Michael Guglielmucci told worshippers, friends and his own family that he was likely to die from the disease.

He claimed his hit song "Healer", which was included on mega-church Hillsong's latest album, came to him as a "gift from God" on the day the diagnosis was revealed.

It propelled Mr Guglielmucci, formerly a pastor with Melbourne-based church Planetshakers, to the forefront of Australia's Christian youth movement.

But the story was completely made up.

A statement from Australian Christian Churches vice president Alun Davies said Mr Guglielmucci, now living in Adelaide, had admitted to fabricating his cancer story.

"Representatives of the National Executive for the Australian Christian Churches recently met with Michael Guglielmucci," Mr Davies said.

"At this meeting, he read a statement indicating that his claim to have cancer was untrue.

"His credential with the Australian Christian Churches was immediately suspended."

An abundance of material documenting Mr Guglielmucci's falsified illness is available on the internet.

READ IT AND SEE YOU HAVE BEEN DECIEVED AND LIED TO...

I think you should play this video before we sing this song on August 14th.

My church has been on this song since Planetshakers recorded it. Please YouTube their version.

This song has reminded me that the divorce court judge does not have the last say. God has the last say. And no matter how late in the game - God can heal. Even after man says, "it's over."

Like others I was moved to tears when I heard this for the 1st time 30 minutes ago and just played it again for my wife & it happened again. It has been an emotional time as of late for a lot of different reasons and the words and power of the song have my brain working overtime at the greatness of our God. Thanks for the post Los and can't wait to sing this at BC.

Mike's originally from Adelaide, Australia (my home town!) and has the most incredible testimony... i remember him preaching at my old church before I moved here to the US and breaking bones midsermon because his bones have become so brittle, yet still declaring God's greatness throughout his pain.

wonderful song, wonderful man.

Lost thank you for posting this. I sent this on to a good friend of mine. His wife has just been diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma - which is the most progressive kind. This is such an amazing song with an amazing message.

This is one of my favorite songs. I was at National Youth Convention(A/G) last year in Indianapolis & Planetshakers led us in worship. They rocked this song - it was amazing. I cry every time we sing it. Nothing is impossible for You - you hold my world in your hands. wow.

I heard this song for the first time in 2007 when the planetshakers played it in Indy. They originally had the song on CD.

People don't sing this song. It's so much more than that. This song electrifies any audience it encounters. You don't just sing, you don't just raise your hands, you don't just cry; you touch God with this song.
It doesn't just touch you.

My church (www.healingplacechurch.org) just put out a CD called Epic Worship that I am all over right now. If you are not scared, email me your mailing address and I will send you one. ; )
I think my favorite track is called I Love but, like I said, I am all over this thing!

So, I do not post here much because a million other people do but you often talk about leading worship and do a lot of videos and I would really love to hear you sing. I love to sing and have enough talent to lead worship in children's church but I aint no Amy Winehouse so that is as far as it goes for me. Music moves me to my core though and I so enjoy hearing the talents God has given to others so, will you sing for us?

This may or may not help but neither of my tats made it into the final 13 over on SCL and I think hearing you sing may help me feelings not be hurt. ; )
Grace & Peace, daphne

"I believe You're MORE then enough for me" - that line hits me every time. I reduce Him to the size of my problems...or even to just enough but God is more then enough. 2 Weeks ago we used this song as a back drop to an old school invitation and literally hundreds came forward and proclaimed their need for healing both spiritually and physically. Unreal.

Hey Los, I lurk here from time to time. I'm sitting at work and catching up on stuff, pop on your blog and see the post, figure I'll listen while I'm working, never heard the song, I've heard of Hillsong, don't know anything about them beyond that alot of people LOVE them, basically ignoring it while I work, glance up to see a closeup of Mike singing and instantly see the Spirit in a youtube video. Amazing, I've got tears by the end of it and want to raise my hands (and I'm that guy who never does that). Pure worship, Pure Spirit...and I got it from a video...My God is powerful!

I'd hate to take away from the seriousness of this post, but I would like to make a request: Take a listen to the Planetshakers version. Musically and vocally it is definitely superior than the Hillsong version (even as a Hillsong fan).
Please don't get me wrong, I don't want to make light seeing Mike sing his heart out.

Los - what recording of this song are you listening to? I can't find the mp3 anywhere...

Dude... my band played at the Hillsong Conference this year and we got to meet Mike. He really is an amazing guy. When he sang the song in the final service it felt like the roof was going to blow off the building. The presence of God was so strong, my brother had to leave his seat and just start jumping when they got to the bridge. The song has ministered to me so much as I've been having some health problems the past week or so. God knows what we need to hear. -jack

That our God will not be defined by our words, desires and wishes.

He is an awesome God. That we are here to glorify His holy name. That we will praise Him for He is worthy to be praise.

From nothing is too hard for Me to nothing is impossible for Me, God is the same yesterday, today and forever.

Whom have I in heaven but Him?

Whom can I desire on earth besides Him?

A million times over, I will fail and fail and fail some more.

All that doesn't matter.

God is the strength of my heart.

God is my portion forever.

I love You, Lord, with all that I have.

Amazing. Thank you. I've listened about four times already this morning.

Can I ask where people are getting it for play upon their media devices?
