I want to thank each and everyone that prayed for Pastor R and his surgery yesterday. I received a quick note to let me know all went well and he is recovering. Let’s continue to cover him in prayer. This was his second surgery to remove cancerous growths in the area of his stomach. Let’s pray that he does not […]
Special HOB Update…7/30/2021…Pastor R
July 30, 2021 Shalom Everyone: Pastor R is going to need another surgery, much like the last one he had. The doctors have said that there is more cancerous growth in the area of his stomach that needs to be removed. He has been given instructions to fast until surgery time tomorrow. It is expected that his surgery will take […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…7/22/2021…”The Power of Humility”
As an introduction to today’s update, I would like to refer to an Old Testament story that I believe is particularly applicable to the latest news from Pastor R and the House of Blessing. The Old Testament has recorded within its pages the records of the kings of both Israel and Judah. The majority of the kings ended their reigns […]
“BEING A NONCONFORMIST”
Most of the world has heard of the renowned American Christian evangelist, Billy Graham. He passed away a little over three years ago, on February 21, 2018, at the age of 99, and is now with his Lord. Rev. Graham had originally written the article below in 2005 but was reproduced by the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and made available […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…7/8/2021…”Believing and Suffering for His Sake”
Philippians 1:27-30 Only let your conduct be worthy of the gospel of Christ, so that whether I come and see you or am absent, I may hear of your affairs, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel, and not in anyu way terrified by your adversaries, which is to […]
MIDDLE EAST UPDATE…7/2/2021…Hezbollah Militants to Christian Soldiers
For the nine+ years I’ve written the Mideast Updates for the House of Blessing, more often than not have I had to include both painful things to share as well as the good. Today, I will start with what is painful and then finish the update with the good. I will first share a scripture that I have included in […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…6/25/2021…”It Is Not God’s Will For Any To Perish.”
In my last call from Pastor R, he shared a couple of miraculous stories with me to pass on. But, before I do, I would like to refer to a Scripture found in 2 Peter: The Lord is not slack concerning His promises, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that […]
The Reality of the Rapture … Part 2 of 2 … 6/19/2021
Continued from Part One… It was not only the Apostle Paul who warned against mocking. We find the Apostle Peter spoke about it as well. 1 Beloved, I now write to you this second epistle (in both of which I stir up your pure minds by way of reminder), 2 that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by […]
The Reality of the Rapture … Part 1 of 2 … 6/18/2021
This is a reprint of an article I wrote nearly two years ago, but the warning bells for this sudden supernatural event have never been as loud and clear as they are today! Part one and two of this fascinating study will run back to back. May they encourage you as they do me! Jake Geier ******************* The “Rapture” […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…6/15/2021…”Another Muhammad submits to Jesus, the Messiah!”
I was very glad to hear from Pastor R a couple days ago. Many have asked about his status. It appears that the results of his surgery are so far proving to be positive. He is however still in the hospital as the hospital staff is tending to his many other wounds received when he, Youssef and Rahdi were initially […]
