Believing is Seeing

2009-12-19T07:44:00.001-06:00

Jesus tell us exactly how to pray and receive the answer. Having provided all that we need, He says: All things whatsoever you desire, when you pray (not after you pray but before any answer is manifested-when you pray), believe that you receive them, and you shall have them. -Mark 11:24. This is a significant promise in the Bible concerning prayer and faith. Notice: When you pray, believe that you receive.

We must understand the sequence of prayer and faith. Most people reverse the order. They think it should be this way: Whatever you desire, pray for it, and when you see and feel it, then believe that you have received it.

This is the way of the natural person who says: "Seeing is believing."

But God reverses the natural order and says:

"Believing is seeing."

David said, I believed to see. -Psa 27:13 He did not say, I had to see before I believed. And God said of him, I have found David a man after my own heart, which shall fulfill all my will, -Acts 13:22 proving that without faith it is impossible to please (God), Heb 11:6 but by faith we can obtain a good report before Him. -Heb 11:2

Human logic asserts: If I cannot feel it or see it, I will not believe it. This is not God's way, and nowhere can this attitude be supported by the scriptures. Thomas said, "Except I shall see..I will not believe," -John 20:25 and this attitude displeased Christ. -John 20:29

God's way is, Believe that we receive it when we pray, and we shall have it. His condition is to believe that He answers our prayers when we pray.

In praying for Biblical Healing, God authorizes us to consider our prayer answered. This is true when we pray for any blessing that He has promised and that Christ has provided in His sacrificial death.

When God's word is the only reason for believing that our prayer is answered, that is faith.

Paradise of Abundance

2009-12-15T07:28:00.000-06:00

The vast wealth of this planet is the creation of God who is good and who has created an abundance of good things for you. -Ps 145:8-9; Ps 100:5; Ps 119:68
Every diamond and precious stone, every mineral and every natural treasure is placed here, on deposit, for the good life which God wills for you. -De 33:13-16; Ez 28:13

From the flamboyant tulip beds which dazzle the landscapes of Holland to the lush orchid masses of tropical jungles, God has decked our environment with splendor and beauty.

From the breathtaking grandeur of mountain peaks to the fabulous wealth of rich valleys, the Lord God has indeed placed man and woman amidst a world of abundance.

The "You" You See Is the "You" You'll Be!

2009-12-13T09:44:00.003-06:00

The miracle of sight must be among the most awesome wonders of life. The delicate mechanism of the eye is astounding. Yet it is not really what you see with. Your brain is what sees.

With your eyes closed in sleep, you may watch entire scenes of faces or places or happenings with such perfect detail that you can never forget them-yet they did not appear in the material world. What you "saw" in your dream, was a vision created by your brain.

You have the ability to see in different ways. Your brain receives the image of what materially appears before your eyes.

Also, you have the power to SEE by forming mental pictures which do not exist materially. You can project positive or negative possibilities, scenes and situations.

Fear or worry is the negative use of your imagination.

You project situations which have not occured and the same feelings are experienced as if they were real-anxiety, headaches, an upset stomach, a rise in blood pressures, acceleration of the heart beat, rapid breathing, constriction of arteries, etc.

If your imagination can be used in negative, destructive ways, you can also deliberately use it in a positive, constructive way and get positive results.

Worry and fear are fed by negative information-by seeing negatives scenes. Faith, poise, confidence and assurance are nourished by positive information-by seeing positive scenes.

I have trained myself to see God at work in me, to see His faithfulness, His generosity, His power and His abundant Life. I see Him and I have courage, assurance, peace and happiness.

Some people walk amidst beauty and never ponder it.

They live where love abounds but are never conscious of it.

Some walk among the flowers but never smell them. They hear a baby cry, or watch a hummingbird suspended before a lily, but never see God in these wonders.

Human persons are created in God's image, to walk and talk, to live and plan with Him. When He is not welcome, there is a vacuum. Emptiness, loneliness, meaninglessness and insecurity dominate.

The Bible says, sin brings death. Not to see God is a terrible sin. Solomon said, where there is no vision the people perish. -Prov 29:18 When you lose the vision of God, you are dead!

-Dr. T.L. Osborn

Facts About Biblical Healing

2009-12-12T11:29:00.000-06:00

by Dr. T.L. Osborn
Many people believe that God sometimes heals sick people, but they have not known that physical healing is part of God's salvation for everyone.

They see other people healed through faith and prayer, but they question whether healing is God's will for them. Meanwhile they may do all that they can to get well through medical science or natural means, whether they think it is God's will for them to be healed or not.

If it is not God's will for us to be well, it would be wrong to seek recovery through any means.

If it is God's will for us to be well, then the biblical way of recovery through prayer and trust in His promises is the good way for a believer.

The Bible makes the will of God about physical healing as clear as it does about spiritual salvation. When He promises to do a thing, it is His will to do that thing.

The biblical scriptures conclusively promulgate the fact that God is both The Savior and The Healer of His people; that it is always His will to save and to heal those who desire to trust Him.

Walk by Faith - Not by the Senses

2009-12-10T12:00:00.000-06:00

Our senses often repudiate God's word. They argue and contradict the Bible insisting that the blessing is not real because we cannot feel or see its manifestation.

But the biblical faith calmly declares: It is written. God's word declares it, so it is true. I accept it.

To walk by faith means to give God's word the preeminence over our physical senses and human logistics. -2Cor 5:7

To walk by sight means to give our senses and our human logistics the preeminence over God's word.

Faith is God's way. It is contrary to the natural way. God says, My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are you ways my ways. -Isa 55:8

God's way is for us to keep our mind, our ears, our eyes and our heart occupied with His word while He brings to pass its manifestation.

The human way is to keep our mind on the disease, our ears tuned to human logic, our eyes on physical symptoms and our heart filled with fear and apprehension.

But God's order for making His words health to all our flesh is to give all of our attention to His word ONLY; to believe it and to confess it, even if physical symptoms may contradict what He says.

God's first call to you and to me, if we want to follow Him, is to forsake our ways and our thoughts -Isa 55:7 because, as He says, My thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are you ways my ways. -Isa 55:8

God calls those things which be not as though they were. -Romans 4:17 He pronounced the blind man healed while he was still blind, and he received his sight. -Luke 18:42 He declared the lepers cleansed while the disease was still apparent, and as they went away, they were healed. -Luke 17:12-19 At the tomb of Lazarus, Jesus prayed: Father, I thank you that you have heard me. -John 11:41 He said that while Lazarus was still dead. He knew that God had heard His prayer for Lazarus to be raised from the dead. That was faith.

Faith means that we believe God has already done what we asked Him to do, even before we see the results manifested. We believe this because we know we have asked for a blessing that is provided for us in the death of Jesus Christ. We believe that God has answered our prayer, not because we see than answer manifested, but because God's word declares that we will receive what we ask for in faith. In this way, we also call those things which not be as though they were. -Romans 4:17

Four Confessions

2009-12-09T12:00:00.002-06:00

1) Some say, "I'll have the blessing some day."
2) Others ponder, "It's wonderful. I should have it, but I can't seem to receive it. I don't understand."
3) The realist says, "When I feel it and see it, I'll know that I have it."
4) But the believer with the positive faith says, "I have it now. It is written. It is mine."

Biblical faith rests entirely on what the word of God says. It is independent of our natural senses. Faith is the reality of what the senses may register as non-existent. There is a continual conflict between our senses and our faith. -Gal 5:1-17

Gal 5:16-17
I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh. 17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish. NKJV

Three Attitudes

2009-12-08T12:00:00.001-06:00

There are three attitudes with which people regard God's written word:

1. They AGREE that the word of God is true. They see the word. They admire it and read it. They may memorize whole chapters of it and recite them. They love the Bible and respect its contents.

They say: "The biblical promises are true - but not in my case. I don't understand why I cannot receive the blessings promised, but I know the word is true. It is a wonderful book. I believe it."

But that is as far as they go; they never act on what the Bible says. Biblical promises are to them a dogma, a creed, a doctrine to be venerated.

2. They BELIEVE the word of God when they SEE or FEEL its effects. We hear them say: "I never received healing when they prayed for me, but I believe I was blessed." Others say: "I FELT something when I prayed, so I believe God heard me." Still others may say, "Oh, I have prayed so often, but I never FEEL anything." They will believe only if they see or feel. This is never faith.

3. They BELIEVE God's word and ACT upon His promises. These are the people who have biblical faith. You hear them say:

If God says it, then it is true. -Num 23:19, Jos 23:14, 1Ki 8:56, Isa 38:7;55:11, Eze 12:25, Mat 24:35, 1Pe 1:25

If God' word says, By His stripes I am healed, then I am healed. -Isa 53:5, 1Pe 2:24

If God promises to supply all my needs, -Phil 4:19 then He is doing it.

If God says that he is the strength of my life, -Psa 27:1 then He is.

They always act accordingly. You will hear them say:
"God is what He says He is."
"I am what God's word says I am."
"I have what God says I have."
"I can do what God says I can do."
"God will do what His word says He will do."

They act on the premise, depending on the integrity of God's word. For them, He watches over His word to perform it, -Jer 1:12 to see that, as Solomon said, There hath no failed one word of all of His good promise, which He has promised. -1Kings 8:56.

God's Promise - The Sure Foundation

2009-12-07T12:00:00.003-06:00

The Bible says: Attend to my words; incline your ears to my saying. Let them not depart from your eyes; keep them in the minds of your heart. For they are life to those that find them, and health to all their flesh. -Pro 4:20-22

In this bible passage, Solomon instructs us to keep our mind, our ears, our eyes and our heart occupied with God's promise alone. this allows no place for fear, unbelief or discouragement. When we do this, the Bible says that God's word will produce health in all our flesh. -Pro 4:22 He sends His word and heals us. Psa 107:20

God has equipped every person with five natural senses: hearing, tasting, smelling, felling and seeing. These are physical senses that equip us for functioning in this natural world.

But God has also dealt to every person a measure of faith. -Romans 12:3

Our five senses are natural and physical, but our faith is spiritual.

It is through our five senses that we gain knowledge in our world, but it is not through our senses that we know God. We know Him through our faith. We walk by faith, not by sight. -2Cor 5:7

Many who pray for blessings from God do not believe they have received the answer until they feel or see the results manifested. They have not yet learned what faith is.

Receive Your Healing

2009-12-06T15:53:00.001-06:00

Many people pray for years for blessings which God has promised, but they will not believe that they have received the answer until they can feel and see it. This is not faith.

Faith means that you are convinced that what God has promised, and what you asked for, is yours; that you have received it even before you can see or feel it.

Biblical faith is based on God's promises alone.

It is here in our natural mind (our human logistics) and our spiritual faith engage their greatest conflicts. It is the struggle of our reason against what God's word says.

We pray for healing, but sometimes the answer is not manifested at once. We may still feel the pain or the fever. God' word declares that by His stripes we are healed. -Isa 53:5, 1 Pe 2:24. Our reason argues that the disease is still present, but we refuse human logistics and we look only to the word of God. We do not give attention to what we see or feel, but only what God says in His word-and we act according. This is biblical faith.

More Miracle Testimonies From Togo

2009-12-03T15:18:00.002-06:00

Tsévié will never forget such events. Seniors will tell their juniors; grandfathers will tell their grandchildren that once upon the time in 2009 during the two weeks in the middle of the month before the last month of the year after the death of the great president EYADEMA in the fifth year of the reign of his son FAURE their came a laughing, cheerful and loving white lady from the country of the mix colored skin (AMERICA). It is said that she can heal the sick and has been doing it since her childhood. Her parents also had been doing it all their life and the father is still preaching, teaching and healing all over the world though he is old. “If people all over the world trusted them, then let us do the same,” says the rumor in town. Everybody was excited; everybody talked about it. Bringing the sick to hear the words that proceeded out of her mouth and to be healed was the mind of the people of Tsévié and the villages around. Tsévié encountered the most exciting days of its history and it was wonderful. Even though the seminar and the festival are passed, Tsévié is still under the shock and miracles are still happening.

The next Sunday after the end of the festival, “Attendance jumped up in our churches and did not come down to this date but rather it’s still going higher,” said some pastors in town. A worker in a church said, “This is long and lasting effect evangelism.” Miracles are still happening. Those that hear of the testimonies agree to be born again and follow that miracle worker (JESUS). Some said, “So what that lady said wasn’t a joke. She left but Jesus is still doing miracles. Let’s key in before it is late”.

These are some of the testimonies:

A lady said to the interpreter of Dr LADONNA OSBORN: “Me, I worshipped Satan since childhood but I have not seen such great number of miracles. Now I had four evenings with JESUS and He made me to see unending wonders. I was skeptical but the last night (Saturday) that I received Jesus, I discovered that it was peace that I needed in my life and that peace was in Jesus. And with him, there is no sickness”.
Another lady said: “My husband is dead of AIDS. I was contaminated also but after the last day of the festival, I felt a pressure in me to go and check myself. When I went, the test was negative so I showed the previous results of four other hospitals to the doctor. The results were the proof that I had AIDS for four years and now the fifth result shows I am without AIDS. I went to the other hospitals where I was tested before and the results were still negative. I am no more infected. Doctors say that it is a miracle and they advice me to serve my GOD faithfully. “

This is the testimony of a lady: “I had waist and chest pain since 2006. After the second day of the festival, I went home and in my dream, I saw something green coming out of my arm as if somebody was pulling it out. The next Sunday night after afternoon service in the church I attended, I had the same dream. But this time, the green thing was coming out of my right leg. On Monday, I can bend and do all sorts of movement I could not do before, I can breathe deeply and raise my arms and still have no pain.”
These few days of seminary and festival had a very great impact on the town. The people are expecting the pastors of the town to be able to reproduce such miracles and healings in their churches. Many are the pastors are changing their message and beginning to teach the gospel in its fullness in their churches. But some are orthodox and have to keep to their law or else they lose their job. Then there are those that do not want to change when they receive new teaching that will help them to grow. Those that are teachable and want to learn are succeeding in the work of Jesus.

Daughter, Your Faith Has Made You Whole

2009-12-03T12:40:00.003-06:00

"I had a high fever and my feet swelled as big as they could without bursting, and when the sickness left, I could not walk. My legs were useless. The only way I could get around was to scoot myself along on the ground with my hands."

"I attended the Osborn Crusade in Surabaja, arriving about 2:00 in the afternoon so that I could be close to the platform for the service."

"The third meeting I attended, I was instantly healed. My legs became strong again, and I got up on my feet and walked as well as I ever could. I was restored and normal again. I thank the Lord Jesus Christ for healing me so that I can now walk again. I want to serve Him. "

Raped, Brutalized and Possessed by Demons

2009-12-02T12:18:00.002-06:00

Betty Andiru had been possessed by tormenting demon spirits. Her insanity had resulted from hatred and bitter resentment which had raged within her toward those who had wounded and abused her.

She had attended a convent, then guerrilla fighters and armed vigilantes had begun looting and destroying the country.

They came in the night and captured Betty, raping and debasing her. She was brutalized and insulted, used and humiliated until venomous hatred possessed her, and she vowed to get revenge.

As she crouched in disgrace, like a wounded animal, she seethed with vengeance and retaliation.

On day in her torture and anguish, a satanic power came over Betty and she became possessed by demons. They made her scream, bark and bit at people like a wild, wounded dog that had gone mad.

From that day, she became vicious, and no one could tame her. She had been insane for 13 years.

Then the news came about our crusade, and friend brought Betty to the meetings. For three days, she screamed and barked, and had to be kept beyond the crowd to prevent her from injuring anyone.

Daisy was preaching about the Jesus life and how His love-power could give anyone a new beginning. She urged people to forgive the wrongs of the past and to let Jesus change their lives.

During sane intervals, Betty cried to the Lord for mercy.

Suddenly, as Daisy preached, the demons went out of Betty, and she was made completely whole. The people around her knew something had happened.

The Word of God, spoken through Daisy, drove those spirits out of that poor woman.

She came to tell the multitude that she was healed. She wept and told everyone: "Forgive your enemies!"

Betty said, "I was insane. Demons possessed me because of my hatred. But Jesus forgave me. Now i can forgive everyone. I am healed. I have no enemies. I love everyone now. If you will forgive your past, Jesus will give you a new beginning, as Dr. Daisy says."

Betty is now a living witness. She goes about telling everyone the price of Hate, and the reward of Love.

Togo rejoices because of the Gospel

No Hope of Ever Walking Again

2009-12-01T12:46:00.002-06:00

(as told by Dr. T.L. Osborn)
Maria Theresa had been sent home from the hospital to die. She had no hope of ever walking again. Several operations left her worse than before. She prayed to die.

The news came of our crusade. She was carried and laid on the ground amidst the throng. Daisy preached about the woman bent double by a "spirit of infirmity".

Maria had rolled and agonized on the ground, in anguish and suffering. A painful bone disease deteriorated her spine and hips. (one had been dislocated for months.)

When Daisy spoke Christ's words, "Woman, be free!," Maria heard no more. She thought that it thundered and that a bolt of lightening had struck here. She was shocked to her feet, and healed, but was blinded by the power. She was stunned and she screamed for fear. People thought she was insane.

I went and caught her and brought her to Daisy, and when Daisy embraced her, her sight was restored, and she realized that she had been healed. She shouted, jumped and danced all over the platform and the mass of people was astounded.

Crawled Away to Die in the Jungle

2009-11-30T12:28:00.004-06:00

Domita Juma was a helpless victim of paralysis. Unable to stand or work, she crawled away from her home to die in the jungle. She was found by friends. At the hospital, several operations on her spine left her more helpless than before.

Carried to the Osborn Crusade in Njoro-Menengai, Kenya, she heard the gospel, believed on Christ and was totally healed. When Domtilla returned to her village to show her husband how she was healed, he proudly gave her his bicycle and said, "I never want to see you carrying heavy buckets of water on your head again. I give you my bicycle. You shall ride to the river for water because God gave you back to me with a new body!"

She goes all over her region, showing the people what God's miracle power did for her.

Born Without Eyes

2009-11-29T13:36:00.003-06:00

(as told by Daisy Osborn)
When little Simeon was born he had no eyeballs. The family and village was saddened, until , nine months later, they heard of the Osborn Crusade in Nakuru. The child was brought by its mother. T.L. preached: "The things that are impossible with men are possible with God." During the mass prayer, the mother believed. Within a few moments, tiny eyes formed.

The child could clearly see. By the next day, its eyes were normal - a creative miracle. One year later, our daughter, LaDonna went with me to visit the child at its village. It is a living miracle. Hundreds of people have trekked to that village to see the boy with the miracle eyes and have been saved.

The Hindu Who Saw Jesus

2009-11-28T11:16:00.003-06:00

I will never forget one night during a great crusade in Lucknow, India. Far to the edge of the crowd, there was a young student from the university - an agnostic - who hated everything that we were saying about Jesus Christ.

He was a member of the religious political party of India that had vowed to drive Christianity from their shores. He was a real fanatic.

He stood there with his arms folded across his chest, in a defiant mood. Then as we preached about Jesus, suddenly the Lord appeared right in front of him.

He opened His hands where the man could see His scars, and stretched them out toward the man. Then Jesus spoke these words,

"Behold my hands! I am Jesus!"

That arrogant young student fell to the ground, in the dust, weeping and c rying.

After he regained control of himself, he came running to the platform and grabbed the microphone with trembling hands, and appealed to the multitude:

"Accept this Jesus! What this man is telling us is true! I saw Him! I saw the scars in His hands! He is alive!"

Thousands of people that night believed on Jesus Christ.

Blind people, lepers, deaf mutes, cripples, invalids carried on cots, and all kinds of sickness were healed in that overwhelming crusade.

Final Day of Festivals - More Miracles

2009-11-21T16:31:00.005-06:00

This final day of the Festival of Faith & Miracles in Tsévié, Togo is proving to be a dramatic demonstration of the power of Christ over evil spirits.

Togo is more than 40% animist. They are idol worshippers. Fear of the power of juju dominates the lives of the Togolese. Witchdoctors prey on the people with deception and exploitation.
Tonight I preach about the Power in the Word of God. The people listen as I tell them, "Jesus has all authority. His power and authority are in His Words. When you believe in His authority and trust His Words, no evil spirit can control your life. The power of Jesus is greater than any other power."

As I quote the words of God and His promises to these dear people, demons begin to cry out through the people. Here and there the tormented screams of devils, having to loose their holds on people, are heard. I've heard these familiar screams all of my life. They are the final acts of control before the demons flee in defeat. Those previously tormented are restored to their right minds.

During the testimonies of healing so many people report how they were tormented by evil spirits, but now are delivered. Some were continually bitten by demons. Many felt something moving around in their bodies. Some felt pins pricking them. Others say that spirits moved around in their heads, preventing any sleep or rest.

In each case, during the preaching or during the prayer, the people feel these spirits leave their bodies. All symptoms of disease leave the people. They can now walk, see and function free of pain. It is moving to hear the stories of how their tormented lives are being touched and transformed by the power of God.

A man takes the microphone holding his son close. He is the king of this region. Years previously he became a Christian. But the witchdoctor was angry and tried to force him to return to juju. The king held firm, but the witchdoctor put a curse on the king's son. The boy was tormented. He could not sleep. He roamed at night. He could not be cured. During the festival the father brought his son and the boy is completely delivered. The people shout for joy hearing this great testimony affirming the power of God, as the boy smiles with a look divine peace on his face.
This town will never be the same. There is much to tell.

Thousands of people have accepted Christ. Scores of healing miracles have been reported. Many demon possessed have been delivered.

The people are filled with joy as they burst into song. One woman tells of her marvelous healing and then sings with the people, "This man Jesus has come. He has brought His healing miracles. Look at me. I am one of His miracles!".

Another woman sings and dances, saying, "There us no God like our God.
There is nothing too hard for Him. Come and see what He has done for me!"

More photos will be posted soon.

The Togo Mission continues as the people carry the light of Christ to their villages and communities. The seeds that we are planting, both through the books and through our face to face witness of Christ, will continue to produce eternal harvests.

Pray for these new believers. Pray for these pastors. Pray for each person who is now the hope for a better Togo.

I am praying for you also. Thanks for standing with us in this mission and in each of the missions that are being planned right now. The harvest truly is ripe!

The GOOD NEWS of Jesus breaks the bondage of Satan

2009-11-20T16:33:00.005-06:00

Every day in miracle evangelism is unique. There are no formulas. No rituals. The only constants are the needs of people, the healing power of Jesus and a person willing to announce the GOOD NEWS OF JESUS. Day 3 begins.

When I arrive at the "Place of Trees" this evening, the crowd is small. I soon learn that today is Market Day in Tsévié so the people will have to come late. Rather than miss the opportunity to use the remaining sunlight, I open the Festival and ask people who have been healed to come and tell their stories. About a dozen people come to the platform. Each is full of joy as they tell their story with great annimation. The people laugh and rejoiced with those who are healed.

Gradually as the sun is setting I begin to teach the people the wonderful story of God's love for them. I say, "God's Story is GOOD NEWS for you!" Then beginning in Genesis I tell that God made them in His image to share His life. Then I tell them how the devil came to deceive and the first man and woman believed his lies and turned away from God. But the good news is that God loved people so much that He came in Jesus to suffer their punishment and to reclaim them as His children.

I tell them the wonderful good news of how they can receive the life of Jesus today and become children of God.

Before I ask for decisions for Christ, the people are raising their hands and waving them ao they can be included in the prayer.

There is no greater joy than helping people to know Jesus Christ and to experience a spiritual new birth. Thank you for helping us come to Togo.

Then I pray for the many sick who have gathered. By this time it is dark. The few lights do little to give light to the multitude. The largest crowd yet has gathered. I can hear the vast multitude calling out to God for a miracle.

It's time for the people to act their faith. Everywhere people are bending, trying to move their legs. At the side of the platform a woman is trying to walk. She is on her feet but unable to stand. She has little strength. I leave the platform to help her. Allowing her to lean on my back with her arms around my shoulders I give her strength to begin walking. I feel her weight on me. Her feet are dragging behind us both. Then I feel strength coming into her body. She straightens up and stands. I turn around and she is standing on her own with her hands raised to heaven.

By this time people are pressing me on every side, wanting me to touch their sick bodies. I return to the platform to find many who have already come to give public testimony to the miracle that they have received from Christ.

Those who could not walk for six, 12, 20 years are walking. A girl who was cursed with witchcraft and had leprosy is delivered. A young woman who was epileptic describes her miracle.

Some tell that they were healed when they walked on the field. Others were healed during the prayer.

A young man tells of his amazing conversion. He says, "I was dead but now I'm alive."

An old 80 year old woman comes to me. She could not walk and she has been blind. Tonight she is walking and she can see.

There is dancing and singing, jumping and running as the life of Jesus and His healing love empowers the people.

After hearing scores of testimonies, It's time to let the people go home. They don't want to leave. Many are continuing to act their faith in the power of Jesus. The miracles will continue even as people find their way home.

Friends, the name of Jesus is being heard in Tsévié tonight! His wonderful works are being declared.

The Togo Mission continues!

Many Miracles Reported in Togo

2009-11-19T17:38:00.001-06:00

Come with us to Day 2 of the Tsévié Festival of Faith and Miracles.
Word us spreading throughout the town and surrounding villages that
Jesus is healing people at "The Place of Trees."

Tonight when we arrive at the grounds thousands of people have already
gathered. But the majority of the multitude arrives after dark. It's
impossible to see the edge of the crowd with the sparce available
lighting.

I teach the people from the Bible story of the blind beggar who cried
out to Jesus with faith and received his sight. Over and over I
emphasized to the people, "There is no god like our God!" Our God
hears the cry of a blind man. Our God talks to beggars. Our God opens
the eyes of the blind. Our God has all power. This God has sent me to
you to tell you that He knows about you. He wants to come to you and
deliver you from the power of the devil."

Faith begins to rise in the hearts of the people. Thousands of people
respond to the message and ask Jesus to come into their lives. It is
moving to see their eagerness to receive Jesus and His new life.

Then I pray for the sick. There are so many. But the power of the Lord
is always present to heal. It is the confidence that I have in the
power of Christ's love that gives me the courage to stand before these
precious people and tell them that God wants to heal them.

After the prayer I tell the people to do what they could not do
before. The multitude turns into a mass of movement as people begin
stretching, bending and walking. Gradually the platform is being
filled with people ready to give a testimony to their healing miracle.

A man has been under a juju curse for 10 years, sick, tormented and
unable to be delivered. He says, "During the prayer I felt something
leave my body. I am now healed and Jesus has come to live in me."

A mother comes with her three year old child. The baby was born with
epilepsy. During the prayer he was having a seizure. But suddenly the
boy became calm and he is healed."

Many who were crippled are now demonstrating their healing. They run,
jump, rejoice and thank God for their miracle.

A young girl was bringing her epileptic sister to the Festival for
healing. But before she could come she fell very ill. People carried
her to the Festival and the epileptic sister also came along. During
the prayer both sisters were completely healed and came to give
testimony.

A football player had become paralyzed in one leg and could no longer
play. He would weep watching teams play the sport, knowing that he
would never be able to play again. Then he heard that Jesus was
healing people at "The Place of Trees". He came and accepted Jesus.
Now he demonstrates his healing by jogging across the platform with
the gait and confidence of a professional athlete.

The people shout and clap and one after another people give their
testimony of Christ's healing power.

This is a night to remember in Tsévié. The words of truth are echoing
throughout the town, "There is no god like our God. Jesus is His name!"

Festival of Miracles: First Night

2009-11-18T15:28:00.004-06:00

The people gathered at "The Place of the Trees," in Tséviè, Togo to hear the Gospel. I preach about the Power of Jesus to forgive sin and to heal diseases. I tell them with boldness, "The power of Jesus is greater than the power of juju."

A sea of hands reaches heavenward as thousands of Togolese receive Jesus as their Savior. The people rejoice knowing that they have received the life of Jesus.

During the prayer for the sick the people cry out to God in faith, putting into practice the truths that I've preached.

Then it is time for them to act their faith. Darkness has settled and the few available lights are not sufficient for the people to find their way to the platform to testify. I continued to encourage those who are healed to come and give public witness of the miracle they have received from Christ.

All of a sudden it's like a bolt of electricity shoots through the multitude. A man begins running across the platform. For seven years he has been blind and unable to walk. He is completely healed. A woman begins running who has not walked in 35 years. A blind woman is seeing. A woman who could not bend for many years is bending, jumping and running. So many amazing miracles of healing! The people are shouting and clapping and shouting for joy!

This town is witnessing the power of the risen Jesus.

One of the pastors says, "We will have to change our message. We've preached that the day of miracles is passed. Now our mouths are open in a amazement. We are seeing miracles with our own eyes."

Rejoice with us. Believe with us that tomorrow will be even greater.
This is Bible day evangelism.

Jesus is indeed alive! We are His witnesses!

Everyone is Working

2009-11-18T15:00:00.000-06:00

Damiano's Miracle

2009-11-16T20:03:00.008-06:00

Damiano Bitatinya's miracle shook the city of Kampala and every one of the multitude of people who witnessed it take place. God impressed us to include this special miracle because the same compassion and love that touched and healed this poor, helpless man, can touch you too as you read about it.

This miracle account is a modern up-to-date chapter in the continuing Book of Acts. Read it with faith and expect to receive from God whatever yo need, in Jesus' name!

I saw this poor man, clad in rages, near the Lugogo Stadium, staggering on trembling, incoherent legs, propped on two long poles, struggling alone toward our crusade grounds. Red dust was thick. The press of people was frantic. They were carrying lame and sick folks, leading the blind, etc. But Damiano's lonely silhouette of despair would not leave my eyes.

As I watched him from our car window, the Lord whispered to me: "God raises the poor out of the dust, and lifts the needy out of the dunghill; that he may set him with the princes of his people." -Psalm 1113:7-8

I saw the nation of Uganda, in that forsaken, unloved, despairing man - alone, without hope or faith.

Daisy and I had come to this despairing, looted and brutalized nation, to tell them: "Uganda, God loves you! God values you! God paid for you! He needs you! If you will believe on Him and reach out to Him, He will save and heal you and give you a new beginning!"

As you read this, God is saying that to you, as much as He was saying it to those people of Uganda. His touch of wonder is reaching out to YOU -now!

We passed the poor man by as we rode in on the grounds, but when I reached the platform, I could not erase the silhouette of that lonely, hopeless and unloved human person from my mind.

The Lord impressed me to call for him and to make an example of him before the multitude, to underscore the fact that God paid the same price for each person, and loved each one equally, regardless of how poor or sick or sinful anyone may be.

When I went to the microphone, I described the man to the people and they found him and helped him to come to me on the platform.

There before the multitude, I used him as an object lesson. I said, "Even if you are poor, in rags, alone and sick, God values you. He has sent Daisy and me to tell you, HE NEEDS YOU! HE PAID FOR YOU! TRUST HIM, CALL ON HIM and HE WILL SAVE and HEAL YOU; he will GIVE YOU His NEW LIFE, and A NEW BEGINNING!"

The people clapped and wept at the same time.

I called the poor man by his name: "Damiano, you are special to God. you've begged and crawled long enough! I bring you good news! You are not forsaken. Jesus paid for you. He needs you! In His name I love you. Only believe!"

I told the people: "What God does for this man, He will do for every Ugandan who believes!"

I told Damiano about Jesus and he accepted Christ. I led him in prayer to be saved.

Then I pulled Damiano to me and I loved Him. I called out with a loud voice: "Oh, you spirit of infirmity, leave this dear man forever, in Jesus' name!" Then I held him and imparted God's love and the healing presence of Jesus Christ.

I took the two poles from his hands and said, "Damiano, you've staggered long enough. Animals crawl, but you are a man in God's image! Let's go! Walk! Jesus heals you! You are no longer a beggar! You are valuable! You are a child of God, with dignity and new life!"

Damiano walked, taking strong steps! Then amidst tears, he broke into a glorious smile! The miracle was done! He flung his arms around me in a grasp of love and gratitude. I'll never forget that embrace. A beggar had become a prince in God's family!

I said: "Damiano, thank you for your love! Daisy and I are richer now because you are our new brother." He was worth all that we did to bring God's love and miracle power to Uganda.

To Daisy and me, that is God's number one Job! To go to the forgotten, the lonely, the unloved, the disinherited, the sick, the fearful those in despair...to go in Jesus' name and to help them discover their value to God, and to humanity; to lift and heal and save them and to give them dignity, pride and salvation.

I told Damiano: "Sit in my chair. you are one of God's choice people now!" As he sat there, smiling and happy, he looked like a prince.

We arranged for Damiano to have good food, a bath, a bed and new clothes. The next day, he came looking like a re-created wonder of God's love and power. he embraced me and laid his head on my shoulder. We were new friends!

Damiano is on of thousands transformed in the Kampala Crusade. For nearly four decades, in over 70 nations, we have seen Love's miracles like this. In preachers and workers, it is another kind of miracle. Their message is changed from condemnation and judgment to love and GOOD news.

Damiano, our new brother, has been raised from despair to become a member of royalty through the compassion and powerful love of Jesus Christ.

These People Are Different Today

2009-11-14T16:09:00.004-06:00

The Gospel Seminar in Togo is a tremendous success. Seven hundred fifty sets of Osborn books have been distributed. For four days I have taught this gathering of pastors and Christian believers the powerful truths of effective Gospel ministry.

The setting has been simple. The weather has been hot. All natural circumstances have been difficult. Nevertheless, the power of truth has broken through the walls of tradition, of confusion, of superstition and of religious limitation. Jesus has revealed Himself to these men and women in His Word, in His example, in His suffering, in His resurrection and in His words of commission. Like the Apostle Paul these believers have learned to say, "I want to know Him IN THE POWER OF HIS RESURRECTION."

It is this resurrection power that now works through Christ's followers to continue His ministry on earth. The Togolese will never be the same.

My interpreter said to me (after the teaching), "These people are different today from Day One. I know these people. Do you see it? They are not the same as they were when they came to this Seminar. And they will never go back to the old way of thinking and living. They are changed. Togo will never be the same."

Now we are focusing our attention on the Festival of Faith & Miracles that will begin in a few days. This town will see a demonstration of the resurrected Jesus. Tsevie will never be the same.

It is not too late to partner with us in this miracle mission.

Pastors from Tsevie and surrounding villages gather under a canvas roof to receive instruction from Dr Osborn on Gospel ministry that lasts. She lays a foundation for her teaching emphasizing the importance of evangelism among the unchurched and unity among the believers. Dr Osborn begins in Genesis to show God's plan for people in the beginning. It is a plan of dignity, purpose equality and harmony. She states, "If we do not know God's plan on the beginning, we cannot fully understand what He did for us through Jesus Christ at the cross."

And all the people saw him walking and praising God.

2009-11-10T07:12:00.002-06:00

"I had a fever for four days and was sick in bed for a month, suffering awful agony in my body, especially in my legs. I would just lay in bed and cry with pain in my legs.

"Then after that sickness and fever left me, I cound I could not stand up and walk. When I tried, my legs would not straighten out or hold me up. From that time, the only way I could move about was to use my hands and scoot along in a sitting position. I continued to suffer much pain.

"Then I heard of the Osborn Crusade in Surabaja, and I went there. I listened to the gospel, and when prayer was made for the sick,

I believed what I heard, and was instantly healed.

"I have been a Muslim all my life, but now I have accepted Jesus Christ as my Savior and I will serve Him always. I am perfectly healed and can walk as good as I ever could before I was sick. I am very thankful for this miracle by Jesus Christ."

Kariuki The Kikuyu

2009-11-09T20:26:00.001-06:00

I can never forget Kariuki, the Kikuyu maniac who ran across the hills of Kikuyuland for 17 years, practically nude and demented, clutching rubbish in his arms, running from one village to another, putting it down and desperately gathering more objects in his deranged preoccupation with debris and worthless rubble.

A young Christian believer reached out to him in the kind of love that sends you to the top. He conceived a way to entice Kariuki into his pickup, in order to bring him to the crusade.

Out on the crusade field, among thousands of people, the believer stood beside Kariuki who was still clutching his armful of rubbish. We were entirely unaware of them being in the crowd as we taught about God’s love that day.

Of all the great miracles that we have witnessed across the world-and we may have seen as many or more than any couple has ever been privileged to see-practically all of them have taken place out on the field, amidst the people, without us knowing anything about the need or the miracle until it had already occurred.
Kariuki was one of them.

The Miracle of Seed Power

Our God is in His word, like life is in seed. When the seed is planted in people, it produces of its kind.
The healing seed of God’s healing promises, heals people.
The miracle seed of His miracle promises, produces miracles in people.
The saving seeds of God’s love-plan produce salvation in people.
That day we taught about God’s love-plan and about how He values people. After the teaching, as we preayed for the multitude, the Spirit of the Lord came upon Kariuki in a way which I cannot explain. In a moment of time, the tormenting evil spirits left him and he was well and normal.

The believer realized that Kariuki was really healed, and brought him ot the platform to tell the multitude what had happened.His tattered clothes did not cover his nudity. His hair was long, matted and full of fleas. His beard was long. His body emitted a terrible odor.But I could see that this man had been visited by the Lord.
The Transforming Power of Love I took him by the shoulders and said, “Kariuki, you just look beautiful.” That lifted him and helped avoid embarrassment or his indecent appearance before the people.
I said, “Kariuki, you are my brother. My Father and your Father is the same. We are one.” I pulled him to me and embraced him, then I looked at him again.

I said, “Kariuki, I am so proud of you. My Father created you. He has a plan for you that nobody in the world can carry out as well as you can. You are going to go places.” Then I embraced him again.
Then he talked to the people and gave the most intriguing report of how he had lived in tormented compulsion to run from village to village, gathering debris. He was amazed at the miracle he had received and thanked everyone for their prayers and for their love.

I told some of the pastors to provide him a hot bath, to get his hair and beard trimmed, to buy him clothes and a beautiful necktie, to get him a Bible and to bring him back.

The Miracle on Display

The next day, Kariuki was sitting on the platform. You would have thought he was one of the ministers. In fact, he never failed to sit next to Daisy on the platform during the rest of the crusade. He always had a happy expression on his face and was always anxious to tell anyone about his miracle.

In each meeting, I would ask Kariuki to publicly read, for me, the scripture lesson which would be the basis for my teaching. He had learned to read, prior to his insanity, so his lecture was a beautiful witness of God’s love for people

Winners Around the World

Around the world, millions of human lives are wasting in the dirt-sitting, waiting, withering, dying:
Not growing, but groveling;
Not producing, but procrastinating;
Not building, but wilting;
Not self-sustaining, but self-condemning;
Not attaining, but complaining.

The noble and beautiful desire of our lives is to salvage human beings, to give them self-discover, to teach them self-development, to help the in self-discipline, to inspire them for self-fulfillment and to motivate in them self-esteem.

Our desire is God’s desire; it is to show people His love, to tell them the price He paid for the, to inform them of their value to Him, to show them the way to find Him.
Our desire is to lift people…
By new faith in God,
By new faith in themselves,
By new meaning in life,
By new dreams to inspire them,
By new ideals to live by,
By new purposes to accomplish.

We know that is God’ desire, so we are committed to success in order to fulfill His dream as His co-workers. Even when we must perspire to press through the profusion of prejudiced resistance to reach our goals with God, we do not quit-we are winners.

Contemplating God's Abundance

2009-11-08T15:41:00.001-06:00

Contemplating God’s abundance helped us to draw courage and renewed faith to meet our task. We learned to release Jesus within us to stand up tall in our boat and to calm our storm.

Knowing that God has big ideas for us, we have always been re-energized to thing big with Him.

When we were in the Papua New Guinea mountains, teaching those precious people these secrets, I was intrigued by the Pidgin English translation of I Timothy 1:12 which, with my adaptation to make it understandable to you, goes something like this:

This Big Fellow that belongs to me, Jesus Christ; he gives me strong power. He thinks I am good enough to do all of his works and he put me in the big work of His. For this I thank this Big Fellow, Jesus, who lives inside me now.

Clearly, the Papua New Guinea people have captured the essence: God has big ideas for you and for me.

John 1:12 is a big idea: To all who receive Jesus Christ, God gives the power to become children of God.

God dares to believe in you enough to transform you into His own child, as quick as you believe on Jesus and welcome Him into your life.

Mark 11:24 is a big idea: What things so ever you desire, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

God has such grand ideas about you that he commits the honor of his world to see that if you ask Him for anything you desire, and you believe His word, you will have it.

John 14:12-13 is another big idea: Anyone believing in me will do the same miracles I have done, and even greater ones, because I am going to be with the Father. You can ask Him for anything, using my name,. and I will do it.

What trust God puts in us!

David looked into the heavens. He considered how big God is. Then he began to think big.

Why did our Lord make billions of stars? Wouldn’t a few thousand have sufficed? If he wants you limited or impoverished on this earth, why such an extravaganza in the heavens?

How could God want you to live in deprivation, when he created so much wealth all around you?

Why did He make such huge mountains and so many of them – full of treasures? What purpose would it serve if His followers are to live in scarcity and insufficiency?

Why did God create such vast oceans and fill them with such wealth, if He wants His people to exist in meagerness?

Why did He create so many huge trees? Why such vast deserts, such lush jungles, such enormous plains and such rich valleys? And why so many of them?

No parsimonious, tightfisted God cold ever have created the abundance that you live amidst.

Who is so great a God as our God? Psa 77:13
How great are His works! Psa 42:5
Great are His tender mercies. Psa 119:156
The Lord has done great things for us. Psa 126:3
Great is our Lord and of great power. Psa 147:5

When you consider Gods’ Big Connection, your mind stretches, your imagination enlarges, and you think big thoughts- you get big ideas. And when you think big, then you talk big and you act big.

Throughout our world ministry, whenever my wife, Daisy, and I faced impossibilities and our faith was tested, we got away from limited horizons and went to the mountains, or to the desert, or to the ocean and contemplated the greatness and the generosity of our Father. Our minds were s-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-d to God’s infinity.

We realized that our Lord had created all of earth’s abundance, and we were in His class of being.

Liberated from Limitations

2009-11-07T15:16:00.002-06:00

Michelangelo bough a chunk of marble which others esteemed inferior. When asked why, he replied:

“Because there is an angel locked in that marble, and I must set it free.”

When I think of any one who is imprisoned by a sense of inferiority because of race, color, social, academic or economic status, or when I see someone who is lonely, abused, discouraged or afraid, I know that inside that individual is a super person whom I must find the way to set free.

The Big Idea

I gave a television address on the subject:
Boo the Taboos,
Choose the Glad News.

Religions dwarf minds, make beggars out of princes, robots out of creators and turn freedom into subjugation by their thesaurus of “no-nos” and “don’t dos.”

All the time, God is saying:
Things beyond your seeing, your hearing and your imagining, are prepared for those who love me; and I have revealed them. – 1 Cor 2:9-10

God wants you ..
To desire His best,
To inquire of His way,
To admire His provisions,
To aspire to His blessings,
To require His abundance,
To perspire (if need be) to attain His resources,
To acquire His lifestyle,
To inspire His posterity.

God wants you liberated from all limitations imposed upon you by any person, condition or system. You need nobody’s permission to be healthy, wealthy, happy and successful. God wants to free your wings of desire so they can lift you to new frontiers and new fortunes.
God only has one idea about you, and He has never changed His mind. His idea is: To share His life and His abilities with you, to make you happy, healthy, talented and prosperous, to make you into a super human person.
Jesus summed up His Father’s will for you when He said: I came that you might have life-abundance of it. –John 10:10

Transcend Mediocrity

As your wings of desire are freed to soar, you will discover fresh new faith blossoming in you for GOOD things, HAPPY times, HEALTHY living, BIG dreams-abundance, success and contentment.

Religion says “NO. You are not worthy-not good enough. You must be humble and patient. Be content with your fate. The best may be for others, but not for you. It might make you bad or proud.”

This book proves that you are destined to see your desires become realities.
You will discover the magnitude of God’s glad news and you will transcend mediocrity and commonality.
You will blossom into the excellence for which God designed you.
No good thing will he withhold from those who walk uprightly. Psalm 84:11
God has now begun a good work in you; He will complete it. Phil 1:6
Delight yourself in Him and he shall give you the desires of your heart. Psa 37:4

Fix Your Thoughts

2009-11-06T15:16:00.000-06:00

Phil 4:8-9
And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing. Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.
Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Keep putting into practice all you learned and received from me—everything you heard from me and saw me doing.

Then the God of peace will be with you.

No Longer Guilty

2009-11-06T10:49:00.000-06:00

A troubled man attended one of our crusades in Latin America. From his youth, he hated protestant Christians. His pleasure was to steal from them or to destroy their crops or business or property. He and his friends would ambush them in the countryside, take their belongings and often beat them.

He delighted in the persecuting them and he told us that even helped to kill some of them.

Jesus Christ had become real to his wife soon after they were married. Quite often their relations had been strained because of religious conflict. For nineteen years she had prayed that her husband would have a personal encounter with the Lord.

The man attended our crusade the night I talked about the way Christ suffered in or place and how He was crucified to pay the penalty for our sins.

For the first time in his life, that man realized that God created human persons to walk and talk with Him in the garden of His presence; that we are made in God’s own image and since God is love, it is his big love-plan that we share his love; that hatred, evil and murder are from Satan who caused humanity to sin against God in the beginning.

He had not realized that sin was the barrier between him and God, nor that God longed for fellowship with each person so much that he gave His only Son to restore them to Himself.

The death of Christ suddenly became a reality to the man.

You Are Already Forgiven

He told us, “As I began to think about my hatred and the brutal things I had done against innocent people, I realized that every evil deed I had committed helped nail Jesus to the cross. I visualized Him hanging there between two thieves, enduring the punishment of my sins so that I would not held guilty before God.

“As you taught, you made me realize that I was the one who should have been crucified, because I was the one who had committed evil. Jesus was innocent. He was perfect.

“I found myself weeping. I wanted to cry out, ‘Why You Lord? Why are you being crucified? What evil did You ever do? I was the one they should have crucified! I am the guilty one!’”

That dear man rushed to the front of the big arena as soon as I invited people to express their faith in Christ. His devoted wife stood beside him as this persecutor of Christians fell to his keens and accepted forgiveness for all of his sins.

He had felt deep guild and remorse. Now it was all gone and he realized that God held none of his sins against him.

How Great Are God's Riches

2009-11-05T19:44:00.000-06:00

Rom 11:33
Oh, how great are God's riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways!
New Living Translation

Your Debt Is Wiped Out

2009-11-05T13:28:00.000-06:00

The word “forgiven” means “to grant relief from payment of a debt or obligation.” Jesus Christ paid our debt for us. The penalty of our sins is paid in full, like a debt that has been paid off.

Jesus assumed our guilt and suffered the full penalty of our sins, in our name, in our place.

The entire debt against the one who believes on Christ is wiped out. There is absolutely no sin which can be held against anyone who believes in Jesus Christ. Such a person shall never have to face God’s judgment for sin. Jesus did that, in our name, when He suffered the judgment of our sins in His death for us on the cross.

Jesus said, I say emphatically that anyone who believes in God who sent me has eternal life. And will never be damned ( or condemned or judged) for his or her sins, but has already passed out of death into life. –John 5:24LB

There is now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, -Romans 8:1 for show shall accuse those whom God has chosen? God himself declares them not guilty! Can anyone, then, condemn them?...Jesus Christ is the one who died (for them) who then can separate us from the love of Christ? –Romans 8:33-35

As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us. -Psalm 103: 12

God’s big love-plan provides the way for us to be restored to God as though no sin had ever been committed.

The Osborn Ministry team will be leaving for Togo in just a few short days where thousands more miracles and healings will be manifest. Please pray and believe for supernatural results in this African nation and partner with us now by making a donation here.

Miracle of the Muslim Son

2009-11-04T07:18:00.000-06:00

San Fernando, Trinidad

One of the greatest miracles of all was the healing of Harold Khan, who was a Muslim lad, reared in a Muslim home. When he was on 12 years old, he was injured while playing football. His right leg was damaged so that all the growth stopped abruptly. An incurable bone disease resulted, affecting his left leg, too.

Since the accident, his body has grown as any robust youth, except for his right leg which never developed after the injury. It had already become five inches shorter than the left one and was much smaller. Harold walked with the aid of a special shoe for his dwarfed right leg, elevated on a five-inch platform. His left leg was bound in a steel hip-to-heal brace because of the bone disease affecting it.

News reached the Khan home of the Osborn crusade. Mrs. Khan wanted to take Harold, but was forbidden by the staunch Muslim father. But while he was away, she took her son at the risk of family disfavor and attend the great meeting. Both she and her son believed on the Lord Jesus Christ as we expounded the simple dynamic message on the meaning of the gospel.

Before we prayed for the sick, Harold believed that God was healing him, and he wept before the Lord as he listened to the message. As we were praying, he took off the elevated shoe from his right leg and the steel hip-to-heel brace from his left leg and accepted Jesus Christ into his heart. Then this awesome miracle came to pass.

His short leg became normal as the Lord passed his way!

Harold and his mother came weeping to the platform, carrying the steel brace and elevated shoe. When Harold mounted the stairs with this strange elevated shoe in his hand, holding the big leg brace above his head, he was weeping. I presumed that he had come to tell us about someone else who had been healed. I looked at him and his legs were perfectly normal. I could see no reason for him to have needed this elevated shoe and the big leg brace, so I asked him:

"Who has been healed?"

He was sobbing convulsively. He finally said,

"It's me! I have been healed! These are the things I have take off my legs!" It was incredible to behold!

Pondering that pair of perfectly equal legs, one could but wonder at the awesome power of God to do the utterly impossible! He walked back and forth on the platform, and both of his legs were perfectly equal. It absolutely astounded the multitude of people!

The Osborn Ministry team will be leaving for Togo in just a few short days where thousands more miracles and healings such as Harold's will be manifest. Please pray and believe for supernatural results in this African nation and partner with us now by making a donation here.

Healing The Sick

2009-11-01T16:11:00.001-06:00

I just finished reading your awe inspiring book “Healing the Sick, A Living Classic”. I’m going to buy copies of this book today at Barnes and Nobles and lend it out to all the religious people in my community that I know. I believe that this book is invaluable and will change the lives of the people whom I give it to. It’s already saved me at least $13,000 in medical expenses and fees that I would have incurred had I placed any faith in their services. Thanks a million.

100 Healing Facts

2009-11-01T16:02:00.000-06:00

Dear T.L. & Daisy Osborn,

I am a long time fan of your ministry, and always buy “100 Healing Facts”. I sat under your teaching while attending Calvary Cathedral in the 80’s. I have the highest respect for your quality, especially being Bible centered and listening to the Holy Spirit. Thank you for being a vessel to the Body of Christ.

I also have long admired Queen Elizabeth II as the godly matriarch of her family as well as a selfless servant of her nation. I wrote a letter thanking her, and the was prompted to send your “100 Healing Facts” to her as well. Her staff sent me a letter thanking me for the booklet! It certainly didn’t come across as a form letter and since it doesn’t “convert” anybody – just shows Bible truth to ALL – I feel confident that her majesty did receive and is benefitting.

Yours truly In Him,

TH, USA

Celebration of Life's Beauty

2009-10-31T09:19:00.000-05:00

I love the beauty and vibrant colors of Fall in Oklahoma. We learn from an observation of nature. Before the hibernation of Winter there is a celebration of life's beauty. The colors are a display of God's greatness. The cold barren times of Winter hold the promise of life's force that never dies. Spring... is coming! What appeared dead was only busy preparing for the next awakening of beauty, blossoms, growth, fruit and reproductivity. Seeds emerge, guaranteeing a new cycle of life. Summer is a season of work, of planting and includes the reward of harvest.

In each season remember that LIFE is the constant. God's presence is the guarantee.

You Were Made for Life

2009-09-30T20:45:00.000-05:00

Life, as God designed it for you, is too valuable for you to miss. There is too much for you to be, to have, to enjoy, to do. To resign or to surrender hope is to sin, to deteriorate, to die.

You are Made for Life!

That is why this message is in front of you right now.God created you for greatness, for success, for health, for happiness and for fulfillment.

Look beyond any facade or mask, and look deep within your heart where you yearn for God's lifestyle. Is is there, deep within you.

So welcome the voice of love that does not attack and condemn you , but that honestly gives you hope by reminding you that God is there, loving, caring.

Basics For Believers

2009-09-22T11:19:00.001-05:00

Now, we are the Church-we are Christ's body. I am the Church-I am Christ's body. We are His expression in our community today. Christ ministers through people today the same as He ministered through a human person (His Son, born of a virgin) over two thousand years ago. Today His body is the Church. The Church is you and it is me. We are His temple, His channel of expression now. Today we are His associates, His friends, His partners, His interpreters, His communicators, His transmitters, His representatives. For we are members of His body, of His flesh, and of His bones. -Eph 5:30. So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and members in particular. -1 Cor 12:27 The mystery of the Christian faith is -Christ in YOU -Col. 1:27

Memorial Service

2009-09-15T10:53:00.000-05:00

An overflow of friends and family members have gathered to pay tribute to Daneesa this morning in Tulsa, Ok. Cars lined the streets and people lined the halls of IGC to share stories and pay tribute to a loved one.

A spirit filled service full of tears and laughter. An appropriate service for a tireless servant of God.

-- Post From My iPhone

In Memory

2009-09-11T23:02:00.000-05:00

Daneesa Carol O'Dell was the third of four children born to LaDonna Carol and Jerry Ray O’Dell in Tulsa, OK on March 22, 1967. An intelligent, athletic and witty student, she attended school in Tulsa and graduated from Jenks High School in 1985.

Daneesa gave her life to the Lord at age eight at Tulsa Christian Fellowship. A charter member of International Gospel Center, she began working part-time in the ministry at the age of 14, when she first joined the Osborn International Ministries staff, the missionary organization founded by her grandparents, Drs. TL & Daisy Osborn.

On May 9, 1985 she married Curtis Dolan, and to this union was born three sons, Stephen, Philip and Davey. Together, the family served in ministry in various places, including India, ultimately becoming part of the Berryhill community in Tulsa. Daneesa was a caring mother and was totally involved in the lives of her sons, including their remarkable sports activities. Berryhill referees were always on their best behavior when around her!

Daneesa resumed employment at Osborn Ministries International in 1999 and served as Personal Assistant to the CEO (her mother, Dr. LaDonna Osborn). Her dedication and efficiency were always accompanied by a servant’s attitude.

This extraordinary woman transcended this life to be with her Lord on September 9, 2009. She is survived by three sons, Stephen Curtis Dolan, Philip Michael Dolan, Davey Benjamin Dolan, (Berryhill), one sister, LaVona Marie Thomas (Sand Springs), two brothers, Tommy Ray O’Dell (Tulsa) and Donald Mark O’Dell (Buford, Georgia), her mother, LaDonna Carol Osborn and her father, Jerry Ray O’Dell (both of Tulsa), her grandfather, T.L. Osborn (Tulsa), four nieces and fourteen nephews, a host of beloved family members and the many friends and colleagues who will greatly miss her indomitable spirit, her bright smile and her ability to turn obstacles into stepping stones. A woman of God, loved and honored by her family, admired by her co-laborers, now rejoicing with her Savior, now awaiting the promised reunion with her family and friends.

Funeral will be Tuesday @ 10 am at International Gospel Center, 555 S. Memorial Dr, Tulsa. Viewing Monday 5-7 pm @ Ninde Funeral Home, Woodland Acres.

For over 60 years the Osborn family has lived by faith – bringing Jesus’ love and hope to millions of people worldwide. Since the unexpected passing of this vibrant young woman of God has left them unprepared to deal with her burial expenses, the family requests that a financial donation be made in lieu of flowers.

Checks can be made payable to International Gospel Center, P.O. Box 700361 Tulsa, OK 74170 (Memo: Danessa O’Dell Memorial Fund).

Daneesa Carol O'Dell 1967-2009

2009-09-09T14:05:00.000-05:00

Daneesa O'Dell, youngest daughter of Dr. LaDonna Osborn passed away this morning and joined her Lord Jesus Christ in heaven. Ms. O'Dell was very active in Osborn Ministries as Dr. LaDonna's long time personal assistant. She was born March 22, 1967 and was the mother of three sons. She will be forever remembered as a soldier for the Kingdom and as a strong loving mother to three handsome young men of God.
Daneesa's passing will undoubtedly leave her family grieving for her presence while they celebrate her life, her work and her love while on this earth. She brought happiness to many with a servant attitude. A woman of God, praised by her family, admired by her co-laborers, now rejoicing with her Creator.

Funeral will be Tuesday @ 10 am at International Gospel Center, 555 S. Memorial Dr, Tulsa. Viewing Monday 5-7 pm @ Ninde Funeral Home, Woodland Acres.

Dear Bishop,
It was such a blessing to have heard you tonight and to have had the privilege of meeting you afterwords. What struck me was the very simple but profound way in which you communicated the Word of God to us. Hearing you preach tonight made me feel that myself and other preachers have really complicated the message. I have been hearing about your ministry for over a year and I think in God's all wise providence those seeds will germinate. I am very much interested in talking to you further about how we can work together in the future. I plan to be at the morning session for a short while and then travel over to the country later but I am planning to bring a number of people from my church with me on Sunday. God's richest blessing on your ministry.

Enduring Work

1 Cor 3:9-17

9 For we are God's fellow workers; you are God's field, you are God's building. 10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I have laid the foundation, and another builds on it. But let each one take heed how he builds on it. 11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13 each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is. 14 If anyone's work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15 If anyone's work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.

16 Do you not know that you are the temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you? 17 If anyone defiles the temple of God, God will destroy him. For the temple of God is holy, which temple you are.

My Husband Loves to Give Out Tracts

Dearest Ones, The Osborns,

God truly bless you precious people and your associates. It’s such a blessing to be in touch with you dear people.

A month or two ago, I sent in a prayer request for healing after a fall. The paramedics who came thought I had broken things in my right shoulder, arm, hip, pelvic area and femur area. Today, I am much better. There are still some areas that need help and I am using a walker to even take one step. But I am praising God for all that He has done in these areas on a day-by-day basis. We’re believing God for a total victory.

We happened to re-read an older issue of one of your letters, and we learning that you have tracts available. My husband loves to give out tracts for people and places he may go. Will you please send us whatever number of tracts we can purchase for $25? Thank you so much.

Recently on TV at least 4 different ministers mentioned your ministry in a very favorable light. You wonderful ministers of salvation, love and grace, you have a most respected influence abroad and at home. Praise God, after all your endless efforts, people know you and love you dearly. Pioneers, that’s you. We praise God for you. We pray for your well- being.

Love and much gratitude to you,

Indonesia hosts the world's largest Muslim population, estimated at over 200 million. OSBORN Ministries International has taken the gospel of Jesus Christ into Indonesia. In July 2009, Dr. LaDonna Osborn spoke to over 100,000 citizens, prisoners and government officials of Indonesia. They brought the unsaved, the sick, the lame and the needy to hear the good news of Jesus. Thousands received Christ as their Lord and Savior and thousands more where healed of various diseases. People blind and deaf from birth saw their first sight and heard their first words at the OSBORN Festivals. Cancers were defeated and voices restored as the Gospel of Jesus flowed through the community.

God has called OSBORN Ministries to take a light into the dark corners, to reach the unreachable and to touch the untouchable. Today is your opportunity to reach out and change the culture of the lost by partnering with us.

Here is a testimony from Dr. T.L. Osborn's facebook page.

July 28, 2009
Please pray for my dad. He is a veteran. Strong as an ox but in his 70's. recently he had a annual physical for his insurance and they found his lungs damaged and aorta aneurysm via MRI scan. He has never been sick in his life nor ever had surgery. He is not saved but knows about God and our Lord Jesus. Believe and agree with me for total turnaround of this situation and that his heart is open to receive Christ and through this event, My brothers also will receive Christ through the working miracle of God's hand that my father is fully aware of that God can do. But we must stand in the gap for him and believe God for him. Dad's name is Luis lives in NY

August 19, 2009
I thank you so much for your ministry. A few weeks ago I had asked you all to pray for my dad. I informed you that he was diagnosed with abdominal aneurysm and liver damage. He went for his second consult and no surgery is need and no medication is needed and his liver is perfect. Aneurysm is at 4.3 cm and we believe for it to be totally dissolve. keep praying for his salvation.. he is tuff as nails but I believe that spirit of pharaho will bow down.

Your Faith Has Made You Well

Luke 18:35-43

Then it happened, as He was coming near Jericho, that a certain blind man sat by the road begging. 36 And hearing a multitude passing by, he asked what it meant. 37 So they told him that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by. 38 And he cried out, saying, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"

39 Then those who went before warned him that he should be quiet; but he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"

40 So Jesus stood still and commanded him to be brought to Him. And when he had come near, He asked him, 41 saying, "What do you want Me to do for you?"

He said, "Lord, that I may receive my sight."

42 Then Jesus said to him, "Receive your sight; your faith has made you well." 43 And immediately he received his sight, and followed Him, glorifying God. And all the people, when they saw it, gave praise to God.

The Gospel Brings No Shame

Rom 1:16-18

16 For I am not ashamed of the Gospel (good news) of Christ, for it is God's power working unto salvation [for deliverance from eternal death] to everyone who believes with a personal trust and a confident surrender and firm reliance, to the Jew first and also to the Greek,

17 For in the Gospel a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith [disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith]. As it is written, The man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by faith. [Hab 2:4.]

18 For God's [holy] wrath and indignation are revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who in their wickedness repress and hinder the truth and make it inoperative.
