| We
came with great expectation to this conference,
but what we heard and experienced did greatly
exceed our expectations. We thank God for the
powerful and anointed ministry of Pastor Lee Stoneking.
He mightily edified and strengthened the church
of Austria and Germany. God gave His church great
promises for revival all over Europe and something
great was birthed there in Vienna in the spiritual
realm. Hallelujah, thank you Jesus!!! We also
thank Pastor Robinette and the church of Vienna
for their Christian hospitality and love. They
all worked hard to make this conference such a
great success. More pictures and a report will
follow shortly. |
Sorry
for the delay. More pictures from
our wonderful conference in Vienna.
Hold on to the Word of God and the
promises the Lord Jesus has given
to us at the conference and keep
them in your heart. |

Here a
report and a web album as promised:
“This conference has changed my life, at
long last I had the opportunity to pray through
again; the presence of the LORD mightily filled
the whole sanctuary” In all, the annual
conference of Germany/ Austria which took place
in Vienna, was a great blessing for everyone.
We were honored to have a great guest preacher
at the conference, Pastor Lee Stoneking from the
USA. Already on the first evening, the powerful
anointing of the LORD was upon him.
During previous conferences, the majority of the
people who attended were from Germany and Austria;
however, this time around it was different. There
were brothers and sisters from 12 different countries,
for example, from Czechoslovakia, France, Yugoslavia,
Holland, and the U.S.A. This time around, the
conference lasted for 3 days; beginning on Friday
the 1st of May until Sunday the 3rd; with worship
services both in the morning and in the evening.
Already on Friday evening, the sanctuary, which
is able to hold up to 500 people, was almost completely
full. The Spirit of the LORD moved so strongly,
already from the first song onwards, that the
people jumped out of their seats, and many of
them began to dance, sing, and rejoice in the
LORD. Brother Stoneking preached the Word of God
with a powerful anointing, and towards the end,
he told the congregation to pray for one another;
some were weeping and others were down on their
knees, worshipping God. This went on for about
two hours after the preaching had finished. Afterwards,
there was pizza and drinks available at the church,
rather than people having to go to McDonalds.
There was great worship on the next morning, even
though many seemed to be still a little bit tired
at the beginning. The Praise Team from Vienna
sang, and also the adult choir from Mannheim;
and thereafter, there was awe inspiring preaching
again from Pastor Stoneking. The youth went out
later on the streets to invite people to the worship
services. More people attended on the following
evening. The youth choir from Mannheim also sang,
and the Spirit of God moved mightily among the
majority of the young people present. Brother
Stoneking spoke about the great miracle which
God had worked in his life. After he had suffered
a severe heart attack, and was medically declared
dead for 30 minutes, the LORD raised him back
to life again.
The second miracle which he experienced was that,
although he suffered concussion because of the
repeated banging of his head on the hard ground,
caused by the electric shocks of the defibrillator,
and although a lot of blood was pressed into his
eyes, his eyesight was in no way affected and
there was no injury inflicted to his retina. Brother
Stoneking had a simple explanation for this: “Jesus
is my healer.” As a result of his testimony,
there was an increase in faith for healing among
the assembly. Those who needed healing and believed
were asked to stand. People laid hands on them
and prayed in faith. God worked mightily, over
20 people received healing.
As a result of the conference, people’s
faith in God was increased, with a greater desire
to worship HIM more. In every problem we should
look towards HIM, for HE is greater than any problem!
HE has overcome all things, and HE has made us
more than conquerors by the power of HIS wonderful
Holy Spirit.
We all returned to our countries in the power
of the name of Jesus, to share the Gospel to a
needy world and ready to turn up the heat for
the devil; just like Jesus said, in Acts 1:8,
“But ye shall receive power, after that
the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall
be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in
all Judea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost
part of the earth.”(Czechoslovakia,
France, the U.S.A., Yugoslavia, Germany, Austria,
and in other countries...) sb
On
2 May during the evening service God gave
to the church a message in tongues with
interpretation (here are some fragments
of this message):
I
have seen your faithfulness that you have
received the Word. I have pushed back
your enemies, so you can have the victory.
The LORD has made a way and has opened
doors. Let us rejoice, shout for joy and
dance in Him!
