Can all Christians really hear the voice of the Holy Spirit? Are you really supposed to lay your hands on sick people and pray for them? Does God really want to use you to reach people with His power and life? YES! Your life as a Christian should not be about anything else! Christianity is practical, not just a nice philosophy! Life as a Christian is a life of adventure and faith! Your adventure starts now - apply to SOS Mission Bible College, or our US school MCM Ministry School. There are still palces to be filled and time to apply. We need your complete application latest August 20th!

Bible Study with the Kids


We have just had our good friends, the Bestul family from Kristiansand, Norway here in Stockholm a couple of days... Seen the Old City, Skansen, the amusement park Gröna Lund... Yesterday after breakfast we had a Bible study around the kitchen table with all the kids - Sofie, Emma, Moses, Milo, Leon, Alicia and Adam... Awesome! The Bestul and Amritzer kids read aloud from both the Norwegian and Swedish Bible for the Zuniga kids and us adults... I lead the study on the topic; the baptism in the Holy Spirit and the four different ways of speaking in tongues in New Testament and the kids had such great and curious questions... The students (kids) took notes and didn't want to stop after 45 minutes... It is so wonderful with kids hunger and obvious strong faith!

Last night Maria and I planned for the month of August and payed our bills...

See ya!

Happy

I'm blogging directly from our Church Camp... Don't really knew when I felt a deeper feeling of contentment and more genuine happiness before in my life... Simple, but strong worship to a guitarr around the camp fire with smoke in our eyes. Work outs, swimming in the lake Mälaren, bbqs, beach volleyboll tournament and deep Bible conversations with wonderful church members... All languages, nationalities and cultures enjoy being together. Thank You Jesus for SOS Church!


It was a high price to follow the Spirit and give birth to this church downtown Stockholm, but now it feels like it was worth every accusation, allegation and glob... We have soon baptized 60 newly saved and the miracles keeps on coming! We have more than 25 nationalities in the church now and we are growing aggressivly on all fronts!

I love being a shepherd for this church and I am enjoying all the weddings, baptisms and newly saved! The Bible School's soon kick off! Apply now! We are soon having SOS Homecoming and One Year Anniversary with dad Reinhard Bonnke! I don't know how life could get any better!

See ya!

Stockholm in my Heart

Yesterday we took the Djurgårds ferry from Slottskajen out to Djurgården together with the Gisselssons and the Zunigas – we ate burgers, laughed and enjoyed an evening off...


Today I am proof reading my latest manuscript before the design is completed and then off to the printing press... We will have a book release during the One Year Anniversary with SOS Church at the end of August! The book titled A Public Spectacle will be my forth and counting my shorter booklets my ninth publication as an author...

My daughter Alicia, her nanny Alisa and missionary Maria From just left to go to Allsång at Skansen – there is nothing more like Stockholm than that :).

Me, I will enjoy some fish with Maria and my son Adam in our back yard and then I will have some coffee as I continue to read … Lots of work tonight...

PS. I am reading a very good book at the moment, a book about our princess in private... Even I have been affected by the royalist fling in the ripples of our crown princess wedding...

See ya!

Together with best friends

Yesterday I arrived to a sunny Stockholm with Arlanda Express on my way home from Finland... Tired... My day off... I spent the day with Per and Marielle Gisselsson, our Field Directors in Thailand. They are our best friends since 10 years... Thank You Jesus for summer, friends and life!


This weekend it's SOS Church Camp! Come along! We'll bbq, swim, play soccer, worship and baptize! It starts Friday night and goes on all weekend!

See ya!

Seinäjoki

I'm preaching and teaching several times every day here in Eastern Bothnia in the little city Seinäjoki in Finland... Pastor Martti and his team are fabulous hosts and this is my seventh time here... People are being saved, baptized in the Spirit and healed in every service!

Lisa and John Bevere...

It's wonderful to get to know the authors and Bible Teachers Lisa and John Bevere from the US, work together and share platform with them! I love them already. They might visit us in SOS Church sometime during 2011...

Have to run... Soon gonna preach to thousands of crazy wild and spiritual hungry Finnish people! Thank You Jesus for the summer and life!

See ya!

Baptism, Newly Saved and BBQ!

I preached at home on Sunday - wow what a service! So many hugs and so good to see everyone again after five weeks of preaching in the US, Norway and Denmark... I spoke on Biblical honor, and true "honor culture." Jesus is our absolute best example in serving, honoring and sacrificing love... Jesus washed the feet of His disciples and wants us to do the same for one another. Both the Old Testament and Paul's lettes have so much to say about honor... Honor the elderly, parents, authorities, political and spiritual leaders etc...

Newly saved Bashar baptising...

We have just baptized 50 disciples of Jesus in SOS Church now! We are so happy for what the Holy Spirit has done and are doing in our almost a year old church plant in Stockholm... There will be more baptisms this week again, 2 already signed up... Prognosis say that we have probably baptized 60 happy stockholmers just as SOS Homecoming begins and our One Year Anniversary with Reinhard Bonnke at the end of August... Thank You Jesus!

I have been to the amusement park Gröna Lund with my kids, watched the World Cup final with the the church in a tropical heated Stockholm - hallelujah! I fly to Finland today to preach together with the American Bible Teacher John Bevere in a national conference in Seinäjoki Wednesday-Sunday...

Last night we had a BBQ in our yard with wonderful people from the church and newly saved friends (at least 20 people)... We had time since my plane didn't lift until 8:40 this morning :)... I had a great afternoon yesterday, sitting at my deck, kids playing in the pool proof reading my latest book - life is pretty great really!

See ya!

Evangelist and SOS Church's Celebration!

I just landed at Arlanda Int Airport and I'm blogging as I wait for my luggage... I've been at Evangelist's summer festival in Copenhagen for two days, preached and cried my heart out :). My voice is harsh, I'm happy after prayer, worship concert with Ron Kenoly and a lot of preaching... I am so thankful that there are such wonderful Christians in Denmark and that God has given me such a great and faithful friend like Christian Hedegaard. Evangelist and the church Power House in Görlöse is a Danish "Dream Center ala LA" or an "Arc ala Kungsängen" in Stockholm with lots of changed people that testify of freedom from drugs, alcohol, schitzofrenia, border line disease, deppressions and suicidal urges. Jesus does what doctors or psychologists cannot! When human expertise stand perplexed, Jesus still performs miracles 2010! There is no resentment or revulsion to either doctors or therapists, just a humble and strong faith in Gods miracle working power...


The last service at Evangelist's summer festival...

Christian Hedegaard will be preaching at our SOS Homecoming Friday August 27th and naturally we will call that service "Miracle Service." We believe that Jesus will do mighty wonders and that many broken lives and will be restored this weekend! Welcome!

Tomorrow I preach at SOS Church again at 4 pm! Yes! Sooo fun! I'm charging for a full day with the church since we are watching the finale of the world cup after the service at 8 pm! Potluck and fellowship with awesome friends!

Ps. Why don't you donate to SOS and extra time this summer and mark your donation "Reinhard Bonnke!" We so want to bless him tremendously when he is visiting us next month for our One Year Anniversary August 29th... Donate here! Reinhard Bonnke and CfaN is the absolute best soil you can sow in...

See ya!

Hedmarktoppen for the Seventh Year...

Imagine that I have been given the opportunity again! It's the seventh time I'm preaching at the Norwegian Pentecostal Summer Conference and I am enjoying life at their center Hedmarktoppen... They are sooo nice and I am so appreciated and get so much positive feedback. Friends for life... Yesterday I had two Bible studies at the Prayer Conference and then an evening service as well. The theme was The Work of the Holy Spirit, part 1-3. What prayer it was last night! So wonderful when the spirit of prayer is poured out so strongly!


Disciplined prayer creates fear of God, which leads to abstension and victory over alcohol, lust and other burdens. Prayer raises a strong character and make us sensitive for the voice of the Holy Spirit. I need to pray. We need to pray a lot in Scandinavia. We pray until we see and hear from heaven. We listen and obey what the Holy Spirit asks of us. I love to fellowship with God in the Spirit. The presence of Jesus is so visionary, comforting and encouraging, it builds and charges us. I still believe in spiritual warfare, crying out in prayer and days and nights of prayer! Crying out in tongues makes a huge difference!

Today I fly to Copenhagen, Denmark and Evangelist's summer conference! Fun!

See ya

At Home in Stockholm Again

Summer Stockholm...

I just landed in my kitchen in Tullinge again... Going to have a day off after an intense weekend of preaching, having tent meetings, praying for people and meeting different people... Precious people responded to the salvation invitations, several were baptized in the Holy Spirit and told of immidiate healings that took place in the different services - the gospel about Jesus is the best message in the world!

Today I'll run some errends, but hopefully also get a little rest before I fly to Oslo tomorrow. I'm precahing three services at the Norwegian Pentecostal summer conference, Hedmarktoppen on Wednesday... After that I fly to Copenhagen to speak at Evangelist's summer conference two days... Sunday I finally preach at home in SOS Church - oh I'm longing to hug our wonderful church again! It's been a pretty intense conference and festival summer! I'm actually going to both Finland and Norway for two more conferences before I take two weeks vacation in August...

Thank you Jesus for all the miracles! Thank you that I get to serve you! Thank you for the 18 years of full time ministry so far! I am happy!

See ya!

Tent Meetings in Risveden

Drove down from Stockholm to the Alingsås-Vårgårda area through summer Sweden yesterday... A whole team from SOS Church in our church van, stopped to swim in a little lake in Småland and finally landed as guests at my coworker Samuel Willkander's parents in Gräfsnäs late afternoon... Went for another swim in a warm lake and then had ice cream, strawberries and coffee...


I'm visiting the Mission Church of Risveden and the Bethany Church in Anten. People are coming from many cities and towns - and it was so great when Julia and Linnéa sang down heaven. I preached long, then made a salvation invitation and many responded... Looking forward to tonights services at 7 and 10...

I saw several wild boars
and deer last night in the forest... So wanted to shoot a little...

See ya!

After SOS Church celebration from 4 – 630 pm there will be a short break but then at 8pm my friends, we invite you to come and watch the final on three flat screens in church at Warfvinges väg 26 on Kungsholmen in Stockholm! A large screen in the café and two smaller in the sanctuary and a covered dish, get together with all your best friends of course! A perfect occasion to introduce your working colleagues and seeker friends to your church!


I will be preaching at home that Sunday and will be watching the final with my family, including an American nanny; we might even bring the kid's guinea pig and rabbit! No one in SOS Church wants to miss the final of the World Cup now, do you?! :)

Welcome to come and enjoy a summer night with the “big family” - your church!

See ya!

Exciting People!

I had a long trip home...Was delayed 24 hours in New York on my way home from the US... Met two Jewish guys (right under 30 years) that live in Miami FL - really bright! They were on their way home to Israel to visit their families on a two week vacation, what an exciting conversation... At the bar at Chilis where I ate dinner and drank coffee I spoke to a guy from Dublin that live and work in the US nowadays - great guy!

The Akshardham Temple in New Delhi...

Then on my KLM flight to Amsterdam (I was upgraded to Business Class due to the delay - hallelujah!) I sat by an Indian man, Ravi Karkara from Delhi with roots in Punjab. Ravi works for UNICEF, we bacame best friends! Ravi is a Hindu and lives with his family in New York City, I guarantee you that we will meet again - he was wonderful! We had deep conversations almost the entire trip and compared Hinduism with Christianity, laughed and had real fun together :). I explained and told him about Jesus, His death on the cross and His ressurection. Told him about healing miracles and got to pray with him twice during our conversation. Ravi is a humble seeker that heard the Christian message about forgiveness, grace, unconditional love and a second chance for the first time - totally unreached in other words... Tears were in his eyes when I told him that Jesus took the entire world's bad karma in His own body when He died on that cross!

I love to travel!

See ya!
