Ireland’s first Glory School - Lyn Packer
We have just spent a few days In Northern Ireland teaching Irelands first ever Glory School and releasing the glory into the nation prophetically as well. For me I felt a very deep connection with the nation and felt like a child of the land come back to bless the land (one of my great great grandfathers was Irish) so it was to prove to be an intense time for me there. The people were wonderful and so hospitable. Mary and Eric were the hosts for the school and they have such a heart to see the glory released in Ireland. Mary runs Butterfly Ministries and ministers to women to see them released into the fullness of what God has for them and is doing a great job there seeing lives transformed. But back to the school…
There was so much angelic activity during that time and right from the first worship time I was aware that we were ministering at a national level not just to that small group of peoples individual lives. During the first worship time I saw and sensed the room was so full of angels that many were having to stand outside looking in through the windows and that they were intensely interested in what God would do over the next few days.
One angel in particular I noticed. He looked like he had just been in an intense battle, his clothing was dirty and torn in places and he looked like he was weary from the fight. One of the angels in the room stood and gave him his seat then knelt and ministered in some way to him. He noticed me watching and said “I just want to sit in the worship and be refreshed for a bit before I report back”; he told me that he had been fighting in the spirit realm over the nation. I had the sense that he had ministered in the nation of Ireland for many hundreds of years and was one of the original angels assigned to the nation. I was surprised I guess that our worship could be refreshing to an angel and then the vision faded. A while later I saw him standing before the throne reporting to the Father telling Him that everything was ready and in place. I sensed that he was talking about what was to happen during the Glory School in the spirit realm.
We had about fifty very hungry people there at the school – hungry for God and for Him to move in their nation. Right from the beginning they began to pull on heaven and the worship times over the conference were full of prophetic release and strategic positioning over the nation.
During our time in the school we laughed and we cried as God turned up and moved amongst us and the glory was released in that conference room in ways that some had never experienced before. Many saw and sensed angels and they had visions and encounters that were profound.
People’s experiences were as usual quite simply life changing for them and many of them have experienced God to a depth they had never known before. The following experiences happened to people during the activations and were shared by them at the school.
One man spent time with Jesus and they talked about things that pertained to his life then he watched Jesus planting trees, which instantly grew, and he saw the reality of there being no “time” in the spirit realm. He then was transported in a way that felt like he was flying over Belfast and he then landed in his garden where Jesus told him – “Call the city to prayer, call the city to prayer.” He is now going away to ask the Lord to show him both the strategy and timing for that to happen.
One lady went to the Throne room and there saw the sea of glass and a bright light emanating from the throne; then Jesus walked out of the light and invited her into it. She felt as she entered that she was entering the very heart of God and could feel and hear his heartbeat. She felt God was drawing her into a greater place of intimacy and fellowship than she had ever known before. Then she heard in the distance a groaning and she asked the Father what it was and he told her that was the earth groaning for the manifestation of the sons and daughters of God. Then God told her he wanted to send her back with love and she saw a garment on herself with pockets everywhere and an angels was stuffing the pockets with so much love and when she thought it was full more pockets appeared and God said to her “As you sow my love you will reap the glory”.
One lady saw a field of daisies and when she asked what they were he told her they represented his children. She noticed how white they were, so clean and so white and she felt that represented purity (daisies can represent purity and childlikeness). Then she saw the daisies uprooted and they began to march through the gates and she asked God where they were going and he said to do good works. When she asked him what she should bring back he told her that she should feed the poor. So now she is praying whether that is a literal feeding of the poor or a spiritual feeding of the poor (teaching the poor in spirit) and asking God to show her the next steps.
One woman saw herself standing in a place where the floor of it suddenly gave way and she fell into water, which was deep and flowing quickly. She asked where the water was coming from and heard “Its from the throne” she was swept away in the current and she asked the Lord where he was taking her and he answered “ I’m flooding the nations” so she asked him what he wanted her to do and he replied “Bring healing into the nations”. She is soon to go on a missions trip overseas and this was a real confirmation of this for her but I believe it was also a commissioning encounter that would release her to minister the healing power of God in many places, many nations.
Another lady rode on the back of an eagle to a country far away that she didn’t recognise. Then when they landed the eagle became Jesus and she realised the eagle represented the fact that Jesus had carried her there. She felt a little frightened at seeing the people of the place and yet the people there soon put her at rest. They gave her gifts and she gave them gifts back and then they saw Jesus and they ran to him and were loved. Then Jesus turned to her and said, “No matter where I take you, as long as I am with you everything will be okay”. Then she said she felt it was a continuation of her first encounter where Jesus had played with her and they had had fun together. She said her life had always been real serious but Jesus was showing her that to walk with him was fun and that he would be with her and that nothing was a problem to him.
God is doing wonderful things in Ireland. In the midst of troubles and tensions the faithful remnant who are not held captivity by religion but are true followers of Jesus are being raised up and released as carriers of his presence and power. Ireland is on course for a release of the glory that has not been seen since it’s early Christian roots. It will again be a nation that touches nations, that spreads the gospel of the Kingdom with signs and wonders following. It will again release truths to the nations, unfolding the mysteries of God and making them plain so people can see and run.. It will again be known as a land of saints and scholars to a degree that it has never seen before. Bring it on God, Ireland and the nations wait for you to move.

Gloucester Report by Lyn Packer
May 13, 2010
We had a great time in Gloucester with Wes and Sharon Boxhall from Golden Valley Church. About 40 people attended the Glory School and on Sat afternoon we did the Angel encounter and the Father encounter. During the angel encounter people saw and sensed angels that had come to minister in the room. There was lots of angelic activity during that time and release of things into the natural realm. Angels were seen or sensed that came to guard and protect, others were there to pour out oil on us so we would become less stiff and starchy and would be loosened up. Others came to give fun and play, still others came to release serious things and gifts into the earthly realm.
Most of the encounters people had were symbolic in nature and the meaning of them quite profound as they were interpreted. In the encounters with Father one person got to play in Fathers sandbox, it was huge and they built sandcastles together and God reassured her that he would build with her. Another flew with God through the universe to a garden where He played with her, climbed a tree and got her a coconut and did many other Dad type things with her reassuring the lady that he loved just spending time with her. Abba God loves to spend time with his kids and always has time for us.
Sat night worship just blew out, it was amazing, again there were prophetic declarations and a real wonderful flow of Gods grace and love. Worship went for almost an hour and a half amazingly but that did mean I had to shorten the evening session teaching in order to get the activation times in and not go too late. Although, I don’t think people would have minded if we went late, the presence of God was so tangible.
During the worship I clearly heard the Lord say “The dolphins are coming” and immediately knew that fun was being released for this Church to walk in.
In the activation times – One man swam in the sea of Gods love with the dolphins and went real deep seeing houses on the bottom of the sea (representing those who live deep in the love of God) and diving down and bringing up treasures, he brought up a pearl (which talks of the treasures of the deep) and then dived again and brought up a crystal ball ( representing a seer anointing) , he ate those things as he was told so they became part of him. Earlier in the day I had been diving in that sea and found a pearl too, and then Wes told of an experience he had five years ago where he had a very similar encounter.
One man saw in the spirit a trapeze swinging in great arcs and he noticed that it was Jesus swinging there hanging by his knees. Jesus invited him to climb to the platform and leap and he was caught by Jesus. His grip was firm yet gentle. He swung with no fear knowing he was safe and Jesus reassured him that any step of faith he asked him to take that He would be there to catch him and he could rely on Him to keep him held by his hands.
One lady danced with Jesus on the Crystal sea then she was on earth with him and as she saw herself reaching out to people she saw that even while doing that the dance went on all the time. Jesus moving with her in perfect synchronization in whatever she did.
One lady stood in the spirit on a map of Norway and Finland and she saw herself driving stakes into the land that would impact both the natural and spiritual realms over those nations, she saw herself lighting fires across the nations she went to. Then Jesus called her to begin to intercede for those nations.
One lady saw the Lord dressed as a clown and they both laughed and sang and clowned around on a big stage and then they turned and they sang to each other the song ‘Endless Love’ but as they sang it to each other they sang it over the people there. Then the Lord picked up a bucket filled with paper hearts and threw it in the air, as he did the hearts became butterflies that flew around the air surrounding them and the people who had been invited onto the stage with them by this time.
Another lady had an experience where she was romanced by Jesus in several different places in the spirit realm. She went on a picnic with Jesus in a forest where he fed her with his hand, he took her to dinner and placed a betrothal ring on her hand. She felt the most deep and incredible sense of belonging to him.
What an amazing weekend we had, lives forever changed by encountering God and his wonderful, faithful, enduring, unchanging love. May Gloucester never be the same again because of what God did in individual lives and in the spiritual realm over that city this weekend
Cornwall Report from Lyn Packer
May 7, 2010
Last weekend we ministered in Cornwall to a group of hungry creative type people. There were writers, poets, artists, musicians and even a film editor. On the Saturday we spent the day with them encouraging them, praying for them and prophetically calling them into the fullness of their giftings. We ministered to many of them in the area of disappointments and rejections and saw Daddy set them wonderfully free. Free from words that cause restrictions and bondages, free from being misunderstood and unappreciated by the Church, free to be who they are, craftsmen and artists made in the image of Creator God, bearing his imprint.
We stayed with Phil and Kathy Laity at “Hepzibah” – a house built in 1843; young by English standards really. It was a treat to be there and to be asked to minister there by them. (the photo on the left shows Phil & Kathy outside the old barn and the other photo is the house itself)
As we worshipped God gave me a prophetic word that spoke into the destiny of the Cornwall / Devon border area. It will be a creative and media hub that would affect the nation. I saw a fight happen in the heavenly realms, a principality fall and an Angelic warrior called Light-bearer take it’s place. This angel is (I believe) assigned to this region to help birth and set in place the purposes of God in regard to the Arts and Media. I believe Cornwall and Devon will see an influx of creative people, being drawn by the Spirit of God into the region. Musicians, artists, writers, media people of all sorts be released into your prophetic calling – to show the heart of God and bring release, healing and prophetic announcements of God’s heart and plans to the nation. Shine in all your glory and let your art of whatever discipline, be something that releases life into the region and beyond. Set the course, show people where God is taking us through your art, be the prophetic people you are called to be.
