When you surrender your life to the Lord, He will take care of you, as He has done for me these past 93 years. I have been young and now I am old, and His grace has sustained me through it all. Commit your life to the Lord, and He will bring to pass every promise He has spoken over your life. 'The wicked borrow and do not repay, but the righteous give generously; those the Lord blesses will inheri...

God was saying, ‘I want you, David, I want everything you have and everything you are.’ At that moment God did not say, ‘You’re going to be a preacher, you’re going to be an evangelist, you’re going to be a missionary.’ It was to say, ‘David, I want all – or nothing,’ and I was just 15 years old! That’s where we begin with God – it’s all or nothing. You can’t play with God; you can’t fool with Him...

'Do not fret because of those who are evil or be envious of those who do wrong; for like the grass they will soon wither, like green plants they will soon die away. Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: he will make your righteo...

I remember the day when the Lord challenged me to serve Him. I was 15, on holiday on the South Coast of England, walking on the sea-front with some young Christians and I couldn’t enter into the fun that they were having because God was speaking to me – and the devil was speaking to me. The devil was saying, ‘Don’t listen, it’s OK, things are fine. You’re doing well – you got saved when you were 8...

If God is going to use you – and God wants to use every one of you – if you’re not in a position where He can use you, then examine your spiritual life and ask the question, why are you saved? Because you are saved to serve!

Why do we need the Holy Spirit? Jesus said it is the Spirit who convicts the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment to come (John 16:8). - It is not the preacher who convicts of sin, it is the Holy Spirit! Without this 'Baptism' we are powerless and ineffective. The whole purpose of the Baptism in the Holy Spirit is to fill us with power so that we can win the lost! The 'Baptism' is not so...

Sometimes God has to do something unusual in our lives to attract our attention, to make us turn aside from the cares of the world, from the responsibilities that we have, from those business problems, from our sickness, our pain, and all those other problems we’ve got. God wants us to turn aside like Moses and look at Him.

God needs people. He needs people to give financially, especially He needs businessmen, who will turn their businesses over to work for Him and produce money for the Kingdom. God will honour and prosper businessmen when they get that vision to devote their money to winning souls. And we need people who will intercede and pray – I couldn’t achieve what I do without people all over the world who are...

Our world is in turmoil and distress. Millions of people are in distress. I want to give you a word of comfort from Psalms. When I was in prison for Bible smuggling, I was not allowed to read my Bible. Months after my sentence, I was able to 'smuggle' it into my cell. I was desperate to read God's Word. After nine months without it, where would I start to read? After a few moments I decided to sta...

I want to challenge you to rise up and do something for the Glory of God in the Power of the Holy Ghost and in the Name of Jesus. We’re living in a time of real spiritual warfare – not just saying, ‘Oh, I’m going to bind the power of the devil’ – but getting out there where the devil is and trouncing him head-on until we get the victory! I believe in action. God has called us into the kingdom, and...

Our faith is not faith at all until it is put to the test! Without testing, without proving it, it’s just something in the mind. Peter wrote, ‘...so that the TESTING OF YOUR FAITH, being more precious than gold that perishes, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ!’ (1 Peter 1.6-7).  We cannot live from meeting to meeting, jus...

We've got to be changed, transformed, by the fire and the power of the Holy Spirit! If you want to be filled with the Holy Spirit, if you want to be filled with the power of God, you have got to be emptied first; only then can God fill you with all His power, fire and glory! God baptised me with the Holy Ghost and fire! And I want to tell you that the fire and power is stronger now than it was 70...

'Now they departed and came back to Moses and Aaron and all the congregation of the children of Israel in the Wilderness of Paran, at Kadesh; they brought back word to them and to all the congregation, and showed them the fruit of the land. Then they told him, and said: “We went to the land where you sent us. It truly flows with milk and honey, and this is its fruit. Nevertheless the people who dw...

An interesting ‘window’ on faith is found in Numbers 13. Moses and the whole of Israel had halted on the borders of the Promised Land after their arduous journey. There they were, within sight of their goal, the fulfilment of all God’s promises within their grasp. Surely this was all that they could ask for, the ultimate reward for the sufferings which they had endured both in the last days in Egy...

(Original Air Date 10 April 2015): God is calling on you to pray for this nation! 'If My people will humble themselves and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven...' God is talking to you and me, not to the sinner: God is wanting His people to repent! When we pray, God says, 'I will answer!' - That is the Covenant we have with Him. When Solomon based...

"Thus says the Lord: 'If you can break My covenant with the day and My covenant with the night, so that there will not be day and night in their season, then My covenant may also be broken with David My servant, so that he shall not have a son to reign on his throne, and with the Levites, the priests, My ministers. As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, nor the sand of the sea measured, so will...

All my life I have believed the prophecy of Joel which refers to two outpourings of the Holy Spirit – the First Rain and the Latter Rain (Joel 2:23). The First being the Day of Pentecost, the Latter being now! In v28 Joel gives the fuller explanation of that ‘Latter Rain’. I have always believed this latter Rain MUST be GREATER than the First – I have experienced it in my ministry, and YOU can hav...

In 2003, when I was diagnosed with lung cancer, God said to me, ‘David, you’ve got a mountain in your life that you’ve got to move, and that mountain is to get that cancer out from your lung. If you can believe that without an operation you can be completely healed, then nothing will be impossible from there on.’ Now desperately seeking God’s answer from Scripture, I was reading from Jeremiah 33.6...

God wants to give you a message of forgiveness and restoration, a message of love and of healing. 2000 years ago Jesus went to the cross and died, but He didn't stay in the grave; just as the Scriptures foretold, Jesus rose from the dead. You cannot see Him, I cannot see Him, but I know He is alive. Because He lives again we can come out of the past into a new life, a new hope. Even as you listen...

Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me? ...Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know, (Jeremiah 32.27, 33.3, NKJV). The Word of the Lord came to Jeremiah whilst he was shut up in prison, ‘Thus saith the Lord, the Maker – that formed Heaven and earth – to establish it, “Call unto Me and I will answer!”’ Com...

The Bible says that Christ’s atonement for our sin is also His atonement for sickness and disease, that the cross He carried was our healing. Why not carry that cross of healing (1 Peter 2.24; Isaiah 53)? Sin and sickness are not from God, both come from the devil. The purpose of the first coming of Jesus was to make a way of escape from the evil which Satan and ultimately man, by his disobedience...

(Original Air Date 27 March 2015): 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...

Isaiah 53.5 says Jesus was wounded for our sin, bruised for our iniquity and with His stripes we are healed. Jesus healed all that were sick to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah. So healing is to fulfil Bible prophecy! I talk about Bible prophecy, I write about it in Prophetic Vision magazine, but part of Bible prophecy is healing the sick. I believe Bible prophecy. Some people say that...

When Jesus came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, ‘Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.’ Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. ‘I am willing,’ he said. ‘Be clean!’ Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. Then Jesus said to him, ‘See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest a...

(Original Air Date 27 March 2015) We need the fire of the Spirit to bring revival to our lives. We must cry out from the depth of our soul: 'Holy Spirit we need You, fire deep inside.' I was so excited when I read in Leviticus 6:13 that when the priests lit the fire they were told it must never go out! I received the fire of God when I was 13 and it has never gone out! I've seen too many people wh...
