“God is doing a mighty work here!” Pastor Benny Hinn declared during the final moments of Jakarta’s 2006 Miracle Celebration, held at Taman Impian Jaya Ancol, the largest and most popular amusement park in Indonesia’s capital. “I am so amazed at what has taken place. We are seeing the book of Acts come alive in our midst. History has been made during these three services. To God be all the glory!”
A mountain of empty wheelchairs and crutches served as visible reminders of what had just taken place. The brilliance of Jesus’s glory shone so bright that it was as though a blinding light of the presence of Almighty God flooded our midst. It was a miracle hour like nothing I have ever witnessed. Nearly all of the total 1.5 million souls who attended the three services had raised hands to signify their desire to receive Jesus Christ into their hearts.
As Pastor Benny spoke during the closing moments, the audience—stretching as far as the eye could see—erupted in celebration and praise to the Lord Jesus. It was a fitting ending to this event—the largest crowd gathered in a religious service in the history of the world’s fourth largest nation. No wonder this is already being touted worldwide as the “Miracle of Indonesia!”

First Night Miracles Cause Excitement Throughout Jakarta
Jakarta’s Governor Sutiyoso welcomed Pastor Benny on Friday evening, opening the Benny Hinn Ministries Miracle Celebration by speaking warmly of the evangelist’s message of love and hope. The historic services, the result of a personal invitation from President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, took place after months of intensive preparation. Miracle after miracle happened during each step of planning.
On the first evening, soon after Indonesia’s majestic national anthem rang through the Ancol park, Pastor Benny spoke through an interpreter of his desire to tell each of the precious people about God’s love—to let them know that God loves them. He preached a message of healing and salvation, citing many illustrations of powerful miracles.
“Jesus Christ went about healing all and preaching the message of salvation,” he declared. “If Jesus would take the time to heal the leper, the paralytic, the cripple, and even a person with a fever, He will heal you tonight!”
It was a message that would continue to ring out through the massive crowd—in excess of 450,000 people the first night, over a half million the second night, and well over a half million the final service. By the second and third evenings, people were sitting on tree limbs and watching from every available building surrounding the Ancol park.
On the first night, mighty waves of miracles moved throughout the audience. People of all ages came forward to share testimonies of healing:
A parade of empty wheelchairs could be seen above the heads of the crowd as Pastor Benny urged those who had been healed to make their way toward the platform.
A woman who had difficulty walking and could not bend her legs left her wheelchair behind and began walking. As Pastor Benny attempted to find out what had happened, she dropped to her knees and lifted her hands. The interpreter said, “She wants to take time to thank God for healing her!”
Piles of crutches were left behind by people who could suddenly walk.
A little girl who came to the service with a broken leg and twisted foot was healed completely. Amazingly, she took the brace off and began walking unassisted.
A woman who had been pain-ridden due to a severe accident was released from all pain. She began walking and running, expressing total joy and freedom!
A young boy, deaf from birth, was healed. His mother beamed with excitement as her son began to repeat Pastor Benny’s words, phrase by phrase, with the audience roaring with approval.
Before the incredible first night’s service ended, Pastor Benny spoke openly of the greatest miracle of all, and then he invited all who wanted to give their lives to Jesus Christ to pray with him.
“I looked out over the audience,” Pastor Benny reported afterward, “and as far as I could see, every hand went up. What a wonderful moment, to lead these precious souls in a prayer of salvation!”
After the conclusion of the service, as the staff prepared to leave, a man stepped forward and said, “I was so blessed tonight. I’m the man who built this complex, and to see it used in this way gave me such joy.” It was the perfect footnote to a powerful first night’s service!
Second Service—“Miracles are happening!”
On Saturday, as soon as the worship music began, a commotion started in one area of the park.
“What’s happening over there?” Pastor Benny asked.
“Someone has been healed!” people shouted.
Pastor Benny quickly learned that a man, previously crippled, had stood up from his wheelchair and began to walk!
God’s power continued to fall on the audience as the evening progressed. “Miracles are happening!” Pastor Benny declared. More and more people began testifying of amazing miracles:
A young woman who had suffered with cancer for nine years walked onto the platform with two IV bags trailing behind her. She declared that she had been healed and wanted to sing! Pastor Benny handed her the microphone, saying, “It’s not my service. I’m just the preacher!” She sang a song of praise in her native language. As she sang, her eyes sparkled and the crowd responded enthusiastically.
A boy deaf from birth came carrying his hearing aids in his hand. He could hear and repeat after Pastor Benny without the aids.
A man who had cancer of the face was healed. His ear was opened, and he could speak again.
A woman who had a feeding tube protruding from her nose had not been able to eat anything for several years. Suddenly, the muscles in her throat began functioning properly. She could swallow for the first time in years. As she stood on the platform, she drank from a glass of water, something she had not been able do before.
Many deaf ears were opened.
Cancerous tumors vanished.
Men and women of all ages came weeping with joy at God’s healing touch upon their bodies.
As the service came to a close, Pastor Benny said, “God’s power is going to be twice as strong tomorrow. Come expecting your miracle!”
Final Service—More Powerful Than Before
The Sunday afternoon crowd swelled to well over a half million hungry souls. As before, traffic was jam-packed on roads and parking access areas. The only way Pastor Benny could get to the park was by police helicopter. Again, as during the services on Friday and Saturday nights, the immense crowd seemed to sense that something historic was happening. Worship music filled the Ancol park.
They were not disappointed. God’s mighty anointing flowed over the audience. Hearts were drawn to respond by the hundreds of thousands to invite Jesus Christ inside. Miracle after miracle took place:
One of the most dramatic moments occurred when one of the nation’s most popular musical entertainers, stricken with lung cancer, came onto the stage. In front of the throng, he was dramatically healed—literally beating on his chest where the tumor had once been. Overcome with emotion and gratitude, the instantly recognizable celebrity began singing beautifully, miraculously, a most appropriate song, “How Great Thou Art!” in his native Bahasa Indonesia language. The audience cheered wildly, giving God the glory for doing the unthinkable!
Not only was the popular singer healed, but also his composer, who came onstage to accompany him on piano, was healed from cancer!
A man who was carried into the service, lame and cancer-ridden, was healed, then he jumped off the stretcher and began walking.
A young boy with asthma and mobility problems was totally healed. He came up to the stage with his father. As Pastor Benny and the entire audience watched, the boy became a blur of activity, running back and forth on the stage, then up and down the stairs. The boy’s father openly wept at the sight of his previously ill son scampering around!
As with the two previous services, the platform was increasingly jammed with empty wheelchairs, stretchers, crutches, and even breathing equipment—no-longer-needed, vivid testaments to God’s healing power!
Over and over, God moved with power and freedom through the souls gathered in Jakarta. Before the evening ended, it was apparent to all that the “Miracle of Indonesia” was just beginning. With 13,600 islands and 360 ethnic groups stretching across three time zones, Indonesia is the world’s fourth largest nation. Without a doubt, impact from the Benny Hinn Miracle Celebration will continue to spread throughout the region.
“God is doing a mighty work here,” Pastor Benny reported afterward. “This is Indonesia’s hour—and a mighty open door. Our staff members and I are so grateful for your prayers. I am asking our worldwide partners to continue to lift up the leaders of this nation and ask God Almighty to move powerfully throughout these precious people! What God has done here is just the beginning of what He intends to do all over the globe. This is our destiny for the future! This is a monumental door that has been opened to us after all these years. And this is just the beginning, for this hour is the greatest time for evangelism. Now is the time to reach souls, souls, SOULS with the glorious Gospel of Jesus Christ! Now, more than ever, we cannot hold back!”
Be a vital part of upcoming historic crusades!
God is doing a mighty work through each Holy Spirit Miracle Crusade! Upcoming international crusades are increasingly expensive because of extensive travel and setup costs. The Miracle Celebration in Indonesia, for example, has been one of our most expensive events to date, but the hundreds of thousands of changed lives are already making the investment in these souls incredibly worthwhile.
Just as God continues to pour out a Season of Historic Harvest of Souls, He is also sending a season of great financial harvest and blessing to His people who plant seed into the fertile soil of this great outpouring! As you sow your seed today for souls, you can expect our wonderful Lord to move mightily in your life as you watch Him “open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it” (Malachi 3:10).
Be part of upcoming historic crusades through a sacrificial gift today, for by your giving, many are now living!
