VISION OF A RUDDER-LIKE EVENT TO TURN THE SHIP OF OUR NATION AROUND 

By Barbara Miller

While praying for Australia before our church service on Saturday 27/4/24, I remembered a word the Lord had given me for an Australia Day prayer conference we held in Canberra before Covid.  In it, I had a vision of a rudder that could turn around the ship of our nation back to Judeo-Christian values. A rudder is small but it can turn a big ship around. So I asked the Lord, what is the rudder we need now to turn our nation around and I was surprised to be guided in prayer that the rudder is the alleged stabbing of the Assyrian Bishop recently by a boy charged with terrorism who had shouted allahu akbar as he did it with the bishop forgiving him

On reflection, two changes occurred. One was that police and ASIO who had not acted when Jews were assaulted by Muslims, when Islamic hate preachers preached death to Jews and street protestors shouted kill the Jews etc, acted quickly this time.  They found a terror network of teenagers, arresting them on the eve of Anzac Day to avert a terror attack. This may have been because a Christian Arab was attacked rather than a Jew and/or the crowds that would be out for Anzac Day. With about 2,000 rioters gathering outside the church after the livestreamed alleged stabbing, police were injured and police cars damaged because police protected the perpetrator. They were likely concerned re Arab on Arab violence. 

Secondly this bishop, Mar Mari Emmanuel, already reportedly had 120,000 followers before the alleged attempted murder but now his profile is greatly increased and he is someone who is not frightened to stand up for biblical values and challenge Islam. He has visited Gaza in the past and may be critical of Israel. However, I will be praying the Lord uses him to speak fearlessly for Judeo-Christian values.

In my prayer, I also saw a stone being dropped in a pool and the ripples going out from it and felt it was healing waves so I pray that the Lord will heal our nation from the division and lack of social cohesion that has beset it and bring revival.

However, we have another development this morning in that messages on signal indicate that, a few days after the alleged stabbing of the bishop, the teens said that their next target would be Jews. This has obviously alarmed the Jewish community along with anti-Israel camps being set up at Sydney and Melbourne universities and 5-year-olds being taught by their teacher to chant “intifada” and “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free”, a genocidal call to wipe Israel and Jewish people off the map. The call to prayer is urgent so that God would turn our nation around to be a sheep nation not a goat nation (Matt 25).

SURAFEND, ANZAC DAY AND PRO PALESTINIAN TEACHERS 24.4.24

“While Surafend is a little-known part of our ANZAC history, I went there twice in 2010 and 2017, met locals and researched the history,” said author, historian and pastor Barbara Miller. “For the pro-Palestinian lobby of Australian teachers to denigrate the ANZAC legacy by rewriting it emphasizing Surafend, tying it erroneously to the Israel-Gaza war and belittling the sacrifice of so many Australian soldiers and their families on the eve of ANZAC Day is disgusting.”

Co-founder of the Centre for International Reconciliation and Peace with her husband Pastor Norman Miller, Ms Miller said, “The Victorian Teachers and School Staff for Palestine (TSSP) have produced their own material with which to indoctrinate our children with their anti-Israel, anti-Australian agenda. They should at least get their facts right.

“Their 40-page booklet titled Teaching for Palestine: Challenging Anzac Day will ignore teaching resources from the Australian War Memorial though it is aligned with the national curriculum. The teachers are reportedly concerned with imperialistic and militaristic views.

“What happened at Surafend? The war was over and the ANZACs were camped near the Bedouin village of Surfend on 10 December 1918. The troops were tired of the British protecting the Arabs who had a long record of thieving and other harassment. SEE MORE

Mothers Day 2021 at Tabernacle of David Cairns

28 Her children arise and call her blessed;
    her husband also, and he praises her:
29 “Many women do noble things,
    but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
    but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31 Honor her for all that her hands have done,
    and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.

Proverbs 31:28-31

The situation in Israel is critical with over 2,000 missiles fired into Israel from Gaza and we’ve been praying earnestly and keeping in touch with our Jewish friends in Israel. This message was given by Barbara at our congregation 15 May. While Hamas in Gaza have been the most militant, Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas has recently stated they will be a “thorn” in the side for Israel, an eerie reminder of Nu 33:55.

We congratulate Israel on the 73rd anniversary of David Ben-Gurion’s declaration of the state of Israel on 14 May 1948. It was also Jerusalem Day this week. As I write this newsletter, it is Erev Shavuot which celebrates the birth of the nation of Israel with the giving of the law to Moses on Mt Sinai. It is also the birth of the church at the feast of Shavout which is called Pentecost as in
Acts 2.

VISION BY BARBARA 6.5.21 AT GAP PRAYER MEETING
GATHERING APOSTOLIC PROPHETIC NETWORK Ezek 22:30

Our GAP Network has been earnestly praying for our nation and its government now into our third year as a network led by Norman and Barbara where we shadow the federal government ministers and their portfolios. We also pray for state governments as needed.

VISION

On Thursday 6 May, I had a vision while in prayer for our GAP meeting and I shared it with them on zoom that night. I saw Australia as a fortress with the drawbridge up. I knew it related to Australia’s policy of closed borders with only a few allowed in and out and the 2-week pause relating to Australians returning from India during a pandemic out of control. Thousands of Australians have been stranded overseas in a number of countries, many for a year or so. There are many distressing stories. I prayed that our quarantine facilities would be improved so more Australians could come home and that the vaccine rollout would be handled better and be rolled out more quickly and safely. We regularly pray for other nations re recovery from covid-19 and comfort for those who’ve lost loved ones.

To my surprise, Saturday’s newspapers used my words “Fortress Australia” and then later we had the cartoon above. In Tuesday’s budget on 11 May, the federal government said it did not expect Australia’s borders to open until mid-2022. This was a big shock to many Australians who had expected that with the vaccine rollout, we might see the borders open later this year. This is important not just for families to be reunited but for business, tourism and overseas students.

Our Christian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, Jewish treasurer Josh Frydenburg and the government have done an outstanding job in keeping Australia safe from the coronavirus and keeping the economy afloat. We praise God for His blessing on our nation and that we have been able to help other nations as well.

Right – HANDS UP AGAINST EUTHANASIA.

Art by Ps Norman which he uses to campaign against voluntary assisted dying legislation. Victoria and Western Australia have already passed it and it is presently before the Queensland Parliament. Munganbana is Norman’s Aboriginal name. He started the Voice of First Nations Peoples Against Euthanasia recently and has put out a flyer out about it which has been sent to Queensland Members of Parliament. An summary of it is:

Pro Euthanasia legislation is disrespectful to the customs of First Nations Peoples around death which is a community matter not just an individual decision- black lives do indeed matter.

Rushing to introduce euthanasia when rising suicide rates are a national problem is inexplicable and against the public interest, especially for First Nations Peoples. Nobody is morally compelled to suffer unbearable pain. Every Queenslander has the human right to have equal access to good quality palliative care before a policy default to euthanasia and Indigenous communities need a funding boost for palliative care. This conscience vote should be accompanied by the public interest test which includes the common good, human dignity and autonomy. We need compassion.
