Mission team members write Testimonies of Healing and Deliverance Calling Practical Aid

"The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field" (Luke 10:2, NIV)

"Jesus facilitated spiritual formation in his disciples by introducing them to life situations and then helping them debrief their experiences. He taught them to pray. He did not lead them in a study course on prayer. He took them on mission trips; he didn't read books to them on the subject of missions...." Reggie McNeal, The Present Future: Six Tough Questions for the Church" pg 85

CALLED TO MISSION? .... THINKING ABOUT MISSION?....

Heavenfire is about equipping, empowering, encouraging and evangelising . It is not 'my' ministry. If you are planning a mission to Andhra Pradesh and would like to make some contacts, receive a little advice, or just a chat, email or phone me. If you have felt the Lord's call to his mission field, but don't know where to begin, do the same.

Once you have experienced revival, seen miracles and the deliverance of the oppressed, your faith level will never be the same. Fan your gifting into flame (2Tim 1:6), recapture the fire that you were first 'salted' with as a believer (Mk 9:49-50), become as all believers ought to be - baptised with the Holy Spirit AND WITH FIRE (Lk 3:16). Email me if I can help you.

Mission team members write ...

Sister Ajoke Ayonrinde (Nottingham, England) wrote before the Oct 2004 mission: When the opportunity arose to join the Heavenfire mission, I thought "it sounds great" but obstacles - finances and time off work - needed to be be overcome. God's grace has provided for me" After the mission, Ajoke writes: "Praise the Lord for this wonderful trip, and I praise the Lord for the wonderful opportunity God has given me to work with you and to see His miracles done in India. ... I feel like a different Christian from that which entered India. ... I have learnt so much more about the power of God & his mercy ... God has brought out even more in me".

Pastor Elfed Godding (Cardiff, Wales) was part of the mission team in November 2003. He writes: My return visit to Tenali in November 2003 proved astounding. The ministry of **** [name removed because of increasing persecution of Christians)has grown significantly over the last four years from around six networked churches to over thirty. This is due both to [Name] and [Name]faithful persistence in prayer and pastoral support of the pastors and to the regular visits of my colleague Chris Wade. Once again we were privileged to witness the power of God in conversions, healings and deliverance and to be amazed by the firm vision and humble and faithful service of the pastors associated with ****. It is a privilege to work alongside such men and women of faith.

Testimonies of healing and deliverance:

The testimonies that follow come from our ministry trips. They are changed regularly, so be sure to check back for more! All were given by the individuals themselves, in conversation with their Pastors in the days following our visits. Village names and minor details have been removed to protect the individuals, and some spelling corrected where necessary, but otherwise they remain as supplied to us. Praise God for his wonderful works!!

In their own words...
Devils that fled away; female: age, 30.
I have been facing many mental struggles for the last two years due to evil powers around me. I had no mental peace and always unconscious due to demonic pressures. My husband left me but my mother not gave up me. When she heard about Bro Chris visit, she brought me to the church. When he put hands upon me immediately a shocking feeling entered me and hit me pleasantly. As a wonder the whole body became a very light and I am absolutely delivered from the demons that were bothering me since last two years. Now I am so happy. My husband returned home again and loving me. This is all the miracle of God. Now I am a true believer of Jesus Christ. Praise the Lord.

Deliverance by Heaven's Fire
Here's a testimony brought to us by a pastor who is producing fruit by the seed we've been privileged to sow into his ministry:

In our day to day service in the villages, we have so many experiences about the evil spirits that try to crush the human souls. Recently, in the village [named] an evil spirit belonging to Hindu Goddess caught a [19 years old] girl since one month [i.e. she had suffered a month of torment]. Her family [had] never heard about God and his holy word. We were in the outreach program along with our believers and church elders when the parents of the [young woman] asked me to drive out the devil from their daughter. They [had] wandered around the witch doctors and spent a lot of money to drive out the Hindu devil from the girl. At the eleventh hour, they believed the Good news of God that they heard from the microphones of our nearby church. They came and asked us with a little of faith.

I went to their home along with my team and looked at the girl. She looked at me with sharpened eyes full of angryness upon me. I surprised at her because she questioned me like this. “Who are you? You can’t drive me out that is impossible I am [more] powerful than you. I will see your end if you do not leave this house!” Every body there was observing what would happen. I slowly entered in to the small room, she sat down. Suddenly with loud voice she attacked me and try to hold my neck. Here it is wonder that she suddenly reversed her hands and cried that her hands are burning. [Chris: this is something I've heard often after ministering to people - they 'feel' or 'see' the fire] .

Immediately, I put my hand upon her head and prayed one minute. After one minute, she had fallen down on the floor. She came in to conscious stage and asked the gathering there what happened to her and who were gathering there. Every body surprised. Then real [young woman] is there. She is recognizing all the people there with smiling nature. Every body astonished at me. So God has done great miracles on behalf of their family. Later on, the girl's family are regularly coming to the church and they are ready to get baptism. Now they became a new child to God. Praise the Lord.

Healed of Breast Cancer
Female, age 32: I am a house wife with two daughters and my husband works with auto rickshaw as driver. We were Hindus and never came to the church. I heard about Brother Chris and God's powerful healing through him. I was suffering from a great pain in my breast since last six months. I consulted the doctors and told that it is cancer. I lost hopes in my life and I attended the meeting of Bro Chris and asked him to pray for me. He prayed and encouraged me a lot in the God’s faith. Now my test reports tell that I have no cancer. It’s a wonder that the almighty God ... washed out my cancer. Praise the Lord. I believed the Lord is my savior and I left my previous idol worship.

Healed of Aids

35 year-old Mrs Prasanna Kumari writes:

In my young days I did not know that I was passing on a wrong track. My life was full of enjoyment. (I thought then the wine and sex is the real joy of life unlimited sexual affairs. I spent the money for only liquor and sexual affairs. In a result, I got HIV positive to my body the doctors told me that there is no medicine for this disease and only way is to control it. I came to know that my lifetime became very short and on one very near day I will die. One day I dedicated to commit suicide and was walking towards my village canal side. Then I heard a divine voice from a gathering people in my village. Without my conscious, I went there. I heard godly works from the mouth of white man (later know) that he is Bishop [!!!:CJW] Chris Wade from UK) and came to know the truth of life. My mind was totally changed at the movement. I got Hopes on my personal life. I put my total burden of my life upon Jesus. I believed Jesus and His sacrifice to the mankind of the universe. I prayed about my position and forgiveness of God about my previous sins, days together, recently, I went to the doctor for my regarding check –up the doctor astonished at my blood report. There is no HIV virus in my blood. Really its miracle of God in my life and I realized the power of prayers to lord. I never leave my lord till the end of my life. Our mercy lord will never leave my hand.

Deaf and dumb healing

Lakshmi (15) writes: Brother, when you visited the church at our village, many people gathered there. Then I attended to observe what is happening there. Slowly a mighty power of concentration entered me and I (was) able to listen little bit of message words. I wondered because I am purely duff (deaf!) and dumb girl. Then Bro Chris Wade prayed two times nearly 10 minutes for my heal. By the grace of God now I could able to talk simple words. Now I kept full faith upon God and I pray to Lord every (day) for my over all protection.

Freed from Alcoholism

Sreenu is a 30 year-old man. He was in the habit of drinking and gambling. He told Pastor Isaac "I was unable to resist alcohol and was drunk daily. As Pastor Chris laid his hands on me I felt fire come down through my head and touch my tongue. Now I don't even want to touch an alcoholic drink". Pastor Isaac adds "Now he is totally changed and leading prayerful life".

Glory! Yet we do not rejoice in the fact that spirits submit to us, but that these signs show that our names are written in heaven (Luke 10:9, 17-20, Mk 16:17-20)

Anyone who comes, WILL see miracles: this isn't our promise - it's the biblical promise of the Lord to all disciples. Join us!

Praise the Lord!
