Wales: The Way of Blessing The last two weeks we
published the encouraging story of Ffald-y-Brenin, a house of prayer and retreat centre in Wales
that has become the hub of a unique work of God’s Spirit. Last month Joel News
skyped with Roy Godwin to receive an update on recent developments in
Ffald-y-Brenin.
“The level of God’s Spirit is rising,” says Roy. “God is
now opening doors for us internationally. Already years ago God spoke to us that
the whole of Wales would become a house of prayer for the nations, and that He
would raise up people in Wales to carry God’s fire to the nations. Not because
of their gifting, but just because they had met with
God.”
'People regularly encounter angels and hear angelic
voices join in the praise and worship.'
“Here at the centre
we’ve alway resisted the label ‘revival’ to describe God’s work at
Ffald-y-Brenin, we rather call it ‘waves of God’s blessing’. Visitors regularly
wake up in the middle of the night, overcome with joy. Thousands of people from
around the world have come over to experience God in a new way. He proves
himself more kind and gentle than people thought He was. Many received healing.
Just recently a deaf woman, and a depressed person, and someone with severe
trauma. People regularly encounter angels and hear angelic voices join in the
praise and worship. These kind of miracles happen all the time. We have double
capacity now, and are booked out at least a year ahead.”

Testimonial - Blind Eyes Healed
An important focus for Roy and Daphne and their
team is to train people in the principles of prayer, who then train
others.
“Several years ago a large man came up to Ffald-y-Brenin. He
entered our kitchen, slammed his fist on the table and exhorted us: ‘This is
what God says: how dare you bring many babies to birth and then put them on the
draining board to die?’ We realized it was not sufficient to talk about the
principles we discovered over the years, we intentionally had to start training
people, network them and multiply.”
'The man slammed his fist
on the table and exhorted us.'
This prophetic warning was a
preparation for what was to come. “Since 12 months we see a real explosion of
God’s work across the nations,” says Roy. “Many local houses of prayer are
springing up. In Africa God is bringing national leaders together from every
nation, and we’re invited to train them to bless their lands. We’re responding
to national bodies and denominations to start movements, by their invitation. We
train the facilitators of national networks to go out across the nations and
develop new networks. There are key leaders in nations who’ve never heard of
Ffald-y-Brenin, who received dreams in the night in which God told them to call
us, because He wants to release something new in their nations.”

Roy doesn’t get carried away with it. “All this
is the Lord’s initiative, we just seek Him.”
This year a new book will be
released - ‘The Way of Blessing’, an update of the last eight years at
Ffald-y-Brenin. “It presents a different way of discipleship and looking at the
Christian life. What Jesus actually said and taught versus what we grew up with
in church,” says Roy. It should be out in Autumn.
