Mission Update

Dear Partner, Family and Friends,

World Harvest Ministries/iHarvest Church continues to spread the gospel, reaching the poor and the needy and carrying out the great commission. 

I want to take this opportunity to thank you, our partners, for helping us with this important and life-changing work.  Your partnership is precious and valuable to us!  We are praying for you and I want to encourage you with this word.

Firstly, in Proverbs 11:30, "The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, and he that wins souls is wise."  Secondly, it instructs us in Proverbs 19:17, "He that gives to the poor lends to the Lord and God will repay back to him that which he gave." Thirdly, it tells us in the Word that if we open our hands wide to the poor and give, for this good work, God will never let us fail.

Then in Matthew, God instructs us to visit the prisoners, feed the poor and clothe the naked (Matthew 25).  

Prison Outreach Report

I am pleased to let you know Ps. Brian and Judy have been busy doing the work of the Lord.  Pastor Brian recently visited Rockhampton, and ministered in the correctional center there.  Then in the last couple of weeks, he has held chapel services in correctional centers in South East Queensland, sharing the good news and ministering God's love.  Ps. Brian told me, "Men have given their hearts to the Lord and thanked him for his visits and prayers."  He has seen lives changed as he continues to do this work on behalf of the Kingdom of God and iHarvest Church.  

Soul Winning 

Our Awakening Sisters life group led by Pastor Cherise, Elizabeth and Janelle, ministered and handed out over 100 tracts last week at a beach front.  Around 6 people gave their hearts immediately to Jesus, some receiving healing prayers.  All the ladies from the group were rejoicing, as together they were able to share the gospel.  

Harvest Food Assist

Our soul winning/care team have been handing out food parcels to people and families in need, on a weekly basis.  People have been very encouraged through their prayers, words and the food that we have been able to distribute because of you, our partners.  

International Missions

Bishop Nikolas reports that the work in Kenya is expanding and progressing well.  We have been getting positive feedback from the pastors we work with there. 

Raj reports from India, that things are starting to open up again as lockdowns and restrictions are being eased.  We are receiving reports from around the world, that prayers are being answered. 

I want to encourage you and thank you for your prayers for this ministry, our outreaches and teams.  Together we can continue to love more, win more, reach more and do more for Jesus. 

Please see below recent work from our outreach teams in India, under the leadership of Raj, as they go around the villages helping families with food, hope and words of encouragement.  

I dare you to continue to stand with us and to support this ministry, as we believe to see great revival and the greater glory manifest in the nations.

Much love in Jesus, 

Ps. Shaun Marler

'Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress...' James 1.27


Raj took to the streets of India this month, giving out much needed food to the poor and destitute, recovering from Covid-19 restrictions.







Recently, through our ministry and the generosity of our partners, we were able to provide new school bags for orphan school students.







This is a typical celebration of an orphan's birthday.  This young girl was able to celebrate her birthday due to the generosity of our partners.

“I am not moved by what I see. I am not moved by what I feel. I am only moved by what I believe.” Smith Wigglesworth.

If God’s Word says you are forgiven, then you are forgiven, if God’s Word says your needs are met, then your needs are met. If God’s Word says you are healed, you are healed. If you don’t let go of God’s Word, but keep it in your heart and mouth, then you can’t lose. There is no force the devil can bring against you that can overthrow the Word of God. God’s Word will make you a victor every time. So if you have been wanting good success and it has been eluding you, quit wondering if you have what it takes to succeed and remember instead, who lives in you. Then turn to the Word and put God’s success formula to work in your life. Start talking it, start thinking it, start doing it! You can believe all day long that the Bible is true- and that’s to your credit- but what the Bible says will never affect your life in a personal way until you start acting on God’s Word. Do not worry or fret that God has given more faith to others than He has to you. Rest assured in the fact that God h...

Honour your man of God

“Render to all men their dues. [Pay] taxes to whom taxes are due, revenue to whom revenue is due, respect to whom respect is due, and honor to whom honor is due.” Romans 13:7 (AMP) The word honour means: to respect, to revere, to treat with deference and submission and perform relevant duties to. Honouring your man of God is vital in the life of every born-again believer. Even as a Senior Pastor, it is a privilege for me to honour the men of God that I consider my spiritual fathers and mentors. They are life coaches to me on my spiritual journey to success, shining examples of excellence in ministry, men to whom I look for advice, prayer, guidance and leadership. The importance of a man such as this cannot be overstated. Many of us would not be saved from the wrath to come, had it not been for the assistance, support and intervention of our Pastors. We would be ignorant of the Word, were it not for a man of God anointed to teach. Thank God for men who dare to teach the “Word of God”, i...

THE LAW OF REPETITION

Image
What you hear repeatedly, you will eventually believe. Repetition, our school teachers know this basic law of learning. That’s why when we were at school, we learned many things in our early years by repetition. Someone once said, “You must hear something at least 16 times, before you eventually believe it”. Television commercials are repeated over and over. These are backed up by newspaper, magazine, internet and billboard advertisements. The marketers know we must continually hear and see something before we respond to it.  Romans 10:17 says “ So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God ”.  It simply takes time to absorb a message. Great achievers understand the necessity for their team and those following them, to hear instructions, teaching and training, again and again, before they fully grasp new concepts.  Do not expect those around you and those with whom you network, to understand everything instantly. You are a result o...
