When will the Church stop being politically correct? By Pr Daniel

Pastor Daniel NalliahDear family & friends in Christ,

Let me start by saying that our battle is not against flesh & blood, but against principalities and powers of darkness in high places (Eph. 6:11-12).

We as pastors and Christian leaders are accountable to God to lead the flock He has entrusted into our hands in the right path. We must stop being politically correct, and return to being biblically correct.  We desperately need your faithful intercessory prayer support (1 Timothy 2:1-7).

In the last few days I have received several phone calls and emails from Christians (including pastors and other Christian leaders) around the country asking me as to why Australian Christian Lobby appears to be promoting self-confessing atheist Julia Gillard for PM in this election and why the Senior Pastor of City Life Church recently stated in the Age newspaper on 6th August that he was not overly concerned by PM Julia Gillard’s atheism, ”Primarily you are looking at them to have what it takes to run the nation.”

http://www.theage.com.au/federal-election/gillard-bid-to-win-back-christians-20100805-11krh.html

I personally called the Senior Pastor to speak to him, but he was out of the country, so I spoke to his personal assistant who was very kind and cooperative in assuring me that she will talk to him and get back to me. As promised she did call me and confirmed that the Pastor had spoken to the Age newspaper journalist and that his response was on his blog.

I read through his blog, but could not find a clear answer to the question as to whether or not it concerned him that the PM was an atheist, so I also contacted the Age journalist who told me that his question to the Pastor about his concern over the PM’s atheism was very straight forward. For which the Pastor responded by saying, ”Primarily you are looking at them to have what it takes to run the nation.” 

We also recently read in the news media and on the ACL website that ACL (Australian Christian Lobby) was successful in getting PM Julia Gillard to speak to the Christian voters through the ACL website, where she made several promises in order to win back the Christian vote.

http://www.theage.com.au/federal-election/gillard-pitches-to-christian-voters-20100807-11pih.html

The question we all need to ask is, “Was PM Gillard genuine or was she simply making promises that she will never deliver. I was surprised when I heard that ACL was giving such a forum to Julia Gillard, knowing very well that she is an atheist. Many asked me “Why is ACL doing this again as they did the same with Rudd?” I honestly cannot understand how a Christian leader could give an atheist such a platform to mislead the Christian voters.

Last week I was surprised to read in the latest ACL news that they still speak of Kevin Rudd as a true Christian. How can Rudd be a true Christian, when he refused to acknowledge Jesus as the Son of God.  Furthermore, within one week of becoming PM he stated that “he will not look to God for advice but to his public servants.” Of course, what you sow is what you reap as his public servants did get him out before even he finished one term as PM.  Then in his closing speech as PM, he mocked God by referring to Him as ‘him or her’.

Mr Rudd constantly stated that he was a ‘garden variety Christian, whatever that means. I wonder as to how many Christians, pastors and leaders included, are the same. If they cannot see what is so plain and simple, it will be a very sad ending as many Christian sheep will be mislead by these Christian shepherds. (Gal 2:11-14, 2 Tim 2: 16-18 & 4:14, Titus 1:12-16)

PM Gillard promised that she will give more funding for chaplains. Yes she might do so, but could it be that she will remove all Christian chaplains and replace them with secular chaplains with atheistic values?? Can she keep a promise?? When she herself does not value marriage, how could you trust her not to give the homosexual community marriage rights??

I am shocked that some Christians leaders could even state that they are willing to have an atheist as the PM.  Ms Gillard publically stated that she is an atheist who does not believe in God. Now she has suddenly promised to give 1.5 million dollars to the catholic church in order to make a saint of Mary MacKilliop because she wants to win back the catholic vote.

How can any Bible-believing God-fearing Christian leader promote her when she is openly an atheist, very much a part of Emily’s List (pro-abortion) Fabien society (socialism) living in an de-facto relationship, refused to take the oath on the Bible and anti-God list goes on.  Now to make things even worse she has formed an alliance with the Greens.

I believe if Julia Gillard is elected as PM, mark my words, she will stop The Lord’s Prayer in parliament, remove Bibles from every place possible, make full term abortion available right across Australia, will give homosexuals full rights, will remove Christian chaplains out of schools, will pass laws to ban Christian evangelism and make it hard to speak the truth.  Interfaith will become the nation’s main religious force, Australia will turn against Israel,  our Judeo-Christian heritage will be completely destroyed, Islam will gain much ground like in Europe (as 8 out of 10 boats carry mostly Muslims) and the list goes on.

So we need to ask a serious question, “Are we going to continue to blindly follow the Christian shepherds who are misleading the flock?” The Word of God is clear, cleansing of a nation and judgement begins in the house of God, the Church of our Lord Jesus Christ (1 Peter 4:17).

I think it’s time to ask some hard questions from our leaders.

Why are many Pastors and Christian leaders not speaking out boldly to warn God’s people against the danger of an ungodly atheist Prime Minister leading our blessed nation of Australia, this Great South Land of the Holy Spirit?

The Bible clearly states in Joel 2:17, “Let the Priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the HEATHEN should rule over them; Wherefore should they say among the people, ‘where is their God?’”

    Pastor Danny,

    Having read your previous email and this one, one thing hits me hard for sure pastors of this age do not know that they have already slaughter the sheep in their fold.

    If we were to draw a fine line, I believe we will have to ask the question to all Pastors and followers;
    Are you a Believer in the personal of Jesus Christ or are you just a Christian???

    Believers do not fear what correct things are said, they speak the truth because GOD is the truth.

    I agreement with you, as soon as Julia Gillard gets in, she will definitely say good bye to the “Christians” who voted her in.
    We have the “wheat’ and the ‘tare’ in church today.

    May the words of our LORD Jesus come to pass. Christians have more lessons to learn as long as they remain fence sitters.

    Bless your heart with your family.

    Remain Blessed

    Compliments to Pastor Daniel. I fully agree, and am having difficulty understanding how any mature Christian of standing can countenance having a FORNICATOR and LIAR leading the Nation, and occupying the Lodge. Lord save her !

    Re Kevin Rudd, the simple test is Matthew 12: The Lord Jesus said “Out of the heart the mouth speaks,,and a tree will be known by it’s fruit”. He is not born again and the language for which he became infamous proves the point.

    We shall forward this across the Nation, as we have the deatiled Prayer list for Saturday

    Pastor Daniel,

    I have just read your remarks in your latest article that i received today.

    I am surprised at the lack of spiritual discernment in some of our Leaders in Christianity. I understand that God has made us all unique and given us different attributes and abilities, but we need to understand that although we are made differently, we need to understand God’s heart and become unified into the Father’s heart and His perfect will for our lives.

    How could anyone possibly want our country to be run by an Atheist? Especially when you have the Opposition party whose leader does believe in God.

    We need to be praying that the Christian leaders who influence their flock leading up to this election allow God to remove the scales from their eyes in order to see the way God sees. Pray for Godly wisdom to become a hunger for them in their lives.

    It is only when we completely die to self and allow God to Constantly work through us that we will see God’s nature being outworked in our lives.

    Thanks for being obedient to the Lord Pastor Daniel. I thank God for raising you up in His image and being Bold in Jesus Christ to proclaim the truth.

    All glory and honour belongs to the Lord Jesus Christ. King Of Kings and Lord of Lords!

    As I am not a leader of any congregation (Other than my own immediate family), can i please encourage other Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Pastors, teachers to come out and use the social media to get the truth out there into all the world. Use the technology of today as an advantage.

    People follow and listen to their leaders. Speak up now for Righteousness sake. Let your voice be heard. Remember, it is not for yourself, but it is for The Kingdom Of God.

    If you are being persecuted for your faith and your stand of Righteousness, then you must be in the perfect will of God. Where else would you rather be?

    Let us not fall into any of the traps (or trappings) of the world. Use the 5 spiritual senses that God has given to Every Spirit filled Christian Disciple of the Lord.

    Pray, pray pray, then wait upon the Lord and see what He tells you.

    People tend to not seek the Lord as they are either too busy or too tired, then they rely upon what others say or speak and base their judgment upon that combined with what they see with their natural eye. Why not get the true picture of what is happening both in the natural world as well as the spiritual world.

    Why not listen to what God has to say, and follow Him.

    You will be rewarded for your obedience to Him. Andrew

    Dear Pastor Nalliah

    Thank you for keeping us informed of the spiritual impacts of what is happening in this nation in regard to its leadership through Catch the Fire Ministries.

    I do not normally send emails such as this to spiritual leaders but feel that it is perhaps important to share at this time some the insights I believe have been given by God. Just for your information my husband John and I are very close friends of John and Sue who were on your recent trip to Israel. We have walked in very close relationship together with them over many years. I think you may have at some point also met my brother in Northern Tasmania some months ago but may not necessarily recall as you meet so many people.

    Like you and many others, I am alarmed, grieved and very disappointed at the spiritual blindness, lack of discernment and in some cases deception affecting many in the Body of Christ particularly about our political leaders/parties. But, also like you, I also believe wholeheartedly that “our battle is not with flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers of darkness in high places” (Eph 6 11-12). The enemy is not Julia Gillard or Kevin Rudd or Bob Brown for that matter. The enemy is the enemy behind them – working in and through them.

    I am somewhat reluctant about sharing the following but feel that you will handle it appropriately as you see fit for it could easily be misconstrued and misused.

    For your prayerful consideration and testing I wish to share that I think the Lord has shown me the spirit working through Julia Gillard is that of a “Madusa” spirit. You will recall that the Madusa is a mythical Greek figure with a head full of snakes. The Madusa (Greek: guardian, protectress) was in Greek mythology a Gorgon, a chthonic female monster. Chthonic (Greek: “in, under, or beneath the earth”, earth, earthy, subterranean) designates, or pertains to deities or spirits of the underworld………. This spirit in some modern terms can connote the concept of malevolence. It is most likely that in the spiritual realm the “Madusa spirit” is also associated with the Jezebel spirit and spirits of control & witchcraft. Additionally, I understand that the pact that has been made between the Gillard Government and the Greens is nothing short of a pact with the devil which will have dire consequences nationally, economically, industrially, morally, in fact in every imaginable area.

    However, having indicated all this our Lord is still in control and I believe that I have also been shown by the Lord a few months ago that the Lion of Judah is literally (running with mane flowing) ‘roaring towards this land to devour His enemies”. I have also seen in the Spirit some unusual heavenly beings that have been stationed at the 4 corners of our nation since about May. I have never seen anything like them before and I do not clearly understand their role except that there is some sort of heralding and maybe ‘protection’ factor. I have attached a picture to illustrate what I feel I have seen and heard from the Lord. The picture is but a poor image though. However, it should give you some idea of what I saw.

    I shall leave these things with you for your prayerful consideration and pray that the journey to Mt Ainslie will be fruitful for our nation. May our precious Lord bless you richly and keep you in His protection.

    Thank you.

    How can a Christian support Julia Gillard and the Labour Party or the Greens?
    This lady would sell her mother to get a vote.
    How many times has she lied? How quickly people believe these deceivers?
    The Labour party has a track record of allowing homosexual rights against the word of God, Abortion against the word of God, False religions against the word of God, She has wanted to cut the chaplaincy programs before the election, Doesn’t believe in God and is in a defacto relationship against the word of God. The labour party is trying to stop Christianity in Schools and churches.
    You can’t even refuse teachers or students if they are homosexual or of a different belief?
    Bob Brown has a Homosexual partner.
    Sin destroys a Nation but Righteousness uplifts a nation.
    Jesus died to bring the church into the light not to embrace darkness.

    We have been aghast at the lack of direction in the Australian public who seem to be so focussed on the specific issues that concern them to determine their vote. As humanism has become the philosophy of the day, there is no absolute standard anymore, and people waver backward and forward based on daily policy promises. We have been praying for a prophetic voice to be raised up to expose the spiritual dynamic that is operating in the political arena . Danny you are voicing that prophetic insight and bringing a timely warning to our nation. I only hope that this message can be spread to the wider population to expose the deception that is dulling the discernment of Australia.

  9. John

    As bad as this sounds, I don’t believe that Tony will win this election but I’m praying he does. After the last election when Kevin Rudd I got the felling that there would be 6 years for Labour, 7 years for something else then, 6 years. If Tony Abbott doesn’t win we may need to focus on bringing christians to the fold.

    In 2Ch 7:14 it states, ” If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

    Some Churches today are similar to the Church of Sardis and The Church of Laodicea. Some of the mainline Denominations are dead spiritually but there are a few good people within these churches. They are like treasure in the field. Some of the bigger churches were at one stage on fire for God but have lost the intensity and focus they once had. I am like that in some ways with my commitment to my online Bible Study waining in part due to World of Warcraft. I need to personally repent of how far short I’ve fallen.

    We should pray for more christians to wake up and start fighting in the same manor your minstry is. Thank you for fighting for us and standing in the Gap.

    Here is the text of a media release I put out as a part of my election campaign (I’m an endorsed CDP candidate in Victoria):

    Top four reasons why Gillard is unfit to be the leader of our nation:

    Because she supports abortion. Gillard is a key supporter and founder of EMILY’s list which is an organisation committed to abortion-on-demand. See: http://www.emilyslist.org.au/julia-gillard-bio

    Because she lives in a defacto relationship. Gillard demonstrates her contempt for the institution of marriage and provides an incredibly poor example to the youth of Australia. The future of our society depends upon restoring confidence in the institution of traditional marriage and family.

    Because she has chosen not to marry and have children. Gillard’s example is another negative in demographic terms. All over the Western world including in Australia, fertility rates are at an unsustainably low level. For the long-term survival of our culture, demographic experts say the fertility rate must be raised above an average of 2.1 children per female.

    Because she is an atheist. Whilst I certainly support freedom of religious belief, politics is an occupation where worldviews matter. Gillard’s policy positions will be informed by her atheistic worldview just as mine are informed by my Christian worldview. Atheistic beliefs provide no philosophical defense for concepts such as: the rule of law; the sanctity of human life; equality; liberty; and justice.

  11. Ewan

    The moral integrity of any leader but especially of the Prime Minister should be of concern to all especially to Christians. The fact that Gillard is a fornicator living openly in an immoral relationship should be of great concern to Christian leaders. Fornication is already rampant in our society and Gillard’s bad example will only encourage and further normalise it. The vast majority of Christian “leaders” have failed to raise this issue with the one exception being Ps. Danny. Once again Ps. Danny is the only Christian leader with the guts to tell it like it is.

    The many problems in our society can all be traced back to the door of the church. It is the church that has failed to be salt and light to our nation. We can’t blame the ungodly for our woes because they are just doing what ungodly people have always done. My feeling is that if Gillard and her Green mates get in on August 21, then this will be the last election campaign where we still have the freedom of speech to speak Christian moral truth to society.

    The response of the Australian church to politics is overwhelmingly one of apathy, but if Christians don’t start taking politics seriously we may find that it will soon be illegal to preach things like the fact that homosexuality is sin. Of course this won’t bother many churches since many of them have already compromised and capitulated to political correctness. As for the rest of us we’d better get used to the idea that we may be going into the closet. It seems that the homosexuals are now out of the closet and bent on putting Christians into one. After all, Biblical Christians are now the only ones left who still say there is anything wrong with homosexuality.

    Dear Ps. Danny

    As a reminder for all people voting, Labour and Greens wish to remove Australia’s consititution and replace it with a Republic and “Bill Of Rights”.

    That means -NO RECOGNITION TO GOD – as given in Australias Constitution. Here is the start of Australia’s Constitution:

    An Act to constitute the Commonwealth of Australia [9th July 1900]
    WHEREAS the people of New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia, Queensland, and Tasmania, humbly relying on the blessing of Almighty God , have agreed to unite in one indissoluble Federal Commonwealth under the Crown of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and under the Constitution hereby established:

    And whereas it is expedient to provide for the admission into the Commonwealth of other Australasian Colonies and possessions of the Queen:

    Be it therefore enacted by the Queen’s most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:

    Pray and inform others.

    God Bless

    Will said Ewan

    I’ll add Number 5
    A proven inability of the Labor Party to effectively manage Projects to use Public Money effectively and efficiently and a complete and woeful inability to manage Boarder Security for all Australians

    Examples
    (1) Education Revolution – Huge overexpenditures and rorting of public money. Computers still in boxes. Complete lack of planning and resoucing of training for computer use in schools

    (2) Poorly executed Home Insulation Scheme
    Several young men dead, Massive overseas imports of batts, Current Australian insulation businesses have been badly damaged

    (3) BOARDER Protection – Now a complete mess. Totally out of control

    (4) Billions of Mining projects delayed by an poorly conceived and executed mining Tax

    I could go one

    Please make your own decision. I will not be VOTING LABOR

    Dear Pastor Daniel,

    Thanks so much for the strong stand you are taking for Christian values and leaders in the election. It is so good to read your comments, with the wishy-washiness of Christians, or not voice at all so common.

    God bless,

    G’day CTF team,

    I’m Keith from Woy Woy on central coast of NSW. We are in the seat of Robertson, poss the most marginal seat in NSW. The sitting ALP Atheist MP who won on a few hundred votes, has been booted out and replaced by a strong believing RC lady as candidate. I have been to 2 meetings thus far, I am impressed by her sincerity and and Christian conviction and presentation, in conversation when I bemoaned her leader Godless Gillard, she responded,’ if I get elected I hope to change her mind and to be bridesmaid at her wedding!!’

    An admirable goal. She and the Liberal candidate, an upstanding man with 20 yrs in police force, drug prevention, surf life saving and chmbr commerce., they are as one in opposing the Greens (Pagan Party) in legalisation of drugs and late term abortion, Homo marriage and adoption. We are blessed with an excellent CDP candidate Graham Freemantle (CDM), and of course Paul Green for the senate.

    A lamentable state of affairs exists in the Uniting church as you will be aware. In a question I asked the Greens candidate, why did they not have the decency to answer the ACL questionnaire? I called them heathen and quoted homosexuality and abortion. The MC the Local UC minister, we were in his church, tried to cut me off when I mentioned Homosexuality as being anti Christian. The greens candidate said he was proud to serve under a homosexual leader, he went to a UC somewhere on the coast (candidate for Dobel), he was very fond of his Uniting Church minister a self proclaimed LESBIAN. God help us and save us from such apostasy!!

    I am glad to say the ALP lady agreed that the U.C were off the rails

    Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

    Whether you realise it or not we are in a spiritual war for the soul of this nation, and the souls of its people. The 2010 Federal Election is just one battle in that war, but a very critical one which will determine our future as a nation. The nation needs to turn back to the God of the Bible or suffer the consequences and God’s judgment. But the war and its battles belong to the Lord.

    On Thursday 5 August, a matter of a few days after undergoing the surgical removal of his gall bladder, Kevin Rudd publicly agreed to a request from Julia Gillard to support her and her government in their faltering campaign to be re-elected. It appears that he has chosen to agree to Ms Gillard’s request, rather than heed the publicly-expressed wish of his wife, Therese Rein, for him to follow the advice of his specialist doctor to take a couple of weeks post-operative rest.

    Be that as it may, Kevin Rudd has now chosen to support the woman who deposed him – a woman who is a professed aethist, who is unmarried in a defacto relationship, who is pro-abortion and a founding member of Emily’s List Australia, who is supportive of homosexuality, whose other far left wing beliefs are unknown to our nation, and who is presenting a pathetic and unrighteous role model to the women of our nation! And Mr Rudd has also chosen to commit himself to destroying the reputation and opportunity to become prime minister of Tony Abbott, a decent man of strong faith who stands firmly for righteous family values.

    On 6 August 2010, the day after Mr Rudd announced his chosen course, the Lord led me to Jeremiah Chapter 23, and I read the whole chapter which relates to the rebellion against God and the sin of the shepherd kings, prophets, and priests of Israel, both in and before Jeremiah’s day. Our governments are answerable to Almighty God who gives them the authority to govern our nation,states etc and its people. Where a prime minister, in effect a shepherd king, chooses to not seek God’s wisdom in ruling our nation( as Kevin Rudd did one week after winning the 2007 election), he becomes dependent on false prophets (secular political advisers) who advise him by speaking “visions and dreams” of their own hearts, and not from the mouth of the Lord. This whole chapter speaks to this current situation, but to me personally, two segments stood out:

    Verse 15
    “Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets:
    ‘Behold, I will feed them with wormwood,
    And make them drink the water of gall;
    For from the prophets of Jerusalem
    Profaneness has gone out into all the land.’ ”

    Verses 28-29
    “The prophet who has a dream, let him tell a dream;
    And he who has My word, let him speak My word faithfully.
    What is the chaff to the wheat?” says the LORD.
    “Is not My word like a fire?” says the LORD,
    “And like a hammer that breaks the rock in pieces?”

    Please read the whole chapter prayerfully yourself and see how the Holy Spirit speaks to you and calls you to pray.

    As I read this chapter this time the Lord reminded me of a previous occasion nearly ten years ago when He had me read this chapter ,Jeremiah 23, as His description of the political and spiritual leadership of our nation. He had me write and send a large warning letter to 500 top Australian leaders on 14 December 2000, a copy of which is attached to my 10 August 2010 email. In it He warned Australia through Jeremiah 23, Ezekiel 34, and Jeremiah 2: 1-13. The same words of Jeremiah 2: 11-13 He used on 30 June this year to start me on writing the Background Briefing to the 2010 Federal Election which I sent out on 4/5 July 2010, namely:

    “Has a nation changed its gods,
    Which are not gods?
    But My people have changed their Glory
    For what does not profit.
    Be astonished, O heavens, at this,
    And be horribly afraid;
    Be very desolate,” says the LORD.
    For My people have committed two evils:
    They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters,
    And have hewn themselves cisterns – broken cisterns that can hold no water.”

    So really the Lord is saying the nation has not responded to His warnings in 2000.

    On Saturday morning 7 August 2010 the Lord drew my attention to Psalm 94: 20-21:

    20 “Shall the throne of iniquity, which devises evil by law,
    Have fellowship with You?

    21 They gather together against the life of the righteous,
    And condemn innocent blood.”

    Several things came to my mind immediately. Verse 21 -Tony Abbott is standing for righteous family values and the Federal Labor TV election ads are aimed at destroying his reputation. And now Kevin Rudd is attacking him also. Federal Labor women are predominantly strongly pro-abortion, and abortion is the shedding of innocent blood.

    But the question of the throne of iniquity having fellowship with God – verse 20 – reminded me of the words of Pastor Lynne Klomp (co-founder Parliamentary Prayer Network) to the Government of God conference in Parliament House Caberra on 23 July last month, and our subsequent prophesying over Parliament House.

    During a panel discussion on Christian Leadership in Government Lynne shared that when the present Parliament House Canberra was being built, teams of intercessors prayed over its construction. One intercessor she knows had permission to go onto the site every Saturday morning and pray throughout its construction. This intercessor threw her father’s bible into the very bottom layer of the foundations of the building, and decreed that this Parliament House was founded on the Word of God!

    Lynne sought the Lord as to what He may be thinking as He looks at Australia in these current circumstances. She felt she was starting to get her answer as she read 1 Peter 2: 9 -…”But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people that you may declare the wonderful deeds of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvellous light.”

    She went on to say that if we are talking about Christian leadership in Government, that’s us! We need to remember who we are in Christ – “….the eyes of our understanding being enlightened that we may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at His right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come.” (Ephesians 1: 18-21)

    Ephesians 2:6 tells us that God has raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Lynne reminded us that the government is on Christ’s shoulder but that He has delegated it to us, and that as the royal priesthood in this nation we can legislate and decree what happens in this nation. She believed that God was waiting to hear from us.

    In accordance with election rules, when an election is called Parliament is prorogued, which means that all 150 seats in the House of representatives are vacated, and also half the Senate seats.

    Lynne’s point was that…… “all those seats are now vacant…but your seat (and my seat etc) in heavenly places with Christ Jesus, is not vacant, unless you walk away from it! We are still ruling and reigning with Christ in heavenly places and we can decree in the Spirit what is going to happen in this place, this Parliament House.”

    She then called us all to stand, and for all of us in agreement to take the final scripture in the book of Ezekiel…….. ” and the name of the city from that day shall be THE LORD IS THERE” , extend our sceptre and prophesy over this Parliament House, over the PM’s office, the Deputy PM’s Office, every other office in Parliament House, over the the House of Representatives, the Senate, every corridor, every nook and cranny etc that THE LORD IS HERE! … Lord, we stand in agreement as Your chosen priesthood, we prophesy and declare You will be here, and that You will be Lord over this nation.

    All those present at the conference did that loudly and vigorously in agreement. She encouraged us to continue to prophesy this over Parliament House and the nation when we are at home, when we see reports of the PM or the election on TV etc and persist in doing it. We need the presence of Jesus to live there.

    And Lynne reminded us of Psalm 5 verse 4:

    For You are not a God who takes pleasure in wickedness,
    Nor shall evil dwell with you.

    Every one of you who receive this email can have a part in this. If you are a Bible-believing Christian who believes that you are part of a royal priesthood and that you are seated in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, then please seek the Lord and ask if He wishes you to join with us from wherever you are in prohesying that THE LORD IS THERE in Parliament House Canberra, in every nook and cranny of it. If you live in Canberra, or visit Canberra, you could go in to Parliament House and do likewise prophesying THE LORD IS HERE.

    But please be clear on this ….I am calling you to prophesy THE LORD IS THERE…..I am NOT calling you to prophesy that a particular man or woman or political party will be in power there. I am NOT the Holy Spirit and only He, the Holy Spirit, may tell you to do that.

    In conclusion…..may I urge you and encourage you to –

    a. press in daily right up to and including election day, in proclaiming the Word of God, and in prayer in accordance with the five weeks of prayer for the election issued by the Australian Prayer Network…….and also as the Holy Spirit may lead you;

    b. continue to fast as the Lord may have led you to do;

    c. in addition to a. and b. above, participate in the 7 days of praise and worship from 6am Saturday 14 August to 6am Saturday 21 August, called by the Parliamentary Prayer Network. I sent you a copy of that both separately and also in the 2010 Federal Election Prayerletter on 19 July 2010; and

    d. cry out to the Lord to move the hearts of the men of Australia, both Christian and unbeliever, to rise up and take on the mantle of godly leadership and authority that Almighty God invested in them when He created them.

    With love in Christ Jesus,

    Kris

    Dear Daniel
    Glad to see that you are speaking up for truth and righteousness. I wrote to a friend of mine and told her that to support an atheist would be to support a person who does not believe in God. For a fool says in his/ her heart there is no God and in YHVH’s eyes Ms Gillard is a fool Also I told my friend that righteousness exalts a nation but sin brings shame to a people and so by electing this woman Australia will be elevating sin abve righteousness. I also told my friend to look at Ms Gillard’s Labour’s track record for dealings with Israel Ms Gillard will support Israel as long as it is conveinient to do so and I read in prophecies from your website from YHVH to Australia that He will bless Australia as long as Australia supports Israel. That a nation, people, church’s destiny is marked by how they treat Israel who is the apple of YHVH”s eye.

    A few nights ago I had a dream that a mass of people were running streaming in one direction and I felt it was Australia and the people were running away from the Lord they were following after that which is not of Him. I even spoke to or challenged one woman about abortion and said that in God’s eyes it was murder and she did not respond too well to what I was saying to her. I feel that Australia is turning its back on YHVH and our christain heritage.

    YHVH is using this election to test the hearts of the Australian people He will shake the nation through this election to see whether or not they will choose Him and righteousness or sin and the devil. The following is what I wrote to another friend in Australia I am now living in Christchurch New Zealand as the Lord had called me and my family here a year ago. I have been praying for the election and for YHVH’s will to be done in this election. So do not be surprised if labour wins as this may be the Lord’s will to deal with the nation to bring His judgement on the house of ‘God the apostate church the fat shepherds who abuse the flock and the nation. He will shake and shake the nation until it comes to a point where they will fall on their knees and call out in true repentence and seek Him for Himseld then He will hear from heaven and heal the land. He will also use Ilslam as part of His judgements upon the land, I once worked for Immigration and Citizenship and am aware of the masses of muslims coming into the nation, I am aware of the Inter Faith dialogues and the Onew World religion convention they held in Melbourne last year. Yeshua is coming back very soon and He wants His bride to get ready for Him that is why He is testing the hearts of His people to see where they are at with Him.

    Hi
    I just rec’d this email today, very interesting and insightful as to the state of the nation of Australia. Definitely the hand of God in this as He said through me at one of our Wed night prayer meetings, that the enemy will come in like a flood into Australia but He will raise up a standard and turn the tide against the enemy.

    He will bring salvation into our nation when it is the time for salvation to come after He has sifted and shaken our nation to its very core, He YHWH is trying the hearts of the people through the leadership of Australia and it is not pleasing to Him what is coming to the surface, He is refining our nation with refiners fire and the heat is just going to get turned up a notch or two more. He is going to refine the nation until He can skim off the scum, the dross that is there in the hearts of her people, especially the christain church or so called christain church, He YHWH is going to shake the nation so hard that He is going to bring it to its knees, to its knees in repentence and fear and trembling before Almighty God against whom they have sinned and then, only then will He turn back to Australia and forgive it of its sins. He is going to deal with Australia with how they are now treating His chosen people, He is going to bring such severe judgments upon the land it is going to be a fearful time as the economy is going to be shaken, the political parties are going to be shaken and judged, the climate is going to be upheaved, with such storms, fires, floods, earthquakes and plagues of epic proportiona as never seen before, all of this because Australia has started to turn her back on Israel and has started to listen to Israel’s enemies baying for her blood and giveing permission for protests against Israel and the burning of her flag and for politicians to cast our her diplomatics. YHWH is not pleased with this and as Australia wants Islam in preference to His people and in preference to His laws and ways He is going to give Australia over to Islam until such time people within the churches truly repent of how they have treated YHWH and His chosen people. When they have a true change of heart for His people and show kindness and love to them and to pray for them to be reconcilled bakc to their God, then YHWH will turn the tide of Islam back on itself and drive it into the sea and totally destroy its hold over Australia, then on that day will He save the nation of Australia in a day in a mighty revival.

    I only just got the above word this last large paragraph as I started writing to you, there is no mention of the connection between Kevin Rudd kicking out the Israeli diplomate and God’s dealing with Australia in what is written below. It is interesting that the church thinks that they are the ones to bring in a change but not consideration about what they need to do to be reconciled to God’s people the Jews and to stand and support them and to repent of the atrocities that the church has commited against the Jews down through the centuries. I believe because of our ANZAC link YHWH will not totally destroy our nation but will raise up those who will be like Daniels, Esthers and Deborahs who will pray and intercede as YHWH leads and to be staunch supporters in prayer and physical support of His people, that is why YHWH will in the long or short run spare our nation because of these people who weep for what He weeps for and who have a true heart for His nation and people and know the importance of Israel to Him and have His heart for Israel and the Jews, how Israle as a nation impacts upon the rest of the world and the christain church esp in the west. That everything from now on leading up to the time of Yeshua’s glorisous appearing will revolve around Israel, physically, spiritually and morally. God is now fast bringing His judgements upon those nations including Aust and possibly NZ who will oppose His people read Isaiah 33:3, 40:22-23 Isaiah 66: :2, 5 and Jeremiah 12:14-17.

    The church is missing the point Israel is the pivotal nation that whatever happens to her will impact on the rest of the nations, how the nations and the church treat Israel and her people will impact upon them for good or for ill, ie a blessing or a curse. God is moving swiftly now to judge and avenge His people and nation through, natural or man made disasters, economic collapse, govt collapse, climate change etc. We have seen over the last few months what has happened to people and nations who have crossed YHWH by going against His people and this is going to increase even more and any nation, people or church better tremble at God’s word and in fear of who He is before they try to take on His nation and to try and denounce them because He will act very swiftly in their defence, because by speaking against them they are speaking against YHWH Himself and His Messiah and He will not tolerate or brook this rebellion and insubordination anymore from anybody.

    This was part of email to a personal friend in Aust that used to meet with us when we lived in Lithgow for Wed nigtht prayer meetings, I left his name out for privacy reasons. This email was in response to an email another friend sent to me about what a pastor said about Gillard ousting Rudd. God allowed this happen because Rudd threw out an Israeli diplomate.

    Well keep up the good work you are doing for righteousness sake and Yeshua’s sake, may you be richly blessed by the Lord in all that you do for Him
    Blessings from Christchurch New Zealand

    Dear Ps. Daniel & Jason

    I learn from the verses you quoted. Maybe they are preaching a western style of gospel. To no offense to Ps. jason who is ethnic westerner.

    I have written my comment on City Life Blog. Read my comment. I think you should wait until he returns then speak to him personally. My female friends who belong to his church are voting for Liberal as they hear from the Holy Spirit. They cannot vote fora female fornicator who does not believe in God. I also wrote to ACL with a short note stating that they should not have invited PM there.
    Before I forget – my best Christmas present in 2006 was when the case aganist you was terminated out of court settlement. The Lord answered my (friends’) prayer.

    Hi folks at Catch The Fire Ministries.

    A short while ago, I received an email from Ps Danny re the forthcoming election. The email was about whether we vote for a self-confessing atheist, or whether we vote for a godly person. We were also admonished to be discerning regarding the true intents of the person; whether they were genuine or just pulling a publicity stunt in order to win votes. (Would they do that?)

    Australia has been blessed to have had successive governments which have ‘reasonably’ represented the wishes (biblical or non-biblical) of the people. (No – not ALL governments, but most.) However, over the last 30 or so years, we have seen a steady but systematically declining pattern in the government and its ability to truly represent the wishes of the people, regardless of which party (although one party does stand out more than the other, in my opinion). This has happened at both the state and federal levels. Here in QLD we have definitely seen a sad state of affairs!

    As much as I would like to simply lay all the blame at the feet of the governing party and/or the Premier, Prime Minister etc; I don’t believe that that is entirely fair or (politically) correct! (Ha ha.) It would be so easy to just dump the blame at the feet of whichever political party is in the road at the time! I think it’s fair to say that most of us like to ‘blame the other person’ and ignore our own faults, wouldn’t you say? I’ll be perfectly honest, if I can blame someone else and get away with it… but there’s the problem… I can’t get away with it… God has a way of catching up with me and exposing the issue and dealing with it. I just can’t get away with it! (Drats!) Have you ever found that?

    The government we get reflects the true heart of the people who elect that party or person… Come on, let’s face it… we are somewhat seduced by the supposed or portrayed character of the person! We do allow ourselves to be influenced by the person as much as by his or her rhetoric! When Kevin Rudd was elected as Prime Minister, many people said that he represented a ‘King Saul’ for this nation and that the nation voted on his personality. (What personality was that? I can’t remember seeing any ‘personality’. Must have missed it.) And once again, we are being treated with a presidential style election, where ‘personality’ seems to be the most important thing we must consider.

    My question is this: Doesn’t the leadership of the nation reflect the attitudes and heart desires of the people voting? If our attitudes are godly, won’t we get a godly leader as a result, and if our attitudes are not godly, won’t we get an ungodly government? This leads me to a further question: If we have ungodly leadership in our homes (and yes, I’m referring particularly to men here) won’t that be reflected in our governments as well?

    We’ve blamed school teachers, the government, government workers, public servants, the people down the road, the kids across the street, the next door neighbor’s dog (or cat) and just about everyone else… except ourselves… for what goes on in this country! No, not everyone votes Labor, nor does everyone vote Liberal/National… but can we continue to blame ‘those so-and-so Labor (or Liberal) voters’ for the mess this country is in? Or is it time we all had a good look at what’s in our hearts to see whether the government reflects everyone else’s bad attitudes, or do we have some attitudes of our own that are reflected in our elected government, whichever party that may be?

    I am not for one moment suggesting that we should not pray for righteous leadership, we should pray and we muct… but will that change the heart attitudes of the people of the nation? Should we not also be praying for every man (in particular – to take up his rightful position), woman (to take up her rightful position) and for children (so that they can be raised to their rightful positions) within the homes? Is it not true that the whole nation will be turned back to God if the hearts of individual people are turned back to Him? And is it not also true that the school system, the church system and every other system that has broken down, will be restored?

    Your comments would be most appreciated.

    Many blessings from your brother in Christ…

    Paul

    Dear Pastor Danny and team

    Last Sunday, I began to prophecy very strongly about the coming
    elections, and part of what the Lord said, was “if we miss this
    opportunity to rise up together to avert the anti-Christian
    parliamentary leadership, then it would take many many many years
    (generations) before the opportunities that we now have, come upon us
    again. We need to arise, stand strong, be of one mind and act together.”

    Blessings in His Wonderful Name. It was good to actually meet you here
    at Jamie and Cathy McNee’s church. Thank you for all you are doing. I
    was reading Daniel this morning, and was reminded about the stand that
    the four Hebrew children made in the face of enormous opposition, and
    also the faithfulness and belief of both Caleb and Joshua when they
    beheld the giants in the land, but beheld through the commission of
    Yahweh, their God. Great men. So few, among men.

    I do not know if it has been done, but it may be an idea to clearly
    set out guidelines for people in each state to vote, as most do not clearly know.
    Has a chart been drawn up? Just as a recommendation.

    God bless,

    Robin

    Dear Ps. Daniel.

    Christian Greetings and Blessings in the Lord.

    Years ago, you prophesied over my wife and myself in Launceston. Since then, we have always read your emails and watched as the Lord has constantly increased your boundaries.

    Thank you for being faithful to the Call and “full-on” in your endeavours for Him.

    Yesterday, 12/8/10, as we were praying for our nation, the Holy Spirit impressed upon us the verses from (Ezekiel 22:23-32.). They seem to be very appropriate at this time. We are praying from them and hoping that enough believers will indeed “stand in the gap!!!!”

    Verse 30 stood out to us. May we pass it on to you for your own encouragement. The N. L.T. version is particularly interesting – “I looked for someone who might rebuild the WALL OF RIGHTEOUSNESS THAT GUARDS THE LAND.”

    THANK YOU FOR “STANDING IN THE GAP”, dear Brother, and for being a genuine leader who is “REBUILDING THE WALL OF RIGHTEOUSNESS.”

    Yours in His Name.

    Rex and Joan

    Hi Jason and Pastor Daniel,

    My name is Janny, and I am in the Holt Electorate. I contacted all my candidates by email and asked them their religious affiliation, if any, and where they stood on the abortion issue.

    The only one that bothered to answer me was Ricardo Balancy, from the Liberal Party. His reply was: No one has the right to terminate life except for the Almighty, and to the question of religion he answered: Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life, and He washes away our sins.

    He’s got my vote.

    God bless you in the vital role you play in these last days when we can Silent No More!

  27. Audrey & Maurice

    Dear Danny, Thanks so much for this. We will continue on in prayer for the elections. Blessings. Audrey & Maurice.

  28. Louise

    Dear Ps Daniel

    Amen Amen Amen!! Everything you have mentioned below I have watched and listened to in the media and on the ACL news etc. with the same reactions!. You are spot on. Even the most uneducated person can clearly see and hear that an atheist PM who isn’t married and does not believe in God (yet, tells the media she is “praying” for Kevin Rudd in hospital . . . to…..the sun god perhaps?!!) then overnight turns around and aligns herself with meetings for catholics etc. Does she sincerely think we are all that stupid? Perhaps she is right, since the dumbed down education system is making the young generation so blind that they’ll believe anything and do anything! She is a puppet on a string pulled by the global elite and we are witnessing what you said: a betrayal of our Lord Jesus Christ because Christians are not standing up, taking responsibility and boldly declaring Truth!

    You will I am sure, be subject to ridicule for your stand but know that there are many of us who are praying for this nation that continues on it’s decline out of our Judeo-Christian heritage. I keep on hearing the verse that tells us in the end times good will be called evil and evil will be called good. As a new Christian in 2001, I use to ponder on this verse and wonder what on earth God meant in His Word but it’s clear to see that when you speak Truth, it is ridiculed. Praise God for courageous Christians like yourself! We will uphold you in prayer as you continue in your work.

    With every blessing

    Thank you, Pastor Danny, you give me hope.

    Its unbelievable; its heartbreaking: the seemingly willful ignorance of Green and Labour policy by some of our key Christian leaders.
    Am so thankful that there are pastors like you; encouraging their people to fast and pray for these crucial elections.

    I also, am praying for the strongholds of pride, independence and man-pleasing to be pulled down in our Churches.

    Bless you all.

    As clearly by the many inidicators we are in the Time of the Times
    which Daniel writes/ Amos instructs Tsunami Chap 10 Lift up the
    oceans of the earth as though in My Ladel, It is I the Lord who is
    doing this!.”

    x( I was woken to read these words of Amos on the 3 am morning of the
    TSUNAME 2002. I did not understand, until I re-woke at 0645 hours on
    the same day.

    Dear Pastor
    I believe we met in Qld at the Opening of the Christian Broadcast.
    If not . ……………. well Lord Jesus Yeshua knows.

    Truly, looking at PM. Julia Gillard, she is Master of words ot appease
    naive, speaks no principals nor Righteousness. In spite of her Welsch
    ancestory. For we all have Choice, to Believe, Seek and Find and
    Receive Son ship in Lord Jesus ; or at the time of Death or the Last
    Day to descend into the slide unto the eternal fires of DAMNATION
    WHERE THERE IS ONLY TORMENT.

    So who can we vote for: Mr Bob Brown comes in and goes out very brown,
    ‘ Abomination unto the lord, in The Word of the Lord’s writtings.

    Mr Abbott, A Rhodes Scholar and well trained in the art< as was Mr Howard> unto no talk, mixed talk, and agreement on all matters of
    importance to : decrease freedom, increase debt and world bank / World
    Government political Control.

    So what options do we have in Christ Jesus THE ONLY RIGHTEOUS
    MIRACULOUS POWER AND LIFE FROM HEAVEN, where He Lord Jesus sits on the
    Right Hand of His Father’s HAND. Yet many will turn from Christ JESUS,
    for other deceiving doctrines. e.g. the Uniting Church in north Qld.
    who took down their cross not to offend Islam……….. Be it on
    their backs.! or Show them Lord Jesus your suffering.a

    BLESS YOU FOR YOUR CLEAR ENNUNCIATION OF THE DIFFICULTIES OF THESE END DAYS.

    In the Lord Jesus Yeshua: Son of David, the ALMIGHTY GOD AND LORD.

    Hi
    Just thought to mention that YHVH is not on the side of either Gillard or Abbot but He is on the side of righteousness. As the angle of the Lord said to Joshua before the battle of Jericho when Joshua asked him on whose side was he on and He said neither I come now as captain of the Host of the Lord’s army see Joshua 5:13-15, God is on the side of righteousness because He is righteous and Jesus is our righteousness.

    As I mentioned in my email righteousness exalts a nation and sin brings shame to its people. People need to be fasting and praying and asking the Lord for His will to be done for these elections that the Lord’s name be lifted up and righteousness will be allowed to prevail. For people to prayerfully vote in the candidates that are righteous and are of YHVH’s choosing. If people listen and allow to be lead by His Spirit and vote for righteous candidates God will bless the nation if however they do not listen and vote for sin God’s judgements will come upon the nation.

    Most people in Australia do not know God do not have any idea who Jesus is and why He died nor do they understand the importance of the nation of Israel to YHVH and He is a covenant keeping God and He will keep His covenants as far as the land of Israel is concerned.

    This election is a crucial one and Australia is at the crossroads, the choice the people make at this time will determine Australia’s future, blessing or curse. Behold says YHVH this day I put a choice before you, will you choose blessing or curse, will you choose Me the God of Israel the one and only true God and Rock the One Whose name and nature is Holy or will you choose those gods that are not gods but are demons. Will you choose the path of righteousness which leads to peace and life or will you choose sin and depravity and decay which will lead to death. The people of Israel had to choose before they crossed the Jordan and after they crossed the Jordan River as to who they will worship and serve to choose YHVH their true God or to choose the gods of their fathers Egypt or to follow the false gods of the Cannanites. They were given the choice of life and death see Deut 30:15-20 and Joshua 24:14-15. YHVH is seeking people who will worship Him in Spirit and in Truth He is seeking a people whose hearts hunger and thirst for righteousness will He find such people in Australia. This election will surely test the hearts of the people to see where they are at especially the church.

    So much sin has entered into the church that the leaders no longer have any discernment between right and wrong, My people perish for lack of knowledge of the word of the Lord and there was a fannine of the word of the Lord in the land and it appears that there is a fannine of the word of the Lord in the land of Australia. Apart from pockets of believers whose hearts are with YHVH who are listerning to Him and are sounding the sound of the alarm on the Holy mountain to call the people to prayer and fasting and seeking God’s face as to His will to be done on earth as it is in Heaven. There is more at stake for Australia than just an election her spiritual destiny hangs in the balance in this election.

    I urge you brothers & sisters in the Lord to be listening to His Spirit and heed the warnings that He is giving to this great nation, He wants to bless the land but if people do not listen and blindly vote in whoever pleases them, their flesh and vote following the traditions of friends, family etc the nation will suffer. We are to walk in the Spirit and not the flesh to seek after YHVH”s kingdom and His righteousness, to seek after the ancient paths of righteousness. Our God is a Holy God and He will not be moicked. We must remember that Jesus is coming again very soon and He wants to take to Himself a bride without spot or wrinkle will He find such a bride in the nation of Australia?

    Hear my people what the Spirit of the Lord is saying and been saying in warnings to the nation and be obedient to the leadings of His Spirit.

    Yours in Christ
    Jennifer Bolton

    Dear Pastor Danny,

    Thankyou for confronting the cowardly spiritual pacifism among some compromising Christian leaders. I will endeavour to report to you on recent Education Minister Julia Gillard’s amendments to the national secondary History curriculum, after I obtain a copy. I understand it drastically downgrades the British and Christian heritage. I will endeavour to confirm this. Thankyou for your example of Christian leadership.

    Yours sincerely,

    G’day Jason

    Thanks heaps for all the great emails you send my way. The voting guide is good too but I’ve seen a few of them over the years.

    A while back I saw one for the Greens that said they were the party Christians should vote for as they best represent the biblical view of what God commands us to do.

    I’m not joking. I looked at the fine print down the bottom and it said it was put together by ‘the network of spiritual progressives’. This group contains some Christians but people from many other religions and philosophies too. It was being handed out at a ‘meet the candidates’ night in Dandenong and many Christian people were picking it up and reading it. Dodgy!

    Praising God for you mate.

    MARANATHA!

    Tony Abbot should stand by what he has said on abortion and so forth. He also should just remind people how many guilty people lawyers get off free when in the court room, people that go on to offend to the point of death. We are now seeing the real Julia – the Julia that can brazenly stand her ground against soldiers dying in foreign lands with not enough safety gear, people living in fear of burning in their homes not from bushfire but from a negligent government while wasting money on smoke and mirrors. People should also be advised that although Mr. Abbot might have gone a little too far with work choices he knows the competition we have from places like China and India and he also knows only too well that without bosses making a profit there can be no employment. Simple no boss, no job. Homelessness and despair. He was trying to keep the good ship ‘Lucky Country’ Lucky.

    Tony Abbot knows only too well that when the ‘luck’ runs out which it will without a clean efficient government we need a person that is willing to stand up for what he believes is right without bending to all and sundry just to keep office.

    Tony Abbot may not look of seem to be the latest fad but he is made of what made this country great; strong principles, strong beliefs and willing to look and seem unfashionable if he can help his country to remain strong, healthy and honest in a world that has gone mad on fads and gadgets.

    He knows that if the health system was so easy to fix then how come this state Labor Party has not already done it. If spending without thought of cost was the answer then how come people living on credit cards loose everything while paying through the nose before their intimate demise.

    I could go on but I think good old fashioned prayer is also the way to go. It has brought me through everything and I think a government that does not believe in and indeed takes to ridiculing God’s values needs to be taught a lesson in everything.

    Regards Fayre

    Dear Danny,

    I just wanted to send you Gods blessings and my appreciation for the email you have circulated ( and i have had forwarded to me) regarding the last and upcoming election.

    I am sure that you will cop much flak, as you yourself have stated, and that is why I wish to encourage you in your stand for Christ and a Godly government.

    I know many people believe that religion (for want of a better word) and politics should never mix. I myself can’t see how they can be separated.

    Anyway, being a person who speaks the truth, even when its not popular it is refreshing to come across others who do the same. Its always nice to get a ‘well done’ of encouragement among the critical responses.

    Your sister in Christ

    Dear Pr Daniel,

    I read your emails as they come, I take time to reply to this one, as the current circumstance which is unfolding is quite disturbing. Over the years i have visited many churches and tried to make them my home. To no success, this didn’t stop me from believeing or looking for a chuch home. At this point in time i believe that i have found a chuch home, even though my home has been my church for a long time. I migrated here at the age of 7(probably kicking and screaming not wanting to leave my nana). I came from Cambridge England, when we landed we were taken to a hostel…not what i was expecting, more like a chicken run. There were just the 6 of us. My parents and 3 brothers…Now at 50 i feel i can longer stay in my home…i have been called to step out of the boat…this scares me so. Not in fear but in i see what is happening is to be true…

    The path that is growing in front of me is going to Canberra…

    The seperation,abuse,ridicual,taunts,and anything else that has come upon me has been for this one time…Pr Daniel i tell you this as a beginning…knowing the unfolding sometimes is very hard, when you can’t step out of the boat and step i will…The Lord is moving in my home at the moment helping us to work together and not agaisnt each other.

    Well back to parliment, all we can do is pray for an amazing revelation to the people of Australia to realise that the path we are being led down is the wrong path…

    I thank the Lord for your amazing ministry, the techno that allows me to talk to you, and all things that are needed to do His Works and spread His Word…Part of the stepping out has had me doing a few different things, one being helping out at our local Adelaide Christian Radio Station Life FM, this has been many years in the works…

    Thank you for time
    In Christ i wait…

    Well done Pastor Danny.

    The Labor Green Athiest HomosexualAthiest alliance is the most dangerous anti-Christian leadership alliance this nation has ever seen. Christians needs to pray, act and vote to stop this alliance or we’ll all pay the price. An anti-Christian alliance like this is a disaster for this whole nation(not just iits Christians), our beloved ‘lucky’ country will be no more.

    God Bless,

    Australia has quite a history of public prayer. Here is a story from our
    more recent past, showing how important prayer is to Christians in
    Australia….
    In May 1988, a new Parliament House was to be opened in Canberra.
    A leak from Canberra suggested that there would be no prayers said at
    the opening ceremony. This prompted the largest prayer meeting in our
    country’s history. Christians came from the furthest reaches of
    Australia, by any means they could, until 50,000 had gathered. They
    carried the written prayers of another 65,000 Australians who couldn’t
    be there themselves. They came because they felt that the opening of
    the new Parliament House was the beginning of a new phase in
    Australia’s history, one that should not begin without prayer. They
    represented all states, all denominations, all ethnic backgrounds
    standing together and praying as one church with a common love for
    Jesus, together doing the one thing that unites all Christians -praying
    .
    Those 50,000 Christians marched around the new Parliament House
    until they formed a complete circle 3.5km around, 20 deep in places.
    They joined hands and prayed as one voice. The celebration continued
    into the night, under a sparkling Southern Cross, with singing,
    speakers and much more prayer -in fact, 20 hours of constant prayer.
    The day of the official opening of Parliament House by the Queen, saw
    less people turn up than had come for the unofficial opening before the
    King of Kings the previous day!
    Now, in 2010 , we are about to elect a new
    house of Parliament to rule over this nation, a
    house built of people, not of stone. Let’s not
    open it without prayer. Let’s not begin this new
    phase of our history without seeking the face
    of Almighty God and acknowledging Him in
    every part of the life of this nation, especially
    the leadership. Let’s pray often leading up to
    the election, committing the outcome, and this
    nation, to the God who has had His hand on it
    since the beginning of time.

    JULIA IS AN ATHEIST AND BELEVES ITS A WOMENS RIGHT TO END THE LIFE OF UNBORN CHILDREN-ABORTION.

    REMEMBER WHAT GOD SAYS IN THE BIBLE ABOUT ATHEISTS:

    Psalm 53
    1 The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good. 2 God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God. 3 They have all fallen away; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.

    JULIA IS AN ATHEIST-NEVER FORGET THIS

    Dear Pastor Danny,

    Three years ago, I met you at Mark Colbung’s “Church for all Nations”, when you came to Albany in Western Australia, for “Catch the Fire’. We have since moved to Northam, WA. I receive your emails regularly. Two weeks ago, I was playing my guitar and began to sing “Awake my bride, don’t you know what time it is”, and the Lord gave me a song.

    A few days ago I had this song burning in my Spirit and felt to share it with you. This morning I awoke with this song and again felt impressed very strongly to sing it to you, I guess particularly in view of current elections.

    Thanking you, yours sincerely,

    Caroline

    The church has been “socially correct” as to how they treat their fellow christians for decades, (and driving many people out of the/away from the church); maybe change should first start from within.
