David said to Solomon his son, ‘Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the Lord is finished, (1 Chronicles 28.20, NIV).

In Mark 10.23–31, Jesus teaches that wealth, status, and personal achievements cannot secure salvation. Using the illustration of a camel passing through the eye of a needle, He shows that entering God's Kingdom is impossible through human effort alone. When the disciples ask, "Who then can be saved?" Jesus answers with hope: "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God."

This passage reminds us that salvation comes through humility, faith, and complete dependence upon God. Like Peter and the disciples, we are called to leave everything behind to follow Christ, trusting that any sacrifice made for the Gospel will be rewarded both now and in eternity.

Jesus then reveals that the way of salvation is through His coming death and resurrection, yet the disciples still seek positions of honour. In contrast, blind Bartimaeus approaches Jesus with humility and receives mercy. The message is clear: greatness in God's Kingdom belongs not to those seeking status, but to those who faithfully serve, suffer, and follow Christ.

I was only 14 when I was baptised in the Holy Ghost. What I wanted was what was in the Bible, the baptism of fire, of power. I knew that when the fire came down on 120 people in the Upper Room, they became fiery evangelists – and immediately Peter held the first evangelistic crusade of the early C...

I want to speak especially to young pastors and church leaders: if you desire to serve God, give Him everything you have, don't hold anything back. God hasn't called you into a position of prominence, but has given you the responsibility of service. I want to challenge you, God is saying something very important: He wants you, He wants your life, your time, your family, your money; this is the calling upon your life, God wants everything. How much did God give for you? He gave His only Son so that you would be set free. Give your life back in return.

All of us once were sinners whom God loved, chose, fashioned and created. As an evangelist I know that when God looks at sinners, He doesn’t just see alcoholics, drug addicts, the hopeless broken lives. What He sees is the potential, what you can be when He touches you! God is always seeing the fu...

God has a clear plan and strategy in everything He does. From creation to salvation, nothing has happened in heaven or earth without the foreknowledge of God. Our Christian lives need to change from the passive to the active. God wants to put power into YOUR life. The Bible is full of promises that He will heal us – but why? Why did God heal my throat cancer? So that I would give my life for Russia and the glory of Christ!

The challenge for every believer is simple: do God's work. Stop merely talking about it – take action. Regardless of the obstacles, regardless of the sacrifice, commit yourself to the work God has called you to do.

As David encouraged his son Solomon: “Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you until all the work for the service of the temple of the Lord is finished” (1 Chronicles 28:20, NIV).

God's call is not just to believe, but to serve faithfully. With His presence, strength, and unfailing support, we can persevere until the task He has entrusted to us is complete.

David has just completed 3 days' evangelistic ministry in Almaty, Kazakhstan: 2 days' ethnic Festival led by Kazakh, Uzbek and Azerbaijani worship groups; and on Sunday, an all-day family day with David preaching twice.

David is well known for over 20 years in Central Asia. They say his preaching is more powerful than ever before and spiritually 'breaks up the ground'.

On the Sunday during David's preaching, the city KGB sent a truck with a mobile phone jammer to close down the massive traffic of photos, videos and reports coming out of the building, spreading the Gospel on social media everywhere. They demanded the pastor show David's permit to speak, but he told them to go to the government department that issued the permit if they really wanted to see it!
