“I want to share with you what God has taught me through 75 years of ministry.” Teaching and videos by David Hathaway to encourage and uplift faith. If you need healing, it is in the Name of Jesus. If you need a miracle, it is through the power of faith. Whatever you need is found through faith in Jesus.
I learned another lesson about trusting God when, at 90 years old, I finally learned to fly. The instructor had his hand on the controls, and everything was fine. But when he took his hand away and said, “You’re flying,” I was afraid!
It made me think about our relationship with God. As long as we try to control our own lives, we will struggle. But when we trust Jesus and allow Him to take control, everything changes.
The question for each one of us is: in whom is your faith? It is not following famous preachers that saves you. It is not belonging to a particular church or denomination. Only faith in Jesus Christ brings salvation. Like the leper and the centurion, we must come to Jesus, trust His word, and allow His power to transform our lives.
Healing has always been a significant part of my ministry because it points people to the greatest miracle of all – the forgiveness of sins. On another occasion, Jesus healed a paralysed man by saying, “So that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins... rise, take up your bed and walk.” The man immediately walked, proving that Jesus truly is the Son of God.
Throughout the Bible, prophets, priests, and apostles were driven by a divine purpose. They were people of vision. Vision gives direction, purpose, and perseverance in all that we do. Scripture says, “Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it’” (Isaiah 30.21).
What God has spoken to me has directed my entire life. He has always given me His timing – revealing things that could only be accomplished at a specific moment in His plan.
In Mark 10.23–31, Jesus teaches that wealth, status, and personal achievements cannot secure salvation. Using the illustration of a camel passing through the eye of a needle, He shows that entering God's Kingdom is impossible through human effort alone. When the disciples ask, "Who then can be saved?" Jesus answers with hope: "With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God."
I have always believed the prophecies in the Bible, Joel 2, God’s Promise of the former and latter rain. I believed that the first outpouring of the Holy Spirit was on that first Pentecost, but that we can and should experience the second Pentecost now. Although I had received my personal Baptism by the Holy Spirit aged 14, I wanted something greater, the promise of Joel 2.
People will follow a leader. Today there’s an emptiness, the youth are searching. And Jesus is the one! The only one! In Matthew 9.27, two blind men heard of all the miracles Jesus had done and they followed Him into the house where He was, crying out, “Son of David, have mercy on us!” Though blind, they recognised the prophetic significance of who Jesus is. Jesus saw their faith, touched their eyes and their eyes where opened.
