SHOFAR, MENORAHS & 2 SILVER TRUMPETS

We praise the Lord for His many blessings. Norman and Thomas blow the shofar before every service we have on Saturdays and Thomas with either Judy or Debbii blow the 2 silver trumpets on special occasions. The Hannukah menorah is not on this table but 2 other menorahs are, along with a conch shell, and a small ark of the covenant is behind the grapes. There is also a white crown just behind the candle holder. This table was not set up in any particular way and I couldn’t resist taking a photo with my phone as I walked past it. So much here precious to us and the Lord. There is also a 25 there which lights up. We used it to celebrate 25 years of ministry last year.

Right – Ps Norman and Barbara Miller walking down the 199 steps to the sea at Whitby, the home of Capt Cook who charted the east coast of Australia and claimed it for Britain.

HEALING THE COMMONWEALTH

You may remember that at the Healing the Commonwealth prayer event on 27.6.22, prayer leaders from Britain and the Commonwealth nations joined together in a time of fresh repentance and forgiveness for how the UK treated commonwealth nations. Norman was asked, along with other nations, to share testimonies of past reconciliation events between Britain and Australia that we have been involved with since 1997. All continents were represented in the 27.6.22 event. Brian Pickering of the Australian Prayer Network lead the 1999 Reconciliation Tour of England by the Australian team and spoke before Norman. Norman and Barbara were part of the team that went to England in 1999. Before that, they hosted an international conference on reconciliation in Cairns, Australia in 1998 at which Brian and the British team, led by Brian Mills, spoke. The Millers were also involved in the 2 Chron 7:14 prayer event led by Ps Ben Gray and Brian Pickering in Uluru in 1999.

An anointed follow-up event called Blessing the Commonwealth was held by the World Prayer Centre in Birmingham, England before the Commonwealth Games which is currently being held there. We could not be there but joined with Malaysian and Indonesian pastors and intercessors the same day.

Praying for Revival in Borneo & Releasing Healing from the Commonwealth over Malaysia by Pastors Norman & Barbara Miller. The Millers were invited to  join Malaysian and Indonesian Christians and lead a session 16.7.22. Norman is Aboriginal Australian but has some Malay heritage.

Do you need to be carried by the Lord through a difficult situation? Then this video is for you. In fact, It’s two messages in one, because Ps Norman Miller goes on to talk about the theme for National Aboriginal and Islanders Week and discusses scripture in reference to it.

Carried by the Lord and NAIDOC by Ps Norman Miller

Left – Norman and a friend at the recent NAIDOC march in Cairns where Norman is carrying a shield he made especially honouring William Cooper, the originator of NAIDOC and the timeline of major developments in its naming and celebration. He also carried a giant boomerang supporting the Uluru statement from the heart of Voice, Treaty and Truth. If you want to know more about that, check out Barbara’s books here.

Right, 2012 – Kevin Russell and Uncle Boydie (William Cooper’s family) and Norman Miller leading a march from William Cooper’s old home in Footscray to the Melbourne CBD where the German consulate was in 1938. It was a re-enactment of the protest by William Cooper and the Australian Aborigines’ League re Kristallnacht, the start of the Holocaust. Abe Schwarz, the Melbourne Holocaust Museum and Barbara Miller organised the event. It coincided with the launch of Barbara’s book called Wiliam Cooper, Gentle Warrior.

William Cooper

Aboriginal Christian leader, William Cooper is the father of NAIDOC, initiating it on 28 January 1940 as an annual Aboriginal Sunday supported by the churches.

Fifteen years later, in 1955, the date changed to the first Sunday in July and became known as National Aborigines Day. In 1957, the National Aborigines Day Observance Committee (NADOC) was formed whose goal was to promote awareness of Aboriginal people, their cultures and their plight. In 1989, the title changed to NAIDOC Week to include Torres Strait Islanders in the national celebrations. So, we owe it to William Cooper who got the ball rolling.

decrees dangerous prayers book promo

You can change the history of nations, shift atmospheres. You can command barriers to come down. Doors to open. Hopeless situations to shift.

God wants you to partner with Him to establish His will. Yet, prayers of petition will sometimes not be enough. Instead, it is more powerful to decree from your position in heavenly places with Jesus Christ. To do that, you first must spend time with God and listen to His heart. Decree from the Father’s heart, not vain imagination.

In light of the tectonic shifts happening in the world today, international speaker and author Pastor Barbara Miller, an ordained prophet – believes now more than ever – the world is in dire need of more carriers of our Father’s power.

Hence, she took her decades of ministry experience and shaped them into a short, comprehensive how-to manual on writing decrees. To make sure any Christian can apply this process, she broke it down into 7 simple steps.

Before learning to write decrees, you may have felt disappointed, inadequate, ill-equipped or unsure of a way forward. After you learn to write effective decrees, you will feel on top of things, clear-headed, motivated and happy you can help to effect change. It will improve your sense of social responsibility and effectiveness.

Decrees and Dangerous Prayers will give you the motivation and steps you need to:

  • Pray and make daring decrees that can change the spiritual atmosphere
  • Make dangerous decrees and prayers that transform your city or nation
  • Have your faith increased as you see the results and feel empowered

STREET MUSIC AND BREAD MINISTRY – REVIVAL IS COMING

Norman has been worshipping on the Cairns Esplanade now 3 nights a week for 5 years and has seen people renew their faith, dance in the streets, pour out wine or throw away packets of cigarettes. God is impacting the city of Cairns and tourists through this ministry. Videos of him singing are being shared around the world and touching unknown lives. The bread ministry continues to bless the needy as well. 

Norman is also an Aboriginal artist and is donating a large painting to Rosie’s Friends on the Street who feed the homeless. They are fundraising for a new van. His father Barclay had a great heart for the homeless and would receive calls in the middle of the night from homeless people who needed food or blankets and he would always get up and help out from his own cupboard. Norman has a similar heart so if you want to help please contact Norman on 0407128199.

Russian Invasion of Ukraine – Urgent Prayer Needed!!!

By Barbara Miller

A number of commentators are comparing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine with Hitler’s invasion of European countries in World War 11 and wondering how far Putin will go to re-establish the USSR. People are also asking is the west having its Neville Chamberlain moment of appeasement?

You can support the people of Ukraine by donating to Christians For Israel who are sending food parcels and emergency shelter – https://c4israel.com.au. For readers outside Australia, go to your local networks who are helping Ukraine.

Poland was not part of USSR, as was Ukraine till 1991, but Poland will have bad memories of how it was treated by the Russians during and after World War 11. Surprisingly, perhaps, my book If I Survive covers some of that story. The reason for this is that I needed to piece together the information from Lena Goldstein, whose story it is, by doing a lot of background research to put it in context. So I will include some extracts here:

Excerpt of horrific story from If I Survive

The Nazis fought their way into Warsaw. Dead bodies were everywhere. They closed the schools, shut down the newspapers and concerts. The people loved music, but the city fell silent.

The Siege of Warsaw by the Germans began on 1 September 1939, one week after the signing of the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact, while the Soviet invasion of Poland commenced on 17 September. The Polish Warsaw Army (Armia Warszawa) defended Warsaw, the capital of Poland, as substantial aerial bombardments by the Luftwaffe rained down.

———————–

To offer what support she could (to her brothers who were sent to the east to fight), Lena went undercover as an actress with a troop of actors who happened to be going to Brest. She says:

“We were already on the Russian side, and people were coming back from the Russian side, saying, ‘Go back, go back because they’re killing people,’ especially Jews because they know the Jews are escaping from the Germans. They’re killing Jews because they know that everybody is selling all that they possess to run away from the Germans to the Russian side. It was dangerous.”

———————–

Lena’s sister Fela and her husband did not want to accept Russian citizenship. They were Polish citizens, and they wanted to go back to Poland. Angered, the Russians sent them to Siberia instead, as punishment. Russia had already been sent many dissidents to this remote place. Lena longed to find her sister, hold her in her arms, share sisterly stories, even to know she was alive and not suffering. But there was no word from her. It was as if a chapter of her life had closed.

———————–

(Because of the Warsaw Uprising Aug-Oct 1944 led by the Polish home army or resistance timed for the retreat of the Germans and advance of the Soviets) The Germans reduced Warsaw to smoking ruins, the skeletons of burnt blocks of apartments surrounded by rubble and destroyed bridges sunk into the river. It was like a ghost town.

The Soviets paid the highest price to defeat the Nazis in Europe, losing more than 26 million troops, so the Allies didn’t want to upset them, and this accounted for their low-level support for their ally Poland. This lack of support was despite the fact that Polish pilots helped win the Battle of Britain in 1940, 115,000 Poles fought in Italy under British command, and after D-Day Poles fought on the western front. They also fought for Britain in the Middle East.

Tehran Conference

The Tehran Conference sealed the fate of Poland. It was a meeting between US President Franklin D. Roosevelt, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, and Soviet Premier Joseph Stalin in Tehran, Iran, between 28 November and 1 December 1943. It is reported that:
Stalin pressed for a revision of Poland’s eastern border with the Soviet Union to match the line set by British Foreign Secretary Lord Curzon in 1920. To compensate Poland for the resulting loss of territory, the three leaders agreed to move the German–Polish border to the Oder and Neisse rivers. This decision was not formally ratified, however, until the Potsdam Conference of 1945. (Office of the Historian n.d.)
It seems the president of the Polish government-in-exile, Władysław Raczkiewicz, was not aware of this. Also, the Americans were keen to get Soviet support for the war against Japan. At the Yalta conference between the Americans, British and Soviets from 4 to 11 February 1945, the Allies withdrew support for the Polish government-in-exile and Poland was allowed to become a Soviet satellite. Other decisions were made that enabled a Soviet sphere of influence in Europe that led to the Cold War. Stalin said:
For the Russian people, the question of Poland is not only a question of honor but also a question of security. Throughout history, Poland has been the corridor through which the enemy has passed into Russia. Poland is a question of life and death for Russia. (The Latin Library n.d.)
After the war, Poland became a communist state and remained so until 1989. One occupying force was replaced by another. The Soviets persecuted the soldiers of the Home Army and the resistance fighters of the Warsaw Uprising as being anti-Soviet. Instead of being honoured as brave fighters, they were maligned. A monument to the Home Army was not built until 1989 when the Soviets lost control of Poland. Instead, the Soviet-backed People’s Army was glorified. the People’s Commissariat for Internal Affairs (NKVD), Stalin’s secret police, or the Office of Security (UB), the Polish political police, captured many Home Army fighters, eradicating opposition to post-war communist Poland. The UB operated from 1945 to 1954. They imprisoned the soldiers on charges such as fascism and sent many to Gulags. However, memories of the uprising and lack of Soviet support for them motivated the Polish labour movement, Solidarity, which led to peaceful opposition against the Polish communist government in the 1980s.
In Poland now, 1 August is a celebrated anniversary. On the fiftieth anniversary of the (Warsaw) uprising, in 1994, Poland held a ceremony and invited the German and Russian presidents. Russian President Boris Yeltsin didn’t attend but German President Roman Herzog visited and was the first German statesman to apologise for German atrocities against Poland during the uprising. “

KEEPING FAITH AND HOPE IN UNCERTAIN TIMES
by Ps Barbara Miller.
Message for Ps Jack Yeo & Emmanuel Blessings Christian Centre Sydney for their 20th birthday from Ps N & B Miller
Amazing that the blazing torch Barbara saw was mentioned in the scripture Norman got of Isaiah 62. This is confirmation.
Norman – 5 years busking Christian songs on the CaIrns Esplanade, changing the atmosphere over the city and touching lives. He does this about 3 nights a week. Some people dance with joy. Others are in tears as their faith is stirred or they reconsider having walked away from the Lord. Children are loving it. Homeless people often pour out their alcohol or give up their tobacco. We praise the Lord for a heart of worship and a heart for the lost and to touch this city.

DECLARATION ON EVE OF ROSH HASHANAH 5782 SUPPORTING ISRAEL

The International Coalition for Israel and the European Coalition for Israel plan to honour Israel on the eve of Rosh HaShanah 5782 on 5 September with a 6-hour live-streamed event where Christian and Jewish communities around the world will contribute short pre-recorded segments which include a declaration of support for Israel.

It is also a response to the 20th anniversary of the Durban conference that originated the Boycott, Divest and Sanction (BDS) movement and put out false propaganda that Israel is a racist and apartheid state responsible for crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing. It demanded the re-institution of the UN resolution equating Zionism with racism. Ignoring all the instances of racism around the world, it focused on Israel in an anti-Semitic tirade. Unfortunately, the World Council of Churches supported it.

We are honoured to participate in this event. We honour Dr George Annadorai’s part in this as well.

AFGHANISTAN VISION 28.8.21

By Ps Barbara Miller

I was in church praying for revival at our prayer meeting before our Saturday service. I had a vision of Afghanistan and the people trying to get on planes to flee. Then I sensed that this was a picture of the end times of people wanting to escape hell with Afghanistan being like hell on earth. Many people got to the airport too late or couldn’t get there because of obstructions or enemy fire. Some died in the process and some were left behind.

One day there will be a frantic rush to be saved into the kingdom of God before it is too late. In one sense it will be like a revival with people desperate to get to heaven. But some will wait too long and some will be prevented by the enemy of our souls. Some will be left behind because they choose to stay, that is, not to be saved, and some will be too late in their attempt.

We need to earnestly pray that the church will not be too slow to help rescue these people as the Allied forces were with helping people get out of Afghanistan. The Allied forces tried valiantly in the end but needed to have the foresight to plan the rescue operation better, earlier and more strategically. It is time for the church to strategize afresh for the Great Commission and our heavenly rescue operation.

PRAYER PROPHECIES AND DECREES FOR MALAYSIA
By Ps Norman Miller
Part of a 24.7 worship event led by Malaysian Christians. Ps Norman is First Nations Australian but has Malay heritage so was invited to participate. He was blessed to take part in the wonderful worship. 7am 7.7.21

This photo is a screenshot from National Indigenous TV (NITV) when Munganbana Norman joined the National Aborigines and Islanders Week (NAIDOC) parade and held up a large hand declaring “No Euthanasia” and a giant boomerang he made with “Voice Treaty Truth,” a cry of many Indigneous Australians. As well as being a pastor, he is an artist – https://www.munganbana.com.au/

The state of Queensland is debating Voluntary Assisted Dying (VAD) in parliament next week and there are grave concerns it will pass because the ALP government is pushing it. There are no protections for faith-based health services and doctors and Catholic hospitals say they will refuse to cooperate. Please pray. Norman has done interviews with Cairns ABC and a number of newspapers. He founded the Voice of First Nations Peoples Against Euthanasia some months ago. Contact him if you want to support this.

Passover with Cairns Jewish Community 27.3.21
Passover message by Ps Barbara Miller on 27.3.21 at our service before joining the Jewish community. We have been celebrating Passover (Pesach) for nearly 25 years now. Last year we hosted the Passover Service or Pesach Seder by zoom and many joined us from around Australia. Please excuse the background noise made by our fans.

VISION BY BARBARA 18.3.21 AT GAP PRAYER MEETING GATHERING APOSTOLIC PROPHETIC NETWORK Ezek 22:30

Our GAP Network has been earnestly praying for our nation and its government as all the issues in Australian society re the treatment of women have been weaponised by the Opposition and the media against our Christian Prime Minister who himself is a family man of good character. Please keep him and his family in prayer and if you want to contact us re the prayers and decrees we have been using to use them yourself, please do.

VISION

I sense that we are at a real tipping point in our nation and the scales could go one way or the other. We really are at a time of crisis in our nation. I was seeing a precipice like our nation was on the precipice. It is a very precarious position. Our prayers are critical so please pray earnestly.

PART OF DECREE

I decree a divine reversal of all legislation and policies of all governments, and policies of all businesses and institutions in Australia that are anti-Christian including those relating to abortion, euthanasia and anti-family values. I decree reversal to the mindsets and hearts of those who develop and maintain anti-Godly legislation and policies in Australia. I decree reversal to the spirits behind this legislation and these policies.

I agree with scripture and say “the Lord rebuke you” (Jude 1:9)

I decree Jeremiah 1:10 over Australia that as His spiritual government, we will fulfil His word – “See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant.” I decree that those who oppose You Lord in Australia who are in positions of influence in any sphere will have the opportunity to repent and reverse course or be removed. I decree they will be replaced by those who will build and plant into Australia a love for You, revival and transformation.

Speak God’s Word Into Your House by Ps Norman Miller 13.2.21

This boomerang that Norman made and presented to Parliament on 27.11.13 2013 with about 360 signatures on the back asking for constitutional change is now housed in the Museum of Australian Democracy in Canberra (the old Parliament House) after being donated by Norman. In this photo, he presented it to Warren Entsch MP, Bronwyn Bishop, then Speaker of the House, Ken Wyatt MP and now Minister for Indigenous Australians. Norman was campaigning for removal of racism from the Australian constitution as well as constitutional recognition. The Uluru statement for “voice treaty truth” is a good one but it has yet to be implemented and there is disagreement between Indigenous people as to whether the voice should be legislated or enshrined in the constitution. The issue of removing racism from the constitution appears to have lost momentum with the emphasis on the voice. Please keep these issues in prayer.

Purim, the Feast of Esther 2.3.21

AUSTRALIA DAY PRAYER FOR INDIGENOUS LEADERS

As well as having Indigenous people from the various states praying for our nation, Norman prayed for Indigenous leaders.

Norman prayed for a double portion anointing to come on Indigenous leaders. He also shared in summary, “Ps 118:24 This is the day that the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it. We were born for such a time as this. Can a nation be born again in a day? Isa 66. Yes, Israel was and so now is Australia. We are going to have an Awakening. The Lord also spoke to me out of Ex 20:20 where Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.” And we have had a year of testing with covid-19.

I believe the next 7 years are critical for our nation 2021-2028. Israel will turn 80 in 2028. Moses was 80 years old when he confronted Pharaoh. We need to free the 7 mountains from the spirit of Pharaoh and Babylon. First Nations people need to align with the Lion of the tribe of Judah who is roaring. We have not sold our birthright. The 7 mountains also need to be delivered from the spirit of Edom and Esau. Obadiah 1:21 says “Deliverers will go up on Mount Zion to govern the mountains of Esau. And the kingdom will be the LORD’s.”

Australia Day Prayer 26.1.21

Welcome to the new year!
Isa 43:18-19
“Remember not the former things,
    nor consider the things of old.
Behold, I am doing a new thing;
    now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
    and rivers in the desert.

2020 may have been a difficult year for you but God is purifying us so our light can shine. We have been privileged to host an Australia Day Prayer event by zoom on 26 January. It is a controversial day on our calendar with some celebrating and Aboriginal people reminded of colonisation and the pain that came with it. So, for Norman, as an Aboriginal, to host it is significant and we have done so a number of times over the years, the last 2 years in Canberra. This time was by zoom because of covid-19. The Lord has given him Genesis 26 about re-digging the wells as Genesis is the first book of the Bible and January is the first month of the year. So, we don’t want esek (disputes) or sitnah (hatred). We want rehoboth (open space) to live together in peace.

We believe we experienced a shift over our nation on Australia Day by the grace of God. We were blessed by prayers by video from the Hon. Senator Eric Abetz, the Hon. Senator Amanda Stoker and audio by Rev the Hon. Fred Nile MLC NSW Parliament. National Prayer leaders Brian Pickering, National Coordinator, Australian Prayer Network and Ps Warwick Marsh, National Coordinator, National Day of Prayer & Fasting & Canberra Declaration joined us live to pray.

A large number of enthusiastic pastors and intercessors prayed through the day. We had 2 beautiful worship segments, one led by Glen Sebasio of Tabernacle of David Canberra and one led by Tabernacle of David Cairns, the latter with original songs especially for Australia Day.

After the introductions by parliamentarians and national prayer leaders, we had a session where First Nations leaders from each state prayed for Australia. Ps Norman and Ps Barbara both shared stirring prophetic messages. Norman’s was focused on reconciliation – https://youtu.be/lJ62CuLsGLc and Barbara’s was on foundations, including our constitution – https://youtu.be/4xpdb9WTSQI.

We also had a session praying for the seven mountains of cultural influence/spheres – family, government, media, education, economy, religion and celebration/arts with different people appointed to pray for each mountain. Rev 11:15, NIV: “The seventh angel sounded his trumpet, and there were loud voices in heaven, which said: ‘The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of his Messiah, and he will reign for ever and ever.'” Until then, we are called to be salt and light and a godly influence on our society. Mat 5:13-16 ESV 

The last session was praying for Australia as a Nation of Refuge and a blessing to Israel & the Nations (Heb 13:1-2, Lev 19:34, Gen 12:3) with different ethnic groups leading prayer. Australia has a redemptive gift of being a nation of refuge.

We thank the Lord that Ps Irwin Ross and Glen Sebasio, leaders of the Tabernacle of David in Canberra were able to join us on zoom with their congregation and that Ps Ross and Bronwyn Poulton were able to join us on zoom with a group from the Healing Rooms in Nowra.

Barbara released a decree “I decree that the captives who are under the spell of the dragon and the spirit of communism and the leviathan spirit and rainbow serpent will be set free all over Australia and the Asia Pacific and I release the angels of the Lord to accomplish this. I decree all vestiges of the Bamboo Curtin come down and all walls and rulers protecting the enemies of God to crumble. I decree that the people of Australia and Asia Pacific will achieve their God-given destiny and redemptive purpose.”

US Elections

I (Barbara) went out on a limb on 26.11.20 and released what the Lord put on my heart about the deception that Trump would serve a second consecutive term. WhatsApp groups were furiously reposting what they received from well-known prophets and prayer leaders from the USA and internationally. They were also reposting with gusto and passion about conspiracy theories from alternative media outlets.

The Lord was on my case that this was wrong and that even a lying spirit had been put in the mouth of the prophets. I kept praying, reluctant to release it because who was I and I didn’t want to touch the Lord’s anointed. However, the Lord kept disturbing my sleep and warned me of my and Norman’s responsibility as the leader of prayer networks.  Ezekiel was warned that blood would be on his hands if he didn’t warn when called to. (Ezekiel 3:18). So I released 2 messages and Norman also released one. They are below:

We are meant to use our discernment re prophecies and re media reports etc. Please ponder these scriptures and check out the messages below. We need to be careful not to add to deception by spreading it.

1 John 4:1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

Mat 24:4-13. V4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

2 Tim 4:3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but having itching ears, they shall heap to themselves teachers in accordance with their own lusts.

1 Pe 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?Lying spirit in the mouth of the prophets? Ps Barbara Miller shares 26.11.20 – https://youtu.be/WzOC7Nrd1bA

HAMAN-LIKE SPIRIT THREATENED WITH OWN GALLOWS IN BEIRUT

As soon as I (Barbara Miller) heard on Wednesday about the tragedy in Beirut, I sensed the Lord was showing me that it was a situation similar to Haman’s gallows. I shared that on a number of WhatsApp groups straight away. In the time of Queen Esther, Haman tried to trick the King of Persia (ancient Iran) into killing all the Jews in the vast empire of King Xerxes or Ahasuerus, virtually the then known world – from India to Ethiopia. The plot was exposed by Esther and her uncle Mordecai who were Jews and the genocide was stopped by another decree that reversed the effect of the first decree. The King ordered Haman hung on the gallows he had constructed himself to kill Modecai. Haman was a Persian/Iranian citizen but he was descended from Agag, King of the Amalekites, traditional enemies of Israel. Amalek was the grandson of Esau, the ancestor of the Edomites.

The Iranian-controlled terrorist group Hezbollah controls the port in Beirut where the ammonium nitrate that exploded was stored. It can be used for fertilizer or explosives. It is known that Hezbollah has weapons stored at the Beirut port to attack Israel with more than a hundred thousand missiles. This appears to be a case where Hezbollah’s plan to kill Jews in Israel has backfired upon them, tragically killing innocent civilians in the process. Another plot from Iran to kill Jews has been foiled.

This seems to be confirmed by media reports on Sunday that the people have built a mock gallows on which they performed a mock hanging of Hezbollah leader, Hassan Nasrallah & former prime minister Saad Hariri. A number of key intercessors have confirmed what the Lord showed me. It is important however that we have compassion for the injured and those who have lost their loved ones, Christians and others, and that we pray for reform, repentance and salvation in Lebanon and terrorism to end. There are urgent needs for food, medical aid and housing. Lebanon was already in financial and Covid-19 crisis before the blast and the blast has destroyed silos of wheat containing 85% of Lebanon’s food. Jonah was chastised by the Lord when he complained that the Lord spared Nineveh, the enemy of Israel, when they repented.

INDIGENOUS FRIENDS OF ISRAEL SUPPORTS ISRAEL EXTENDING  SOVEREIGNTY IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA

The Centre for International Reconciliation and Peace has a number of ministries under its umbrella and Indigenous Friends of Israel (IFI) is one of them. Formed in 2017, Ps Norman Miller said “It is simply untrue to maintain that Israel is an apartheid state. As Indigenous people, we know what apartheid is. Israel is a beacon of democracy in the Middle East and has Arab Members of the Knesset and has Arabs living peacefully and working in all walks of life enjoying their democratic freedoms.” 

IFI was formed in July 2017 to counter Bob Carr’s anti-Israel comments and to maintain Australia’s bipartisan support for Israel. https://www.jwire.com.au/indigenous-friends-of-israel/

Norman and Barbara were blessed to share on Indigenous Friends of Israel at a Shalom Israel event in Melbourne in 2018 where the Christian and Jewish community came together at the Beth Weizmann Centre.

In July 2020, IFI, our Centre (CFIRP) and Tabernacle of David joined with Australia’s ICEJ and many other pro-Israel organisations to write a letter to Australia’s Foreign Minister, Marise Payne, to support the proposed extension by Israel of its sovereignty over Judea and Samaria as designated by the Trump Peace Plan called “Peace to Prosperity: A Vision to Improve the Lives of the Palestinian and Israeli People.” The letter added supporting international legal documents.

We were blessed to have Mr Albert Veksler of the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast as a guest speaker at one of our Tabernacle of David Asia Pacific Prayer meetings that we host and he shared on this issue.

Barbara spoke to our Tabernacle of David Cairns on Judea and Samaria in the following video. One correction- at the end I shared I had a revelation in 2017 that the replacement theology of the church had opened the door for the supersessionism of Islam but I said Israel instead of Islam.

GATHERING APOSTOLIC PROPHETIC NETWORK (GAP)

A number of years ago, Barbara after a conference we hosted in Parliament House Canberra where we built a throne for the Lord, Barbara saw a vision of a crown over Parliament House and David Jack made this beautiful image.

At the start of 2019, we formed a spiritual government ministry praying for the Australian government, weekly then fortnightly praying by zoom. Called GAP based on Ezekiel 22:30 where the Lord looked for someone to stand in the gap for Israel so He would not have to destroy it for its sin, we appointed pastors and intercessors to federal government portfolios. They hear from the Lord and research current events to pray for these portfolios and the ministers responsible on a daily basis. This has greatly influenced government policy along the lines of maintaining our Judeo-Christian heritage. Our primary scripture is Isaiah 9:6-7 and we proclaim the government of Australia is on the shoulders of Jesus or Yeshua.

TABERNACLE OF DAVID ASIA PACIFIC PRAYER NETWORK

Norman and Barbara initiated the Tabernacle of David Asia Pacific Prayer Network (TODAPP) on Erev Shavuot with a trumpet blast and we have been blessed by the participation of pastors and intercessors from most nations in Asia and some in the Pacific. We meet on a fortnighly basis by zoom and have a WhatsApp group for prayer in between. 

As well as having people from the actual nations leading prayer for their nations, we have a guest speaker each time as well and we have been very blessed to hear from Rev Dr George Annadorai from Singapore (pictured) on a couple of occasions. As we have a focus on Israel and the Isaiah 19 highway, we have prayer leaders from these nations as guest speakers and regular members. We were blessed to have Ps Shlomy and Miriam Abramov from Rishon LeZion Israel, Mr Ablert Vesksler from the Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast and our next guest speaker is Adel, an Egyptian Australian who regularly prays with us. Ps Jack Yeo from Emmanuel Blessings Centre in Sydney has been a wonderful support as has Judy Chiem.

BLACK LIVES MATTER
& ALL LIVES MATTER

By Barbara Miller

Norman made the point that yes, black lives matter but also all lives matter and he stood outside his art gallery with placards in the shape of hands saying “stop youth suicide” and “stop abortion.” He could have added stop domestic violence. He had signs saying John 3:16 and Ps 91 and he added “all live smatter to it.”
 In answer to a question from an intercessor of how to stop a Black Lives Matter march in Sydney because of Covid-19 and other concerns, I gave an unusual answer. My answer was to use a strategy from the Lord around Balaam’s donkey. To start with, there are genuine grievances and pain and a genuine call for justice around the Black Lives Matter movement in the USA and Australia that I support. However, there are ungodly forces that have attached to the Black Lives Matter movement in the US – anarchism, Marxism, Islamist ideology and even traditional African spirituality e.g. invoking warrior ancestor spirits to help them. Some churches and synagogues in the US have been destroyed.

The Aboriginal Lives Matter movement in Australia which has become Black Lives Matter is different but with Marxist influences. My heart goes out to the family of David Dungay and others who have tragically lost their lives in custody.

In December 2015, Dungay’s heart gave way in Long Bay prison hospital under the weight of five prison guards. His last words were “I can’t breathe.” Ironically, they were preventing him from eating biscuits because he was diabetic and when he resisted, he was forcibly given a sedative. The 26-year-old Aboriginal is now being portrayed as Australia’s George Floyd. His family is distraught because the coroner did not find the prison officers guilty and want an inquiry which is understandable.

In 1983, John Pat, a 16-year-old Aboriginal boy, was beaten to death by four off-duty police officers in Karratha, Western Australia. The policemen were acquitted by an all-white jury of manslaughter, on the grounds of self-defence. His death and others led to the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody which was presented with cases of police brutality to Aboriginals.

I was asked by the Queensland Commissioner, Lou Wyvill, to write a submission to the Inquiry on behalf of the Aboriginal Coordinating Council (ACC) of which I was CEO. ACC represented the land-based Aboriginal local government councils in Qld. I wrote a 100-page report in 1990.
 Surprisingly, the royal commission found Indigenous people weren’t dying in custody at a higher rate than others. This is still the same situation today. They were over-represented in jail, but not in deaths in custody. Nevertheless, the implementation of the recommendations needs to be revisited and a fresh commitment made to enforce them. The Australian Law Reform Commission (2018) wrote, “Although Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander adults make up around 2% of the national population, they constitute 27% of the national prison population.”
The Australian reported on 15.6.20 “The Australian Institute of Criminology, in a paper by Jenny Mouzos, says that from 1989 until 2000,

CLOSING THE GAP

By Barbara Miller

The Closing the Gap initiative was set up by then Prime Minister Kevin Rudd after the 2008 Apology re the stolen generations of children. The Apology was a watershed moment in Australian history with the nation, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, engaged with the bipartisan event and a lot of healing occurred. Norman and I were in Parliament House Canberra for it. Rudd wanted to follow with practical reconciliation measures to reduce the huge socio-economic disadvantage of Indigenous people on most socio-economic indicators like health and mortality, education, employment etc.

However, at the 10-year mark in 2018, it was found that only 2 of the 7 targets were met. It was a failure. There have been extensive negotiations since then for a reset and finally, very recently 16 targets instead of 7 have been set and signed onto by federal and state governments and 50 peak Indigenous organizations.

I am especially happy that there are new targets for reducing by 2031 the extremely high levels of incarceration of Indigenous adults (by 15%) and youth (by 30%), reducing the high number of children in out-of-home care (by 45%) reducing overcrowding in housing and new targets for recognizing Indigenous legal interests over land and sea and increasing the use of Indigenous languages. However, should all these targets by met by 2031, it will still be a very long time into the future before parity is reached and there is no gap – a sad situation.

I have 12 prayer points I can send to anyone interested.

BLACK LIVES MATTER (cont)

15.1 per cent of all homicide victims nationally were Aboriginal, as were 15.7 per cent of all homicide offenders — and yet ­Aboriginal people were less than 3 per cent of the population.”

Re black-on-black violence, The Australian also reported on 15.6.20, that Aboriginal leader “Jacinta Price wrote in The Daily Telegraph on June 9: ‘In 2018 in the NT alone, 85 per cent (4355) of Aboriginal victims of crime knew the ­offender. Half were victimised by partners. Aboriginal women made up 88 per cent (2075) of those victims.’

“Aboriginal children were 5.9 per cent of the population but five times more likely to be hospitalised after an assault than non-indigenous children. ‘Between 2007 and 2011, 26 per cent of all deaths among Aboriginal children … were … (from) abuse injury,’ she wrote. ‘The leading cause of child death between 2014 and 2017 … was suicide. This is a quarter of all child suicides in Australia (85 of 357)’.”

“Realising that there are fun­damental connections between child neglect, child sexual abuse, Aboriginal victims of crime and the high rates of incarceration will allow us to address these critical ­issues effectively.”

Some intercessors did pray the prayer strategy of Balaam’s donkey before the Sydney march on 28.7.20 which was cancelled. The donkey (vehicle) refused to take Balaam where he wanted because an angel stood in the way. If you want a copy of this prayer strategy, please contact me.

We are a small team with much ministry happening and we would love to have some support with a one-off offering or a regular donation. One example is that Norman has been doing street ministry via worship on Cairns streets for 3 years now 2 or 3 nights a week. After a short break due to Covid-19 restrictions, he is back doing it again. If you have prayer needs, please let us know.If there is anything specific you would like to sow into, then please use it as a reference.   Here are our bank details –

DAVIDIC ANOINTING: COVID-19 TO DOVID-19

crown

By Norman Miller 26.3.20

I sensed the Lord was saying that it is a Davidic anointing that will deal with the Covid-19. The Lord gave me Dovid-19 and a number of scriptures where He highlighted chapter 19. Barbara pointed out that Dovid is the Jewish (Yiddish) spelling for David. I believe that the Lord is using this virus to wipe out some of the Saul-like structures in the church and take us back to the heart of David, the harp and bowl ministry and house churches.

When Barbara and I hosted the 3-day Australia Day Prayer in Canberra this year, the Lord led me to prophecy over the ACT and Canberra delegates that the Lord wanted them to model the church in the book of Acts. I could see them meeting in house churches across the city and multiplying. Acts 15:13-19 also talks about the Tabernacle of David which raises up prayer, praise and worship, Godly justice, the government of God and Jew and Gentile worshipping together. I saw this as a blueprint that would then spread out from Canberra, the head of the nation, around Australia.

The Lord gave me these scriptures at the Australia Day Prayer we hosted in Canberra. One was Ex 20:20, where Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you” so we need not be afraid of this testing time with the coronavirus. Also, we need to believe the Lord will reveal Himself through this time as in John 20:20 “After He said this, He showed them His hands and side. The disciples were overjoyed when they saw the Lord.”

The Lord highlighted 5 scriptures to me relating to Covid-19 and Dovid-19 – Gen 19, Psalms 19, Isaiah 19, Acts 19 and Rev 19. Psalm 19:9 says “Reverence (fear) of the Lord is pure, lasting forever. The laws of the Lord are true; each one is fair.” We need to have fear of God not fear of the coronavirus. Psalm 19:1 says that “The heavens proclaim the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.” We aren’t meant to touch one another but God’s hand is not so short that it can’t save and His hand is in the land.

In Gen 18:23-32, Abraham pleads that if there are 50 righteous in Sodom and Gomorrah, not to destroy the righteous with the wicked. God agreed He would spare it if 50 could be found. Abraham pleads for mercy progressively down to 10 righteous and God agrees. In Gen 19, Abraham awakes to their destruction with not even 10 righteous found. We need to plead with God for mercy as Abraham did.

We need Davidic worship to deal with crisis situations like the coronavirus. Barbara and I have a vision to establish Davidic worship or Tabernacles of David or the harp and bowl ministry along the Isaiah 19 highway. Isaiah 19:23-25 says, “In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together. In that day Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing on the earth. The Lord Almighty will bless them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork, and Israel my inheritance.”

The Lord has been impressing upon me that we need to be praying for signs, wonders and miracles as this is what He wants to pour out at this time. We need to be praying that we will have the same anointing as Peter so that people would be healed by our shadow. Also, that we can lay hands on hankies, aprons etc and people will be healed. That’s the kind of contagion I would like. Acts 19:11-12 says:

“God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, so that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them.”

Also, there was a riot in Ephesus when Paul persuaded them that handmade gods were not gods at all and so idol makers where losing business. The idol makers stirred up the crowd to defend the goddess Artemis or Diana and they gathered in the amphitheatre to shout “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!” In 1998, Peter Wagner gathered a large group from around the world in the same amphitheatre to worship for 4 hours to reverse what happened in the spirit with this incident. We were privileged to be with them and I believe a 4-hour prayer event is very powerful in pushing back the enemy.

We need to pray against rioting and lawlessness that could occur with millions of people suddenly jobless who may have trouble paying for their house and food etc. Relationships may break down and social norms may be at risk. We need also to pray that internet, telephone, electricity and other services are maintained as there is an extra load on them and chaos could occur with such a communication breakdown. Through this chaos, there is a Kairos time in God for godly breakthrough and salvations.

Rev 19 shows that heaven itself erupts in praise and songs of victory when Babylon has fallen. God has the last say over the world system and all that is not of Him. There are four hallelujahs.

After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitude in heaven shouting:

“Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,
for true and just are his judgments.
He has condemned the great prostitute
who corrupted the earth by her adulteries.
He has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”

 (Rev 19:1-2)

We have throne-room worship, the roar of rushing waters or loud thunder and the wedding feast of the Lamb. Great joy erupts in heaven.

I believe we are in a war between the ancient dragon and the Ancient of Days (Dan 7:9), the father of lies and the Father of Truth and the false roaring lion (1Pe 5:8) and the Lion of the Tribe of Judah. And we know who wins.

I believe we need to lay our crowns down before the Lord like the 24 elders in Rev 4:10. The Lion of Judah (Jesus) is the only One worthy to open the scroll and when He took the scroll, the 24 elders fell down before the Lamb (Jesus) with their harps and bowls and they sang a new song:

“And when he had taken it, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they were holding golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of God’s people.” (Rev 5:8)

As a prophetic act, I would like to see 3 elders from each state and territory i.e. 24 elders lay their crowns down before the Lord and shout “Hallelujah!”
