Banning Leibscher from JesusCulture/Bethel Church.
Jesus Culture worship concert, Sunday evening, at the Dream Centre, Carrara
Sponsored by Revolution Church, Mermaid Waters.
More than 1 thousand turned up to worship and so did the Holy Spirit.
We prayed for each other to have a Jesus encounter & there definitely was a big up lift from The Holy Ghost as we joined the band in worship.
People were coming forward to tell of the healings they received that night as Banning was speaking.
The people with examples of healing going up to front stage to rejoice as I remember were:
Young woman’s hip realigned.
Young man’s pain relief from a poorly healed broken toe.
Young woman’s eczema healed immediately and her skin normalized.
A man’s healing from dyslexia, (he had just read the Bible for the first time without letter blurring and extra letters).
A woman’s hearing was restored from partial deafness (She was emotional).
Young man feels his back straightened from scoliosis.
A woman felt she was healed of acid reflux (she was calling for coffee to confirm it!)
I prayed for a young woman with a severed thumb; there was a bit of bliss there;
and a young woman with an Achilles problem (she said she would have to go for a long run before she knew she was healed).
Tweets from Banning:
Great healings last night.
Acid Reflux, Asthma, Dyslexia, Broken Bones, Scoliosis, Partial Deafness,
HEALED!
Last night was incredible in the GC.
So much hunger here for God.
A generation is awakening to holiness who will declare Jesus with power.
Last night Nexus revivalists released a cry, so powerful,
completely consumed with seeking God for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
Banning's morning talk @ Nexus 17-01-10; that i took notes for, is below:
I have been with ~1000 young people at Nexus – JesusCulture Conference.
A thousand young Elijahs who will influence their world.

I love biographies; how the power of 1 can change history.
Leadership IS influence.
Our great commission to Nations, city, campus, workplace, family, friends.
These are our realms of influence.
We are the Head not the Tail – we are not following, we are leading:
I am influential.
Christians aren’t along for a ride – i should lead the ride.
Pollies don’t set the direction, God does, thru us as intercessors.
2Kings2
Elisha salted Bad water and it became Good.
So with me : Qld barren, we show saltiness then Qld fruitful.
7 realms of Society – Bill Bright - eg Finance, Media, Education…
Salt the water, the water healed > the land healed.
We are called to be a leaders in these realms.
Embrace a life to Lead, say yes to;
Hard work –
this will always stretch my faith;
it can be discouraging;
i will feel in over my head
but God will always make sure my head bobs up.
Many are called but few are chosen.
“I want to be chosen”
The context is accepting the invite to the wedding.
The ones chosen are the ones that say “Yes”.
Its like saying “who wants to help me move house”.
No eye contact, no enthusiasm; it’s a test for real friendship!
Then one outsider says yes to help me; so i say: “well I’ll choose you!!”
Am I refusing eye contact with Jesus;
blessed in His friendship but I don’t say "Yes, choose me!"
blessed in His friendship but I don’t say "Yes, choose me!"
2009 was the most stretching year of my life but I do feel rewarded.
Acts16:23
Personal breakthrough will give corporate break through.
Paul and Silas did the singing and the praying but the whole jail got released.
Rahab did the faith but her whole family survived the wall fall.
Exod.20 : leaders get breakthrough; every one was frightened but Moses pressed in.
I will Refuse to stop growing.
“Law of the Lid” – John Maxwell
Joshua raised the lid every where he was.
Feedback reads like CONSTRAINT but I might have to be influenced by it.
If I am not nurturing,
I will become nurturing even if the feedback gives me the impression that I’m working with babies!!
“I will impart Life”
I will be in community – Isolation is a killer for Leaders/influencers.
I need feedback to Grow – Banning, the lovable steamroller.
God wants me to trust the people giving me the feedback.
They will identify my blind spots about myself – I can’t see them!
Community gives me access to strengths I don’t have.
I must be in community with the wider community.
I am not to point score against the community,
or just to plant a short term spiritual flag there,
just to boast that : i said i could get into that circle;
I will enter community to serve.
