                                                       MBC TESTIMONIES

PETER RUKWAYA – from Rwanda

Miracle Bible College has renewed my doctrine and gave me an understanding about apostolic perspective with the biblical foundation in my life.

 

FATIMA CHINEMBIRI

I would like to thank the lord through Harvester Miracle Bible College. In MBC we are trained to hear from God with an open bible and also to function in our gifts. It is not a one man’s show but Everyone has to function and to submit to one another.

 

KISOSE DODY – from DRC

I thank the Lord for being part of Miracle Bible College to learn Jesus doctrine because the devil always attacked me and I did not know how to overpower him. But through the power of Jesus from the teachings that I learn here, really God is helping and protecting me. And when there is something that I don’t know the Lord will reveal it to me through prophecies from the members of MBC. So all my confidence I give to God 2Cori 12:9

 

DOREEN DELPORT – From Mbombela, Mpumalanga

May this be an inspiration for everyone to come to Miracle Bible College. You are never too old to change your lifestyle especially if it’s done through accurate teaching. I am 52 year old and coming to MBC is busy changing my whole life –reformed my body, soul and spirit. All three my kids went through MBC and it was a challenge for me too. By hearing God’s voice with an open bible and uprooting improper foundations, God’s Word is busy renewing my mind to come into a new relationship with our Father and to experience His love ,joy and the apostolic grace . It is such a privilege and I want to give God the glory and honour for this. AMEN!

 

DIANA MUKUMBI – from Zimbabwe originally.

Miracle Bible College has helped me to gain understanding of the word of God ,of who I am in Christ and what I can do to honour God in my life. It has changed me as a person in my marriage and as a mother to my kids as I am being led by the Holy Spirit everyday, hearing God and obeying Him. It is a great opportunity and it’s priceless to me to sit under the word every day.

 

KATIE LOURENS – from UK

Miracle Bible College has been a safe place for me to learn and practise hearing Gods voice and discover the gifts He has given me. It’s wonderful for me to see each week how the Holy Spirit speaks through the lectures because they are all open to be led by him as they teach. It is a restful place to sit under His word and allow Him to renew my mind; revealing old destructive mind sets and replacing them with life giving and practical truths from the word. It’s been great practise leading worship, dance and prophesying because I know that if I make a mistake there is such love and acceptance and that any correction will bring change and freedom as God is busy forming Christ in me.

 

MICHELLE LUANNE LOUW – Western Cape, South Africa

While I am studying the word at Miracle Bible College God is busy cutting away the excess that has piled up over the years. The things that I thought I had to do , the way I thought I had to do things . God is removing that by the continual of the washing of His word by studying the word with the Holy Spirit. I am taught how to live an accurate lifestyle, in which I can live the Life of Christ despite my circumstances.

 

THABISA MTHWECU – Western Cape, South Africa

For me being at Miracle Bible College means being brought back by God to His plan and purpose for my life. I can now say that I am experiencing the fullness of life in Christ Jesus compared to the life I used to live before. It turned out that all I needed was God and Him only and He manifests Himself to me in ways that I can see that it’s Him Speaking to me. I can only say if you feel lost just come to Miracle Bible College and hear what God has to say about your life for He knows what we are in need of.

 

BEN UNSWORTH – Birmingham, UK

Before coming too MBC I was working in a dead end job with no hope of advancement. I’d dropped out of university and given up on my dream of studying English. I was without purpose but making the decision to come to come to another country to study the word has changed my life. God has restored passion for drama; singing and writing that I thought were gone forever. He has given me opportunity to teach English and creative writing, showing me how I can earn by doing something what I enjoy. Most importantly I now have a purpose; I function in His body and know that He has plans for my future that will exceed every expectation I could ever have had.

 

CHARITY CHATAIRA – from Zimbabwe

The Bible College means a lot to me. My life was not in a good condition for the past 20 years. I would go to church but not see the fruit of being a Christian. Once I come here at Miracle Bible College I learnt how to hear from God with an open Bible. They equip us with the word of God and my life has changed through the Holy Spirit, I praise God.

 

THEMBA DYALOYI – Eastern Cape, South Africa

My condition before I came to Miracle Bible College I did not know that God speaks with us with an open bible. I was a Christian but I did not have a personal relationship with God. I did not know about the kingdom of God that it is within us and I could not even pray in tongues. But here at College I have learnt that the kingdom of God is within us and that it is righteousness, peace and joy in the holy spirit. And that speaking in tongues is a sign that you are filled in the holy spirit. Now my inner picture inside has changed because Christ is in me.

 

SARAH MULHANGA

While we were praying for cities and nations Ben instructed us to pray for each other, I asked Charity to pray for me and when I meet up with my friends later on I felt compelled to confess all my sins, I kept a secret for years. Already God is doing amazing things over my life through Miracle Bible College. His also building my character and moulding me as a Christian. The best is yet to come and I thank God for MBC.

Before MBC

l thought only those that are called to the work of ministry should be trained in the word, and l also believed that it is not about being trained but if you have the Holy Spirit you are sorted, you don't need any training. l also took ministry as an ambition thing you run into by excitement, especially seeing God using you. It was an error. Moreover having preconceived ideas of God with the old wine mindset that was full of condemnation and guilt.

 

During and after MBC

Through God's grace and amazingly trained lecturers, the above mentioned errors and deception was exposed, yes it took time, but l learned that we have all been called to be confirmed to the image of Christ. And not only do we need training for just pastors or those who have been called to ministry but everyone. Paul charged his son in faith Timothy to study (be diligent) to present himself a worker that is approved by God that need not ashamed but rightly dividing the word of truth. And studying involves training, discipline and of course mentorship  and in mentorship we have coaching that comes with correction. At first correction felt like rejection, but today l can look back and testify that it was worthy it.

Being at MBC made me spend much time in the word, and many things were exposed that included ambition for ministry, and l had to lay it down. It is from then that God began to work with my heart and expose many areas in my life that was controlled by pride and preconceived ideas that does not agree with the word.

 

Today am in ministry, serving God as one of Harvester church pastors, being able to discern, distinguish between error and truth. Lecturing and having people in submission not in fear but according to right protocol ; and not preaching condemnation and guilt, but grace and love, while allowing the Holy Spirit to do the work in people just like He was patient with me through others.

 

lndeed at MBC l have learnt to hear from God with an open bible, and out of the overthrow of what l learned l am able to share with others out of love and not ambition.

My testimony at Miracle Valley Bible College

After I made a vow to serve God and humanity as long as God spares me and keeps me healthy, I looked for a place where I could study the Bible, but most Theological Colleges study other books instead of the Bible.

I found an old LP record in my uncle’s home with the address of Miracle Valley Bible College in Arizona, USA on it and wrote to them. They accepted me. I sold my brand new car and paid my fare and fees to go to the Valley.

Under the teaching of Dr. Roy M. Gray and Dr. Ernest Oldfield, my life completely changed and I came to have an entirely new perspective on life, things and people. I also knew the Bible very well and could quote Scriptures from almost every book of the Bible.

In 1992 I got permission from Dr. Gray, just before he passed away, to use his material for Miracle Bible College. Although Miracle Valley no longer exists, many lives have been changed by the powerful living Word of God here at Miracle Bible College and satellites of the College. The courses are now being translated into other languages so that we can reach the rest of the world with this life transforming Word of Life.

Going to Miracle Valley was probably the best thing I ever did.

Graeme Winter Testimony about MBC
Posted by Aje Pelser on 08 May 2013

Testimony

 

Before I came to MBC I had a total distorted thinking about God ,myself and people which was very negative and based in lies which obviously was injected into me through parents, situations, people and the enemy of our souls; the devil and his cohorts.

 

During my studies at MBC I had the opportunity to learn new thoughts and truths and to unlearn old thoughts and lies. It teaches you to renew your mind through the washing of the word. At MBC they focus on the word of God and how to allow the word to change your perception and perspective about things, God and people. You learn how to meditate on God’s word which actually brings the desired change.

 

Now I do everything from a position of faith and rest, knowing that I am a blessed person and surely mercy and goodness will follow me for rest of my life. I am sure of his love towards me and can share it to others as well.

Testimonies from 10am Service - 21 April 2013

Katie Lourens - God's Healing - I've suffered from bleeding gums for a long time. A couple of months ago Apostle Andre had a word of knowledge that there were people who had problems with their gums and he called them forward for prayer. I went and received prayer for this and ever since I've had no problems with my gums - no pain, no tenderness and no bleeding.
Andy Sachs - Miraculous repairs - I was doing some laundry for a friend the other day when my washing machine started leaking. I was really worried as I still had washing to do for myself and didn't have the money to get the machine repaired. I decided to pray over the machine that God would fix it; I did my own washing without any problems and the machine has been fine since.

Neil Palmer - Power of Prayer - "Work has been very busy and we've been short-staffed lately, risking us losing clients and making everyone stressed. About a week ago I decided to pray about it and so I brought the situation before God in prayer. One of the huge projects we have to do was then delayed by a few months to give us time to do what we needed to do. Bring your businesses before God in prayer!"
Tim - Healing - "Two weeks ago a Muslim colleague of mine was shot 16 times in her stomach and legs. When I found out I began praying for her and asked others in the Body to pray with me. She came out of surgery without any problems, all of the bullets bar two had gone straight through her. I visited her last week and she was sitting up and looked well. She confessed herself that it was a miracle that she was alive - the doctors had told her that the bullets narrowly missed her spine. I explained that we'd been praying for her  and offered to pray with her then, she allowed me to lay hands on her and pray for further healing."

Tjitte Wever: Provision

A client called me last minute for a tour, so I collected the tour bus for the client, and the Lord encouraged me to give what I had to the security guard. I had R20 in my pocket and gave it to the man and went on my way. 
After I took my client out, he gave me a cash tip much bigger that what I had given away.  
Cynthia Cronwright: Exhortation.
I often send the things we don't need around the house to the my grandchild's school and they redistribute it to other families. 
Very unexpectedly, the school gave a me box of chocolates to say thanks.
I thank God for teaching me to give joyfully! So I could also receive the chocolates joyfully.  
Jack: Help with studies.
I've been studying for 2 years, and kept getting new supervisors. 
I asked the Lord to help me finish my discertation, and to give me the right supervisor to help me. The Lord gave me a new supervisor and I has made excellent progress. God speeds up the processes in our lives. I give God the glory for the past month-I've made more progress than in the last 2 years of study.

The Holy Spirit – Class testimonies Darlington – Speaking about unforgiveness has reminded me of my family past. My father abused my mother, refused to pay for my school fees when I decided I wanted to be a pastor; I grew up feeling that he didn’t love me. We didn’t have a proper relationship for many years. But since 2006 we have started to spend more time together and I have been going through the process of forgiving him. Luke – I’ve been forgiving my father in layers. Even though I’ve forgiven him, sometimes feelings against my father would surface and I’d have to forgive him again. The night before this class I was praying about this in bed and I felt the Holy Spirit lift the burden of unforgiveness on me. He showed me the reasons behind why my father acts like he does and has given me compassion toward him instead of bitterness. So – I can testify that forgiveness is a process that works in layers. Gift – I grew up feeling that my brother was loved by my family more than me and even though I knew it wasn’t his fault I had unforgiveness in my heart towards him. Then when I came to Harvester I was corrected and showed that I am well accepted and loved here. This has helped me to forgive my brother and improved our relationship. Angie – I would like to testify about the 3 stages in which revelation comes. After having an argument with my husband I asked the Holy Spirit for wisdom about how to stop our arguments. As I was praying I heard a voice say “Don’t worry yourself, it’s not good for the baby.” At first I thought it was my husband but he was sleeping, I knew it was the Holy Spirit. What was even more amazing was that I didn’t know I was pregnant, it was nearly a month later that I had confirmation that I was! Forward – In my family there are people who bear grudges and don’t forgive one another and they are trying to drag me into that situation. But I can tell them that I have the gift of the Holy Spirit and that brings forgiveness. Lynette – I grew up in a very traditional church where there was no teaching on the Holy Spirit. I had to search for it myself and spent nearly 3 years seeking because no one in the church I was in could help me. This generation is so fortunate to have this manual and all the knowledge in it. I had to battle to find these things out for myself but you don’t have to. Remember those who have gone through these things to bring you this knowledge.

Testimonies from the Warfare Conference at Soul Harvester Ministries,

Soul Clinic,Paynesville,Liberia.

 

I taught on governmental prayer and apostolic declarations briefly based on prophetic insight and took them through the process, allowing them time to prophesy over their own church, community and country. We can get those prophecies from Apostle Emmanuel himself – he wrote them down and then I let him lead his church in apostolic declaration based on those prophecies.

 

After prayers we heard some testimonies.

A child fell from a tree this week and did not break anything.

A women’s was sick and now she is better.

Alexander the announcer for the church, he likes to start all his sentences with “In Jesus mighty name!”; said he thanks the Lord for the messenger that brought the word throughout the week that they had to “endure” I thought he meant enjoy, but now I’m not so sure!

Most people sing a bit before they testify but the song has something to do with what they want to say, so it is a form of celebration of what the Lord has done for them, albeit a bit traditional.

A lady blessed God for bringing her to this conference. On Wednesday she sat down and began to concentrate on how good the Word of God is in her life.

 

A lady with stomach pain testified that when she was prayed for, the Lord showed her an image and said: “This is the image that has been oppressing you” and she saw the thing leave out the side entrance of the Church. Praise God she was healed from a spirit of infirmity.

 

An Old Father, the father of Sylvester the stately driver – he drives really slowly, on purpose to make me feel comfortable – bless him he could give Samuel Rodriguez some lessons.

Anyway the old Father, had a chronic dream that he would always leave one of his children behind. He said tonight that the dream has stopped.

I wonder if it has something to do with the trauma of war, probably; because another lady told me that she walked toGuineaformMonroviaduring the war – walked!

 

Messaly, former general from Charles Taylor’s army (the dictator who was recently sentenced at the Hague for 50 years for war crimes committed versus Sierra Leone and not, incidentally, for the atrocities committed against his own people) testified how God taken him from darkness to light and he confessed his former sins and lifestyle as a member of a secret society doing terrible things, now he is part of God’s society. He referred to the illustration of the water bottle being filled when I taught on your measure of faith and he cried out to God to fill him, fill him. I stood up and saluted him and he saluted back, now he can be a general in God’s army. He is also the coach of our soccer team tomorrow!

 

Glory to God in the highest that has exalted the Name of Jesus above every name that is name, in heaven, on earth and under earth. Let’s keep praying that the Lord send missionaries into the interior ofLiberiathat seems to still be bound in witchcraft, where new church plants are needed with Bible Colleges.

 

A Miracle Bible College has been established in the local Church at Soul Clinic, and with the help of Harvesters, we have given the Apostle a laptop with all the MBC material he needs to teach and preach the Gospel of the Kingdom till Jesus’ return! Many local pastors and apostles have signed up to attend in the next term.

 

We went to a preaching point in the Rubber plantations. Apostle Emmanuel has been reaching out there many times and there are some disciples. We encouraged them with the Apostle Andre’s “Man born blind” sermon to plant the church and go for it. We walked through the village as a team inviting people to attend the church. The elder of the community gave us a building for free to use for the church plant and gave us his blessing saying it would be good especially for the children of the Bright Farm community to have a local church there as other churches did not last there before. The next day the couple we prayed for had their first meeting! Glory to God, Jesus is building His church.

 

A pregnant lady came for prayer she was overdue – 10 months pregnant. We prayed in Jesus name for her that God would help her, she gave birth on the Sunday morning, the same morning that the Bright Farm Church had their First meeting! The church is also on a road called “Big Belly Junction” which is what they call pregnant ladies in Liberia! 3 Fold fold confirmation of the church being established in Liberia.

 

In Mamba point the Lightning struck near my room a few times in the middle of the night and I realized God is removing principalities and powers from the area and His church is taking its place. I interceded for the nation. To register Harvester International Ministries in an African country we need $1000 per country, by God’s grace we just registered in Uganda.

hi daddy,
While I was sick God was glorified through my life by bringing a young woman (back to) life. This was the daughter of my neighbor. It was around 2:00 am (GMT) that the woman fell in a shower and she lost consciousness. (I) began to speed as I could while tired under the weight of malaria. When I arrived, she barely breathing and I started to pray in tongue(s) until she began to cough and then to cry because she had just come back to life. I would like to share this testimony with proof and bless the Lord for what he is glorified in our weakness. Thank you for your support and prayers every day for us.

Glory to God!
