Are the QLD floods the result of Kevin Rudd speaking against Israel?

Avigdor Liberman meets with Kevin Rudd in JerusalemDear family & friends in Christ,Flooding of Biblical Proportions

It is 11.50pm on Friday night the 7th of January.  You might wonder what I am doing in my office at this time.  Well we are all at the all night prayer meeting at the CTFM base.  We started the prayer meeting at 7.30pm and would be  finishing at 6am but this issue was so urgent, I thought I must  get the info out to you as soon as possible, so that we can repent on behalf of Australia.

Around 8pm on Friday night the 7th of January we had a strong prompting by the Holy Spirit to repent on behalf of Australia. As we started doing so, I was reminded that every time America went against Israel, there was disaster in the land and this has been documented over the years.

Then at once I was reminded of Kevin Rudd speaking against Israel in Israel on 14th December 2010.  It is very interesting that Kevin Rudd is from QLD.  Is God trying to get our attention?  Yes,  I believe so.

Also the Lord said to us, “ I will humble Australia and bring her down on her knees. As she has taken pride in my blessing, and man has taken the glory and not given it to Me”.

Mocking of Jesus on channel 10/Answers to prayer in Rockhampton QLD

Kitty FlanaganDear family & friends in Christ,

1 )I received this info yesterday and thought it was important that we act on it ASAP.

The link below is a portion of a program aired on Channel Ten on 4th Jan. While God has a sense of humour, this goes way beyond what is acceptable.

If this was about the Muslim faith and Allah there would be demonstrations and riots on our streets. How dare they speak about of Saviour like this!   I have heard that Channel 10 has been swamped with complaints.  I would encourage you to do the same and ask for a public apology.

To register your complaint call channel ten Melbourne, details as follows:

Glorious Praise & Worship ushered in the new year at CTFM base

Powerful WorshipDear family & friends in Christ,
 
The Ushering in of the new year was celebrated around the world with fire crackers, parties and family gatherings at homes etc, but the most exciting news is that there were also groups of Christians around the world who came together in prayer and worship to usher in the new year!  Glory to God!
 
Some of you may be surprised to know that also there was a another group of people who were very active during new years eve night, and that was the satanic cults and witchcraft covens. In fact we received messages that the covens had surrounded the Catch The Fire base and covered a five kilometre area trying to stop what we were doing.  We were also informed that some coven members were in attendance at our meeting.
 
Well glory to God, we were so excited to hear the news that the covens were trying hard to disrupt our meeting. This so challenged the people that the place exploded with mighty praise and worship right throughout the night. The presence of God was so strong, at times the people could hardly stand up! There was an amazing spirit of intercession at the meeting and warfare prayer.
 
The place was just bursting with God’s mighty presence. As the new year was ushered in, People danced, and shouted out loud proclamations of victory and declared prophetically “AUSTRALIA FOR JESUS!” three times. Then the showfars and trumpets sounded, while the musicians lifted up worshipful praise to Jesus. People aslo danced with banners and tambourines.

Surprise: More hate crimes against Christians than against Muslims

Islam FlagThis morning there was a report that a cab driver in New York was stabbed because he was Muslim. While the facts are still emerging, all reasonable people can agree this is a shameful and un-American act if this proves to be true.

This incident will undoubtedly be used by the media to further push the narrative that the controversy over the Mosque near Ground Zero in New York shows how Americans are bigoted against Muslims. So here’s some clarifying info from the FBI. According to the latest hate crime statistics available, there were 1,606 hate crime offenses motivated by religious bias in 2008. A closer look: 65.7 percent of them were committed against Jews. Against Muslims? 7.7 percent.

U.S. grants asylum to born-again ‘Son of Hamas’

MosabPosted: June 30, 2010 By Art Moore © 2010 WorldNetDaily

Homeland Security wanted to deport ex-Muslim who spied for Israel – Mosab Hassan Yousef
 
An immigration judge in San Diego ruled today the son of a Hamas founder who converted to Christianity and spied for Israel will be granted political asylum after the Department of Homeland Security dropped its objections.

As WND reported, Mosab Hassan Yousef had been denied his February 2009 request for asylum because the department interpreted his work as a counterterror agent with Israel’s Shin Bet security agency as engagement in terrorist activity, making him a threat to U.S. security.

Judge Rico Bartolomei ruled Yousef will be granted political asylum Aug. 26 after he is fingerprinted and passes a routine background check. Yousef says he wants to become a U.S. citizen.

WE NEED Another JESUS MOVEMENT

Jesus MovementBy J. Lee Grady

Share In today’s hip, sophisticated churches, we often forget to preach about Jesus. Let’s get back to basics.

I became a serious Christian at the tail end of the Jesus movement. I was too young to remember the hippie beads, tie-dyed shirts and “Jesus Is Groovy” slogans, but the songs were still popular when I was in college (from musicians such as Andrae Crouch, Love Song and Barry McGuire), as were the movies (especially The
Cross and the Switchblade.)

The Jesus movement was like a spiritual tsunami that washed over hundreds of thousands of young people in the late 1960s and early ’70s and brought them into a personal relationship with Christ.  Some of these kids had been drug addicts and social misfits; most were just average Joes and Janes who discovered that Jesus is a lot more exciting than traditional churches had led them to believe…

Lately I find myself waxing nostalgic for those days-not because I want to return to the awkward fashions and hairstyles of 1972, but because I miss the spiritual simplicity of that era. The Jesus
movement was primarily focused on-surprise!-Jesus. Theology was not complicated, pastors weren’t trying to be hip or sophisticated or tech-savvy; and we hadn’t yet created a Christian subculture with its own celebrities and political power bases.

Church Building in Israel Set Ablaze

Church FireFriday, 05 November 2010 Wayne King/Compass Direct News – Featured News

An unidentified arsonist in Israel set fire to a Jerusalem church building that has long been a focal point for anti-Christian sentiment in a Jewish ultra-Orthodox-leaning neighborhood, church officials said.

On Friday (Oct. 29) shortly before 1 a.m., someone broke the basement windows of the Jerusalem Alliance Church Ministry Center and set fire to its bottom floors. An area resident noticed the fire and called the fire department, which arrived 20 minutes later and found the church basement engulfed in flames.
 
Firefighters extinguished the blaze, ventilated the smoke and left after inspecting the rest of the building, said Jack Sara, senior pastor of the church.
 
Smoke and the noise of the blaze had awakened 10 volunteer workers who were sleeping at the church’s overnight facilities. The volunteers, who were visiting Israel from the United States and Denmark, went to a nearby hospital and were treated for smoke inhalation; they were released several hours later, church leaders said.

The Vicar of Baghdad Speaks Out About Recent Iraq Church Bombing

The Vicar and Teresaby Teresa Neumann : Nov 23, 2010 : Andrew White – The Jerusalem Post

“I live with many threats, along with my people, but our place is not sad but full of joy. Despite the constant tragedies, our people are not sad and our church is not despondent.”

(Iraq)—Many Breaking Christian News subscribers watched our exclusive video interview with the Reverend Canon Dr. Andrew White last year. Now, White is speaking out about the recent church massacre in Baghdad.

In excerpts from a Jerusalem Post blog, White writes: “In Iraq we have been under attack since the beginning of the war in 2003, but the past month has seen an escalation in our situation. Over the past year, 93 Christians were killed in my church. This month alone over 100 have been killed in Iraq. Some 59 were killed in a single massacre in the Syrian Catholic Church on the 31st of October 2010. Since then many more Christians have been targeted, blown up, told they no longer belong in Iraq and were advised to leave now or be executed. Things are so hard that many Christians are fleeing, or at least are trying to.”

“My security now is very intense and far greater now than in the post war year. It always used to amaze me when I went to church each week with body armor on, in armored cars and surrounded by Iraqi Military. I don’t think that there were many other ministers in the world who would go to church like this. Nowadays things are very different. I now live in the church Compound, and the security of the church is now completely different than before. Not only are we surrounded by bomb barricades, the number of police and army security is phenomenal—and they are all provided by the Iraqi Government. Not long ago I went to Kurdistan with my board chair Lord Hylton. We were given over 120 military security to get us out of Baghdad. Then we reduced to our normal 35 soldiers when we left Baghdad. The children of our church came to me and, pointing at the soldiers, told me they were my children. So from that day I call my security my children.

Bush Memoir Points to Faith-Based Decisions

President George W BushThursday, 11 November 2010 04:19 PM Jimmy Stewart News  

He never would have made it to the White House in 2001 as the country’s 43rd president without the faith-based decision he made in 1986.

“I could not have quit drinking without faith,” former President George W. Bush writes in his memoir, Decision Points, which released Tuesday. “I also don’t think my faith would be as strong if I hadn’t quit drinking.”

It was the first significant decision among several that ultimately solidified Bush’s resolve to act on his belief that God was calling him to lead the nation as president, the memoir shows, according to a report published Wednesday by Religion News Service (RNS).

That his politics were influenced by his faith in God after Bush took office in Jan. 2001is no revelation. But now he recounts in his own words, across the 497 pages, the ways his religious belief shaped his life and his politics, and thus his administration, RNS reported. His reliance on God, though not the central thrust of the book, remains a theme throughout, the report stated.

Global warming has slowed down over the past 10 years, say scientists

Measurements from space are used to see how temperatures are changingBy Daily Mail Reporter 26th November 2010  [Not necessarily the views of Catch the Fire Ministries]

The rate at which global temperatures are rising has slowed in the past decade, scientists said today. In a report published today, the Met Office said the slow in the rate of warming was down to a combination of natural variation in the weather and pollution. Scientists say one of the major factors is the rise in heavy industry and pollutant ‘aerosols’, particularly in Asia.An upsurge in industrial emissions such as sulphur which are being pumped into the atmosphere reflects sunlight and could lead to a cooling effect.

Changes in the amount of water vapour in the stratosphere may also be a factor, the report suggests.

Pakistan Gov’t Barred from Pardoning Christian on Death Row

By Nathan Black | Christian Post Reporter – Nov. 29 2010

The Pakistani government was barred on Monday by the country’s high court from pardoning a Christian woman sentenced to death for alleged blasphemy.

A lawyer argued that a pardon would be illegal while the case was pending in the courts.

“Since the matter is in the high court, the government cannot now make any move to pardon Bibi,” lawyer Allah Bakhsh Leghari told Agence France-Presse.

Asia Bibi was sentenced early this month to death by hanging for allegedly speaking ill of Prophet Muhammad. The Christian mother of five is the first woman to receive a death sentence for blasphemy in Pakistan.

Bibi’s attorney filed an appeal and signed a petition pleading for a presidential pardon. (more…)

Amazing Dreams and Visions Coming Out of the Middle East

Muslim womanby Teresa Neumann: Nov 29, 2010 : Staff – Mission Network News

Middle East (MNN) ― Last week we told you about Muslim leaders warning Muslims about the danger presented by the “network of house churches” in the country. Despite threats, Christians aren’t easing their desire to share the Gospel. Many young Iranian leaders met in a nearby country to receive training from a E3 Partners team.

Vice President of Church and Ministry Partnerships with E3, Tom Doyle, says those who receive the training were young. “Many of them 22 to 25 are pastoring churches throughout Iran. And the church is growing in Iran. Obviously, it’s a very threatening existence for them.”

From there the team traveled to Israel. “My buddy Jason Elam, who used to be a place kicker for the [Denver] Broncos, was also hosting with me. He’s a wonderful Bible teacher. And he’s getting involved.”

The work in Israel focused on the city of Haifa. “Haifa is the place where Arab and Jews really get along in Israel, and they work together. We worked with a church there. [We] did some things in the West Bank and did Gospel outreach in Tel Aviv,” which is a secular city.

E3 has a desire to see the Middle East turn to Christ. Doyle says many are turning to Christ. He says the way they’re doing so is amazing. “We found that Muslim-background believers, many of them, in our informal surveys — maybe even as many as half of them — had a dream or a vision before they came to Christ. They became a ‘seeker,’ found a believer, heard a message on the radio, or found a Bible.”
