This will once again be a rather short update but I received a call from Pastor R and he asked me to let you know the latest, now that the Muslim month of Ramadan has begun. Just before doing so, I would like to share a passage of Scripture found in the Book of Acts: 22 “…we want to hear […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….3/31/2022…”Redeeming The Time”
“…redeeming the time, because the days are evil” Ephesians 5:16 As this update is posted on line, it is only a matter of hours until the Muslim month of Ramadan begins. The House of Blessing has been planning, preparing, and praying now for weeks in preparation for 30 days of intensive evangelism. The question is asked every year, could this […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….5/31/2021….”NOTHING can separate us from the Love of GOD”
One of my favorite passages in the Bible is found in Romans 8. Below are three of these verses: For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us…and we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…4/24/2021…”Teach Us Your Ways, O GOD!”
Just a real quick update as we have come to the end of another week. I received a call from Pastor R earlier in the week with a little bit of information to add to the previous update. A story which began with a man named Suleiman and his four grown sons is continuing. You’ll remember that HOB brothers Mahmoud […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….3/18/2021….”Just As I Am”
In the last update, I told the story of five men; a father named Suleiman, and his four grown sons, Majd, Mustafa, Refaat, and Aref. These five men had been raised Muslim but eventually became Islamic State (Daesh) militants. When in God’s providence their paths crossed with House of Blessing’s missionaries, Omar, Sami, and Mussa, they found that Jesus Christ […]

No matter what news source one looks at, everyone today is talking about the coronavirus (officially named COVID-19) which has now been designated a worldwide pandemic by the World Health Organization.

MIDEAST UPDATE….10/2/2019….We’re Getting So Close!
A passage of Scripture came to me this morning as I was checking the news stories from around the world. It is found in John 16:33 and reads like this: “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation but be of good cheer, I have overcome the […]

“THE LIFTED VEIL” (reprint from ‘UNSEALED’ website)…author Gary
Recently I ran into an article on the website “UNSEALED” (which I highly recommend) that I have read several times. It spoke powerfully to my own heart and it spoke to the times we are living in with such clarity, I shared it with my own home fellowship. I also sent out to my mailing list. The article is a […]
AUTHOR and FINISHER…MESSIAH….Part Thirteen
A thread which begins in Genesis and carries through the entire Bible has to do with God’s intervention on behalf of the fallen human race through the blood sacrifice of the Messiah. The story line which begins in the very first chapter of the Holy Scriptures is continued to its completion in the very last chapter of the last book […]
