DURBAN, South Africa, April 23, 2013 /Christian Newswire/ -- GOD TV has been broadcasting the Great Awakening Healing Revival worldwide from South Africa daily this past week as increasing numbers of miraculous healings are reported. The LIVE broadcasts will continue until at least Sunday, 28 April. Spearheading the event is Canadian Evangelist, Todd Bentley, known for the Florida Healing Outpouring that made international headlines five years ago.

Todd Bentley stood down from ministry in 2008 after the breakdown of his marriage, but has returned with a passion to see people's lives transformed, addicts released from addictions, and the sick recover. He has been restored over the past five years through the ministry of Rick Joyner of MorningStar Ministries and GOD TV founders Rory & Wendy Alec have again recognized God's calling on his life. (See their interview with Todd Bentley at god.tv/revivalalert.)

GOD TV's exclusive broadcasts of the Great Awakening Healing Revival are attracting more and more people who are travelling to Durban, South Africa, from all over the world, and many churches in different countries have set up large screens to televise the revival meetings to their congregations.

GOD TV viewers are also opening their homes to their neighbors and friends as part of GOD TV's Living Room initiative, which aims to make living rooms come alive as people hear the Gospel message and receive healing in their homes.

In addition to the miracles, crowds of people have attended the meetings each night, in South Africa and hundreds of Muslim and Hindu people have committed their lives to Christ. Through GOD TV's global coverage, the Revival has been extended to 240 million homes, a potential audience of 860 million viewers.

"Something is really happening here in Durban. It's a move of God," said Todd Bentley. "It's an explosion of power. The hospitals are calling for prayer. They are bringing the sick from the hospitals too. A man that was crippled and blind from kidney failure was healed. A woman with a large cyst on her uterus for two years received confirmation from her doctor via an ultrasound that it had completely disappeared! This is the closest I've been to revival since Lakeland!"

Rory & Wendy Alec have often spoken on air about a global revival that will incorporate every believer. "We are giving our viewers an opportunity to participate in what is happening in Durban and to receive an impartation from God in their homes," said Rory Alec, "We're so grateful to our partners for helping us take this Revival around the globe."

"We're asking our viewers to stay tuned to GOD TV for the latest schedules as we continue to interrupt our usual programming to bring them revival LIVE as it happens," said Wendy Alec.

GOD TV can be watched via satellite across the USA on channel 365 of DIRECTV and via cable and digital terrestrial transmission in some cities. The Great Awakening Healing Revival is being streamed LIVE at god.tv; also via Roku Streaming players (roku.com) and through the GOD TV App, available on iTunes.
