2022 - 2033

An eleven year prayer watch for the spiritual welfare of all nations.


Welcome to

www.prayerwatch33.org

This website is here to encourage believers to pray for the restoration, salvation and healing of all nations through the name of Jesus Christ "The Light of the World".

Our Lord and Saviour is returning soon for His bride, so how well are we prepared, are our lamps trimmed and bright?

Mark 13:33  Take ye heed watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

Mark 13:37  And what I say unto you I say unto all, watch.

Zechariah 8:22  Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the Lord of hosts in Jerusalem and to pray before the Lord.

Latest News & Update

Sunday 22/12/24  I have not updated this section for several months. I think for the foreseeable future I am most likely to use this space for news on improvements to this site and re-direct readers to PW33's Blog for all matters to do with prayer and commentary on church and worldwide events. 


Since September's post we have witnessed many elections and increasing warfare and conflict, I have made some comments at PW33's Blogspot but in no way do I see myself as a news reporter or commentator. Like many across the globe right now I pray for peace, most especially as we Christians celebrate Christmas and Christs coming into this world as "Emmanuel", meaning God is with us. Another name for Christ is "The Prince of Peace", I pray in His name that you and your family will know His presence and peace at this time of Christmas and the coming New Year.


May every blessing be with you.

Sunday 22/09/24  Today is the 2nd anniversary of Prayer Watch 33. Each year the 22nd of September is a special day in which I thank the Lord for the vision He gave me on the last day of a prayer walk that finished in London on the 22nd September 2018, 4 years before the launch of Prayer Watch 33. The vision was for the spiritual healing, restoration and revival of London and the UK, it then developed and expanded further towards an international outreach for all nations through the start of Prayer Watch 33.


The defining years for my work here are from 2022 to 2033, every passing year carries more meaning and revelation as to why The Lord has singled out this period of time. He has shown me so much that I am still waiting to share with the body of Christ. The fact that I haven't released these words from the Lord to date has nothing to do with any delays from myself, rather it is a case that the content is time sensitive and I am bound to release it only when the Lord tells me to. Having said that I can say this coming year is when part of what I have been given will be brought to the fore involving an event that will take part in a major UK city, most likely London or possibly Manchester, Liverpool or Birmingham. This event will introduce a prayer project that I believe the Lord wants to birth here in the UK, that it will be a model that can be replicated throughout every nation globally. It will start on Monday 22nd of September 2025, a year on from today and continue through to Sept 22nd. 2033. 



Friday, 30/08/24  New pages have recently been added to this site including Advocacy and Action and as of today Cultural TraditionsThis latest page has been created in response to the riots here in England following the tragic murder of three young girls attending a summer holiday dance club activity in Southport, Merseyside. Far-right extremists took the opportunity to twist this tragic event to act out their racist hatred towards immigrant groups by starting riots in numerous cities and towns. They wrongly assumed that the attacker at Southport was a Muslim and the Mosque at Southport came under attack as a result of that suspicion. There were so many thugs who didn't care a bit as to who was responsible for the killings, they just wanted an excuse to collectively cause public unrest, violence and damage to public property. The recent change of government with Labour in as the majority party has more than likely added fuel to the anger of the far-right protesters. The reason for this is due to Prime Minister Keir Starmer declaring on his first day in office the scrapping of the controversial Rwanda illegal immigration bill.


The killings and rioting started a month ago and around the same time I had a vision and dream regarding the sharing of experiences between people from many different countries and lands in friendly community gatherings. The name Cultural Traditions kept coming to me repeatedly, was this to be a friendship club that I would be a part of, or was I the one to start this project?


Please join me in discovering more of how this project might advance by visiting PW33's Cultural Traditions page. Thank you.


Wednesday 22/08/24  This month two nations well known for their totalitarian leadership have shown signs of cracking or softening. North Korea is preparing to relax its borders to allow a small controlled flow of tourism from the outside world. Iran earlier this month was predicted by some military experts in the West to launch a full-scale war with Israel. This hasn't happened and at the same time news has been released of a massive decline of Iranians attending Islamic mosques with over 50,000 mosques closing their doors. There are many reports of conversions to Christianity, for more on this story please follow this link:

Sunday 24/03/24  Greetings to everyone. Today is Palm Sunday and the start of Holy Week. May the Lord bless you at this time when Christians reflect on the Lord Jesus' ride into Jerusalem, the suffering He endured on the cross, and the glory of His resurrection. May His touch be upon you this Easter and beyond, believe in His love and saving grace that He freely gives to all who believe in Him.


Thursday 22/02/24 For over one year now I have been building up lists of principal cities and towns in most countries and nations throughout the world. I say most, as no doubt I will have unintentionally missed a few out. By and large this work is now complete or is it? During this last weekend, I came across two countries that I did not recognise by name, searching my lists confirmed that there were no entries for them, should I really update and include them on my list?


The stories behind these two countries have really baffled and amused me as to how they were formed. Perhaps you would like to check them out for yourself - can these seriously be considered as independent countries?

Sunday 31/12/23 With wars escalating both in Gaza and Ukraine, this doesn't seem the best way to see out the year, we certainly must and do pray for peace in 2024.


I have been touched over the last few weeks to hear of an increasing amount of good news concerning 100's of conversions to Christianity in two regions. The story about many young Palestinian men who have seen Jesus appearing in their dreams is wonderful news indeed. The other news is of persecuted Iranian women who are fleeing to neighbouring Armenia, it is here where they are greeted by churches, and many are receiving Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. For more information please follow these links:

Sunday 22/10/23  There's such sadness to see what's happening this month, especially concerning the Israeli/Hamas war after the attack on southern Israel from Hamas on the 7th of October. I will restrict my comments here since many news teams are covering this in far greater detail than I can give myself. Just to say, don't forget we do have a page for Israel with links to many Christian/humanitarian sites that cover the latest news and appeals for all those in Israel who have come under ruthless attack. Scrolling through these links I didn't pick up any reporting on the Palestinian Christian communities living in the Westbank and how they are managing to survive. One church where many were sheltering, came under fire from Israeli forces as reported in this story from the Catholic Herald.


Please join us in Praying for all the innocent on both sides of this conflict. May God's Judgement prevail. 


Friday 22/09/23  Today marks the 1st anniversary of Prayer Watch 33. I am so grateful to the Lord for confirming over, and over again why He gave me this 11 year prayer quest. The dates are so important and the target countdown for 10 years from today holds much significance. The Lord has given me just a glimpse, enough to feed on and to share through these pages but there's much more that only God Himself will reveal in time. The order of both praying and watching defines who we are, prayer warriors but also watchman on the walls.


Monday 26/06/23  A new section has been added to the menu list this month for Prophecies, Visions and Dreams. Some of the content here may be considered controversial but those who submit these given words, whether myself or others, do so in full confidence that they are directly from The Lord. As always, please test all given word in prayer - 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22 “Do not quench the Spirit. Do not treat prophecies with contempt but test them all; hold on to what is good, reject every kind of evil”.


Monday 22/05/23 This current month (May/June) sees the largest update to this site for awhile with new page sections being added to the menu list, these incude pages for Israel, The Persecuted Church and more.

Sunday 23/04/23  This months prayer calendar has now been updated and now includes Japan, Papa New Guinea and the Federated States of Micronesia.

 

Wednesday 05/04/23  This current month (March/April) covers 30 degrees from 180 degrees East to 150 degrees East. From North East Russia to Fiji, New Zealand and East Coast of Australia. This is being posted just before the Easter weekend. To all our readers we hope you have a peaceful, reflective and happy Easter.


Tuesday 17/01/23  The first monthly prayer calendar is now available. To view select Prayer Calendar from the Menu. This month we are starting out on the line of longitude 120 degrees West, passing close to Vancouver, Canada and four key US cities, Seattle, Portland, Sacramento and San Francisco. Ranging out 30 degrees further to the longitude line of 150 degrees West will take us as far as Ancourage in Alaska. 

Friday 23/12/22  To whom ever comes this way at this festive time of year, may you know and receive the blessings of Jesus Christ as we celebrate His birth. Wherever you are in the world it is my sincere hope that you have a real sense of God's presence, Joy and Peace. Happy Christmas and New Year!

Thursday 22/12/22  I am very happy to announce that as of the New Year a new feature will be added to this website. The vision is to pray for all nations throughout the year, the method of doing this will be by the division of the world according to the geographic division of 15 degree segments of longitude. Each month we will cover two 15 degree sectors, 30 degrees in all and after 12 months we will have covered all 360 degrees. All being well this prayer cycle will repeat every year through to 2033.


For the record here's an update on the number of different locations around the world where we have had vistors to this site. Since the start in mid september, we have had visitors from 48 different countries. What I am most encouraged by is that early on the visits were confined to USA and Europe but at present we are looking at even coverage across the globe - from all four corners of the earth! 


Sunday 27/11/22  Right at this moment much of the world is gripped it seems with the tournament of FIFA world cup football at Qatar. 32 nations are participating with immense passion for this much loved sport. It has on reflection made me think how much more wonderful it would be if as many as 32 nations were sold out for Christ with the same level of passion! 


The purpose of this website is to encourage the body of Christ within the church to unceasingly intercede in prayer for all nations, that they come before our Lord in adoration and faith. So if 32 nations are presently competing at Qatar should we not have sufficent faith to go one more and look at least 33 nations for Christ by 2033? I believe that this number should be the bare minimum and in my own mind I am looking at another 20 above that, yes an aim of 53 nations firm in the Lord by 2033 - Why another 20? Well, if that's your question it's a good one. The answer will come out eventually, Sometimes when a word is seeded, there's an ongoing spiritual 'work-out' needed to fully understand the matter! Will gladly share after my time of listening to the Lord.


Thursday 22/9/22  Today is the first day of Prayer Watch 33. The date is significant and I look forward to sharing more in due course. Thank you for visiting.
