Evangelists say Muslims coming to Christ at historic rate.
Christians ministering quietly in the Middle East say Muslims are coming to Christ at an unprecedented pace despite intense persecution of those who leave Islam.
"Probably in the last 10 years, more Muslims have come to faith in Christ than in the last 15 centuries of Islam," said Tom Doyle, Middle East-Central Asia director for e3 Partners, a Texas-based missions agency.

Years ago my music-minister (Adam Mtsweni) and I were shopping for a new keyboard. It was at noon that we entered a big music-shop in Johannesburg/South Africa. There was a salesman, but he took no notice of us and Adam and I tried out all the keyboards. Suddenly the salesman appeared. He seemed to be in a different mood, something like in a state of shock and said to me “Sir, I can see Jesus in your eyes!” What? The Holy Spirit had entered that shop. We forgot all about the keyboard and had...
Last month evangelists Taras and Olga Mekeda traveled to small towns Homa Bay and Ahero close to lake Victoria, in Kenya.
“It was quite a challenge to preach during 5 days and travel by bus on African roads. For 4 days we had pastors seminars in Homabay and Ahero. We had about 20 pastors in each town, the number was not large due to weak organization and small size of towns. On Saturday I had to preach for 6,5 hours in both towns and the very next day on Sunday we conducted a Gospel...
We are back in Africa! Tonight was the beginning of the final Gospel Campaign of 2010 in the city of Asaba in Nigeria and the harvest continues.
In his welcome speech last night, the chairman said, “This Great Gospel Crusade could not have been held at a better time.” He said that other men of God have retreated from this region because of the “Powers of darkness”. He added that many “Satanic altars” have been built around the town and mentioned quite a few evil strongholds that bind...
We are on the front lines of the battle here in Asaba. The enemy is pushing, but we are pushing back and the Gates of Hell will not prevail against us!
I preached tonight on the power of the blood of Jesus. It seemed like the people were hanging on every word and drinking it all in. After praying for salvation we burned barrels of items associated with idolatry and the occult just like they did in Acts 19. With the flames still leaping into the air I began to call out the names of the...
The universal church is the apple of God’s eye, His creation, His Jerusalem with unassailable ramparts. The Church itself is not maintained by our prayers but by the unfailing presence of God. God is there not because we pray but because it is His infallible promise never to forsake us.
He desires to give Himself to us far more readily than we desire to receive Him... we only need to know how to seek God...
By prayer, you can live in God's presence...
Let us prepare our hearts...

When you have enjoyed God & the sweetness of His love, however, you wil find it impossible to set your affections on anything other than Him.
He desires to be more present to us than we desire to...
Tonight Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke preached the Gospel; calling the people to turn from the darkness to the Light…from the power of Satan to God. His message was clear and powerful and the response was virtually unanimous.
We heard many wonderful testimonies of healing (far too many to mention); tumors and cists vanished, crippled limbs and broken bones were healed, eyesight was restored, deaf ears opened, rheumatism, ulcers and chronic pain disappeared!
Now, as the final meeting of the...

By Faith twelve men (the Apostles) set out to tell the world about Jesus. One man (Paul) set out to demolish the ancient gods of Greece and Rome. Although emperors raged against them…THEY STILL DID IT! Well, Caesar had Paul beheaded in Rome, but 2,000 years later we still call our sons Paul and our dogs Caesar. By faith we will cover the earth with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. FOR SURE. God bless.
This morning I ministered at Calvary Assembly of God in Port Charlotte Florida where my father pastors. It is also the church that I grew up in and I was very happy to return and share the Word of God with many old and new friends. Port Charlotte was hit very hard by hurricane Charley several years ago and the city is still recovering from the damage. Calvary has been rebuilding ever since, but their new sports complex has just been finished and now they are getting ready for major...
I pray that you will appreciate the seasons, the sun shining and giving brightness, the moon shining, giving light, the rain falling, making our crops grow so we can have food to eat. I pray that you will appreciate every moment of everyday, as each day and each moment is precious. I pray that God will bless you as you take the time to appreciate His gift of life.
I pray that the light of God will shine upon you as you take the time to appreciate the work of His creation. God bless you as...
Tonight’s meeting has just come to a close here in Lokoja, Nigeria and we are rejoicing. I preached tonight on repentance, restitution and forgiveness and I am sure that many were set free indeed.
Proverbs 14:34 says that, “Righteousness exalts a nation…” People need salvation more than education, political ideologies, social programs or anything else. When God has a man’s heart He has that man entirely and everything else falls into place. Tonight thousands surrendered their hearts to...
Dear Friends,
Another historic Gospel Campaign has just come to a climactic conclusion here in Lokoja, Nigeria. Tonight Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke preached a clear Gospel message on repentance and the great majority of the 150,000 present prayed with him to receive salvation and forgiveness from sin. The cross is the centerpiece of the Christian faith and everything else must revolve around it. When the cross is preached, a resounding "Amen" can be heard from Heaven in the form of signs...
There is a movie that is very sensational, and it is called, “Unstoppable”, and it is about a runaway and unmanned freight train. The one half mile long train contains combustible substances and toxic gases that could wipe out a city.This movie is based on a true event where a freight train traveled 70 miles and two hours, until rail workers could get on board, attach a cable to another train and put on the brakes.The unstoppable train became stoppable in the end. There is only one power in...
Christians love quoting Bible! It’s a good thing; after all there are so many inspiring, comforting, and encouraging verses in the Bible! And so we like to underline the most powerful verses in the Bible, we write it out on our walls, t-shirts, and so on. Is it bad? Not at all, but what my concern is that when people pluck a certain phrase, a verse, or even a part of a verse from the Bible and turn it into a certain belief system, or a philosophy of life. You cannot take the promise that God...
Do you want to know the will of God for your life? How many young people struggle with the question, “What is the will of God for my life?” They search here and there, go from one conference to another, from one encounter to another, from one minister to another and cannot seem to find what is the will of God for their lives! People cannot function because they’re confused as to what is the will of God is for their lives; where they need to be, what major to study, what job to have, etc. And...
(CfaN Gospel Crusade in Akure/Nigeria)
It is a sad fact of our nature - a psychological fact - that our own desires can be so loud they sound like Divine commands. Shout long enough about what we already want to do and the echo will come back sooner or later, but it is our own voice, not the voice of God.
People talk of how they wrestled with God over a decision. Is God like that? Hardly! In fact, they are wrestling with their own will, not God’s will. They want Him to agree. Do we...
