Why are you afraid? God is in control! When Jesus is in the boat with you, even if He is asleep, it doesn't matter the severity of the storm, one word from Jesus and all will be well. All will be well with your family, health, finances, employment. Jesus will speak peace into every tumultuous situation. I believe the challenge to every one of us today is, why are you afraid? What are you afraid of...

Your sacrificial giving in this time of soaring costs and financial hardship, has enabled a powerful event to take place in Batumi on the Black Sea coast of Georgia in the Caucasus, where we are working together with a missionary church of Moslem converts, Adjarians who themselves all came to Christ through powerful miracles of healing or deliverance from drugs and alcohol.  'Fire of Revival' and...

Paul opens by greeting the church in Corinth and reminding them that they are called by God to belong to Jesus Christ, enriched with spiritual gifts as they wait for His return. He thanks God for His grace toward them and assures them that God is faithful and will keep them strong. Paul then addresses a serious problem: divisions in the church. Believers are lining up behind different leaders and...

My father said that it is not just preaching which brings people to repentance. He said you’ve not yet received the Holy Spirit; he told me, the Bible says Jesus taught His disciples the first lesson in evangelism when He said, “When the Holy Spirit is come, He (not you, David), He, will convict the world of sin, righteousness and judgement.” My father said, you need the Holy Spirit. I want to emp...

Aged 13, I became anxious to evangelise in my church. Of course I was not allowed. Eventually after much persuasion, it was decided that, as they did not use the church on Fridays, I could have it then. Together with the other young people we advertised, arranged a worship group, and I was the preacher. It all went according to plan, except for one thing. That night I went home really distressed a...

If you are believing for a healing miracle, Jesus said in Mark 16:17-18, 'And these signs will follow those who believe, they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.' Jesus doesn't lie. The Bible doesn't lie. If you believe, put your hand on your sickness and pray for your healing in Jesus Name. First, I will pray for you, then I will lead you in prayer. 'Healing Stream' & 'Holy is...

When God wanted to bring His people out of Egypt, Pharaoh said, ‘No!’ God used Moses until Pharaoh said, ‘Yes!’ God uses men. But only men and women willing to yield to His authority. I am not a big man with a little God – I am a little man with a big God! I may be a little David with a Goliath of a problem, but with my God I can kill him! Take the land! Possess the promises of God. So many believ...

Spiritual warfare is not merely against the devil, it is also when you fight your own unbelief. My God answers prayer. If you are totally convinced, God CANNOT fail. But it takes a lot of faith to believe God to work miracles.  Fight against the devil by taking authority over him in Jesus’ Name. Command him to get out and the problem to go! Exercise the gift of faith, NOW, in a new way – this is n...

Now if Christ is proclaimed as raised from the dead, how can some of you say there is no resurrection of the dead? If there is no resurrection of the dead, then Christ has not been raised, and if Christ has not been raised, then our proclamation is in vain and your faith is in vain...  If Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile, and you are still in your sins. Then those also who have die...

You have to make a conscious decision, either to continue to live ‘normally’ or to live in a faith-experience of letting God’s Word govern your decisions. It is a command of God that we must possess and receive all that God has for us. It is not an option – obey! It takes faith to possess all that God has given and act on it. Real faith does not come easily, but it is a specific gift from God thro...

What happens when we die? As Christians we believe in the resurrection of Christ. We know from reading the Gospel that there were many witnesses to the resurrection. And because Christ was raised, we can know with certainty that we too will be raised from the dead.  Paul argues that if there is no resurrection, then Christ has not been raised, and if Christ has not been raised, faith is futile, si...

It is easy for us as believers to read and hear about these things that 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 miracles like speaking in tongues and healing by saying either that these were in the past, or that they were ‘dispensational’, that they can only happen at cert...

When I first realised that the promises of both the Old and New Testaments were not just for the Jews in the past and for the first disciples, but also for me as an inheritor of the same promises as a ‘son of God’, it opened up a whole new experience for me. Whilst receiving my healing from throat cancer many years ago began to lead me into a more positive experience, it was the miracle which fina...

How many of you want the fire and power of God in your life? I am going to pray that God will fill you afresh: 'Father, look at these people. Satisfy the desire of their heart for more of You. Fall afresh on their lives. Fill them with the fire of the Holy Spirit, and let that fire spread from their lives into the lives of their churches, communities and nations. I speak over you new life, new hop...

Everything in the Bible can happen today! Don’t limit God. I want to challenge you to a new kind of faith. We are commanded to go in and possess all the blessings which God has promised. Get into the Word of God, search for and mark every promise that you want in your life in red – then every promise you don’t want, cross it out – no, NO!! I want you to have the faith to go and take them ALL! I he...

God has given us so many promises, it is not presumptuous to accept them by faith, then go and take them. Too many sit and wait, asking, and never receiving. I remember as a boy the time when I wanted to be filled with the Holy Spirit. The old believers said, ‘Wait, we must have waiting meetings.’ But I am impatient and soon became tired of waiting. I said, ‘Easter is coming, I will go to London t...

What happens when we die? As Christians we believe in the resurrection of Christ. We know from reading the Gospel that there were many witnesses to the resurrection. And because Christ was raised, we can know with certainty that we too will be raised from the dead.  1 Corinthians 15 is Paul’s extended teaching on the resurrection, written to correct confusion in the Corinthian church and to anchor...

‘The Lord has given you the land! Possess it! Go in armed ready for war!’ (Deuteronomy 3:18). It is God’s command, not a request, to go and take the land! I see this as a challenge in my personal life as well as in my ministry in Russia. Many ask why I see miracles of healing, thousands repent, and revival comes. When God sent me to Russia He said, ‘GO – take the land!’ There is no choice – He com...

In this special episode, recorded live at Revive Now! A Day of Prayer and Worship, held on 11 April. David speaks on Holy Ghost Fire. 'When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. Then there appeared to them divided tongues, as of...

Romans 1:16 says, “For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.” But where is that power? I have more spiritual power and authority now than at any other time in my life. When you truly know God and live for Him, the power doesn’t fade. In fact, the older I get, the greater the fire and the strength of His power within me. Here’s...

I want to read to you one verse, Romans 1:16, For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.  What a challenge this is! Even in times of crisis, I am not ashamed of the Gospel – and I don’t want you to be ashamed either. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is where the power of God is revealed. All the power of God – the strength to transfor...

God's message to you is love, forgiveness, healing; He promises to restore the years the locusts have eaten. Jesus will bind up your wounds and heal your bruises. 'To all who mourn in Israel, He will give beauty for ashes, joy instead of mourning, praise instead of despair ... You will rebuild the ancient ruins, repairing cities long ago destroyed ... Instead of shame and dishonour, you will inher...

When I’m in Austria during the summer, I like to walk the ski slopes. There’s one route that stretches 22 kilometres, and it’s not easy. It takes effort, endurance, and determination. So how do I make it? By setting a steady pace – and then keeping it, step by step by step. It’s the same in your spiritual life. The journey doesn’t begin at the summit; it begins with a single step. And then another...

I challenge you: press beyond where you are in your faith and in your prayer life. Don’t settle for where you’ve been. Let’s keep climbing. Let’s go higher. So how do you get up this “mountain”? There’s no chairlift, no shortcut, no easy ride to the top – only one way forward. When I’m in Austria during the summer, I like to walk the ski slopes. There’s one route that stretches 22 kilometres, and...

In this special episode, recorded live at Revive Now! A Day of Prayer, Renewal and Revival, held on 11 April, David speaks from Joel chapter 2, on 'The Way to Revival'. "And it shall come to pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions. And also on My menservants and on My...
