The Holy Spirit is in me and you! | Two Minute Daily Devotional

There is only one Holy Spirit – HE is IN me! Not outside, I am not waiting for another Holy Spirit – HE, the Spirit who raised up Jesus from the dead, who was in Paul and Peter, that mighty, miracle-working power of the Great God I am boasting about, is in me now, and HE has been in me for over fifty years! I cannot receive any greater power than that I already have, in me now!
That is why I do not seek a new experience and that is why the FIRE has not gone out for fifty years! Yes, I am different now to what I was fifty years ago. But notice HE is not different, I am! During fifty years HE has cleaned out a lot of my self and pride, my own works, and because I am not perfect, He will continue to do so until I am raptured into glory. However, HE does not change – I do!
Jesus said, ‘He that believeth on Me, out of his inner being shall flow rivers of living water.’ The Holy Spirit is the source, but the Word of God says that when we have received the Holy Spirit, the source is in us! External experiences are of the world, the flesh or the devil. 

Baptism of Fire and Power | Two Minute Daily Devotional

Many believers are seeking a new anointing, a new power, something extra to what they already have, a Toronto Blessing, or other phenomena. I went to Jerusalem forty years ago without receiving a new anointing. Why? What I am seeking is already within me! I have it now, I am not waiting for a new anointing, I have all the power I need in my spirit now! How? Well fifty years ago I was seeking to be filled, baptised with the Holy Spirit. When I received, it was a manifestation of fire, of power, speaking with tongues like they did on the Day of Pentecost – and miracles soon began to follow. What a baptism of Power and of Fire I received that day! I received the Holy Spirit, all the mighty Power of God, everything. Now that powerful anointing which before had been outside of me, that third person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, was now IN ME! There is only one Holy Spirit – HE is IN me! Not outside, I am not waiting for another Holy Spirit – HE, the Spirit who raised up Jesus from the dead, who was in Paul and Peter, that mighty, miracle-working power of the Great God I am boasting about, is in me now.

Forgiveness (with Vinesong) | Legacy Episode

Forgiveness is at the heart of the Gospel, yet it is one of the hardest things for us to do. How can we forgive others when they have hurt us so badly? But unless we forgive, we ourselves cannot be forgiven; Jesus taught in Matthew 6, 'If you forgive those who have sinned against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.' Our example of how to love and forgive is Jesus. Romans 5:8-10 teaches, 'God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. For since we were restored to friendship with God by the death of His Son while we were still His enemies, we will certainly be delivered from eternal punishment by His life. So now we can rejoice in our wonderful new relationship with God - all because of what our Lord Jesus Christ has done for us in making us friends of God.' - We must forgive and renew friendship, just as God did for us.

We must show who Jesus is | Two Minute Daily Devotional

The challenge today is for believers to demonstrate who the REAL Jesus is. It’s a responsibility we cannot refuse or delegate, because the people in the world are confused by religion, by all the different philosophies – we’re living in a multi-cultural society and they don’t know who the REAL Jesus is! Religions are merely a man-made interpretation, therefore there are many. Theology is the theory without the practice. The God I know, admire, worship and serve is a God of Fire – Power – Action. And He requires action and obedience from us so others can find this real God. 
There is a real danger that in our attempts to attract others into our faith we tend to water it down, whereas desperate people need strong faith in a strong powerful God. So this weak Gospel repels rather than attracts those we should be winning. I believe the reason we see so many young people converted in Russia is that they are looking for a real, convincing faith, which they find, and they are converted to faith in this God of power.

A God of love and a God of Power | Two Minute Daily Devotional

I like to boast about the power of my God because He is a God of action! Yes, God is a God of love, of compassion. But the God I know and serve, the God of the Bible, is not passive, but militant in action on our behalf. A God of love, but also a God of power.
Today it’s time that we began to rise up and recognise the power and authority that we have in Jesus’ Name. Power to preach a life-changing Gospel, power to bring healing miracles in order that He might receive the glory, and so that we as ‘ordinary’ people might have something dynamic to demonstrate in our lives! When Jesus healed the paralytic man (Matthew 9:6) He said, ‘So that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth... rise up and walk!’ Today we must become men and women of action to continue the demonstration begun by Jesus, so that non-believers will desire to have what we have!
The challenge today is for believers to demonstrate who the REAL Jesus is. 

Jesus is risen (with Vinesong) | Legacy Episode

Behold He is alive! Christ is risen from the dead! He broke the chains of death, He is risen, risen from the dead!
I believe in life after death! The Scripture teaches that death is not the end, it is only a beginning, the path to life. There is a resurrection of the dead. - That is the urgency of the message of Jesus, the message to every one of you listening. Jesus said, 'After three days I will live again' - and on the third day He arose, and He is alive forevermore. And that is the evidence that there is life after death for every one of us who will believe.

Jesus is alive | Two Minute Daily Devotional

The message to all of you listening is one of comfort – especially for those who have lost loved ones: a mother, a father, even a child. Before Jesus died, He promised that after three days, He would rise again. And on the third day, He came out of the grave – He is alive. This is the assurance that there is life after death for all who believe in Him.

At the Cross (with Vinesong) | Legacy Episode

If you let the power of God touch you, by a miracle He will change your life. You need the touch and the power of God. But first you have to trust Him. You have to believe He can work the miracle. The Gospel is the power of God to change lives. God can touch you, He can change your life. There is no limit to what God can do when you trust Him. 
If you want God to change your life say this prayer with me: 'On the cross my Jesus died. You gave Your life for all mankind. On that great day my sins You bore, Jesus the Christ, Saviour of mine. Before Your throne, oh God I stand, forgiven and free. You've given me eternal life. For me You died, Prince of Glory rescued me.'

Life After Death | Two Minute Daily Devotional

I believe in life after death! The Scripture teaches that death is not the end, it is only a beginning. There is a resurrection of the dead. Death is only the path to life. And that is the urgency of the message of Christ to everyone of us. Those of us who have lost family members: mother, father, some have lost their children – God sent Jesus: He was born in Bethlehem, grew up in Nazareth, died in Jerusalem, and on the third day He arose. And His resurrection is proof there is life after death. 

God Will Change Your Life | Two Minute Daily Devotional

If you let the Power of God touch you, God will change your life by a miracle. You need the touch and the Power of God. But you have to trust Him. You have to believe that God can work the miracle. 
I have seen so many miracles that have changed people’s lives. And that is the Power of the Gospel. God changes us. God can touch you; He can change your life. God can heal your sickness. He can forgive your sin. God can break the Power of the devil and set your free. There is no limit to the Power of God. But first we must understand who Jesus is – He is alive today to work miracles in your life. 

The overflow (with Vinesong) | Legacy Episode

Over the coming months, as we begin to pray and seek God, we will see His power like never before. God will pour out a blessing so great that you will not have room enough to contain it, but first, you must give all that you are to Him. This blessing is greater than money, God will pour out love, joy, peace, favour, opportunity, miracles, healing, deliverance, victory, the Holy Spirit. The more you give to Him, the greater the blessing in your life. 'Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, and try Me now in this," says the Lord of hosts, "If I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be room enough to receive it.' (Malachi 3:10, NKJV.)

Look To The Future! Something Greater Is Coming! | Two Minute Daily Devotional

The miracle that defeated the power of the devil in your life, that broke the power of sin when you got saved, when God bound the power of the devil and took you from slavery and brought you into the Kingdom of God – is like the miracle Moses saw!
But there is more!
Yes, Moses recalls the greatest miracle ever seen, but – the prophet Jeremiah (16:14) speaks about the FUTURE, when he says that something is about to happen: ‘Behold the days come, says the Lord, that it shall no more be said, the Lord lives that brought up the children out of the land of Egypt. God says, there will come a day in the future when everything in the Bible will be eclipsed by the light of the miracle that I am about to do. Your past will be nothing, compared with what I am going to do – don’t look at the past, look at the future!’ 
God IS once more going to show His power on earth and glorify the Name of His Son by the greatest miracles ever seen! In your lifetime, in mine, by the grace of God!

Faith in Action | Day of Prayer in Lviv, Ukraine, March 2026

On Sunday, 29th March, pastors and bishops from across the Lviv region gathered together, along with chaplains, military representatives, and official guests from the city administration, recognising this as a critical moment for Ukraine. More than 1,500 filled the hall. A choir and live orchestra of 120 musicians contributed to a powerful atmosphere of God’s presence. David’s representative in Ukraine, Vadim Preobrazhenskiy, shared a message about God’s Mercy which has united and transformed the nation in the despair of war, and in the biggest historical challenges Ukraine has ever faced.

God Has Delivered You Into A Promised Land | Two Minute Daily Devotional

In Moses, God was demonstrating the power that is poured on, and through, the evangelist. Moses was the world’s first evangelist and one of the greatest, because in one crusade he delivered two million people from the slavery of the devil and brought them into the Promised Land that God had given them. God did it the way He always does – by the impossible! But this is also a picture of the miracle that happens in the conversion of every believer.
I have a burning ambition to live to see more of the Power, more of the Glory of God in this world, here, than ever seen by Moses. The miracle that defeated the power of the devil in your life, that broke the power of sin when you got saved, when God bound the power of the devil and took you from slavery and brought you into the Kingdom of God – is like the miracle Moses saw!
Your past will be nothing, compared with what God is going to do – don’t look at the past, look at the future!

You need the Holy Spirit | Lessons from Luke 4 (Part 3)

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 no other way! Saved by the Power of the Blood! That’s the truth. Good works don’t save you, being ‘good’ doesn’t save you. We’re not born ‘good’. The Bible says ALL have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. Repent and be baptised in the Name of Jesus – that’s the Gospel I preach, that’s the way into the Kingdom. Two of the boys in my class went on to become preachers. I hadn’t been to Bible College – but I had received the Power of the Holy Spirit to preach the Gospel!
In the synagogue in Capernaum, v33, there was a man with an unclean spirit, a devil, which cried out, “You are Jesus of Nazareth! Have You come to destroy us? I know You are the Holy One of God!” (Even devils know who Jesus is – even though the people in Nazareth didn’t know or recognise Him for who He really is.) Jesus commands the evil spirit to come out of the man, and the devil came out of him and hurt him not. The people in Capernaum were amazed, “What Word is this, for with Authority and Power He commands unclean spirits and they come out!” 
Jesus left the synagogue and went to Peter’s house where He healed Peter’s mother-in-law. By the end of the day the people who’d been in the synagogue brought all their sick family and friends to Him and He laid hands on every one of them and ALL were healed.
I want you to understand that when we have the Anointing and Power of the Holy Spirit, when the Spirit of the Lord is on us, we have Authority. The reason I was able to do all those crazy things in the former Soviet Union under communism is because I have Authority – from the Holy Spirit! Even the hardened communists, my biggest opponents recognised the Authority that I had. We are Christ’s Ambassadors; in His Name we have ALL the Authority of HIS Kingdom through the Power of the Holy Spirit. Use it!

Commanded To Do The Impossible | Two Minute Daily Devotional

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 he had met with God in the fire. Now he has a job he doesn’t want – and God says, Pharaoh will NOT do what you ask! God actually says, I will MAKE him refuse you! This is an amazing story – it changed my life! And it can change YOUR life! 
The only qualifications Moses had were the fire and the command of God! And with those two things the whole life of Moses – and the nation – were transformed!
