Australia... it's time!
Australia... it's time!
It's time to re-seed the nation with the Word of God... and bring Holy Spirit revival to the hearts of His people! For generations, countless Churches across the towns of this nation have been closing and many people have lost the opportunity to know Jesus. This is the calling of the Tent of Promise for the past 30 years. Preaching and demonstrating the Good News all around Australia. Australia, the Great Southland of the Holy Spirit is the prophetic reality for this nation.
We can work with you!
We can work with you!
The Tent of Promise comes at the invitation of a Church (no matter the size), combined Churches or at the invitation of organised Christian events and Ministries. At the heart of our ministry, we present the Gospel one-on-one using our 30 meter long Bible Panorama from Genesis to Revelation. We also minister through puppets, street ministry, through crusade outreaches with faith-filled preaching & with powerful evangelism & biblical teaching for the Church to see them catch the fire of the Holy Spirit to reach their own town. The Living Water will bring refreshing to your Church & community as we see revival, the Holy Spirit, break out across Australia in miracles, signs & wonders!

Church Revival & Equipping
Our forward team led by David & Kristen will come to your Church ministering the Word of God in power, imparting faith to believe and receive the promises of God and propelling the body into their purposes. Our team also has a strong anointing to ignite the hearts of the Church with a passion to step up and step out of the building to reach the lost.
We can minister the Bible Panorama to the Church, bringing Revival to this Nation. It is the Church who carry the Holy Spirit so it will be the Church who will see the prophesied carriers of the greatest outpouring of the Holy Spirit in Revival to Australia.
We are on mission to Australia! To be Jesus' weapon against the works of the enemy, His mouthpiece to the Church and His tool in the harvest field of salvation.

To bring the time of refreshing across Australia by breaking up the unplowed ground and bringing revival to hearts of God's people.
The fire of the Holy Spirit is breaking out across the Great Southland of Australia.
Community Events & Evangelism
The Panorama gives us an intimate way to share God's love, and we have found that the Holy Spirit leads the minister to speak directly into the needs of the individual, with the gifts of the Spirit flowing.
The preaching of the Gospel in conjunction with the panorama has seen tens of thousands of people give their lives to Christ, right across Australia.

The History of the Tent of Promise
"Australia First" were the words the Spirit of God spoke to Bishop Barry & Pastor Sandra Cunnington in the early 1990's. Since this day the Tent of Promise took shape with the Bible Panorama, a 1000 seat marquee, semi trailers and buses.
The ministry team traveled full time around Australia up to 2009, and part time since, seeing many thousands of salvations for Jesus.
Our Work
The Tent of Promise is a non-denominational work of reconciliation, equipping, calling and establishing the Word of God across rural Australia in support of local Churches. We have seen over 15,000 people make a decision for Christ and many set free, healed, encouraged, filled with faith and revived by the Holy Spirit across Australia.
After a 10 year recess as Senior Ministers of the Promise Faith Centre Church in Coolangatta, the Holy Spirit has again moved on Bishop Barry & Pastor Sandra to relaunch the Tent of Promise ministry to the Nation with a new shape and more flexible footprint.
Again, God's call of "Australia First" has mobilised the Tent of Promise back to Australia.
The Call back to the Nation
The bondage shattering Power of God
After 16years of service under the senior ministers, Reverends David and Kristen Semmens are leading a team compelled by Jesus to now step up and step in, and be sent out amongst the nation of Australia to deliver His Word, bring salvation in the Name of Jesus, bring deliverance to those bound, healing to the broken, truth to a hard hearted and lost people living without hope and Holy Spirit fire to the Church.
To be Jesus' weapon against the works of the enemy, His mouthpiece to the Church and His tool in the harvest field of salvation.
To bring the time of refreshing across Australia by breaking up this unplowed ground.
Our God is a prophetic God and so we know, revival is coming and it will come through His People who carry the Holy Spirit!

Healing that saved her from losing a part of her leg
Healing that saved her from losing a part of her leg
I always looked forward to the [Ipswich] Easter Monday Funday, I always tell people about how Pastor Barry Cunnington took time out of his busy day and along with my friend they prayed for me, especially asking for any poison to be removed from my body. I hadn't told anyone that I had been bitten on the leg by a spider weeks before hand and that I had an abscess which, when I had seen my doctor a few days before Easter, he told me I could end up losing 1/2 my calf muscle.
When I got home that day my friend said look at your leg, for the first time in weeks it was dry and scabbing over.
I have often told people this story because on the morning it was red raw and weeping. In fact, when I went back to see the doctor a few days after Easter, he couldn't believe that it was healing and reducing in size.
~ Elizabeth A. - Ipswich Easter Monday Funday Volunteer testified on Facebook 22/02/2022 of a healing received years earlier
Called to the Harvest Field
"Wow! What an incredible adventure. We are so grateful that the Lord would call us for this mission."
Wilcannia Outreach Team Member, 2019
I now know who I am!
"WOW! I just want to take a minute to thank the Lord. The past 6 weeks since my surgery has been the most amazing, uplifting, enlightening time of my life. My growth through both knowledge and experience has been exponential! I have done a complete 180 degree turn around in my life from the direction I was heading in (especially spiritually) as I came to the end of myself, and ended up finding God through a powerful encounter... It transformed my life in an instant! The revaluation I have experienced has been life changing. Who I was to who I am now are two completely different people as I actually had no idea who I was. I literally could not answer the question “Who am I?”, but now I can! All I have to say is "Thank you Jesus, as I have been saved by grace †"
~ S.P. - A Receiver of Christ's Salvation, 2018
Testify of God Intersecting Your Life in the Tent of Promise!
Testifying of Jesus' effects in our life is a very important part of the Christian walk. It's actually our responsibility to do so and not be ashamed of the Gospel!
Share your testimony of your encounter with Jesus in the Tent of Promise. Perhaps you received a Rhema Word - a Word in season. Maybe you were set free, healed or baptised in the Holy Spirit. Maybe one of our ministers delivered a Word of Knowledge and God's changed something for you. The number of ways God can intersect your life is uncountable and unique.
Our Heavenly Father loves to give good gifts to His people! He loves us and it is His hearts desire to touch our lives when we most need it, and to go on living with us daily, empowering us to reach our fullest potential in His purpose.
Share your testimony with us, and we can help declare the goodness of God in your testimony across Australia!

Have you hosted the Tent of Promise?
Just as it is important to testify on a personal level of the goodness of God, it is also important that ministers and co-ordinators also testify of the Grace of God received. When God imparts something, gives something, deposits something or starts something, we must acknowledge Him in thankfulness.
Help us share more of the Gospel around Australia by sharing your testimony of hosting the Tent of Promise and the impact it has had on your Church, your town or just as importantly, on yourself.
Deliverance
My daughter and son were visibly touched by God, healed and set free from demonic oppression. All glory to God. God is real and still healing today. The presence of God is awesome and the Power to heal. I believe God is working in all our hearts and renewing our minds.

Darkness to Light
The last 2 weeks have been the most important days since my salvation. It has taken me from the darkness to the light exposing my sin and hurts along the way in love. I highly recommend this to every Christian who wants to walk in freedom.

Holy Spirit Fire
Holy Spirit Fire
I praise & thank God by His grace I am what I am now. I was so blessed by attending. Pastor Barry was really on fire with God. This shed is like a blazing fire, empowered by the Holy Spirit. I learned a lot. I am now filled with the knowledge of Gods wisdom and spiritual understanding. I thank God & praise Him that I came here & chose life and blessing. I was full of joy, rejoicing what God has done in this seminar– many lives have been changed, healed, delivered from bondages. Thank You God for what You have done.
I was 16yrs out of the “tomb”. Yes, I was alive with Jesus but my self-centred life was still intact and had me bound. Praise God, last week I was completely delivered from offences and loneliness. God destroyed the yokes & bondages in my life. I’m like a calf jumping all the time. My soul has been restored. The message that hit me is the power of the blood of Jesus, the power of His Holy Spirit and that I am to focus on Jesus, His blood shed for me and that He carried all my sin, diseases, pain and everything on the cross and He doesn’t accuse us. Thank God the blood of Jesus set me free completely and I have freedom. I will stay in the light every time the devil tries to rob me and keep looking to Jesus, the author and finisher of my faith. I want more, I am still hungry for His truth so I will be transformed in His image, so His light will shine in me.

I thought I was in the light, but I was deceived
I thought I was walking in the light but I was deceived. I was sitting in darkness. I thank God that His light exposes the darkness in my soul and if I am willing He will heal those hurts that are hidden in the dark. Lord I am willing. Shine Your light and heal my soul.

Suicidal
Earlier this year my Lord had delivered me from depression. I allowed myself to be disappointed about something. I was depressed and felt hopeless. I wanted to give up and end my life. As I attended the Healing School in May 2010 I was crying out to my Lord day and night. He lifted me up by the Light of His Word. I am restored now with abundance of His joy and peace and my soul is in the process of being healed.

Healed, convicted, set free!
Dear Pastors, God bless your loving & caring hearts. I would like to give thanks to God for the body of Christ, my sister invited me here and I needed to be healed, and I believe my healing is beginning, the teaching that Paul stayed till Christ was formed in the disciples I feel that this is happening here.
Listening to the teaching getting convicted, being set free, the joy that the Lord has given me, I know the world can’t give me this or fill this void. Friendship and fellowship has been outstanding and I thank the good Lord for making this possible, the Holy Spirits power.
