The one thing Jesus warned about, possibly more than anything else, was deception. The enemy of our souls is known as the master deceiver. With the discernment given to us through the Holy Spirit residing within us, not only can we avoid being deceived ourselves, but we can confront deception that is keeping the lost around us from seeing the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….7/3/2025….”Being Faithful”
Many of the readers and supporters of the Mideast Updates are aware of the tremendous harvest of souls the Lord has brought into the Kingdom of God through the faithful ministry of the House of Blessing missionaries. The reports coming in from the varied locations around the mideast continue to amaze me. There is probably not one of us that […]
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….6/2/2025….”In This World You Will Have Trouble…”
Jesus did not hide the fact from the disciples that they would have trouble in the world because of their belief in Him. We find one of these warnings in John 15: 18 “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love its […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….5/30/2025….Power of the Gospel
We find these words in Acts 5: 14 And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women,15 so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them.16 Also a multitude gathered from the […]
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 […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….5/12/2025….”All Creation Groans”
One passage in the Bible which has more meaning to me every passing day is found in Romans, the eighth chapter: 18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. 19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….5/6/2025….”A Table in the Presence of the Enemy”
I apologize this update is coming out at the last minute and without proper editing. Some of you may be aware that there some severe attacks in the last couple days on the House of Blessing. I don’t have all the details yet but two groups of teachers and their students were severely attacked. A few of those who pray […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….5/1/2025….”Water From A Dead Well”
Those who have read the Mideast Updates for any length of time are well aware that God will quite often intervene in supernatural ways. We serve a God who has no limits. He is not like us! Many people are confused by the fact that the Bible teaches us that God is one God and there is none other like […]
