This morning the Glory of the Lord showed up in the fire conference in remarkable way. In the middle of Evangelist Bonnke’s message the very atmosphere began to change and the people responded in what resulted in a spontaneous eruption. All over the huge hall, thousands of people were shouting and manifesting and kneeling and crying out to God. The sound was a supernatural roar of uninhibited praise…It was a genuine move of God. It was as if the people could not wait for a...

We have just returned from the second evening of services here in Ikot Ekpene. As we drove to the crusade ground we could see that it would be a challenging night…the rain was falling and the people were huddling together wherever they could find shelter. When we arrived the crowd was quite disappointingly small. Yet we pressed on. When I took the microphone, I was determined to preach as though there were a million people there. Half way into my message the field was...

On the way to tonight’s meeting, we sat in a traffic jam caused by all the movement towards the crusade grounds. it seemed as if the whole city was coming. The crowd doubled in size from last night and the stream of people flowing onto the field seemed almost endless. It is clear that we have extraordinary traction here in Okitipupa.
The people listened to the preaching of the Gospel with great intensity and responded with vibrant enthusiasm calling upon the name of...

Dear Mission-Partners,
Today is DAY TWO in Isokoland/Nigeria. The venue is between two villages and people from both sides have to walk for many miles. When Chief Solomon Ogba, State Secretary of the PDP, Delta State, saw the huge crowd, he was thunderstruck. “This happens on a village-level”, he said, “it’s beyond belief.”
Tonight again the Gospel was powerfully proclaimed, with masses of people receiving Jesus as their personal Savior. Have a look at tonight’s...

The Gospel is the power of God unto salvation, and tonight that power invaded the crusade field again bringing a torrent of salvation and healing. The crowd grew to 200,000, and as they prayed the prayer of salvation, there was such evident passion and sincerity. The sound of their voices seemed to shake the earth, and I must admit, I was very moved as well.
Then the Holy Spirit began to move in miracle power:
A man, blind in both eyes for 80 years received his...

Our crusade director leaned over to me tonight and said, “This is ‘real’ Africa.” He told me that one African evangelist came here recently but turned around and left when he saw the living conditions. Afikpo is as rugged and wild as it comes. Everything is raw and organic here – including the incredible power of God that we demonstrate.
Tonight the crowd doubled with over 125,000 in attendance…and this is only the second night! I preached a clear Gospel message and then...

Dear Partners in the Harvest,
Tonight the crowd grew to 250,000 souls hungry for the Bread of Life. The cross was lifted high and the people responded with resounding voices: “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me.” What a joy to preach the Gospel!
Afterwards the miraculous began to break out including a 7-year-old boy, dumb from birth, who spoke tonight for the first time. Also see the attached picture of a tiny, 1-year-old baby that had been unable to sit until...

The Gospel is not Good News for everyone. To the principalities and powers that have held Sapele in bondage for generations, the Gospel is a declaration that their demonic kingdom has come to an end. The keys of death, hell and the grave have been confiscated and Jesus Christ is Lord of all!
Tonight I preached about the power in the blood of Jesus to save, to cleanse, to heal and to protect. After the prayer for salvation, I called out the names of the local curses one...

We are experiencing a mighty surge of Gospel impact here in Ugep. Even now I can hear outside my window the thousands of people who have literally flooded the streets on their way home from the meeting, which doubled in size from last night. The word is out…Jesus is here – and all of Ugep is buzzing!
The response to the Gospel message tonight was overwhelming and the miracles were popping like popcorn. A 23-year-old woman deaf and dumb from birth heard and spoke...

We were thrilled when we came in sight of the crusade field tonight and saw how many people had come. Attendance doubled tonight to 170,000 people! The atmosphere was absolutely electric…I wish you could have seen it. I preached on the Blood of Jesus to cleanse, heal, redeem and protect and then, after the prayer of salvation, I broke the curses over the land through the authority we have because of that precious blood and immediately healing began to take place.
A...

Takum is being shaken by the Gospel this week. Tonight many people brought their juju, idols and witchcraft fetishes to be burned, including a group of Fulani Muslim people that greeted me when I came down from the platform. After they received Jesus as their Savior tonight, they immediately pulled off the old charms that they were wearing and threw them into the barrels for burning. Their faces, covered in tribal markings and tattoos, were beaming with the love of...

Tonight the crowd nearly doubled to 200,000! The power of God fell in an extraordinary way and miracles began to take place even before I had finished praying for the sick.
As I was praying I saw a young woman running to the platform with crutches raised over her head. I immediately called her up to the platform. She came with her sister and they told me that she had been crippled by a severe spinal cord injury, but suddenly the power of God came over her and she was...

Dear Mission Partners,
Tonight ominous clouds and lightning threatened to bring the meeting to an early end and even though the rain fell all over Akure, the field where we were gathered stayed dry and we were not hindered. The message of repentance and restitution was received and a huge number of the more than 100,000 present surrendered their lives to Jesus and were born again.
We heard from a Muslim man tonight who said he had been suffering with terrible pain that...

Tonight the attendance increased to 200,000 here in Ogbomosho, Nigeria. Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke preached a classic Gospel message and when the invitation for salvation was given, the response was overwhelming. It is as though a flash flood of salvation has swept through this region washing away every stronghold of sin and Satan. Have a look at the picture (below) of a girl healed from blindness in her right eye tonight.
This morning was also the beginning of the...

It is the second night of our Great Gospel Campaign here in Asaba, Nigeria and momentum is building. These precious people are so responsive and such a pleasure to minister to. They are receiving the Word with great joy. Tonight the Gospel message rang loud and clear and many choose to follow Jesus.
The Gospel that we preach is not one of word only, but comes with a demonstration of Holy Ghost power and tonight many miracles and healings took place.
A woman who was...

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...

Just moments ago we returned from tonight’s meeting with joy. Evangelist Bonnke preached about “The Adulterous Woman” and the very eager and hungry crowd was hanging on every word. He told them that under the Law of Moses, that adulterous woman should have been stoned. The reason that Jesus could pardon her is that he was already on his way to the cross where he would take her punishment and pay the price for her sin. It was a powerful and holy moment when tens of...

Dear Mission-Partners,
Okigwe, Nigeria is a city on fire! The crowd nearly tripled tonight and the dynamics are awesome! The chairman of the campaign said that he’s never seen anything like this in Okigwe. After preaching the Gospel and praying for the sick, all over the field things began to happen. Crutches and wheelchairs were being raised into the air as cripples began to walk. We could hear rejoicing coming from every direction as healings were manifested. A...

Dear Mission Partners,
The Apostle Paul said, “My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power” (1 Cor. 2:4)
This is what we experienced tonight in Burkina Faso – a demonstration of the power of God! Have a look at the attached picture of one man who was confined to this strange wheelchair for over 14 years. Tonight Jesus healed him and he can walk! Imagine the joy of the crowd when suddenly, that...

Dear Mission Partners,
Tonight we were soaked – both with natural rain and with showers of blessing! In spite of the weather, the Gospel was preached and the sick were healed. One of the notable miracles that we heard about was of a mad woman who was delivered. Her mother said they used to restrain her with ropes, but now the chains on her brain have been broken and she is totally well! This and other wonderful testimonies thrilled our souls, but most of all, we are...
