Now the Time has come again for Oslo

In May 2008 I rented Misjonskirken at Majorstuen for a meeting with the Ugandan national prophet, Princess Sarah Mwambu (photo credits: Oslokirken)

In the period March-May 2019, powerful prophetic words were spoken about Oslo through Rich Vera, Dionny Baez and William Undi during live TV meetings on Visjon Norge in Drammen. The prophecies were about revival in Norway's capital. It probably surprised many that I was central to all the prophecies. None of the three prophets knew me in advance. (Some of these prophecies are published on our website.)

Aina & I are always responsive to the Lord's call, and we know from experience that things can happen quickly if those involved are willing.

But we also know that things can be delayed and prevented by people. Hebrews 11 tells us a lot about that.

After the prophecies in 2019, Visjon Norge itself started renting beautiful, expensive premises in the center of Oslo, and we stood on the sidelines and applauded for something we were not involved in.

We have had to move more slowly, but we have always known what the Lord said emphatically in 2019. Romans 12:3-13 is an important study in this regard. The apostle Paul says:

«For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned».

Here are profound lessons that it is imperative to work according to in a large city like Oslo.

Now we are writing May 2025 - six years after the triple prophecies, and we are ready to take new steps.

We are especially happy to be part of Pastor Joseph Mwangaza’s POWER conference, which will be held on May 9-10 in rented premises in Misjonskirken at Majorstuen. The collegial fellowship with the Congolese-Norwegian pastor, and other Oslo pastors, bodes well for the future. 

Here I am reminded of when in May 2008 I myself rented Misjonskirken at Majorstuen for a meeting with the Ugandan national prophet, Princess Sarah Mwambu. She prophesied mighty things that would come in Oslo, the capital of Norway. Now 17 years have passed, and it seems that the time has finally come.

On May 27-30, I am among 1,000 invited delegates to Franklin Graham's monumental European Congress on Evangelism in Berlin. Since 1949, the Graham name has been synonymous with revival, soul winning, and Christian unity worldwide.

When I participate in Berlin, I am determined to stand with other Norwegian leaders who want to promote this revival, soul winning, and Christian unity in Oslo.

I am reminded that in 1978 I was the youth chairman during Billy Graham's crusade in Oslo and Stockholm. I led public meetings at Youngstorget in Oslo with 5,000 young people every night. The Lord did a mighty work.

Now the time has come again for Oslo, the capital of Norway.
