We share here another story from the harvest fields in the Middle East. We believe that Father has a purpose in our hearing how some of our brothers and sisters in the Lord experience His love and His presence. Perhaps we will have a deeper grasp of that love and presence. Perhaps we will come to see how we too […]
“Sarah’s Sequel” MIDEAST UPDATE, 6/8/2016
When we heard Sarah’s story of seeing God’s glory and seeing her children alive and happy in His presence, we could only imagine the impact that had on her and those around her. To see into the heavenly realm is not easily described or even imagined, but to also see your loved ones in His Presence, is beyond our ability […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 6/1/2016
For those who might read this blog regularly, it might seem that there is no end to the stories from the Middle East of war, killing, never-ending carnage, and seemingly a never-ending list of missionaries who have been martyred for their faith in Jesus Christ. I would have to agree to a point. I have enough real life stories within […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 5/25/2016
I have made reference more than once to the warnings Jesus left us concerning what would unfold in the period of time just prior to His return, but in light of the desperate situations in the Middle East, I would like to do so again. In Matthew 24:3-14, we have these words: Now as He sat on the Mount of […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 5/10/2016
As I write this update, both the chaos of war as well as the supernatural intervention in the lives of people continues. The struggle for control of Syria’s largest city, Aleppo, continues with Syria’s dictator Assad sending the Syrian military in full force, indiscriminately killing militants and civilians alike. Hospitals, clinics, and even refugee camps have been hit, leaving many […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 5/2/2016
I have always thought that one of the fascinating privileges we will have as we begin an unending eternity in the presence of our glorious LORD and God, will be access to the millions upon millions of individual stories, recorded with intricate, accurate detail, of the lives of God’s faithful people as they navigated life on this fallen planet. I […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 4/5/2016
At the beginning of today’s Mideast Update, I would like to include the 23rd Psalm and some brief observations. It reads like this in the New King James version of the Scriptures: The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 2/26/2016
My update today will be shorter than usual. I do have some new information that I feel is important to get out. As regular readers already know, there has been a huge harvest of new believers all over the Mideast, but especially in and around the Fallujah area. Thousands of people have made Jesus Christ their Lord and Master, especially […]
MIDEAST UPDATE, 2/13/2016
In the last few days, I’ve received several calls from Pastor R from his location near Damascus. As always, there is good news as well as news of tragic events that have transpired. There is now not a day that goes by in the Middle East without a multitude of events unfolding. We are the generation Jesus spoke of that […]
MIDEAST UPDATE: 1/19/2016
Watching the news further confirming a call from Syria in the wee hours of the morning, it is obvious that circumstances continue to deteriorate in the Middle East. Many of you may have heard of the horrors happening in the Syrian city of “Deior-ez-Zor” (one of several spellings). It is located in the northeastern portion of Syria and was brutally […]
