‘God healed my ear and now I’m a sound engineer!’

Meet Mitchell, he’s the guy on the left doing sound at a big church conference in Holland.
Being a sound engineer is what he does, but a few years back this was impossible.

When Mitchell was a baby, his parents noticed there was something wrong with his ears.
In his childhood years, Mitchell underwent surgery after surgery. Nothing cured his ear problems, until God did a miracle.
Now, Mitchell serves as a sound engineer in church and at big events.

Do you need a miracle from God today? Whatever your need is, you can trust Him. Jesus loves you and wants to heal you and make you whole. Call upon His name today and receive your miracle.

MESSAGE OF THE WEEK

This is your free audio message of the week on Maasbach Radio!

‘The tabernacle without the camp’ by evangelist John T.L. Maasbach

More about the message:           

What is the Blessing Pact?

The Blessing Pact, straight out of the principles in the Bible, is the formula through which God is able to supply you in all of your needs.

The Blessing Pact shows us how followers of Christ in the Bible were supplied in all of their needs and how God sustained them in their daily lives, because they gave God what belonged to Him. This principle is still the same for us today. God has not changed and He wants to supply in your needs and sustain you in your every day life.

‘God healed me!’

For years, Jaime experienced terrible pain in her knee. As an active mom of three, she tried to cope with the pain by using pain killers. One day, Jaime sat in a church service as she heard a message about healing.

After the message, the preacher encouraged the church to cry out to God for healing. Nobody laid hands on Jaime or prayed a specific prayer for her, yet after the church service, Jaime found herself walking down the stairs in high heels without a trace of pain!

Do you experience pain in your body? Are you sick? Jesus wants to heal you! Cry out to Jesus and He will hear your cry.

Our miracle baby

Meet this beautiful family of three: Rakesh, Febe and little Serahja.

Rakesh and Febe have been married for 10 years. God gave them the promise that they would receive children some day. Years passed by, yet Rakesh and Febe didn’t see the promise fullfilled. There were some hard times, especially when it seemed like everyone around them got pregnant ‘so easily’. Still, they chose to trust God and to hold on to the promise. And He proved to be faithful: God gave them this beautiful baby girl.

Are you waiting to see a promise fullfilled in your life? Don’t lose hope! God has not forgotten about you. We pray that you will be reminded of this fact as you listen to Maasbach Radio today.

Free Devotional

“Therefore, in the present case I advise you: Leave these men alone! Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God.”Acts 5:38-39 (NIV)

‘I felt God in the details from the beginning. It was hard work, but I was grateful to do it. I did everything I was supposed to do, but it didn’t turn out the way I hoped’

Have you ever been there?

You’re doing everything you feel Jesus has called you to do. It’s a mix of messy and beautiful, and you’re OK with that. You love the times you sense God doing something powerful, but there are times you work as hard as you can, and it doesn’t turn out the way you think it should at all.

That can be discouraging, to say the least.

In today’s passage, we find Peter and the apostles in a hard place. Despite their faithfulness, they have been jailed and beaten many times. They are human, so there are discouraging moments. Yet each time they are released, they go right back out and do what Jesus asked them to do.

At one point, their dogged persistence troubles the authorities. They meet to discuss their fate. That’s when Gamaliel, a respected member of the community, speaks up:

“Let them go! For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail. But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God” (Acts 5:38-39).

If it is from God, you will not be able to stop them.

What if I looked at my assignments from God differently?

Whether loving a child, leading a ministry or investing in a relationship, if God is in it, then we can rest in it. Success isn’t measured by challenges, our hard work or even the results.

If we know God has asked us to do something, that’s sufficient. All He wants is for us to do our part. We can trust He’s doing His. We might not see the eternal impact, but He does.

There will always be a mix of messy (our feelings, critical people, a desire to see immediate results) and faith as we follow Jesus. We might think it should be easier. We may believe it should bring us joy all the time. We might even equate off-the-charts results with pleasing Him. On days like that, we need to remember this:

If it is from God, you will not be able to stop [her]. Not because of us, but because of Him.

We can rest in what God’s asked us to do, from beginning to end. We’ll do our best. We’ll be faithful. When we complete that assignment, we’ll start listening for the next. We keep loving. We keep our heart attuned to His voice. We don’t allow results or challenges to rob us of the joy of partnering with Him.

If God is in it, and we know that to be true, we are free to simply show up and do our part. After all, God is in charge of the results.

Heavenly Father, You invited me to partner with You, and I’ve made it all about the external. I’ve wrapped it around feelings or results or what I think it should look like. I shift the focus back to You. If You are in it, that’s enough for me. Thank You for allowing me to partner with You in Your plans. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

The miracle that leaves you speechless!

Rachid and his wife are expecting their first baby! When talking to Rachid about the first ultra sound, he was speechless.

‘People don’t realize how big of a miracle it is for life to be born… It really is a miracle.’

Rachid himself experienced a miracle healing when he was 2 years old. He was diagnosed with severe meningitis and had to stay in the hospital. The doctors said he would either die, or be brain damaged for the rest of his life.

One day, a woman came to Rachid’s hospital room and asked his mom why she was crying. When Rachid’s mom told the woman what was going on with her son, the woman offered to pray with her. After three days of prayer, Rachid was completely healed. The doctors were amazed and had no other explanation than that of a miracle.

Rachid shares his story with you to show that God can do the impossible. Believe in Him! He wants to do a miracle in your life.

‘The one thing I’ve learned after my car crash’

A couple of years ago, Tim was involved in a car crash. He got out to help the people in the 8 other cars that were involved because at that moment, he felt fine. But in the evening Tim started to experience severe headaches. The days after the accident the symptoms got worse and the diagnose became clear: whiplash.

For weeks, Tim couldn’t do anything and in this tough situation he was tempted to ask: ‘why God?’ Yet, Tim says he learned a very valuable lesson:

‘The one thing that I’ve learned out of this experience, is that when you seek Jesus in tough times… He will prove Himself to be so close to you.’

Whatever your circumstance is today: sickness, sadness, fear, tragedy, loss or anger, God wants to come close to you. Talk to Him about it!

Free devotional

At Maasbach Radio it’s our prayer that we are able to encourage you! We pray that this devotional will bless you today.

COMPASSION FOR THE LOST.

‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us? ’ – Isaiah 6:8

Scripture for today: Isaiah 6

Is it possible to be satisfied with what we see and hear around us today, after we have been baptized in the Holy Spirit? What caused Jesus to cry for the city of Jerusalem? It was a heart full of compassion! All around us there are people/souls that are lost without God. Today, the children of God need an outpouring of God’s love in their hearts for the lost. A compassion from which we cry out to God through the Holy Spirit: ’Have mercy, oh God, and save those who are doomed!’ Are you ready to do what God wants you to do? To go where God wants you to go? To say what God wants you to say? Are you on fire for Jesus?

Thoughts for today: The baptism in the Holy Spirit and death of our ‘own self’ gives a compassion for souls and for this world that is dying!

Need prayer?

If you have a need in your life, we want to be there for you.

REVIVAL then & now

This week on Maasbach Radio: REVIVAL then & now with Fred de Bruijn

Fred has been a pastor and a teacher for many years. He sat down with us to talk about revival in the church in the past and what’s in store for the generation of today.

Oral Roberts has been a great inspiration to pastor Fred:

‘You want more when the Holy Spirit comes into your life. I also see this in the life of Oral Roberts: not being satisfied with only being saved. I knew I was called to serve God, but how?’

Pastor Fred finds 5 promises in the autobiography of Oral Roberts that he received from God. One of those promises is that there will be a worldwide revival before Jesus comes back.

‘The most important thing for our generation is to prepare for the revival that is coming before Jesus comes back. God is preparing us. There is no revival that started without years of prayer or without a hunger for the Holy Spirit. It doesn’t start in the future. It starts NOW.’

Jeconia’s playlist!

Jeconia, 25, is featured in this month’s personal playlist!

As a talented composer and avid music lover, he shares with you what his favorite songs are at the moment and what they mean to him.

1 Shoulders — For King & Country
I’ve been following this band since the beginning. My favorite For King & Country song and number 1 on my playlist is: ‘Shoulders’. They’re the brothers of Rebecca St. James and have a great sound. This song is about the fact that God always helps us and it tells about His love. It doesn’t matter in what kind of situation we are. Our help comes from Him.

2 Come Awaken Love — Bethel Music

Bethel, a great worshipband, has written this fun, fast song with a deep meaning. Hunter G K Thompson’s voice is very ‘interesting’ but in a good way. The song is about wanting more of God’s heart, which is very applicable for my life as well.

3 Love Has Come For Me — Colton Dixon

He became well known for participating in the Idols tv-show in America (in the 7th and 11th season) and he has an unbelievable voice. This is real Christian rock music. The Bible says that God is love and this song says that where ever I end up, God continues. Love (Jesus) has come for me.

4 Perfect Love — Leeland

A synth driven song, a beautiful voice and well arranged song. This song is about the perfect love of God that drives out all fear. Fear can fall upon us very easily, the question is: ‘what do we do with it?’ This song will certainly help you to get rid of your fear.

5 Heart Like Heaven — Hillsong United

Ofcoarse I can’t forget this one on my list: Hillsong United. This cd, that was recorded in the well known Ocean Way studio in Hollywood in America, is a real top dog. This song is about the holy name of God and that He is worthy of all worship and praise.

6 Made For Me — Toby Mac

I know little artists that have been at the top for so long and who are nominated for a Grammy every year. Toby Mac, who pursued a solo career after DC Talk, is always innovative with a great sound. This song is about his wife and it just has such a great vibe. He sings about the fact that God made her for him and that he can’t believe she’s his.

7 Real Love — Hillsong Young & Free

A band for youth or adults that are young of heart. God’s love is real and it’s for us. I especially like the vocal effects. This song is very helpful during a workout or to get active, ha! This band is fairly new to the scene. They have a modern sound with lyrics that clearly show that God is number one in their lives.

A prayer answered…

We’ve had such a good time with Rachel at Maasbach Radio. You might know her from Maasbach Worship or The Blessing Singers. This week, Rachel came to the studio to talk about her life a little bit.

From the young age of 6 years old, Rachel had a burning desire on her heart: for her father to accept Jesus Christ into his heart. She began praying for him. It wasn’t until many, many years later that Rachel saw this prayer answered. Rachel shared with us how she overcame discouragement and eventually developed an entire new kind of relationship with her father.

Abigail is from the Philippines but was raised in Switzerland. She went on her first missiontrip that took her to Trinidad. Abigail shared openly with us about accepting Jesus in her heart when she was only ten years old and how she’s been searching for her place in God’s plan.

How Mradio blesses me – A Testimony

My name is Alfa Shehu and I am from Katsina, a state in Nigeria, Africa. I listen to Maasbach Radio almost every day at work and it has been a great companion. Maasbach Radio has been a blessing to me and many around the work area.

As a banker and a preacher of God’s Word here in Nigeria, Maasbach Radio helps me to relax my mind, keep me in a happy mood and it encourages me during working hours. Most importantly, anytime I am to speak in the evening, especially during midweek service, Maasbach Radio keeps me in a perfect shape and spirit for the message. I’ve received lots of inspiration listening to Maasbach Radio. I also listen to messages on Maasbach Radio – Message Station and this has been a tremendous source of materials and spiritual growth for me. 

I pray that God will continue to strengthen, provide and uphold Maasbach Radio in this great work.

Do you have a testimony to share? We’d love to connect with you! Send us a message – click here.

Micha Maasbach on tour – Review

Micha Maasbach, leader of the MAP Band and gifted songwriter for MAP and Maasbach Worship is solo-touring the Netherlands! Maasbach Radio had the pleasure of joining Micha in Amsterdam for one of his concerts and got to hang out with him for a little bit – the interview will be posted in a seperate update! Here’s a little inside info on the evening and the world of Micha Maasbach.

Before the concert starts we meet Micha and Stephen at the door, where they’re welcoming all the people that are coming in. It’s an intimate set-up with candles and a little elevated platform where Micha will be sitting with one of his guitars. “The guitar sitting on one side of the platform is tuned differently and the one on the other side of the platform is for back-up purposes”, he explains. Stephen will be accompanying Micha throughout the night with his serious skills of rythm and beats. The drummer for MAP band and Maasbach Worship brought his own setup of percussion instruments.

When the concert starts, everybody immediately eases into the calm and wonderful atmosphere of worship. We see some closing their eyes and simply relaxing in Gods presence. Instead of taking notes, we decide to do the same and we join Micha in a journey through song, scripture and testimony. Every song in the repertoire has a special story and Micha doesn’t seem to hesitate when it comes to sharing his heart in the story. At one point he got a little emotional, sharing a precious childhood memory and how it inspired his song ‘Ik wacht op U, o Heer’ meaning: ‘I wait on You, O Lord’. A touching moment, which we’ll highlight in our interview with him.

You can read Micha’s interview here

Two songstory’s included a funny sidenote. These particular songs were actually written for other Maasbach productions: Maasbach Musicals and Maasbach Worship. The songs didn’t make it on the original project it was written for, “but”, Micha says: “that actually makes me kind of happy, cause now I can use it for my solo-tour. Which is awesome!”

During the concertbreak we see Micha hanging out in the crowd and talking to everyone who came. “He likes to mingle with the people”, Stephen tells us. This ‘family’-kind of feel is exactly how we would describe the evening. After the evening you feel like you actually know Micha. We love how he made it feel so personal and yet the center of it all is and remains: God.

So after this evening of music with Micha Maasbach we go home with a fulfilled and happy heart except for one thing.. we can’t wait to get our hands on a Micha Maasbach solo album! Read Micha’s response here.

@ the Maasbach Conference

The Maasbach Conference took place in The Hague, Holland from October 18th – 25th 2015. 

——————————————————————————————

Maasbach Radio couldn’t be more excited about hearing the radio being played literally everywhere in the Maasbach Conference! We are here to serve you the newest hits when you drink your coffee at the Cups & Cakes coffeebar, the best lounge music when you have dinner at The Blessing Bistro and the sweetest worship when entering Capitol Theatre for the next revival meeting. Thank you for letting us join you in this amazing conference week!

Today is the fifth day of the annual Maasbach Conference in The Hague, Holland. Last night, Capitol theatre was packed out with people from all over the country for our first revival meeting with John TL Maasbach. A special moment for Maasbach Radio when we got to honor one of the founders of the Johan Maasbach World Mission: Willy Maasbach. Together with her husband, the late Johan Maasbach, she layed the foundation for Maasbach Radio to be born when it was founded by their son: David Maasbach. Last night David Maasbach revealed the autobiography of this powercouple and we’re so glad we got to be there!
