Powerful Testimony – Deaf ear opens in Toronto, Canada / Pray for Pr Daniel’s Radio Interview and Further Ministry in Ohio & San Francisco, USA

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) All glory to our King of kings and LORD of lords, Christ Jesus, as Pr Daniel’s current ministry tour of US & Canada has been absolutely amazing so far!

I’m sure he will have a lot to share when he returns to Australia, but we thought that we’ll share this exciting testimony of a lady who was 100% deaf in her left ear, and how the Lord healed her last Sunday night in Holy Spirit miracle healing revival meetings in Toronto, Canada!

Pr Daniel preached the Word of God and then called out for people who wanted a healing touch to come forward as many people responded to the altar call. Among them was the Senior Pastor’s wife who was completely deaf in her left ear.

She had gone to many specialists first in Canada, then in the US, and their response was very disappointing, as they told her after several tests that they could do nothing to restore her hearing in her left ear.

She stated, “Watching and receiving emails from Catch The Fire Ministries in Australia greatly encouraged me to trust in God for my miracle. I read many reports of God using Pr Daniel to open up deaf ears and I was expecting my miracle. As I was on a church camp, I was only able to attend the Sunday night service and I trusted God for my miracle to come through Pr Daniel praying for me.”

Well, all glory to God, that miracle did come as Pr Daniel laid his hands on her ears and prayed, instantly the left ear opened up and her hearing was restored as the whole church erupted with claps and shouts of joy!

Following are two different video links, one of the lady receiving prayer and the other of her sharing her testimony with tears of joy.

Mitt Romney Delivers – Foreign Policy Speech From Israel

July 29, 2012 by Fox News Insider 

Mitt Romney today delivered remarks to the Jerusalem Foundation in Jerusalem, Israel. Read the full transcript below:

Thank you for that kind introduction, Mayor Barkat, and thank you all for that warm welcome. It’s a pleasure and a privilege to be in Israel again.

To step foot into Israel is to step foot into a nation that began with an ancient promise made in this land. The Jewish people persisted through one of the most monstrous crimes in human history, and now this nation has come to take its place among the most impressive democracies on earth. Israel’s achievements are a wonder of the modern world.

These achievements are a tribute to the resilience of the Israeli people. You have managed, against all odds, time and again throughout your history, to persevere, to rise up, and to emerge stronger.

The historian Paul Johnson, writing on the 50th anniversary of the creation of the Jewish state, said that over the course of Israel’s life, 100 completely new independent states had come into existence. “Israel is the only one whose creation can fairly be called a miracle,” Johnson wrote.

It is a deeply moving experience to be in Jerusalem, the capital of Israel.

Billy Graham’s Letter to the USA: “My heart aches for America”

Billy Graham (Aug 13, 2012)

“The farther we get from God, the more the world spirals out of control.”

Some years ago, my wife, Ruth, was reading the draft of a book I was writing. When she finished a section describing the terrible downward spiral of our nation’s moral standards and the idolatry of worshiping false gods such as technology and sex, she startled me by exclaiming, “If God doesn’t punish America, He’ll have to apologize to Sodom and Gomorrah.”

She was probably thinking of a passage in Ezekiel where God tells why He brought those cities to ruin. “Now this was the sin of . . . Sodom: She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed and unconcerned; they did not help the poor and needy. They were haughty and did detestable things before Me. Therefore I did away with them as you have seen” (Ezekiel 16:49–50, NIV).

I wonder what Ruth would think of America if she were alive today. In the years since she made that remark, millions of babies have been aborted and our nation seems largely unconcerned. Self-centered indulgence, pride, and a lack of shame over sin are now emblems of the American lifestyle.

Just a few weeks ago in a prominent city in the South, Christian chaplains who serve the police department were ordered to no longer mention the Name of Jesus in prayer. It was reported that during a recent police-sponsored event, the only person allowed to pray was someone who addressed “the being in the room.” Similar scenarios are now commonplace in towns across America. Our society strives to avoid any possibility of offending anyone—except God.

Yet the farther we get from God, the more the world spirals out of control.

Team USA Athletes: 10 Christian Olympic Medal Winners Glorifying God

By Christine Thomasos , Christian Post Reporter – August 10, 2012

Christian athletes were a major part of the 2012 Olympic Games in London, and Team USA’s athletes managed to bring home multiple gold, silver and bronze medals across a wide range of sports.

Although many athletes utilized their faith while training and competing, here are 10 Christians who managed to bring home a coveted medal from the Olympic Summer Games.

1. Gabby Douglas, Gymnastics, 2 gold

Gabby Douglas may only be 16, but she took the world by storm when she became the first African-American gymnast and first woman of color to become the individual all-around champion in Olympic history. While some debated about Douglas‘ choice of hairstyles, the gymnast went on to win gold medals in both the individual and all-around team competitions while glorifying God in the process.

“We are the 2012 London Olympic Gold Medalists!!! We are all so happy right now,” Douglas wrote on her Facebook page after winning big. “It’s a dream come true! Gotta give God the Glory! Thank you everyone for praying for me!”

While Douglas has spoken to the media about praying before her competitions, she decided to tweet before winning a gold medal for her all-around competition.

“Let all that I am praise the LORD; may I never forget the good things He does for me,” she tweeted.

The Persecution of Pakistan’s Christians

Posted by Faith J. H. McDonnell Bio ? on Jun 29th, 2012 

“The People of the Book” is Islam’s distinctive name for non-Muslim monotheists such as Jews and Christians. It sounds like a title given to those respected and revered. Unfortunately, the opposite is true. “Protected People,” another such term, sounds so reassuring. Who doesn’t want to be protected? But for the Islamic world’s “Protected People” there is no protection.

Nowhere is this truer than for Pakistan’s tiny minority Christian population. Rather than being protected, Pakistani Christians are disadvantaged and victimized in every way. Dhimmis, treated as second-class citizens, they live with grinding poverty and Muslim contempt, deprived of education and employment opportunities. Vulnerable to threats and lacking the means to defend themselves, they are the inevitable targets of Islamist attacks, even victimized by those who are supposed to protect them, merely because they are Christians.

Christians in northern Pakistan, such as the precarious Afghanistan-bordering Northwest Frontier Territory Province (now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa) and Punjab Province have long suffered and continue to suffer oppression and persecution. But increasingly, Christians in southern Pakistan’s Sindh Province are being persecuted under the “Talibanization” of Karachi. Afghani and Pakistani Pashtun militants that have been flooding Pakistan’s largest city forthe last few years are causing problems for the whole city, but especially for the impoverished, minority Christian community. They and other Islamists subject southern Pakistan’s Christians to horrific violations of their human rights and dignity.

Prophetic Day in Cuba: 10,000 Attend First Open-Air Evangelistic Meeting in Island’s History

Meredith Hodge : Jul 2, 2012 : Bright Hope Church/Christian Newswire

Today is a prophetic day in this nation. In the same place Christopher Columbus announced that this was the most beautiful land human eyes had seen, now we speak upon the same land—but this time, in the true freedom of Christ. What you have seen today is as if the heavens opened to declare that Jesus is the Son of God, with whom He is pleased.” -Bishop Ricardo Pereira

(Hoffman Estates, IL)—On June 15th, Bright Hope’s church partners in Cuba held their first outdoor evangelistic meeting in recent history with 10,000 people reported in attendance.

Outdoor Revival in Cuba Crowds from the city of Santa Lucia located in the district of Rafael Freyre in the Holguín Province of Cuba overflowed the large public square. The sky turned black, clouds started to roll in and lightning hit the ground as the event was about to begin. Spectators opened their umbrellas to prepare for the storm, but Believers started to raise their hands to the sky in worship. (Photo Courtesy: Bright Hope Church) 

One Christian replied, “Our God isn’t going to let this storm happen; it’s been a long time we have waited for this revival.” His prayer was answered and the storm passed. The local pastor’s wife, Mariza Proenza, said, “The hand of God covered the city!”

Black Pastors Lay Down Gauntlet to Obama Over Same-Sex Marriage

By Paul Stanley , Christian Post Reporter – July 3, 2012

The Coalition of African American Pastors demanded on Monday that President Obama meet with the group to address his stance on same-sex marriage. So far, the White House has refused to acknowledge the group’s request but leaders say they plan to “turn up the heat” by asking black Christians to sit on the sidelines for the time being.

“We have requested a meeting with President Obama and until he meets with us, we are going to ask black Christians to withhold their support until he personally hears our concerns,” the group’s spokesperson, the Rev. Bill Owens, told The Christian Post on Tuesday after Monday’s press conference in Nashville.

“More than anything, this is an issue of biblical principles and President Obama is carrying our nation down a dangerous road. Many African Americans were once proud of our president but now many are ashamed of his actions.”

Owens said the group hasn’t received a response from the White House and they are growing frustrated with each passing day.

“We can’t compete with the Hollywood folks who are raising the big bucks for the president,” Owens said. “But it was black folks who rallied around him in 2008 and for him to ignore our request with a group of clergy who represents tens of thousands of black Christians of many denominations is an insult.”

Great Outpouring of Holy Spirit in Canberra / RUA Party first meeting ACT

Dear family and friends in Christ,

1) We praise and thank God for a wonderful weekend of Holy Spirit ministry in Canberra, as Pr Daniel ministered at three revival meetings in two different churches on Sunday the 5th and also shared the vision of Rise Up Australia Party on Sat 4th August.

At the Rise Up Australia Party meeting, Pr Daniel also the National President of RUA Party, shared the vision God gave him for Australia, and how Rise Up Australia Party will play a big role in it. As the people heard of the RUA Party slogan “Keep Australia Australian”, there was spontaneous clapping and great excitement amongst those who had come to the meeting!

As the RUA Party policies and principles were read out, people shouted and cheered with much excitment. The meeting was also attended by the NSW State President Peter Madden. He too briefly shared why RUA Party will make a difference in Australia. The people were just absolutely thrilled to hear that RUA Party will be contesting the 2013 Federal Election.

Over the weekend many people signed up and took membership with the political party. Also a RUA Party State Team was set up to lead operations in ACT. Most amazingly, almost in every single state and at the first National Executive meeting, 12 members formed the executive. This was unplanned and very much to the surprise of those present. It has happened right across the country! We give thanks to the Lord that 12 is the number for ‘God’s Government’ in the Word of God. We believe that this is really supernatural as it is God’s governmental authority!

The services at New Connection Church and the Philippine Church were just absolutely wonderful on Sunday. The presence of the Holy Spirit was so powerfully present at every single meeting and many were mightily touched by God!

CHINA DETAINS DEFIANT CATHOLIC BISHOP

Leslie Hook, Published: July 11

BEIJING — Tensions between Beijing and the Vatican are mounting after Chinese authorities detained an outspoken Catholic bishop who has defied state control of the church, a move that highlights the Communist Party’s deep mistrust of religious organizations.Bishop Thaddeus Ma Daqin was whisked away just hours after he announced his resignation from the leadership of the Patriotic Catholic Association, or PCA, the government body that controls China’s state-sanctioned version of the Catholic Church, according to two people close to the PCA.

Ma, whose ordination had been supported by both Beijing and the Vatican, made the announcement during his ordination ceremony on Saturday in the St. Ignatius Cathedral in Shanghai.

In a snub to the authorities, he said he would immediately quit his duties in the association to focus on his new role as auxiliary bishop of Shanghai, one of the largest dioceses in China. (more…)

AUSTRALIAN PASTOR CRITICIZED FOR POSTING ‘ADAM AND STEVE’ MARRIAGE MESSAGE AT CHURCH

By Stoyan Zaimov , Christian Post Reporter – July 20, 2012

An Australian Baptist pastor has come under criticism for posting what are being called homophobic messages on his church windows – although he has said he is solely expressing his opinion on what the Bible says of human sexuality.

The Hamilton Baptist church in Australia, where the Rev. Trevor Walmsley preaches, displayed electronic messages on the side of the sanctuary reading “You are here because God created Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve,” and another reading “None of us owe our existence to same-sex sexual relationships”.

A number of local residents who read the messages were “outraged,” News.com.au reported, but Walmsley was quick to explain that the signs represent his views, and not necessarily those of the church.

“I suppose they are a bit controversial, but I am very much in support of marriage as it has been traditionally known,” the Australian pastor said. “I can’t speak for the denomination but for me personally, and probably for our church here, we would stand for the traditional definition of marriage of a man and a woman for life, to the exclusion of all others.”

JEWISH RIGHTS GROUP TO ISRAELI MK: APOLOGIZE FOR RIPPING BIBLE

By Ethan Cole , Christian Post Reporter – July 19, 2012

One of the largest international Jewish human rights organizations is calling on the Israeli parliament member who ripped pages from the Bible to apologize.

“There is no excuse for abusing the sacred scripture of any other religion,” said Rabbi Abraham Cooper, the associate dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, and Rabbi Yitzchok Adlerstein, director of interfaith affairs at the center, in a statement Wednesday.

“Israel from its inception guarantees religious freedoms and mutual respect for holy sites and objects of all its citizens. Israelis of all persuasions and backgrounds welcome the friendship and support of members of all faiths,” Cooper and Adlerstein said. “Thank God Israel is not Saudi Arabia, where keeping a Christian Bible, let alone a Torah, Talmud or Siddur is a criminal offense. We urge MK Ben-Ari to apologize for his act and to find appropriate ways to strengthen Jewish identity and loyalty”. (more…)

Brad Pitt’s mom slams Obama on abortion

by Patrick B. Craine

SPRINGFIELD, Missouri, July 6, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) – Brad Pitt’s mother has shocked the Hollywood star’s fans after slamming President Obama for his views on abortion and same-sex “marriage” in a letter to the local paper in Missouri.

Jane Pitt says Obama is “a liberal who supports the killing of unborn babies and same-sex marriage” and urges voters to back Republican candidate Mitt Romney.

“Any Christian who does not vote or writes in a name [that isn’t Romney’s] is casting a vote for Romney’s opponent, Barack Hussein Obama – a man who… did not hold a public ceremony to mark the National Day of Prayer,” she wrote in the Springfield News-Leader.

An editor’s note at the bottom of the July 3rd letter on the paper’s website says that after some confusion, they have “verified the letter writer is the mother of actor Brad Pitt and local businessman Doug Pitt.”

Obama has been labeled the “abortion president” because of his radical views on the “right to choose”. His pro-abortion views are so extreme that he has even opposed protections for victims of failed abortions who are born alive.

Israel Sunday at CTFM packed with powerful testimonies / Rise Up Australia Prayer in Melbourne this Fri 3rd Aug

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) On Sunday we had a glorious time in the presence of the Lord as several of those who went on the trip to Israel and Sri Lanka came to CTFM church in Hallam to share their testimonies of what God did in their lives on this tour.  There were testimonies of tremendous healing, restoration and how the Lord mightily touched their hearts! Following are 2 very powerful testimonies.

THE DEMON OF DEATH IS GONE! HALLELUJAH! ALL PRAISE AND GLORY AND HONOUR TO OUR GREAT GOD ALMIGHTY. THANK YOU JESUS!

I have been battling depression for all of my adulthood. I was raised in a Christian family and have always been a believer in Jesus Christ and worshipped Him. My own personal journey with Jesus started when I read the whole bible at 16 years old. So how could a Christian be suffering depression to the extent of being suicidal?? I knew it was not right to want to die or to commit suicide [and it was only God that saved me from doing this] but I couldn’t seem to help the way I was feeling – I was convinced that death was the only way out and only option for my torment to stop. 

It was like I didn’t have control over my mind or feelings, and I was a professional at distancing myself from people so no one really knew what was going on. I went on the CTFM Israel/Sri Lanka 2012 tour. We all had an amazing time in Israel but I still was suffering and fighting the severe symptoms of depression.

Miraculous Healing of Breast Cancer (This testimony was read at a meeting in Sri Lanka, before Pr Daniel preached)

It’s winter now in Melbourne with morning temperatures barely reaching two digits, but every other week my husband and I wake up early on a Sunday morning and drive right across town to Hallam, for the morning service a Catch the Fire Apostolic Centre. The service lasts three hours and is totally different to the Sunday mass that we regularly attended in our local Catholic Church. The one hour mass at the parish church was “fitted” into our week’s busy schedule and was frequently irksome and often a chore. Extraordinarily the service at Catch the Fire which takes not one hour but a full morning is something we have come to look forward to and recognise as the high point of the week.
