2 Exciting Prophetic Words for Australia from Heidi Baker and Kathy Walters

Kathy WaltersRolland and Heidi BakerDear friends and family in Christ in Australia,

Following are 2 very exciting prophetic words for the Body of Christ in Australia, regarding great revival and harvest, by Heidi Baker and Kathy Walters from the USA.

Let’s continue to prayerfully trust the Father in Heaven for the fulfilment of these prophetic words from these great women of God!

Prophetic word for Australia given by Heidi Baker in Sydney at Jubilee International Church on March 16th 2010
 
“I have a word over Australia. I just feel like the river of God’s glory is increasing in this nation. I see Revelation 22; the river coming from the throne and of the lamb. I feel like God is going to increase His glory and his love and I feel like the way Australians are going to come to the Lord by the 1000’s and the 10’s of thousands they are going to come as the church lives like a family. And I see churches becoming homes of the loving believer. I see people being set free to be who they are.
 
I feel like fathers and mothers are going to be raised up and the lost children of Australia are going to come home to the Father and I feel like it’s as brothers and sisters, mothers and fathers, grandmothers and grandfathers and even little children go, go out to the streets, to the highways and the byways out, out, out, the Lord is sending you out, out, out and as you stop for the one, as you stop for the one in front of you, and you spend time with them, He says love looks like something, it looks like you spending time, like you drinking coffee with them, like you sitting in the park with them, like you embracing them in their loneliness and God is going to send the church out as lovers.
 
He says the river of His glory love is increasing and he says the nets will increase as the body of Christ networks together for the harvest. He says He is looking for a body that will be woven together by the love of God past denominations and movements, He said it will be past denominations and one brother will serve one another and sister a brother.

South Africa Hosts the Global Day of Prayer 2010

By Success Kanayo Uchime – Special to ASSIST News Service (ANS) – Friday, March 12, 2010

CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA (ANS) — Aside from the hosting of the famous FIFA soccer World Cup this June, South Africa is also making serious plans to host the world in the Global Day of Prayer (GDOP) as it celebrates 10 years of leading the world to pray.

It is slated to take place on Sunday, May 23, 2010, at Newlands Rugby Stadium, Cape Town, South Africa – the venue where it all started!

Speaking on the forthcoming event, Mark Anderson, President of the Global Pastors Network (GPN) and Call2All, said that last year, the Global Day of Prayer movement which was founded by South African businessman, Graham Power, has successfully mobilized every nation on earth to gather in large crowds and small groups to pray simultaneously on the same day.

He stated: “There is no doubt that the rising surge of the Global Prayer Movement and the accelerated Global Missions has become the greatest strategic alliance of our time. With Call2all in partnership with the Global Day of Prayer, I am inviting you to join me at the Cape Town International Convention Center for Missions and Business Network pre-conference and Network sessions, from May 19-22.”  (more…)

Some great testimonies of God’s mighty hand at work in Australia / Ps Daniel in QLD 8th-9th May

Dear family & friends in Christ,

We thank and praise the Lord for His mighty presence and wonderful love being poured out upon our nation of Australia, this Great South Land of the Holy Spirit!

During this past weekend at the meetings in Hallam (Melbourne) many lives were mightily touched by the Spirit of God, including 2 precious souls that were added into the Kingdom of God as they surrendered their lives to Jesus!

Pas Daniel preached the Word of God on Blessing and Judgment.  He stated that the church in general in Australia has lost the reverential fear of a holy and righteous God, and as a result the nation does not fear the Lord God Almighty as it once did. He spoke on Acts Chapter 4 & 5, where the body of Christ was in great unity and revival as many were experiencing the power and presence of God.  However, then Ananias & Sapphira lied to the Holy Spirit and were struck dead.

This exciting, very challenging and thought provoking message will be available soon on DVD. You can order your copy now ($20 includes postage) by emailing Angelene at angelene@reformationharvestfire.com or by calling the CTFM office on 03 9794 8211.

Following are 4 encouraging testimonies that we received over the last several weeks. (more…)

Many pray in Tongues for the first time, Healings & Salvations as Holy Spirit fire falls in Bellingen (Coffs Harbour), Canberra, & Hallam (Melbourne)

Praying at the altarSome of the youth were baptised in the Holy SpiritDear family & friends in Christ in Australia and around the World,

1) What an amazing weekend it has been with exciting reports coming in from 3 different locations across Australia of God’s mighty presence transforming lives over the ANZAC weekend!

Pas Daniel ministered in Bellingen in NSW on Saturday night and at 3 services on Sunday as many people travelled from the surrounding country towns of Newcastle, Kempsey, Eungia Rail, Macksville, Nambucca Heads, Urunga, Coffs Harbour, Torminna, and Dorrigo to catch the revival fire of the Holy Spirit  as God moved so powerfully in radically transforming lives for Jesus at all the meetings!

On Saturday night the service went on for almost 5 hours! On Sunday night 17 people (mostly youth and teenagers) responded to the altar call to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and within 7 minutes 14 of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and started praying in tongues for the very first time in their lives! Pas Daniel stated, “The youth were so excited, they were jumping for joy. This brought so much joy to my heart. This is the next generation being empowered to rise up for Jesus!”

A young man, who was known to some in the church as a real rascal in town, walked off the street into one of the meetings. He was radically touched by God and gave his life to Jesus on Saturday night. Pas Daniel prayed over him and gave him a BIG HUG. This somewhat surprised the young man and then he received a prophetic Word from the Lord. The next night he came for the meeting, sat through the whole service, then responded to the altar call for prayer, was filled with the Holy Spirit and prayed in tongues! He then approached Pas Daniel and gave him a hug. Glory to God as the supernatural transformation of this young man happened in just 24 hours! What a mighty God we serve! (more…)

Over the past several weeks the increasing outpouring of God’s Holy Spirit in Canberra, Australia has been experienced by many hundreds of people from all walks of life! On some nights at the revival crowds of up to 300 people packed the hall at Canberra High School.
 
Once again Monday night was glorious with spiritually thirsty people drinking from the river of God’s Presence while praising and worshipping Him for several hours at the altar!
 
Pas Daniel said, “It was like an army that had just won a battle, celebrating its victory, and on its way to Praying at the altarclaim a nation! I was so blessed to see so many young people absolutely drunk with the new wine of the Spirit of God, worshipping the Lord so freely with tears streaming down their cheeks.”
 
Many at the revival meetings in Canberra received prophetic words from the Lord. On Monday night there was a real anointing for spiritual battle and the people stepped right into intercessory warfare for Australia. There was also an amazing sense of God’s Agape Love pouring out into everyone present as people hugged each other as one big family.

Many testified of having supernatural dreams and visions over the past few nights, including Angels being empowered in the heavens to triumph over Satan’s demonic powers of darkness, bringing great revival and transformation to Australia! They saw that the corporate worship and praise given from the united body of Christ to the Lord Jesus Christ was a key for the Angelic hosts of heaven to be further equipped and empowered to reclaim Australia for Jesus!

Revival meetings in Canberra extended this weekend – Youth / Kids weep at altar – Healing, Deliverance & Salvation of Souls!

Worshipping the Lord at the altarDear family & friends in Christ in Australia and around the World,

1) All glory and honour to the reigning King of kings and the Lord of lords as He continues to increasingly pour out His Holy Spirit on all flesh!

Revival meetings will be continuing this weekend in Australia’s capital city of Canberra on Saturday 17th at 6.30pm & Sunday 18th April at 10am & 6.30pm.  The venue is the Canberra High School, Bindubi Street, Macquarie.

Pr Daniel has cancelled hisPastors and spouses at altar weekend schedule in Melbourne to get back to Canberra to continue ministering in the ongoing Revival of the Holy Spirit and Fire! We at CTFM and many others across the wider Body of Christ are in awe of what the amazing Holy Spirit of God is doing in our nation’s capital of  Canberra!

Pr Daniel stated, “In the past 13 years I have ministered in Canberra on several occasions, but I have never ever experienced such an open heaven in our capital city to see the supernatural manifestation of the Holy Ghost and power of God. On the contrary,  I have told my ministry team that Canberra is the hardest place to breakthrough in all of Australia as there has previously been such a spiritual darkness over this city. But glory to God we are beginning to see the light of the glory of God breaking through as the demonic powers of darkness are losing their hold over the Capital of our nation of Australia. What the Spirit of the Lord is doing right now in Canberra is very significant for the Body of Christ and all of Australia. As our capital city Canberra increasingly catches the fire of the Holy Ghost revival, I believe that the Body of Christ and rest of our nation will experience a great breakthrough for the advancement of the Kingdom of God. I pray that manmade structures of religion, tradition, and political correctness will not get in the way of God’s divine glory and presence coming down from heaven to transform the earth.” (more…)

The Priority of Praise

Woman praising GodCharisma Magazine – 23 February 2010 – David Morris 

God views praise and worship as high spiritual priorities. Praise, meaning “value” or “price,” is the proclamation of God’s importance or worth.

Many of the praise and worship expressions in the Scriptures were exhibited around David’s tabernacle and are still culturally functional for today. As defined in Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance, some of these Hebrew and Greek words are “ingredients” for the posture of worship and service to God.

Towdah is an extension of the hand. It implies a choir of worshipers lifting their hands (see Ps. 100:4).

Shabach is to lift the voice in a way that addresses someone of importance (see Ps. 63:3).

Yadah implies holding out one’s hands toward an intimate embrace. In this sense it is not an admission of surrender but of deliberate desire for closeness with God in worship (see Ps. 142:7).

Revival Ongoing in Canberra, Australia – Notorious Gang Leader / Drug Dealer Surrenders to Jesus

Catch The Fire MinistriesDear family & friends in Christ in Australia and around the World,
 
All glory and honour to Jesus the King of kings and Lord of lords for the ongoing Revival in Canberra, the capital city of Australia, in this Great South Land of the Holy Spirit!

Pr Daniel is still ministering in an ongoing Revival of salvations, deliverances, healings, miracles, signs and wonders in Canberra!

Tonight Tuesday the 13th of April the meeting will be held at the Canberra High School, Bindubi Street, Macquarie, at 6.30pm. Contact Pr Glen on 0414705847 for more details.

Yesterday, the consuming fire of the Holy Spirit swept through the place as many people soaked in the manifest presence of almighty God during the  worship service that went on for more than 4 hours. Although it was a Monday night, the place was packed out with people desperate for a life changing encounter with a miracle working God. Many people were asking Pr Daniel to stay in Canberra throughout the week to continue the ongoing Revival meetings, but unfortunately due to other commitments he will not be able to do so.
 
There was deep intercession and travailing in prayer as the holy presence of God gave people a real deep love for their nation of Australia. Many people reported that they could not sleep at night, as they were crying to the Lord of the harvest for souls to be saved.

Mighty outpouring of Holy Ghost in Canberra, Australia – Revival meetings extended for Mon & Tues nights

Pastor Daniel preachingDear family & friends in Christ,
 
1) Are we in Australia currently living in the end time outpouring of the Holy Spirit before the 2nd Coming of Jesus, which Smith Wigglesworth prophesied nearly 100 years ago?

Yes, we at CTFM and many others in the Body of Christ believe it is so, as our nation of Australia is beginning to experience an ever increasing and unprecedented move of God’s Holy Spirit!

Pr Daniel ministered in several revival meetings in Canberra over the weekend where the Spirit of the Lord did exceedingly abundantly above all he could ask or imagine! Many Christians from many different churches in Canberra stated, “We have never seen anything like this in our city!”
 
Each service went on for more than 4 hours as people were born-again into the Kingdom of God, and many others were healed, delivered, and set free from demonic spirits!  As many demonic spirits left the people, they screamed and shouted, and some people had to be held down by 4-5 people. Most people who had never seen anything like this were amazed at the power of God demonstrated in the meetings.
 
People just burst into intercession and warfare prayer at every meeting. The worship team from the Samoan church led the people into high praise and worship to the King of kings and the Lord of lords as people at the meeting were absolutely consumed by the mighty presence of the Holy Ghost!
 
Pr Daniel stated, “I am so excited to see God move so powerfully in our Capital City of Canberra. This is certainly God’s kairos time for revival and reformation in Australia. We cannot afford to miss this opportunity. I was so excited to hear the testimonies of lesbians and witches who were born-again and set free from their bondages. Jesus loves everyone. People are desperate to encounter the living God. I have never seen such a hunger for God in Canberra in the past 13 years I have come to this city. This is the first time I felt such an open heaven over the place. I believe with all my heart that our spiritual warfare prayer mission on Mount Ainslie from last October 2009 played a big role in seeing this breakthrough.”
 
Pr Daniel has postponed his return flights to Melbourne and has re-arranged his busy schedule in Melbourne to stay back for 2 more nights of revival meetings in Canberra as he feels that this is God’s kairos time for Canberra. Tonight Monday the 12th of April the meeting will be held at 6.30pm at the Pavilion Hotel at 242 Northbourne Ave. We will inform you of the venue for tomorrow night or call Pr Glen on 0414705847 for more details.

Some of CTFM family enjoying a picnic, cricket, and fellowshipPastor Rex Douglas from USADear family & friends in Christ,

1) We thank and praise our loving Father in heaven for this wonderful Easter weekend gone by, as we corporately celebrated with the wider Body of Christ in Australia and around the world, the sacrificial death and victorious resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ!

What a glorious weekend it was to see so many Christian believers and even some non-Christians mightily transformed by the resurrection power of the Cross of Christ and the anointing of the Holy Spirit at the CTFM apostolic centre in Melbourne (Hallam)!

I am sure you have many exciting testimonies to share of what the Spirit of God is doing across the nations!

The Good Friday Prayer Service followed by an all night prayer meeting saw more than 70 prayer warriors stay back to intercede for Australia’s transformation, with many who were still there crying unto the Lord at 6am the next morning!

On Easter Sunday the Lord ministered supernatural life, healing, freedom, hope, and restoration to many people gathered at the CTFM apostolic centre in Melbourne (Hallam) through His anointed servant Pastor Rex Douglas from the US. Particularly, many Christian believers were set free from generational soul ties, emotional traumas and offences, as the prayer altar was full with people pressing into the presence of almighty God for hours to drink the new wine of the Holy Spirit!

Don’t Try to Tame the Holy Ghost

Fire in My BonesJ. Lee Grady Newsletters – Fire In My Bones – 2nd March 2010

Too often the American church has tried to put the Third Person of the Trinity in a box.

Hundreds of years before the Holy Spirit was poured out on the early church on the day of Pentecost, the Old Testament prophet Ezekiel, newly anointed as a priest, got a free preview of how God would send the Holy Spirit to empower His people. The preview came in the form of a Technicolor vision that included a stormy wind, a cloud that glowed with fire, flashes of lightning and strange, four-faced cherubim that were empowered by God’s divine energy.

Ezekiel wrote of these heavenly creatures: “In the midst of the living beings there was something that looked like burning coals of fire, like torches darting back and forth among the living beings. The fire was bright, and lightning was flashing from the fire. And the living beings ran to and fro like bolts of lightning” (Ezekiel 1:13-14, NASB).

“Let’s not become so trendy and culturally relevant that we lock the Holy Spirit in a cage … so that He doesn’t mess up our scripted show” (more…)
