Reports and testimonies from David Hathaway's ministry across Ukraine, Central Asia, Eastern Europe, Israel and Britain.
The entire event was deeply rooted in prayer from the very beginning. And the local churches in Wrocław came together for a special dedicated day of prayer for the festival. We had prepared 700 salvation response packs for people surrendering their lives to Jesus. God worked with such power that by the end of the festival, only 2 packs were left!
These young believers are the next generation of evangelists, pastors and missionaries who will bring revival to their nations and Central Asia. I did not come to bring easy strategies, I came to bring the Power of the Holy Spirit who alone can change lives, convict of, sin, righteousness and judgement. It's my life's testimony, my life-long experience with God.
In July, thousands of Christians gathered together in Kyiv for the National Day of Prayer. For 12 years since the annexation of Crimea and the Donbass, Ukraine has experienced unimaginable suffering and hardship. Yet they give thanks to God, because against all odds, they have survived another year. By His grace, the people have endured, preserved their unity; and their longing for true and lasting peace has only grown stronger.
The Holy Spirit came down so powerfully in a way I have not seen in 75 years! Preaching on finding Jesus, the Holy Spirit led me to do the opposite of what I have always done – I prayed for the sick first – God answered in such Power, a flood of people mounted the platform to testify of the incredible miracles they were experiencing. Then it was so easy to say, “You have seen the Power of Jesus to heal. This same Jesus is here to forgive your sin.” Many hundreds accepted Christ and prayed the sinners’ prayer!
David Hathaway's involvement plays a catalytic role in the breakthrough. His reputation as a courageous preacher of the Gospel and a minister who sees powerful healings, together with his respected age, gives confidence and courage to many of the participants, especially to adults from a traditional Muslim context. David’s ministry is a vital element in the work of the local church to bring in the harvest at a specific moment in God’s timing.
Held at Emmanuel Centre, London, 11 April 2026, REVIVE NOW! was an opportunity to seek God afresh, be renewed in faith, and be stirred for His purposes in our lives, our churches, and our nation. Through focused prayer, Bible teaching, and extended time in God’s presence, the day strengthened believers and ignited a fresh passion for the Gospel.
On Sunday, 29th March, pastors and bishops from across the Lviv region gathered together, along with chaplains, military representatives, and official guests from the city administration, recognising this as a critical moment for Ukraine. More than 1,500 filled the hall. A choir and live orchestra of 120 musicians contributed to a powerful atmosphere of God’s presence. David’s representative in Ukraine, Vadim Preobrazhenskiy, shared a message about God’s Mercy which has united and transformed the nation in the despair of war, and in the biggest historical challenges Ukraine has ever faced.
Travelling on military roads covered with anti-drone netting and zig-zagging across pot-holed village roads, David ministered in a growing church planted in Izyum immediately after it was liberated from the invaders in 2023; he visited and ministered to the military manning the observation post for the 26th Artillery Regiment protecting the whole of this part of the Front, and then, further up the frontline, to commanders of ground units, who gathered in another secret location to meet us and to hear the Word of God.
