No Hope of Ever Walking Again

(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.

Born Without Eyes

(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.

Holland Wonder

Why Require The Best?

To the most unworthy person - a persecutor of Christians, a hater of the gospel: a man called Saul of Tarsus - God stretched out His hand and offered the rich and abundant life.

The lord made three statements to Saul as he was en route to take as prisoners some Christians. A light shined from heaven and he fell to the ground.

Here are three formidable statements:
Fist: I am Jesus (Acts 9:5)
What he meant was: I Desire You!
Second: Now stand up (Acts 9:6)
That was to say: I'll Inspire You!
Third: You are my witness (Acts 26:16-18)
In other words: I Require You!

Jesus saves us, then He makes us His partners.

He redeems us, then sends us out as His messengers.

He enriches us, then makes us His good will ambassadors.

Your greatest personal development is to get God's view of the world, to see people as God sees them, to absorb His nature and to get in harmony with His emotions until He lives and loves and lifts people through you.

That is why you require His Best.

You give up your small ambitions and you aim for the top. The basic attitude in achieving all success is:

See a need and fill it; See a hurt and heal it; See someone lost and guide them to the light; Find someone down and lift them up.

That spells "mission" for every human being - reaching people, carrying out God's plan for good in this world.

Every life that is on target with God has a divine mission, an therein lies the reason for us to require God's best in life.

Excerpt from "The Power of Positive Desire"

Tormented By Demons

A man was brought to the crusade who had been tormented by demons for more then 25 years. They would throw him on the ground, and literally pound his head and chest on the ground. That night the demons tormented this man, and he would cry out with loud voices until he greatly disturbed the meeting. People pressed around him to see him in this condition. Not at all coincidental was the fact that that night we were preaching on demon possession, and it seemed that Satan had come to challenge the truths which we were proclaiming.

I told the audience to believe with me and to be reverent in God's presence; to ignore Satan's demonstration, and to give attention to the word of God; that Satan would not be able to stand before the authority of God's word. They all joined with me in their faith and did as I told them to do.

As I was preaching on Christ's power over demons, and of the power of His name today, this man shouted, "I'm an enemy of Jesus! I fight with Him! He cannot overcome me!"etc. All sorts of blasphemous words flowed from this man's heart. But when the mass prayer was prayed and the people with one accord joined in faith, the demons could not resist the truth. In one last desperate attempt on his life, they threw him to the ground, and literally pounded his head on the earth, and then with a loud scream, left him, and he was delivered in peace.

Just a few moments later, the man came up the steps, with tears in his eyes, and gave the testimony of his deliverance. How the audience rejoiced, and how we all gave praise to God as we heard this man tell how the demons had tormented him, but how they had gone from him, and how Jesus Christ had come into his heart bringing peace and satisfaction.

An elderly gentleman was on the platform ready to testify, and he told the audience that when he came on the grounds, he saw this man who was completely crazy. he admitted frankly that he feared the man, and had gone to the opposite side of the audience, because he was afraid that some danger might result from this man in his insane condition. This gentleman wept as he expressed his gratitude to God for setting this captive free.

Esteban Crispin, one time insane and possessed of demons, is now a faithful member of a church in Guatemala.

Dr. T.L. Osborn from "The Gospel According to T.L. & Daisy"

Blind Beggar Healed

This man, a beggar in Guatemala, had diabetes, which resulted in total blindness. After the diabetes had destroyed his eyesight, it affected his mind, and he became insane. In addition to this, one side of his body was paralyzed and he hobbled along on the streets with an old cane, crazy, blind, and paralyzed, begging for a living.

One day a man told the old beggar about the Osborn Crusade, and urged him to attend. Jose Antonio Solorzano, the beggar, replied that he did not know the way to the crusade, and that it was impossible for him to go.

The friend offered to carry him to the meeting, so he came and carried Jose to the crusade on his back. He set him down on the ground where he could listen to the message, and that was the last time Jose ever heard of his friend.

The beggar listened to the message and when the prayer was offered for healing, God had evidently seen his desperate condition and instantly and completely healed his body from his head to his feet.

He was on of the most touching testimonies that I have ever heard of in all my life.

After he testified and explained to the people his deplorable condition, and expressed the shame that he felt for having been a beggar, we asked the people to raise their hand if they knew him, and knew his testimony to be true. Many hands raised signifying that they not only knew him, but had given bits of money to him on the street.

You should have seen the reaction of the audience when this man humbly thanked the audience for having helped him in that way. Jose Solorzano continued to attend the crusade and several times he gave his testimony to the people.

It was a thrill to hear him repeat the wonderful story of how Jesus Christ had come into his heart and life. Before his sickness, he had been employed by the government as an architect. In less than two weeks after his healing, he had his old job back again, and had completed three plans for government buildings in the city.

Certainly God has been glorified in this miracle, and thousands have been convinced of His power to heal TODAY!

Ministry Flourishing In Restricted Areas

NOTE: Names and specific details have been removed from this post for security reasons.

"It has been quite a long time since we have not been in touch. We hope everything is going well with your family, the Church and the ministry. You are all in our daily family devotion prayers, twice a day. We are so thankful to God and to the Church and to Osborn International for the support that enables us to do more in the ministries. We honor your love and concern for us. We treasure the privilege of being apart of IGC. We feel so much a part of the church as one family.

Due to constant busy work in (DELETED) with mission works, the construction of (DELETED) Home (we have 21 children now), and other ministries travels plus the inconvenience of internet connection, we could not keep up with our updates to you for which we are so sorry. Yet, we are so confident in the Lord and in you that we are always in the prayers of the saints. The renovation of MEDIA ROOM is nearly done. The printing of the books are in process. We have given it to the Press already. Due to some political reasons and some restrictions on Christian works, the printing is slow. I hope everything will be done during our stay. A lot of enquiries from the authority and even many Children Homes are closed down by force recently. Our Children Home (40 children) is also checked thoroughly. But praise God it is not closed down because the regular support for the children daily needs have been raised locally by having farming fields. Children and the care-takers are always working in the fields, rearing pigs and so forth. Such a testimony!

We miss our time in IGC and with you and much also with Papa T.L. We look at our photos (not even printed) in the computer again and again.
We long to meet you face to face again."

The Regenerated Prostitute

During one our teaching and prayer meetings, a prostitute who was dying of cancer was hauled to our mass meeting in a wheelbarrow. Some women found her languishing on a straw mat on the ground of her adobe hut where she had been abandoned to die.

When they told her about our meetings and offered to take her there, she thought there was no hope for her abused and wasted life. Born into a Catholic family, she had tried to live according to the rules of her religion. But in spite of her best efforts, the sense of her utter failure plunged her into despair and degraded living. Having spent years in prostitution, she felt remorse, guilt and shame.

The ladies convinced her of what the sacred scripture says: God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world: but that the world through Him might be saved. John 3:17

They placed pillows on the wheelbarrow and brought her to our meeting. Her emaciated body resembled a sallow skin-covered skeleton, except for her swollen cancer-ridden abdomen.

Lying there under the open sky, she listened to the teaching and she learned how one can be transformed by receiving the Life of the Creator by faith.

The subject for the lesson that night was the love and compassion of Jesus Christ. We explained that after His crucifixion, the body of Christ was placed in a sepulcher where it remained for three days. Then the Omnipotent Father raised him form the dead.

We emphasized the fact that His Resurrection Life can now change our nature and engender in us a new person; that it heals our diseases and regenerates us spiritually, mentally and physically -NOW. We stressed the Bible promise: He forgives all of our iniquities; He heals all of our diseases. Psalm 103:3

When we finished the public teaching and led the multitude in a prayer to receive the gift of salvation from the Lord, that poor woman realized the He loved her enough to forgive her and to impart His new Life to her.

That dear woman received the glorious joy of pardon and forgiveness. New Miracle Life permeated her old nature. She was regenerated by the Life and Spirit of the Sovereign Lord.

Lying in that wheelbarrow, weeping for joy and thanking God for his peace, she looked up at her friends, reached out her bony arms and was pulled to her feet-she had not stood for weeks.

As they rejoiced together, the woman was so full of joy and true peace that she forgot about her cancer. She suddenly realized that the large abdominal tumor had disappeared and that her legs and arms had become strong. She was not only purged of her sins, but she was miraculously healed. She had experienced New Miracle Life now.

She pressed through the multitude, and came to our platform. She stood there weeping, with her arms raised toward heaven, and her upturned face looked like an angel.

Her entire life-style was changed. the sacred text of the Holy Scriptures tells us what happens when one recieves the New Miracle Life. it says, Old things pass away; behold all things become new. 2 Cor 5:17

That dear old woman began attending meetings where other believers gathered to worship the Lord, and she became a witness for Christ. As she increased in her knowledge of the Lord and as she grew in her faith, she consecrated her life to helping other people to know about Christ's divine love.

What that woman received from god is the Miracle Life that Jesus Christ came to share with each person who receives Him by faith.

HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY

This coming Sunday is a special day. Remember the gallant women who have given us life, and express love to other women who have or are raising children. Theirs is not an easy task. They are to train up children to love the Lord and to have a desire for serving people in many ways. I celebrate the memory of my mother, Dr. Daisy Washburn Osborn (now enjoying her eternal reward) who taught me to trust God's Word, to live by His guidelines and to live a life of purpose with a passion to obey the Master. (Hear her message "Guidelines for Living.")

WIN – Faith of Our Mothers!

By Dr. Chyanna Mull-Anthony
Pastor of International Gospel Center
Headquarters church of the Osborn Ministries

May is the month that reminds us to be grateful for our mothers! Along with our own personal “mothers”, we should be especially grateful for Women's International Network's (W.I.N.) spiritual mothers, Dr. Daisy Osborn and Bishop LaDonna Osborn.
Dr. Daisy was a modern day prophet – used by the Lord in more than 70 nations to challenge the church’s many unfair doctrines and oppressive practices restricting the roles of women in ministry and the home. Even though she left this life to be with her Lord in 1995, tens of thousands of women and men still salute her as their spiritual mother. Her books and teachings are still transforming lives. Dr. Daisy coined the W.I.N. acronym in the late 1980’s during one of our historic International Women’s Conferences.
However, W.I.N. did not take wings until her daughter, Bishop LaDonna Osborn took time from her already busy schedule (CEO of Osborn Ministries Int’l in four nations, and overseeing more than 700 churches & ministries) to develop the W.I.N. vision in a way that we could all benefit and participate! Bishop LaDonna has chiseled out precious time, giving of herself in myriad ways to assist you and me as we become Jesus-women who represent our Master with quality, intelligence and anointing! She is just the one to do so – her reputation as such is well known. Don’t miss any opportunity to learn from Bishop LaDonna or Dr. Daisy (W.I.N. events plus we have books and video teachings galore). You will join the ranks of those who proudly call them both “Mama” – all to the glory of God!

We Labor Together!

This statement by Dr. LaDonna is radical! “We are connected in SPIRIT, in PURPOSE, in MISSION, in FAITH, in HOPE and in the priority of ministering Christ's LOVE to a hurting world. ... Partner with us in each Gospel mission. When you give, part of YOU is going with us to bring GOOD NEWS and healing to multitudes of people.”

How is it that the same reward, effect, pouring out, that is on the “go-er” can be on the giver? How can we be partners? We know this by what happened to James and John, Simon's partners, when Jesus asked Simon to “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” (NKJV) The result was an AMAZING. Simon's nets were full and breaking with fish and he needed help. He motioned for James and John and their boat was filled also. James and John partnered with Peter. The entire catch would have been lost without them.

Let's be determined not to let opportunities go by. Jesus is still leading us out to the deep for an amazing catch! Our nets are breaking. Let's all be a part of the overflow and partner together.

Hear Dr. Daisy's teaching "Who's in Your Boat?" for great encouragement.

Tulsa World Newspaper Interviewed Dr. T.L. Osborn

Bill Sherman, religion editor for the Tulsa World, interviewed Dr. T.L. Osborn. The Tulsa community does not realize the treasure that they have in this legendary missionary statesman. For more than two hours, Dr. T.L. reflected on his and Dr. Daisy's journeys - from poor farms to national platforms of evangelism - as they simply obeyed the command of Christ to "preach the Gospel to every creature." Their pictoral book, "The Gospel According to T.L. and Daisy," documents their personal story in words and pictures. (Dr. Daisy transitioned to her eternal reward in 1995.)
Mr. Sherman was surprised to learn that Dr. T.L., at age 85, continues to travel and minister the Gospel. Dr. LaDonna Osborn (T.L. and Daisy's daughter), who has been an active part of the ministry since childhood, emphasized that the pioneering evangelism programs founded by her parents, are touching the world in nations globally TODAY. The ministry's influence increases each year. Both hers and Dr. T.L.'s face-to-face ministries are impacting a new generation of leaders in Christian ministry, and reaping vast soul harvests, through their mass miracle crusades. The Osborns' Gospel books and other teaching materials are translated and distributed by the TONS in nations globally. Request their newsletter to learn about some of their Gospel activities.
Dr. T.L. shared with Mr. Sherman that a small number of Christians partner with Dr. LaDonna and himself through their prayers and financial contributions. "These gifts," Dr. T.L. stated, "allow ordinary Christians at home to GO WITH US to nations that need the Gospel. This kind of partnership is God's way of calling us to be laborers together with Christ in His global mission of love and healing to a hurting world."
Dr. T.L. will be preaching at Tulsa's International Gospel Center (the headquarters church of the Osborn Ministries) on Sunday May 17 at 10:30 am. This will be a rare opportunity for the Tulsa community to experience the Christ-centered ministry of one of her own "sons of the soil."

"God's Big Picture" is a must read...

I am excited by the response to my book, "God's Big Picture." It's now in so many languages. A section of my book shelf is reserved for this book in various languages. Each language represents people who deserve to know how to find themselves in God's plan. We provide this book FREE during my Gospel Seminars globally. In a few weeks, we'll be giving 30,000 in Indonesia FREE. We are trusting God for the finances, because we've learned that BOOKS in the hands of believers is the best investment that we can make to help secure nations with the Gospel of Christ. This book is good for unbelievers, new converts, mature Christians and scholars. It provides a condensed "picture" of the entire Bible, from Genesis to Revelation. One reader commented, "I've been a Spirit-filled Christian for 22 years. As I read your book, the missing pieces of my knowledge feel into place. The questions were answered. Now the entire Bible makes sense. This is a must read for everyone." Partner with us in FEEDING THE WORLD WITH THE GOSPEL OF CHRIST.

Osborn Ministry Team Staying Up-To-Date!

Did You Prepare For A Prosperous Day?

I have said that the most dangerous part of a person's life is not necessarily the speed bumps they encounter in life. Most often it is the smooth road between the speed bumps that lure us to sleep and we don't "feel" like we need God to intervene or even guide or direct our steps.

That time when everyone's healthy, money's in the bank and you're feelin' great and our eyes turn from God to us. After all, God is there when I need a panic button, right?

The Word says, "Without faith, it is impossible to please God". Therefore, faith is something we are to use every day. We develop our faith, by reading, believing, speaking and renewing DAILY. We must activate our faith when our feet hit the floor every morning and prepare for a prosperous day.

If we were going fishing, we would grab the tackle box and poles. If we were going hunting, we would grab the ammo and the guns. When a surgeon performs surgery, he studies the patient, assembles a team and acquires the instruments in preparation for successful surgery.

Do you leave the house empty handed today?
