Dear Ministry Partner
‘Jesus
Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever' (Hebrews 13:8-9).
‘This is what the Lord says: If you can break My covenant with
the day and the night so that one does not follow the other,
only then will be My covenant be broken (Jeremiah 33:20-21).
It is easy to read and
hear about the things which happened in the Bible without personally
identifying with them. But if God did these things in the past,
why not believe for them today? Some Christians would dismiss
miraculous provision and healing by saying either that these
were in the past, or that they were ‘dispensational'; that they
can only happen at certain times! The real truth is that they
do not want these things to happen! It would disturb the religious
‘order' of their lives.
Years ago I came into
a totally new experience of faith – the realisation that if
God says it, then He will always do it! This is what faith is:
not faith in a promise or a healing, but faith in God as a person;
that my God is a God of His Word, who will always keep a given
promise! This means that you have to make a conscious decision,
either to continue living ‘normally' or to live in a faith-experience
of letting God's Word govern your decisions.
Israel Evangelism
– Please pray urgently with us!
We
are evangelising in Israel 28th, 29th, 30th April. We quickly
need to pray in the £150,000 it will cost. – God is able
to do exceedingly abundantly above what we ask, think or imagine!
He has already prearranged the miracles we need in this ministry
– our responsibility is to believe and act in faith.
Our organiser has recently
returned from Israel. He wrote:
‘Let me briefly share
the latest news from Israel about the crusade preparation; this
evangelism is a special experience I have never had before!
There is an extremely strong atmosphere of spiritual battle
and opposition – and at the same time mighty guidance and the
Lord's presence.
‘At present there are
around 40 congregations involved in the preparation and trying
to bring Jewish and Arab unbelievers to David's service – this
has caused strong opposition from the Orthodox Jews. This opposition
was strengthened when a Chief Rabbi saw an invitation to the
services; he started to agitate all the Jews to persecute these
Christians. As a result, an Orthodox Jewish group, Yad Leahim,
together with thousands of Jews, attacked several church buildings.
‘But in spite of that,
there is a constant process of preparation involving the secular
Jews, Arabs – and even some Orthodox Jews. At the moment there
are around 20 ‘social support' campaigns all over Israel; according
to the local church experience this is the most effective way
to create a contact of trust with the population, and to invite
people to the services. Local believers are sharing thousands
of food packages, clothes, prayer counselling – they are also
registering people for buses and personal invitations to the
venue.'
Prayer Points
for us, our organisers, and volunteers in Israel:
-
That the Lord would
be our shield – the glory and the lifter of our heads (Psalm
3:3).
-
That the favour
of the Lord would surround us (Psalm 5:12).
-
That the Lord will
rescue us from every trap and protect from every disease
(Psalm 91:3).
-
That the faithful
promises of the Lord will be our armour and protection (Psalm
91:4).
-
That no evil will
conquer us – that the Lord will command His angels to protect
us wherever we go (Psalm 91:20-11).
-
That even in days
of (economic) famine we shall enjoy plenty (Psalm 37:19).
-
That the Lord would
command His blessing upon our storehouse and all we set
our hand to (Deuteronomy 28:8).

Ukraine Video Clip – Thank you for praying!
During February and early
March, I held a series of meetings in Kiev and Sumy, Ukraine.
Salvation Church fasted and prayed for one month prior to our
visit. The result? In two meetings, 4000 came; 2000 of whom
were unbelievers. Many came forward for salvation and were counselled.

Many
people contact us with prayer requests: We have
a wonderful group of people who set aside time each week to
pray individually for those who ask for specific prayer. – It
is our pleasure to stand in faith with you knowing that Jesus
is able, and wants to meet every need (Mark 1:40-42). Jesus
died not only that we would be forgiven, but so that we can
have health and healing – and live in peace (Isaiah 53:5).
There
is a tremendous amount to be done in the coming years, especially
as the door has now opened into Europe – that is why
I will be in Israel this April, followed by crusades in Ukraine,
Poland and the Netherlands. We are also looking forward and
planning for our biggest programme ever for 2012. The Apostle
Paul, writing to the Philippians, said that there has never
been the slightest doubt that the God who started this great
work will bring it to a flourishing finish!
Thank
you for your prayer support.
