A lady listening to our audio series on kingdom healing reports: �My friends 3 year old grandson has a non malignant brain tumour behind his ear and required surgery to remove the substance within. Anyway when we heard this horrible story some months ago many prayed for him.....

The good news is that the tumour has shrunk from egg size to a grape size and his mother is going to ask the surgeon if an operation is still necessary. I am full of expectancy that it will not be.�

Just had a wonderful weekend teaching the kingdom of god in a pub. Enthusiastic audience. A local clergyman there dropped something tremendous on me in the lunch break.

He said that raising awareness of the healing ministry is fine, but if the Church half understood the nature of the kingdom she preaches then she would naturally consider that everything else she does, worship services of all kinds, weddings, funerals, baptisms etc, she would consider all these as merely individual expressions of Christs healing ministry to the world.

My heart sang!

So bless you, Vicar, I will pinch that comment and use it this year. I have three important lecture tours in UK and USA this year and I will use that a lot to get kingdom perspective!

I fancy coordinating an annual International Week of prayer in support of the Church�s Christian Healing Ministry. The whole world of prayer praying for 7 topics over 7 days finishing on St Lukes Day. Topics like more church awareness, more people to get interested, more ways of effective ministry etc.

Love to hear your comments. Mike

I'd just like to thank you so much for your timely words and audio recordings. They are such a blessing to me and are giving me such a lot to think and pray about...please keep it up!



God bless all the wonderful work you are doing and encouraging us to do! A

I recently had a strong note from a church minister telling me that he had been to listen to some famous speaker or other who said that only ten percent of those he prayed for were healed. The man who wrote said how thrilled he was to hear someone who actually preached reality.

He went on to suggest that my preaching that Jesus in the gospels never refused to heal anyone shows a great disconcert for the disappointment in the pew. We should, he suggested, tell folks how it is, that god only does it sometimes. And not very often. That makes pastoral issues a lot easier to handle, he says.

Now, I�ve spent years teaching that God has had no problem at all with us since Calvary and that it is the church who has difficulty receiving grace. That�s 180 degrees different.

Which do we think is reality? Is it what is taught in scripture or is it a theology bent to fit our experiences? In matters of healing, these two can be very different. I so wish the church would choose the scriptures.

If only the church could be more positive about this. It�s going to be a lot easier finding ways to receive more easily than it will be finding ways to manipulate ~god to do more!

Please let me know what you think about this. Mike
