Why Do We Not See More Healing In The West

We hear of signs and wonders in the East but not many stories in the West comparatively. Why is this so? Many have gone on missions to the East and come back with stories of miraculous healing. In the West on the other hand we hear of sporadic healing but very few miracles. God is not limited by time yet miracles appear more in the East. Is this something to do with our mental set? In the East people are more in tune with the spirit world and appear more prepared to expect the miraculous. This is deeply ingrained in their psyche. In the West we tend to rationalise everything and through this process debunk any possibility beyond what we see and hear and touch. Do we need a mental shift to entertain the miraculous? If this is true than we need to set aside our rational mind and simply believe. Smith Wigglesworth used to emphasise the importance of simply believing. He saw many miracles in his day. Believe is trust. Can we trust God to come through for us and not doubt? Maybe this is what is preventing us seeing more miracles in the West. Our mind has interfered with seeing with our spiritual eyes the deep things God has prepared for us.
How do we shift in our thinking to believe rather than doubt? Ask the Holy Spirit to enlighten our mind so that we set our rational faculty aside and learn to trust. God says that whoever comes to Him must believe and trust. We must take the risk despite all the objections of our rational mind. Mind interference is the cause for a lot of our problems. When we think critically and objectify happenings we try and understand with our mind. We need to sense and operate from our heart to see miracles. This is what it means to be filled in the Spirit and walk in the Spirit. Do as the Spirit leads and think about it later.

Death Results In Life

This is a contradiction in terms but the truth is that death resulted in life. Jesus died and this resulted in resurrection life. A seed must fall on the ground and die before it can give life. A seed that refuses to die will not give life. Jesus said that I must die to my self, take up my cross and follow Him. There is no life without death. Jesus knew that our major battle is with our flesh. The only answer to victory over the flesh is death. However this is not a one time event. Death to the flesh is a daily walk of crucifixion to the flesh. Death to the flesh is the only way to life in the Spirit. God knew that it was impossible for man to die to his flesh. Therefore He sent Jesus to die for us. His death now makes it easy for us to die to the flesh because He rose again. It is His life that enables us to overcome the flesh. The Cross alone was not sufficient to overcome evil. It is His resurrection from the dead that made it possible for Him to enable us to live. He gave His life that we may come to life.
This is the good news of the gospel. To many it was bad news because they saw Him die. But three days later He overcame death by rising from the grave. Now our hope is not in the Cross but in the resurrection. If Jesus had not risen than our faith is as good as dead. His resurrection is what makes His death meaningful and real. Deny yourself, take up your cross and follow Him. Only death to self is key to resurrection life. I identify with His death and resurrection by faith. Hallelujah what a salvation.

Faith Is Like Finding A Parking Space Every Time

Faith is a spiritual gift that operates in realms unseen to bring into the realms of the seen. Faith is the evidence of things not seen. How does one operationalise faith? We talk a lot about having faith in God and to just trust and not doubt. These sometimes appears vague and difficult to understand. Faith is trust, is hope and is evidence. However it is difficult to operate in faith when we have been brought up to operate in what we see. Seeing is believing. However we don"t need faith if we can see. God operates in the unseen realms. God is Spirit. We therefore need to trust Him for things. Abraham believed God. The Bible is full of stories of how people obtained things from God and overcame through faith. Faith therefore is essential path to commune with God. We have all been given a measure of faith. According to your faith be it unto you. There are times when the gift of faith is in operation to work miracles. Without faith we cannot please God. All who come to God must come by faith.We can grow in faith. Therefore faith can be seen as a fruit of the Spirit.
I have faith for car parking space. The same faith that led me to Jesus needs to be exercised for all other needs. I need to exercise faith when I pray for healing. Once I see people healed than my faith increases to see more healing. It is like a skill that needs to be developed. The more we practice the greater the results. Step out today and practice operating in faith for needs in yourself and in others and see God come through in signs and wonders. God loves to answer and will respond to faith. Some say faith is spelt as RISK. We need to take the risk and be bold. Happy faith adventures to you.

Ministry Of Angels

Angels are ministering spirits. They were created to help the saints in fulfilling their mission. Angels surround us and help us. They are waiting for our command to do what we need to accomplish. Angels complain that they are bored because His people are not aware of their help. We need to look to angels to help us in all situations. They are our helpers in the spirit world. When we intercede for others we can send the angels to deliver the answers to our prayers. When we are discouraged we can ask the angels to come and comfort us. The ministry of angels is vital to the life of the believer and for the church.Send healing angels to minister to the sick. Our ministry is a spiritual ministry and we need sprit helpers to accomplish them. When we rely on our own strength than we become tired and discouraged. God has provided us with helpers to accomplish His work.
There have been many instances when I have escaped danger because of angels. Situations which were dangerous and incidents that would have been disastrous were avoided because of angels. Angels need to be acknowledged in their help. When we realise the benefit of ministering with them we become more reliant on them. Call on them to help you in every situation. They are sent to help the saints. Imagine a servant always ready to serve. So also are angels to us. They need to be employed. Why do we neglect the ministry of angels? We do so because of the lack of knowledge. Just as the Holy Spirit is our Helper so also are the angels. Today call on them to help you. See the difference in your daily walk. See how signs and wonders will follow you as you seek their help in your ministry.

Fear Is In Your Mind

In the garden of Eden when sin entered the human race, fear was the result of sin. Adam and Eve hid themselves from God. Ever since than Satan has used fear as a major weapon against us. Where there is fear there will be torment. When fear controls you than everything else becomes subject to it. You see the evidence of fear in every walk of life from the individual to the family to the community. Fear also dominates churches. Fear is the cause of a lot of controlling behaviours. Power battles are the basis for a lot of grief and turmoil amongst relationships. Once fear is overcome it will be replaced by peace. Lot of the peace we talk about is just a compromise. There is no peace unless fear can be overcome. The answer to fear is faith.

Jesus came to deliver us from the demon of fear. His resurrection power enables us to overcome fear through faith in His resurrection power. The Cross served a death blow to Satan and His resurrection from the dead was the final weapon. Where there is no resurrection only fear and death prevail. People can die of fear. However every weapon the devil forms against us can be overcome by faith in the finished work of Jesus on the Cross.There is no other solution to fear than what was accomplished on the Cross. The first Adam succumbed to temptation. The second Adam{Jesus} reversed this curse. Now all we have to do is to receive this finished work by faith by putting our trust in Him. Tap into this power and be set free today. Every other problem or struggle can be overcome easily when fear is vanquished. His promises are yes and amen. He will never disappoint. Today is your day of salvation.

3 Way Communication

Most of us think that communication is a two way process but when the Holy Spirit is our partner it becomes a three way process. Jesus spoke what He saw and heard His Father saying and doing. In the same way we too need to be listening and doing what the Holy Spirit is prompting us to do. This brings our communication to a new level. He will show you what to say and do. This is a walk of faith when you have to rely on Him for everything. This means to walk in His fulness all the time. What profound words flowed from Jesus mouth as He spoke. Even the rabbis in His day were astounded by the wisdom and knowledge He possessed.This same wisdom and knowledge is available to us today.
Jesus came to fulfil His commission to bring a people to Himself, His body on earth. He gave His own Spirit so that we are never alone. As we walk with Him and talk with Him we become like Him. What a holy transaction   and transference occurs. All provision has been made. All we need to do is to receive by faith His promises. This is the abundant life He gives. He is our Master and we become His servants. We live to represent Him on earth as HE is in heaven. We do not have to work and labour but rest and be. We are not robots as we need to be actively participating with Him. In this way we will grow to be like Him. We will experience victory and success in all our endeavours. There will be opposition but nothing can stand against our God. What a life, what a destiny to those who are being called into His Kingdom. Come and be filled and overcome for His Name sake.

To Know Him Is To Love Him

To really know a person is the key to intimacy. When I know a person I accept the person for who he or she is. There is no judgement involved but total acceptance. This is the way God accepts me. He knew me before I was born. He knows my weaknesses and sins. Yet He loves me unconditionally. It is this love that draws me to Him and keeps me in the straight and narrow way. God is love. To know Him in this way is a profound knowledge that goes beyond head knowledge. To know Him intimately is to appreciate the deep things of God. God is above us and He is our Creator. There is no one like Him. Yet He makes Himself known to us. It is His Spirit that communes with us and makes us know that we are His. This kind of knowing is what sets us apart from others who know a lot about God.This is why the devil is able to oppress many because he knows that they don't know Him. To know Him is to love Him.
Jesus came to reveal the Father. Now we know Him as our Father in heaven. This is intimacy. Once we know Him we become like Him. Jesus waked in intimate relationship with His Father. God wants us to have this kind of relationship with Him. When we hear His voice everything else fades into oblivion. This is the ultimate purpose for His people that they may know their God. This intimate union results in the overthrow of the kingdom of Satan. He can't touch you because of such a strong bond with the Father.Trust Him to reveal Himself to you personally. You will never be the same again. Thank you Jesus for revealing the Father and making us one with you.

Spirit To Spirit Communication

There are different forms of communication. We communicate verbally and non verbally as humans with each other. There is emotional communication which touches our emotions. There is also spirit to spirit communication. Man is a tripartite being, body, soul and spirit. We therefore can communicate through these 3 dimensions. Sometimes we get confused because our communication lines are not in sync. This leads to misunderstandings. When one communicates verbally and another non verbally or emotionally then there is a miscommunication. The art of communication is to be able to communicate in the same dimension or channel. Many are able to communicate verbally but they miss the emotional cues of the other. When communication is purely intellectual than it becomes rather clinical and dry. When communication is purely emotional it becomes irrational as logic is absent. However God is Spirit and we need to tune into the spirit to be able to hear Him and operate in the gifts of the Spirit.
God has given us His Holy Spirit so that we can know Him and communicate with Him. We will be able to discern His voice from other voices. His Spirit within us communicates with our spirit to assure us of His presence in us.  When we pray in tongues we communicate at a spirit level with God. This is a quick way to enter into the spirit realm and be spirit minded. When we communicate with others in the spirit then our spirits get excited. Jesus communicated with other's spirit to spirit. Their eyes were opened to see and believe. We too have the capacity and ability to do the same. Man's spirit longs for this kind of communication but sadly even in churches the communication is largely soulish. It appeals to the emotions and the intellect. Ask God to fill you with His Spirit and walk in His Spirit.

Passion For Souls

The one desire that drives me is a passion for souls. This is the time for harvest of souls for Kingdom of God. God has released a fresh mandate to the church to press in for souls. There is no greater commission than this. Souls for the Kingdom means more are rescued from an eternity in hell. Hell is as real as heaven. We are irresponsible if we do not heed the call. Many have become tired and lazy. The fires are a reminder that the end is nigh. This is a prelude to the final show down as Satan nears his final destiny. He will unleash the might of his force on earth to take as many as he can to hell with him. The people of God need to rise up to stand against him. Pray while it is still day and see souls delivered from the enemy's grip. Many are bound and slaves to addictions and worldly pleasures. There is only one who can save them and His name is Jesus. The message is clear and simple. Come all who are weary and heavy burdened and I will give you rest.
Jesus is the only answer. There is no other way to the Father but through Him. The world will promise other ways but there is no other way. Jesus came from the Father to show us the way to Him. This is why He could say I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. He is the pearl of great price. Come to Him today. Receive Him as your Lord and Saviour today. Your life is safe in Him and you are destined for heaven. Come by faith as He cannot be bought. His salvation is free. He is available to all of any religious or non religious persuasions. This is why He is the only way.

Demonic Infestation

Many struggle in their minds to overcome weaknesses and obsessions. These conflicts sometimes appear to be personal but they are really demonic infestations. Sexual lusts and attractions are a major area of conflict especially for men. When these conflicts are personalised it becomes a struggle to change. This leads to internal conflicts and guilt and shame follow. We become victims of our own conflicts. Temptations are real but this is not sin. To sin is to give in to the temptation. The devil works through our mind to confuse us and to blame us for our unwanted desires. Once he has a foothold he sends his demons to occupy that place in our soul. This is demonic infestation. No amount of counselling can get the demon out. It is only deliverance that can expel the demons out. Once the demon is expelled then it is easier to fight the temptation. The blood of Jesus is able to expel any demonic infestation. Apply His blood to the areas of your life that you struggle in.
Jesus overcame the devil with His word. He quoted the Word as the Word has power from heaven. Heavenly power can expel and resist every word or thought sent against you. Demonic infestation is a major problem for many especially christians. This is the way the devil tears down a person and makes them a victim. Jesus came to make us victors not victims. His power is available to all who will call on His Name. They overcame him through the word of their testimony and the blood. What you confess will be a weapon that will destroy the works of the enemy. Claim the power of the wonder woking blood of Jesus. His living blood has power to overcome every disease and attack like no other. Today be set free in Jesus Name.

You Are A New Creation In Christ Jesus

Jesus came in the flesh. He carried the God gene in Him but also the human gene through Mary. He had the same potential in Him to sin as you and I. Yet He did not sin. The God gene in Him was able to overcome every temptation to sin. He did this till He was crucified on the Cross for you and for me. His death on the Cross paid the penalty for sin. Now the devil, world and the flesh has no more dominion over you. The power of sin was cancelled. Sin works through the devil, world and the fallen flesh. Christ’s sacrifice like a lamb sacrificed cancelled the power of sin and cleansed us from all sin. This is the power of the blood of Jesus. His sacrifice now has power to continuously cleanse us from all sin as He lives. He not only died but he rose again so that we could experience His life in us. His resurrection life enables us to live like Him. He made us new and planted His seed in us. His Holy Spirit resides in us just as He did in Jesus. It is through His presence in us that we can overcome temptation as He did. All we need to do is live a surrendered life like He did.
What an exchange this is. His life implanted in us. His seed from heaven implanted in us so that now we have His gene in us.His Spirit in us is the key to victory. Jesus never was sick. He was troubled, tempted and opposed. He suffered much but never gave into temptation. He confronted the devil with the Word of God. He operated in the gifts of the Spirit. He went through every temptation and challenge known to man to redeem man from it. Now he has deposited this gene in us to enable us to do the same. What a salvation, what a redemption, what a life.

Are You Operating IN The Normal Zone Or Miraculous?

We are all operating in a zone and your life is limited or unlimited depending on how you live. Jesus came to give us abundant life. This life of abundance is like how He lived when He walked on earth. He now resides in heaven having accomplished what He had to do on earth. We too can live that life because He purchased it for us on the Cross. We can choose to live like He did or operate in the limited life of natural man. He came to give us eternal life. This life has no beginning and no end. Living His life on earth is only possible in the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit was sent to help us to experience the abundant life He promised. This life cannot be bought. It has to be received by faith. You were born again when you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. The same way you are baptised in the Holy Spirit when you are filled in Him by faith. Now He is your life and He will lead you to all things new. The old has passed away.You are a new creation in Him. What a divine exchange this is.
Operating in the Holy Spirit is to operate in the miraculous. We can choose to walk according to the flesh or the Spirit. In the Spirit a whole new realm of reality is opened up to us. Jesus walked as He saw and heard what His Father was doing. We too can operate by seeng and hearing in the Spirit. This is an elevated life. No more operating in human terms but in the Spirit. Which life would you choose? God is calling us to operate in the Spirit for this is the life without burden or stress. He carries us. Choose this life today.

How To Minister From The Heart

Ministering From The Heart Brings Transformation

Ministering From The Heart Brings Transformation
Jesus ministry was always from the heart. Many minister from the head. Head knowledge is information while heart knowledge leads to transformation.
Many do not understand the revelation hidden in Jesus’ words. Many took what He said literally when He said the temple will be torn down and rebuilt in three days (Matthew 26:61). When one thinks and communicates knowledge it results in information and head knowledge. Revelation, communicating with the heart, is received at a heart level. We are all spirit beings and our spirit will only receive as spirit communicates with spirit.

The art of heart communication

The art of communicating to the heart means to be operating in the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will gives us the words and images to communicate from the heart to other’s hearts. This is why it is so important to be filled by the Holy Spirit and to overflow in Him. He is able to express Himself through us as we surrender to His leading and prompting. Signs and wonders follow those who minister in partnership with the Holy Spirit.
A true test of heart ministry is the manifestation of signs and wonders. Jesus spoke and signs followed Him. He turned water into wine. He raised the dead and gave sight to the blind. Another true test of ministry is transformation. When lives are transformed then you know that the Holy Spirit is ministering through the believer.

Choosing the better thing

Knowledge is good, but information only changes thinking. We can be filled with knowledge, but until it becomes heart knowledge it remains at the head level. Some ministries are sadly built on information sharing. Many Christians continue to struggle to live a victorious life, but remain unchanged. The blind cannot continue to lead the blind. The Church needs the transforming power of the Holy Spirit.
Let’s not be content with operating in our heads, but enter into His promises of abundance now!

The Cross, Your Conscience, And Sharing Jesus With Others

The Cross, Your Conscience, And Sharing Jesus With Others

The way of redemption from a seared conscience.

The Cross, Your Conscience, And Sharing Jesus With Others
Your conscience is the part of your mind that determines what is right and wrong. We were born in sin. And therefore, we are aware of what is good and evil. This is the part of us that is created in the image of God. We are therefore able to know what is good for us and what is bad for us. However, through life experience and upbringing, our conscience can be seared. The traumas and hurts in life can alter our conscience. Some have experienced severe abuse and rejection and their conscience has become dull. Unforgiveness can also deaden our conscience. Jesus came to set the captive free; he did so on the Cross. And we are those captives he came for – captive to our sinful natures.

The Cross Holds The Solution

Jesus, through His death on the Cross, came with the solution. His death on the Cross paid the price for our redemption from the curse and power of sin. His death resulted in our conscience becoming alive to the need for salvation. This is the Gospel in a nutshell. We become sin conscious and therefore our conscience convicts us of our sin. The Bible states that we were dead in our sins. It is our responsibility to make His salvation known both to the Jew and the Gentile. We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God.

Sharing Jesus With Others

Our destiny is to share in God’s glory. This is how God planned it from the beginning. However, sin entered our lives through the fall of man, but God’s redemption plan was to send Jesus to die for us. His death served to reverse the course of our lives and redeem us from eternal death. Praise God for His eternal plan of salvation. Our conscience can now help us in our daily walk to choose what is right and good. There is no other way a man can be saved but through the Cross!
I challenge you to share your salvation through Jesus with someone today. Open someone else’s eyes and heart to God’s redemptive power, His love, and His glory.

From Walking by Sight To Walking By Faith


From Walking By Sight To Walking By Faith

Shift in operating in the Spirit


From Walking By Sight To Walking By Faith
“For we walk by faith, not by sight.” (2 Corinthians 5:7)
God is Spirit and He calls us to trust in Him and not in our own might. He has done so for our own good for He wants to carry our burdens. We like to think that we can do it on our own which has been the problem of mankind from the beginning. Satan wanted to do it on his own and as sinners, that is our natural inclination. Walking by faith is a journey of trust. The more we trust God, the more we will let go and let God.

Trust Level


This is a lesson I am learning after 50 years of walking with Him. My trust levels have increased and so has my faith level. Now I am looking for opportunities to trust Him rather than my own strength. Even in ordinary experiences of asking for a free car parking space, I exercise my faith. In this way I get courage to ask for bigger things and expect answers. This is so exciting! It is easy to slip back to walking in the flesh when challenges increase yet this is the way the Lord trains us to walk by faith.
“For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” (Romans 1:17)

Saint and Sight


Abraham walked by faith and there are many examples in the Bible of saints who walked by faith and reaped immense rewards. Saints in the present are also called to walk by faith and not trust in their own strength. I trust that many will shift the focus from self to God on their journey of faith. Burdens carried by many will be lifted as they let go and let God carry their burdens.
“If we live by the Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit.” (Galatians 5:25)

The Mystery Of Jesus, Both God And Man

The Mystery Of Jesus, Both God And Man

Jesus, although God, restricted Himself to live as man connected to God

Jesus is God and man. While on earth He operated as a man and as God. He is the Son of God. Yet He took on the characteristics of man created in God’s imageHe went through the whole process of creation from conception to birth except that He was conceived in the womb of a virgin. He grew up as a child and went through all the developmental phases. He experienced all the trials and temptations faced by man. His divine nature was active from the beginning and He was imbued with power after His baptism by John the Baptist. Jesus had to spend many hours in prayer to commune with His Father in heaven and draw strength to face His daily battles. He was fully God and fully man. He overcame through His divine nature. He experienced the sinful nature of man but did not sin. He suffered and died a physical death but rose again. In His resurrected body He could move around without the physical limitations of His earthly body. He performed miracles in His physical body through His divine nature.
We also who are born again of the Spirit have a divine nature because His Spirit now lives in us. We too can operate the same way Jesus did, now that we have His new nature within us. We are a new creation in Christ Jesus. We also have a dual nature or personality. We also can operate as Jesus did in our divine nature. We too can perform miracles as Jesus did through His Spirit. What a divine transaction! Now all we need to do is surrender to His will and allow Him to grow in us. We too need to develop our spiritual nature till we attain to the fullness of manhood as Christ did. Only through the fullness of His Spirit is this possible.

Walking On Water

Over the past 2 years I have been on a journey of having to defend my communications on social media after a gay activist reported me to my medical board.The board investigated the complaint and placed 24 conditions on my registration. I challenged these conditions through my defence union and the conditions were reduced to 5. I was not satisfied with the reduced conditions as there was no evidence that my views expressed on social media were implemented in my practice in psychiatry. I appealed the conditions and a hearing date was set for a hearing before a tribunal. Meanwhile all the conditions were stayed and therefore I could continue to practice freely.I decided to retire from practice 6 months ago but wanted to continue with the appeal to support freedom of speech. My defence union withdrew its support as they felt they had done as much as they could to achieve a good outcome. I decided to represent myself at the tribunal. The Australian Christian Lobby were prepared to support me but could not afford to pay for a barrister, and I was not willing to bear the expensive cost either. During this period,many from the medical and justice systems who would have never read my blogs were forced to read them. I was prepared to be thrown into the lion's den, confident that their mouths would be shut and the  court room would be filled with His presence. This never eventuated as I cancelled the proceedings after I was told that I had to pay a hefty fee before the hearing. This did not matter now since I had already retired from practice 6 months ago. Through this journey I have learnt that God has used my voice to influence many who would never have read my blogs that are mainly a reflection of my daily thoughts on my spiritual journey. The whole experience has challenged me to "walk on water" and see God come through on each step of my journey.

YOUR SPIRIT HOUSES THE HOLY SPIRIT

Just as your body houses your spirit so also your spirit houses the Holy Spirit. You are a spirit on a earthly journey. Your body is just a house and operates through your senses. Your spirit is in tune with God and communicates with God. Your body senses His presence around you and within you. To be made in God's image is to be born in the spirit with God-like characteristics. This is why limiting your potential to what you can physically comprehend is limiting your true potential. God in you is limitless. When you grasp this your body will respond in like manner. You will be transformed accordingly. You will be able to achieve more than you can think or imagine. Your spirit will begin to control all your thinking and actions. Nothing will be impossible for you when God is in it. This is how man was able to achieve much through little. This is how man will continue to achieve more than is imaginable in the future. Enlarge your vision as there are no limits to what you can achieve in Him. Boundaries are only there to limit you. There are no boundaries in God. God is limitless. Therefore when you operate in the Spirit you become like God. You operate in His strength and might. The kingdom of God is within you. This means that the King reigns in you. All that belongs to Him belongs to you. Believe this and see His kingdom be established on earth as it is in heaven.

TERRORISM IN YOUR MIND

Terrorism is a fear word that raises the emotion of fear in many. Terrorism aims to spread terror and those who have experienced it suffer for years from the after effects of an attack. However few realise that terror invades our minds daily and yet we ignore its effects. The fear thoughts we have plague our minds and paralyse some. We don't want to talk about it because it will sound weak. Negative thoughts become a habit and keep us awake at night and disrupt our sleep. This then leads to other ailments of the body and mind. Many sicknesses are due to negative thoughts about self or others. It is easier to talk about terror attacks that occur outside the mind than in the mind. What is outside is more objective and is more distant from self. Acts of terrorism begin in the mind through programming and identifying an external enemy. It is easier to attack a perceived enemy than one who is within. Many ideologies have the same impact. Self is protected by blaming another. Putting another down is an age old technique of putting one up called upmanship. Once we identify the enemy within then it is easier to make changes and be at peace. A lot of wars start at this level of thinking. Many defend themselves against an enemy but fail to see that their real enemy is within them. The key to healing is in addressing the fear within and the perceived threat from outside will diminish rapidly.
