Do watch this video of Anton speaking on YouTube showing exactly what was, in preparation, prophetically and strategically shared about The Holy Ghost at the gathering in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. View why he received their rapt attention. The first segment of the video is shown below. A portion of the 2010 prophetic word is cited within the video. TO READ the whole prophecy press this Link.

View the video above to see why a reference is made to Rev: Jean Darnall. This was the lady who taught Anton a lot about the Holy Ghost. She is currently a Pastoral Elder with Pastor Jack Hayford. Pastor Jack was the founding Pastor of The Church On The Way in Van Nuys, California. Jean was one time an Associate Pastor at the world famous Angelus Temple originally founded by Aimee Semple McPherson. We did note that during July 2010 another lady, Rev:Tammy Dunahoo was appointed General Supervisor of this Pentecostal Denomination.

Our Prayer Foundation is based on this premise: is to inter- link the following spiritual truths — a life of being totally aware of the sweet Presence of God the Holy Ghost, study the Word of God diligently and pray in the Holy Spirit, with a ministry of Proclaiming the Kingdom of God in all circumstances and opportunities to save the precious people.
From us, may come forth contemplata tradere: From our meditation, dwelling in the Presence of God “ may we humbly pass on the fruits of meditation and contemplation” that one day, (Please Lord Jesus) we “speak only of Jesus or with Jesus".
1 Corinthians Chapter 6 verse 17 : but he who unites himself with the Lord is one with him in spirit.
The spoken Word of the Lord was forthright and resolute,( Read Below): We need to plant here without any optional caveats the challenging words of A. W. Tozer, “It is doubtful that God canuse anyone greatly until He has hurt him deeply".
In
the year 1978, a Malaysian businessman told and convinced Anton’s parents
not to send him back to London, England to complete his finals. The
businessman was going to meet an Assistant General Manager of a top bank
in Malaysia to secure a permanent banking job for him. Anton also had no
intention of returning back to London. On a Monday morning a few hours
before he was going to meet the banking officer, the businessman
tragically and shockingly collapsed, fell down and very sadly died. This
event triggered Anton to respond to the Word of the Lord urgently and
swiftly. The choice was very clear: either to pursue a glowing and a
promising financial career in Malaysia, please

cross. Obedience (blessings) is far better than disobedience (curse): and
following the cross is far better than being permanently placed in a
coffin. (It is a fearful thing to fall into the
hands of the living God Hebrews 10:31). He returned back to London
without delay and the ministry of PRAYER was birthed. The next year, July
1979 whilst on a prayer pilgrimage in France, in a noted Prayer Centre,
God the Holy Ghost visited Anton when he saw a vision of Jesus and Our
Lord affirming His anointing on his life.
He then attended a ‘Life in
the Spirit’ seminar at Westminster Cathedral, London to learn how the Holy
Spirit is renewing Christians all over the world.
On Sunday morning's we, (our family's picture is at the bottom of this page) faithfully attended Church. We attended morning service today, 1st March 2009, customarily called St. David’s Day. The Pastor spoke on the theme of spiritual warfare, from Ephesians Chapter 6 verses 10 -23. He shared that there are 400 times in the New Testament where The Christian life is somehow described as a battle. The local Church has become dangerous to the evil one, for two large movements started even among the very streets of South East London. One was called the Salvation Army, where Catherine Booth preached her first sermon outside on the common near St Marks Church, Kennington. Then with William Booth they commenced the largest explosion of Church growth English history has ever seen, and it impacted the whole world. Another Church organization called Ichtus and the associated March For Jesus started in the very streets of SE London. Notwithstanding, Spurgeon also commenced his preaching in SE London.
He also cited cases of intense warfare that the congregation were now experiencing, examples being fires spontaneously breaking out in members homes and children unexpectedly becoming seriously ill. The reason why I am mentioning this is because I had absolutely no idea that he was going to speak on this theme. It was during the same week that I had earlier posted This link:
For over 13 years Dad faithfully prayed and spoke the Word of our Lord aloud (the verses of the bible) every day, together with Jannine. Dad coached her on how to articulate the biblical verses, oozing and speaking them, percolated with the sweet fragrance of the Holy Spirit. To discern whether Dad has done a successful job, do hear a short rendition of her public reading at All Saints Church, Peckham on 19 July 2009 at the 10 am service:

b) If your Christianity does not work at home, then it does not work at all:
then don’t bother to export it!!

Imagine this: ( to appreciate why its so unbelievable read this LINK: the BBC television, are coming to do a “Live” national broadcast of the Sunday morning service at All Saint’s Church, Peckham on Pentecost Sunday, 23 May 2010. It will be zoomed into the exosphere from 10 to 11 am. If you are watching the TV service , you might spot our family sitting at our usual pew at the back. We have been fellowshipping at All Saints for about 9 ½ years. Press this LINK to arouse your interest on how through a Divine intervention we got involved with this church. We have specifically kept a very low profile although we are faithful members.
It is such a dramatic contrast when we travel to minister the Word of God abroad especially South East Asia as our lifestyle metamorphoses into a striking variation. A transformation takes place. We teach and pray for restoration to the broken hearted, the sick and the infirmed. In certain churches with the pastor's permission we proclaim and declare the prophetic Word. Any individual that comes our way we invariably pray for them, concluding with an encouraging prophetic word. The family is fascinated by my quiet demeanour when in church in London, England. Although they are keenly observant that the passion to minister the name of Jesus transposes itself, for a role change occurs when I minister as a cyberspace internet missionary/ evangelist. For this website is very active and visitors are viewing this space from various parts of the world. The precise statistics are at the very end of this page. Just suffice to state that to date we have received more than 550,000 hits from all over the world since its inauguration in August 2002.Thanks be to God!
These figures are a pleasant surprise to me given the fact that I absolutely had no knowledge on how to operate a computer in 2002. For my competency on computers was approximately non-functional. I self taught with great help from our children.
Read this self explanatory e-mail I received from my former classmate in Malaysia:
From Chacko Paul, 24th December 2007
"It took me a few days to digest the deluge of information of you and family- hence the delay ! And to think that you did not even have your own email- now with own website to boot !"
There is a double bonus here in that the BBC will also be recording two further programmes on two consecutive evenings for 'Songs of Praise.' Local Churches and charities have been invited to reveal the life and soul of Peckham. All this is happening in a church where a few years ago the bulldozers were coming in to demolish it!!
" There was a specific occasion on 23rd May 2010 when we sensed a sweet overflowing Presence of the Holy Spirit during the live national broadcast of the BBC service. Amazingly without any prompting or prearranged scenario, the highly trained and skilled BBC crew, comprising 5 cameras, caught me during this divinely arranged moment and I was so thankful that I managed to control my tears from pouring forth. View the You Tube production and see whether you can discern the moment on the video when the Presence of the Holy Spirit touched me. "

Sunday 23rd May 2010 will be the final official service for Rev. Frog (Francis), Amy Orr Ewing and their three children. We want to say a personal thank you to them for all their contribution to the life of the church. We wish Frog and his family farewell and every blessing in their new ministry in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.

On 25th February 2010 we heard Stuart McAllister International Director of Ravi Zacharias Ministries rendering a testimony of Amy Orr Ewing on Christian UCB radio. ( Incidentally Stuart McAllister’s episode on his conversion to becoming a Christian is also a terrific read, a blessing and even more challenging, since he spent time in prison for forty days for distributing Christian literature).
Referencing Amy’s fourth essay paper in her final year she had argued that the gospels were indeed reliable and authenticated that Jesus clearly claimed to be God. She had to undergo an unusual process called a viva. In front of senior professors of theology in the University of Oxford Amy had to defend what she had written in her theological exam. After the viva they awarded her one of the highest marks. The Departmental Head came and told her that the reason she almost failed was because in her exam she had destroyed her marking professor's entire life's work. He said, " You argued academically and archaeologically that there was a basis to all these things and it could be established academically".

On Friday, 16th January 1999, we were in Valerie’s house in Claygate, Surrey. At 11-15 pm we were about to leave for London, we went to say goodnight to Valerie’s Mum Vera Meilton . It was during this momentous moment she looked directly at us and told us in a rather sweet indirect fashion,--- “please take care of my only daughter”. She was clearly unwell, the final words she uttered to us were “All you need is Jesus.” We than prayed and anointed Vera with Holy oil and dedicated her to the sweet Presence of Jesus. 6 days later she died peacefully at Kingston General Hospital, with Valerie holding her hands.
The final words of Valerie‘s Mum to us echo so closely to the wonderful quotation of Oswald Chambers: “They feared as they entered the cloud.” Is there anyone, “save Jesus only” in your cloud? If so, it will get darker; you must get into the place where there is “no one save Jesus only”

Presently the Nicholas family is worshipping at All Saints Church, Peckham. From 20th July 2003 till the 23rd May 2010 the presiding Vicar was Rev. Frog Orr-Ewing. His wife Amy Orr-Ewing is also the Training Director of Zacharias Trust which is aligned to Ravi Zacharias International Ministries. Occasionally I do listen to his radio broadcast on UCB UK Christian Radio. Ravi is always encouraging and stimulating. The programme is transmitted at about 13-03 GMT, Monday- Friday.
Anton at this moment is very involved with some on going projects. Do read a part of a very recent interesting e-mail-2009, from Marigold Rivett Carnac the wife of my previous Vicar, by pressing this link: Its at the bottom of the my snippet.
Saida and Anton served, worshipped and led a Discipleship Group at St. Marks Church, Kennington, London, for many years, from the early 1980’s till the beginning of the 1990’s. For some time Anton led an early morning prayer meeting at St. Marks Chambers.
During this period the Vicar was Nicholas Rivett- Carnac. Not many people in St. Marks were aware of his family history. His father ended his naval career as a Vice-Admiral and was involved in both World Wars, 1 and 2. He commanded the battleship Rodney and was Rear-Admiral in charge of the Normandy Beaches during the Allied invasion of Europe in 1944. At the Memorial and Thanksgiving service for Nicholas Rivett-Carnac held at St. Marks Church on 23rd of October 2004 we heard Bishop Peter Walker, a former Principal of Westcott House Theological College Cambridge, saying in his testimonial that the wife of the Rear Admiral told the Bishop that if her husband had just made one mistake, it would have changed the whole direction of the war. What an awesome responsibility!
Nicholas Rivett-Carnac joined the Scots Guards. He spent 10 years with the regiment, serving as a platoon commander during the fierce fighting in Malaya, when he was mentioned in dispatches. He returned home in time to take part in the Coronation Procession in 1953. This clan of the Rivett- Carnacs were either Military men or Vicars. It's just an interesting note that Nicholas Rivett Carnac served in both capacities.
