The House of Blessing missionaries are experiencing some things that you and I would love to witness in person. I have commented before that what is happening on the ground there is just like what we read about in the book of Acts. I pray that the Lord will take this update and make it as real to the heart […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 5/31/2017
I have been out of my office for a few days but want to pass on the most recent information that I have received in my last two conversations with Pastor R. The Islamic month of Ramadan is in full swing and the House of Blessing missionaries are strategically located around the Middle East. Just in the first few days […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 5/22/2017
It is a bit longer than normal since the last update was made available but it is because Pastor R has been in areas that do not all have phone reception. He has been traveling from village to village to teach, encourage, and pray for the many hundreds that he is visiting. He had to make a point of having […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 5/8/2017
As the days wind down toward the end of May when the Muslim month of Ramadan begins, House of Blessing is praying about how to make the most of the yearly opportunity. One reason that it has been so successful over the last few years is because, as the Muslim people begin to fast and pray during this yearly event, […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 4/30/2017
Many people in today’s world, even those that may not claim to be religious, are beginning to recognize that we are living in a time like none before. I have often referred to the warnings Jesus gave to the disciples in Matthew 24 and Luke 21. These passages go into considerable detail about what to expect in the days in […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 4/22/2017
Five years ago when I began writing the Mideast Update (originally called Jerusalem Updates), I would never have believed that I would still have the privilege of writing these updates today. Here we are, already one third of the way through the year 2017. Quite often I find myself looking back, remembering so many stories of the miracles, the sovereign […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 4/12/2017
It is amazing how quickly changes are happening all across the globe today. The epicenter of the entire earth however will continue to be in the Middle East until our Lord, the KING of Kings, comes to take control for His promised 1,000 year millennial reign. The fallen Lucifer knows the Bible and is well aware that the Jewish people […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 4/1/2017
Many times in these updates I have mentioned how great a miracle it is for every single soul that is reached with the Gospel news pronouncing that man can have the assurance of forgiveness and the promise of an eternity in God’s heaven. Those of us that have grown up raised in a church where this was taught, may take […]
MIDEAST UPDATE 3/21/2017
In the last few days we had requests for special prayer for Pastor R, founder of the House of Blessing. I have received a short phone call with some new information to share. As most regular readers already know, Pastor R had an emergency procedure due to a heart attack he had suffered. I don’t know details though it sounds […]
UPDATE ON PASTOR R
There has not been much new news about Pastor R, but he did come through the surgery well, and as of last night was resting well. Recuperation will of course take some time. As of yet, I don’t know details of the emergency surgery that he had to have. As soon as I have any news at all, I will […]
