    Send the Fire | Living in the Days of Joel’s Prophecy (TV Audio #610)

    (Filmed in Kazakhstan) Jesus was baptised in the River Jordan, and immediately the Holy Spirit came on Him. From that moment, the miracles began. All the miracles that happened came because of the power of God through the Holy Spirit. That Holy Spirit is here today, and I want you to understand the power. You know, I think one of the least-read books in the Old Testament is the book of the Prophet Joel. He prophesies in chapter two. He says, “Rejoice, people of Kazakhstan, Armenia, and wherever you're from.” He says, “The Lord has given you the first rain.” Now, in the Bible, rain is a picture of the Holy Spirit. He says, “I will give you the first rain, and then I will give you the last rain.” In verse 25, He says, “I will restore to you in Kazakhstan and in every country you’re from – I will restore the years the locust has eaten, and My people will never be ashamed.” He says it will come to pass in the last days that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh. Verse 30: “I will show wonders in the heaven and on the earth – pillars of fire and of smoke. The sun will be turned into darkness, the moon into blood.” All these things are prophesied that God will do. I believe that God has not yet shown all His power. All my life, I’ve been searching for the power of God. Oh yes, I received the Holy Spirit when I was 14 years old, but I’ve never had enough of the power of God. How does God show Himself? By miracles, by signs, by wonders!  Watch the YouTube version https://youtu.be/zFXr08kV3qs  For more information on the Ministry of David Hathaway https://www.eurovision.org.uk

    God sees your heart – and He wants to change your life (TV Audio #608)

    (Filmed in Almaty, Kazakhstan, 2026) I remember an experience in Siberia about 30 years ago. We had chartered an Antonov 24 with 25 members of our staff on board. I told the pilot, “I’m paying for this, so I want to fly it!” He put me in the pilot’s seat, disconnected the autopilot and said, “You are flying.” I loved it – but the other passengers were terrified! There is a spiritual lesson in that. God wants to take control of your life. He is the only One who can bring you safely through every difficulty. The Bible says, “God is love.” He is not only a judge; He loved us so much that He sent His Son to pay the price for our sin and set us free. But God wants more than our forgiveness – He wants our hearts. He wants our love. He wants our lives. I learned something about love when I was 21. I was preaching my first major evangelistic crusade when an 18-year-old musician gave her life to Jesus and joined my team. I fell in love with her and wanted to marry her. But I needed to know that she loved me as much as I loved her. She did. And for all these years, her love has never changed. She stood with me through cancer, prison and my years of ministry in the Soviet Union. That helps me understand something of God's love for us. He loves us individually and completely. He knows our difficulties, our failures and our needs. Yet He asks us to respond by giving Him our hearts. I have seen God's power work in extraordinary ways. In one Russian stadium, a crippled man came forward asking me to pray that he would stop smoking. My interpreter did not translate my prayer correctly. Instead, I prayed, “God, this man is crippled. Heal his leg.” The man thought I had prayed about his cigarettes. He threw them on the ground and, with his previously broken leg, jumped on them. Then he suddenly realised he had been healed. He ran the length of the football field and jumped over the barrier! God saw his heart – and God sees your heart. On another occasion in Ukraine, I asked everyone with broken bones or crippled limbs to come forward. Twelve people came. I prayed, and every one of them was healed. That day, hundreds experienced miracles. I have experienced God's healing in my own life. I have been healed of throat cancer and lung cancer. I have known hunger and spent a year in prison, but through every circumstance, God has remained in control. Even my release from prison was a miracle. Just three days later, I was preaching to 10,000 people in London. Over the following two years, I preached to around two million people and saw a quarter of a million come to Christ. God had taken control of the circumstances of my life. Whatever you are facing today – sickness, sin, trouble or fear – God knows your need. But He does not simply want you to come to Him for what He can give you. He wants your heart. Jesus first loved you. He loved you enough to give His life for you. Now He is calling you to give your life to Him. If you will seek Him with all your heart, you will find Him. Give Jesus your heart. Let Him take control of your life. “God, I give You my heart. You first loved me. You loved me enough to send Your Son to deliver me and forgive me. I give You my love, and from today I will live for Jesus and demonstrate my love for You. Amen.” God bless you.

    Childlike faith | Lessons from Luke 18 (TV Audio #604)

    Receiving the Kingdom like a child | Luke 18 reminds us that salvation is not earned by status, wealth, or religion, but received through simple trust in Christ. ‘People were also bringing babies to Jesus for Him to place His hands on them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, ‘Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.’’ (Luke 18.15-17, NIV.) In Luke 18, Jesus teaches that the kingdom of God must be received with the simplicity and trust of a child. This is not about age, but about the posture of the heart. The Gospel is not complicated religious rules which must be followed; it is faith expressed as humble dependence on God. Jesus then speaks with a ruler who asks, “What shall I do to inherit eternal life?” His question reveals something important: eternal life is not something we can purchase, earn, or secure through good works. It is an inheritance made possible through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. When Jesus says, “None is good, save one, that is, God,” He exposes the need we all share for forgiveness and salvation. The ruler had kept the commandments from his youth, yet Jesus identified the one thing still holding him back: his attachment to wealth. The issue was not simply money, but surrender. Jesus invited him to give to the poor, treasure heaven, and follow Him. The ruler went away sorrowful because what he possessed had quietly become what possessed him, (verse 23). Jesus’ words about the camel and the needle’s eye (verse 24) show how impossible salvation is in human strength. But He also gives the answer: “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.” Salvation is God’s work from beginning to end. Those who follow Christ may leave things behind, but what they receive is far greater: forgiveness now, God’s provision in this life, and everlasting life in the world to come, (verse 29-30). Jesus then points His disciples toward Jerusalem, where He would suffer, die, and rise again. They did not yet understand, but His death would open the way into the kingdom. The question remains for us today: are we willing to let go of what holds us back and receive eternal life with simple, childlike trust? (verses 31-24.)
