God wants you to be filled with the fire and the Power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus said in Acts 1:5, "For John baptised with water, but in a few days you will be baptised with the Holy Spirit.’ And then in verse 8, He said, "You will receive power, when the Holy Spirit comes on you. And you will be my witnesses to the ends of the earth." Too many people read the Bible, say they believe it, but then...

I know that many of you are experiencing difficulties, firstly Covid and delays receiving medical care, now the cost of living, and the disruption to transport – so many things. We, like you, are compelled to depend on Scripture for help in time of trouble. As fulfilment of God’s strategic plan in the vision which He gave me for Europe many years ago, the main mission is ahead of me – the best is...

I am fascinated by the Roman centurion who came to Jesus saying, "My servant is sick." The immediate response of Jesus was, "I will come to your house." But the centurion says, "No, You don't need to come to my house. Just say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and that one, 'Come,' and he come...

When I pray, whatever I'm praying about – whether I’m praying for health, whether I’m praying over problems, anything – I always pray in the Name of Jesus. Just as Jesus said in John 14:13, “Whatsoever you ask the Father in My Name, that will I do!” My prayer and my requests are in the Name of Jesus! I bring every request in the Name of Jesus: “Father, I’m asking You in Jesus’ Name…”

'Whatsoever you ask in Jesus Name, that He will do, so that the Father might be glorified in the Son.' That’s powerful! In Philippians Paul is saying, God has given Jesus a NAME ABOVE ALL OTHER NAMES – because of His obedience to His Father, because He came and humbled Himself, and was obedient even unto death – in order to fulfil God’s purpose. And, because Jesus was sent to fulfil the purpose of...

Faith in the Name of Jesus will heal every sickness. Peter says in Acts 3, after the lame man was healed at the Temple, "By faith in the Name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus’ Name and the faith that comes through Him that has completely healed him, as you can all see. It’s absolutely clear – the healing came IN THE NAME OF JESUS and THROUGH FAITH IN THAT NAME....

I want to show you the Authority and the Power that is in the Name of Jesus! People ask me how is it that I see so many miracles, so many healings? My life has been truly remarkable, partly because of the length of time that I have been in ministry, and the intensity. Very few people have seen the miracles that I have seen and experienced, and I believe there is a strong Scriptural reason for this...

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!”
