David
Barnard Ministry Profile
David was born into a minister’s home but that was no assurance
that life would go good for him, nor would the Christian upbringing
lead him to a life of faith in Christ. Just because one sits in a church will not make them a Christian any more than if one were to sit in a garage over night -they would not be a car in the morning.
At the age of 23 David was far from his heritage and God. Drugs,
and the Southern California live style had all but ruined his life.
The prayers of his family and the faithfulness of God to His word
reached David. The result was a life transforming experience with
the Lord Jesus Christ. David relates to youth through his testimony,
singing and music talent.
Over the years, he has traveled across the USA and in over 30 countries
of the world declaring the love of God and His transforming power
in churches, city wide meeting, conferences, conventions, radio
and television. David conducted several crusades for Dr. Lester Sumrall in South Bend, ID as well as in the church Dr. Sumrall established in Mania, Philippines. David was a regular speaker at Full Gospel Business Men's Fellowship International Conventions through out America and Canada with Demos Shakarian. Also David was a frequent guest on the Trinity Broadcasting Network Praise The Lord program hosted by Paul and Jan Crouch. The goal of his ministry is to bring the good
news of Jesus Christ to people of every color and culture, changing
lives, one person at a time.
David accepted an invitation from Rev. Ray Bloomfield to come to
serve as pastor in New Zealand for two years at Faith Tabernacle, Pakuranga, NZ. Ray Bloomfield was instrumental in sparking a national revival in New Zealand. He is recognized as the founders of the Holy Spirit Revival that swept through New Zealand and birthed many great ministries. Frank Houston received his call to full time ministry through Ray's ministry. At the close of the New Zealand ministry David served one year
as national Evangelist in Australia, conducting crusades and concerts
across Australia. David went Australia to conduct a two week meeting
in Brisbane before heading on to Indonesia and India for crusades.
That two week meeting turned into a year of continuous revival each night except Monday though
out the major centers of Australia. Spiritual renewal broke out
and churches saw incredible increase in numbers and in the growth
of their congregations spiritually, as the result of the ministry
of the Holy Spirit.
The dancing and rejoicing praise broke out in the meetings; this
brought out the people to see this freedom. Most churches had about
100-150 in attendance, but during the meetings and after, the attendance
grew in some cities to over 1,200 - 1,500 people. The meetings had
to be moved to city center halls, school auditoriums. Heaven will
only revel how many lives were changed by the power of the Holy
Spirit. TV stations took notice and invited David to appear on local
morning shows. Schools extended invitations to come sing and share
testimony. Shopping Centers opened to do Christian Concerts. It was a move of God and it is so thrilling to see that it has continued and great churches have grown up over recent years through out Australia; most notably the world wide impact of Hillsong Church.
Serving as a Pastor, Evangelist and Teacher of God’s word,
David founded and served ten years as pastor of Holy Spirit Centre located in
San Francisco, CA. David was heard daily on 50,000 watt AM radio station KFAX and weekly on television. David also pastored in Riverside, CA, Camarillo, CA and the San Diego, CA area. Teaching only from the Bible and personal experience, his messages
have repeatedly disturbed the comfortable, soothed the wounded and
revealed the hope that is available through Christ Jesus.
David
communicates the ageless truths of the Bible is today’s language.
The teaching ministry prepares people for life's opportunities and
enables them to know the power of living faith and the principles
of praise. David is an accomplished guitarists, singer and inspires
people to enter into a freedom of worship of the Lord.
Today there
are many diverse ministries. Different gifts, duties and varied
results. With the advent of mega churches and Christian television
networks the role of evangelism is expanding rapidly both at home
and around planet earth. It is the same Holy Spirit mission: present
Jesus Christ to all and teach men and women about the new life in
Christ. That is what David Barnard Ministries is all about. Ephesians
4:10 He
that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens,
that he might fill all things. And he gave some, apostles;
and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and
teachers; For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of
the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ. Till we all
come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son
of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the
fullness of Christ Different
gifts. Different duties. Different results. Same Holy Spirit mission. "And he said unto them, Go ye into all
the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
Jesus Christ - Mark 16:15
