Tonight was the beginning of our Great Gospel Campaign here in Ogbomosho, Nigeria and we can already see that this is going to be an extraordinary week. 150,000 people attended tonight's opening meeting including the governor of Oyo State and as Evangelist Bonnke and I ministered, the Word of God was received with great faith.

Tonight we witnessed the power of the Gospel not only to save and deliver, but also to heal.

Among others, a man totally deaf in both ears for 17 years was healed tonight as well as a boy who had been crippled for 3 years and a woman who had been blind for 2 years.

Tomorrow the Fire Conference begins first thing in the morning and thousands of pastors and church workers will come to receive an impartation from Heaven. Please continue to pray for us and for Ogbomosho this week as the "Outpouring" continues.

Together in the Harvest,

Tonight the attendance increased to 200,000 here in Ogbomosho, Nigeria. Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke preached a classic Gospel message and when the invitation for salvation was given, the response was overwhelming. It is as though a flash flood of salvation has swept through this region washing away every stronghold of sin and Satan. Have a look at the attached picture of a girl healed from blindness in her right eye tonight.

This morning was also the beginning of the Fire Conference which will conclude on Saturday. We are praying that the Lord would raise up an army of Holy Spirit anointed men and women here in Ogbomosho that will continue to reap the harvest long after we are gone.

Please continue to pray for us.

Just moments ago, we left the crusade field where 250,000 people gathered to hear the Gospel. I preached a classic message about the blood of Jesus and then we appropriated the power of that blood with great effect. Many thousands prayed with me to receive salvation and then I began to call out the traditional curses one by one, breaking their power in the name of Jesus!

Evangelist Bonnke then stepped in and began to pray for the sick. Bursts of joy rang out from the crowd as here and there healings began to manifest. We rejoiced with the people as we heard wonderful testimonies:
An elderly woman was healed tonight after having been totally blind for 5 years.
An elderly man was also healed after having been blind for 9 years.
A boy who had be been paralyzed walked tonight for the first time in 5 years!

We are looking forward to tomorrow’s meetings where, in the Fire Conference and in the evening meeting, the Holy Spirit will be poured out on the thousands who gather to receive. Salvation, deliverance, healing and Holy Spirit infilling ... this is the full Gospel and we are not ashamed! There is still much work to be done here in Ogbomosho. Thank you for continuing to uphold us in prayer as we press on.

Together in the Gospel,

This has been a Holy Spirit day from start to finish. This morning, in the final meeting of the Fire Conference, thousands of pastors received an impartation of the fire of the Holy Spirit. I laid hands on over 500 pastors and sent them out into the huge crowd to lay hands on all the other delegates. We heard that a young Muslim man who had been a mute for 2 years was there when the Holy Spirit fell and suddenly discovered he could speak. He didn’t know what had happened to him so he began asking the pastors. They explained to him that it was Jesus who had healed him!

Tonight, after I preached the Gospel, Evangelist Bonnke prayed for the 275,000 people gathered on the crusade field to also receive the Baptism into the Holy Spirit and I had to choke back the tears as the roar of the crowd caused the ground to tremble.

On the day of Pentecost, Peter had the spiritual discernment to recognize that what was taking place was more than ecstatic manifestations or paranormal phenomena. He had the prophetic sensitivity to see beyond the wind, the fire, the tongues and the ecstasy…realizing the eternal significance of that Pentecostal outpouring. “This is that”, he said, “Which was spoken by the prophet Joel”.

We are living now in the greatest days of Holy Spirit outpouring the world has ever known. These are more than good meetings. These are more than ecstatic manifestations and supernatural phenomena. May God give us the spiritual perception to recognize as Peter did that, “This is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel…in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit…” (Acts 2:16-18)

Have a look at the attached pictures of Reverend Peter Van den Berg preaching at the Fire Conference this morning and also a man whose short leg grew tonight!

Together in the Gospel,

Tonight I’m sure that all of Heaven was focused on the massive harvest that took place in Ogbomosho, Nigeria. We were amazed to see that the crowd had grown so dramatically over yesterday to 400,000! I preached the Gospel and prayed for the sick and Jesus did the rest. The response was overwhelming and thousands passed from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God.

After the testimonies of healing, Evangelist Bonnke pronounced blessings over the land and following each declaration there was a mighty, earth-shaking “AMEN!” that resounded from the crowd. The people received every blessing in faith and they will not be disappointed in Jesus name.

We head back to our respective homes in the morning with the realization that something of eternal significance has been accomplished this week. Once again, thank you SO MUCH for sending us and upholding us in prayer. We depend on your support and share with you in harvest joy.

Together in the Harvest,
