Miraculous power of God

Signs and wonders will follow those who believe. Over the last five days we experienced an 'open heaven' in the Jaarbeurs in Utrecht, where Nigerian ministers Victor Emenike, Sunday Adelajah and Prince Gideon demonstrated how to heal the sick and deliver the oppressed.

God is turning the world upside down: Nigerians are coming to Europe to break open the so called 'hard soil' with an astounding easyness. Sunday Adelaja came to Kiev, Ukraine, around 10 years ago and launched a church with just 7 people. Now he has the largest church in Europe with 20,000 people in Kiev alone, not including the 30 satellite churches. Healing and deliverance are an integral part of his ministry (after all it's an integral part of the great commission, see Mark 16) and show the people that Jesus is alive and His Kingdom is breaking through. Victor Emenike (insert) keeps on stressing: "Isn't Jesus wonderful? And it is sooo eeeasy!"

During the course of the campaign I made some observations:

1. They take a lot of time to worship Jesus and focus on Him. Out of this 'ministry to the Lord' they flow with the prophetic anointing, and minister healing and deliverance. Even before or halfway the preaching they will take time to worship Jesus, call on Him, lift Him high. This leaves no room for demonic powers and releases the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

2. Based on revelation they would corporately address specific demonic forces at work in the people who had come to the campaign. While publicly rebuking these demons (of fear, depression, confusion, etc.), the people involved often started manifesting demonically and were delivered.

3. They were continually tuned in to Gods Spirit and acted based on revelation. They did what they saw God doing.

4. They did not pray for healing, but declared healing. They did not pray for deliverance, but commanded the demons to get out. They did not pray about God's will for people, but prophesied destiny. I believe this follows out of the revelation. If you know what God's will is, there's not need to ask Him to do it, just declare (prophesy) that it will happen. The Nigerians were very aware of the spiritual authority they carry in Christ Jesus.

5. There is a corporate anointing that is only released when people are one in the Spirit and move in the anointing together. This was the first time that these three pastors ministered together, but also the first time that a campaign was co-hosted by a charismatic and a traditional leader. Is God saying something to the Church here?

6. They stressed that every believer can move in the miraculous and imparted the anointing to everyone who wanted. Of course this is not an automatic thing; impartation only wor B31 ks when the people who receive the impartation start acting based on it.

7. The level of faith and expectation was high, even electric. And God moved powerfully. One time more than 10 people got our of their weelchairs and were healed on the spot. A deaf and dumb girl was completely healed. The first word she said was "JESUS!" Many people with artrosis, cancer, deafness, and other illnesses were healed. The higher the level of faith and expectation, the more God can and will do.

It was good to meet some long-time-no-see friends, like Patricia Blue who introduced me to Victor Emenike. Many people from the Utrecht region were involved in the pastoral care and follow-up. All together the campaign raised our level of faith and I'm looking forward to what God will do as a result of that.

We have published these letter as a testimony, showing how people have experienced the power of God, and how they saw the Lord Jesus Christ changing their lives through the work of It Is Easy Ministries.
