Hallelujah! Jesus is alive and with us my beloved friends in Christ.

On 29th of September, we travelled from Blenheim to Kaikoura. We stopped in Ward to see my old home and property. At one point for a split second, I examined whether I should call in, that I might revisit old painful memories. But in my spirit, I discerned that all that pain and trauma has already been taken away completely by Jesus. I can say without any doubt, that all past sorrows have no relevance to me now, as I have completely transitioned from darkness to light.

All the glory belongs to Jesus, because He did it all for me. Thank You Jesus, my Lord, my King and my Saviour. Amen.

Galatians 2:20  I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

Colossians 2:9-15 For in Him all the fullness of Deity (the Godhead) dwells in bodily form [completely expressing the divine essence of God]. And in Him you have been made complete [achieving spiritual stature through Christ], and He is the head over all rule and authority [of every angelic and earthly power]. In Him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not made with hands, but by the [spiritual] circumcision of Christ in the stripping off of the body of the flesh [the sinful carnal nature], 

having been buried with Him in baptism and raised with Him [to a new life] through [your] faith in the working of God, [as displayed] when He raised Christ from the dead. When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh (worldliness, manner of life), God made you alive together with Christ, having [freely] forgiven us all our sins,

 having canceled out the certificate of debt consisting of legal demands [which were in force] against us and which were hostile to us. And this certificate He has set aside and completely removed by nailing it to the cross. When He had disarmed the rulers and authorities [those supernatural forces of evil operating against us], He made a public example of them [exhibiting them as captives in His triumphal procession], having triumphed over them through the cross.

Previously, I had lived in Ward and worked with Dennis Burkhart, on his cray fishing boat. This was the first real job that I enjoyed to do.

Dennis is also a great employer. Dennis and his wife Barbara went out of their way to help me. In many ways, this was a major turning point in my life. I went from a fruitless life on the dole, addicted to drugs and alcohol, to earning my own way and eventually buying a house in Ward.

I still give the credit to God my Father in Heaven. He has helped me and protected me all the way, because He always loved me, and had a great plan for me.

The Golden Elm trees you see, in the photo, I planted about 25 years ago. When I first purchased the half acer property. There was just knee high grass with no fences or hedges. I spent a lot of time renovating and landscaping the property.

Once upon a time I had always desired to live the Kiwi dream with a family and a home. Three times I thought I had it, then lost it all, mostly due to my own fault, living in the sinful, worldly ways.

But Jesus Healed me, and set me free from those demonic strongholds and destructive ways. He has fulfilled that dream for me now, as I have my family in Christ and a mansion awaits me in my real, eternal home with Him.

2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.

John 14:2-3 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.

We had left Blenheim late, as we needed to get brother Pio’s medication before leaving. This turned out to be a quite a mission as local doctors would not see him, because he come from out of town. But the Lord made a way, as we contacted an online doctor’s practise, just in time.

We arrived at our Kaikoura camp and parked as the sun was going down. When I hopped out of the bus I noticed a cool crispness in the air. Then I saw the ice capped mountains in the distance.

We decided to go look for some sea food. The guys were keen to buy some crayfish. But when we saw the prices, we quickly moved on to a cheaper fish and chip shop.

The next day, Tuesday, being our day of rest with The Lord, He presented us with a beautiful day.

I went for a lovely prayer walk all the way down to the town and back. As I talked with Jesus, He comforted and ministered with me, putting all things into His divine and perfect perspective.

The Holy Spirit filling me with a fresh anointing of peace love and joy, in all His wonderful wisdom.

Zephaniah 3:17 The Lord your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.”

The next Day, Wednesday, we set up a barbecue on the Main Street, outside a local pub.

The pub while not opening until late afternoon, provided the perfect location. The weather was cold and showery, but there were still many tourists there from different countries.

However they were not interested in the free sausages, drinks or prayer. We were glad to see at least 5 people, decide to accept Jesus into their hearts. I noticed quite a few very nice local restaurants, which I think looked more appealing to the people.

But what they missed is far greater and more important than anything the world can offer them. Everlasting peace, love, joy and life in Jesus Christ our Saviour, starting from today.

Without Him they will not see Heaven. We ask You Jesus to water Your seeds sown through brother Logen’s preaching, to open their eyes of understanding before it is too late.

Mathew 13:14-15 And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says:

‘Hearing you will hear and shall not understand,
And seeing you will see and not perceive;
For the hearts of this people have grown dull.
Their ears are hard of hearing,
And their eyes they have closed,
Lest they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears,
Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,
So that I should heal them.’

At about 2.00pm we packed up and continued our journey south to our next destination, Christchurch. On the way, the Toyota Coaster I was driving broke down. The engine suddenly went into lymph mode, losing nearly all power. However it was still drivable at a very slow speed, so I decided to continue on to Cheviot and seek a mechanic there.

Well this happened to be the longest 30 minute drive ever, taking about an hour to get to Cheviot, from where we were. When I come to a hill, the bus would crawl up at about 5 km per hour. But on a down hill, up to 80km. I pulled over as much as possible to let very patient traffic cues pass. There were many prayers, and God my faithful Father, always answers. We made it to Cheviot, thank You Jesus.

John 15:7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.

By this time, we were approaching late afternoon, so we needed to call for help ASAP. The local mechanic said it was too late for him to see me, but he gave me the number of a local AA tow truck operator. He also gave me a tip on how to reset the computer, to bring it out of lymph mode.

So I unhooked the positive cable off the battery and left it for 30 minutes, then reconnected, as advised. Of course the prayers and thanks giving to Father continued. Well I started the bus and what do you know, it reset and was back to normal, Hallelujah! praise God. There were many more praises and thanks giving to Jesus all the way to our destination in Waikuku, just north of Christchurch.

Psalm 28:7 The Lord is my strength and my shield;
My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped;
Therefore my heart greatly rejoices,
And with my song I will praise Him.

We made it to the camp reception office just before closing time. We had just enough daylight, to park up the buses and set up the awning for brother Pio, praise God. Praise God, we also could set up a nice big, new heater for him, we acquired a while ago. Finally we could relax and rest.

Thank You Father for helping us, we would not have got here without Your amazing help. Thank You Jesus for strengthening us. Never at anytime, did I panic or worry, because I trust in You at all times Father God, to be my help in trouble. Amen.

Colossians 3:15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.

Thank you for joining us here, we hope you are inspired to step out in an act of faith, to follow Jesus in the calling He has upon your life.

About Kaikoura….

Kaikōura (/kaɪˈkɔːrə/; Māori pronunciation: [kaiˈkoːuɾa]) is a town on the east coast of the South Island of New Zealand, located on State Highway 1, 180 kilometres (110 mi) north of Christchurch. The town has an estimated permanent resident population of 2,380 as of June 2024. Kaikōura is the seat of the territorial authority of the Kaikōura District, which is part of the Canterbury region.

Kaikōura was first inhabited by the Māori, with the Ngāi Tahu iwi occupying the area since at least 1670. Europeans began to settle in Kaikōura in the mid-1840s. By the 1850s, land that had been acquired was sold to European settlers, who most often started sheep farms in the area. Mount Fyffe in the Seaward Kaikōura Range is named in honour of Robert Fyffe and his family, the first European settlers in the area.

The infrastructure of Kaikōura was heavily damaged in the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake, with one of the two deaths near the town. The bay and surrounding region were uplifted by as much as 2 metres (6 ft 7 in). In 2023, Kaikōura was named as one of the “most beautiful small towns in the world”.

Kaikōura is known for its biodiversity, a wide variety of marine mammals can be seen in the sea, including whales and dolphins.

Hello Friends in Christ. We are excited to be in Picton today.

We herd Picton is very busy on Saturdays with families enjoying the lovely Domaine next to the waterfront. Also many cafes and restaurants nearby. Actually it was even busier than usual, as there was a marathon event on at the Domaine, where a finish line was set up.

There were many people there, but our faithful Father in Heaven still had a parking spot for us nearby, where we were to set up.

Praise His wonderful name, thank You Jesus.

The sun was out, but there was a fairly strong wind blowing through from the north west. I am so glad the Lord gave us a heavy duty gazebo. I also bought some guide ropes to tie it down, thank You Holy Spirit for Your divine Wisdom.

We quickly set up the gazebo and barbecue. Brothers Pio and Logen let everyone know, there would be a free sausage sizzle with prayer.

Well this turned out to be far too early, as about 15 people quickly lined up, when I had literally just put them on to cook. Logen prayed blessings and salvation prayer with them all while they waited for the sausages to cook.

A lovely Indian family who were having a picnic nearby came over for a sausage.

We did pray a blessing over them, English was not their first language. They were so taken by what The Lord was doing, that they wanted to return a blessing, so they brought cake and drinks over to us. They then wanted to take photos, to treasure this time together.

There is a universal language, it’s called LOVE, from GOD. AGAPE

1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.

Wow! How amazing you are Jesus, drawing people together from all around the world, through Your love at the Cross, by Your resurrection power, by Your Spirit. All the glory can only belong to Jesus, You are the only one worthy.

John 15: 12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

Blessed be His Holy name, God sent help, when a sister in Christ from C3 Church in Blenheim volunteered to help. She had come with Sister Burie, praise God.

Many people came to receive food and prayer. One divine appointment that stood out was a dear elderly lady, who declared she is from the Catholic denomination.

She shared with us that her beloved pet dog had recently passed away. She was still grieving for her loss and was upset God would let this happen.

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

We encouraged her, that it was not God’s will to hurt her, but simply her pet’s time to go. We all have an expiry date, and eventually all will return to Him.

I asked Jesus to heal her heart, and prayed blessing over her. She then agreed to pray with me the salvation prayer. Well God had already touched her in the first prayer as her spirit started to lift.

After the salvation prayer she was really filled with joy, praise God, glory to Jesus. She left a changed woman, baptised in the Holy Spirit. Thank You Jesus.

1 Peter 5:6-7 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

Psalm 55:22 Cast your burden on the Lord,
And He shall sustain you;
He shall never permit the righteous to be moved.

At around 3.00pm the crowds had left, so we decided to pack up. Jesus received 55 people into His arms today. People who accepted Him into their hearts, Hallelujah! Glory to Jesus.

Praise God, Hallelujah! for all You are doing. Hello friends in Christ. We are in Blenheim again, at the same spot as last time.

Once again the Holy Spirit took over, drawing many people into Jesus. Another fine but windy north westerly day. This is the predominant weather pattern for this region, drying the landscape brown over the summer months.

Grass or forest fires are common in the summer season, taking only a spark from farm machinery to ignite.

We set up for Barbecue again, and brother Pio brought out the guitar to sing a few gospel songs.

People trickled through all day, to receive food, water, bibles and prayer. Some hung around for fellowship, which was lovely.

A representative from the Blenheim council, Jamie approached us about the speaker. According to Jamie, there had been a number of complaints about the speaker.

The friendly councilman Jamie, provided a paper saying we need to apply for a permit for an amplified speaker in public. So we turned the speaker off and said we will keep it off.

I asked Jamie if I could pray for him, and he said yes. So I prayed blessings over him and family. He then agreed to accept Jesus into his heart. A divine appointment from God, Hallelujah!

John 6:44  No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.

The Holy Spirit drew in 38 precious souls to Jesus today, glory to Jesus. We are constantly in awe of what our faithful Father in Heaven is doing here on earth, and for the people of New Zealand.

John 6:37-40 All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. 

This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

Today I was thinking how so glad New Zealand has decided not to agree with the two state solution, as most of the nations have done.

God has said in His Holy word that Israel will never be divided again and who ever curses Israel with be cursed themselves.

New Zealand has made the right choice, concerning this agreement, which is an abomination before God, who sees all things.

Ezekiel 37:21-22 Then say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord God: “Surely I will take the children of Israel from among the nations, wherever they have gone, and will gather them from every side and bring them into their own land; and I will make them one nation in the land, on the mountains of Israel; and one king shall be king over them all; they shall no longer be two nations, nor shall they ever be divided into two kingdoms again.“

Genesis12:3 ‘I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.’

Numbers 24:9 ‘He bows down, he lies down as a lion;
And as a lion, who shall rouse him?’

“Blessed is he who blesses you,
And cursed is he who curses you.

There is nothing hidden from our Creator in Heaven. He sees behind closed doors and into the hearts of all people, and will one day judge us all on the account of what we have done in our time here on earth.

We will find out if our names are in the book of eternal life. If anyone’s name is not written in the Book of Life, will be cast into the lake of fire.

Revelation 20:11-15 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life.

And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 

Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

Lord Jesus, we pray that You open the eyes and hearts of the lost souls of this world. Have mercy upon them. Water the seeds of Christ planted in them, that they will turn to You from darkness to light.

We ask You to make divine appointments for the lost, that they be pulled away from the fiery pits of hell, into Your loving arms of life in abundance. Amen.

Hello brothers and sisters in Christ.

Today we were in Havelock sharing the Good News. We set up in central township outside a very impressive, brand new toilet block.

We were in between two very popular cafes, so quite a lot of competition for our free barbecue.

We found the people very friendly here.

Lots of people stopping by for refreshments, who were on their way to Nelson. The weather was a bit windy with the odd shower, but mostly fine. There were not many people out and about on the street, so it was a bit slow going.

We were keen to get some mussels, but apparently the boats didn’t go out today. There were lots of lovely restaurants and cafes around, but unfortunately a little expensive for us. We did however enjoy the picturesque scenery.

We stayed from 12.00-4.00pm, with 20 people praying the salvation prayer with us, hallelujah! We then headed back to camp.

Psalm 62:1 Truly my soul silently waits for God;
From Him comes my salvation.

Acts 4:12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

Thank you for joining us, God bless, please comment by clicking on the post title.

With love from your brother in Christ,

About Havelock….

Havelock is a small town in the Marlborough Region of New Zealand, at the head of Pelorus Sound, one of the Marlborough Sounds, and at the mouth of the Pelorus and Kaituna Rivers

State Highway 6 from Nelson to Blenheim passes through the town. Queen Charlotte Drive, which provides a shorter but very winding road to Picton proceeds east along the edge of the Sounds. Canvastown lies 10 kilometres to the west. Renwick is 31 km (19 mi) to the south. Picton lies 35 km to the east.

Havelock serves as the centre for much of the New Zealand green-lipped mussel industry, and promotes itself as the greenshell mussel capital of the world. It also functions as the base for a mail boat servicing the remote communities in the Marlborough Sounds, as well as for many fishing and recreational boats.

The name “Havelock” commemorates Sir Henry Havelock (1795–1857), known from the Siege of Lucknow during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The streets were laid out in 1858, with Lucknow Street as the main thoroughfare. The gold rush to the Wakamarina Valley in 1864 boosted the growth of the township, with sawmilling becoming the main activity until the 1910s, later joined by dairying. The valleys around Havelock contain many pine plantations.

Across the Kaituna River estuary, the Cullen Point Scenic Reserve and the Mahakipawa Hill Scenic Reserve offer a coastal walking-track to a lookout at Cullen Point.

All thanks and glory to God our Father in Jesus Christ.

Another wonderful day with the Lord God Almighty, working miracles on the streets of Blenheim. Thank You Father for blessing us with a lovely, sunny, Spring day.

Today we set up a barbecue in Blenheim central town. We set up the gazebo and barbecue in a small domain, seated area, next to public toilets. A central location where quite a few people passed through.

Sister in Christ, Burie in the back with her grand children up front.

Burie is from Papa New Guinea, is a sister in Christ living in Blenheim. She has a powerful ministry with Lord Jesus as an evangelist and intercessor. She has also joined me in outreaches in Picton.

We preached the word of God across the streets, so people were receiving many divine seeds from Jesus. Brother Pio praised God with a few gospel songs, bringing wonderful anointed songs to many listening ears on the street. A store owner did asked us to turn the volume down, so we apologised and turned it down.

Luke 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.

We were there from 11.00am to 4.30pm, so quite a good while. 69 people decided to accept Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Saviour, praise God, thank You Holy Spirit. A few of those people did rededicated to Jesus, when they realise how distant they have been from Him, Praise God.

Acts 3:19  Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord

1 John 5:4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

Thank You Lord Jesus, for giving us a very pleasant day, drawing in an abundant harvest for Your Kingdom. Thank You for your Angel armies surrounding and protecting us. Thank You for Your river of life that continues to grow wider and deeper wherever we go. Amen.

Psalm 91:11 For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.

Ezekiel 47:6-9 He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen this?” Then he brought me and returned me to the bank of the river.  When I returned, there, along the bank of the river, were very many trees on one side and the other. Then he said to me: “This water flows toward the eastern region, goes down into the valley, and enters the sea. 

When it reaches the sea, its waters are healed. And it shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever the rivers go, will live. There will be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters go there; for they will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river goes.

Praise God we are here in the top of the South Island.

We faired well our brothers and sisters in Christ around Wellington and caught the 1.30 pm ferry sailing to Picton.

We left Wellington in the midst of rain and high winds. As we arrived in Picton, we were welcomed with blue skies and light winds, praise God.

We had been praying against the wet weather forecast for Marlborough and God apparently heard our prayers, Hallelujah! Thank you Lord.

1 John 5:14-15 Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.

Gale force winds and rain were buffeting Wellington City as we waited for the ferry.

While I waited, I made myself a nice hot chocolate drink and enjoyed a lovely sandwich, Sharyn had given me for the trip.

We enjoyed our trip across the Cook Strait.

I used the time to work on the blog and have a bite to eat. We went up onto the top deck to get a view of the beautiful Queen Charlotte Sounds.

I am very familiar with the sounds, as I lived in Marlborough for 12 years, quite some time ago.

Brother Pio and Logan met Philip and his brother on the ferry.

Of course the conversation turned to Jesus. After receiving the gospel message they both eagerly decided to receive the greatest gift of all, everlasting life through Jesus Christ.

Brand new believers, praise God. They had been diving at a local beach in Wellington, so gifted the brothers some Kina and Paua from our suppliers.

John 1:12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name

Today being the 23rd of September, we enjoyed a nice relaxing day in the sunshine capital of New Zealand.

We temporarily lost brother Pio last night when we left Blenheim. Both Logen and myself thought he was driving behind us in the van, but when we arrived at the camp, no sign of him.

He wasn’t answering his phone, so we prayed and asked The Lord to help him find his way to the camp.

Psalm 18:6 In my distress I called upon the Lord,
And cried out to my God;
He heard my voice from His temple,
And my cry came before Him, even to His ears.

Finally he answered his pone 2 hours later reporting that he thought we went another way and his phone was out of credit.

Thank You Lord for answering our prayers once again, and helping brother Pio to arrive safely.

Psalm 34:17 The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears,
And delivers them out of all their troubles.

I hope to catch up with my two son’s while here in Blenheim. Will be great to see them again and spend time with them.

Thank You Father God for getting us down here safely to our location. Thank You for always making a way for us. We reach forward to the Goal of the upward call in Christ Jesus. Amen.

God bless you all, to behold all the riches of God in Christ Jesus, please comment by clicking on the post title.

With love from your brother in Christ,

God bless you all my brothers and sisters in Christ.

Thank you for joining us here to witness the amazing works of our Lord Jesus Christ. Today we are back in Cuba Street for the Saturday barbecue, praise God.

Our Father in Heaven treated us to another beautiful sunny day, so many people were out and about.

The Lord added more labourers to His outreach as they joined us on the streets.

Some had come by word of mouth, and two Nigerian pastors we met in Kilbirnie yesterday. Ps Emmanuel , and wife, Blessings. They both went straight for the mic, and preached a very anointed gospel message to the public.

Blessings certainly lived up to her name as she sang a beautiful hymn and blessed us all.

Psalm 96:1-6. Oh, sing to the Lord a new song!
Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Sing to the Lord, bless His name;
Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.
Declare His glory among the nations,
His wonders among all peoples.

For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised;
He is to be feared above all gods.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols,
But the Lord made the heavens.

 Honour and majesty are before Him;
Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.

Brother Logen, sisters Sharyn, Isabel and I, all took a turn in speaking the truth, the way and the life, to the public passing through.

A brother in Christ with his friends who all surrendered their lives to Jesus. Hallelujah!

Many bibles were handed out freely to people who really wanted one, praise God.

Today brother Logen took on the barbecue duties and really enjoyed it. Typically I am usually on cooking duties, but was freed up for preaching and praying for people.

I witnessed so many supernatural divine appointments. Many new believers not hesitating to come up for prayer, glory to Jesus.

Romans 8:21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

Sister Melanie was passing by when she stopped for fellowship.

Melanie mentioned the Lord has led her to evangelising outside the Beehive. She may like to join Sister Sharyn sometime in an outreach together. Also Ps Emmanuel – and his wife are keen to help, praise God. Answer to prayer, thank You Jesus.

Psalm 37:4 Delight yourself also in the Lord,
And He shall give you the desires of your heart.

We met Brother in Christ, Mark, here at a Kilbirnie outreach.

Absolutely filled with zeal and passion for Jesus. Every word he speaks glorifies our Lord God. Holy Spirit filled utterances, breaking out in song suddenly, praising and worshipping Jesus where ever he goes.

Mark always carries a banjo, singing from a great fire of love in his heart for Jesus. Such a privilege to meet a brother in Christ so filled with joy. Mark only has one volume, a continuous, large joyous celebration emanating from his Holy temple.

Brother Logen went through 165 sausages by 2.00pm with 114 people accepting Jesus into their hearts, Glory to Jesus.

Thank You Father God, for such a blessed last day in Wellington City. We thank You for the 4,124 precious souls from all over the Wellington Region who made the decision to receive Christ as Lord and Saviour since we have been here.

We thank You for teaching us new and better ways to reach people, whilst drawing us closer to You. Thank You Jesus for shining Your brilliant life giving light, into the hearts of the New Zealand people.

2 Corinthians 4:6 For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Thank You Father for Your children who bless Souls For Christ in many different ways.

Thank you Jesus for yet another wonderful day in Kilbirnie.

Welcome my beloved friends in Christ. Today we went to Miramar, thinking to have a barbecue there, but we found the town to be very quite, with not many people around.

So the Lord lead us back to Kilbirnie, the neighbouring town, for a barbecue there. There were a lot more people out and about here.

We set up in the same place as last time and the people in the community passed through. Some stopping for prayer, free food and water.

Brother Logen preached the gospel and invited the locals to come over, to receive a blessing from God. Talking about a blessing from God, sister Sharyn joined us today, after a rest.

The sun was out shining and the wind had died down, so God had made a very blessed day for us all. We prophesied a great and mighty work of God through many of the new believers. Praying healing in Jesus name and speaking life in abundance into their precious souls.

Ephesians 4:29 NKJ. A wholesome tongue is a tree of life,
But perverseness in it breaks the spirit.

We had received a new delivery of bibles, so we were able to hand them out to people who needed one., praise God. We thank you Father for all you provide for us and the communities, where ever we go. You always hear our prayers, and faithfully answer them.

2 Corinthians 9:8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance for every good work.

We thank You Jesus, for all our beloved friends following us on this website and lift each one up to You, that they will be richly edified and activated in their callings with You. Amen.

2 Timothy 3:16 All Scripture is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is profitable for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God’s will, both publicly and privately—behaving honourably with personal integrity and moral courage]
