"EXTRA FOR MONDAY,
SEPTEMBER 11, 2006--UPDATE ON TODD BENTLEY'S HEART ATTACK"
From the desk of Steve Shultz:
Dear Elijah List readers, below is an update from Todd Bentley's team regarding his condition.
Please continue in prayer! We have posted two of his products--by purchasing them, you are supporting Todd's ministry and family. He leaves some product in our warehouse and when we sell them, we then send money for the products to his ministry.
Blessings,

Todd Bentley Update--Prayers Needed!
To All Fresh Fire friends,
We ask that you would please keep Todd Bentley and Fresh Fire Ministries in your prayers at this time. Todd had a minor heart attack on Saturday night in Uganda, Africa, after preaching at the last night of the miracle festival. He was taken to the hospital where he had another minor heart attack. He is presently resting in a hospital in Kampala, Uganda, where he continues to undergo various tests.
The doctors have diagnosed his condition as "Angina Pectoria," which is chest discomfort or pain that radiates to the right or left arm, back, neck, or jaw. Angina occurs when part of the heart muscle is not receiving enough blood and oxygen to meet the immediate need. This decrease in blood and oxygen is temporary, and usually due to anarrowing or a spasm in a coronary artery. Todd's condition, they say, was brought on by high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and stress.
Todd will continue to rest in the hospital for the next few days. He is expected to return home this Thursday, at the same time the rest of the team returns.
Prayer Needs:
Please pray for healing and peace for Todd at this time, and for wisdom for the doctors.
Pray for his wife Shonnah, and their children, that the peace of God, which passes all understanding, would guard them.
Pray for protection and traveling mercies for the Uganda team as they return home.
We also ask that you would cover the ministry in prayer right now, and agree that the Lord would give us wisdom with regards to future ministry events and scheduling.
We appreciate all your support, encouragement, and prayers at this time. The Lord has given us, at Fresh Fire Ministries, a peace that what the enemy meant for evil, God will work for good. We are confident that God will bring Todd through, and that he will be stronger than ever on the other side of this situation.
Below are some Healing Scriptures you can use to pray out over Todd, the ministry, and this situation:
"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. No evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling." Psalms 91:1, 10
"The angel of the LORD encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them." Psalm 34:7
"But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you." Romans 8:11
"God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him." Acts 10:38
"Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he shall be forgiven. Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much." James 5:14-16
"Bless the LORD, O my soul;
And all that is within me, bless His holy name!
Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits:
Who forgives all your iniquities,
Who heals all your diseases,
Who redeems your life from destruction,
Who crowns you with lovingkindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things,
So that your youth is renewed like the eagle's." Psalms 103:1-5
Dear Elijah List,
This information is made up from emails and/or phone calls received by Danny Steyne and Bill Lancaster.
I have not been able to get to Todd's site, so I am not including it at this time. It might be overwhelmed.
We just learned that Todd Bentley had a heart attack while doing a crusade in Uganda.
God has been using Todd throughout the world to gather an d release the Kingdom with power.
My understanding is that Todd had a heart attack and was rushed to a quality hospital in the area. He then had a second heart attack but is now stabilized. I understand he is receiving good care now.
They are trying to fly Todd out at the earliest possible flight which is thought to be Tuesday.
Please be in prayer for Todd, Shonnah and their three ch ildren, Lauralee, Esther and Elijah.
Father, we join with many who are reading this and speak total healing to Todd right now. Raise him up to continue releasing your awesome love and power throughout this earth!
Much Love ... Many Blessings!
Steve Shultz, Danny Steyne, Bill Lancaster
