Urgent Prayer for Government / Glorious Credentialing Service at CTFM / Pr Daniel in Canberra this weekend

CTFM Board with Newly Credentialed MinistersPraying for God\'s Government and Righteousness to Exalt AustraliaDear family & friends in Christ,

1) Firstly, let us thank you all for praying and standing in the gap for the Federal Election over the last few weeks. We have definitely seen the effects of prayer.

However, we all do know that our nation is at a very critical crossroads right now and desperately needs unceasing urgent prayer throughout the Body of Christ to see the formation of a Government which will acknowledge the Word of God.

Starting today Julia Gillard (Labor) and Tony Abbott (Liberals) will be meeting with the 4 elected Independent Members of House of Representatives in order to strike a deal to form a minority Government. Please pray for  Bob Katter, Rob Oakeshott, Tony Windsor, and Andrew Wilke who will possibly decide on who will lead our nation for the next 3 years.

Pray that they will not be deceived by promises of financial gain, but will think of the future of our nation and the next generation. Pray that the Holy Spirit will lead them to support a Government which will bring glory to God and a PM who will acknowledge the name of Jesus.

Please also pray that the Governor General will be unbiased when she makes the decision as to who should form the government, as the media has exposed that the Governor General’s son-in-law Bill Shorten (Labor) was the master mind behind the axing of Kevin Rudd and the putting in Ms Gillard as PM.

Devils inside hidden Green agenda

The Daily Telegraph July 21, 2010

One election result is already clear – and makes this debate about Tony Abbott’s “secret” plans even more brainless.

Wake up, people. The Greens will have the balance of power in the Senate.

Labor sealed that deal when it agreed to swap preferences with a party which its wiser heads know would devastate the economy if it could.

That’s politics, I guess.

Winning is all, and to hell with the national interest. But how grotesquely irresponsible?

Labor is helping into power a party which demands we scrap our power stations and close industries that earn us at least $60 billion a year.

Haiti Update: God is Opening Doors Like Never Before

MAF aeroplaneHaitiby Aimee Herd: Jul 13, 2010 

News Staff – Mission Network News

“The Lord has opened a door of opportunity spiritually, where tens of thousands of voodooists in Haiti are asking huge questions about their beliefs. So the opportunity for the Gospel to be preached and taught is unprecedented in Haiti.”

Despite the fact that six months after the devastating earthquake rocked the impoverished nation of Haiti, last January, most of the rubble and piles of destroyed buildings still remain, there have been unprecedented changes in the spiritual atmosphere.

According to a report in Mission Network News from the Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) team, there has opened a remarkable open door for the Gospel to be shared and received—even among those who had previously been directly opposed to it.

MAF president John Boyd notes that as his ministry reaches out physically with that “cup of cold water,” the prospects of communicating the Good News of Jesus are “phenomenal.”

“The Lord has opened a door of opportunity spiritually, where tens of thousands of voodooists in Haiti are asking huge questions about their beliefs. So the opportunity for the Gospel to be preached and taught is unprecedented in Haiti.”

A Turning to God in the Philippines – New President Aims to Clean Up Corruption and Seek the Lord

President Aquinoby Aimee Herd : Jul 29, 2010 : Gary Lane – CBN News

“If we remain firm in our belief that God is on our side, is there anything impossible for us to achieve?”

(Manila, Philippines)—Newly elected Philippine President Benigno Aquino lll, may have known he had quite a task before him in his quest to clean up corruption and end poverty in his country, however, he was reportedly “shocked to learn that the previous administration had already spent 94 percent of the nation’s $33 billion budget. Only $2 billion remains for the second half of the fiscal year.”

Aquino wasted no time in getting started, though, according to a CBN report, he is establishing a “Truth Commission to investigate government corruption.”

But, perhaps one of the most remarkable aspects of the new administration is that the new president is not acting in his power alone, but is publicly stating his reliance on God.

Should we pray for Julia Gillard’s salvation?? By Pr Daniel

Parliament House Canberra, AustraliaDear family & friends in Christ,

The last few months have been very exciting and challenging with people from all walks of life entering the debate about the upcoming Federal Election this Saturday 21st August.

I first want to thank you all for your overwhelming support through the many responses we have received. I would love to respond to every email, but unfortunately it is not practically possible, as I too have a family. My motto is Jesus first, family second and ministry third.

A few people have asked me, “Pastor, should we not pray for Julia Gillard’s salvation? Maybe once she wins the election she might become a Christian. Don’t we as Christians have to love her? Nothing is impossible with God.” And the list goes on and on.

Let me say this, we have to definitely pray for Julia Gillard’s salvation, we even pray for Bob Brown’s salvation.

When the election was announced, during that first week, we had one of our RUA prayer meeting in the western suburbs of Melbourne in Ms Gillard’s electorate. Around 20 of us went down to her office, placed oil on the doors and windows, and prayed for an hour around the place. (more…)

Special Credentialing Service in Melbourne / Gold Coast on Fire – Lady healed of Cancer

Pastor Daniel with girl who was the first baby saved through Options Plus Care 10 years agoPraying for people gathered from 10 different churches on the Gold CoastDear family & friends in Christ,

It is with great joy we announce that this Sunday the 22nd of August at the 6.30pm service the first batch of Ministers of the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ will be credentialed into the five-fold ministry (Ephesians 4:11-13). These men and woman of God will travel from SA, NSW, QLD & across VIC to receive their credentials and to join in this very special night of giving praise, worship, and honour to the King of Kings and LORD of lords!

We would love to see you at this very special service to join together with us in praying and commissioning these mighty warriors in God’s army into the Lord’s end-time harvest to transform our nation of Australia and the nations for Jesus. You are most welcome to bring friends and family along with you.

Click the following link to download the ordination service flyer: https://reformationharvestfire.com/blog/rise-up-australia/ordination-service-flyer/

We are expecting a full house, so come early and get your seats as Pastor Daniel will be ministering at both services at 9.30am & 6.30pm this Sunday the 22nd of August.  He stated, “I am so excited that finally the day has come that we could credential ministers into the five-fold ministry to equip the Body of Christ for the work of the ministry.  (Ephesians 4:11-13) This is how the Church is supposed to be, where the Apostles, Prophets, Evangelist, Teachers & Pastors all work together hand in hand to train the saints in the Body of Christ to extend the Kingdom of God.”

The leadership board of Catch The Fire Ministries had to unfortunately turn down many applications, as they did not meet the needed criteria, but we pray as time goes by that many more warriors in the army of God will see the importance of a totally surrendered life in order to fulfil the great commission of our great KING Jesus! (Matthew 28:18-20)

National Prayer Assault Great Success on Mt Ainslie and Other High Places

Prayer Warriors Interceeding For Australian GovernmentPs Daniel leading National Prayer Assault on Mt Ainslie in Canberra, AustraliaDear family & friends in Christ,

It is with great joy and excitement we bring you this wonderful report regarding the National Prayer Assault on Mount Ainslie in Canberra and 20 plus mountains across Australia!

We believe that Saturday the 14th of August 2010 was a day of history making in the Spirit for our nation as thousands of Christians around Australia stormed heaven in intercessory prayer for the upcoming Federal Election, repenting of sin on behalf of the Church and the nation, asking God to heal our land.

There were Christians gathered on many mountains, churches, homes and parks all across our Great South Land of the Holy Spirit to unite as one in the Lord Jesus Christ to pray for His righteousness to exalt our nation!

Following are some of the places we have a record of where people prayed: Central Coast Gosford, Penshurst, Sugarloaf Mountain in Newcastle, Brown Mountain in Bega Valley, Kellyville, Ryde (between Sydney City and the Blue Mountains), Brown Mountain in Bega Valley (NSW), Kyabram, Boort, Burwood, Hallam, Mildura, Mount William in the Grampians (VIC) Toowoomba (QLD), Darwin, Middleton, Kangaroo Island (SA), Victoria/Daly District, Darwin (NT), Kalgoorlie, (WA), Hobart (TAS), Mt Ainslie (ACT), overseas in Singapore and other nations. Every state and territory was covered in prayer.

Hundreds of Christians from 20 cities and towns across Australia gathered on top of Mount Ainslie in Canberra to pray from 10am – 12pm on Saturday 14th August. They came from Perth, Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Newcastle, Young, Merimbula, Bega, Cootamundra, Culcairn, Gosford, Griffith and many other places across Australia. There were Christians from 35 different churches, which included Catholic Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Anglican, Evangelical, Pentecostal, Charismatic, and others.  It was also very encouraging to see that these prayer warriors represented 40 different nationalities, all who are now Australians and call Australia home.

When will the Church stop being politically correct? By Pr Daniel

Pastor Daniel NalliahDear family & friends in Christ,

Let me start by saying that our battle is not against flesh & blood, but against principalities and powers of darkness in high places (Eph. 6:11-12).

We as pastors and Christian leaders are accountable to God to lead the flock He has entrusted into our hands in the right path. We must stop being politically correct, and return to being biblically correct.  We desperately need your faithful intercessory prayer support (1 Timothy 2:1-7).

In the last few days I have received several phone calls and emails from Christians (including pastors and other Christian leaders) around the country asking me as to why Australian Christian Lobby appears to be promoting self-confessing atheist Julia Gillard for PM in this election and why the Senior Pastor of City Life Church recently stated in the Age newspaper on 6th August that he was not overly concerned by PM Julia Gillard’s atheism, ”Primarily you are looking at them to have what it takes to run the nation.”

http://www.theage.com.au/federal-election/gillard-bid-to-win-back-christians-20100805-11krh.html

I personally called the Senior Pastor to speak to him, but he was out of the country, so I spoke to his personal assistant who was very kind and cooperative in assuring me that she will talk to him and get back to me. As promised she did call me and confirmed that the Pastor had spoken to the Age newspaper journalist and that his response was on his blog.

I read through his blog, but could not find a clear answer to the question as to whether or not it concerned him that the PM was an atheist, so I also contacted the Age journalist who told me that his question to the Pastor about his concern over the PM’s atheism was very straight forward. For which the Pastor responded by saying, ”Primarily you are looking at them to have what it takes to run the nation.” 

We also recently read in the news media and on the ACL website that ACL (Australian Christian Lobby) was successful in getting PM Julia Gillard to speak to the Christian voters through the ACL website, where she made several promises in order to win back the Christian vote.

http://www.theage.com.au/federal-election/gillard-pitches-to-christian-voters-20100807-11pih.html

The question we all need to ask is, “Was PM Gillard genuine or was she simply making promises that she will never deliver. I was surprised when I heard that ACL was giving such a forum to Julia Gillard, knowing very well that she is an atheist. Many asked me “Why is ACL doing this again as they did the same with Rudd?” I honestly cannot understand how a Christian leader could give an atheist such a platform to mislead the Christian voters.

Should Christians be involved in Politics? by Col Stringer

Col StringerI love this country; to me it is the greatest land in the world. As I was walking into church the other day, I thought to myself that no one had to go through a bomb check or a metal detector when we arrived. No one had come with thoughts of being blown up, or shot etc. Yet for how many nations in the world, would it be a vastly different story? Australia is one of a few successful Christian democracies in the world. Even the USA fought a war f their freedom from England a: then a civil war. The UK fought bloody civil war and more recently they have faced IRA bombs, and race riots. France has been a divided nation for 150 years. Russia, Greece, Italy a Spain are just a few that experienced revolution and civil war. Historian Paul Johnson wrote: “ The development of Australia rates as one of mankind’s greatest achievements……….one of the most advanced. and prosperous societies on earth has been created. It is an achievement with few parallels in history.”

I am not just a minister, but I am also a fifth generation Aussie; I have dual citizenship. I am a citizen of heaven, as well as Australia. I have a stewardship of what He has given me here in this great land. Yet so few Christians will stand up and fight, for that God given freedom. Section 116 of the Constitution of Australia clearly states: “The Commonwealth shall not make any law establishing any religion or imposing religious observance or for prohibiting the free exercise of religion…..” (more…)

Police Chief Sees a Miracle on the Highway

crushed truckThursday, July 8th, 2010 By Kendra Bolling
 
“If it weren’t for Jesus Christ, we would have all blown up,” said McKenzie police chief
Clint Reaves, who responded to the Tuesday 18-wheeler accident in Butler County that severely injured an Andalusia man.

The accident occurred shortly after noon at the intersection of U.S. Hwy. 31 and Alabama Hwy. 55 in McKenzine.

Reaves, who witnessed the accident, said Tony Moore, of Andalusia, was traveling southbound behind a log truck on U.S. Hwy. 31 while operating a Gitty-Up-N-Go tanker truck, carrying fuel.

Moore signaled to make a right-hand turn, Reaves said.

“At the same time, a J.B. Hunt freightliner was at the intersection of 31 and 55,” Reaves said. “That driver saw the log truck making the right turn but not the tanker. He had part of his trailer blocking both the southbound lanes of 31. At the same time, Moore got over into the left lane to pass the log truck. He turned to keep from hitting the J.B. Hunt truck. He turned it sideways, and his trailer got sideways, and he flipped twice.”

The freightliner was driven by Bobbi Carroll from Kinston.

Reaves said he had been in law enforcement for the past 25 years and said he had “never been so scared in his life.”

Ex-Muslim on Faith, Women’s Rights, Obama

Sabatina JamesTue, May. 04 2010 By Michelle A. Vu Christian Post Reporter
 
Sabatina James spoke to The Christian Post last week using a temporary cell phone that she had to discard afterward. The bestselling author of My Fight for Faith and Freedom and the founder of the relief organization, Sabatina EV, spoke candidly about her Christian faith, her passion for women’s rights and how she thinks President Obama is handling relations with Islamic countries.

The following are excerpts from the interview.

CP: How old are you?

James: I’m 27 now.

CP: You talk a lot in your book about Islam’s view of women and how Muslim men treat women based on the teachings of the Quran. So is it true what critics of Islam say – that the religion teaches that you can beat your wife, women have no value, and martyrs are promised to go to heaven where virgins await them?

James: Yes, well the Quran says in the fourth Surah (chapter) in verse 34 that if your wife is not obedient you are allowed to beat her. That is what the Quran says, you know. In Islamic countries, like Pakistan, Afghanistan, there is sharia law. And sharia law takes the Quran and that is how they judge. They take verses from the Quran and say it is written in the Quran that is why the women has to be obedient and if she is not you are allowed to beat her. That is the way it is.

Sabatina EV is my organization and there are a lot of Muslim women who come to us. We have girls who were married when they were 13 years old. In Hamburg, for example, there is one, a girl who is from Afghanistan who was married when she was 13 years old. But people do not talk about it because if you say something that is critical about Islam people would immediately say you are racist. And what they do not understand is that this is not about racism but about human rights. If you are living in a democracy you have to protect the human rights and it does not matter if your religion says you are allowed to beat your wife.

When I was a small child it was my wish to die for Allah one day – you asked about the suicide bombers. I didn’t know what to expect in heaven but I was sure this is the only way to get to heaven because there is no guarantee for Muslims to know whether Allah will forgive him his sins or not. But if you die for Allah then you are guaranteed that you and your family will go to heaven; that is what you are taught in the Quran schools. And I was ten years old when I read the Quran and my grandfather, who just died, was a mullah and I learned the Quran from him in Arabic. For me it was normal.

When I was ten years old I went to Austria and I definitely didn’t want to die then. But still I have that desire in my heart that one day Allah will give me the strength to do something like that; that I will kill some non-Muslims and go to heaven. Something quite normal.

CP: So even if a child doesn’t go to a radical Quran school but just living in society a child has these suicide bomber thoughts?

Avaaz Community in Brazil Wins a Stunning Victory Against Corruption

Anti Corruption CampaignDear friends,

A massive online campaign by the Avaaz community in Brazil has just won a stunning victory against corruption.

The “clean record” law was a bold proposal that banned any politician convicted of crimes like corruption and money laundering from running for office. With nearly 25% of the Congress under investigation for corruption, most said it would never pass. But after Avaaz launched the largest online campaign in Brazilian history, helping to build a petition of over 2 million signatures, 500,000 online actions, and tens of thousands of phone calls, we won!

Avaaz members fought corrupt congressmen daily as they tried every trick in the book to kill, delay, amend, and weaken the bill, and won the day every time. The bill passed Congress, and already over 330 candidates for office face disqualification!

One Brazilian member wrote to us when the law was passed, saying:

I have never been as proud of the Brazilian people as I am today! Congratulations to all that have signed. Today I feel like an actual citizen with political power. — Silvia (more…)

CTFM board and leaders washing feet of Ps Daniel and his wife MaryseCTFM Board and Leaders cut cake at RUA 10th Anniversary Dear family & friends in Christ,
 
1) In the midst of the whole federal election and all the other critical issues surrounding us in Australia, we thank the Lord that He is increasingly moving by His Holy Spirit and power across our nation!  This is only because Christians, the people of God, are beginning to see the importance of prayer and the amazing effects it has on everyone around you!
 
Last Friday night 6th August marked the 10th Anniversary of RUA (Rise Up Australia) prayer meetings across the nation of Australia and now also in many other nations. This was a glorious day for the RUA family as many of the CTFM Generals have faithfully prayed, supported and stood with Ps Daniel and his family in this God-given mission to take Australia and the Nations for Jesus.
 
There was a real spirit of celebration and rejoicing in the house of the Lord as many gathered on this night to seek the Lord in prayer particularly pertaining to the upcoming federal election. The Spirit of God moved most powerfully as many travailed and wept for Australia’s transformation in prayer to the Lord Almighty.

School chaplains only certain with Abbott as PM

Senator Ron BoswellMedia Release from Senator Ron Boswell, The National Senator for Queensland

2 August 2010

“The only way to be sure of keeping your school chaplain is to elect a Coalition government,” said The Nationals’ Senator Ron Boswell today.  “Tony Abbott is committed to keeping the program going at present funding levels of $165m over three years.”

“Labor on the other hand has reduced funding which is designed to finish in 2011. There are no promises beyond a departmental review.”

“Chaplains play a valuable role in schools, supporting students and school communities by offering pastoral care and guidance.”

“The National School Chaplaincy Program was introduced by the former Coalition Government and enabled schools to employ a part-time school chaplain, with the purpose of providing pastoral care and non-denominational spiritual guidance in schools.”

Senator Boswell said that the program operates in 1,915 schools where the local community has sought to be involved with the program, and enjoys strong support among principals, schools and in the community generally.

The Cordoba Mosque in New York – “A Symbol of the Islamic Conquest of Christian Lands”

By Jacob Thomas

On 18 May, 2010, the Arabic-language online daily Elaph posted an article by an Arab Muslim, in which he decried “The Cordoba Mosque” building project being planned for construction in the vicinity of Ground Zero, in New York City.

Set forth below are excerpts from his article, and from two other articles on this same subject.  My analysis and comments will follow.

The project by Muslims to build a mosque in the United States, close to the place where the 9/11 attack took place, is causing quite a stir. It is worth noting that the name chosen for the mosque is confrontational and provocative. The first Cordoba mosque was built in that Spanish city in the aftermath of the Muslim conquest of Christian Spain. This Islamic “Conquista” was followed by the killings of men, and the enslavement of women, many of whom were carried away to the Arab lands to work as servants and concubines for their Muslim masters.  For both Arabs and Muslims, the history of their conquests remains as a symbol of their past glory, and power. They have no thoughts of remorse or shame, when they recall those heinous crimes that accompanied the colonization of Spain!
