Gold Coast & Brisbane great success / Perth Catching the Fire / RUA Prayer Melbourne this Fri / Live webcast with Pr Daniel on Sun 9th Dec

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) Several weekends ago, Pr Daniel ministered in the Gold Coast & Brisbane, which was a great success as many were mightily touched by the power of God!

In the Gold Coast at the Rise up Australia Party meeting on Friday the 23rd of Nov, Pr Daniel addressed a public gathering at the Southport Workers Club. The RUA Party QLD State Exec was very encouraged as around 80-100 people attended the meeting. The RUAP Gold Coast branch did a fantastic job in organizing this meeting. All who gathered were very challenged and greatly encouraged through Pr Daniel’s speech. As he finished the speech, people stood up, started clapping and would not stop!

On Sat & Sun, the meetings in 3 different locations in Brisbane were just glorious! Many responded to the altar call and received a mighty touch from God. Sunday night was possibly the highlight of the weekend as the church in Redcliff was packed out with people from many different churches. At one point while Pr Daniel was speaking, the presence of the Holy Ghost fell in the meeting so powerfully that the people got up, shouting, clapping, speaking in tongues and some were weeping!

Some people gathered described it as a “Holy Ghost explosion!”  It was just absolutely wonderful with people rejoicing and shouting for joy as Pr Daniel shared the vision to take Australia for Jesus. The meeting went for almost four hours, but the people were just glued to their seats, as the presence of God was so great! This church meets every day at 6am to pray for revival.

People were greatly excited to hear the news of RUA Party. As they heard the slogan “Keep Australia Australian”, they started clapping. Many signed up for membership. Many others stated, “Thank God for the hope He has brought back into our lives!”

Last Sat, the RUA Party Candidate Training Day for Victoria went very well, with around 25-30 potential candidates in attendance. We thank the Lord for a mighty army of men and women of God who are getting ready to storm parliament in order to protect our Judeo-Christian Heritage and Keep Australia Australian!

2) All glory to God for His Holy Spirit revival fire outpouring over the last several weekend in Perth at 4 different churches (Pro-Israel and Miracle Healing Meetings) where Evangelist Jason ministered the prophetic Word of the Lord, as more precious souls were born-again into the Kingdom of Heaven (including many children and young people), with many others healed, delivered, set free, restored, revived, transformed and revolutionised by the manifest presence, glory and love of our Almighty Father in Heaven!

People at every service were fired-up about Rise Up Australia Party as they took many brochures to hand out to their families, friends, neighbours and others.

God Is on Your Side

If the Lord had not been on our side when men attacked us … they would have swallowed us alive. … Praise be to the Lord, who has not let us be torn by their teeth. —Psalm 124:2-3, 6

Do you know what it is like to have somebody physically attack you? The trauma is one that, humanly speaking, you don’t overcome easily. Or perhaps you have been verbally attacked. You know the awful feeling when somebody points a finger of blame at you.

The Lord’s people in this psalm were the objects of anger. It is very frightening to be near someone who is angry. Perhaps you live in constant fear of a co-worker’s temper or the angry outbursts of a loved one. You know how it feels to live in a situation from which you wish you could be delivered.

The truth is, your real enemy is the devil. The devil’s work is to cloud your mind. He can come as an angel of light; that means that he will work through someone who has the appearance of being very righteous, a person of integrity, a person who is believable. Or he may come as a roaring lion.

Egyptian Christian Evangelist Packs Out Westminster

Peter Wooding (Oct 29, 2012) – Source: ASSIST News Service

“I believe that if the Believers unite together in prayer and commitment we could see a great revival. We need to stop running to the hills in white robes, but do everything we can to tell the world about Christ before He returns.” -Dr. Michael Youssef

(London, England)—At a sold out International Evening at Westminster Chapel Saturday October 20, “Leading The Way” Founder and President Dr. Michael Youssef, challenged everyone to urgently occupy themselves with the work of the Lord, before the return of Christ.

“We need to stop running to the hills in white robes, but do everything we can to tell the world about Christ before He returns,” Dr. Youssef told more than 1,000 Leading the Way supporters and listeners at the event which was hosted by Premier Radio.

Travelling straight from Australia where he shared the same message based on Luke 19 where Jesus says ‘Occupy til I come,’ Dr. Youssef’s timely challenge highlighted the dangers of people predicting the times and dates of Christ’s return.

“Just seeing the urgency of the time should not just make us sit there and count the days but really get busy witnessing and serving and getting involved in global evangelism, which is what “Leading The Way” does,” said Dr. Youssef who is set to celebrate 25 years of worldwide Christian ministry.

Gay Marriage Push Should Be Abandoned, Say 71 Percent of Britain’s Tory Party Grassroots Members

By Daniel Blake , Christian Post Contributor October 8, 2012

British Prime Minister David Cameron should drop his proposals to redefine marriage, according to a poll of his grassroots Conservative Party members.

The ComRes poll was commissioned by the Coalition for Marriage and found that a massive 71 percent of Conservative constituency chairmen believe Cameron should abandon his aggressive push to amend the definition of marriage of between one man and one woman.

The poll has also found that 47 percent of those polled believed that Cameron’s liberal stance on gay marriage had come at a cost to the party.

Furthermore, more than 70 percent believed that Cameron’s push for same sex marriage regardless of what others felt had damaged the prime minister’s standing in the party. Only 11 percent believed that his liberal agenda had enhanced his reputation within the party.

Newspaper article about CTFM & many local residents opposing the building of very large mosque

Dear family & friends in Christ,

We at CTFM bought a block of land (one acre) in order to build our new church premises, but to our surprise, we were informed by the local council of a plan to build a very large mosque on the adjoining 3 blocks (three acres) right next to us.

Given the 5 year court battle CTFM had with the ICV (Islamic Council Victoria) and won by appeal in Supreme Court, our board of directors and congregation have taken a stand against the mosque planned to be built right next to our new church premises.

We have already received approval from the local council, and will start our building project soon. Thank God there were no complaints against CTFM building project by the local residents.

However, there have been many complaints against the mosque by much of the local community.

Please read the article below which appeared in today’s local newspaper and continue in daily prayer as our battle is not with flesh and blood, but with spiritual forces of darkness

Mosque for Doveton plan irks church – Dandenong Journal – by Cameron Lucadou – Nov. 16, 2012 

ANTI-ISLAM crusader Daniel Nalliah and his evangelical Christian church are set to fight a plan to build an 11.5-metre-high mosque in the same street.

Mr Nalliah, a pastor at Catch the Fire Ministries, said his church was weeks away from building a $2 million base at 25 Green Street, Doveton.

He recently learnt of a planning application by an Afghan community group to build the Omar Farooq Mosque next door.

The church, along with more than 100 petitioners including adjoining residents, will formally object to Casey Council over the mosque proposal.

Wake Up, America: Advice from a Pakistani Christian

Charisma News –  10/3/2012 J. Lee Grady

 My friend Amir is a marked man. I can’t even use his real name because Muslim extremists in his native Pakistan want to kill him.

Last month while Muslims were burning churches and murdering Americans in the Middle East to protest a low-budget film about Islam, I spent a few days with Amir, who attends Bible college in the United States. Raised a Presbyterian, Amir’s belief in Jesus puts him in the minority in Pakistan.

Amir has seen anti-Christian violence erupt in his country many times. When he was a boy, a classmate boasted of starting a fire that burned an entire Christian town. In 2010 terror hit the city of Faisalabad when two pastors were accused of blaspheming Muhammad. Assassins shot and killed both pastors while police watched.

In August of this year a Christian girl in Pakistan was arrested and accused of desecrating a copy of the Quran—a capital offense under Islamic law. Later, after a Muslim cleric was arrested on charges of framing the girl, local Muslims continued to call for her death—along with anyone who defended her. One Muslim from the girl’s village was quoted by reporters as saying: “Pour petrol and burn these Christians!”

I interviewed my friend Amir to gain insight into how Americans should view this growing conflict. He put things into perspective with these three points:

1. Realize that God is moving in powerful ways in Islamic countries. Despite the violence we hear about daily, all the news is not negative. Muslims are coming to know Jesus—often because of supernatural demonstrations of the Holy Spirit. Amir’s family witnessed a miracle in 2005 when his younger sister was healed of total blindness. They began attending a Pentecostal church and now have helped plant three congregations.

Reports of church growth, conversions and evangelism campaigns are not aired on network television, but they are widespread—in Iran, Pakistan, Turkey and other Islamic nations. “It is true that a lot of Muslims want to learn about Christianity,” Amir says.

Franklin Graham Evangelizes Nearly 100,000 in South Sudan

Charisma News – Bob Paulson – BillyGraham.org (BGEA)

“Hope for a New Nation” brought the gospel home to nearly 100,000 people Friday and Saturday at John Gerang Memorial Park in Juba, and the people received the message with joy.

Both days began in sweltering heat, with the sun beating down on the thousands in attendance. People found shade where they could, or used umbrellas or even a washcloth on their heads to fight the heat.

In spite of the heat, the 500-member choir sang for more than a half hour straight in a jubilant offering of praise to God that had many in the crowd swaying and dancing as well.

As the sun sank lower, offering relief from the heat, The Tommy Coomes Band and Dennis Agajanian also presented songs of praise. Then Franklin Graham preached from the Word of God: The story of Bartimeus the blind man on Friday, and the story of Zacchaeus the tax collector on Saturday.

These are simple stories of how God met people in their need, but God obviously drove the message into hearts. Both evenings, when Graham gave the invitation to receive Christ, people young and old alike ran forward to the platform. Over the two nights, more than 6,270 responded to the invitation.

As the inquirers were being counseled on Saturday, Bishop James Lagos Alexander, national coordinator for the Festival, said: “I think this is a great feeling. And it’s telling me that God is answering our prayers.

“And today, it’s wonderful. So God is reigning in this nation. God is blessing this nation. God is pouring in and bringing hope to this nation. And God’s Name will be exalted. And South Sudan is not going to be the same. God has visited us yesterday and tonight, and we’re not going to be the same. And the churches of this land are not going to be the same. Praise the Lord. May His Name be praised!”

Denzel Washington Describes ‘Tremendous’ Experience With Holy Spirit

By Christine Thomasos , Christian Post Reporter – September 18, 2012

Cast members Ryan Reynolds (R) and Denzel Washington arrive to attend the world premiere of the film “Safe House” in New York February 7, 2012.

Denzel Washington, 57-year-old actor, may be known for many of his gangster roles in movies like “Training Day” but the thespian is also adamant about sharing his love for Jesus Christ.

In an interview with GQ magazine, Washington opened up about his Christian values, telling the publication that he made sure to read his Bible every day.

“I read from the Bible every day, and I read my Daily Word,” Washington revealed. “I read something great yesterday. It said, ‘Don’t aspire to make a living. Aspire to make a difference.'”

The Christian actor also told the publication about his experience with feeling the Holy Spirit during a service at the West Angeles Church of God in Christ.

Many pastors and hundreds of people gather at CTFM & RUAP meetings in the Gold Coast / Live webcast with Pr Daniel this Sun 18th Nov

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) It is with great excitement and joy that we report that the CTFM & RUAP meetings in the Gold Coast over the last weekend were a great success with Pastor Daniel as the guest speaker.

Pr Daniel met with the QLD RUA Party State Exec and the members of RUAP Gold Coast branch on Friday night, just after he arrived in the Gold Coast. On Saturday morning, he addressed a Minister’s Breakfast at the Country Golf Club, organised by the RUAP branch in the Gold Coast. This Breakfast was attended by more than 50 church leaders from many denominations and churches, including a local Anglican Archbishop who opened the meeting in prayer.

As National President of Rise Up Australia Party, Pr Daniel challenged all present to rise up and ‘Keep Australia Australian’ for the next generation.

He said, “If we do not stand up now, we might not get another opportunity in our generation to make a stand to protect our Judeo-Christian Heritage to save Australia and keep it Australian!”

His address was well received with much excitement from all present. Many pastors pledged their support for RUA Party.

Pr Daniel also spoke on Saturday night, Sunday morning & evening at the Reach Out For Christ Church in the Gold Coast.

People from 10 different churches attended the meetings. Some of these Holy Spirit revival meetings had more than 250 people in attendance. People were mightily touched by the Word of God and the powerful personal life testimony of Pr Daniel and his family.  He also shared the vision God gave him to take Australia for Jesus by 2020.

IHOP’s “Magnificent Obsession”—The Word of God

Aimee Herd : Oct 2, 2012 : Worship Musician! magazine

“Singing the Scripture; I was really connecting with God for the first time in my life. Six hours a day, eight hours a day, ten hours a day—connecting with Him. Then small things started to look small, big things started to look big; I started to see the way to impact society, and that you can’t do it without prayer or without the Presence of God. My whole ministry view changed, my world view and my music changed. There were times where there was literally no one [besides the worship team] in the room for hours.” -Misty Edwards, IHOP

Below are excerpts, reprinted with permission from an article that is featured in Worship Musician! magazine’s September/October issue. To read the entire article, CLICK HERE.

IHOP KCOn the outskirts of Kansas City, the acronym IHOP likely conjures up a different image in the mind than pancakes—one of passionate worshipers of Jesus deep in prayer, led by skilled musicians and singers, pouring their hearts out to God. That’s an accurate description of the main prayer room at the International House of Prayer, where music-based intercession has been lifted up, non-stop, for 13 years now. I spoke with three of the many worship leaders in the 24/7 prayer room about what it’s like to be a part of something that resembles the Tabernacle of King David, and about how that’s being shared with the rest of the world through their latest CD: “One Thing Live-Magnificent Obsession.” (Photo courtesy: IHOPKC/Worship Musician! magazine)

Aimee Herd: Misty, you’ve been at the International House of Prayer in Kansas City pretty much from the beginning of the 24-hour prayer and worship, right?

Misty Edwards: Right. It started in 1999 and I was one of the first of five interns.
