MIDEAST UPDATE, 12/21/2014

Hardly a week goes by in which there is not a new story to tell in the lives of House of Blessing missionaries. For over 32 months, there have been stories of the many who have found their Messiah Jesus as Savior. At the same time, there are the difficult stories of the losses and the heartache that comes with […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 11/11/2014

This last week has been very eventful. I received a report from Syria with photos taken in Northern Syria near the border with Turkey. Mofidah, and her group of widows in Syria, who have had so many astounding experiences in the past few months, was able to get to Pastor R****’s location and visit with him in person. She brought […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 11/4/2014

For this update, I suggest that the reader take time and read through the Book of the Acts of the Apostles. What we read there is just the beginning. In these last moments of time before the Great Day of the Lord, we are being gifted with some of the most tremendous stories of all time. In the history of […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 10/29/2014

After not having heard from House of Blessing for about ten days or so, it was good to receive an update once again. After hearing of the unusual visitor Pastor R**** had had last time, I could not help but wonder how things were. One of the things that seems to be a constant in the last weeks is the […]

GOD’S MYSTERY, The Church Part 1 “The Loveless Church”

As most of us know, today we find ourselves at a time in history like none other. I have said this in other articles and have applied it to numerous aspects of our lives. Today I would like to apply it to the Church. What is the “Church”? Who is the “Church”? What is the function of the “Church”? The […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 10/12/2014

A common statement I hear more and more today is how near we are to the return of Jesus Christ, the Messiah. It is not just hype thrown out to get people excited or spiritually jazzed, but rather as an encouragement to get our houses in order as well as finishing the race well. The imminent return of Jesus is […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 9/29/2014

I have had several direct calls from the Middle East in the last week, each one more awe-inspiring than the one before it. I am afraid it is way too easy for those of us living in the West where life still has some semblance of normalcy, to see the rest of the world as something off of this planet. […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 9/23/2014

As I was contemplating the different things to include in today’s update, I reread Revelation 6, paying special attention to the fifth seal which is found in verses 9-11. It reads like this: When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 8/28/2014

“The Fire of GOD” It seems, the more difficult or impossible the circumstances, the more God shows Himself strong on behalf of those that love Him and commit to His ways. The Bible speaks of great exploits that will be done by the followers of Christ. Some of the accounts of miracles I am receiving are stories I could not […]

MIDEAST UPDATE, 8/14/2014

“Greater Love Hath No Man” There are stories and then there are stories.  Some are forgotten not long after they are read. Then there are the stories you find yourself going over again and again in your mind. So many times in the last two years I have tried to imagine myself in some of the stories that have been […]
