Seeing Jesus

There is so much right about my friend Mark’s post (”Seeing Jesus” on MadeToPraiseHim) that I feel like just linking to his post. He shares about a conversation he recently had with a reiki healer about Christianity, and healing and the supernatural, and you can see the grace with which this individual was treated.  […]

What happens when God is your buddy?

Dreaming with God: Secrets to redesigning your world through God’s creative flow (Bill Johnson)
No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. - John 15:15

Faith in the midst of an invasion

Percentage of Americans who believe in God:

Percentage of Europeans who believe in God:

Interesting images.  I have no way of ascertaining their validity, nor of checking what criteria was used in these two different surveys. Wikipedia has this to say:
A November–December 2006 poll published in the Financial Times gives rates for the United […]

Bill Johnson and Bethel Church “Ignite the Fire”

It has now been brought to my attention that Charisma Magazine featured Bill & Beni Johnson and Bethel Church in the March 2007 edition.
There is SO MUCH right about the lead article “Ignite the Fire” that all I can really do is link to the article, and “let the reader understand….”

Missing the “now” moment of God.

On Tuesday we had our home group at my place, and the Lord allowed me to learn a valuable lesson that I hope I will never forget. We started worshiping and as I got into the presence of God I really felt th anointing of the Lord. After a short while I started […]

A must-read: Back2Front Evangelism

Mark at madetopraisehim has posted a wonderful post on evangelism. What he writes makes evangelism look more like Kingdom dynamics at work rather than pressure tactics for conversions.
Good News is powerful. Putting a smile on somebody’s face is powerful. Making the checkout girl’s day at the supermarket is powerful. Cutting your neighbour’s lawn with a […]

Just do it?

Heads-up people: Mark, living in good Ol’ Scotland, and blogging in madetopraisehim has a great post entitled “When we shouldn’t ask“. In it he proposes that much of our shortcomings in being effective Kingdom Ambassadors may stem from asking the Father for stuff He has already given us, or asking Him to do […]

More on re-digging wells of Revival

Revivalist and church planter Larry Silverman has pointed me to a gem of a book. In his blog post, “So you think you have Revival?” he directed me to a free eBook on the life and ministry of Rev. Raymond T. Richey, a little-known Revivalist that was used mightily by the Lord.
Larry, you made […]

Re-digging wells of Revival

Spoke on Sunday about honouring past moves of God and Revivals, as honour opens a portal of grace to get what they had.
In Genesis 26 we find Isaac re-digging his father’s wells, before he dug his own and found living (running) water (ref). He then dug his own well and found living (running) water […]

All the Zimpeto children have now returned safely. Friday’s evacuation to Machava was just for a few hours. fortunately there were no more explosions that day.
Some of the missionaries led an incredible prayer and worship time with the older children on Friday night in the […]

They have launched an electronic magazine (eZine) called Love Revolution. It is a culture-changing effort, aimed at changing a nation’s […]

Gary Oates Conference: Open my eyes Lord.

This Friday and Saturday saw “Open My Eyes, Lord”, the Gary Oates conference held in La Linea, Spain, and organized by Bethel Christian Fellowship of Gibraltar.
From the outset there was a real hunger for what the Lord was going to do in these sessions, and those with hungry hearts did not leave disappointed – they […]

Gary Oates: Open my eyes, Lord

1. The book: Normally I am a little averse to people lending me books to read. The reason for this is that my list of books to read is not a short one (Check out my “planned reading” on my blog library here). Nevertheless, every now and then a book comes around […]

Preparing for the one billion soul harvest

Image: Fisherman prepares his nets with Gibraltar as background.
Bill Johnson’s Podcast “Preparing for Increase” has spoken into our lives here at Living Waters in a very prophetic and strategic way. It was as if Isaiah 54:1-3 was written for us for such a time as this.
In our barrenness we are committing ourselves to […]

How can we tell that God is with us

In the height of the Welsh Revival three signs were seen as evidence that God was in their midst:

1. Enormous congregations
2. The union of the different denominations
3. The baptism of the Holy Spirit
The revival was so profound throughout Wales that even the coal miners found that their horses, that had been trained […]

The Holy Ghost 4-point plan

There are certain principles and foundational truths that the Holy Spirit seems to restore each and every time that He inhabits a new realm with His people. I am currently reading “A Diary of Revival” which is a centenary edition of the Welsh Revival of 1904 in which young revivalists like Evan Roberts were […]

A formula for revival

My 7:00AM “power-walk” is about the only exercise that I am getting at the moment (I know, I know). I load my iPod with some Bethel fuel and off I go……..
Some of the testimonies given are so powerful that I now make it a point of choosing to power-walk down the backlanes because […]
