I Will Preach in Tehran, Iran — in God’s Timing

((music playing)) A very important program today. I am so glad to have with me dear Ellie from our staff in Dallas, Ellie Royal. She is from Iran. Her family is living in Iran today. She was born again 13 years ago. And um she's the one, by the way, that puts together the dailies that you watch. uh she's the one that does all the editing.

A brilliant young lady the Lord sent us. And we just finished having a beautiful conference for selected partners that uh yearly we meet together with a group a small group of partners we invite that come to meet with me and it's a blessed time. And while we were together, we were praying for Iran.

And we'll tell you more about that in just a moment. But because of what of what's happening today in Iran, I felt it's important that we also inform you from someone who lived in Iran, whose family is in Iran and also who is very well connected with the churches in Iran.

In fact, uh not only that, but uh dear Ellie has uh translated a number of my teachings into Farsy and so much more and she's very well connected with the with the pastors inside Iran and outside Iran. So I want to talk to her today and I believe God's going to do some wonderful things through this program.

Dear Jesus, I thank you for what you are going to do, Lord, today. glorify your name and everything we say to you be all the glory precious dearest Jesus and thank you Lord for dear Ellie and thank you for your people I pray you'll bless every one of them meet every need in Jesus name and God's precious people said amen and amen I I I have a great love for the people of Iran I've always had for many many years and we're going to show you a little clip from a conference where I share why that that is so and uh but I do want to begin by asking dear Ellie here u how did you come into the faith in Iran you were you are a Muslim at one time >> yes I was born as a Muslim pastor so first of all let me say thank you so much for having me here it's an honor to be here pastor this is like a dream coming true for me and >> God bless you dear >> yes and thank you so so much for your love for the people of Iran.

Everywhere you go, we hear that you pray for for people of Iran and uh many Christians in Iran, outside Iran, they're all praying to to have you one day in Thran, Iran and all other cities in Iran. Uh >> and you've been hearing from them. I know you told me that. >> Yes, pastor.

Yes, pastor. Uh so we are all excited and uh we love you so much. >> Oh, thank you. Let's go back to 13 years ago when you met the Lord and take us from there and then we'll come to what's going on today and I know you have questions for me about how that fits prophetically.

But go ahead please. Yes, it was 13 years ago that um I heard u about Jesus because uh it is a crime to mention the name of Jesus as God. They know um Muslims know Jesus as a prophet and uh they have a great u respect for Jesus but they don't know Jesus as the Lord and Savior.

Um I was blessed to have this privilege to hear uh the gospel >> from a lady I think you said. >> Yes. From a lady u that we did not know each other that much which is a miracle by itself. Uh she told me uh a little bit about Jesus and um I believe I was not hearing her well.

So she told me may I pray for you? And then she prayed for me and as soon as she prayed over me uh she laid hand on me I felt that electricity and when I opened my eyes all I wanted to know is what what does she have that I don't have. >> Wow. >> The power that feeling that peace uh because that doesn't exist in Islam.

There is no love. >> But I I understand now that the the fastest growing church is inside Iran right now. now. >> Yes, absolutely. >> There's a revival happening inside Iran and then later you got saved. >> Um >> or shortly after? >> Well, the same day after she prayed for me, she prayed over me.

Um uh she did the salvation prayer. I did the salvation prayer with her. >> Okay. >> And then later uh I received a DVD uh which was your teaching uh uh and the teaching was about the power of blood >> from that same lady. Uh yes and I uh and then after that I started somehow I felt this burden in my heart that my people need to hear the true message the the real true message and uh at that time it was not like now with all the apps and um you know uh the way that they can get into the Bible they can get into different materials at that time 13 years ago We didn't have much.

So that's that was the time I started translating your messages. >> You know, I know the days coming. I'm going to preach in Thran. I've been saying that for so long. yesterday uh she got a message from one of the main pastors who actually has a big church in Germany and is well connected with many pastors inside Iran and he said to you and that is so exciting for me what did he say tell him >> yes so he told me that uh send this message please tell pastor Benny that we are ready we are getting prepared to have a crusade in Thran, Iran. >> I've I've asked the Lord, I said, "Lord, before I go home, please, I wanna I I I want to go preach in Thran."

And I believe that is going to happen. And now we need to pray that God will fulfill his will. Now, you are asking me a question about this. So, go ahead and ask me. >> Yes, sure, pastor. I know many people now uh especially in this generation because of the uh power of AI and all this information everything is somehow mixed together.

Yeah. So I would like to ask you pastor that um I know that you talked about uh you showed a clip recently from the president of uh EU European Union. Yeah. >> Um and the restructuring she talked about restructuring Europe >> and with what's going on in Iran uh we know that this this will shift the whole Middle East you know the dynamic.

So, so pastor, how do you see this? >> There's much said in prophecy about that part of the world, but some parts are not very specific. And you know, prophecy is revealed as it happens because in Daniel 12, it says that prophecy will be sealed till the end days.

And now we're in the end days where we are beginning to understand it more and more. But uh what she said the president of the EU is that they are now coming together the European countries to form a separate independent state in Europe. Now how does that fit with Iran?

It's not clear because I don't know that Iran exactly at this point. Nobody really knows what form of government they're going to have uh once this is all over. that's going on right now as we are speaking. Our prayer of course is that the people of Iran will be free >> from this present regime and be free to worship the Lord and be free as a people uh and as a nation.

So, uh once that happens, it will change the entire Middle East. And here's what will happen. Uh I was listening to Lindsey Graham uh on an interview yesterday and he said something I felt that was really quite powerful that once that that that happens that the Saudis will make peace or will have normal relations with Israel.

If that happens, and I believe it will, it's going to be uh an amazing season for the Middle East and the world because it's, you know, they've talked about a special um line uh going between India and Europe economically and so forth and so on. And it has to go through Saudi Arabia and of course Israel and that part of the world.

So there is coming a time it it it seems and the and the it agrees with scripture of great blessings are coming to that part of the world because before the coming of the Lord this gospel shall be preached to the whole world. >> Amen. Amen. >> So right now that world is closed over there. >> Yes. >> So when the Lord said to the whole world it includes Saudi Arabia.

It includes all the nations in the middle in the Middle East and and interestingly uh Iran attacked the Persian nations. My brother Chris lives in Dubai. I talked to him this morning and there were uh noises of explosions even where he was. >> Wow. >> And that was just this morning. >> Uh and we're taping this on Sunday.

So you're seeing it on Monday. Um, and I am I'm very aware of of the fact that the uh Persian Gulf states and the Saudis are not very happy with the fact they were attacked and not just military bases. They they attacked residential areas in Dubai in in different parts of the Persian Gulf.

So that's going to change the picture >> where it's it's possible in the next few days we're going to see the Saudis and the others retaliate >> because if you bomb their own citizens, they're not going to just sit and do nothing. So that tells me that the Middle East is about to to change rapidly rapidly. even Jordan, Egypt, Syria, Lebanon, all that part of the world.

And I go I go back to the Lord saying this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached >> all over the world. Well, all over the world means all over the world, not just the western. >> Yes. >> World, not just Africa and South America. >> Very true. >> Because that part of the world has not really heard the gospel fully. >> Yes.

It's going to happen before the coming of the Lord. >> So Iran has been that one nation sponsoring terrorism, the one nation that's caused a lot of problems even for the Arab nations around. >> Yes. >> And especially Israel as we all know. >> So right now there is a there's a change happening and it's happening faster than most of us even expected it to happen.

I mean who who thought, >> you know, hours ago they can do. >> They just hit like that, you know. And um you know, I met with Hakabe when I was uh our ambassador when I was in Jerusalem not long ago. And uh he had sent and he is a wonderful man by the way.

He's a wonderful dear believer, dear Christian man. >> I really honor that man a lot. and and anyways and he had sent a message to many people on the staff uh at the embassy and so on that they needed to leave and and then I when I heard that I thought okay something is coming up >> and then it happened.

So the next few days will tell and we just need to keep praying and I believe the Lord is going to do some amazing things. Now in connection with Europe uh it's still foggy. still uh not sure how it will but probably I believe it could very well uh bring a lot of blessings way before that union or that new state comes together in Europe or maybe during while the formation of it is happening that there's going to be some kind of economic uh growth all over that part of the world. >> Yes. >> And now you had you had another question. >> Yes.

Yes, pastor. Um >> but may I say by the removal of that regime it will allow the freedom to begin economically >> in the Middle East. >> In the Middle East that yes [clears throat] because uh yes as you mentioned you know everything uh was funded from this Islamic regime that occupied Iran for 47 years.

And >> I remember the very day when Humani came off that plane from Paris and I had a dream about him and the >> wow >> the evil uh that I felt in that dream about him. Uh and that was years and years ago years ago. And now we have seen over 40 years of such pain for the people of Iran.

And the people of of Iran, in my opinion, are the only people in the Muslim world who are ripe for salvation. >> Oh man. Yes. >> I will never forget being in an Iranian store. I when I lived in California, I always used to go and shop for food at an Iranian food store >> on Crown there.

And uh uh one of the employees came up to me weeping, crying, and he said, "I see a man in white. I see a man in white. Who is he? Who is he?" >> And I said, "It's Jesus. It's Jesus." He said, "How can I meet him?" And he got saved within seconds. >> Oh, wow. >> He was weeping and accepted the Lord in the store. >> Praise God. >> And I and I walked out and I'm and I was so amazed.

He was before I could finish, he said, "No, no, I want I want him. I want him. I want to receive him." and he received Jesus so quickly and it was just like a fruit just fell right off that tree. And I've been hearing over and over and been many reports on CBN with my dear friend Gordon Robertson uh and other ministries that talked about the amazing move of God. >> Yes, pastor.

The fast growing in Iran. It's like fruits falling off that tree. Over 5 million people >> that I heard that. Imagine five over five million people now know the Lord Jesus inside Iran. >> This number it might sound mean small but it is not small because um there are no churches in Iran.

There are no church like there are Armenian churches that uh they don't allow >> but they're underground churches. Yeah. There are underground churches, home churches that u uh yes u but but you know because of the safety they have to be very careful. We're we're going to just take you and uh uh bring you into a prayer meeting we just had for a few minutes.

And I want you to pray with us cuz she prayed in that prayer meeting very powerfully la actually yesterday afternoon and um and but I want you let me just kind of uh tell you a few things here that I shared with the people but I I wanted them I wanted you to hear it. uh years ago a man from Iran came to see me in in Australia.

I had made a statement after Kumeni came into power where I said there are no Christians in Iran and this precious man who was the head of the church at the time came to Melbourne Australia Australia where I was and he said brother I've come from Iran to tell you you are wrong that day I was moved so deeply so deeply by his love for the Lord I'll never forget that man as long as I live and he looked at me and he said they they just killed my brother.

The regime killed his brother who was the leader of the church. And he said, "I am now the leader of the church in Iran. Please, please don't ever say again that Christianity doesn't exist." He said, "We all know you and love you in Iran." I was so moved.

Later I was ministering in Istanbul, Turkey at the largest Armenian church in Istanbul and 40 precious pastors drove through the night and came to hear me and they wanted me to pray over them. And we could not show it on TV at the time because it was dangerous for them and their families to be seen on on on on TV.

And ever since then, a love in my heart has been there and has grown since. And uh that's when my prayer was born. Lord, I want to go preach in Iran because I saw the love for the Lord not only in that sweet man who came to correct me lovingly but also with those 40 pastors who drove through the night dangerous territory and came through by car. uh many of them by different cars and came to the to the to the service in Istanbul and told me about the danger they put themselves through to just come and be prayed over.

I was so moved. I'm still moved to this day when I think about it. So, let's go right now and and pray. Uh, and it'll just be a few minutes of prayer and then we're going to come back and then I'm going to have dear Ellie tell us a little more that I I believe will help us and prepare all of us for what's coming.

Watch this. Just quickly pray for your people and that God will will bring liberty. >> Oh, heavenly father, I thank you. I'm I'm so thankful to you that you allowed us to witness this prophetic moment in Iran right now after all these years of prayers, all these years of intercession.

Thank you that you are faithful. You are our Jehovah Sabay. And I'm and I know Lord that you as your word says that you set your you said it in Jeremiah 49 that you set your throne in Ilam which is Iran. And Lord God we believe that this is the moment for Iran and the Middle East, the whole Middle East.

We know that when Iran gets free, the whole Middle East will be free. So Lord God, I want to pray we as church I pray for first of all for all these soldiers that now they are fighting for justice that right now Israeli soldiers, the American soldiers, Lord God.

I pray for wisdom for these fighters, Lord God. And I ask for the hedge of protection over Israel right now, Lord God. And I pray for wisdom for Trump, for Netanyahu, for Reza Palavi, Lord God, that we know that he will stand for the people of Iran. Lord God, we know that this is the moment for Iran and that part of the world before the rapture happens and the church is ready.

We are prepared for this moment. Lord God, we are prepared and we know that you will save Iran and you will I speak salvation over Iran. I speak salvation in every household in Iran. Lord God, let this generation and next generation know you as their Lord. Lord, as their Lord and Savior God, let let my people be free from this Islamic regime.

We will see the day that we will worship your holy name in every street in Iran with freedom, with no fear, Lord God. And I pray right now for the open doors for ministers of God to get to Iran. Preach the gospel in the Middle East. Not only Iran, but also we pray for salvation for Israel.

Salvation and protection for Israel. We know that this is the moment before the rapture. Let us see Pastor Benny over there to have a crusade in Iran, Lord God. And I know that day will be the day that many people will give their heart to you, Lord. And I pray for for Breza Palavi right now.

And I know, Lord God, I pray for that the same wisdom that you gave to Nemiah of in 52 days, he rebuilt those walls. Lord God, I pray for the same wisdom over this man. Use him to bring dignity back to Iran, Lord God. Lord, and thank you for delivering my people, Lord God. >> Amen.

Amen. Amen. Lord, we pray that you'll give wisdom to President Trump now. >> Protect our soldiers, our military. Give wisdom to BBany. Give wisdom to his people. And >> Lord, I pray that the people of Iran will rise now will rise against that wicked regime and a stable government, >> a stable government, a peaceful government will take over >> in Jesus name.

Your will be done Lord. Your will be done in Jesus name. >> Amen. >> Amen. Thank you for watching this with us. I wanted uh Ellie to share with us what we as a minister now are doing in reaching the people of Iran with the word of God.

So it's uh a very busy year but I have such a hunger such a heart for the people of Iran and the news today was that they were rejoicing. Yes. >> When the news came >> people of Iran they are all rejoicing >> how many was killed. >> Yes.
