God has a purpose in your adversity (Isaiah 30:20-21)
Monday Mar 22, 2021
Monday Mar 22, 2021
We were created by God to fulfil a Purpose! In your life, God sees and God knows the future. I want to encourage you to seek the Lord. Recognise from Isaiah 30, that although the Lord give you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction in your life, your ‘teachers’ will not be removed from you, but you will continue to see the way through – and your ears will hear a Voice behind you saying, “This is the way, walk in it!” All my life I’ve heard that Voice. And today I’m hearing that Voice again, knowing that it gives me the confidence to live through the adversity and the affliction, because I have heard! Even in this God is saying, “This is the way, walk in it!” I pray God will give you the courage!

Look beyond your suffering to Jesus (Ephesians 1:3&17, Pt3)
Friday Feb 05, 2021
Friday Feb 05, 2021
Look beyond your suffering, your sickness, your pain, beyond the weakness of the flesh. I want you to begin to live in anticipation of the Glory that is to come. When I came out of that communist prison with my experience in there of the Glory, I knew that there is something far more than anything the world can offer. Everything the world can offer is transient, it lasts for a time and then it’s gone. Our hope transcends, comes above all our earthly panic and pain!

Chosen by God before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4, Pt2)
Monday Feb 01, 2021
Monday Feb 01, 2021
God chose us in Christ, before the foundation of the world! We have to understand the foreknowledge of God! BEFORE we were born, when we were in our mother’s womb, God foreordained a plan and a purpose for our lives! That we should be ‘holy and without blame before Him in love’! We live one day at a time, yet God sees all our days. I cannot over-emphasise the peace that I have, and the peace that you should have - and this peace is based on God’s foreknowledge!

Our confidence is in Christ
Monday Jan 25, 2021
Monday Jan 25, 2021
Our confidence is in Christ! When we have faith in God, He takes away our fear. In Christ we have no fear of the past, the future, no fear of the virus, no fear of the devil – we have confidence in God! Scripture says, don’t throw away your confidence! Keep that confidence in the reconciliation we have with God – nothing can break our relationship with God, no evil can destroy what we have, we are one with God, reconciled in Christ – and that’s why Jesus Christ is so important in our lives!

Follow the Voice of God
Monday Jan 18, 2021
Monday Jan 18, 2021
God already knows the future; His plans and purposes cannot be thwarted by pandemic or economic collapse. Speaking through Isaiah, God says, ‘Though the Lord give you the bread of adversity, and the water of affliction… Thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it.’ (Isaiah 30:20-21.) The path that we are walking now, God has said, ‘This is the way, walk in it!’ I want to encourage you, follow Him! God has prepared your future!

Reconciliation through recreation
Monday Jan 11, 2021
Monday Jan 11, 2021
If any man be in Christ, he is a new creation, the old has passed away, all things have become new! Don’t question it, don’t doubt it. If we have become a new creature, then we have lost all ties to the old. People come to me and I have to tell them, if you have come to Christ, the past is forgiven, it’s dead. That’s what God says. But some people have been told that, because of their past, and also because of their parents and ancestors and what they have done in their past, they are not free. No! This is a lie.
When you come to Christ the WHOLE of the past is dead, gone. Whether you were a drug addict, an alcoholic, or whether in your family tree there was witchcraft or freemasonry – all that is gone! You are literally a new creation by faith in Christ. You do not have a tattered, battered old life, but a NEW life in Christ. By faith in Him, we become sons and daughters of God. It's a miracle!

A Glorious Future (New Year Message)
Wednesday Dec 30, 2020
Wednesday Dec 30, 2020
This New Year don’t look back on 2020, rather, realise that the tomorrow we have is more glorious than our yesterdays. The future in front of us becomes more and more glorious, and powerful, and precious. Paul encourages us, ‘I press towards the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.’ Philippians 3.14. It echoes what he said in v13, ‘I don’t count that I have apprehended’ I want to encourage you, wherever you are, whatever you’ve achieved, always keep this sense that there is something more in front of you. Keep pressing forward!
Let me pray for you: "Lord encourage the listeners of this programme, to not look at the problems in their lives, but to look to the future! I pray for a glorious future for everyone, that we will press forward, however hard it is, that we will climb to that higher height, and even in this coming year, spiritually, even materially, we will reach a higher level. Lord, lift me up and let me stand on higher ground, a higher place than I have found. Plant my feet on higher ground. There is so much more that God can do in your life and mine! God bless you! Amen!"

It's all about Jesus (Christmas Message #2)
Wednesday Dec 23, 2020
Wednesday Dec 23, 2020
It’s all about Jesus! I want us to forget the problems of 2020, and focus on Jesus, our problem-solver! Let’s remember the Christ of Christmas. Just as when we take Communion, we remember the death and resurrection of Jesus, so at Christmas we must remember Jesus divested Himself of all His heavenly glory: the ‘Word became flesh and dwelt among us’. The angel instructed Joseph, “You shall call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.” The very Name of Jesus means salvation: salvation from our sins; salvation from our sicknesses; salvation from all that troubles us.

Christ IN us (Christmas Message #1)
Wednesday Dec 16, 2020
Wednesday Dec 16, 2020
I want to encourage you this Christmas with the Words of Jesus, “Be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28.20.) Whatever hardship you are experiencing, Christ is with you! Although 2020 has been especially difficult with pandemic, lockdown and isolation, it doesn’t change the message of Christmas, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord.” I want to remind you that this Christmas we are celebrating that Christ lives in you! He is with you and will be until that day when He takes us into the Kingdom. His promise is that He will never leave or forsake you.

God will never fail you
Monday Dec 07, 2020
Monday Dec 07, 2020
Faith is EVIDENCE. Not just the miracle. It’s faith itself which become the EVIDENCE, the SUBSTANCE of things which we don’t have but which we are hoping for. Why so often do we Christians look first for the material answers and don’t look to the spiritual? To God! We would rather go to something we can see and which we think we can depend on. Just as Isaiah said, “Why do you look to the number of chariots, to the men in the army?” They are not God! They are only flesh, and flesh can fail. But God CANNOT EVER, EVER FAIL YOU!

Between two decisions
Monday Nov 23, 2020
Monday Nov 23, 2020
The challenge is, who is the real God? We’re faced with a major issue today. Many of us listening and watching this broadcast know the reality of God and His Power. But our nation doesn’t know Him, they are serving their own false gods, they’ll follow their own leaders, fashion and celebrity. They’re not seeking God, they’re ‘sitting on a fence’. We all must decide whom we will serve.

God's supply is inexhaustible
Friday Nov 20, 2020
Friday Nov 20, 2020
When we trust God, our bread and water, the basic necessities, everything we need for life, will always be there. The Power and the Anointing of the Holy Spirit will never run dry. It doesn’t matter how much I use the Holy Spirit, how much I pray, how many miracles I see, that precious cruse of oil of the Holy Spirit will never, ever run out. God’s supply is inexhaustible. I KNOW that! I have no fear of the future. I have no fear that the miracles of the past will diminish and go away. God has promised that He will never leave or forsake us, so we may boldly say: "The Lord is my helper; I will not fear."

The Lord God Creator
Monday Nov 02, 2020
Monday Nov 02, 2020
Our God is the Lord God who created Heaven and earth. We call Him Father, yet He is the greatest Power ever known in the universe! The Creator! Who is God? The word for God in Genesis is plural, Elohim. We understand Him as Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Jesus has been existent from before the beginning of time, the ‘I AM’. He doesn’t change! Understanding God as Creator is integral to comprehending His character: the Prophet Jeremiah says of Him, 'Sovereign Lord, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for You' (32.17).

"Lord, show us the Father"
Monday Oct 26, 2020
Monday Oct 26, 2020
Who is God? What is the Trinity? People have such strange ideas of who God is! When we were boys, my older brother thought Heaven was ‘like sitting on a damp cloud with your feet in butter’! I don’t know where he got that idea from!!! But people imagine God as an ‘old man sitting on a cloud’!!! Or they don’t think of God as relevant at all. That’s why He sent His Son Jesus, that we might understand who He is! That’s why Jesus said, “If you’ve seen Me, you’ve seen the Father!” They ARE One!

The Power of Resurrection and Obedience
Monday Oct 19, 2020
Monday Oct 19, 2020
We need to believe in the Power of the resurrection! In Acts 3, Peter and John were brought before the whole religious council - the High Priest, his kindred, the rulers, elders and scribes - for questioning, "By what power, by what name have you healed this lame man?" And Peter replied, "If we are being examined about this man and how he was healed, let it be known to you and to the whole of Israel that by the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth whom God raised from the dead, even by Him does this man stand, totally healed!" The religious leaders then responded, "Did we not strictly command you that you should not preach in this Name? But you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine!" But in v29 Peter and the other Apostles answered, "We ought to obey God rather than men." Our allegiance is to Jesus, the Son of the living God, who was raised from the dead; it is Him we must obey!

The wedding feast of Christ
Friday Oct 09, 2020
Friday Oct 09, 2020
The challenge to all of us in this pandemic is, how are we going to respond? In Deuteronomy 4.27 Moses says to Israel, "The Lord will scatter you among the nations and you will be left few in number among the heathen." He foresaw God's people would be scattered, under persecution. People will tell you Christ is going to return in a blaze of Glory and before He comes, there's going to be revival and multitudes saved… But that's not actually what the Scripture says! Scripture actually says that in the last days, many will turn away from their faith. Jesus Himself said, when the Son of Man comes back, will He even find faith on the earth? The challenge is to go out into the 'highways and byways' and to compel the rejected to come into the Kingdom!
