The following profile of Dr. Jonathan David was copied from his website at Jonathan-David.org. What a tremendous blessing he is!
Dr. Jonathan David is one of the pioneers of the Prophetic Movement in the earth. His accurate prophetic ministry with a unique teaching mantle provides the cutting edge to reach the nations of the world.
The prophetic Ministry has brought him the favor of God and the privilege to minister to presidents, prime ministers, and governors and government officials in many nations. His prophetic accuracy has been instrumental to set many national leaders on course towards their destiny and God-given assignment.
The prophetic mantle, anointing, gift, and grace has under-girded his impact and influence on many whom he has personally trained in his Permanent School Of the Prophets which Began in 1991. Now many of his sons are running national Schools Of the Prophets in their own nations.
In 1991, the ISAAC alliance was then called ANPCM (Apostolic Network of Prophetic Churches and Ministries). God was already updating and upgrading him to the next level and spiritual stature. The apostolic call, mission, and mandate became evident as the glocal church, All Nations Sanctuary, and many other churches came under his apostolic oversight and care. This paved the way for apostolic thrust into the nations.
His popular book, Apostolic Strategies Affecting Nations, became the voice of his apostolic grace and mantle. It brought clarity to many building apostolic ministries. Senior pastors went to the next level as they used those strategies to move their ministries and churches to the next level.
His apostolic-prophetic books are being used by scores of bible schools around the world. Hundreds of pastors now use his materials and revealed blueprints to rebuild their lives, churches, and their cities.
According to his own testimony, “I crossed the Muar River from Malacca with only a plastic bag of clothes on a motorcycle in December of 1979. Now, see what the Lord has done in our town and in the nations of the world.”
Born from a staunch Hindu Background, Dr. Jonathan David grew up knowing a deep spiritual hunger for God. His Parental grandfather was a musician in the Hindu temple and his maternal grandfather was particularly involved in the Hindu funeral rites. The young Jonathan David used to serve them both during his school holidays in his primary school years. In his own words, “I served the living and the dead.”
He became born again at the age of 13 in a Brethren Church on Good Friday in 1972. He became water-baptized the same year on December the 16th. An intense persecution arose when it became known that he became a Christian. This made it impossible for him to go to church or even read the bible. The bibles he had were confiscated by his father and most times torn and once burnt. When his father learned how expensive bibles were, he traded it for a reduction in tuition fees for young Jonathan with the tuition teacher.
Dr. Jonathan David was baptized in the Holy Spirit on 19th August 1976 and began to walk supernaturally into the prophetic dimension. In the years of persecution that followed his conversion, the Lord opened up a meaningful consciousness of His presence that allowed young Jonathan to find comfort and strength in His Presence.
In his own words, “These times of intense persecution by my father, my relatives, and community shaped my life and formed my character. It made me determined to follow Jesus to the end. I discovered God as my Father and this revelation changed me forever.”
At the age of 19 (1978) he was already involved in four different outreaches each week and by age 20 he was in full-time ministry pioneering the church in Muar, Johor, Malaysia. In the course of 41 years as a Christian and 33 years as a minister, Dr. Jonathan David saw both his parents saved and even his mother baptized in the Holy Spirit. He was at both his parents’ bedsides when they went home to be with the Lord.
The spiritual zeal of Dr. Jonathan David has been unwavering over those years and only continues to get stronger as he reaches the nations. His message of clarity and his undying passion for Jesus and the souls of men become cutting edge tolls to serve and reach his generation.
He believes God has given him a mandate to disciple each nation; Impacting the Cities and Influencing the Nations. Like the patriarch Abraham, he has many sons-in-the-faith in many nations across the world. God has given him a unique place of stature to raise the next generation for succession of the prophetic and apostolic grace and ministry that he carries.
The anointing to reproduce men who can carry what he carries and represent him fully in their nation has become a unique feature of his ministry. His sons form an Alliance called ISAAC (International Strategic Alliance of Apostolic Churches) and are spread across over 40 nations of the world. They rightly call him “Papa Jonathan”. In his own words, “Now I know what it means to be a father of many nations as my sons are from so many ethnicities, colors, and cultures. This is my reward and my honor which no man can take away. This honor the Father himself has given to me so that I can represent Him fully to all my sons and daughters in the faith.”
His darling wife, affectionately known as “Mum Helen”, is a suitable helpmeet and fellow minister. She is herself an outstanding minister in her own right having pioneered seven outreaches before she married Dr. Jonathan David. She became a pillar of strength and a constant source of wisdom and discernment. Dr. Jonathan David says, “I received the dimension of 7 churches when I married her. Almost felt like John in Revelation.”
Together they travel the nations as a formidable apostolic team, reaching and discipling the nations of the world.
Dr. Jonathan David is the Founder and Senior Pastor of All Nations Sanctuary (formerly Full Gospel Centre) Muar, a governing kingdom church in Muar, Johor, Malaysia.
He is also the Presiding Apostle of the International Strategic Alliance of Apostolic Churches (ISAAC), a network of governing churches and ministers across the nations.

I understand the frustrations you have felt because I have felt the same way at times. However, I have found the answer for getting total victory over these feelings. We must have daily encounters with the Lord. We were created for this purpose, to know Him and to have fellowship with Him. Apart from Him we have no life and our priorities get misplaced. Here is a link to an article I wrote telling how to encounter God and get filled with His spirit, actually drunk in His spirit: https://z3news.com/w/bible-studies/how-to-get-drunk-in-the-spirit/
As you set yourself to seek Him, you can never be defeated as long as you don’t give up! God bless you!
