We were in Munhava eight or nine years ago and decided that it was time for another visit. We wanted to use the football field in the center of the township, but the authorities turned us down. Instead, they let us rent a small field in an obscure location and that is where we decided to hold our Crusade.

While in Dallas, TX, I met famous Assemblies of God evangelist Dave Roever, a Vietnam veteran who suffered horrific burns during the Vietnam war and today has a powerful ministry all over the world.

I have been thinking about financial integrity, about how it is one of the most important aspects of ministry. How we acquire money and how we spend it are important. The Bible teaches us about a person's relationship with money.

We started in Chawama with great excitement in the community about what the Lord would do. A large crowd gathered to hear the Gospel on the first night. I asked Pastor Kevin Kazemi from Ohio to preach the Gospel and pray for the sick.

FIRSTLY, THE FOUNDATIONS:

1. God is a healer. One of His covenant names is "Jahve Raphae," which means "The Lord your physician."

Never make the mistake of looking at the results of a person’s ministry as being indicative of the closeness of their walk with God or the measure of integrity in their life. A person can be cold in their heart towards God, but the people around them cannot see that person’s heart. All that they see are the crowds in the meetings, the souls at the altar, the miracles, and the finances of the ministry. They can then begin to believe all the great things that people say about the person, and once they do that, they are deceived.

It is good to be back in Chaisa after 23 years!

Our six-night crusade began on a Tuesday. It was a small first-night crowd. I was away in South Africa, and our Africa Team took care of the meeting. Many people gave their lives to the Lord Jesus, and several people testified that God had opened their deaf ears and healed them from other diseases.

Sometime after I received the Baptism with the Holy Spirit in Uppsala Sweden in early 1980, I heard about a Norwegian evangelist called Terje Berntzen. There was such a buzz going on about the mighty things that God was doing in his meetings. I had a deep hunger for more of Jesus, and so I went to hear him when he came to preach at the Filadelfia Pentecostal church in Uppsala.

Many years ago, a pastor friend of mine invited a reputable American prophet to come and minister in his church. The prophet spoke out some words over my friend and over different people in his church. All the words that he spoke were amazingly accurate.

God changes and develops us during the Journey of Faith!

When I first received Jesus, my passion was to share the Gospel and to win souls for Him. That has continued unabated.

Dear friends,

Our Team and I recently held a Gospel Festival in a “closed” region in Asia which had not allowed any Christian events before. Suddenly, the Lord opened the door for us as an answer to the prayers of God’s people in the region, and we went in to preach the Word of God.

When I first began in ministry 50 years ago, it was in street ministry with a Jesus People group. We ministered mainly to drug-users as well as witnessed and shared the Gospel with "regular" people in many different settings: on the street, door-to-door, in schools, etc.

I remember Pastor Ray Jennings, an unusual and powerful man of God who left a great impression upon my life in the early days of my ministry.
I was a young 23-year-old refugee fresh out of almost a year in prison for the Gospel and with an execution order hanging over my head. I escaped and I found myself in Kabul on my way escaping to Istanbul in Turkey.

Dad Hagin was around 64 years old when Britta and I attended RHEMA Bible College. Britta and I were part of the first group of international students who went to study there. It was only then that Kenneth E. Hagin was beginning to be known internationally.

Nearly everyone has heard of Billy Graham, but what about Chuck Templeton? What about Bron Clifford? Have you ever heard of them?

Zingalume is a township located outside Lusaka, the capital of Zambia.

Our Crusade was well-prepared with our Africa Team working together with the local churches. The team held a three-week-long Mobile Bible School, teaching the local believers on follow-up and discipling new believers. This always gives good results after our crusades, with many new believers added to the local churches.

I have heard many religious clichés in my life, and one of the worst ones goes like this, "Seek the Giver, not the gift!"

Every new move of God, every revival, builds on the faith, the passion, the sacrifices, and the prayers of the generations before us.

This year is my 51st year preaching the Gospel of our Lord Jesus. I was saved on  December 13, 1975, a hopeless, sinful, and suicidal Muslim who had no desire to live. Jesus picked me up out of the pit and gave me a new life. I was lost and had reached the end of my rope, unable to see or envision any future for myself. All I wanted was to die.

If you are a pastor or a ministry leader, you will always be accused of being either too hard with people or being too soft with them.
