URGENT PRAYER NEED…MIDEAST UPDATE 12/30/2017

“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Hebrews 4:16 I received an urgent email from Jerusalem this morning and a few minutes later received a phone call from Pastor R in southern Syria. The email from Jerusalem contained some photos showing the reasons […]

MIDEAST UPDATE 12/24/2017

As I write what is likely to be the last Mideast Update of 2017, I can’t help but think of how God is fulfilling the promises of His Word. In Acts 2:17 we see a repeat of what the prophet Joel was told in the Old Testament concerning the last days: “And it shall come to pass in the last […]

In light of the fact that readers have often expressed interest in how Bible prophecy ties in with current events today, and especially how it affects the work of the House of Blessing missionaries, I will interject some thoughts along that line with this update of HOB recent activities.

MIDEAST UPDATE 11/28/2017

As I was looking over notes that I had taken from my phone call with Pastor R this week, my mind went to stories that many of us have read in the Book of Acts. Stories of the seedling Church on the Day of Pentecost which grew into a force that has not been stopped for 2,000 years. In those […]

MIDEAST UPDATE 11/16/2017

As I was watching the news a couple days ago, reports came in about three large earthquakes; one in Japan, another in Costa Rica, and a third located on the Iraq / Iran border.

MIDEAST UPDATE 10/19/2017…The Amazing Grace of GOD!

MIDEAST UPDATE 10/10/2017

As I write this update, I am told that many thousands are gathering all across the Middle East for the sole purpose of studying the Word of God and to ask the Holy Spirit to make it especially real for this time and hour. There are many Scriptures that are applicable to what they are doing and one of these […]

MIDEAST UPDATE 10/2/2017

As I write today’s update, I am once again reminded of the sovereignty of God. We as humans struggle, stress, and agonize, often about things over which we have no control, yet as true followers of Yeshua / Jesus we have direct access to the One who does. It is our sovereign Lord we must trust in all things and […]

MIDEAST UPDATE 9/22/2017

As I sit here at my laptop and begin this update, I think about today’s date and all that is happening in the world and I am astounded that I am witnessing all that I am seeing coming to pass. A couple days ago while my wife, Anne, was spending time alone with the Lord, she wrote down some of […]
