In South Florida where a man was delivered from 12 years of torment in Jesus name!

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

Dear brothers and sisters in Jesus,

I am deeply concerned.

For more then twenty three years I have been serving King Jesus in proclaiming the gospel, driving out demons, and healing the sick. As a result of this ministry I have come in contact with many thousands who have sought deliverance from demons. For many they have sought spiritual assistance from the church and the church has turned them away (in many cases not even offering a word of prayer) so thousands suffered silently as Satan systematically destroy their lives without anyone intervening. I often encounter demons that tell me I am the first believer to deal with them after MANY generations in the family blood line. This MUST change. This is a spiritual crime to allow masses of people to suffer without spiritual intervention. We are determined to change this course of action in the power of Jesus!

Globally, through evangelistic meetings (some organized, some impromptu), through media exposure (international television opportunities, radio broadcast, books), through our deliverance meetings (public and private), through the starting of new churches (the church in Guatemala, for example, is now holding monthly deliverance services to set free those tormented by demons), we are determined to change the quality of living of those terribly afflicted, to rescue souls and stop the demonic invasion!

While in Florida I met up with a 37 year old man who had to fly into the States from the Cayman Islands so he can find relief from the demonic torment he had been enduring through for 12 years. He had reached out to churches and nobody was willing to take the time to pray with him. Though I had just finished a 2 week mission to the Middle East & Asia and could have easily bypassed this trip to Florida but I heard this man’s inner cries and was determined to see him free! God blessed our meeting and he is now free in Christ!

For several hours, we battled many demons including those that had been visiting him in his bedroom to terrorize him on a daily basis –we encountered the ones that appeared to him as fire, a dragon, a black cloaked figure, a predator creature, a phantom, and many other strange beings that were appearing in such forms to frighten him with the hopes of placing him in deep bondage. Their tactics worked but our loving God intervened into his life and for the first time in 12 years all of these demonic attacks will cease as these disgusting evil beings were cast out in Jesus name! He was amazed yet so happy to be finally liberated. He agreed to share his testimony on video and will be sharing his testimony and the many testimonies from those in Pakistan in the coming days!

Thank you dear friends of Jesus for interceding for me. This has been an incredibly fruitful trip unto the Lord Jesus!

I was just thinking how God has truly been gracious to me, He is allowing me to do the things my heart desires which is to follow Him as seen in Mark 1:38-39:

Jesus replied, “Let us go somewhere else—to the nearby villages—so I can preach there also. That is why I have come.” So he traveled throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.”

The mission of Jesus is so very simple that many simply miss it. He traveled, preaching, and driving out demons!

Demons Defeated in China!

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

Dear Friends of the Lord Jesus ~

I am currently in South Florida to conduct some private deliverance meetings. I am in the Sunshine State to point people to the Deliverer! I arrived here from Hong Kong earlier this evening where I had been involved in some personal ministry to those afflicted by demon powers. It is well after 2am and I still have not slept. I do not remember when I last slept in a bed, however, surprisingly, I feel strong in Jesus!

It has been a astonishing trip through the Middle East and the Far East these past few weeks. The gospel was proclaimed in two small Middle Eastern Gulf States –Qatar & United Arab Emirates– and then I journeyed on to the Islamic Republic of Pakistan where we held open air gospel meetings where signs and wonders accompanied the meetings —hundreds of souls were brought to the Savior, the demon possessed were liberated and those with various infirmities were healed, including a little boy who was a mute, in the name of Jesus! The meetings went so well that a number of churches (20 or so) have now joined our small association –the Church of the Cross. These churches will work together to assist me in conducting large evangelistic meetings in the months to come –so that we can touch lives in the here and now and for all of eternity. I would like to see this entire Islamic region exposed to the transforming power of Jesus for only Jesus can set them free!

From Pakistan I was a part of some memorable deliverance and healing ministry sessions that took place in Hong Kong, China. Moreover, I was honored to be part of the beautiful move of God, while in the small nation of Macau, a former Portuguese colony, located near Hong Kong, as I witnessed the Holy Spirit move on the heart of a dear brother who definitely feels a call to service to our King Jesus (please pray for him and his family)! 

Interestingly, upon my arrival to Hong Kong late Monday night, I was greeted by an evil spirit, within a precious saint, that threatened me, “Jay Bartlett! I am going to kill you!”

Mind you I had been in China for only a few hours before an evil demon surfaced, within a dear saint, threatening me.

“Jay Bartlertt, I am going to kill you!”

(Incidentally, around this time, a dear saint emailed me and reported that a demon jolted him by saying, “I hate Jay Bartlett!”) Weird stuff!

This dear lady’s husband, a dear brother of mine in the Lord, with me in support, drove this vile spirit out of her in Jesus name! This vile spirit is working in conjunction with many others.

Then over the next few days my brother and I stayed up nearly all night to pray for those afflicted. It could be exhausting but quite fulfilling as lives are being transformed for the here and now and for all of eternity. Some of the spiritual highlights:

  • Jesus is the Healer of the Brokenhearted. Two ladies who had suffered a great amount of spiritual pressure and torment experienced inner healing, one from Hong Kong, the other from Australia –received tremendous healing and deliverance- within our midst.
  • Jesus is the Deliverer. Three ladies experienced powerful deliverance, during our prayer sessions, that went early into the mornings. Two of these ladies who were present in our last prayer session, had dissociation, whereby the trauma and pain they experienced as little ones, caused great inner pain thereby bringing forth the fragmentation of the soul nature. We prayed for the little ones to reach out to Jesus. In fact, in one counseling session a demon within a the 5 year old part named FEAR was driven out in Jesus name!
  • Jesus Overcomes the Anti-Christ Spirit. A few of the ladies in our personal prayer sessions surfaced demonic spirits (some quite violent) named —Insanity, Anti-Christ, Jezebel and a host of many others. In one instance, during the exorcism, we spiritually tortured an Anti-Christ spirit by participating in holy worship -thus raising his hands so that he might acknowledge that Jesus was Lord over all. Just after a few moments of this, the demons cried out loudly: LET US OUT OF THIS BODY, WE CANNOT HANDLE BEING IN THIS BODY ANY LONGER! Those demons were driven out in Jesus name!

I could recount many other miracles that we were honored to be part of during my time in China but I am finally getting tired (which is good so I can sleep) so I better end this with a hear felt thank you for those who prayed for me. God sustained me! So many lives were touched by the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ! I am equally encouraged that my dear brother in Asia is being captured by the Holy Spirit for the work of the Kingdom! As I mentioned while in Macau and while traveling by boat from Macau to Hong Kong, my brother and I talked about the evident work of the Spirit of God upon his life. It is a strong feeling that God is performing something wonderful in his heart. In the coming days, we will see God raise this servant of the Jesus, up to preach, cast out demons and to heal the wounded! Please do pray for him.

Wonders in Pakistan: Mute Boy Healed, Tumors Gone, and Demons Departed!

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

Dear brothers and sisters in Jesus ~

God is so wonderful, loving, and caring towards us!

Just arrived back from our most recent meeting in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan where I have been holding various pastor meetings and open air meetings to preach the gospel. We have seen miraculous wonders in our midst and today was no different as the good news of Jesus Christ was proclaimed in a vibrant church here in the city of Lahore. The church was jammed packed, a standing room only crowd that enthusiastically received the message. I preached on the Ascension and Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ, taken from the texts found in Acts 1 and 1 Thessalonians 4. Throughout the service my message was interrupted with applause as the dear people were excited to hear from the Scriptures.

Many souls responded by receiving the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior for the very first time during the time of invitation. We also invited those needing healing and deliverance from evil spirits to raise their hands, approximately 40 hands went up quickly. In the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ we commanded diseases, infirmities, and demonic spirits to leave those who needed a healing touch from Jesus. Nearly all of them were dramatically healed and delivered! I had a number of them to come up front to testify –one lady shared with everyone she could literally feel the tumors that had caused so many problems within her body dissolve and testified of feeling zero pain–another lady testified of feeling suicidal spirits depart from her body immediately as we commanded the demons to leave the afflicted–another lady testified of being enveloped by the love of God that had manifested very strongly in the room and experienced a deep healing of her broken heart! So many were healed of various pains, sicknesses, and diseases–it was an amazing display of God’s love upon these dear people of Lahore.

Upon leaving the service a desperate father ran in front of me and begged me to pray for his son.

“Please pastor pray over him for he has never spoken a single word, he’s a mute,” the father urgently told me.

At first I was being rushed to the waiting van but felt compelled to stop to minister to this precious boy of perhaps 8 years of age. You could really tell his Dad was so desperate for a healing!

“In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I loose your tongue, SPEAK!” as I prayed over the mute boy.

“AMEN,” responded the little boy.

You should have seen the father –stunned but his disposition quickly turned to one of relief and happiness. Mind you this was a boy who never uttered one word until on this day! But, wait there’s more….

As I was about to enter the waiting van to depart for another meeting more people assembled around me so I conducted a impromptu street meeting–as I ministered to the afflicted. A mother brought her 20 year old daughter, who was cruelly vexed by witchcraft powers, that local witchdoctors had placed upon her. I ministered on to her and she immediately was freed from demons. She could FEEL them quickly depart from her body. She mentioned that she had been attending the last few nights of meetings hoping to meet me for prayer but was unable to get close as so many were rushing for deliverance prayers. So, my friends, God honored her determination, with a immediate release from these unholy powers that had bound her!

As I was leaving the area, that little 8 year old boy approached me with his father and said, “God bless you.” The little boy smiling away! Beautiful Jesus, just beautiful! It’s all Jesus, nothing within Jay Bartlett can cause a mute boy to talk, as to be honest with you since I was under the weather I was feeling quite weak but my Jesus was strong and that’s all that matters anyway!

I am currently at my host pastor’s home enjoying some sweet fellowship and just completed ministering to the mother in the home who was requesting healing prayer as she has a tumor. I believe in the coming days I will hear a good report about this too! Jesus heals and delivers!

This has been an incredible week in Pakistan. Many hundreds were saved, healed, delivered by Jesus. We are now developing a ministry plan to utilize the Qaddafi Stadium in Lahore for nationwide crusades. Many of the pastors are in agreement that the stadium will be easily filled and will probably have an overflow of many thousands. This will impact this Islamic nation for Jesus on multiple levels. We need to push back the forces of darkness with the clear presentation of the gospel with signs and wonders following! Please be in prayer!

On a personal note, I spoke with my wife last night and after prayer she shared with me my little boy Ford woke up the other night and said he was scared but that when he saw the picture of Jesus in his room, he said, “Everything was ok,” and he wasn’t scared anymore.

Oh, our precious Jesus, He delivers us from all our fears! He is there for you right now, He is there for my little boy and He is there for you –everything is going to be ok–when we look upon Jesus!

Though the enemy has drawn close the Holy Spirit has drawn closer to me! I know many of you have been praying for me in regards to my sleep. Well, I still average about 2 to 3 hours a sleep a night but I feel like I have slept for 8 hours! So your prayers are working! Love you guys in Jesus name!

Satan’s Brutal Attack On Our Secret Mission, Jesus Still Wins!

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

Dear Friends of Jesus,

It was 3:53am. I had just gotten to bed at 1:40am.

I was sleeping outside here at my host home and suddenly I hear the haunting sound of the Muslim prayers through the loudspeakers at the nearby Mosque. Unless you have heard their early morning cries I do not know how to best describe the ghoulish sound of their cries to Allah. Here in Lahore, Pakistan, even at 4am, many thousands throughout this massive city can be heard howling and groaning to Allah.

I wondered to myself what the heck is the Iman saying! The Holy Spirit instantly translated, spiritually, what he was crying out to the millions throughout the city.

“I am the spirit of darkness.”

Yes, in the natural realm one hears Arabic but in the spiritual realm the evil spirits within the Islamic leaders are the ones crying out from deep within their inner man!

Again I was burdened to intercede for these precious souls. With the many hundreds who have come to Jesus Christ in our meetings, Satan is furious with us, so, on this day, he started his brutal attacks.

At 7am, while laying upon the cot, still awake, a sand storm came into the area and covered me with dust then I was covered with numerous insects that began to swarm me. Then I started to lose my voice, and started experiencing stomach pains. This was the beginning of the personal war I would fight in Jesus name!

However, in the midst of this war, I was encouraged with the victory of Jesus! While having some tea with the grandfather that lives in the home, he shared with me that when I prayed over him upon my arrival to their home he felt the Holy Spirit touch his body in a unusual holy manner and instantly bringing healing into his body. He shared with me that he had been in pain for many years and had been suffering greatly however, now Jesus touched him and he was so happy!

So, while the enemy was trying to hinder, God was at work! His work moves forward!

Later on, a number of pastors joined me in setting up a massive open air crusade in a remote village of Pakistan. Due to the security risks the local pastors begged me to sit in the very back seat of the van that had their curtains drawn so that no one would be able to see me and the local pastors surrounded me to ensure I would not be seen as we drove through various towns on some very busy streets, filled with the masses, on the way to the village where Christ would be preached. Upon my arrival to this remote village, I was whisked into a walled compound where again I could hear those Islamic calls for prayers. This meeting was secretly planned to not give too much of an advance notice to those who would like to disrupt the meetings.

Within minutes of my arrival to preach the gospel a horrible thunderstorm came into the area and chased all of those coming to the meeting away. This was a direct attack from the enemy as precious people traveled in from all over Pakistan to attend this massive tent meeting where thousands would be gathering to hear the gospel and to receive prayers for healing and deliverance! The storms were relentless, power lines were taken down, roads flooded, there were mudslides,and general havoc. As we escaped the area we had to traverse through some bad conditions including walking through mud, human and animal waste. The foul stench was awful! As we were leaving the village the Islamic calls for prayers were being offered. It makes you wonder if there was a connection…the Muslims were cursing the meeting and bringing about this weather disruption through spiritual means. We rebuked the storms but we will be back and we will hold this open air meeting…so Jesus WINS!

More Miracles: Powerful Moves of the Holy Spirit within Pakistan

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

My dear friends of Jesus ~

I just can’t wait to show you the video coverage we have been able to capture on this most recent mission to Asia! Stunning testimonies of God’s supernatural power!

We just completed another open air meeting in Lahore, Pakistan and the miraculous wonders of God are increasing each night. I know many of you were praying as I could FEEL them in a very tangible way! No other way to describe it except that the Holy Spirit is answering your prayers with His very holy presence in our midst bringing about wonderful miracles of redemption, healing and deliverances. My host pastor has been sadden to hear that many ministries and churches have sort of discarded Pakistan in favor of the more free prosperous nations of the world. As many of you are aware Pakistan among many other Asian nations in this region of the world are greatly dominated by idolatrous religions such as Islam, Hinduism, and paganism. Pakistan is 97% Muslim, persecution of the church is increasing –a dear pastor I have fellowshipped with here showed me the “marks of Jesus he literally bears on his body, as his arms were burned by fanatical Muslims in a small village. His crime? Carrying a Bible in public– however in the midst of the persecution the church is becoming stronger. I see it in their faces! It’s one of inner strength, one of inner peace in the midst of great spiritual depravity! This pastor with great spiritual fortitude stated, “We believers in Pakistan are warriors,” this is inmner confidence in what Christ can do in the midst of great evils that surround them. Their living testimonies strengthen me to press onward to the call of Christ to the ends of the world!

TONIGHT! Jesus Prevailed! I was given incredible liberty to preach the gospel like I have rarely experienced. I believe it is a direct result of your holy prayers! Tonight I brought a message: Jesus, Savior, Healer, and Deliverer. Within the hundreds that gathered in the open air meeting I estimate 90% of the unbelievers, including a number of Muslims, surrendered to Jesus Christ as Lord! They would interrupt my message, a number of times, to clap out of joy in hearing about Jesus and the simple truths that He is indeed a Savior, Healer, and Deliverer! What beautiful people, what receptive hearts! I think the people really warmed up to me as I wore the traditional Pakistani dress in this meeting and will continue to do so. I have become one of them.

The testimonies of healings and liberation from evil spirits were dramatic. People testified of being healed of various diseases, pains, and afflictions. One young lady in her early 20’s had been demon possessed for years stated she felt the demons exit her body quickly upon command in Jesus name! She testified with tears of her dramatic deliverance. The people were clapping and shouting with great joy in their hearts! One man in his 50’s had been battling various cruel painful infirmities for more then 15 years was dramatically healed in Jesus name. What was amazing was that God placed my face in his mind several days ago and when he heard from some friends that an American was in town to pray healing in this area he immediately came to this meeting as he wondered if the face that God showed him was indeed my face. Well, it was! God healed this precious Pakistani brother! I captured many of these powerful testimonies on video and will be sharing them with everyone!

In Islamic Pakistan: Over 100 Souls Won to Christ in 1st Meeting!

Sunday, May 29th, 2011

Dear brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus,

I have arrived safely in Lahore, Pakistan, after traveling over a course of two days, stopping briefly over in the small Middle Eastern nation of Doha, Qatar, where I presented gospel materials. From Doha I traveled onward to Lahore. I was warned by many not to come to Pakistan for it was too dangerous to visit at this time. Even now as I type this message I hear the chilling and stirring Islamic call for prayers that is heard throughout this Islamic city of nearly ten million. Their cries for prayers remind me to pray for their precious souls to experience the salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you have heard these calls for prayers you know what I speak of –the loud cries offered up to Allah– are spiritually charged with dark powers. One’s spirit man is deeply grieved. This is why God sent me to this Islamic land to bring the message of the cross of Jesus Christ so that precious Muslims can experience true peace with the living God!

As soon as I arrived to Lahore I was greeted by my host pastor Rizwan Fazal and his beautiful family. We quickly left the airport and checked into my room. I could not sleep and have not been able to sleep for days. On the very day I arrived I held a number of private meetings with various pastors that will be aligned with the Church of the Cross (numbering about twenty churches across this region, they will be joined with us in the mission to bring the gospel to Islamic Pakistan).

Later in the evening we held a powerful open air meeting in the Green Down area of Lahore and the streets were filled with souls hungering for the good news of Jesus. The atmosphere was electric and filled with anticipation and our Lord did not disappoint! I stepped on the platform around 10pm and through the night I preached the gospel, prayed for the sick, broke curses, and cast out evil spirits in the name of Jesus. Over 100 souls in this very first meeting received Jesus Christ as even before I called people to repentance the precious Pakistani people were already raising their hands indicating they were ready to call upon Jesus to be saved! Amen! This is truly exciting just writing this…I am here in this land to bring the gospel and the good news has gone forth. On balconies, in homes, in street shops, on the outlying streets people were listening on as I proclaimed the gospel. We set up massive loud speakers and here we were in the late hours of the night sharing the Lordship and victorious position of King Jesus!

Then during the time for healing and deliverance prayers the precious people RUSHED to the platform to receive a healing from Jesus. There were mothers and fathers placing their sick and afflicted children on the platform to be healed. They were that desperate! While I was praying for one, a dear mother and father would shout and plead with me to pray for their sick little one. It was touching! My heart went out to the precious people. Many were healed of various afflictions…one lady who came to the meeting with the assistance of others was dramatically healed of her infirmity instantly, she testified on stage that as soon as she heard the prayers of healing being offered to God, she was supernaturally touched by our loving God and was able to walk unassisted to the stage to testify of her miracle…another lady for years had been experiencing serious joint pain was healed in Jesus name…those with various sicknesses and pains were healed…many were freed from demon powers on this night also. By midnight I was drenched with sweat and still praying for the masses. Even when I left people stayed on in the area for fellowship. To God be praised–Jesus was proclaimed in power in this Islamic land!

The sights and sounds of Lahore are rich and varied –seeing on the side of the road the little monkey with a little cap on his head riding on a goat, going through the late night military checkpoints, hearing the eerie sounds of the Islamic calls for prayer, the shouts onto Jesus during our crusade meeting– these make traveling for Jesus so enriching! However, the spiritual forces of evil have kept me on guard, ever so watchful. It was strongly suggested that I leave the place I obtained a room at and stay with the pastor’s family, which I have done. There are times God tells you to move, we need to move!

I appreciate your very kind emails and prayers. There is a dear brother –he knows who he is– who provided some emergency assistance (and much needed prayers) while here in Lahore and I want to thank him again. Your love for the gospel is evident and allows for the gospel to go forth in difficult regions of the world thus saving precious souls for all eternity! Many hundreds, all over the globe, receive these email updates, and I am very happy to hear from many of you. Your holy prayers are sustaining me and my precious family in Dallas.

I have more open air meetings planned for tonight, Saturday, and two on Sunday before heading on to Hong Kong and mainland China! We are believing more souls to receive he gift of eternal life in Jesus Christ! These meetings are being held in different areas of Lahore.

I do have one special prayer request –for sound sleep– I have slept, perhaps, 5 hours total since Tuesday. I slept last night outside, the heat is quite intense and power goes on and off throughout the day. I went to bed at 2am and was up at 4am as the Muslim Imans were calling for prayer on loudspeakers throughout Lahore which obviously stirred my spirit and caused me to pray! Appreciate your intercessions.

We are also devloping an evangelistic plan that will certaintely have an impact in the Muslim/Arab world as we are planning on massive gospel meetings to draw 40,000 to 50,000 a night. The pastors and churches are prepared and are pleading with me to conduct these gospel meetings to impact the Muslim world for Christ and for future generations to be free!

Trite, Death, Suicide, Legion, Satir Driven Out in Jesus Name!

Saturday, May 14th, 2011

Dear Friends of Jesus ~
 
Last night we held our monthly public deliverance service and for nearly seven hours we literally drove out thousands of demonic spirits, that had been tormenting precious souls, in the name of Jesus! Dear Friends of Jesus ~
 
Last night we held our monthly public deliverance service and for nearly seven hours we literally drove out thousands of demonic spirits, that had been tormenting precious souls, in the name of Jesus! Demons named Trite, Death, Suicide, Legion, Satir, and thousands of others were expelled in the name of Jesus! Though we were small in number, everyone who attended this most recent meeting came from out of town (this isn’t an uncommon occurrence as we see many who attend our meetings arrive in from out of town). In fact, one dear lady in her late 40’s by the name of Linda was simply browsing the web looking for some spiritual assistance the day before and came across this meeting. She was determined to be at the meeting and our loving God honored her determination with deliverance.
 
As a little girl she witnessed her older sister playing with the Ouija Board. Not only were they involving themselves in necromancy but she also observed her sister and some of her friends playing the occult game “light as a feather” whereby through the use of chanting they were able to levitate another girl about 2 feet off the ground. This caused much terror to enter her 8 year old heart and her heart instantly broke due to witnessing this very traumatic satanic activity. These fearful events opened doors to powerful demonic beings that invaded her life. These dark forces were confronted in Jesus name!
 
“I’m Legion,” the spirits revealed when commanded to reveal their identity.
 
I wanted to know if these spirits were holding on to any other spiritual rights and commanded the demons to tell me.
 
“Yes, her grandfather, on her father’s side, possessed great hatred, pride, and used money to gain attention for himself, these sins allowed us the right to enter his body and we have traveled through the bloodline, to Linda, and nobody has told us to leave.”
 
There was more….
 
“Her husband has problems with lust and pornography and others of our kind have entered her as a result of his sins.”
 
Mind you, Linda, was a member of the Baptist church and never been exposed to the ministry of deliverance until recently as a result of providentially coming across our websites. She had been plagued with demonic attacks and was desperately wanting the torment to end so she readily joined me in prayer destroying the generational sins of the family and the sex spirits from her husband in the name of Jesus! God answered by breaking these curses off her life and set her free. We commanded the demons to leave and they quickly left her body! She was quite peaceful and relaxed afterwards.
 
My heart goes out to the many saints that remain in churches silently suffering, as most churches are not providing the opportunity for precious souls to find liberation through the ministry of casting out of demons in Jesus name! We are speaking of multiple millions who are demonized who are needing relief from their inner torment! God help us to reach these beautiful people with the message of freedom found only in the love of Christ!
 
We also ministered to a young lady who had been considering killing herself. An evil spirit by the name of “Suicide” surfaced and boasted how he was the one attempting to get her to commit suicide.
 
“What rights do you have to this lady in Jesus name,” I wanted to know.
 
“Because of her recent divorce we have brought much pain into her life and and she has desired to die.”
 
So sad! So much hurt! We prayed for this precious lady and God began to take away the inner pain and deep hurt. She experienced healing and we drove out these suicide spirits in Jesus name!
 
There were other demons that had entered her life as a result of generational participation in satanic ceremonies. These evil spirits were cast out in Jesus name!
 
After nearly seven hours of teaching, leading the saints in Holy Communion, and ministering deliverance we dismissed everyone. We are thankful for the opportunity to assist God’s people and to extend God’s wonderful grace to those who attended.

New York Times Square Injustice: Criminally Charged by Preaching Jesus!

Saturday, May 14th, 2011

Dear partners and friends of the gospel,
 
Where do I begin? I am currently ministering in the New York City area and the fires of the Holy Spirit are impacting many thus the enemy is also at work trying to hinder!
 
Yesterday, Satan hindered me greatly. My first flight to NYC was cancelled, I missed my second flight as a result of my airport shuttle running more then an hour late and then finding themselves lost (dispatch was so confused that they nearly gave up and simply refunded my monies for the services). Then on the shuttle we were once again nearly involved in a freeway collusion! 
 
Upon arriving to New York City I hailed a taxi and for nearly three hours we drove around and around looking for the hotel (the trip should have lasted no more then 40 minutes). Mind you, this is a NYC veteran taxi driver who could not locate my hotel. We must have stopped and asked for directions ten times with no one able to assist us. It was pathetic. It was surely a test of my patience. By God’s grace alone I maintained my composure. Here it was 1am, I’m tired, hungry, and recalling all the crazy events of my life just in the past several months and was about to explode with frustration but then I just chuckled within and thanked God for this wonderful opportunity to share with my Western African Muslim taxi driver the good news of God’s wonderful grace and love found at the cross of Jesus!
 
“I am messed up in the head,” remarked my driver as we missed my proper exit what seemed to me to be the hundredth time.
 
“I can’t believe this! What is going on!” he asked himself out loud! Then he spewed out profanities upon himself for not being able to focus!
 
“Don’t worry about,” I encouraged him, though deep down I was again about to explode out of extreme frustration!
 
(I was texting my precious wife at the time and she was encouraging me to just stop wherever I was at and check into any hotel, she was urging calm too 🙂 sensing my frustration)
 
I wondered to myself why do these things happen to me??? The answer is quite obvious…the enemies of the Savior do not desire for the gospel to go forth and that is what I’m about –proclaiming the death, burial, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ– and the devil attempts to hinder along the way! The apostle Paul, once tried to enter Asia for some ministry and he was hindered “again and again” by Satan! This is part and parcel of the Christian experience, the enemy will hinder at times, but Jesus always prevails!
 
I am pleased to report you friends that Jesus once again came through victorious! I made it safely to the hotel and had the beautiful opportunity to lead Samyeh, a Muslim from Mali, to the Lord Jesus Christ. He was very enthusiastic about surrendering his life to Jesus and I am rejoicing in this new birth into the kingdom of God! Finally around 3am I entered into a much needed sleep and then woke up several hours later…
 
NYPD & Times Square Open Air Preaching
 
Earlier today I stood before many thousands in Times Square and in Manhattan preaching the gospel. Armed with my little audio equipment and the Scriptures I preached God’s love and the need for precious people to repent and place their faith in Jesus! At first I was given great liberty to proclaim the good news and again only eternity will reveal how many prayed with me the prayer of salvation but I can honestly say many souls were captivated by the open air preaching! Moreover, I was approached, filmed, and interviewed by Russian Television & the global news organization Reuters. These opportunities alone gave me the opportunity to reach countless people through print and visual media. Then I was approached by the NYPD and inquired if I obtained a permit to proclaim the gospel in public. Having preached, in public, in cities across America and the world, I was astonished that I was required to possess a permit to share Jesus in public, right here in the States. I told them the truth that I did not possess a permit. I was formally cited and charged, on 47th and 7th street in the heart of New York City, with a “Criminal Court Offense” for sharing Jesus and summoned to appear at a Criminal Court on West 54th street on July 19th 2011. I was stunned and to be honest with you a little discouraged.
 
Pakistani Consulate Difficulties & Mighty Miracles in Guatemala City
 
In less then a week’s time I am scheduled to be in Pakistan to minister (and to visit the beautiful historical sites of the nation) but my VISA has not been approved at this time. We need your prayers, for God’s favor. The consulate is concerned about any possible “preaching” I would be engaged in. I spoke with the Pakistani consulate today and again they raised concerns about my activities in Pakistan! I can hear it their the consul’s voice. I might need to reschedule this Pakistan ministry trip and just complete the second half which includes traveling to Hong Kong and mainland China. Please pray for me and the trip. God bless you dear ones!
 
The miraculous works at the Church of the Cross in Guatemala City are astonishing as demons are being cast out and people are being healed in nearly every service! Evangelist Adolfo Fong Luna and his wife are doing a superb job serving Jesus! Please pray for them and their work for the gospel. We commend them in the faith! Here’s a recent report from him:
 
“Dear brother Jay: I have wonderful news to share, at our prayer meeting came a family for the first time, a family of four, they have two kids, a boy and a girl Jennifer and Mauricio, they had Bronchitis. We pray for them and instantly the Lord healed them, praise be to Jesus!  He is the same today, he still in the liberation, healing and saving business.”
 
Adolfo and I are also developing a Bible and Practical Ministry School to be based there in Guatemala City that will be a base to train students from all over Latin America with the spiritual weapons to go forth to fulfill the Great Commission. We have already received interest and a body of students have been gathered. We will formally start the school in the Summer of 2011. It is my desire to train the Body of Christ in the works of the kingdom so the gospel may go forth to the world.
 
Volumes, Radio Presentations and Such
 
As some of you may be aware some of my volumes on the subject of the “hidden life in Christ,” the deliverance ministry, evangelism, and the miracles of God are being distributed by the global book retailer Barnes & Noble (among other distributors). Though I am not a trained writer per se nor do I feel necessarily gifted in writing, I simply write as God has given me a burden, to reach the masses, with information, that largely the Body of Christ ignores. Books seems to me have a life of their own and can be passed down generationally thus impacting untold numbers in years to come! This truly excites me. God has used the “weak things” of the world, such as my writings, to reach a global audience. Praise be to God! I checked the reports and many hundreds are obtaining the volumes and being blessed! With your key partnership, my brothers and sisters, we are reaching the nations of the world with the message of liberation found in the love of Jesus! Amen!
 
In regards to the radio presentations I have drastically scaled down the program due to my travel schedule and I produce a new program once a week or so now. Do check out some of the presentations (especially when I’m on LIVE which varies through the week) as many are still listening in (last time I checked over 20,000 have listened in since the inception of the broadcast in October 2010). In fact, recently a young person contacted me and said he had been listening to the program and found them to be very informational and edgy with the exploration of topics the Body of Christ simply ignores.
 
Television Opportunity
 
As many of you are aware I have been afforded an opportunity to appear on a variety of television programs in various nations of the world, over the years and have largely turned down the offers as I am not a television personality type. I would much rather minister to the slums and the spiritually dark regions of the globe unnoticed by man! But the fact is because of what I do –preaching Jesus and casting out demons– draws attention. Thus yesterday I received a email from a producer for the series OUR AMERICA with Lisa Ling which airs on the Oprah Winfrey Network who is interested in talking with me about a project. As you know Oprah Winfrey has a HUGE audience and we could literally reach many millions but I am walking ever so prudent with this. Please be in prayer with me. God bless you

Close to 10,000 Souls Reached for Jesus

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011

Dear Friends of Jesus,

May God’s peace and and comforting presence be upon your home and hearts this day!

It is nearly 3am here in London and wanting to thank all of you for your effectual prayers as the Holy Spirit moved powerfully in our midst as we conducted a number of open air gospel meetings yesterday afternoon. Moreover, God was pleased to extend His holy power and deliver at our small public deliverance service in the evening.

A dear minister friend of mine and I felt deeply burdened (this burden has been on my heart for many months) to travel to the Chalk Farm underworld area of Central London to preach the good news of Jesus!Yesterday we traveled to this area known for it’s eclectic dark environment. Many, many thousands gathered to get drunk, indulge in the drug scene, to mingle in the many clubs that were peppered throughout this area. The streets were filled with tattoo & piercing parlors, occult shops, bars, and nightclubs (one club advertised itself as “Dark Angel” whereby they placed a woman mannequin in a mock crucified position). The area was filled with demonic nefarious themes and I was told that churches avoided the area due to intense persecution. These precious souls looked so despaired of life. What a wonderful place to bring a message of hope and love but at a cost though!

For hours, we distributed gospel booklets and we held a number of open air meetings, where we set up a meeting on the streets and proclaimed the gospel. In each meeting we estimated about 1,000 to 2,000 people gathered to hear the gospel being preached! Many were utterly stunned, shocked to hear a message of faith on these darkened streets of Chalk Farm. You could see it on their faces! So, this unique presentation brought many curious onlookers that listened on attentively as I shared the love of God!

As I proclaimed the gospel, I was harassed, verbally assaulted, and was threatened. I would estimate more then a hundred people cursed me with loud profane words, harassing me and even several took hold of my microphone and cursed our precious Savior out loud! One man in his 50’s kept on repeating, “the devil will arise, the devil will arise, the devil will arise,” for more then 20 minutes to counter my proclamation that Jesus is Lord!”

I need to be honest with you dear brothers and sisters even though I have been jailed, detained, stabbed, threatened with death hundreds of times, mocked, chocked, kicked, hit, have had objects thrown at me, and many other life threatening events, I have never experienced, though, a mob surround me, cursing me and our loving Lord! The vile disgusting words they shouted about Jesus would deeply sadden you. As I proclaimed Jesus, there were a few times my friend was deeply concerned about my welfare as a number of large men surrounded me in a violent rage on the verge of assaulting me. However, God restrained these evil men! The Holy Spirit allowed me great liberty to preach. I was very much at peace! Yes, there were many who hated the message but there were thousands who listened on! In fact, in one meeting, 3 young youth came to me wanting to receive Jesus Christ as Lord! It was beautiful. Yet, in another meeting a group of young ladies came to my support and wanted to also declare to the crowds that Jesus loves everyone! So, yes, the devil was quite active but Jesus conquered and we estimate close to 10,000 were impacted with the gospel during our mission to Chalk Farm. The crowds were massive and it was amazing to see the interest as people stood and listened! I led the crowds in prayers of salvation so only eternity will reveal how many called upon Jesus!

Then from the massive crowds we moved on to our very small evening deliverance service where only a handful attended but our Lord was present and He delivered a precious soul from many demons. Ebo, a African man, attended this service, he had earned a MD (and nearly finished with a PhD) but was unable to practice medicine due to the demonic attacks he had been suffering through for many years. Ebo’s family were polygamists, his father a witchdoctor who forced young Ebo (he said he was perhaps only 7 or 8 years of age) to endure years of pagan rituals whereby his body was sliced and his blood flowed. These demonic practices opened Ebo up to strong demonic powers that brutally attacked him. We dealt with a number of witchcraft spirits and they were driven out in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ! As God healed him, he exclaimed, “I am so happy.” Those words were backed up with peace on his face! God is so gracious my friends!

God to be praised! Appreciate your prayers. God answered with mighty miracles and powerful protection! Amazingly, the London Metropolitan Police didn’t interfere either though, again, they stood by watching on!

Oppostion to the Gospel and Deliverance Ministry, Jesus Prevails!

Tuesday, May 3rd, 2011

Dear Friends of Jesus ~

 I am currently in London, UK and we have experienced some great opposition to the gospel, which does not surprise me, as most of Western Europe along with many Western nations are in spiritual decline and resistant to the gospel message. That’s probably a understatement as the resistance is spiritually charged with demonic powers. Though there has been resistance the good news of Jesus has been proclaimed to the masses through open air preaching —many hundreds are hearing the gospel— in spiritually dark Europe and this I rejoice in!

 When I arrived I was involved in a small prayer meeting where we participated in Holy Communion and fellowship. I was told by a good friend, who ministers within the Salvation Army and who hosts a radio program geared at reaching Europe, that it was now illegal to preach Christ in public without a “license” in the UK. The saints shared their concerns of the spiritual state of the UK and of the mass invasion of Islam in this once strong Christian land that produced great evangelists such as William Booth, John Wesley, and Smith Wigglesworth.

 Less then 12 hours later I found myself conducting “illegal activities” in North London in front of the largest Islamic Mosque in the region where I preached the gospel in a open air meeting. During the day I proclaimed the message of the cross at a number of preaching points throughout the city. Armed with my audio equipment and Scriptures, I held open air meetings (along with distributing gospel literature), despite the threat of being arrested and under the watchful eye of the London Metropolitan Police (at one point I was under their close surveillance but God granted me favor and they did not intervene, surprisingly).

In front of the Islamic Mosque, in a predominately Islamic area of the city, I preached with power, and many listened on with great interest –from the streets, from the nearby parks, from the bus stop, from the store fronts, from cars, from buses– the gospel was grabbing the interest of many. I was told that conducting an open air street meeting was very rare and was not something many had experienced. The Londoners listened on however the Muslim Turks were angry at the message that Jesus is alive!

 “Jesus is NOT alive, He is dead.”

 That was shouted at me with great aggression and hatred by many young Muslim Turks. Not only did they disagree with the the fact that Jesus has been raised from the dead but they were determined to drive me out from preaching the gospel. During my down times of the open air preaching, in which I engaged the lost in conversations about Jesus, a small group of Muslim Turks approached me with demonic fury and yelled and spouted out profanities about our precious Savior. They cursed the Lord out loud for all to hear. They were so angry at the gospel being proclaimed even on a one to one basis. The dear elderly British lady that I had engaged in conversation with at that moment, was shocked to hear such rage and I could easily tell she was unsettled by these young Turks rage. This opposition got her attention though! So not only were the local police watching me but the Muslims were also. They would drive by slowly and stare with hatred trying to convey the message that I better watch myself or else…

Most of the Western church is asleep as most churches are unaware of the spiritual invaders that have surround them. There are enemies of the cross that seek to dominate and destroy. The only counter offensive is the love and power of Jesus! Only Jesus can melt hearts and capture souls! This what occurred within this precious British lady by the name of Jean. She had grown up in the church, attending many liturgical services but confessed she did not know Jesus personally, had not experienced the personal grace, mercy, and love of God within her heart! So I shared God’s wonderful grace and peace and her heart melted. This very reserved British lady invited Jesus into her heart for the first time and peace was seen on her face! This my friends is why I proclaim the gospel in order for people like Jean to experience PEACE with God!

More open gospel meetings are scheduled for today and we are holding a very small public deliverance service tonight in a small local hotel room. Thank you for praying! I also ministered to a young lady and her husband who are terribly afflicted by demonic powers. As soon as the husband and I began to pray over her evil spirits manifested and literally caused her to leave the meeting area. We remain hopeful that God will give us another opportunity to minister to her as this lady has come so far in her walk with Jesus but these last remaining demons are being stubborn and we need your prayers for her! Prior to my arrival many of these demonic spirits threatened me with death hoping I would not travel to the UK to intervene in this lady’s life. They have failed. The power of Jesus is greater! I arrived safely and was able to minister in Jesus name!
