A Word through Johnny Enlow:
“My righteousness is near, My
salvation has gone forth, And my arms will judge the peoples; THE ISLANDS WILL
WAIT UPON ME and on my arm they will trust.” Is.51: 5
“Behold the nations are as a drop in the bucket, And are counted as the small
dust on the scales; Look HE LIFTS UP THE ISLANDS as a very little thing.”
Is.40: 15
The veil is coming off the
“I” lands!
The “I” lands will become the I AM lands
as God removes the veil from the “I’s”(eyes) and they will begin to see that
which the prince of this world had formerly blinded them to.
There are 3 categories of “I” lands:
The Lord is clearly moving and doing a wondrous thing among all the nations.
However, I believe that there is a particularly intense intervention of God
that has already begun and will greatly intensify among the “I” lands.
First the Lord is speaking, of course, to the ISLANDS as in the scriptures
above. I believe that there are repentance and revival winds blowing on the
literal islands of the world. All God’s people who live on islands should step
into greater faith and boldness and believe the things that the Lord is
showing them for their ISLANDS.
The second category of “I” lands are the nations of the world that are under
ISLAM. I hear the Lord saying, “The evil powers that are behind Islam will I
SLAM”. There are one billion souls held in bondage by the principalities
behind Islam. The Lord of Hosts has begun a major military operation to
shatter the powers of darkness that enslave His people. He really will SLAM
the evil principality behind Islam. In all the Islamic lands the Lord is
removing the veil that His people may begin to see that which they could not
formerly see. This year multiple thousands will come to know Jesus, as their
eyes are opened to see Him in His Beauty.
The third category of “I” lands are the nations of the world that
begin with the letter “I”. There are 9 of these “I” LANDS. Israel, Indonesia,
Iraq, Iran, Ireland, Iceland, Ivory Coast, India and Italy. Some of these 9
are even in 2 or 3 of the “I” land categories and I believe that these are
particularly “hot” nations. Indonesia, for example, is an ISLAND, is also
ISLAMIC, as well as being a nation that begins with the letter “I”. It will be
very “hot” in the spirit in Indonesia in 2003. I will go through these 9
nations and give some snapshots that I believe the Lord is showing me.
ISRAEL: All Eyes Are On Jacob
A natural phenomenon has taken place in very recent years. Suddenly out of
‘nowhere’ the name “Jacob” has become the most popular name for newborn baby
boys in this country. There is not a famous actor, athlete or other ‘star’
that has spurred this attention to the name “Jacob”. I believe it is evidence
of creation itself understanding what is close to God’s heart.
This year more of the ‘blinding veil’ will be removed from Jews than has ever
happened in history. As Christians continue to love, support and pray for
Israel, God is melting their heart resistance to Jesus. The “prodigal son” is
really being conditioned to turn to Jesus. ‘Secular mindedness’ has dominated
in Israel, but this year there will be a great Spiritual Awakening in Israel.
Eventually this path will lead to Jesus as all other paths quickly dead end in
emptiness and even despair. All spiritual paths that are not Jesus Himself
will not be able to quench the great fear that will increasingly come upon
Jews. Jesus will become more and more attractive to His own who rejected Him.
Because Israel is the “apple of His eye (I)” a most glorious unfolding will
begin to take place in that land. Also because Satan knows of God’s love for
Israel, he will stir great hatred and anger towards it as we have already
seen. I believe that soon Israel will strike back so severely on one (or more)
of their enemies that it will receive world wide ‘scathing’ over what they
did. This strike back will be considered very excessive and it will be used by
the enemy to stir much greater worldwide hatred for Israel. May we as a
country not join in the anti-Israel spirit, as it will not bode well for us if
we do. Israel is not “sanctioned” by God to kill and destroy whom they wish.
However, they are “sanctioned” by Him to perform necessary measures of
self-defense. There will be a greater and greater satanically induced ‘trend’
to not grant Israel the right of adequate self-defense. The Bible has some
pretty clear prophecies on what will happen to those nations who “cross the
line” as it regards to Israel.
INDONESIA: The ‘Hottest’ Land on the Earth
Indonesia is the ‘front lines’ of much of what is going on in the spirit. It
is the most populous Islamic nation in the world and the 5th most populous
overall. Indonesia is made up of thousands of islands with over 100,000,000
who live on the main island. Even in the natural it is a place of multiple
volcanoes, which also applies in the spirit. As an Islamic nation it has the
most Christians, and there are entire areas that are virtually all Christian.
It is a place of increasing confrontation between Islam and Christianity as
the relentlessness of the Kingdom of God continues to advance. I believe that
the Lord has shown me that some of the ‘purest’ Christianity is developing in
parts of Indonesia. There will be places where believers both operate under
the power of His resurrection and are also very much joined in the fellowship
of His sufferings (see Phillip.3: 10).
A tremendous harvest is coming!
I believe that the Lord has shown me that one day more than 80% of Indonesia
will be made up of those that profess that salvation is through Jesus Christ.
There are spiritual volcanoes that the Lord is releasing through these islands
as His Arm is activated towards those who put their hope in Him. Truly many
entire islands will be ablaze with the fire of God and they will continue to
release ‘volcanic explosions’ even to the most ‘imbedded’ Muslim, Hindu or
Buddhist islands. Lift up your heads, oh Indonesia, for the King of Glory is
coming to you!
IRAQ: Babylon the Great is Fallen!
This is of course a very active ‘hot spot’ of the world right now. Saddam
Hussein has been rebuilding ancient Babylon. Though the Babylon of Revelation
represents much more then what Saddam is doing, he has definitely been
stepping into the pride of that spirit and will be judged even as a precursor
judgment of what awaits the final “Babylon”.
The “Prince of Persia” will be crushed!
The satanic principality behind Islam has its seat between Iraq and Iran. It
is probably the “prince of Persia” that Daniel dealt with and that required
the intervention of Michael the archangel. This principality is responsible
for enslaving over one billion souls and the Lord of Hosts is coming to set
the captives free. He and His mighty angels will crush this power of darkness
and the veil of darkness will be removed and millions and millions will one
day see and know Jesus as Lord and Savior. 9/11 was primarily about this
principality striking back at the country from whence targeted prayers were
coming. This of course has led to an ever-increasing amount of targeted
prayers that are at this moment eroding the blinding power of this
principality. We will see a tremendous increase of rage from this principality
as it is facing it’s impending demise. The rage will be a sign not of it’s
strengthening but rather of its’ weakening. This evil power will be absolutely
crushed by the Lord and these ‘dark’ “I” Lands will all see.
IRAN: “Flipped” Like a Pancake
There is a hidden movement of grace and glory in Iran that will astound the
world. Beneath the surface of this “axis of evil” is a flow of God that will
‘flip’ this country like a pancake. There is such a bottom to top change
coming that once it reaches the top we will see Iran ‘flip’ almost overnight.
I believe that the Lord is showing me that there already is significant
‘secret embracing’ of Christianity that is taking place among some ruling
elite of Iran. I see this greatly increasing until the point it will no longer
be a ‘secret embracing’ but the secret will be out.
A “Phillip” anointing is released on Iran!
I believe we will hear multiple reports of translations in Iran such as
happened with Phillip in the Scriptures. I believe many of the ‘elite’ in Iran
will hear of the Lord through this way. I see imprisoned pastors still
preaching to their congregations as they are transported in the spirit to
various gatherings. I believe the church in Iran will walk in the spiritual
culture and atmosphere of the early church with angelic interaction and
supernatural encounters being commonplace. The spirit of revelation will be
abundantly upon them and some of the purest form of Christianity will be
produced in this land. This “axis of evil” will release some of the greatest
apostles upon the world. They will not necessarily be known on earth as
apostles but they will be clearly recognized in this way in heaven. Wherever
these apostles walk, evil powers will tremble and shake.
IRELAND: You will become Fireland!
If there is a 2nd apple of God’s eye it is Ireland. This small, insignificant,
overlooked island full of many insecure stereotyped people will break through
from being a Land of Ire to being a Land of Fire. Fear not people of God in
Ireland for you shall not always feel forgotten. God is this year releasing
judgment on the idols of this land. The reconciliation work is almost done and
the Arm of the Lord shall mightily come to rescue those who trust in Him. As a
nation you shall yet again bless the world!
Holy Irish Taverns will open in many places!
The nature of the anointing on Ireland will be outrageous courage and
outrageous joy. God loves the laugh of the Irish. He just wants to be the
Source of this joy. The wrongful pursuit of joy has ironically caused great
emptiness and sorrow in this land. Yet it is the very inheritance of those who
are His sons and daughters. Church, do not yield to the religious spirit that
would weed out the laughter and joy. Soberness is not the proper response to
drunkenness but rather as Paul said “be being filled with the Spirit.” The
Lord will make Holy Irish Taverns to be more popular than the unholy Irish
taverns. As believers partake of this available outrageous joy they will be
filled with outrageous courage and will go all over the world performing
amazing Kingdom exploits.
One Irishman will chase a thousand and two ten thousand!
I see men and women from Ireland going all over the world with very little
more than a smile on their face. They will not need great training or
understanding but God will accompany them with many signs and wonders and they
will be used by God to shame the wise. Many will carry mobile Holy Irish
Taverns and will bring great joy and great courage to brothers and sisters who
are in much distress. Great anointing and authority will be carried in
simplicity and transparency. They will go as David’s mighty men and perform
many great exploits “against all odds”. They will rid entire towns and
villages, of demonic spirits, in almost an overnight fashion. This authority
and anointing will not flow in ‘sophistication’ and the “wise” will surely
miss it. Rejoice Ireland, for this year a major portal of heaven opens over
you!
The Great Divide WILL be Healed!
I saw a vision of men lying down sideways on a great crack across this island.
The appearance of them when looking from high above was that of a zipper
track. I then saw a hand came down and pulled up from one end to the other on
this “zipper” and it connected and covered the crack.
I believe this speaks of a track of reconciliation that is being laid down
over a great divide in Ireland. The Great Divide manifests as a Catholic-
Protestant issue but I believe that the roots are actually something
different. I see that at this time there are just a few zipper ‘teeth’ that
are missing and then we will see the Arm of God intervene in a wondrous way.
ICELAND: A Great Thaw is Coming
I saw a drop of the Sun fall as a teardrop onto this island and begin a
widespread “melting of the ice”. A great spiritual thaw will begin in this
year upon Iceland. This “thaw” is not primarily upon the ‘unbelievers,’ but
upon the so-called “believers”. There is a “form of godliness” in much of
Iceland that is not acceptable to the Lord. It is a powerless, passionless,
prayerless “expression of religion” that is a wineskin that will not survive
the coming outpouring. All true intercessors in and for Iceland know that a
response from heaven is on the way. Hope and rejoicing is coming to Iceland.
IVORY COAST: Arise and Shine- In the Dark
Though this country is presently in turmoil and ‘darkness’ it is the best
of years for the gospel of Jesus to make great gains. Many previously hardened
hearts will be greatly softened this year and it will be a banner year for the
Kingdom of God. Political solutions will come out of an active shining church.
With proper prayers and with fearless ‘shining’ there is real hope for
‘unexplainable’ quick resolutions to the present turbulence. As believers give
themselves to the Lord they will find faith arising in their hearts and they
will see the Salvation of the Lord. This is a season of the Lord’s blessing on
the Peacemakers in the Ivory Coast.
INDIA: Your Idols are in God’s “Cross Hairs”
In much the same way that God took on Egypt’s idols one by one during the days
of Moses, so the Arm of the Lord will begin to execute His Fierce Wrath on the
idols of this country. The “spirit and anointing” of Elijah is released upon
India so that “Baal” may be openly humiliated. The Lord will anoint His
servants to set up public humiliations of false gods. Many will turn to Christ
as the after effect of these demonstrations of Gods’ superior power and might.
Highly flammable oil is falling on you!
I saw a vision of oil dropping from heaven and greatly igniting existing fires
all over India. It looked like oil but it acted like gas. There are some major
beachheads of God being established in India and the Arm of God will really be
activated all over the land. I see God’s tears over India and He will begin to
respond to His own tears over this nation. There are 100’s of millions of
desperate needy souls who have not yet even been legitimately offered the
Living Water. The religious blinding of souls will begin to be cured in many
places and millions will taste and see that the Lord is good. Be prepared
India, for there is a tremendous fast forwarding of God’s purposes over you
this year!
ITALY: A Fire in the Bottom of the ‘Boot’
I see a fire beginning to burn in an obscure place in the bottom of a boot
called Italy. This fire will affect the ‘walk’ of the entire nation.
Passionate worship in the Houses of the Lord will carry an anointing from
heaven to break dark chains and open blind eyes. God will arise and begin to
scatter His enemies.
Corruption and Religion will begin self-inflicted
death!
The major ruling powers of Corruption and Religion will begin to deal
deathblows to each other and to themselves as the Lord begins to stretch forth
His Arm over this nation. Confusion will invade the camp of the enemy and even
as in biblical times a great self-inflicted slaughter will take place.
The blood of many martyrs will come up as a
memorial!
Much of the Lord’s coming intervention in Italy will be His own
response to the blood of some of the early church martyrs. The ‘harvest time’
for that blood will now begin to manifest and what seems impossible with man
will be the very thing that God will do. All the nations of the world are but
a drop in the bucket to the Lord and the “powers’ in Italy are even less than
a drop to Him.
ALL “I” LANDS OF THE EARTH TREMBLE AND REJOICE FOR THE INTERVENING ARM
OF THE LORD SHALL BE EVIDENCED!
