UK Revival Prophecy:

Smith Wigglesworth 1947

Smith Wigglesworth (1859-1947), who is known as the apostle of faith, moved in mighty signs and wonders and even raised people from the dead! Shortly before he passed into glory he prophesied, “During the next few decades there will be two distinct moves of the Holy Spirit across the church in Great Britain. The first move will affect every church that is open to receive it, and will be characterised by the restoration of the baptism and gifts of the Holy Spirit. The second move of the Holy Spirit will result in people leaving historic churches and planting new churches.

In the duration of each of these moves, the people who are involved will say, ‘This is a great revival.’ But the Lord says, ‘No, neither is this the great revival but both are steps towards it.’ When the new church phase is on the wane, there will be evidence in the churches of something that has not been seen before: a coming together of those with an emphasis on the word and those with an emphasis on the Spirit.

When the word and the Spirit come together, there will be the biggest move of the Holy Spirit that the nations, and indeed, the world have ever seen. It will mark the beginning of a revival that will eclipse anything that has been witnessed within these shores, even the Wesleyan and Welsh revivals of former years. The outpouring of God’s Spirit will flow over from the United Kingdom to mainland Europe, and from there, will begin a missionary move to the ends of the earth.” UK Revival Home

Jonathan writes:-

We should look to events where the new meets the old. The marks of the beginning of this revival that Smith Wigglesworth proiphesied is when there are both the old church and the new church together in a obedience and love of the word of God with an openness to move in the power of the Holy Spirit. The Yorkshire Conference on August 15th might be just one such event.

New Wine also might be another. I wonder too if the Bawtry gathering might be another such event. I expect a series of different manifestations all of which lead to the revival in our land which spills out into other nations of the earth. It is gtreater than Wesley and Welsh revivals because its effect on church and their communities will be greater all over the land and from there spread by contagious heat and light to places of darkness and brokenness where nations can be revived with Jesus central to its life.
