Update over last few weeks

Written by Posted February 15, 2012 ·
Healing Touch

Just a little update on whates been happening over the last four weeks.   I've been going in to Diepsloot and God's been doing amazing things.  During this time I haven't been doing any mass meetings, but just one by one, about 100+ people have been individualy touched and healed from their various afflictions, pains, and diseases -- and as a result, many have found faith and trust in the One Who created them.  One memorable experience was a woman who we found lying face down in her shack in obvious pain.  After taking her by the hand and raising her up, I watched as the beads of sweat began to disappear from her face.  By the time we left (a couple minutes later), she was sitting outside and set free from the pain that gripped her just moments before.  As we walked back to the main road we noticed another woman we had prayed for just a little while earlier -- walking around and telling people, "My foot doesn't hurt any more!  It doesn't hurt!"

Igniting vision, sharing truth, and inspiring faith in 1000+ school children

Written by Posted February 10, 2012 ·
Kids at Diepsloot school

Recently I've been meeting various people, pastors, and leaders in Diepsloot to see about organizing a place where people can come and learn more about how they can walk with God in faith and effectiveness. I constantly meet people who, after they experience Jesus' healing touch and are introduced to Him, hunger for more and ask where they can meet and learn more. So I'm in the midst of asking God to lead and guide so we can open up such a place, whether that means building one from scratch, or holding meetings in an already established venue.   One pastor I was introduced to invited me to speak at a school with over 1,200 students. My son went with me (he loves being involved in such things) and I had the privilege to inspire these young hearts and minds with truth from God's Word. A truth which inspires them with:   1) Vision for life. God created them for a purpose, and he knew them before they were born. There's no impossibilities for them if they'll only believe and begin to walk in what God has made available for them. Click to read more »

Hope in the midst of adversity

Written by Posted January 1, 2012 ·
After being set free from various ailments they accepted Christ.

The other day I started off the day with a Bible study for a couple of security officers (also residents) in Diepsloot. We then took to the streets to be beacons of light and hope in the midst of darkness.   We went to a family's home (a tin shack) which was burnt to the ground.  The security officer made some arrangements with a local NGO for some physical help, and I was able to pray with many of them who were instantly set free from their various physical pains and afflictions.

Christmas miracles for those in need

Written by Posted January 1, 2012 ·
Grandmother and grandchildren healed

I always like to remind our children that Christmas is not about ourselves -- it's about Jesus, His ultimate sacrifice in giving His own life -- and putting in to practice His admonition that "as the Father sent me, so I send you." (John 20:21) In other words, Christmas represents living a life which touches the lives of others with God's love -- and spending time loving the One who made it all possible. So, as a family, we went in to Diepsloot (as we regularly do). Our kids played with the children, people were set free from their ailments and diseases as we prayed for them, and some opened their heart to Jesus and experienced God for the first time. (One of these was a man who's partly responsible for security in one section of Diepsloot. Click to read more »

Video – Woman in Diepsloot couldn’t walk, now she can

Woman in Diepsloot couldn’t walk, now she can

The last couple weeks in Diepsloot have been amazing. I'm so happy to see people getting set free not only in their spirit, but in their bodies as well -- getting set free from sickness and disease. God is alive and well -- and Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever! Since my last update a week or so ago about 40 people have been set free from various afflictions and pains in Diepsloot. Someone brought me to this woman who had pain in her legs and thus couldn't walk. There were two small boys nearby so I taught them how to pray and set this grandmother free from her pain --in Jesus' name. Another woman was also set free from back pain. Click to watch the video.

More sickness destroyed in Diepsloot

Written by Posted November 30, 2011 ·
One of the better sections of Diepsloot

Yesterday I was again privileged to walk the dirt roads in Diepsloot as God extended His loving and healing touch in to the lives of real people in tough situations. One precious older woman who needs to care for her grandchildren was in bed with fever and flu-like symptoms -- sweating profusely.  It was a pleasure to hold her hand as God brought her healing and relief.  The sweat dried up and she sat up obviously feeling well.  She also said the pain from her leg (which had limited mobility) was gone, and she could begin moving her foot in ways she couldn't before ... another ...

Healing sickness and disease in Diepsloot – the importance

Written by Posted November 30, 2011 ·
Friends in Diepsloot

Remaining healthy in Diepsloot can be challenging since many  residents don't have access to running water, proper sewage removal, medicine, nor can many afford to eat a nutritious and balanced meal. Then there is the plague of HIV and AIDS which ravage lives and spread not only amongst those making unhealthy lifestyle choices, but amongst the victims of those making those poor choices -- innocent women and children ... Why do I walk the streets of Diepsloot extending God's personal, healing touch? I think the answer is clear. Click to read more »

Happy students putting love in action after listening to the message.

Had a great time a few days ago sharing with students at a school in Diepsloot.  I was involved in personally counseling the students as well as sharing with a classroom of about fifty students who all hopefully walked away with a larger vision of life, God, and what they could do to make an [...] Click to read more »

Tendons healed, nephew saved, pain gone!

Written by Posted October 30, 2011 · 1 Comment
Siphewe (left) healed & no longer needs a crutch! His Nephew (middle) receives Jesus as a result.

Was at a Petrol Station yesterday and saw a man (Siphewe - left of photo) limping with a crutch and a brace on his leg. After some hesitation the thought came to me, "if you really believe God will heal him when you pray, wouldn't you just go without hesitation?" So at that I went over and asked him what was wrong with his leg. He explained the ligaments in his ankles were practically torn and thus he walked with constant pain. I mentioned Jesus can heal him and then knelt down and laid my hands on his ankles Click to read more »

Broken bodies and spirits – healed and restored

Written by Posted October 26, 2011 ·

Faith in the name of Jesus brings life and healing (Acts 3:16).  Here's a few testimonies along these lines we've experienced over the past few weeks.  I'm sharing these with the hope they'll be an encouragement for others to walk in and expect the same.  "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever." (Hebrews 13:8) 1)  A man was lying on the floor clutching his heart 1)  A man was lying on the floor clutching his heart, seemingly having a heart attack or something of that nature.  People were clamoring to organize a trip to the hospital.  I stooped down, laid my hands on his chest Click to read more »
