Dear Bishop Ismael Arellano,
Apostolic Assembly,
and JAM Partners,

Greetings in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ!  Within the last three months we have seen some spectacular miracles of the soul and body.  God is accomplishing His greatest in this last hour.  This crusade in Santiago , Chile just raised the intensity level of revival.  The results are greater than ever!  In this one crusade the blind saw, the deaf heard, the mute spoke, growths disappeared before our eyes, cancer was removed instantaneously, hundreds were filled with the Holy Ghost, and one person was resurrected from a coma.  Bro. Jorge Contreras, the president of the Apostolic Church of Chile, was so happy and has requested for us to return every year to continue what has been started.  He informed us that they had never had anything of this magnitude before in their country.  The Apostolic Church of Chile has taken a giant leap into great revival.

We had a wonderful crusade team.  This team had the experience, tools, and faith that was necessary to flow with the Spirit’s leading.  They worked in perfect unity and were in complete submission to the direction of the Holy Ghost!

From the middle of last year to the crusade dates, advertising pieces were put on radio and television throughout the city of Santiago.  We had great favor from the Lord in the area of telecommunications.  The Christian Tabernacle Choir has been aired promoting their music and ministry.  This was a great help to the promotion of the crusade.  In fact, this was such a vital part of the success of the crusade that the devil felt he needed to fight against this favor.  A pastor from Santa Ana , CA went a week before the crusade to slander our church and discourage people from attending the Apostolic crusade.  This pastor spoke badly of Pastor A. Aguilar and the CT Choir.  When we arrived in Santiago, the brethren told us that the television station doors of opportunity had been closed.  That same day, very late at night, several team members felt a spiritual battle in their rooms.  They began to war in the spirit and God assured us that we will have victory!  The next day victory came.  During our prayer and planning session we received a phone call from the station producer.  He extended an invitation to Bishop Prado and myself to be interviewed live on national television!  That Thursday night, we did the television interview and then God did a miracle.  The producer was so moved by the anointing that he asked us to be on their television program church service on the Monday after the crusade.  Bishop Prado felt in the Spirit that this was a great opportunity and was moved to tell them to give us the whole two hour program and we would minister in song and preaching!  And... they agreed!  I felt that this was going to be the icing on the cake.  And the crusade had not even started yet!

We will come back to this testimony in a moment...

It was Friday night, before we boarded the bus headed to the crusade, that we had a team prayer in the basement of our hotel.  There a very powerful breakthrough in the Spirit gave us confirmation that we will see great miracles.  And it happened.  The Christian Tabernacle Choir, directed by Bro. Jeffrey Aguilar, opened up with praise and worship.  The atmosphere was set.  That first night I preached, "The Power of the Spoken Word."  This word set the tone for the rest of the crusade.  During the altar call several people were healed, many received the Holy Ghost, and the faith of the people increased.  A couple of military solders stood on a wall observing us from America .  Understand that is was the week that the war started in Iraq .  Later we found out that those soldiers were reporting the crusade results to the president of the country of Chile .  They reported to him that the team from America came to bless Chile, not in the name of America, but in the Name of Jesus!

Saturday night, Bishop Joe Prado preached, "Jesus Christ Is Your Healer."  He ministered to individuals to build the faith of the people.  Bishop Prado felt that someone would be healed from cancer and a woman came up to confirm that she needed healing from cancer in her stomach area.  Bishop Prado had team member Jamie Aguilar lay hands upon that woman.  Several members of the team give testimony that they saw this woman’s stomach rolling back and forth under the power of God as she felt an instantaneous change in her body!  She was healed!  It looked incredible.  Another man was healed from pain in his nerve endings in his neck.  After prayer, he was healed!  Bishop Prado felt it was time for a mass outpouring of healing.  He asked me to speak the Word of Faith!  During the Word of Faith he asked me to speak to people in hospitals near by so I did!  A testimony came back to us on Monday at the television station of a person who was healed in the hospital at that very same moment approximately 9:30PM Chile time, but I will get to that in a moment.  Several other people came to the platform to testify including a woman who was healed from migraine headaches and her niece was completely deaf and mute since birth but could now hear and speak for the first time!  Praise Jesus!  A man testified that he felt fire go through his body and tumor disappeared from his side.  The pain instantaneously left his body!  Thank you Jesus!  During the altar call my wife laid hands on a woman who was led to the altar.  My wife said she thought that this woman needed healing in her legs because that brought a chair for her to sit in at the altar.  But as she laid hands tears began flowing down the cheeks of that woman and her eyes were open very wide!  Later that woman came to the platform to testify that she could not see anything.  She was blind but she could now see perfectly!  Wow!

On Sunday night, Bishop Prado preached the final message of the crusade, "The Power of the Holy Ghost!"  After the message he asked me again to speak the Word of Faith.  I spoke the Word of Faith two separate times.  Bishop Prado testified that during the outpouring of the Holy Ghost a wind blew on the people as they were filled!  That night more than 120 were filled with the Holy Ghost!  Bishop Contreras confirmed that over the three days more than 300 were filled with the Holy Ghost for the very first time!  Thank you Jesus!  That night we sang, danced, and rejoiced the night away with that song in Spanish, "Bendiceme Ahora" which means bless me right now!

Now back to the television program...

On Monday night, the CT Choir ministered in song and Bishop Prado ministered the Word.  A young man came to testify during the program that when the Word of Faith was spoken on the Saturday of the crusade, his relative who was in a coma in the hospital opened his eyes and was completely healed at approximately 9:30PM Chile time.  A team member testified that a person was healed in the state of Washington from cancer at the very same moment and was in an Apostolic church the next Sunday testifying.  Testimonies are still coming back to us that when people see the program they are receiving healing!  This station televises throughout the country of Chile .  As we rode the bus back to the hotel, on of the producers was riding with us and he told us that they have never had a service like that.  He said that he feels it was a great thing for them and he hopes to see us again next year!

The people of Chile were so happy and Bishop Jorge Contreras was so blessed!  He wants us to return next year and every year.

I would like to thank the team for making the sacrifice and transmitting faith to this country.  This team will forever be etched as the pioneers of the first crusade in Santiago , Chile.  Years from now we will hear how thousands are coming to God in Chile!

A prophecy was given to Bishop Contreras and the Apostolic Church .  Many different leaders of denominations and organizations will seek his counsel.  And the Apostolic Church of Chile will see a great harvest of thousands of souls.

We would like to extend a warm thank you to all those who supported us in prayer and with your giving.  You opened the doors for many to receive their miracle!

Revival is not coming.  Revival is here!

Jesus Be Glorified,
International Evangelist Jason Abel Aguilar

Thank you to our JAM Partners for making this crusade possible.  Thank you for your burden to reach the world with the Gospel.

Faith has convinced us (and experience has proven) that if we do our part, God will pour out His Spirit, filling not just hundreds, but thousands of lost people with the Holy Ghost, which will lead them to water baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus!  Dare to believe with us that we are going to see the greatest move of God that we have ever seen.  As we agree, touching heaven, we will see the handiwork of God at its finest.
