'Mission Complete'....Home from the Philippines

Good morning everyone

Im glad to say that I am now back from the three week mission to the
Philippines and that I had an amazing time. It was all about simply 'Hosting
His Presence' and He was so gracious to allow me to experience that in a most
powerful way throughout this mission. Here are two reports copied from my
Facebook Ministry page thart I sent out on Facebook. You may have read them
there but for those of you not on Facebook here they are again. They are
reports of some of the things I witnessed in the Philippines.

Thanks so much for your prayers. Lets give Him ALL THE GLORY ok for He
alone deserves the praise?

This link is is what happened in the Revival meeting fir 700 Pastirs
Leaders and Teachers of the Word in Santa Barabara organised by PATMOS
(Pastors Teachers and Ministers of Santa Barabara) last Friday a week
ago.

Report One

I am now safely in the Philippines and have been so blessed to see
the Lord so graciously move again during these first few days. He has moved
in mighty power and healing love at the various assignments at which He had
prepared for me to minister, here in Manila, Philippines. Oh I love this
nation and its people. ...their warm heart and openness to the wind of the
Holy Spirit.
I want to thank you so much for your
prayers. Because of it I have experienced such a fresh and deeper anointing,
an ease and sensitivity to the Spirit, and a sense of watching the Lord at
work through my mouth or hands which is somehow different to other
times.
My prayer had been just as it was for the
mission to India and Nepal in October/November last "If your Spirit does not
go with me then please do not send me"....and He has been so faithful! We all
sense Him. It's beautiful! It's like.....basking and relaxing in warm
sunshine, yet somehow being fully involved in the activity of the Spirit as
He heals the sick, delivers the oppressed or possessed, baptises the hungry
in the Holy Spirit. Even the little children sensed the gentleness of the
Lord and he comes close to touch their little lives and bless them with His
Spirit....Holy Spirit.
Let me give you just one
example. On Sunday the day after the the RCCG Covenant service in Manila, I
was invited to preach at the main RCCG parish or church service . There was
such a sense of praise and of deep worship. After I had preached on the
message of the Bride, the invitation was given for anyone who wanted prayer
for any reason to come the front of the church. The entire congregation
responded. They came to receive from the Lord what He wanted to give them.
Well over 100 people stood in reverend anticipation as He moved amongst us.
Demons were cast out in silent gentleness without noise or exhibitionism.
...yet clearly manifesting their presence and control within the live of the
oppressed. Much inner healing and forgiveness and binding up of the broken
hearted was going on. Several were healed of sugar diabetes, stomach
conditions, growths and tumours. Everyone was laid out under the power of the
Spirit..slain in His presence as He healed their bodies, minds or hearts.
Then the children all gathered around for their touch from the Lord. Fear was
dispelled as His gentle love embraced them. One little child thought it was
like magic because he literally felt the quiet force of the Spirit touch His
body.....because you see I wouldn't touch them but just invited the Holy
Spirit to bless them. And He did!
We quickly
explained that it wasn't magic but was God Himself loving them and filling
them with Himself. They were excited and very happy and yet so serious at the
same time. One little boy of about four was sitting on the stage cross legged
sobbing in the the Presence of God. It was so beautiful to watch.
The whole church congregation were visibly moved as each one
encountered God personally and individually.
We give to Him
all the glory....amen? Please continue praying. Thank you

Report Two

Good morning from the Philippines. God continues to move amongst His
people here and reveal His love at the Pastors meetings and seminars. The
message of unity of the body and of the Bride continues to have great impact.
I'm staying with Pastors Ian and Elaine Woodage (a Philippino Pastor lady and
Ian her English husband) who are the national directors for the RCCG City of
David church here in the Philippines. The RCCG church comes from Lagos
Nigeria and I first met Ian and Elaine in Lagos 4 years ago when I was a
guest at Daddy Adeboya the General overseers, at the 60th Anniversary of the
RCCG Church. It's a real joy to get to know them and follow the programme
they have arranged for me.
However it's in the moments
outside the official programme that we see God at work too. In this report I
just want to concentrate on these 'divine encounters' which He arranges so
wonderfully. It really is like being on a treasure hunt.
Day 1. I am overwhelmed. God is amongst us here. Yesterday morning
the mother and her son who I had ministered to yesterday and whom I saw so
wonderfully healed and restored brought the father and her long time but
estranged partner to see me. The Lord had already prepared his heart and he
repented before them and got wonderfully saved and the marriage was restored
with tears and hugs. It was awesome. I instructed them now to get married
officially and live a life honouring to God
Day 2 Thought
you would like to know that we had a prayer and worship meeting with the
children and youth last night in the garden where I'm staying and the angels
arrived. Yes....four of the boys and girls independently saw the angels
dancing around just above our heads as we stood outside in the garden in a
circle to worship. They each were touched individually by an angel and a man
in white clothes touch their shoulders from behind. As this happened they
each were reduced to weeping on the ground. One older girl with a small lump
which she had mentioned about before in her breast felt the lump being
plucked out. It was gone. Hallelujah. We are experiencing revival stuff.
Apparantly a shaft of white light was over my head as I ministered and a
beautiful dove appeared. Isnt God good?
One young girl felt
the touch of an angel and at that moment felt all the hatered and
unforgiveness she had carried towards her father drain out of her life. That
was how she explained it. She was just 9 years old
Day 3.
Today I met the leader of the Pastors fellowship of this area. He came with
another Pastor to the house where I'm staying. The Lord moved so powerfully
upon them both after prayer that they were literally drunk with such joy and
laughter. I was worried because they had to leave to attend another meeting.
I can still see them now riding away on a motorbike still laughing
uncontrollably. He was so excited that he is now arranging a special meeting
for all the pastors of the area so I can share the message of Unity and the
Bride when I return to this island again next week.
Day 4
I'm travelling to Manila, the capital, today in advance of my flight on
Sunday to Dipolog and the week's ministry on the island of Mindanoa. In
Manila I have several important servants of God to meet and a large meeting
on Saturday in the cjty. But yesterday before I left I met the President of
the Gideons here in the Philippines. It is a real privilege to meet such
generals. I was asked to pray for him and it was so moving to see him moved
to tears as he felt a fresh touch from the Lord. He said that when I prayed
and laid my hands on him he felt the hands of God. Wow! What a privilege and
oh so so humbling. How many people have the privilege to pray for such
people?
And so Today
I am now on the
island of Mindanoa with Pastor Peter Beliganio and his wife Pastor Susan and
are about to leave for a 4 day tour of those churches I met last time I was
here. I shall be back her by Thursday and will have more testimonies to
share.
God bless you all and thanks so much for your
prayers.
"If Your presence does not go with me then do not
send me"
Much love
