Open Door in 2024, wheat & tares vision, prophetic word re moral purity move & decrees – Ps Barbara Miller

DECREES FOR OPEN DOORS IN 2024 by Ps Barbara Miller

There are 9 decrees based on the miracle menorah of Hanukkah and one prayer

  1. I decree that every door and miracle the Lord wants to be opened for me in 2024 will open before me at the right time and right place and all spiritual and physical resistance to my entering will fall and be vanquished.
  2. I decree that I will possess the gates the enemy has been preventing me from entering (Gen 22:17-18) and miracles, signs, and wonders follow me all the days of my life.
  3. I decree I will enter these gates and doors with thanksgiving and praise and the joy of the Lord. (Psalms 100:4-5, Prov 8:34)
  4. I decree that what God has opened, no man or demon in hell can shut. I walk through these doors in faith and for the glory of God. (Rev 3:7-10)
  5. I decree an increase in my spiritual discernment so I will know which doors or gates the Lord is opening to me and I will avoid trapdoors and false paths.
  6. I decree that fear, confusion, false vision, and false teaching will not enter with me through the doors God is opening.
  7. I decree I will enter the doors the Lord is opening for me with clean hands and a pure heart (Psalm 24)
  8. I decree I will answer when the Lord opens a door in heaven and calls on me to come up here and show me great and mighty things and His plans for the future. (Jer 33:3, Rev 4:1-2). I call myself blessed to come into a place of intimacy and hear the Lord’s heart. Help me Lord to listen carefully and change me from glory to glory.
  9. I decree that I will extend my hands to receive the gift of the keys of David from the Lord and I will rebuild the Tabernacle of David as the Lord directs me for His glory. Sealed with the signet ring of the Lord Jesus Christ, Yeshua Ha Mashiach

PRAYER Most of all Lord, I thank You for opening the door to salvation and eternal life through your death and resurrection and my receiving you as my Saviour. You are the door to heaven. (John 10:7-9)

Government of Goats (Matt 25)? Genesis 12 curse on Australia by our treatment of Israel & Jews?

By Ps Norman Miller 20.1.24

On Sept 11 2001 (911), the Lord told me to raise the Tabernacle of David as an answer to terrorism (Amos 9:11-15)

It may be time for the hunters again and some Australians have prepared safe places to hide Jews for their safety.

Jeremiah 16:15-15 “but, ‘The Lord lives who brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north and from all the lands where He had driven them.’ For I will bring them back into their land which I gave to their fathers.

“Behold, I will send for many fishermen,” says the Lord, “and they shall fish them, and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they shall hunt them from every mountain and every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.”

Australia Day – Survival to Revival & Invasion to Transformation.

Melbourne 2009

“People travelled from all over Australia to Melbourne for the Australia Day prayer to break covenant with the rainbow serpent and recovenant Australia to the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and of our Lord Jesus Christ. We also raised up prayer at the same time in many towns in Australia with prayer points we had prepared to pray in unison.

Why did we hold this prayer meeting? Norman and I were asked to lead a seminar on “the role of indigenous people in bringing the kingdom of God to Australia” to be presented at the 080808 conference organised by Hiliary Moroney in Canberra last year. In preparing, the Lord showed me that the key strategy was to hold a prayer meeting on Australia Day each year to break covenant with the rainbow serpent and recovenant the nation to the Lord.

We had dealt with it significantly in the past in prayer on the Sydney Harbour Bridge in early 2001 because it had been flashed over the bridge in New Years Eve fireworks and in our Healing the People Healing the Land conference at Uluru in July 2005 and on other occasions. As we left Uluru in our buses, two people looked back and took photos of Uluru. When they looked at their images later, the rainbow serpent with its head cut off and its eggs was leaving the rock. It could not be seen in the natural but was caught on camera.

As Uluru is believed to be its lair, wasn’t that the end of it? One problem is that Aboriginal people and others continue to worship it and feed it so that is why the Lord has given us this assignment to raise up these Australia Day prayer events and it is a long term prayer strategy that will gather support.” 

To read more, see. 

Yarrabah 2010

Norman said that the rain was a sign of blessing. He said that before our July conference, “The Glory is Mine” in Cairns, he saw a hand so he watched and waited like Habbakuk. As we humble ourselves and repent, God will hear us. 2 Chron 7:14. I saw the hand of God with the letters PRAY. The Lord said to me to call a prayer rally. I said yes, Lord where? Then I realised it was at Yarrabah – P-Prayer, R-Rally, A-at, Y-Yarrabah. He then gave me the date – 26 Jan 2010- Australia Day.

You know what that date means to many Aboriginal people. Some years ago, I hesitated to celebrate this day too because it’s a day that celebrates colonisation etc. But things are beginning to turn. Gen 50:20 – what the enemy meant for wrong, God is turning it around for the good.

Canberra 2019

SPIRITUALLY GOVERNING
Barbara shared 2 sessions on Jan 25 – one on Spiritual Government and one on Turning the Boat of this Nation Around. In Nov 18, the Lord gave me the first as a prayer strategy and the second as a vision. The prayer strategy is that we need to set up a shadow spiritual ministry just as the opposition political party does in the natural. Prayer leaders would each take a ministry to pray for and there are 31 besides the PM plus assistant ministers.

The idea is to bring a shift to godly values in our nation. The government of the nations is on the shoulders of Jesus or Yeshua and therefore on our shoulders (Isaiah 9:6-7). So, we as the church, the body of Christ, need to be spiritual governors. We need to rule and reign from heavenly places. Eph 3:10 tells us that: “His intent was that now, through the church, the manifold wisdom of God should be made known to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms,” so we need to be more intentional about this.  It is not aimed to be an activist group. This will take some time to set up and we are reaching out to prayer leaders to participate and those who would be in prayer teams.

The Lord spoke to Norman when we hosted a Sons of Abraham conference in Israel in 2017 to set up a GAP Network – Gathering Apostolic Prophetic Network. It is based on Ezekiel 22:30 where God looked for a man to stand in the gap for Israel so He would not have to punish it but He found none. We need this for Australia and it will dovetail with the spiritual government we are setting up.

Canberra 2020

After the worship, Barbara commissioned angels to take their place, released a prophetic word for Australia for 2020, made decrees and shared about a spiritual shadow government they had set up after the Australia Day Prayer last year. 

Colonisation
Norman represented the Indigenous people of Australia and spoke of the hurts of colonisation. He said the Lord had given him Genesis 26, the first book of the Bible for January 26, the first month of the year which is Australia Day and we need to overcome conflict and strife and make room in this nation to live together just as Abraham and then Isaac made a treaty with the King of the Philistines.

Captain Cook
It is the 250th anniversary of Captain Cook mapping the east coast of Australia and claiming it for the UK. He said there was conflict at Botany Bay (now Sydney) and Cook forced his way ashore and wounded an Aboriginal man.

First Act of Reconciliation in Australia 1770
He then travelled north along the east coast in 1770 to what is now called Cooktown and he would not share the turtles they caught with the Aboriginal people so there was a fight. Captain Cook wounded an Aboriginal man and as they ran, he kept their spears. Then an Aboriginal elder came forward with the tip of his spear broken off in an act of reconciliation, the first one in Australia, and Cook gave the spears back.

Norman showed us a painting he had done of Captain Cook. He said that Dutchman Willem Janszoon was the first European to set foot on Australia at Mapoon, not Cook, and Barbara had written 2 books about it. Norman declared a jubilee because it was 5 jubilees since Cook came and 5 is the number of grace so this is time of restoration of the land and people and a time of grace.

Norman also explained that Australia Day commemorates the arrival of the first fleet from Britain and the setting up of the colony of NSW (and Australia) so Aborigines call it Survival Day or Invasion Day but he calls it from Survival to Revival and from Invasion to Transformation.

Governor Arthur Philip
Norman stood in the gap for his tribe and Aborigines generally and called for acceptance and understanding from the Australians. Ps Norman shared that Governor Philip had named Manly because he thought Aborigines looked manly. He was friendly with some but was speared in the shoulder by one after a misunderstanding.

Norman shared he had prophetically removed the spear from Gov Phillip in England on a Reconciliation Tour in 1998. He did it again now, using a real spear he and Glen had made. Norman was also prophetically pulling the spear or wounds out of white Australians with British heritage at the same time.

Glen represented Australian Torres Strait Islanders, the other Indigenous group in Australia, and said that they would stand with Ps Norman and the Australian Aborigines and they respect that Torres Strait Islanders are on Aboriginal land. They are a family who love each other in the Lord.

Glen presented Norman with a wooden turtle, traditional food in the Torres Strait, as a reconciliation gesture on behalf of their people groups.

Indigenous Friends of Israel Decry Islamic Preachers’ Calls for Jihad by Norman & Barbara Miller

8 NOVEMBER 2023

Indigenous Friends of Israel founders Norman and Barbara Miller refute the claims of Brother Ismail recently at the Al Madina Dawah Centre, southwest Sydney that Hamas is not a terrorist organisation. He also called for Jihad.

Indigenous Friends of Israel also raises concerns that not only has the Al Madina Dawah Centre not distanced themselves from this, but it has released a similar tirade from another preacher. No other Islamic organisation has taken issue with this call to kill Jews either.

Hamas is recognised as a terrorist organisation in Australia and other nations and the slaughter, torture, and mutilation of Israelis, many in their beds, the burning alive of families, raping women, beheading babies, killing children and elderly including Holocaust survivors and kidnapping is a terrorist act. It has unleashed a bloodlust around the world for Jewish blood, which is what was intended. This cannot be justified under any circumstances. SEE MORE

Unfortunately, Rabbi Ari Rubin from Chabad NQ had to draw attention to the bullying of Jewish schoolchildren in Cairns. Children at private and public schools called Jewish children “dirty Jews” and one 11-year-old Jewish girl was circled by schoolchildren shouting “Free Palestine” to her. This is inexcusable antisemitism, racism, and intimidation. Indigenous Friends of Israel has responded by trying to get antibullying education from Courage to Care into these schools. We were able to get Courage to Care into many schools in the Far North run by Catholic Education a number of years ago. 

Above is an interview we did with “The Cairns Post.”

RECONCILIATION NEWZ BUZZ Sept 2023 no 2, 27 Sept

Long-time Supporter of Indigenous Advancement Will Vote No to the Voice and Explains Why in a New Book Called Voice, Treaty Truth: Has the Christian Voice Been Heard? 

Pastor Barbara Miller and her husband Aboriginal pastor Norman Miller will vote no to the Voice and she explains why in a new book called Voice, Treaty Truth: Has the Christian Voice Been Heard? The book covers the journey of how she got to this decision after being an activist in First Nations affairs for over 50 years.

On the verge of the Voice Referendum and as part of a heated debate about the Voice, this new book comes out on Amazon on October 6, just in time to inform Christians and other voters on referendum day October 14.

Author Barbara Miller says, “I wrote the book because I don’t believe the Christian voice, of First Nations and others, has been heard. I don’t want Australia to be divided by race and I value equality before the law and the Voice will breach this. These are basic Christian values. If it succeeds, the Voice will divide First Nations people themselves as well as the rest of the population.

“This book not only covers all the reasons to vote yes and all the reasons to vote no as well as the progressive no case but also looks at the spiritual dynamics and motivations behind the positions people are taking. As a pastor and former psychologist, this is an important area to explore, especially when there is so much confusion around the Voice.

“I have also been an activist in First Nations affairs for over 50 years and have written over a dozen books, many of them on First Nations issues. As a historian and sociologist, I have followed the Voice debate closely and covered the history leading to where we are now. Regrettably, I will probably lose some of my friendships forged with First Nations and other activists over many years. However, I also have to live with my conscience and I have to listen to a higher Voice – the Voice of God.

“I have had visions and dreams that have led me to re-examine my position and call out the support of major churches for a Constitutional Voice. This could lead to the possible constitutional recognition of Aboriginal spirituality when there is meant to be a separation of religion and state in the constitution as per section 116 which deals with religious freedom. This section prohibits the imposition of any religious observance which could include Welcome to Country ceremonies.

“Also, I do not believe we need another expensive bureaucracy that will cut across the many First Nations voices we already have with no guarantee it will Close the Gap or improve the lives on the ground for First Nations people. 

“My husband Munganbana Norman Miller is an Aboriginal pastor and artist and is of the Jirrbal, Bar-barrum, and Wadjanbarra Yidinji people of north Queensland. He campaigned for many years for the recognition of First Nations people and the removal of racism from the constitution. He presented a giant boomerang with 360 signatures on the back saying “No Racism in the Constitution” to then-Speaker Bronwyn Bishop at Parliament House on 27 November 2013. Norman donated this to the Museum of Australian Democracy in Old Parliament House and they have included it in a special exhibition.

“His on-paper petition based on the Expert Panel’s recommendations was presented to federal parliament in two stages by Warren Entsch MP in December 2013 and February 2016 totaling over 5,000 signatures gathered by hand from around Australia.

“We presented a smaller version of this boomerang to Senators Jacinta Nampijinja Price and Kerrynne Liddle at Parliament House Canberra on July 31 this year.

“I launch my book by Zoom on 29 September at 6.30 pm but it is already available for pre-order and will be sent to those who have ordered it on 6 October LINK. A paperback will be available too but you might not receive it till after the referendum.”

Chag Sameach! Happy Sukkot as we commemorate the Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkot Fri, 29 Sept 2023 – Fri, 6 Oct 2023

BOOK DESCRIPTION OF BARBARA’S NEW BOOK

See other books on LINK

Australia is at a crossroads. Is it a racist nation? Will reconciliation ever be possible? Will it be divided forever? Will we have two classes of citizens, Indigenous and non-Indigenous after the Voice Referendum on October 14? Do we have to deal with the original sin of colonialism as the foundation of Australia from which we can never have redemption or forgiveness?

Is separatism the way forward? Or can Australia heal after this divisive debate over the Voice to Parliament and government referendum? We are fighting for the very heart of Australia. We are soul-searching about who we really are as a nation and what we want to be and our vision of the future. We are told that whether we are black or white, First Nations or non-Indigenous that if we vote yes, we are enshrining racism in the constitution and if we vote no, we are racist, ignorant, and hateful. Years of work for reconciliation and to build a multicultural cohesive society in Australia are at risk.

Has the Christian voice been heard? This book gives a Christian response by a pastor and former psychologist who has been an activist and researcher in First Nations affairs for over 50 years. She explains why she has changed from supporting the Uluru Statement from the Heart to voting no at the referendum.
Barbara is a prayer leader, sociologist, and historian who is a bestselling author and has written over a dozen books, most of them on Australian history involving First Nations people. She has also written books on the Holocaust and on Christianity.

INDIGENOUS FRIENDS OF ISRAEL & TABERNACLE OF DAVID CAIRNS CONFERENCE

We were very blessed to have Ps Avi and Chaya Mizrachi and their family – daughter Devora, 2 grandchildren and nephew Eden and niece Linoy for our Indigenous Friends of Israel and Tabernacle of David Cairns conference 18-20 August. They came from ministering in the Solomon Islands. It was a very anointed conference and we were all so blessed. This was just 2 weeks after Ps Norman and Barbara had hosted a Church and Cultural Challenges conference in Canberra. 

We were also blessed to have David and Carol Jack come from Melbourne and for David to video both conferences. He is still working on these but in the meantime, we have a few not-so-professional videos of the Cairns conference for you to look at on YouTube. We started with a Shabbat meal and ended with an amazing prophetic act of the tribes aligning themselves with the tribe of Judah and Israel. These are not available as yet.

This photo was sent to Barbara by an Egyptian intercessor concerned at the Australian government’s decision to use Hamas terminology that the West Bank (which includes East Jerusalem) and Gaza are “occupied territories” rather than Australia’s previous position that they were “disputed territories.” Hamas, a terrorist organisation, is hailing this decision. It is also inaccurate in that Israel pulled out of Gaza many years ago. This decision was made a few days prior to the National ALP conference in exchange for the Socialist Left’s support of the AUKUS defence agreement. 

We believe the timing of our conference was strategic in that it was the same timing as the National ALP Conference in Brisbane. Barbara spoke about this in her message (available in the next newsletter) and made a decree of reversal of their policy. See our press release of 10 August here –https://indigenousfriendsofisrael.org/indigenous-friends-of-israel-australia-press-release-10-8-23/

The Southern Cross Alliance for Israel (SCAFI) also put a press release out on 15 August signed off by John Lockwood and 30 mostly Christian organisations with some Jewish. David Jack did the leg work on it to get agreement on the wording. Our Centre for International Reconciliation and Peace and Indigenous Friends of Israel are 2 of the signatories.

The ALP has long had a position to recognize Palestine as a state though it doesn’t meet the requirements internationally recognized for a state. There was a push at this conference to recognize Palestine as a state immediately. However, after some debate, it was decided that the status quo would remain. 

Indigenous Friends of Israel had a meeting after the conference of state and city coordinators so we are stretching the tent pegs as in Isaiah 54 so if you are interested, please let us know. Non-Indigenous people can be associate members as we believe in reconciliation. Email us here: https://indigenousfriendsofisrael.org/contact-us/

Many gifts were exchanged. This is a 2m x 2m canvas painting that Norman, who paints under his Aboriginal name of Munganbana (Mountain Water) gave to Ps Avi and Chaya Mizrachi. This painting has the names of Norman’s tribes on it – Jirrbal, Bar-barrum and Wadjanbarra Yidinji

This is a specially made drum/tambourine that was given by the Mizrachis to the Millers. We will get more information for you and a closer-up photo in another newsletter.

So many people to thank – all those who attended, all those who prayed, those who contributed finances. Most of all we thank the Lord because without Him it would be impossible. Thanks to our Israeli speakers and to Ps Norman and Barbara Miller who spoke. Thanks to Mum Ps Shirley Miller and our TOD prayer team. Thanks also to Deborah Miller, Colleen Burfitt, and Lilian Miller for catering. We overflowed with food all weekend. Thanks to Judy Miller on registrations, Carol Jack on the book table, Deborah on the overhead projector and Thomas Miller & Colleen Burfitt on the amazing praise and worship with Israeli songs. Thanks for Devora, Eden and Linoy Mizrachi for leading Israeli dancing. Again, thanks to David Jack on video.

ISRAEL AMBASSADOR OPENS CONFERENCE

LEFT – We were pleased to have the Israel Ambassador to Israel Amir Maimon open our Church and Cultural Challenges conference on 27.7.23 at Lifestream Church in Canberra. Norman presented him with his award-winning art book. RIGHT – Carol and David Jack are pictured here with the Ambassador and Norman and Barbara. David presented the Ambassador with a book about his father’s art. Ps Lai from Taiwan also presented the Ambassador with his art. The Ambassador spoke about the importance of communicating the many positive messages about Israel, not just focusing on issues or conflict. He is reaching out to all Australians with this message. He spoke for about 20 mins and had a question and answer session at the end.

DON’T MISS OUT ON SPEAKERS FROM ISRAEL IN CAIRNS 18-20 AUGUST! HELP $$ INDIGENOUS PEOPLE TO COME here

REVIVAL COMING

A team of 9 with 3 pastors came from Taiwan to our Church & Cultural Challenges conference. They are Indigenous and Ps Lai spoke of the revival they had 50 years ago and he showed a video of it. His father was a key person in that revival. Ps Joy, an Indigenous pastor from Malaysia said it is 50 years also since their revival. Both nations are expecting and praying for revival to break out again. Ps Norman shared that he and his brother Tom and sister Colleen who came as part of the worship team from Cairns, were sons and daughters of a revivalist, Shirley Miller who was in the Pinnacle Pocket revival when she was a child. 

As Ps Peter Walker was unable to make it, his session became an international session with the Taiwan team, Ps Joy from Malaysia and Ps Dora Kua from PNG sharing. 

Ps Chen came to the 12.12.12 conference Norman and Barbara hosted in Sydney in 2012 and has since been in regular contact. He sees Ps Norman as a spiritual father and asked him to release a blessing which he did on the last day. Tears flowed and gifts were given and Barbara declared the blessings of Deut 28:1-14 over them.

 

Church & Cultural Challenges Conference Vision: 4 Visions and Angelic Intervention by Ps B Miller. 

SUMMARY

This was the first message of the conference on 27.7.23. The video missed the first few minutes of my message but I spoke of 4 visions I had in March which led me to organise this conference. The first one was of demonic entities coming out of the cave of Pan at Caesarea Philippi in Israel.

Strategic Time – Tish’a B’Av or 9 Av

Tish’a B’Av for the Hebrew Year 5783 began at sundown on Wednesday, 26 July 2023 and ended at nightfall on Thursday, 27 July 2023. This was the first day of our Canberra conference. It has been a disastrous day through history of the Jewish people, the day when Solomon’s temple was destroyed by the Babylonians and the second temple by the Romans, Jews were expelled from England and Spain, WW1 started and Hitler’s Final Solution was declared. I write about it in my book on Holocaust or Shoah survivor Lena Goldstein as that is when a large number of Jews were sent from Warsaw Ghetto to Treblinka death camp.

What were the spiritual issues that brought about these consequences? One was the bad report of the spies after they spied out the Promised Land for 40 days. They said we are like grasshoppers in their eyes and can’t take the land. This was after journeying all that way from Egypt and seeing all God’s miracles. The people cried grumbled & rebelled. Nu 14:1-3.

According to Rabbinic tradition, the sin of the spies produced the annual fast day of 9 Av. When the Israelites accepted the false report, they wept over the false belief that God was setting them up for defeat. The night that the people cried was the 9 Av, which became a day of weeping and tragedy for all time. We need to believe God’s promises and not see ourselves in the eyes of God’s enemies as grasshoppers but in God’s eyes.

We are in a 9 Av situation now.

We may look at giants in the land like identity politics, worship of the environment instead of God, a decline in values etc. and hear bad reports and get discouraged and frustrated and even lose hope and cry. We may be disappointed. But God is well able in His timing and His way to defeat His enemies and we are well able in His power to withstand the enemy and do all God has called us to do.

Give me my mountain!

We need to be like the 2 spies with the good report – Joshua and Caleb and say like Caleb, even at 85 years old, “Give me my mountain.” We were urged to declare this.

Prayer for the 7 Mountains

Lord, we pray you will give us the 7 mountains of cultural influence – family, religion, education, media, entertainment, business, and government. We pray to God to release angels to kindergartens, schools, universities, workplaces – government and corporate, parliaments and local councils, charities, sporting codes, media, entertainment, the arts, families, and churches to fight ungodly influences.

Decree

2 Sam 5:24:17-24. Baal Perazim means Lord of the Breakthrough.” Or YHWH Perazim so we declare and decree a breakthrough in bringing a cultural shift in our nations back to Judeo-Christian values in the name of the Lord of the breakthrough, the Lord of Heavens armies.

v24 As soon as you hear the sound of marching in the tops of the poplar (mulberry) trees, move quickly, because that will mean the Lord has gone out in front of you to strike the Philistine army.” The Lord told David to move after he heard the angelic army moving.

Warfare in the Heavenlies Over Australia

I sense we are experiencing warfare in the heavenlies over Australia as in the time of Daniel. Dan 10 tells us that Daniel prayed and fasted when he realized that the prophecy of Jeremiah showed it was time for the captives to return from Babylon to Israel. An angel finally appeared to him 21 days later, and explains the delay: the “prince of Persia” had been opposing him the whole time, and it wasn’t until Michael relieved the angel that he could continue his trip to Daniel. The angel gave Daniel long an outline of future events but had to return to fighting the prince of Persia and the prince of Greece. Only Michael supports this angel against these forces.

So there is likely to be an angel over Australia and a demonic spirit prince over Australia. We need to pray and ask God to release His angel over Australia on behalf of His plans and purposes and align ourselves with God’s purposes and activities.

 

Judah Must Go First & Waking Up From the Spirit of Woke by Ps Norman Miller 

In 1999, Barbara & I went to Ephesus to join Peter Wagner & Christians from many nations to pray against the Queen of Heaven. The strategy was to worship for 4 hours because in Biblical times, they worshipped Diana for 2hrs. That’s one reason why I wanted to start with 4 hrs worship.

After the death of Joshua, the Israelites asked the Lord, “Who of us is to go up first to fight against the Canaanites?” The Lord answered, “Judah shall go up; I have given the land into their hands.” Judges 1:1-2.

On the first night of the conference, we had no speaker just 4 hours of non-stop worship with Lifestream church taking the first hour, Tabernacle of David Cairns taking the 2nd and 4th hour and the third hour shared by international teams from Taiwan and Malaysia. We praise the Lord for an awesome night of breakthrough.

Double rainbow seen over Cairns first day of our Canberra conference (photo by Serene Tan) and rainbow seen over Canberra 28.7.23 (photo by Jacqueline Bedson.) In Genesis 9: 14-15, God told Noah, “Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.”

Even around the throne of God, there is pictured a majestic rainbow—used to communicate the glory of God (Rev. 4:3). We thank the Lord for His blessing over the conference.

So many people to thank – all those who attended, all those who prayed, those who contributed finances. Most of all we thank the Lord because without Him it would be impossible. Thanks to speakers – Cindy McGarvie, Dr Graham Mclennan, Daniel Simon. David Jack, Amanda Stoker by zoom and the international team – all incredible speakers with so much information for us to digest.

We had a live zoom for those who couldn’t come face to face. We won’t be providing DVDs but we do hope to have messages available on youtube to those who were registered and perhaps to others by donation as well. David Jack did an incredible job videoing as he has done for many of our conferences. Peter Taylor did an amazing job not just looking after the sound and making the PowerPoint of messages and songs available but also setting up and managing the live zoom. We thank Derek Bedson for looking after the overheads. Thanks to Peter, Derek, David, Glen Sebasio and Norman for setting up.

We were incredibly blessed by the LIfestream church who supported the conference not just with the venue but the catering and cleaning etc. It is a church of elders rather than pastors and the servant leadership of Peter and Kim Taylor and Derek and Jacqueline Bedson was unparalleled. May they receive their reward.

Thanks also to our faithful prayer team who met with us regularly for months to pray for the conference and Jacqueline who led up the prayer team during the conference. Also thanks to all the worship teams including our wonderful team from Cairns of Thomas Miller, Colleen Burfitt and Norman Miller with Glen Sebasio of Canberra joining us. We are grateful to Judy Miller who looked after the registration and book tables.

We thank David and Carol Jack for their financial help for the conference and Rod and Lyn Baker who decided to bless the speakers with dinner. Also thanks to Joy Silverwood for cooking lunches. Please pray for Kim, Jacqueline and Joy who will head to the Philippines for a mission trip.

We were very blessed to have the team from Taiwan and pastors from Malaysia and PNG joining us.

THE NEXT NEWSLETTER WILL HAVE MORE INFORMATION ON THE CANBERRA CONFERENCE AS THERE IS SO MUCH TO SHARE. SO STAY POSTED!!

You are in for a very interesting session with arts and media expert David Jack (above) who is one of the speakers for the Church & Cultural Challenges Conference in Canberra. He has given us a taste of what he will share in the following.

The Truth will set you free by David Jack

“In the Post Modernist age where do we find our Saviour? In Jesus or the World?

In media the power of film and TV can be a great thing but it can also beguile and deceive. So much portrayed through media the arts is set up against the church.

Those active agents fighting this influence are few but tenacious, we will explore and discuss them. What can one person do? If we are to be a light unto the nations it starts with each of us in our daily walk to reflect the characteristics of Jesus.”

Glen Sebasio on guitar and Ps Norman Miller leading worship at Lifestream church Canberra for an Australia Day prayer conference in 2019 that we hosted. In 2020, we hosted an Australia Day conference at Grace church Canberra. We have also led a Tabernacle of David workshop at Lifestream in 2018.

Norman believes the worship at the Church & Cultural Challenges conference will bring such a presence of God that people won’t want to go home afterwards but will want to stay in the presence. 

He has Acts 16:25-26 on his heart:

And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.  And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.

Be prepared for an earthquake that will set the prisoners free. When the jailer woke up, he was going to commit suicide as he thought the prisoners had fled, but Paul led him and his family to the Lord instead. Be prepared for an awakening where people wake up from the world’s woke agenda and we have a revival!

Norman and Barbara were blessed to speak recently at the Gold Coast at a meeting of Chinese pastors and leaders from the Gold Coast and Brisbane. It was good to catch up with our friends Judy Chiem, Debbie Tien and Monica Peng there.

Correction – The Calvary Hospital pulled down the cross after the ACT government’s forced takeover, not the government. Please continue to pray that there will be a Senate Inquiry to this situation.

REPORT FROM ALBERT VEKSLER, HOST JERUSALEM PRAYER BREAKFAST

The Mayor of the City of Gold Coast Tom Tate was our host and we had several dignitaries present from Australia, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Cook Islands, Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu – altogether 16 nations prayed for the peace of Jerusalem.

We saw something phenomenal that we haven’t seen before – governments sent their official representatives to the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast Gold Coast: Prime Minister of Fiji, Sitiveni Rabuka sent Deputy Prime Minister Gavoka; Prime Minister of Papua New Guinea, Marape sent the Minister of Community Development and Religion, The Hon. James Peter; Cook Islands Government sent Minister of the Crown, The Hon. Vainetutai Rose Toki-Brown; Solomon Islands’ government sent The Hon. Peter Kenilorea Jr., Member of the National Parliament and the Vanuatuan Prime Minister Kalsakau sent the Deputy Speaker of the Vanuatu Parliament MP Noris Kalmet and MP Jean Baptist.

From Australia, we had Mr. Robert Moelhoek, a Member of the Queensland Parliament, and The Hon. Stuart Robert, a (recently retired) Member of the Australian Parliament. Robert Ilatov, the co-chair of the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast, MK Tatiana Mazarsky and MK Ohad Tal represented Israel. In addition, we had delegates from Estonia, Fiji, Indonesia, Papua, New Zealand, the Philippines, Samoa, Switzerland, Taiwan, the United Kingdom, and the United States.

Deputy Prime Minister Gavoka shared how God had turned around the political situation in Fiji, after the opposition leader, former PM Sitiveni Rabuka prayed at the JPB Canberra in 2020, and promised to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

Not only did the Head of the Opposition become Prime Minister again, but recently the cabinet made the decision to open the Embassy in Israel.

Hi Saints – Don’t Miss Out on this Amazing Conference – Church and Cultural Challenges!!

MESSAGE FROM DANIEL SIMON, SOLICITOR HUMAN RIGHTS LAW ALLIANCE, A SPEAKER AT ABOVE CONFERENCE

The book of Romans tells us to “Live in harmony with one another… If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.”

For centuries we have understood that living in harmony with others means respecting their freedom to speak freely, express their opinions, and live according to their faith. But these hard-won freedoms should not be taken for granted. In Australia today Christians find themselves under increasing pressure to stay silent, to compromise on issues of faith, and to leave their beliefs at home or in the pew. It is increasingly difficult to be open about our faith in the workplace and to form faith-based communities, schools, and charities. But these freedoms are important for all Australians, not just Christians. We should desire a society in which these fundamental freedoms are valued, so we can be free to speak the truth in love and to “overcome evil with good”.

The law in Australia provides some protection for the fundamental human right of religious freedom. But as society becomes increasingly hostile to Christianity, the gaps in the law are being exposed and conflicting rights are being given priority. Freedom of religion is seen as an excuse for people of faith to discriminate against minorities. This is seen especially in the area of LGBT issues, and Christian schools are currently at the frontlines of public debate about conflicting rights and freedoms. The Human Rights Law Alliance helps to protect the rights of Christians and Christian organisations to stay faithful to Scripture and serve freely in their communities.

MESSAGE FROM DR GRAHAM MCLENNAN, FOUNDER NATIONAL ALLIANCE OF CHRISTIAN LEADERS & CHRISTIAN HERITAGE RESEARCH WEBSITE ETC. A SPEAKER AT ABOVE CONFERENCE

I will be sharing about Understanding our Christian  History with a presentation from the www.chr.org.au website which will include Individuals. Institutions, Documents and Events.
