Dear friends and family in Christ,

Click the following link and scroll down to read a reprint of part of our media release that appeared in the 9th March edition of the Australian Newspaper: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/opinion/tony-forget-the-the-the-er-policies-and-ah-fix-your-rhetorical-smirk/story-e6frg6zo-1225838886133

Following is the link to Pastor Daniel’s recent radio interview with Derryn Hinch of 3AW News in regard to our recent media release titled ‘Global cooling shows Divine protection restored – what would Derryn Hinch think?’

Pr Daniel stated, “Even though Derryn Hinch verbally attacked me with many harsh words, as he had the advantage of controlling the interview, I thank the Lord for every opportunity that He gives me to proclaim the uncompromising Word of God.  I feel sorry for Derryn who is obviously so lost in the spiritual darkness of confusion, uncertainty, doubt, and unbelief, as he seems to be a very hurting person who desperately needs the life transforming love of Jesus. My ministry team and I are praying for a ‘Damascus road salvation experience’ for him, also like the former Satanist on Mount Ainslie in Canberra who surrendered his life to Jesus.  Derryn could very well be another Saul, who became Paul. When you listen to this broadcast, please do not get mad with him, but pray for him.

Yes, at times the interview was very heated, but I thank God that He has given me broad shoulders to cop the flak.  According to the Bible in Matthew 5:11-10, the Sermon on the Mount from Jesus, “Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteous, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.” I thank the Father in heaven for giving me the right spirit to love the person who persecutes me while at the same time speaking out the truth with boldness. I am sure you will love this interview Ha! ha!”

Dear family and friends in Christ,

1) Following is a link to the recent ABC Q & A program with atheist Richard Dawkins.  Also on the program were Julie Bishop (Liberal), Steve Fielding (Family First), Tony Burke (ALP) and a few others.

The main topic was Evolution vs. Creation.

Pr Daniel stated, “I watched this program yesterday as I missed the original broadcast. Sitting by my computer I was absolutely shocked and appalled at how Steve Fielding of Family First responded to the questions. On the contrary I was very impressed by both the Liberal & ALP politicians who spoke up very boldly about their Christian faith. Julie Bishop especially needs our applause and appreciation for being very bold in standing up and supporting the teaching of the Bible in all schools across Australia.”

Please take the time to watch and forward to everyone as this could determine who you vote for at the next Federal Election this November.

A Messianic evangelist believes revival is breaking out among Jewish communities in the U.S.

Sid Roth, founder of Georgia-based Messianic Vision and host of the It’s Supernatural television broadcast, said he has seen dozens of Jewish Americans profess faith in Christ in recent months during evangelistic events in New York and California.

Last summer in Brighton Beach, N.Y., nearly 400 Russian Jews reportedly attended an evangelistic meeting billed as a lecture on the paranormal. People were healed, Roth said, including a wheelchair-bound woman who had not been able to walk for five years.

“There was just a move of God’s Spirit, and almost the entire group stood up to make public professions of Messiah,” Roth told Charisma.

Later, at a similar meeting in California, roughly 30 Jews professed faith in Christ. “In my opinion this is unprecedented in America,” said Roth, who has ministered among Jewish communities in the Soviet Union for more than 15 years. “I’ve been in Jewish ministry over 35 years, and I’ve never heard of anything like this before.” Continue reading ‘Messianic Leader Says Revival Breaking Out Among Jewish People’

Media release - For immediate release

Despite warnings to the contrary, another ‘Black Saturday’ was averted through prayer and fasting, with the cooler temperatures across Victoria signalling divine restoration in that state.

Catch the Fire Ministries (CTFM) president, Pastor Daniel Nalliah said following the backlash against him for stating that the bushfires signalled God had removed His protection over the state, linked to Melbourne’s abortion laws, the ‘global cooling’ this past month showed divine protection has been restored in Victoria.

Pastor Nalliah pointed out that we have just finished the summer season 2010 with no major incidents of bushfires at all. Was this because of the State Government’s fire plan or was it because of a supernatural act of God?

“Contrary to grave predictions by the Weather Bureau and the State Government of an increase in deadly bushfires, this past Summer gone has been nothing short of a spectacular miracle!,” Pastor Daniel said.

“So when the Weather Bureau and the State Government warned everyone about the bushfire threat, were they lying like those who spooked the nations with the Global Warming Myth??  It seems now that there is Global Cooling!,” he said.

“Well, we thank and praise God that this bushfire season has been one of the mildest in many years and literally no lives were lost. God’s merciful love in restoring His divine protection over the state of Victoria and across Australia has been in response to the corporate repentance, fasting, and prayers of His Church according to the Bible in 2 Chronicles 7:13-14.”

In an opening article on this issue an Australian journalist says veils are a security risk in the West and should be banned in public.

The reports that a French parliamentary committee wants to ban the full face veil in certain circumstances has caused outrage among not only Muslims, but some respected Christian commentators as well. As an opinion writer who has closely followed issues of human rights and freedom of religion for The Australian newspaper, I too received a flurry of emails when the news broke.

One friend and colleague — the editor of Mercatornet, actually – seeking my opinion expressed his own: “To me, it seems crazy, a violation of freedoms, a victory for a certain brand of feminism, etc. But obviously, many respectable people take a different approach.”

Well, I am one of the “respectable” people to whom he refers (I hope). I do not agree with the wearing of a full face and body veil in the West. In these insecure times there are good reasons for banning it in government offices. Continue reading ‘Muslim face veils: religious right, or security risk?’

Dear family and friends in Christ,

Following is an amazing Pro-Life speech made by Congressman Chris Smith from the US at the UN General Assembly. Interestingly in 1998 while working with the American Government on legislation to protect Christians from getting persecuted in Saudi Arabia, Pr Daniel had the opportunity of spending time with this same Congressman. In his office the Lord spoke to Pr Daniel to start ‘Options + Care’, the Pregnancy Counselling Centre in Australia, after listening to this Congressman debate a bill in the US Congress to stop 7 months abortion.

Read the whole speech below as it is very interesting and informative.

Excerpts from a powerful speech - Chris Smith to the UN http://www.lifenews.com/int1465.html

“Safe abortion” is the ultimate oxymoron. Child dismemberment, forced premature expulsion from the safety of the womb, chemical poisoning or deliberate starvation-one of the chemicals in RU 486 actually denies nourishment to an unborn child– can never, ever be construed to be benign, compassionate or safe… Continue reading ‘A powerful speech to the UN on Pro-Life’

The debate over whether Australia is a racist country has been renewed in the wake of the murdered three year old Indian boy in Melbourne overnight with Catch the Fire ministries president Pastor Daniel Nalliah suggesting the slayings perpetrated against the Sikh community might come from fellow countrymen from their country of origin.
 
As police in Melbourne hunt for the killer of three-year-old Gurshan Sing Channa, Pastor Daniel Nalliah, who is darker skinned and hails from Sri Lanka, said many would see Australia as a racist country with ‘yet another tragic death of an Indian in Australia’.
 
“I think we need to take a good look at the recent spate of attacks on mainly Indians from a Sikh background. The whole world seems to believe Australia is rampant with racism. Darker skinned people are even scared to travel to Australia,” Pastor Daniel said.
 
“My question is, if the attacks are from Whites against blacks, then we all will be possibly on the receiving end but how come the attacks are so clearly on one group of people - the Sikhs from India?”

Dear family & friends in Christ,
 
Thank you so much for your overwhelming support of the email we recently sent regarding CTFM Ministry Credentials.
 
I have personally read through almost every single response we received over the last several days. I would love to respond to each email personally, but it is just not practical right now due to the volume of emails we continue to receive of so many who want to receive their Ministry Credentials through Catch The Fire. Every response has been filed and we will soon send you the application forms.
 
I am so happy and excitingly anticipate a mighty move of God’s Holy Spirit all across our nation of Australia as we prepare ourselves to be totally available for His Kingdom purposes!
 
Please uphold all of CTFM leadership in prayer for God’s increasing wisdom and humility to walk uprightly in His presence in this new season ahead of us.
 
Your Bro in Christ,
 
Pr Daniel Nalliah

Good news! Yesterday afternoon the Federal Senate soundly rejected Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young’s attempt to change the Marriage Act to include same-sex relationships.

Both the government and the Coalition opposed the Bill. The proposal lost 45 votes to five - this means 25 Senators did not vote. Only the five Greens Senators voted for the Bill - showing that they are more about radical social engineering than the environment.

The ‘Marriage Equality Bill’ was tabled by Hanson-Young last year and the Senate decided to send it to Committee. The Committee called for public submissions and a record number were received. Whilst there was considerable opposition a substantial number of submissions were supportive due to the growing activities and organisation of the homosexual lobby.

The Senate Committee rejected same-sex marriage but made two recommendations that we totally reject, including the formation of a national framework to rejecter same-sex and heterosexual relationships. and that the Australian government provide ‘certificates of non-impediment’ to homosexuals and lesbians wanting to get ‘married’ overseas. Continue reading ‘Good News! Same-sex “marriage” bill defeated!’

Dear family & friends in Christ,
 
It’s with great joy that I take this opportunity on behalf of the leadership and board of Catch The Fire Ministries to announce that the Australian Government has officially approved the Ordaining of Ministers of the Gospel for CTFM! 

Legally credentialing 5-Fold Ministers of the Gospel for equipping and edifying the Body of Christ (Ephesians 4:11-13) for extending the Kingdom of God has been a great desire in my heart for many years!
 
Although the process was quite lengthy, including providing much legal documentation, attending board meetings and other meetings, etc., it was certainly worth the challenging effort. In the past several years the Lord has been speaking to me about the desperate need for the restoration of the 5-Fold Ministry in the Body of Christ all over the world, and especially in Australia.  Over the years in Australia and around the world, most of the Church (in nearly every Mainline, Evangelical, Pentecostal, Charismatic Denomination, etc.) has been run primarily by the Ministry Gift / Office of the Pastor and has unfairly put a severe load, yoke, and burden on one particular Ministry Gift / Office, causing major personal breakdowns in marriages and families with many Pastors leaving their God-given call to Christian ministry and spiritual leadership in the Body of Christ. (Matthew 11:28-30)
 
Obeying the leadership of the Holy Spirit and the authority of the Word of God in Ephesians 4:11-13, Catch The Fire Ministries will be ordaining Christian Ministers of the Gospel to function under the anointing of the Holy Spirit in their respective 5-Fold Ministry Offices of Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor and Teacher.  This New Testament Church Government model will inevitably reduce the overwhelming and unhealthy local church ministry load of the Office of Pastor, by appropriately distributing the spiritual leadership throughout the 5-Fold Ministry Gifts /Offices, thus restoring God’s biblical divine order and spiritual government to the Body of Christ.

Dear family & friends in Christ,

All glory to God for this past weekend of supernatural breakthrough as the Spirit of intercessory prayer and travail rocked the CTFM Apostolic Centre in Hallam, Melbourne!  

Pastor Julius, a humble servant of God from Kenya, Africa, ministered the anointed Word of God with a mighty impartation of the Spirit of revival fire, as the CTFM worship team opened the heavens through prophetic worship!  Pastor Julius, an apostolic prophetic minister who travels to many nations to rise up the Body of Christ in intercessory prayer for the nations, greatly inspired God’s army to rise up into their God-given calling and destiny to reclaim Australia for Jesus!

As Holy Spirit hungry people received the Word of the Lord, suddenly it seemed like rivers of living water were flowing out of the innermost being of God’s beloved children as they soaked in His manifest presence, which caused a powerful release of deep intercessory prayer and prophetic travail for the transformation of Australia! Many entered into real spiritual warfare prayer for the first time and prayed in tongues for hours, as many others receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and prayed in tongues for the very first time!

The revival fire meetings went on for hours as everyone was absolutely drunk in the Spirit of God, with holy manifestations of weeping, laughing, and the gift of intercessory prayer for a unprecedented harvest of souls to be born-again, healed, delivered, and restored into the Kingdom of God. Much time was spent in intercessory repentance and corporate prayer for all churches and denominations to catch the Holy Spirit Fire of Revival!

Dear friends and family in Christ across the Nations of the World,

According to this video the President of Haiti cancelled Mardi Gras and called for 3 days of Prayer and Fasting. Over a million came, over 3,000 decisions for Christ were made, and over a 100 of those decisions were confirmed voodoo priests.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30rWm84z-zg 

Let’s continue to pray for an increasing nation shaking Holy Spirit revival in Haiti with unprecedented salvations, deliverances, healings, miracles, signs, and wonders, as the Kingdom of God comes in power, authority, righteousness, and glory!

May King Jesus be known and loved in Haiti and in all the earth!

“As a Christian, I believe there is a time that Christ will come back to receive His people home, and that’s just the basis of what the Bible shows, and that there will be an antichrist that arises during that time, and those that remain, to buy or sell anything, they will have to take on this mark. I don’t know that it’s a microchip.” -Virginia Del. Charles W. Carrico Sr.

(Richmond, Virginia)—Virginia’s House of Delegates passed a bill last week that will protect Virginians from attempts by employers or insurance companies to implant microchips in their bodies against their will.

Said Del. Mark L. Cole, the sponsor of the bill: “My understanding—I’m not a theologian—but there’s a prophecy in the Bible that says you’ll have to receive a mark, or you can neither buy nor sell things in end times. Some people think these computer chips might be that mark. I just think you should have the right to control your own body.”

According to the report, several states, including Wisconsin and Georgia, have approved similar bans.

“This is a great day for religious liberty in the United Kingdom…We give thanks to God for the outcome, and we continue to pray for our Government, as Scripture exhorts us to do, that God would bless their counsels.”

(London, England)—Christian Today has reported on the answer to many Christians’ prayers after the House of Lords on Monday defeated changes to a law that would have required church groups to hire homosexuals or others whose manner of life is inconsistent with their teaching.

Lady O’Cathain, whose amendment to the Equality Bill specified an exemption for religious groups to equality employment laws, said: “I know that very many Christians were praying that justice would prevail as the House of Lords voted on this important issue….We give thanks to God for the outcome, and we continue to pray for our Government, as Scripture exhorts us to do, that God would bless their counsels.” (Photo: House of Lords-BBC)

Isaiah 62:10 … Go thru, go thru the gates, Prepare the way for the people, build up, build up the highway, take out the stones

Blessings and love from a cooler and wetter Israel. 

Proverbs 13:34  -  Righteousness exalts a nation  -  My friend sent me this report about our PM,  Benjamin Netanyahu, and I was quite stirred to learn that out of his mouth he is declaring the prophetic word of the Lord before the nations.

Our PM Benjamin Netanyahu last week traveled to Poland to commemorate the 65th anniversary of liberation of Auschwitz. Speaking on the actual site of the Nazi death camp, the Prime Minister warned the world of new genocidal threats against the Jewish people and the importance of acting early enough to prevent such threats from coming to pass. In a stunning and remarkable moment, Netanyahu also declared to the people of Europe and the world that the prophecies of Ezekiel 37 have been fulfilled. The Holocaust, he said, represented the “dry bones” and “graves” of the Jewish people, and out of that horror the State of Israel was resurrected, just as the Lord said would happen through the Hebrew Prophet Ezekiel. Rarely has any world leader given a major address on an international stage declaring End Times prophecies from the Bible have come true. But that is exactly what Netanyahu did  …………..

Along with  that -  Netanyahu’s, 15-year-old son  has won the Jerusalem Bible Quiz in the Jerusalem Public School District. He will represent the district in the national Bible Quiz, to be held later this year. Avner, the younger of the Netanyahus’ two sons, outscored 50 opponents in the final round, scoring 98 out of 100 points.   Prime Minister Netanyahu said in an interview nearly a year ago that he often read the Bible together with his son.  His daughter from his first marriage, just last year gave birth to her first son, (the Netanyahu’s first grandchild) and I noticed that his daughter was dressed  as an orthodox religious  Jewish woman.

Could the God of Israel be using Bibi’s children to be instrumental in him knowing and understanding the times/seasons and prophecies thru the writings of the Tenach (Old Testament) ?  It seems that something has been deposited inside  of our PM concerning the truths, promises and prophecies for the land of Israel and the Jewish people, and he is being bold enough to declare it.

If you do not already pray for our Prime Minister, can I ask you to begin to pray each day for him.

Dear friends and family in Christ in Australia and around the World,

We’re forwarding the following article from Creation Ministries International for your ongoing prayers for an authentic revival outpouring of the Holy Spirit conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment, in the body of Christ in Australia and across the nations of the world, resulting in a unprecedented harvest of salvations, deliverances, healings, miracle, signs, and wonders in the Kingdom of God!

Revival? What is missing? by Don Batten

Many Christians today are praying for revival, and that is good. But something else is needed.

Throughout history, revival occurred with the faithful preaching of righteousness, sin, and judgment. Elijah, faced with 450 prophets of Baal, challenged the people in black and white terms: ‘How long will you waver between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow him: but if Baal is God, follow him’ (1 Kings 18:21).

The prophets to Israel and Judah detailed the people’s sins and called on them to repent. Continue reading ‘Revival, what is missing? Answer: Holy Spirit conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment’

Dear family & friends in Christ,

1) All glory and honour to the soon coming King of kings and Lord of lords, Christ Jesus!

What a glorious weekend as Pastor Daniel ministered on the Gold Coast at an AOG church with many also attending the revival meetings from other churches! 

10 precious souls (7 teenagers, 1 Jewish woman, who was also miraculously healed of cancer through prayer last October, and 2 Catholic men) were born-again into the Kingdom of God, bodies were supernaturally healed, and many lives transformed by a mighty demonstration of the Holy Spirit and the miracle working power of God! 

Last year in October at the same AOG church another woman with breast cancer was also healed after Pastor Daniel prayed for her.  We reported how she was scheduled for chemotherapy 2 days later, but God miraculously healed her. 2 ultrasounds, 2 mammograms and a 6 needle biopsy showed  that the cancer had disappeared. Because the medical doctors were so shocked, they wanted her to go through all the tests again 3 months later. Well, these repeat tests were performed a few weeks ago. Once again, all glory to God as there is still no trace of cancer! Pastor Daniel said, ‘I personally saw all the x-rays and it’s a amazing miracle. Before I prayed for her last October 2009, you could see all the tests clearly showing many lumps, but now the tests show no lumps at all!”This dear sister is the oldest surviving member in her family as 19 of her family members have died of cancer. She is currently collecting all the reports and data from the hospital in order to publish her miraculous testimony of being totally healed from cancer. She is continuing to have personal encounters with the presence of God.

Dear family & friends in Christ in Australia and around the World,

Maybe you are already aware of this very disturbing news for the family of Evangelist Benny Hinn, which I’m sure has shaken the global Body of Christ from all denominations and cultures, especially Christian families throughout the nations of the world.

We are so sad for this mighty man of God and his dear wife. Please continue to pray for them. 

Truly, Satan and his demonic hordes from hell have unleashed an unprecedented attack to destroy Christian marriages and families in these perilous end time battles before the 2nd Coming of the King of kings and LORD of lords!  Revelation 12:11

All Christian marriages and families need to unceasingly pray and spend more quality time together with one another and the Lord!
