During Sunday Morning Altar Call, Bishop T. D. Jakes Says ‘You Don’t Need Iyanla, Oprah, T. D. Jakes, or Dr. Phil to Fix Your Life…You Need Jesus’

Iyanla Vanzant, Oprah Winfrey and Bishop T.D. JakesFebruary 18, 2014 – Teri Addison – EEW Magazine News

Though many respect Iyanla Vanzant, 60 year old host of “Iyanla: Fix My Life” on Oprah Winfrey’s OWN Network, not everyone believes the spiritual leader can live up to the title of her show—namely, Bishop T.D. Jakes.

On Sunday morning, Feb. 16, during an altar call at his The Potter’s House, the 56-year-old Dallas mega pastor, known for being outspoken on pop culture issues, said, “You don’t need Iyanla to fix your life.”

His statement, which was met with applause, was not a direct indictment against Vanzant, though it could be taken that way, but rather, a small part of a larger point.

In context, the popular pastor, who has toured with both Vanzant and Oprah as part of the media mogul’s “Lifeclass,” was discussing the supernatural power of Jesus Christ and how only the son of God could truly fix anyone.

“Salvation is free. You don’t have to labor for it. You don’t have to fix up for it. You don’t have change yourself and then come and present yourself worthy to come,” Jakes said.

Another amazing miracle at Monash ICU – Girl recovers after prayer shocks doctors

14 year old girl with Pr Daniel after prayerDear family & friends in Christ,14 year old girl before prayer

Last week on Wednesday the 5th of March we received an email from a mother who was desperate for a miracle from God and wanted prayer for her daughter who was in Monash ICU in Clayton. The daughter had undergone a operation to remove a cyst which was touching the brain.

However, things did not go as planned after the operation.

Prompted by the Holy Spirit, Pr Daniel went to the Monash ICU with 2 others from CTFM. When they met the family, the mother told them that the doctor had said that this 14 year old girl might not walk, talk or recognise anyone. If at all, it might take a very long time for her to do so. Since this family were born-again Christian believers from another local church, many were already praying for this young girl.

At this point Pr Daniel anointed the girl with oil and prayed for a miracle. In the natural it seemed not good at all, but praise God that in all things are possible in the supernatural in Jesus name! Pr Daniel rebuked the spirit of death and declared that this young girl will walk, talk and recognise her parents. He also shared some of the amazing miracles which had happened at Monash ICU in the past few months, which resulted in the salvation of around 100 souls.

Report: Entire Families Coming to Christ in Saudi Arabia

Greg Kernaghan/OM International

We’re hearing of women and whole families coming to Christ, which is significant. Normally we would know of individual men but, as the culture places such importance on the family unit, this is a major step forward.

One girl is writing hymns and posting them on the Internet. That was where she learned of Christ and has “met” workers, although she has yet to meet other Christians face to face. Two of her sisters also believe in Christ. A Bahraini across the country is gifted in playing local Arabic instruments. He puts her hymns to music and posts them on YouTube.

Media Makes a Difference

Another young girl came to Christ through media. When her parents found out, they were incensed and made attempts to marry her to a fanatical Muslim. People began to pray for her, and their prayers were answered when the wedding to this man was canceled. The family’s emotional abuse ceased, and her sister, having seen her bear up under suffering, has come to Christ.

One brother, Yazid*, was introduced to Christ through visions and dreams. Bored, he was surfing the Internet at work when the Holy Spirit spoke clearly to him to read the Injil and learn about Christ. He downloaded it and began to read the Scriptures. Every time he returned to his desk, God told him to read more. At first it was like a dark cloud, as he began at Genesis, but he read through until the Gospels when the darkness lifted and he understood.

Pr Daniel stated, “Sometimes I feel very tired as I travel and minister, in addition to also missing my family, but nothing can compare to the joy which comes into my heart when I see people challenged and set free by the power of God and the word of His testimony. Nothing can bring more joy than to see my nation come back to Jesus. I praise and thank God for the remnant who have refused to bow down to political correctness in the church.

It is time for a Revolution of love for a national Reformation. God is looking at our generation to take this stand and prepare the way for His coming.”

How Can We Know Syrian Conversions to Christ are Real?

(Photo Syrian refugee via Christian Aid Mission)Amie Cotton (Feb 7, 2014)

“When they become followers of Jesus you can see a huge difference in their lives. The way they share their faith sometimes would help us determine how they are thinking. After all, God looks inside the heart and knows all the details. We also can determine [their heart] because last year we had more than 1,200 baptisms. Do you think a Muslim would get baptized just to get a food package?” -Christian Aid Mission worker in Lebanon

(Charlottesville, VA)—Are the conversions real?

That was the question posed by Cynthia Finley, president of Christian Aid Mission, after staff received another round of encouraging, if not glowing, reports from Middle East ministries that stated “thousands” of Syrians have committed their hearts to Jesus Christ.

Christian Aid Mission is a U.S. non-profit organization that assists hundreds of ministries overseas that have tens of thousands of indigenous missionaries in the field. These ministries are currently engaging more than 1,000 unreached people groups in over 100 countries around the world. Christian Aid Mission is a 60-year-old organization and one of the first to support native missionary ministries overseas.

Challenged to dig deeper, Christian Aid Mission staff contacted ministries they assist in the region, ministries that have invested wholeheartedly in outreach to war-weary Syrians through personal interaction.

This Pastor Made a Box for Unwanted Babies, and You’ll Praise God for What Happened

This Pastor Made a Box for Unwanted BabiesBy Eric Corpus – January 8, 2014

Every year, hundreds of unwanted babies are abandoned on the streets of Seoul, South Korea. To do something about the crisis, Pastor Lee Jong-rak at the Jusarang Orphanage created the Baby Box.

The Baby Box is a drop box on the side of the orphanage where someone can safely leave an unwanted infant. Lined with blankets, the box is heated to keep the baby warm. When an infant is placed in the box, an alarm alerts a staff member to bring the baby inside.

The culture in South Korea places heavy value on physical perfection, so many of the infants left in the Baby Box were born with disabilities, including deafness, blindness, cerebral palsy and Down syndrome.

Since 1998, the orphanage has taken in dozens of children, and raised and loved them. That’s dozens of miraculous stories of faith and love, dozens of tragedies averted.

“One of the mothers told me that she had poison to kill both herself and her baby,” Lee said. “So I told her, ‘Don’t do that. Come here with your baby.'”

Project Rescue Setting Sex-Trafficked Captives Free in India

Project Rescue co-founder David Grant at a safe house for children affected by slavery. (Project Rescue)1/6/2014 Gina Meeks

Though many think slavery is a thing of the past, more than 29.8 million people are held captive as slaves today, according to a comprehensive report from Australia-based Walk Free Foundation. The majority of victims are located outside the U.S., with nearly half—14 million—in India.

That’s why Project Rescue focuses on rescuing and restoring sex-trade victims in India. Since its founding in 1997, in the red light district of Mumbai, the ministry has helped more than 24,000 women and children affected by sexual slavery and now serves in 15 locations throughout India, Nepal, Moldova, Bangladesh, Tajikistan and Spain.

Lucy, the director of a girls’ home in North India who did not share her last name for security reasons, explains that mothers who work in brothels often give their children to Project Rescue to temporarily provide custody of the children and bring them to a safe house. There, the children are cared for around the clock and attend Christian schools.

“Every time we take a child out of the brothels, it is physically and spiritually bringing them out of darkness into light,” Lucy says. “It’s been amazing to see the transformational power of Jesus—to see a child who was abused, scared and angry, and watch them over the course of months blossom.”

Abortion – the truth about grief and breast cancer. . .

Pro-LifeSalt Shakers: E-News

With Victoria and Tasmania now allowing abortion up to birth, and forcing doctors to refer a patient to a doctor who they know will perform and abortion, it is vital that we know the truth about abortion. It is also important that women are provided with all the information – when the Victorian law was passed, amendments aimed at providing that information to women were defeated. Here’s some news from the past month or so…This email has three parts:

First is a moving interview with Anne Lastman, who lives in Melbourne and runs a ministry called ‘Victims of Abortion’. Anne counsels women who are suffering pain and hurt following an abortion, and has written a book titled Redeeming Grief.

The interview was published in National Review Online.The other two parts relate to new evidence about the link between abortion and breast cancer. The latest research comes from China and India.Of particular note is a new book, written by Dr Angela Lanfranchi – she has compiled much of the information about the consequences of abortion to a new book titled Complications: Abortion’s impact on women . . .1.

Businessman’s near-death experience in hell transformed his life

Emerging from comaAugust 29, 2013 – By Mark Ellis of GodreportsBullet lodged in Matthew’s brain

He was attending a business convention with his brother and another family member when random shots sprayed a crowd outside an Atlanta restaurant.

Three intoxicated young men were denied entrance to the eatery and retaliated with a burst of nine-millimeter bullets from an Uzi submachine gun. One of the shots entered the back of Matthew Botsford’s head, lodging itself in the frontal lobe of his brain.

“They were angry, so they took a shot straight up the sidewalk,” says Matthew. “If you took a hypodermic needle, heated it up, and stuck it in your head, that’s what I felt,” he says. “It was a searing hot pain, then things went black.”

His body slammed to the pavement and the last thing he remembers is the cold, hard cement amid “inky” darkness.

He was at the edge of death – if not clinically dead — three times after his heart stopped once on the sidewalk, once in the ambulance, and once in the emergency room of Piedmont Hospital. But weak vital signs returned and doctors induced a coma that lasted 27 days to reduce brain swelling.

Matthew’s wife, Nancy, described the horrifying ordeal in her book, “A Day in Hell; Death to Life to Hope” (Tate Publishing).

Training Christian leaders in North Korea

Praying for the church in North KoreaBy Mark Ellis- December 20, 2013

He escaped from North Korea 15 years ago and became a Christian in South Korea. On a recent mission trip to North Korea’s Hamgyong province, he found young leaders well-trained in Christian theology, eager to build God’s underground church in one of the most repressive and isolated governments on earth.

“I taught three North Korean Christians,” says Jihoon *.  “All of them were from my hometown. It was really good to meet them. They had already studied theology and were trained very well.”

The men discussed the peculiar ideology that rules North Korea – “Juche” – which became a cult of personality centered around its founding proponent, Kim Il-sung, now considered the ‘eternal president’ of North Korea following his death in 1994. The Juche idea states that “man is the master of everything and decides everything.”

“I told them that Kim Il Sung’s parents were Christians and he also knew about the Bible so that Kim Il Sung made the Juche ideology based on the Bible,” Jihoon recounts. “Kim Il Sung twisted the truth of the Bible to establish his own idea.”
