It seems every year goes by a bit faster than the one before. I am having a hard time getting my head around the fact that we are only days from the end of 2022. Amazing! But, here we are. One thing that gives us great hope is the fact that the Lord has brought us that much closer to […]
“FOR UNTO US A CHILD IS BORN”
“To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins.” Acts 10:43 The true story of why we celebrate Christmas has to do with the coming of the only-begotten Son of God into the world by taking on a human body in order to redeem the fallen human race. We call […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…12/1/2022…The Harvest Fields are Ripe!”
Today’s Mideast Update will be a short one but Pastor R has asked special prayer for the HOB missionaries, particularly in the northern areas up against the Turkish border. Many of you may not be aware but Turkey’s President Erdogan has indicated his intent to begin the ground phase of Operation Claw-Sword. He wants to clear the southern borders of […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…11/3/2022…”And These Signs Will Follow Those That Believe…”
As I begin today’s Update, I would like to draw your attention to a passage in Isaiah: 60 Arise, My people! Let your light shine for all the nations to see! For the glory of the Lord is streaming from you. 61 Darkness as black as night shall cover all the peoples of the earth, but the glory of the […]
“The Catching Away” in Zephaniah’s Prophecy?
Zephaniah’s Pre-Tribulation Rapture I recently came across an excellent article which happens to be in line with some of my own studies in the Old Testament Book of Zephaniah. It was written by an author by the name of Corey (last name unknown to me) and is found on a website called “End Times: Darkness Descending”. I decided to share […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…10/27/2022…”Through the Wilderness to the Promised Land”
Just before the actual Update for this week, I’d like to share a few thoughts in introduction: All one needs to do to realize our world is facing a convergence of multiple crises like never before in man’s history is to open our eyes. Many in the West would rather close their eyes to what’s happening all over the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….10/3/2022….”A Priceless Treasure”
I have had the opportunity to speak with Pastor R several times in the last few days. He told me about a new challenge being faced in Syria; cholera. To be clear, cholera has been faced before in the Mideast, and the House of Blessing missionaries have had to deal with its effects before. This however is the first time […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…9/29/2022…” And They Loved Not Their Lives Unto The Death”
I have been on a trip for a few days and although it will be a rather short update, it will be my attempt to catch up, at least a little bit. In light of the world news in the last couple days, with the war rhetoric becoming increasingly ominous, many are wondering how long until something really serious begins […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…9/18/2022…”God’s Love in Action”
Even though there was only one Apostle Paul, variations of his salvation story can be told by countless believers and followers of Jesus today, who at one time had declared themselves His enemies. A small portion of Paul’s lengthy testimony before King Agrippa of His encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus reads this way: 13 “…at midday, O […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…9/1/2022…”When You See These Things Beginning, LOOK UP!”
Notice these words Jesus said to His disciples, including all of us who are His followers today: “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Matthew 16:33 There is a growing number of people everywhere realizing that […]
