About Us
This website is a project of Michael Fackerell which began by God's grace in 1997 and moved to this domain name in the year 2000. Michael's testimony can be found here.
Michael lives with his wife Marilena (who is actively involved in the video/TV ministry) and his daughter Lisa in the general region of Brisbane, in Queensland Australia. Having preached the gospel in many nations, including Romania, USA, Canada and in Asia, Michael now prefers to stay at home with his family, but will consider coming to another place to minister if those making the invitation consider it worthwhile to fully pay his travel and accommodation expenses, and keep him busy while there.
Michael and Marilena are involved primarily in mass media outreaches and seek to work with people who want to use television and the internet to prepare more people for eternity. On the local front, they are involved in pioneering house churches which seek to multiply through evangelism, discipleship and the development of godly leadership. Professionally, Michael and Marilena are currently involved in the real estate industry on a part time basis in their own business.
Michael can be contacted by email through this form.

Seeing the over left pages lying in the shop a neighboring Muslim asked him not to use those pages to give to the customers. The pages were of.
The Arabic formal education course, where the Quranic verses were written on it. Understanding what the neighbor was saying he intended to burn them, in spite of they are kept wasted on the floor. As respecting and keeping the sacredness of the pages the Quranic verses written on them, he kept those pages outside the shop.As burning of the pages started, the neighboring began to say loudly and told many other friends that this Christian has martyred the Quran.
At this announcement were made in there mosques located in the vicinity. A herd of people came out and began to beat him badly. His head torn and was wounded seriously. Many slogans like, kill him, hang him, were the words coming from the people. Hundreds of people were crowded.The crowd was so furious that they tried to set his house on fire.inspector of police(police station incharg) has wounded by Muslim crowd,were demanded from him to give them Imran to kill,inspector of police is in hospital.(allied hospital Faisalabad) In the mean time police came and arrested the man. A FIR has been registered as the copy of it has been attached.Along with him the Christian of the areas are also in danger due to the problem.
The team of CSI.org arrived at the spot and analyzed the whole situation. It was critical in regard to the family and Imran.

FEAR and Cell Wall Rigidity
"Father, I thank you for your love and mercies that are new every morning. I pray you would totally restore our sister's colon. Thank you that you hear and answer our prayers. I pray for Michelle's peace to be restored in her flesh, in Jesus' name, amen."
Michelle, in years past we had done colon cleanses that had warm enemas. The purpose was to help the body absorb and process food nutrients. When one looks at the effects of fear and stress on the body there is a medical term called "cell wall rigidity" that comes from stress.
Cell wall rigidity is when the cell walls tense and will not allow the proper passage of good and bad in and out of our cells. In breathing, for example, if our aveoli, which takes in oxygen and releases the spent carbon dioxide, is affected it sets up oxygen deprivation in a crisis. The body then reacts to that crisis with the larger crisis of an asthma attack as histamines are released in a fight of flight response. The histamines have the effect of restricting the airways and that is why anti-histamines are prescribed or used.
If the cell walls in the colon and intestines are affected by stress induced rigidity, they do not receive the nutrients they as freely as they should, and they also hold onto the toxins longer than they should.
If you seek the Lord for insight into recent stressors and past ones that still haunt you, I would encourage you to take those before the Lord and confess them as sin and repent for entertaining them in opposition to God's Word of provision and protection. Then continue to seek God's Word that speaks against those fearful lies and take your thoughts captive, casting down those vain imaginations. This will open the way for the healing of the initial problem you were seeking to alleviate with the enemas if your reasons were the same as the reasons we used to have.
Have a blessed day!

3 Day Fast
Hello Michael,
I just read your message about fasting and I am actually in the middle of a three day fast. I'm 28 years old and this is by far the toughest experience. This is my first time enduring a fast, the first day was the hardest.But I have committed to do this in order to walk closer to God and to hear him. I truly want discernment and clarity from him, many times I get wrapped up in my own thoughts and am not sure if it's God or me answering. I hope I come out of this renewed and with more peace about God and his Word. This is my prayer during this time and I hope you join me in prayer agreement.
Thank you for such a well versed explanation on the benefits of fasting. I already feel more connected.
Sincerely,
Tiffany Adams

Thank you
Thank you Michael and thank you Lord for the creation of this site. Much more like this is needed in the world.
Thank you Lord for bringing me here, you knew my thoughts before it was.
I hope I can contribute to your site, but I have many more questions to ask. With God's lead, perhaps this will be the forum I so seeked.
In Him,
Kurt
