Guard the Fire in your life | Two Minute Daily Devotional

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 the secret: in the Old Testament, God commanded the Temple priests to never let the fire on the altar go out. That same principle applies to us today. Guard the fire in your life. Keep it alive. Don’t let it fade. Nurture it through prayer, faith, and devotion – and you’ll discover a power that never diminishes, only grows stronger with time.

I am not ashamed of the Gospel | Two Minute Daily Devotional

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 transform, to heal, to save – is contained within the Gospel. It’s not just words; it’s the very life-changing, world-shaping power of God at work.

Restoration (with Vinesong) | Legacy Episode

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 ...

Aim high and God will help you | Two Minute Daily Devotional

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. And another. You may not go as far as someone else, but what matters is that you’ve begun. Keep moving forward, keep your pace, and you’ll find yourself climbing higher than you ever thought possible.
I think it was General Booth who said, in your vision for God, aim for the moon – you may not reach it, but you might make it as far as the lamppost. Aim only for the lamppost, and you’ll never lift your feet off the ground.
Aim high. Take that step. You’re already on your way, and you’ll discover that the Lord reaches down His hand to lift you even higher.

Step by Step | Two Minute Daily Devotional

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.

The Way to Revival | Joel 2 | Revive Now! Morning Sermon

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 maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days.
"And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: Blood and fire and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord. And it shall come to pass that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Joel 2, NKJV)

Step up onto higher ground | Two Minute Daily Devotional

When you pray, ask God to lift you onto higher ground – a deeper, stronger faith. Think about climbing a mountain: how do you reach the top? When I’m in Austria, there’s a place I call my “prayer mountain.” I’ve noticed there are two ways up: you can take the cable car, or you can choose the footpath and walk.
Spiritually, I long to be at the summit – to reach the highest place and draw as close to God as possible. So 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.

Faith In Action | April Monthly Newsletter

We need a final Holy Ghost revival to sweep the final ones into the Kingdom of God, as promised in the prophecies of Joel! Prophecy is unfolding fast, and in a different way to what most expected. I will speak more about this here in the UK, because it seems to me that the most neglected prophet is Joel, but all my life I have been greatly influenced by him. Before Covid, we filled the Westminster Central Hall in London to overflowing with more than 2,000 people to pray for our nation. It’s in my heart – if God tells me – to fill it again for prayer, prophecy and healing miracles. But I will only do it if He tells me. I must listen to His Voice!

I AM: The God who is with us | Lessons from Exodus 3 (Part 3)

When we preach the Gospel of Jesus in the Power of the Holy Spirit, GOD is in the Power, He’s in the Fire! He’s in the miracles! God worked the miracle that got me out of the communist prison in 1973 when British Prime Minister Harold Wilson came for me. When I was healed of throat cancer in 1964 and lung cancer in 2003, God was there. GOD did it!
When God is speaking to Moses, He’s saying, “I existed BEFORE your fathers, BEFORE Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I existed before everything, and I AM the Creator of everything. This is my Name forever!” He’s making known His Eternal Presence! Without beginning, without end. He has and is ALL Power, ALL Authority – that’s who we worship!

Do you want to see miracles? | Two Minute Daily Devotional

‘Yours is the Kingdom, Yours is the Power, these are Yours by right, but the GLORY is what we give You as the answer comes and You receive the Glory from us!’ I felt confident at that moment that without question I would receive from Him exactly what I was asking, so that then I could give Him all the Glory!
‘When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord raises up a standard against Him!’ (Isaiah 59:19). The expression ‘raising the standard’ means, in military terms, going to war. So that, when the devil attacks, then God goes into action and you see miracles, which are the evidence of this. When you don’t see the devil, you don’t see any miracles either. If you sit in comfort with no problems in your life, you won’t need any miracles! Do you want to see miracles? Do you want to live on the edge, in the danger zone and see the God of power in action?
The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.

All things are possible with God | Two Minute Daily Devotional

The Bible says that ‘the things that are impossible with men are possible with God’.
For one year I spent much time in prayer and fasting, seeking an answer to a desperate need. Twice I said to the Lord that I would fast until the answer came, I was so desperate, but I know that my God is a prayer-answering God! The first time I had to cease fasting before the answer came, only because I had to go to Ukraine for three weeks of intensive evangelism. The second time was after my return: tired and exhausted from the travelling and preaching and the effects of food poisoning, I re-commenced my fast, determined to continue until the answer came. After ten days, as I was praying and worshipping Him, I felt a tremendous sense of the Lord’s presence and I began to say, ‘Yours is the Kingdom, the Power and the Glory.’ Suddenly it was as if this was the answer, and I began to say it again, ‘Yours is the Kingdom, Yours is the Power, these are Yours by right, but the GLORY is what we give You as the answer comes and You receive the Glory from us!’ I felt confident at that moment that without question I would receive from Him exactly what I was asking, so that then I could give Him all the Glory!

Salvation (with Vinesong) | Legacy Episode

When you know God, when you trust Him, all the blessing of God will come into your life. He will heal your sickness, take away your pain. He will deliver your nation. But first, the deliverance begins in your heart. The peace has to come into your heart. The repentance has to come into your heart. Then God will change your nation. I want to pray with you that the miracle will begin now.

We must go by faith | Two Minute Daily Devotional

I want the Bible-believing, miracle-working, powerful Gospel according to God’s Word! You can pray for an easy life, ask Him to prevent the problems, ask for a quiet time... but that means where there are no problems, there are no miracles!
We must go by faith, in obedience to what God is telling us to do. And God always makes a way. I have learned that everything God does is a miracle! If it’s not a miracle, then you or I could do it! In my life I know that it is God working when the totally impossible happens! Whatever the problem, God never, ever fails – it’s impossible! The day God fails, He’s no longer God. It’s in God’s Word, it’s His character. He’s the God of miracles! Yes, I have problems – these mean I spend much time in prayer and fasting. Why? Because you cannot have miracles without first having problems! Every problem drives me to prayer which then brings another miracle! But people aren’t prepared to pay the price. And because they don’t want the problems, they don’t see the miracles. The Bible says that ‘the things that are impossible with men are possible with God’.

Raised to New Life | Two Minute Daily Devotional

If you believe that Jesus died on the cross, then salvation means death, you must die with Him. Colossians 2:12 says we’re buried with Him in baptism and raised with Him into new life. 
My old sinful life is dead – I am dead – with Christ! But just like Jesus, I have been raised from the dead and so like Paul, can say, ‘I live, yet not I, Christ lives in me!’ This is what I preach, the old-fashioned Gospel according to the Word of God. Every convert is a new creation, that is why REVIVAL FIRE is in Russia and the Ukraine! HE is within them and they are only alive in HIM. Dead to self, but CHRIST LIVES in US! 
I have Christ IN me and I have the Holy Spirit IN me! That is the secret of fifty years of miracle ministry. I do not want any new Gospel – I want the Bible-believing, miracle-working, powerful Gospel according to God’s Word! You can pray for an easy life, ask Him to prevent the problems, ask for a quiet time... but that means where there are no problems, there are no miracles!
We must go by faith, in obedience to what God is telling us to do. And God always makes a way. 

I AM: The God who is with us | Lessons from Exodus 3 (Part 2)

Humbly Moses says, “Who am I that I should do this?” This is a question we all must ask. I know God has called me, I know what He has called me to do, but who am I? God’s promise to Moses is, “I WILL BE WITH YOU.” In 75 years of ministry, God has always been with me, there has never been a time when I’ve not been conscious of His Presence, His Power, His Leading.
Moses continues, “When I come to the children of Israel and tell them that the God of their fathers has sent me, they will want to know, what is Your Name? What shall I say? Who ARE You?” God replies, “I AM that I AM – Ehyeh asher Ehyeh.” I AM THAT I AM is the English translation, and I’ve always been intrigued by it. I AM is EXISTENCE. God always has been, in the past, and always will be – in the future! Not created. He EXISTED before the very beginning of time. We cannot imagine it, but God has always been and always will be! He says to Moses, “Tell them, I AM, Ehyeh, has sent you.”
God’s Name in Hebrew can equally be translated as ‘I WILL BE WHAT I WILL BE’, as Biblical Hebrew has no future tense, instead a continuous present. I am whoever I want to be, whatever I want to be, whenever I want to be. Whatever I want and say, I do. I am EVERYTHING. I am EVERYWHERE. Hence the fact that in Exodus 3, God is in the burning bush! And speaks from the fire! But to Elijah God does not speak from the wind, earthquake or fire – but in a still small voice. 

Rivers of Living Water | Two Minute Daily Devotional

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. The inner experience is the fresh river source, the sweet blessing, the mighty power of God, the Holy Spirit within you!
