Here he tells Christian Today why Pentecost is so important to him, and how he feels God’s Spirit is moving today.
CT: You must be pretty excited that God is using you in worship on so many occasions this Pentecost weekend.
NR: Pentecost, it’s not something we can bypass. If you are Christian and you proclaim Christ, Pentecost means something to you. Pentecost is the initiation of many of the spreading of the faith that happened in different parts of the world so I’m totally excited by being a part of that. It’s the fruit of the disciples going out from Jerusalem and speaking in different languages.
There is a real prophetic movement of God going on today. The disciples were in the upper room waiting for a prophetic move of God. They were all as one. For me this is the church coming together as one and then there is an incredible move of God.
The aftermath is that they go out into Jerusalem and they are speaking different languages. The people thought they were mad and a lot of people will think we are mad today to put on an event like this. Why are these Christians coming out to do all this stuff? But as the languages were spoken people realised that they were not drunk, that they were supernaturally connecting with the people.
Through the arts, through music, through dance, poetry, street artists, God is saying, ‘You will speak to people because My Spirit is there.’ It is a supernatural thing going on this weekend. In every corner of London there are Christians doing their thing. And for some it’s unsuspecting cos they’re just going to have a good time and do their stuff. But for others God is about to move supernaturally across London. And not just London. If He speaks about London, He speaks about the UK, and if He speaks about the UK, He speaks about Europe, and I am totally excited about this incredible move.
