Australia Betrays Israel at the United Nations

Norman & Barbara Miller 14 MAY 2024

On the eve of the 76th anniversary of the proclamation of the state of Israel on 14 May 1948, Australia has betrayed the only democracy in the Middle East at the recent United Nations vote on Palestine.

On Israel’s Day of Independence or National Day, it will be asking if it has any allies in the world. Prime Minister Netanyahu has said he will go it alone if he has to so that more October 7s, promised by Hamas, will not occur and Israel can survive as a nation as it faces the existential threat from Iran and its proxies. SEE MORE ON CANBERRA DECLARATION

Happy Mothers’ Day!!

We want to extend our blessings to all our wonderful readers. God bless you!!! And Happy Mothers Day to all the mothers, including spiritual mothers!!! As we have our service on Saturdays, we already celebrated Mother’s Day yesterday with a wonderful event at our church with worship, communion, an amazing meal with amazing decorations by Norman’s sisters – Colleen, Lilian, Deborah and Joanne. We even had Bible quizzes on mothers and crafts to add some fun to the occasion. Who said church is boring? Not around here!

Israel Events

April 25-26 – In 2023, Yom Haatzmaut (Israeli Independence Day) was from sundown on April 25 to sundown on April 26. The major State Ceremony took place on the eve of Yom Haatzmaut at Mount Herzl, Israel’s National Ceremony in Jerusalem. This event marked the end of Yom Hazikaron, Israel’s memorial day, commemorating their fallen.


May 7-28 – 21 Prayers for Israel and Isaiah 62 Fast led by Mike Bickle and the International House of Prayer Kansas City. It is estimated that 5 million Christians worldwide are praying for Israel at this time. The judicial crisis in Israel has caused great unrest and division as the government tries to find the right balance between the powers of judiciary and the legislature. Also, Israel is surrounded by hostile states. CLICK HERE to get the 21 prayers.

May 9 to current – Following the death by hunger strike in prison of a Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader, there have been over 1,000 rockets fired at Israeli citizens killing one woman and injuring others. David’s Sling, Israel’s defence system, is intercepting most missiles. Israel has counteracted by the targeted killing of 6 Palestinian Jihad terrorist leaders (Iran’s proxy). Unfortunately, as they use civilians as human shields, there has been some collateral damage, The ALP Australian government is planning to increase funding to the Palestinian Authority, so Australian taxpayers will be supporting terrorism whether they want to or not.

May 14 – Israel’s independence was declared on May 14, 1948 — the day when David ben Gurion officially read the Proclamation of the Establishment of the State of Israel.. Happy 75th birthday Israel.

May 15 – May 151948, the first day of Israeli Independence and exactly one year after United Nations Special Committee on Palestine (UNSCOP) was established,Arab armies invaded Israel and the first Arab-Israeli war began. The fledgling Israel state managed to miraculously win and Arabs have called this Nakba Day. The United Nations will stage a high-level special meeting to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the Nakba – the mass displacement of around 750,000 Palestinians from their homeland in 1948. Many forget that the same number of Jews were displaced from Arab lands at the same time. However, Israel gave them a home while the Arab nations rejected the Palestinians to keep the war going.


Prophetic Word & Decree – Hear the Call of the Voice of the Lord and the Call to Gather in Canberra by Ps Norman Miller

Made on 1 April – A prophetic call to gather in Canberra 27-29 July at Lifestream Church for the Church and Cultural Challenges Conference hosted by the Centre for International Reconciliation and Peace and the Tabernacle of David Cairns. It is a call to deep intercession, the harp and bowl ministry and to bring a cultural shift in our nation to Biblical values. Sound the shofar and hear the roar of the Lion of the tribe of Judah. See more on

www.reconciliationandpeace.org/events

Don’t miss this amazing conference 27-29 July at Lifestream Christian Fellowship, 152 Langdon Ave, Wanniassa, Canberra. Speakers are Cindy McGarvie, National Director Youth for Christ, Dr Graham McLennan, founder National Alliance of Christian Leaders, Ps Peter Walker, founder Australian Indigenous Christian Ministries, David Jack, an arts and media expert, and by video, former Senator Amanda Stoker. We will start with 4 hours of worship as we seek the Lord for His purposes in strategic prayer for our nation. There is a strong effort to remove the church from the public square and impose worldly values on the church restricting our religious freedom. 

We have issues of political correctness, identity politics, and much more. Come and help bring a shift to our nation. Gal 3:28 says:
There is no longer Jew or Greek, there is no longer slave or free, there is no longer male and female; for all of you are one in Christ Jesus.

Enormous cultural changes challenge our Christian faith. We need strategic prayer, worship, and to give a reason for our faith 1 Peter 3:15. We need the anointing of Isaachar to know the times and seasons and what Israel and the church should do.

We have a prayer group for the conference with Christians from around Australia fortnightly by zoom and amazing revelation is coming forth. 

You can register for the conference on Eventbrite and early bird regos expire on 12 June – bit.ly/440qyGA

People Pleasers or God Pleasers: the Church and Cultural Challenges by Ps Barbara Miller

Left – Interim Truth-Telling and Treaty Board (ITTB) – Ray Rosendale, Cheryl Buchanan, Aaron Fa’aoso, and Dr Sallyanne Atkinson, Cairns 9.5.23,  Right – Barbara Miller and Cheryl Buchanan, Co-chair ITTB Cairns 9.5.23

PATH TO TREATY

Path to Treaty legislation passed in Cairns as the Qld Parliament met in Cairns 9-11 May. It will establish a Truth-Telling and Healing Inquiry and a Treaty Institute. Barbara wrote an article for The Spectator which came out today 13 May though it was written the previous week.

Norman and Barbara and other Miller family members and community leaders were invited to a breakfast with the Premier, MPs and the ITTB on 11 May to commemorate the passing of the legislation. 

Traditional owner, Seith Fourmile, called out Barbara Miller and a few other key workers for Indigenous advancement including Norman’s father and mother. Co-chair of the ITTB, Cheryl Buchanan, singled out Barbara for having worked as long as Cheryl had – 53 years – for Indigenous advancement. At an earlier ITTB workshop on 9 May, Seith honoured Barbara and Norman, and Cheryl honoured Barbara remembering her as the “young Christian girl” who had stood with them at the tent embassy in Canberra in 1971.

VOICE REFERENDUM

Hardly surprising that The Weekend Australian May 13-14 said on its front page, “Australians will be asked to vote for an Indigenous voice to Parliament and executive government after a Labor-dominated parliamentary committee endorsed Anthony Albanese’s proposed constitutional amendment without change, deepening the political battle over the referendum process. 

The Liberals and Nationals – who made up less than a third of the committee members – issued dissenting reports on Friday attacking as insufficient the six-week timeframe given to the inquiry.” They said there should have been a constitutional convention to iron out drafting issues.

Former Prime Minister, Tony Abbott was denied the opportunity to make a verbal submission to the Inquiry until he went to the media and they relented and gave him a grilling over his opposition to the Voice. Ps Norman Miller was similarly denied a hearing though he put his name down to speak before the inquiry hearing in Cairns and waited all day to give evidence. Instead, he put in a written submission which should be publicly available along with all the others. As we know, there have been many legal opinions for and against the Voice with disagreement in the legal fraternity. 

Pastors Norman and Barbara were interviewed by Vision Christian Radio on the Voice as Christians are wanting some leadership and advice on this issue. A Canberra intercessor said that 1 Way fm Christian radio in Canberra also covered their interview.

It is unhelpful that one of the Aboriginal designers of the Voice, Marcia Langton, publicly said on there could be an intifada in the western desert of Australia if a yes vote for the referendum did not succeed. (The Australian 3 May). Dr David Adler President of the Australian Jewish Association told Sky News 14 May that antifada is an Arab word and means race-based terrorism. 

This is not what we want to see in Australia. There is a debate about whether the Voice would further or set back the cause of reconciliation between First Nations people and the rest of Australia.

RECONCILIATION NEWZ BUZZ April 2022

Hi all. We bless you in the name of the Lord. We are in the midst of a national election campaign in Australia and continue to pray for Godly government. We have been blessed with a Christian Prime Minister who said he won by a miracle last election and he needs another miracle. He has been the brunt of a character assassination campaign despite being of good character. Australia has handled the pandemic and the economic fallout because of it better than most nations. However big money is bankrolling so-called independents against government seats campaigning for stronger climate change policies. They hope to get a hung parliament so they can call the shots, having the balance of power.

We have had devastating floods on the east coast of Australia and the heart-rending war in Ukraine continues with rising antisemitism in many countries. Just as the heroes of the Bible interceded to God, we do today in this generation. We praise the Lord that He is in control. After all, history is His story.

OPEN HEAVEN
 by Ps Norman Miller, Tabernacle of David Cairns

Happy Mothers Day to mothers and spiritual mothers. Your children rise up and call you blessed and so does your husband and extended family. Prov 31.

Norman and Barbara will be sharing on Pentecost Sunday 5 June at 9.30am AEST at Ps Jack Yeo’s church, Emmanuel Blessings in Sydney by zoom so if you want to attend, please contact us for details

Facing Challenges with Mountain-Moving Faith 
by Ps Barbara Miller 30.4.22

Book launch – Norman and Barbara are co-authors of a book called Keys to Australia’s Destiny by Jill Curry et al.

Keys to Australia’s Destiny will be launched Saturday, May 14 at 2.30pm AEST on zoom link: https://zoom.us/j/187673252 Meeting 187 673 252 (No password, just a waiting room). Jill Curry is the editor and publisher and is coordinating with Nel and Kym Farnik who have an Israeli support ministry called ‘Celebrate Israel’.

Jill says, “May 14 is a significant day for both Australia and Israel.  It was not only the day Israel was born in 1948 (on the Western calendar) but also the day that de Quiros made his proclamation in 1606 regarding the ‘Southlands of the Holy Spirit’ from Vanuatu over all the lands south to the pole. This is referred to by numerous writers in the book.  Both of these events are keys to Australia’s destiny so please join us.

Keys to Australia’s Destiny is a compilation of articles by 24 Christian leaders sharing what they believe is God’s destiny for Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific region and how we can see this fulfilled. I believe it will be a strategic book to focus the church on what our apostles, prophets, evangelists, teachers and preachers perceive God is saying now and give impetus to intercessors as to what and how to pray for our countries to come into their destiny in God. You will be able to order through the Gifts for the King website.”
