Greg Laurie’s Auckland Harvest Crusade Draws 21,000 People in First Large-Scale Outreach in 40 Years

by Michael Ireland : Jul 4, 2011 : ASSIST News

“The Kiwis are amazingly attentive and responded [to the Gospel] in a way that quite frankly shocked me.” -Greg Laurie

(Auckland, New Zealand)—In what has been billed as the largest outreach of its kind since Billy Graham visited New Zealand more than 40 years ago, evangelist Greg Laurie saw more than 2,500 Kiwis make decisions of faith recently.

Some 200 churches throughout the Auckland, New Zealand area watched and prayed expectantly from June 25 – 26, as they hosted the Greg Laurie: Auckland Harvest at Vector Arena—the largest outreach of its kind since Billy Graham visited the area in 1959 and 1969.

As if recovering from a drought, the people of Auckland exhibited an incredible thirst for the Gospel message of salvation presented, according to a media release from Laurie’s Harvest Crusade organization. (more…)

Holy Spirit fire falls in the Gold Coast and Deception Bay, QLD as demons flee and woman healed!

Pr Daniel ministering at the altarPr Daniel ministering on the Gold CoastDear family & friends in Christ,

We thank and praise our Almighty Father God in Heaven for His increasing presence and end-time outpouring of His Holy Spirit anointing to prepare the Bride of Christ for the return of our reigning King of kings and LORD of lords!

We desperately need the anointing of the Holy Spirit to lead every single church service, so we can experience the manifest presence of our Lord Jesus Christ and the miraculous outworking of the supernatural gifts of the Spirit of God!

Over the weekend gone by, Pr Daniel ministered in the Gold Coast and Deception Bay in QLD at two AOG Churches, where many who gathered to hear the prophetic Word of the Lord, were mightily touched by the presence of God and greatly challenged to rise up with the anointing of the Holy Spirit!

The altar calls were packed with people lining up for divine healing, deliverance and a supernatural encounter with Jesus, as many were mightily blessed as Pr Daniel prayed and ministered to them!

People from 17 different churches, including Catholic, Lutheran, Baptist, Anglican, Orthodox and many different Pentecostal churches, united as the Body of Christ at the Sunday evening service.

Also, many were greatly challenged and blessed to hear about the start of “Rise Up Australia Party – Keep Australia Australian”.

Despite 200 Murders, Iraqi Church Grows Strong

Anglican Canon Andrew White Thursday, 02 June 2011 – Felicia Mann - Charisma News Online Featured News

Most Bible-believing Christians would probably run from a church after one or two of its members were murdered, much less after witnessing 200 killed in the first six months of the year.

Indeed, many of the most fervent saints would abandon a congregation where bomb blasts are the norm and where saints are kidnapped on a weekly basis.

Despite these horrible realities, however, Iraqi Anglican Canon Andrew White says his Baghdad church is 4,000 people strong—and his members are among the happiest church-goers he’s ever seen.

“So many Christians have been killed,” White said in an exclusive interview with Charisma Publisher Steve Strang which you can watch below.

“Yet the church in Iraq is so happy—miraculously happy. The fact that the church is like this is incredible. And they’ve got a huge amount to teach us.”

Luis Palau Leads Unprecedented Evangelistic Campaign in France

by Colin James : Jul 11, 2011 : Luis Palau Association

The gatherings brought together civic and church leaders as never before, breaking down barriers and establishing relationships that will last for years.

(Marseille, France)—In a country that has resisted open proclamation of the Gospel for hundreds of years, God provided a much needed breakthrough this past week in southern France, focusing attention on the city of Marseille and the greater area of Provence.

Invited by 1 Meme Coeur, an organization made up of church leaders from throughout the region, world evangelist Luis Palau led historic evangelistic campaigns in the cities of Istres, Aix-en-Provence, and Marignane. The campaign culminated in a three day “Gospel” festival on Marseille’s crowded Plage du Prado beach.

Riding on the tails of France’s official Day of Music (June 21), and appealing to France’s affinity for Gospel music, the festival in Marseille helped reach 16,000 people with the Gospel. The festival included a clear Gospel message from Palau, as well as special musical performances by guest artists from throughout France and the United Kingdom. Palau was also joined by the 73-member Salem Baptist Gospel Choir from Chicago, led by Rev. James Meeks.

Why I Have to Speak Out on Gay Marriage

Tuesday, 12 July 2011 11:25 – David Aaron Richey Newsletters – Prophetic Insight

It is interesting to me that one of the greatest states in our Union, New York, has recently made legal the marriage of two people of the same sex. There is a lot of sin in the world, and along with God I am against all of it, to include any that may operate within me.

However, when something as profound as this happens in our nation and I barely hear a peep from people who call on the name of the Lord Jesus, that scares me.

I’m not afraid of the many disasters that are happening simultaneously in our world. I’m not afraid of all the wars that are currently raging on almost every continent on the globe. The potential for nuclear accidents globally doesn’t frighten me.

What terrifies me are good men and women saying and doing nothing when politicians we voted into office are making moral laws that contradict everything a Holy God stands for.

Fathers: Key to Their Children’s Faith

Sun, Jun. 19 2011 – By S. Michael Craven | Christian Post Guest Columnist

I am afraid that our culture in general has reduced the role of fatherhood (along with marriage itself) to something nonessential or unnecessary. Even many men today regard parenting as being primarily the mother’s role and somehow no longer associated with masculinity or “real” manhood.

Instead, many have succumbed to modern cultural caricatures-encouraged by feminist psychology-and the primitive label of hunter-gatherer, and thus assume that this is their main contribution to the family. As a result too many men, including professing Christian men, express their role as father exclusively in terms of financial provider. The fact is children are not looking for financial provision; they are looking for love, guidance, and a role model for what it means to be a man.

During the colonial period in America men defined themselves by their level of community involvement and fatherhood. Marriage and fatherhood were seen as being among the highest aspirations in a man’s life. Today the highest aspirations of men seem to be career success and personal leisure; and against these they seek to balance marriage and family.

Council approves CTFM building permit / RUA Prayer 11th Anniversary / Lord Monckton and Pr Daniel in Dandenong Weekly

CTFM team prayerfully dedicating new land to the LordPr Daniel and CTFM team dedicating new land to the LordDear family & friends in Christ across Australia and around the World,

1)It is with great joy that we bring to your attention that our local council in the South Eastern Suburbs of Melbourne has finally approved our CTFM building permit after applying for it more than one year ago!

We thank God for this approval which will allow us to start building our new place of worship!

We also want to thank the Lord for His provision as  we were able to purchase the land at a cost of $590,000/- in January 2011. We currently owe the bank only $ 60,000/- as we have paid off the rest. Thank you so much for your financial and prayer support. We hope to pay the remaining $60,000/- off to the bank by the end of this year.

However, we are now trusting the Lord for the finances to build the new sanctuary where hundreds of people can come and worship Him. This will possibly cost us around $ 1.4 million. We know where there is vision, there is always provision. Please pray and partner with us in this great vision to see our nation of Australia and the Nations come back to Jesus. (more…)

Why did I leave the word “Christian” out of the Rise Up Australia Party offical name?? By Pr Daniel

Pastor Daniel NalliahDear family & friends in Christ across our nation of Australia,

I have had some people ask me the question as to why I did not include the word ‘Christian’ in the official name for Rise Up Australia Party?

Let me share a few reasons as to why I did not do so. Please take some time to read this email with an open mind before forming an opinion. Also would you please take a few minutes to send us a response. Which would really be appreciated.

For example, if you want to buy a box of tea, you go to Coles and look through all the packs of tea.  Then you want to buy a particular brand as it is good quality, but as you read the label you find out that the proceeds go to promote communist ideologies. Would you buy that pack of tea?? Even though you wanted that brand of tea, you would not buy that particular pack as the label put you off.

Likewise there are many Aussies out there who have very good values, are passionately in love with Australia and want to keep Australia Australian. Unfortunately if I use the word ‘Christian’, I will quite possibly ostracize the rest of the community.

When we had to fight our defence in the court case when the Muslims took us to court in 2002, many good thinking and good hearted Christians contacted me and said that I must fight my defence based on the fact that Australia is a Christian nation. However, when I prayerfully sought the Lord, I strongly felt that we should fight our defence on freedom of speech.

Unity in the Body of Christ – Key for Kingdom Breakthrough / Pr Daniel of CTFM & Pr Mark of Citylife Church apologise to each other

Pastor Mark Conner of City Life ChurchDear family & friends in Christ,Our Lord Jesus Christ’s highly priestly prayer in John 17:20-23 states, 20 “I do not pray for these alone, but also forPastor Daniel Nalliah those who will believe in Me through their word; 21 that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. 22 And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: 23 I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.”

I thank our loving Heavenly Father for what He did last week when he brought together representatives of Sterihealth, Citylife & CTFM to address the issue regarding Sterihealth.

In this confidential meeting, I did not expect that the Lord would bring tremendous healing to our hearts and genuine reconciliation by His Spirit.

Certainly, last week was a great breakthrough in the Body of Christ for the advancement of the Kingdom of God, as Pastor Mark and myself connected heart to heart, to bring glory to our King of kings and the Lord of lords!

Following is a statement which Pastor Mark has recently put on his blog.

“One of the highlights of last week for me was a meeting a few of us had with Danny Nalliah from Catch the Fire Ministries. Thankfully, we were able to resolve some recent issues related to the SteriHealth company (see Danny’s recent BLOG post about this here).

Say No to Carbon Tax – Lord Monckton reveals the truth on global warming myth

Lord Monckton speaking to many RUA Party supporters at CTFM in MelbourneLord Monckton, Pr Daniel, Wife Maryse and some of the RUA Party Executive

Dear family & friends in Christ,

Lord Monckton, one of the world’s leading climate change sceptics, addressed a gathering of around 200 people at a public meeting hosted by Rise Up Australia Party – ‘Keep Australia Australian’ at Catch The Fire Apostolic Centre in Hallam, Victoria yesterday Monday the 25th of July at 7pm

Many travelled a long way to get to the meeting, as many people are desperate to know the truth about Global Warming, and in particular how the carbon tax will affect Australians. Following is the link to a very good newspaper article from the Greater Dandenong Weekly about his visit.

Climate change sceptic heads to Hallam

Pr Daniel also did an interview with ABC national radio on the religious program on Sunday night around 10.30pm. Although the interviewer wanted him to speak on the Carbon Tax from a Christian point of view, the interviewer constantly cut off Pr Daniel from sharing God’s view on climate change according to the bible.

Click Here to listen to the 10 minute part with Pr Daniel

Lord Monckton in his 1 ½ hour speech exposed the number of false data the government officials have used to hype the climate change debate in order to bring in the carbon tax. He also stressed on the point that Prime Minister Julia Gillard lied to the people. Before the last federal election she promised that there will be no Carbon Tax, but after she won the election she went back on her word.

His speech was very challenging and extremely informative. People were just absolutely shocked to know as to how the government has used false data in order to promote the Carbon Tax. He repeatedly stated  “CO2 has helped the planet to become greener rather than destroy it.”

CTFM, Citylife & Sterihealth meeting update

ReconciliationDear family & friends in Christ,

I am pleased to report that a meeting has taken place between representatives of Catch the Fire Ministries (CTFM), Citylife Church, and Sterihealth, in relation to the issue involving Sterihealth on which I have made a number of recent statements.

The meeting was conducted in a genuine spirit of reconciliation, in which each of the parties acknowledged that both CTFM and Citylife Church are wholeheartedly pro-life ministries. Because of the commercial sensitivity of details regarding Sterihealth’s business activities, the discussions were undertaken strictly on a confidential basis. (more…)
