HOW TO RECEIVE YOUR MIRACLE?!

And the LORD restored Job’s losses WHEN HE PRAYED FOR HIS FRIENDS. Indeed the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. Job‬ ‭42‬:‭10‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

1. God loves to meet our needs with an abundance!
2. God restores what we’ve lost!
3. There is timing! WHEN HE PRAYED FOR OTHERS!!!
4. There is conditions! WHEN HE PRAYED FOR OTHERS!!! Look to meet the needs of others!!!
5. There is attitude! WHEN HE PRAYED FOR HIS FRIENDS!!! Even though they had been speaking to him wrongly & even harshly, he choose to overlook that!
6. Because he prayed for others, out of great personal need, God restored twice as much as he had lost!

“Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”
‭‭Luke‬ ‭6‬:‭38‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

Live with Christ & see Him give you your miracles!!!

Faith is forged in the deepest trials. In Ethiopia’s Oromia region, the local Christian community is mourning the loss of at least 60 brothers and sisters in Christ following two separate assaults in Merti and Shirka districts.

The first attack took place on October 20 in Merti, taking 14 lives. Just four days later, on October 24, violence struck Shirka, claiming 46 more believers. Beyond the 60 dead, over 20 worshippers were seriously injured, and 20 family homes were reduced to ashes. While regional officials linked the violence to rebel factions, no group has accepted responsibility.

Yet, rather than surrendering to despair, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church answered devastation with an enduring Christian witness. Denouncing the bloodshed, leaders publicly demanded that civil leaders safeguard believers and 'uphold religious freedom.'

Most importantly, church leadership directed believers to the throne of grace, passionately calling on people around the world to 'pray for the victims and grieving families.' In the face of earthly injustice, the fellowship of believers stands united in sorrow, anchored in faith, and lifting every broken heart to Christ.

TO SUPPORT DIWALI, IS TO SUPPORT CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION.

This weekend, Auckland will celebrate Diwali, a Hindu religious festival.

To celebrate the Hindu religion, is to celebrate the Hindu crimes.

Here’s why...
______________

WHILE NEW ZEALAND CELEBRATES DIWALI, CHRISTIANS ARE BEING PERSECUTED IN INDIA.

▪️ In 2026, Christians face esaculating violent attacks by Hindu nationalist mobs.
▪️ Pastors beaten. Churches burned down. Christian homes destroyed.
▪️ Christians threatened, assaulted, kidnapped, r***d and killed because of their faith.
▪️ Christians have been beaten with cricket bats and stones. Yet here in New Zealand, we're hosting India for international cricket matches this month.
▪️ There have also been disturbing reports of Christians being forced to eat cow dung because of their faith.
▪️ Open Doors ranks India 12th on its World Watch List for Christian persecution.
▪️ In 2026 USCIRF has recommended India be designated a Country of Particular Concern over serious religious freedom violations.
▪️ 145 Hate Incidents were recorded specifically at the hands of Hindu monks and Hindu religious leaders in India during 2025.
▪️ Christian Persecution has risen by 557% in the past decade.

If I were a Christian Pastor in India, I would face violence, imprisonment or even death simply for preaching the gospel.

This is the reality of Christian persecution in India that must not be ignored.
______________

MODI & HINDU NATIONALISM
▪️ PM Narendra Modi leads India’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government, a militant political party filled with Hindu nationalists. 39% of Modi’s BJP MPs have criminal cases underway.
▪️ 46% of India’s elected MPs have criminal cases against them, including murder, attempted murder, r**e and kidnapping. They are corrupt.
▪️ Hindutva (Hinduness) is the political ideology that seeks to make India a purely Hindu nation. They regard Christianity as a foreign influence that must be eradicated.
▪️ Hindu nationalist organisations include the BJP, RSS, VHP and Bajrang Dal, which have over 10 million members, and are primarily responsible for attacks against Christians. In 2025 there were 1,318 hate events linked to VHP and Bajrang Dal.
▪️ Modi's government faces international criticism for failing to adequately protect Christians and hold perpetrators accountable.
▪️ Modi is recorded as encouraging the extermination of Christians in India.
______________

HINDU NATIONALISTS IN NZ
▪️ Hindutva organisations are alive and active in New Zealand, including Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS), which has links to India’s RSS movement.
▪️ Since 2021, NZ University researchers have documented and warned of Hindutva influence in NZ.
▪️In January 2024, David Seymour (ACT) and Melissa Lee (National) attended a Hindu Nationalist rally in Auckland.
▪️In 2026, this coalition government welcomed and hosted Modi in New Zealand, despite international concerns about his numerous human rights violations against Christians.
▪️ The NZ Bharitya Diaspora Group (with links to Modi’s BJP) organised the large “Kia Ora Modi” reception at Auckland’s Spark Arena, attended by PM Luxon.
▪️Overseas Friends of BJP New Zealand (OFBJP NZ) publicly promoted the event for Modi’s visit.

So how many Hindu Nationalists are also involved in Diwali this weekend?

DON'T TELL US NOT ALL HINDUS ARE EXTREMISTS. SHOW US THAT YOU OPPOSE THE EXTREMISTS.

It doesn’t cut it to say that there is a difference between some Hindus and Hindu nationalists or extremists. The fact is we never hear NZ Hindus, condemning the actions of Hindu Nationalists, and the persecution of Christians.

Religious freedom cannot be something Hindus demand for themselves in New Zealand while denying it to Christians in India.

If you support Modi, you must be prepared to answer questions about also supporting Christian persecution under his government.
______________

WHEN IS INDIA’S INFLUENCE TOO MUCH?
▪️ We have strong evidence of the persecution of Christians by Hindu nationalists in India. We must not allow that same intimidation or extremism to take root in NZ.
▪️ What is happening to Christians in India must never happen here.
▪️ We can not allow critical mass to build, where foreign religions outnumber Christians.
▪️ Hindu nationalist groups are already active in NZ. Who is watching their activities and political influence or pressure?
▪️ If you come to NZ to live peacefully, to assimilate to the Kiwi Way of Life and respect our Christianity, you are welcome.
▪️ If you come here to build a parallel society, or to threaten, intimidate or persecute Christians...or anyone else...you are not welcome.

If you’re an Indian Christian you are welcome here.
If you're of an Indian religion that kills or persecutes Christians, you are not welcome here.
______________

NZ POLITICIANS, POLICE & AUCKLAND COUNCIL

For Auckland Council to use ratepayers money to fund Diwali, is to fund Hinduism and crimes against Christians.
▪️ Auckland Council funding for Diwali 2026 exceeds $400k
▪️ Not to mention the cost to light up the Auckland Harbour Bridge, Auckland Musuem, Sky Tower and more venues

For NZ Police to support and dance at Diwali, is to support Hinduism and crimes against Christians.
▪️ Minister Mark Mitchell has permitted a lot of police resources to be spent celebrating Diwali throughout various police districts this month
▪️ Yet what happens when I publicly expose the human rights violations and Christian persecution occurring under Modi's government?
▪️ Not to mention child brides, caste-based discrimination and other serious human rights abuses that persist in parts of India. These are incompatible with New Zealand’s way of life.
▪️ For speaking up, my fi****ms licence is revoked. I am charged and hauled before the courts for alleged racial disharmony.
▪️ I am being targeted and harassed by NZ Police for speaking out against Modi and exposing Christian persecution.

For NZ Politicians to support and turn up to Diwali, is to support Hinduism and crimes against Christians.
▪️ Luxon, Hipkins, Seymour, Winston Peters have all make recent appearances at Diwali events, including many of their MPs
▪️ Minister Mark Mitchell has funded tens of thousands towards various Diwali events through the Ministry of Ethnic Communities Development Fund. Zero for Christians though.

For Press to celebrate Diwali, is to celebrate crimes against Christians.
▪️ Diwali celebrations receive extensive media coverage.
▪️ Christian persecution in India receives no coverage.

OUR MESSAGE TO MODI
❌ STOP the persecution of Christians
❌ STOP attacks on churches and pastors
âś… PROTECT Christianity
âś… HOLD perpetrators accountable

THIS WEEKEND – WE TAKE A STAND!

The International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church this weekend reminds us of Christians suffering for their faith worldwide.

Christians are the most persecuted group across the globe.

I would argue we are also the most persecuted religious group even here in New Zealand. Just look at how Politicians, Police, Pagan Religions and the Press treat Destiny Church. We have received hundreds of threats from Indians living in New Zealand. But police take no action. They are too busy harassing me.

WE WILL NOT BE SILENT ABOUT CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION!

GET THEM OUT...Politicians, Police, Pagan Religions & Press!
FREE TO SPEAK...Truth is not Hate Speech.

🚨Across roughly 1,300 years of the Muslim-Arab slave trade, an estimated one million Greek Christians were sold into slavery. Attractive Greek girls were commonly forced into prostitution once they were enslaved by Turks, who then took all of the money they earned. Female captives were routinely subjected to sexual exploitation.

After the Chios Massacre of 30 March 1822, in which Ottoman forces killed 42,000 Christian Greeks, another 52,000 women and children were put up for sale in the slave markets of Smyrna and Constantinople.

On 1 September 1821 the island of Samothrace was devastated by an Ottoman massacre. Roughly 10,000 men and boys were killed; the women and children were sold in the markets of Constantinople and Smyrna. Only those who converted to Islam were spared.

On 14 July 1821, 486 Greeks on Cyprus were publicly beheaded for refusing to convert to Islam.

Between 13 and 22 September 1922, during the burning of Smyrna, thousands of Greek and Armenian women were mass-r***d and killed by Turkish forces driven by ethnic and religious hostility. Survival often depended on conversion to Islam. The campaign targeted the Christian population of Anatolia in an effort to erase the Greek presence there.

On the nights of 6–7 September 1955, during the Istanbul pogroms, Turkish mobs r***d members of the city’s Greek community. Hundreds of women were assaulted and driven out. Today fewer than 2,000 Greeks remain in the city their ancestors founded.

In 1974, after the Turkish invasion of Cyprus, thousands of Greek women between the ages of 12 and 71 were r***d. The Church of Cyprus later accepted a change in the law that legalized the abortions that resulted from those assaults.

Islamic teaching explicitly permitted sexual relations with female captives. Quran 23:6 states that men may have in*******se with “those whom their right hands possess” (i.e., female slaves) as well as with their wives, declaring that there is no blame in either case.

The historical record shows that Islam has repeatedly treated non-Muslim women as legitimate targets of sexual violence and enslavement. Anyone who knowingly supports the demographic replacement of native European populations by Islamic migration is betraying both their own people and the generations who suffered under the same system.
