in other places. Some of you already have a burden for other
nations. Listen, the time is here to set your sails towards those places. God
wants to raise up men in this place in the next few years that have learned how
to live under the cloud of His presence, so that when you go, the cloud will go
with you and places where they have literally had a little rain of the Spirit,
just little showers, you will take the cloud that rests on this nation and you
will take the cloud and it'll rest on that place also and it shall continue to
rain and spread across the nations.
I saw planes
flying, criss-crossing across the islands. The airlines are going to have to
put on more flights because of the revival. People are going to want to go from
town to city to city, town to town where God's moving and they will come in
masse to a place and celebrate and then they'll go somewhere else. There'll be
more flights coming in. God will bring ministers in that you haven't even
invited, but the Spirit of God will put it upon their heart,"I must go to
Fiji! I must be a part of what's happening there. I must sow the gifting that
God's given me into that place."
I don't
think I've prophesied over a nation quite as significantly concerning a
revival, as I am even here today for Fiji. Wherever I go, I prophesy this
revival and blessings in many nations, but I feel a stirring about Fiji. I feel
like God is saying,"There is something significant that is going to take
place in those islands, for you are prepared to abandon that which has been,
for that which is coming. You are prepared to embrace the move of the Spirit
with abandonment that not many other places are." The Lord says,"I am going to cause a people
that will rise up that literally shake off the shackles of their past, of their
upbringing, of their culture and begin to dance with joy and celebrate the Kingdom
of God, manifest in their midst, with an incredible liberty and freedom."
You're going to have meetings that go all night (isn't that fantastic!),
meetings that go all night as the Spirit of God comes upon. There'll be some
meetings where you'll just literally sit under the power of God for hours.
Nobody does anything, but the glory of God rests upon the place. Just a few
hours later, a song will begin and that will go for hours, singing and worship
and the Spirit of God's going to completely dominate the church scene in this
nation. Dominate…that's the best word. The Spirit of God's going to come and
dominate the spiritual arena of this nation.
There are some leaders that are presently in
leadership in this nation. You will wake up one morning in the next couple of
years and they'll be gone...just gone, just no longer in key leadership because
they have not allowed the Spirit of God to come.
God IS NOT
INTO BOWING TO ANYBODY. When God marks out a nation, there are times when the
river begins to run and goes around the rocks, but as it gains strength, it
sweeps all before. Some of those rocks are monuments to man's best efforts and
as the Spirit of God has begun to run, it has gone around. But you watch! In
the next couple of years as the tide of the Spirit gains momentum, it will
literally sweep all before. Some of those things that have been strong
monuments will literally...you'll
wake up one morning and they won't be there because God will have decided to
bring His agenda into focus in that place.
I see God
taking off the robes that you've worn of ministry of yesterday of a certain
rank. I see God taking it off and putting on a robe, a garment of leadership of
a different rank. God wants to promote, even here, many of you. He wants to
promote you to a new level, another rank this season. When the Spirit of God
breathes afresh in a nation, it awakens new heroes, new leaders. God often
doesn't use yesterday's leaders, yesterday's heroes. He looks for people that
want to be promoted to carry a greater anointing for this hour. One of my
greatest prayers in this hour is,"Father, please use me to carry your
anointing." I don't presume on anything that I had yesterday. Oh, I did
for a while. I said,"God,I've got a good church. I've grown up in this
stuff. I know it all." God said,"No,no. I don't count on those things
in the day of revival. I count on those whose hearts are hungry for more."
I began to pray,"God, please consider me worthy to carry this
revival." God said,"If you'll let go of everything else and take off
the robes of yesterday's achievements, I can entrust you with greater things,
yet, by My Spirit."
Jehovah God ...thank you for the message. HALLELUJAH.
