Words written by the Apostle Paul have come to mind often lately, words found in Ephesians 5. This is how it reads in the Living Bible: 14 This is what God says in the Scriptures: “Awake O sleeper, and rise up from the dead; and Christ shall give you light. 15 16 So be careful how you act; these are […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….8/12/2025….”Holding Fast”
In the book of Titus we find this exhortation: 7 In all things showing yourself to be a pattern of good works; in doctrine showing integrity, reverence, incorruptibility, 8 sound speech that cannot be condemned, that one who is an opponent may be ashamed, having nothing evil to say of you. Titus 2:7-8 We know the Scriptures teach us to […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….Quick Note….7/18/2025
Greetings Everyone: Because I have been out of town a few days, I have not been able to keep you all informed with the latest concerning the House of Blessing and its work. Just in short, as has been reported in my previous update, there have been some vicious attacks several areas, particularly in the As-Suwayda region. There have been […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….7/14/2025….”The Works That I Do, You Will Do Also…”
Miracles are something not often seen in the Western church. This, however, as stated in previous Mideast Updates, is not the case in these last moments of the Age of Grace in third world countries. The Mideast is only one such location. This is what Jesus had to say about miracles: 10 “Do you not believe that I am in […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….6/25/2025….”Jesus Is Coming Soon and VERY SOON!”
Throughout Church history, there have been seasons during which the Spirit of God moved in spectacular waves. During those times, there were great harvests of souls. The first one, of course, was at Pentecost. Although it is not seen as much in the West–at least not since the great Jesus Revolution in the late 70’s to late 80’s–there are great […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….6/19/2025….”Accelerating Harvest”
For today’s update I am transcribing a report forwarded to me by Sister Rolla directly from Syria. It is a brief rundown on some of the areas of ministry by the House of Blessing within the nation. This is not an exhaustive summary of all HOB ministries within Syria but it will give you at least a brief idea […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….6/16/2025….”God Can Speak Anywhere…Even At The Hajj!”
Sometimes we think the best place for a person to find Jesus as their Savior is in a church service. Yet, the New Testament presents us with many examples of Jesus meeting people at whatever station or situation they might be in. He was often criticized for this. An example of this is found in Mark 2: 15 Now it […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….6/10/2025….”God’s Two-Fold Agenda”
Most of us are familiar with the story of Jesus reading from Isaiah’s scroll while in the synagogue in Nazareth. Luke records it this way: 16“He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. And he stood up to read. 17The scroll of the prophet […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…5/20/2025….”They Realized They Had Been With Jesus”
It is hard to argue with cold hard facts. More and more we are seeing how our Heavenly Father is intervening in some of the most intense situations in order to reach deep into the hearts of the spiritually blind. Today’s episodes will once again show the love of God for the lost. 13 Now when they saw the boldness […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….5/16/2025….”The Power of the Word of GOD”
Anyone who has read the Mideast Updates in the past weeks will realize that the powerful work of the Holy Spirit working through God’s people has escalated. We may not see much of it in the West, but it is definitely happening in third world nations. God is not willing that any perish and He will use anyone willing to […]
