Ring of Fire Immediate Prayer Alert
Geoff Sadler
May 13, 2006
There is a great immediate need I believe for prayer concerning the so called "ring of fire" in both Asia and the Northwest USA. This will sound odd there but today is the football cup final day in England and Liverpool who are playing in it have released their cup final song which is a rendition of "ring of Fire" by Johnny Cash. It is a favorite with the fans who for some reason sing it. I believe it's prophetic so that we can pray about this area. I've been praying concerning this and felt that I should alert you to pray. Having put it off I was listening to the game just now and felt led to look at the BBC website where I saw that a volcano in Indonesia is about to erupt. Please pray concerning this and pass this on to those who will.
[Editors notes:
Some people are saying that an event may occur within the next 1-2 months that
would affect the whole world. This could be it.
"Merapi is one of at least 129 active volcanoes in Indonesia, part of the Pacific "Ring of Fire" - a series of fault lines stretching from the Western Hemisphere through Japan and Southeast Asia."

Ring of Fire
As with some prophetic messages there are a number of levels to them. Having thought some more about the song "Ring of Fire" I realised that as well as it being a warning and call to pray for the "Ring of Fire" areas in Asia and the Pacific rim, it's also a message about Love and passion (all be it an unhealthy passion in this case). To tell you the story briefly again, I was aware that God sometimes uses apparently non-Christian means to get His message across. In this case I know that God has spoken to me before through songs and things that have happened in Liverpool as I believe it has a prophetic call on the city, although, as with anything, sometimes it can be used by the devil. he always tries to twist things around and pervert what God meant for good. However God always has the last laugh and can use the devil for His purposes.
It's no coincidence that the same day that the F. A. cup final is played in England between Liverpool and West Ham that the Cup Final song of Liverpool Football Clubs is "Ring of Fire" there is a warning in Indonesia which is in the so called "Ring of Fire" area, about a volcano which shows signs of erupting. I had been feeling in my spirit for some time prior to this that this would be the case and I believe there is a call to pray specifically for this region and the whole of the "Ring of Fire" region. As I was listening to the game the song was intermittently being played over and over on the LFC website. I was asking the Lord about it and saying to Him "If this is for your purposes let there be an amazing comeback by Liverpool like they did the year before in Istanbul when they came back from 3 down to 3-3 eventually win the European Cup on penalties. Liverpool were 2-0 down at this point in the game today. To cut a long story short they eventually came back and it finished 3-3 again and Liverpool again won the game on penalties. It's being called the best cup final ever as was the European final the year before. There's a reason that God wants to highlight this, one as I've mentioned already is for prayer, the other is for us to GET READY because He is going to release a Passion and LOVE for the things of His kingdom worldwide like never before. Another strong message that God is saying is this, NEVER SAY DIE. Never stop believing what He has said to you until it comes to pass.
There is also a warning involved and it's this, WATCH WHAT YOU SAY! The opposing team, West Ham's, song is "I'm forever blowing bubbles" part of which says "They fly so high they reach the sky, then like my dreams they fade and die". that's exactly what happened to them today. They were winning for most of the game but eventually lost. We can do that too if our core belief is for this to happen. God wants us to BELIEVE for HIS will for our lives and not let the enemy convince us otherwise. All this to say that God has highlighted the two finals for a REASON. It's about passion and it's about love but it's also a call to pray for and try and avert a catastrophe. Please keep these things in prayer and receive a passion for Him and the things of His Kingdom.
Ring Of Fire Lyrics
Johnny Cash
Ring Of Fire
Johnny Cash
(At San Quentin)
Love is a burning thing
and it makes a fiery ring
bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire...
I fell in to a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns, burns, burns
the ring of fire
the ring of fire.
The taste of love is sweet
when hearts like our's meet
I fell for you like a child
oh, but the fire went wild..
