×This is the sketchiest of sketches, musically speaking, but I was looking for something that would reflect and speak into the unsettledness of our times. Obvious examples spring to mind, such as the grim situation on the battlefront in Ukraine, and the endless grief in the heart of that nation - but may the Lord lead you where He and you together would go in prayer. And may the musical fragments serve in this process!…
1 I bind unto myself this day hésuchazó and charmolupē (Stillness and Joy-Grief) 4:05

4:05When I wrote this piece, Stillness and Joy, I ‘bookended’ it with the theme from that wonderful hymn, 'I bind unto myself this day’ – the great ‘Breastplate’ prayer for protection that is widely accredited to St Patrick.* The Greek words I used in the title are hésuchazó (stillness, rest, quiet, silence) and charmolupē, a remarkable compound word that St John Climacus, a 7th century monk of Sinai, coined, which means a combination of joy and grief. Only in the Lord can we bear heavy burdens in the Spirit that move us to tears, and yet still know the deep stirrings of the Lord’s joy in our hearts. We only read twice in the gospels of Jesus weeping. The first time is when John records Him weeping when He hears of the death of Lazarus. The second, in Luke’s gospel, is the occasion when Jesus weeps over Jerusalem, because it had failed to recognise the hour of its visitation, and would pay a terrible price for its blindness and deafness. There are many things in the world around us, and perhaps in our own immediate circumstances too, to move us to tears. May we experience much of the Lord’s own hésuchazó-stillness as well as His charmolupē, joy-grief, as we draw close to Him – pressing through the challenge of external distractions and inner whirring thoughts, before we reach a place of greater settledness and closeness to the Lord who loves us so much, and who hears our every prayer. May this music help to focus the longings, emotions and deep concerns of our heart in prayer. *https://ruachministries.co.uk/we-arise-a-mighty-army-this-day-the-lorica-breast-plate-of-st-patrick/…

26:21Nebuchadnezzar's empire was as secure and far-reaching as any great world power in the ancient world, but in himself, the king was not at rest. Night after night, disconcerting dreams swirled round his head, robbing him of peace and well-being. Dreams not only reflect the preoccupations of our hearts, but sometimes contain within them significant prophetic pointers. By revelation, the Lord showed Daniel that Nebuchadnezzar had dreamt of an enormously large and imposing statue – which said a lot about what the king thought of himself and his works! All his energies had gone into building an empire that honoured his own name, and he was dazed and dazzled by his golden splendour. The Lord was less impressed, however, and drew Daniel’s attention to the image’s fallible feet of clay. Empires may dominate the world stage for a season, but flawed foundations make it impossible for them to endure forever, be they Babylonian, Alexandrian, Roman, Napoleonic, British, Third Reich or Soviet. Drawing on Daniel’s experiences in Babylon, and on his understanding of the way the Lord worked, in this presentation, Elizabeth and I ask the Lord to help us respond strategically to the challenges His people must deal with when living under ungodly regimes and empires: a very pressing question for millions of believers around the world today. Enjoy the lovely worship we have inlaid into our prayers toward the end too!…

Teleman Allegro by Ruach Breath of Life
Telemann Largo by Ruach Breath of Life
Stunningly flamboyant, and said to have been inspired by a Polish folk dance, here is something to bring heart-skipping joy! Nicola Gerrard and Julia Herzog lead us in this fast-flowing movement from Georg Philipp Telemann’s double concerto for flute and recorder, which we recorded during our ‘Heaven’s Kingdom’ event in Kempsey in 2018. Telemann was a prolific composer, and highly regarded by his baroque contemporaries, more so even than Bach and Vivaldi! After all the muck and mire of so much disheartening and distressing news in the media, we pray that something of the exultation and purity of Heaven’s own Kingdom will spill out through the music, carrying the life and rhythm to hearts and homes.…
Russian Hymn with words by Ruach Breath of Life
The scale of the depradations and sufferings in Ukraine has been astonishing as the result of Putin's invasion. These are offerings to help us keep all the citizens who are grieving at losing homes, families and loved ones as a result of the war. The suffering is by no means all one way. Whole Russian brigades have simply ceased to exist as a result of being wiped out in a war that they are not allowed to report to friends and family back home on pain of imprisonment. Could anything be more soul destroying? They too are bearing an immense cost. May the Lord meet with many on both sides of this demonically-inspired conflict. Can I suggest listening to the following as a piece of music and praying for as many dimensions to this whole conflict as come to mind? Then, when you have listened and prayed, hear it again in the next track called Russian Hymn with Words, in which it is revealed as an old Russian hymn from more stable times.…
Many years ago, as a young Christian, the Lord gave me this lovely song, reassuring me of His constant watchfulness and presence. I used to sing it to the community I was part of in Oxford. I recorded it some years ago with Janey Petterson, and now, because I woke up this morning ‘hearing’ it in my heart, have finally mustered the courage to release it. I hope it will bless you, and perhaps play its small part in the ‘foundations’ of our trust in the Lord’s care and watchfulness over us all!…

9:14On both sides of the Conflict. Ongoing prayer for those caught up in the war in Ukraine by Ruach Breath of Life
With increasingly violent protests occurring on our streets in the UK, which once again greatly threaten people and properties, and stretch the police forces, let’s join in this prayer with considerable urgency. Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ . . . and if you call on Him as Father who judges impartially according to each one's deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile. [here on Earth](1 Peter. 1:13,17 ESV) With algorithms, news items and social media posts skilfully fuelling people’s prejudices, and so increasing their sense of outrage – and when even the spiritual discernment that enables us to recognise when things are not being built to according God’s plumbline – all such things can leave us feeling incensed rather filled with the passion of God – which itself includes righteous anger as opposed to mere rage. Each one of us faces the challenge of needing to be willing to take our stand for truth, (and against that which is not truth), but without allowing our hearts to become contemptuous and dismissive – or even consumed with hatred against those who think very differently from ourselves. It is really important to pray that the love of Jesus wins the day in so many peoples’ hearts, and in so many situations rather than the power of hatred. Please note that in this brief prayer along those lines, when I say that I am not praying primarily for such 'categories' as hypocrites, hackers and those infested with an overly partisan spirit, I am not saying that we should not pray for these people, for we are called to bless all who spitefully use and ill use others, but am simply directing the focus of the prayer elsewhere. One of Handel’s powerful Sarabandes provides a stirring backdrop for this prayer, with the musicians then expanding into a time of improvisation beyond it. May the Lord lead us to pray the love of God into many hate-fuelled and filled situations.…
