David Hathaway

God wants YOU to be so full of Faith and Power that you can do great wonders and signs wherever you live and work. The Bible says that Stephen, who was appointed by the Apostles to administration, not ministry, was so powerfully filled with the Holy Spirit and with faith, that he did great wonders and miracles among the people!   What an example! This is a tremendous challenge! Too many people loo...

I believe in these last days that the revival we will see will be among the poor, the deprived, the persecuted – and the Kingdom of God will be filled with these people. I’m working in the former communist territories among people who were persecuted and oppressed; I work among the persecuted Jews, the Holocaust survivors. I lived through those days of suffering and persecution under communism, an...

I LIVE in revival! It’s burning within me with a passion, an intensity. I live in revival. But here, in Acts 7, we see persecution. I believe we are going to see in certain areas a massive revival, but at the same time we cannot deny the fact that there will also be massive persecution. And the nearer we get to the coming of the Lord, I believe we have to strengthen ourselves – like Stephen did, f...

You are never alone! Jesus teaches in John 16, ‘You have sorrow now, but I will see you again. Then you will rejoice, and no one can rob you of that joy. The time is coming, indeed it is here now, when you will be scattered, each one going his own way, leaving Me alone. Yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me. Here on earth, you will have many trials, and sorrows. But take heart because...

Jesus says, ASK AND YOU WILL RECEIVE! He says very clearly in Mark 11:23-24, you WILL HAVE what YOU SAY! We have to make that confession of faith! In my life, if I don’t ask, if I don’t make that confession of faith, I don’t get what I want, if I don’t in faith confess it!!! And if I confess it, I get it! I’m trying to encourage you simply to THINK DIFFERENTLY! But don’t just think differently, SP...

God wants YOU to be full of faith and full of the Holy Ghost so that you can work great miracles! In Acts 6, Stephen, who was appointed as an administrator not as an apostle, was so full of faith that many people were healed by him. What an example! This is a tremendous challenge! Too many people think that the 'anointing' only rests on Pastors, Prophets and Evangelists, but no! The example of Ste...

I want to encourage you to THINK differently! But don’t just think differently, SPEAK differently, ACT differently. Get your Bible out and read Ephesians 3:20. And then sit down and begin to pray, because He is able to do EXCEEDING ABUNDANTLY ABOVE ALL that we ask or think - according to the Power that works WITHIN US.

We are called to a lifetime of service to God. There is no retirement, only to be re-fired by the Holy Spirit! I recently celebrated 72 years of full-time ministry, following the moment when I experienced God’s call on my life 3 years earlier in 1947, aged 15, when I surrendered everything to Jesus on the seafront at Brighton. Like the Queen, my call is not something to retire from, but a lifetime...

Exceedingly abundantly ABOVE ALL THAT WE CAN ASK!!! Paul is saying that through Christ, God will do MORE than we can ask. Or even think! Jesus will give us, not only what we’re asking for, but He will fulfil our wildest dreams! Too many of us are restrictive in our prayer. I don’t think we understand the willingness of God through Christ to do SO MUCH for us – if only we would ask!!! 

Prayer is more than just ‘fellowship with the Lord’. We are encouraged to ASK for our needs. The Apostle Paul says, 'God is able to give you ABOVE what you can ask'. Too many Christians are afraid to ask, I don’t know why. I have no hesitation in asking. If there is something I need, I know the Scripture, so I ask! And the Lord answers me! Now if what I am asking for isn’t right, then I don’t get...

Too many of us are restrictive in our prayer. I don’t think we understand the willingness of God through Christ to do SO MUCH for us – if only we would ask!!! In Ephesians 3, having looked at the extent of the love of Christ, Paul is now looking beyond the love of God to the fact that Christ is ABLE to do exceedingly abundantly more… Exceedingly abundantly above… That’s EXPANSIVE! So descriptive…...

Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust Him, and He will help you! I want to encourage you that as you surrender your life to the Lord, and as you hear God’s Voice and obey what He says, God will not only watch over you and protect you, but the things which the devil is trying to do to harm you, God will turn to His Glory.

The love of God is simply beyond description, indescribable, too vast to comprehend. And yet, read with me Ephesians 3:18-21, Paul wants you ‘to be able to comprehend, with all saints, what is the breadth and length and depth and height, and to know, the love of Christ which passes all knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God. Now unto Him who is able to do exceeding abunda...

“We ought to obey God rather than men!” When I came out of the communist prison, a lovely Christian lady accosted me to my face, saying, “Wilson should not have got you out of that prison. You broke the law. You knew you were breaking the law, taking Bibles into the communist countries. But you did it, so you should have stayed in prison!” That was just a few weeks after my release. It wasn’t very...

‘Those who trust in God will never be ashamed!’ I want to remind you. Whatever the circumstances, whatever the difficulties we may be going through, we shall never be ashamed of our faith and our trust in God, and in His Power and in what He is going to do…  

If you commit your life to the Lord, and if you are hearing God’s Voice, and doing what He says, God will not only watch over you and protect you, but the things the devil is trying to do to harm you, He will turn ultimately to His Glory. There is no question, my time in prison was foreknown by God and transformed my life. When I was arrested, I was an unknown Bible smuggler – because you couldn’t...

Don’t be discouraged. I want you to get that Vision of what God can do! Get into your ‘watchtower’ and pray until God answers you and shows you His Power and His Glory! O Father, open people’s eyes, let them get into that place in the ‘watchtower’ where You answer them when they cry to You, “How long are You silent?” O God, be not silent, but show Your Power and Your Glory! In Jesus’ Name. Amen. 

"Fear not, be glad and rejoice, for the Lord will do GREAT THINGS!" This is the vision God is giving me. How strong can I be on this point? And how strong can the Lord be? Because He says to you, “Fear not, because I will do GREAT THINGS!”

I believe that what we are about to see is an even GREATER revelation of God's Power on earth than anything in the past. God’s Power doesn’t diminish just because there’s sin and wickedness in the world. God doesn’t change! God still loves the sinner. He still wants to redeem the earth. That’s why, in the near future, Jesus Christ is coming back – to fulfil every Promise, every Vision!

Looking back over more than 70 years of ministry, seeing the difficult times I’ve been through – God has never failed me! There have been ups and there have been downs in my life, but as the Bible says, "The Lord answered me!" Sometimes in our lives we need the patience to wait for the fulfilment of God’s Promises.

David has recently returned from Armenia where he was able to meet and teach senior pastors from Armenia and Georgia. This is critical as we are planning major evangelism in both countries. Both countries have recently experienced war, Armenia only two years ago. Both are desperate for God’s help and are open for evangelism. Thank you for continuing to support our humanitarian and spiritual relief...

Sometimes it appears God is not answering us. When I was in the prison, 1972-3, I prayed and I prayed. It seemed God didn’t answer. I remember the morning, alone in my cell when I said, “O Lord, I can’t pray anymore. The Heavens are like brass, shut up against me. You don’t answer me!” But in my desperation that day, God DID suddenly answer! Habakkuk begins in Chapter 1:2 saying, “O Lord, how long...

We need to bring back into the Church a sense of sanctification, of consecration, in anticipation that God is going to answer and move… God will move within the Church, when the Church is obedient to His Word. The Israelites had to be obedient to the commands of God. Joshua was prophesying, sanctify yourselves, because when the priests stand in the water with the Ark, the water will dry up! God wi...

David Hathaway's ministry in Ukraine continues to provide humanitarian and spiritual relief to the displaced, and those who have lived under Russian occupation. Daily we distribute bread, water, sanitary items, medicines and other basic supplies. In addition, our staff provide spiritual and emotional support to people broken-down by war and destruction. Weekly we broadcast the Gospel in both the U...

“Sanctify yourselves, because tomorrow God will do wonders among you.... Hereby you will know that the Lord God is among you and He will not fail to drive out before you all the inhabitants of the Land, behold the Ark of the Covenant of the Lord is passing over before you into Jordan.” (Joshua 3.) For Moses, the greatest miracle was the crossing of the Red Sea – (and the whole might of the Egyptia...
