THE " Madeleine's Prayer"

Where there is good in the world , let this good unite. Where there is strength , let us be as giants in the face of darkness . Where there is hope , let our hearts long for Madeleines's return." ( the "official" Madeleine prayer praying not for the return of the messiah nor the matreia or the sacred feminine- but for a girl that has become almost as iconic as Lady Dianna in the eyes - certainly of the British public- as well as many around the world.)...its a personal prayer... and Im sure it comes from the heart of God Himself. Lets keep it that way. Without involving God in our prayers... we rely only on human strength... and this I believe ... is not enough to find madeleine.

A Pilgrimage to Praia Del Luz-

Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Luke 12,6

this is the ongoing saga of the caravan to break the deadlock in the investigation to find out what happened to
Madeleine McCann. I decided to visit the place where Maddy was abducted from and to try
the Ocean Club
the Ocean Club
we are " welcomed at the Ocean club where maddy was stolen from
to sense the powers, principalities and HOW to pray into this affair. This pilgrimage was both an intercessory one and an attempt to uncover any discrepancies in the investigation from that reported by the media and to that which actually exists on the ground.

"For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."(Eph. 6,12)

We are in a small village called La Canada(the place of transition of animals/people) north of Madrid in Spain about 40 kilometers. My Decision today must be whether or not to proceed to Praia del Luz in Portugal to shake up a few powers and principalities or to return to England.

I am indeed at a crossroads..it will be extra costs involved and time�?both of which I don’t have too much of right now. On the other hand I am learning more about Spanish life and mentality here in the countryside with some really beautiful people who have welcomed us and treated us like their own sons.

Madrid along with Hamburg and Amsterdam and Moscow has got to be one of the most debauched cities in Europe...a modern day sodom and gommorrah- but - exactly opposite to this we have met up with a decent , kind and compassionate - and extremely hospitable family - who I got connected with in Israel during my peace work in Jerusalem and the Holy Land last year.

Rafi ( an Israeli), my travel companion is dealing with his own demons and cant sleep much…despite this he doesn’t believe he needs any help for his problems...( its always like that)- and does not wish to change himself…merely his current circumstances. I decided to bring Rafi ( a compulsive gambler)with me-;( paying all the expenses) because I felt he needed the break from England,his life and his overly possessive wife�?she has just run into implode and has sent a text saying she is going to commit suicide if he doesn’t come back immediately…I have discovered it doesn’t matter how much you try to help someone in life�?you cant if they don’t want to be helped�?sometimes good intentions- even like finding maddy is the same as anything in life- you can lead the horse to water- but you

cant make it drink- not even if you choke him a little...! - that doesnt mean we must not stop trying however,

True salvation begins with repentance.. and true repentance begins NOT with the fear of the consequences of your actions…but of the Fear of God�?!-( FEAR OF GOD IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM)Ecclesiates)- In the words of Lord Nelson after the victory of Trafalgar: " Britons know this:fear nothing but the living God!"( its enscribed on the mens wall outside the gents toilet at Trafalgar square.)

you need to be CONVINCED & CONVICTED by the HOLY SPIRIT.. and that is why I believe this pilgrimage to praia del luz to intercede for the McCann family will assist in a breakthrough in their lives�?I do not believe in the OCCULT nor Occultic mediums and diviners who claim they can find this girl... I believe in a LIVING GOD- An all knowing God that works in the spirit of ALL men and HAS the POWER to convict ALL men of their sin... someone in this world KNOWS what happened to MADDY and that person has a SPIRIT ... a SPIRIT PLACED IN HIS OR HER CHEST that

comes from GOD... - and this SPIRIT is what will convince and CONVICT that person to bring this matter to the LIGHT... it is up to US who believe in this LIVING GOD to pray that GOD will intervene in the matter and deal with this situation...

I dont believe the attempted BEATIFICATION OF "SAINT MADELEINE "(more of that in a minute) - is of God - this is not the way... The family are doing their best under the circumstances of what they know and what they dont know... they are trying every NATURAL MEANS... ITS TIME NOW TO TRY THE SUPERNATURAL MEANS... and this will show us if indeed they have what it takes to go all the way - through the fire to discover and uncover the truth.... the matter is indeed in their hands...BUT it is up to them to place it in GODS HANDS... - and allow for SUPER-natural intervention!

and this is our reason for coming to Portugal.... to make a difference...to bring this matter to its critical mass - to ask God to take over the investigation- and to act as a prophetic spiritual catalyst...!

So we decide together �?

Rafi for his mental health sake�?me for the sake of my conscience�?

A warrior of God does not look back…nor is afraid of the consequences �?of what the world can do�?yes, it is a walk of faith�?but in essence this is the job that some of us do as spiritual travelers�?we go to BREAK the stronghold over a situation and to preach the kingdom of heaven to all men�?both in the spirit and in the flesh�?
The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.(2 Corinthians 10,4)
The Mc Canns on the surface have to rely on natural methods and the obvious ones that the technical knowledge of man can provide�?BUT - when all of that fails�?
Well, its time for God - through SUPERNATURAL means to make something happen�?often�?man tries to take the glory for himself�?instead of giving it to God�?
And that just goes to show how

This is the last picture we took before they asked us to leave the building... - ( they brought 3 security guys with to back up the request. After 7pm they said we were allowed to visit the bar.
stupid we are! - I’ve seen things happen in my travels too often to not dispute the sovereignty of God. ( On another blog I’ll give some examples of this)
"From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been forcefully advancing, and forceful men lay hold of it." (Matthew 11,12)

We are nearly in the Algarve- the M.A.D.C.A.P. ( Mobilised Angels Demanding Children Are Protected)caravan is now equipped with the same " supercar" that was in Israel and Jordan on the Oriental caravan (SEE [email protected])and the peace caravan last year... My friend David Monge - another peace worker - drove the car from Jerusalem to Madrid and prophetically left it there for us to continue on our JESUSCARAVAN of intercession.
We drive through the night hitting LISBOA - where we stop underneath the Highway next to the local zoo. We ask which is the best place to visit in the Algarve... We are told it is Albufeira. Three more hours of driving brings us to this coastal tourist town visited by mostly English tourists. Here we use the internet and make phone calls before looking where Praia del luz is... I see a

little town called LUZ ( Which means LIGHT) - So I figure this must be it.

It is next to a pleasant city called LAGOS - which incidentally is the capital of NIGERIA... As we are pretty tired we decide to stop at a truckstop along the way and take a cold shower. The highways in Portugal are mostly tollroads- whereas Spain is mostly FREE. Also the price of petrol is more than Spain by nearly 30 cents a litre. I converted my car to gas - which is more enviromentaly friendly - but the converter needs an adjustment so it doesn't work too well... but generally , it does save a lot of money to use gas rather than petrol... on a full tank my vehicle can do around 850 kilometers with both gas and petrol.

Its a real cruiser this volvo - and you can put the seats down... and sleep - all in all a very good car to travel in.As Robin Williams said " BOXY BUT DRIVES GOOD!"

As we arrive in Luz - we stop at a statue of JESUS - just outside the Ocean Club... We decide to park the car...and

take a walk to the Ocean Club. This whole little village has been affected by this tragedy, and yet their is a strange kind of tension ... the receptionist doesnt want us to photograph her - but is at first helpful and says we should go and see a fellow South African called Pedro- who works on reception.

One thing I want to mention here is this... the TV doesnt show ALL the angles... when you see it first hand ... it is different...
what I didnt see on the tv reports was the distance and location of the scene of the crime in relation to the rest of the resort... ie where the McCanns were eating their meal.

The next thing I didnt realise is that the OCEAN CLUB is spread out in over five locations around the village. What that means is that it is a big concern and not just a small hotel resort with a swimming pool. Pedro was very helpful but the management seem to shun us. I think they have had enough of this whole affair - the negative publicity - the " tourists" coming to praia del luz and asking the

same questions... the media.. the police etc. I did FEEL in my heart they wanted to get rid of us as quickly as possible. They apparently get bags of mail every day from all over the world as well as faxes... so they are probably tired of all the attention... although in a sense it could have some kind of a morbid attraction to those who like myself have become fascinated by this case.

I did sense in my spirit that there is something going on here in this village... I did not witness with Robin the General Manager - and if I were on the investigation team I would interrogate him first. -although I don't have any proof - I just didn't like him. - perhaps it was the way he spoke-or perhaps the way he totally ignored us...who can say... I didn't feel right about him... call it a sixth sense.-then again he could be a stand up guy... who knows... I would however... look into his backround and give him a lie detector test...just to be sure...!

After we left the reception of the OCEAN CLUB (tel+351 282 78 87 64/ email [email protected] )we

This probably is the gate where the abductor and Mrs. McCann used to enter and leave the apartment from .There is NO lock- No Security-nothing. It is also camoflaged by the bushes but leading straight... [more]
went to have a look at the complex where the McCann family were eating. What was not adequately reported on TV was the FACT that the apartment was a good 3 minutes walk... and the restaurant and swimming pool is surrounded and enclosed by a 6 foot wall... there is only one exit...and one entrance... - with NO CCTV ! -

The next thing I noticed was that the McCann apartment was on street level with a side gate accessing directly to the street. Of all the apartments in the complex it was the one most ideally suited for an abduction... the others did not have the instant access to the street.

When Mrs McCann got up from her meal at around 8:45pm and went to check on the child(9pm -which means it was not totally dark )- she would have had to walk out of the enclosed complex and turn left... walk around 50 metres to a side gate - go through it, up the stairs and into the back door of the apartment ...and check on her children sleeping... it was not as close as reported, nor the fact that there were child minders available to

look after the kids...- it was close to the restaurant but NOT THAT CLOSE- and also if you were going to set up an abduction - well... that apartment would have made the best alibi... - why... because the whole operation could be executed in the quickest and simplest way possible with no one seeing. I will come to this a little later...

After looking around the complex I knocked on the door and a woman answered it...looking a little peeved - after I said a few words she slammed the door in my face...
I waited a little while and again knocked - this time a man answered red faced saying were on holiday- I'm sick of this - **** off...

I asked him only one question: is this the apartment where the McCanns were staying? - he replied in the affirmative.
I interviewed a few of the local shop-owners and the general consensus was that its tragic but they should have been more careful... in other words they share the responsibility... and well children disappear all over the world every day... whats so special about Madeleine?... and this will bring me to the next point and
