I started preaching as a boy aged 13, nothing happened, nobody repented – and my father said, “You NEED the Holy Spirit.” When I received the Holy Spirit, it transformed me! I became a preacher and an evangelist in the school where I was. I told the boys the truth, that without Christ you go to hell. That there’s only one way into Heaven – through Jesus. Jesus said you must be born again. There’s...

God takes the reluctant hero and commands HIM to do the impossible! This experience Moses had with God was so powerful, he could not refuse to obey! If only our encounters with God were as powerful and life-changing as this man’s was! BUT after God commanded Moses, He warned him that Pharaoh would NOT listen to him and would NOT release Israel! What a shock! The only preparation for Moses was that...

In Nazareth, v22, the people were intrigued by Jesus, but they knew Him, he grew up in there, with them. Isn’t this Joseph’s son? And they became so indignant, they tried to throw Him off the cliff on which the town was built! But of course, He passed through the midst of them and carried on His way down to Capernaum, v32, where again, they were intrigued and astonished at His doctrine – BECAUSE H...

God chose an 80-year old man, born into a slave family, yet brought up in the king’s palace, who became a murderer, fled from the nation and spent his life as a shepherd looking after sheep in the desert! God told him, I have chosen YOU to go to Pharaoh and tell him to release all his slaves, empty the prison camps, set more than two million people free! Moses protested – I can’t do it, I’m not an...

Challenge the greatest leader in the world, the most powerful nation on earth, demand that they release your persecuted, suffering people, command Pharaoh to let them go!’ Because Moses gave every possible reason why he could not do it, God had to use a lot of persuasion before Moses would agree – but then God said, ‘When you go, I will cause Pharaoh to rebel, he will not listen to you or do what...

Everyone wants the anointing, we all sit in prayer meetings, but few will make the sacrifice of a life devoted to God. There is a price to pay in service to God. The Apostle Paul describes this sacrifice as 'reasonable' (Romans 12:1). Once God fills you with fire, it's your responsibility to keep the fire burning! The older I get, the more power I have, the more fire I have! I'm more on fire now t...

From one side of the world to the other, from America to Russia, from the north to the south – in the whole world – has ever any man seen a greater miracle than this happen, visibly, on earth? The answer is no! It is the greatest miracle ever. And it happened just forty years ago. What was it?  This is the background: God chose a baby, born to a slave woman, who became the son of the king’s daught...

Moses is 120 years old, but forty years before this something had happened which brought a bigger change to the nation of Israel than anything ever experienced in any nation before or since – the moment when God, for the first time, began to demonstrate the greatness of His power by working the most outstanding, visible miracles in front of the most powerful nation in the whole earth. Moses asks t...

I’m looking at the start of the ministry of Jesus. In Luke 4:14 it says, ‘Jesus returned in the Power of the Spirit into Galilee, and there went out a fame of Him through all the region round about and He taught in their synagogues being glorified by all.’ He’s been baptised by John; and full of the Holy Spirit, He’s been led by the Spirit into the wilderness where He was tempted for 40 days by th...

I want to share with you something that God has been saying strongly to ME since 1992 and which is powerfully motivating MY life. And I want to give YOU the same strong spiritual challenge which Moses gave to Israel in Deuteronomy 4:32 – ‘Ask now of the days that are past, since the day that God created man on the earth, and ask from the one side of Heaven to the other, WHETHER THERE HAS BEEN ANY...

The centurion KNEW Jesus had authority to heal his servant, just by the word He spoke! But Jesus was amazed at the centurion! Absolutely amazed. He said in 8:10, “I haven’t found such faith anywhere!” Not in Galilee, not in Syria, Decapolis nor Trans-Jordan, not in Judea nor Jerusalem, not in all the places where He was working with Jewish people. He said bluntly, “I’ve not found such great faith...

Moses asks God, What is Your Name? God has already described Himself to Moses as the God of his ancestors: the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. Now in Exodus 3 God says, "I Am Who I Am and What I Am, and I Will Be What I Will Be," (verse 14, Amplified Bible).

The miracles God could do 2000 years ago, He can do the same today; He can even do greater! When I had throat cancer, God cut it out as if with a knife!

You have power over evil spirit, every sickness, every difficulty. Jesus said in Mark 16:17-18, 'These signs shall follow them that believe; in My Name they shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall lay their hands on the sick, and they shall recover.' When the devil comes, call upon the Name of Jesus! When you are weak in body, in the Name of Jesus be strong! When you a...

When I was in prison for Bible smuggling, I challenged God to release me, just as He had done for Paul and Silas. God answered prayer, and sent the British Prime Minister to set me free!

When I was in a communist prison, I challenged God, I said, "If You could get Paul and Silas out of prison, then I want You to work a miracle for me! Is Your power the same today? If it is, I want you to get me out of prison!"

In the early days, when I had been a pastor for 15 years already, the Lord said to me, “Shut up! Stop talking, I’m tired of listening to you!” For the Lord to say that to me through the Holy Spirit was pretty damning! He said, “Go out and DO everything you talk about and tell other people to do – AND DON’T COME BACK TILL YOU’VE DONE IT!” My whole life has been putting into practice what I have bel...

If you want to be filled with the Holy Spirit and with all the Power of God, then you have to be emptied first, then God can fill you. 

I want to thank you for all your support over so many years. Together we have seen the most incredible miracles, the hundreds of thousands who have found Christ, and the hundreds of churches founded. The miracles I’ve seen were not merely of healing, but storms stopped, miraculous provision of aircraft, a life of faith overcoming all opposition especially under the communist oppression. 

In Ch 8.1-4, He comes down the mountain, followed by the crowds. A leper comes to Him and says to Him – I’m quite fascinated by this – “If You WANT, You CAN heal me of my leprosy!” What a strong, bold statement! Leprosy was incurable! So, already at this stage, there is an incredible level of faith in what He can do! And yes, of course the leper was healed. Jesus says to him, “I will!” And He does...

Why do I see miracles? I WANT miracles, I LIVE for miracles. I live to see the Glory and the Power of God! Often it’s difficult, but I won’t give up, I won’t let go of God until He works the miracles, because God cannot fail.

When I think of the number of troubles I have had – being in a communist prison for a year, having cancer twice, having gunmen sent on three occasions to shoot me – God uses every circumstance to His glory, He uses the problems and the difficulties in our lives to convince us miraculously!

I want you to be the strongest believers anyway in the world: people with fire, people with power, people who pray, people who will change the world! Mark 11:22-23 is so revolutionary, so powerful, it will change your life! Jesus said, "Have faith in God! Truly I say unto you, whoever you are, look up, see the mountain over there - if you have got faith in God, you will say to that mountain 'be ca...

God was calling Moses, ‘I want you to go to Pharaoh and tell him, “Let My people go”. Just do it.’ Please understand – Moses was a human being, no different from you. Alright, he was born into a humble family but adopted by a woman of wealth, and then he had some problems and now is living in relative poverty out in the desert, with a family and responsibilities like you, so he’s human! And he arg...

One of the battles God has is to get our attention, and with Moses God had to do something extraordinary: Moses was looking after the sheep – he had got himself married, had some kids and was busy, tied up with all the problems that you have, working hard to get enough money to feed his growing family. When suddenly, out in the desert, God appeared to him in a burning bush. What attracted Moses wa...
