I would like to begin today’s update with a passage of Scripture from Acts 4. 29 “Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, 30 by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus”, […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….8/13/2022….”Who Holds Your Tomorrow?”
There isn’t one of us who has knowledge of what our tomorrow will bring—unless of course, God gives us special knowledge. As believers, we are thankful at the end of every day for another day that has passed and we are now one day closer to Jesus’ return for His own. A personal practice of mine is to thank the […]
SPECIAL MIDEAST UPDATE…7/12/2022
This morning’s update is a very short one to let readers know of a couple new developments on the front lines with the House of Blessing missionaries. As you know, the emphasis on evangelism during the observance of the Muslim Eid al-Adha was very successful this year again. The miracle of the blind man being being opened before the eyes of […]
THE ‘PREEMINENCE’ of JESUS CHRIST…..Colossians 1:12-23
Who is Jesus Christ? Why is it that after 2,000 years of history having passed, He is still the central figure of all history? Was He merely a prophet as some claim? Was He just a historical influential philosopher, one of many? Or was He one among the many religious leaders we find listed in our history books? Was He […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…7/3/2022….”How Amazing is our GOD!”
Considering the size of the series of miracles in the last few weeks, including today’s addition, this update will be rather short. The reason for the brevity of today’s update is because the Muslim, Eid al-Adha, a time of special evangelism by the House of Blessing missionaries is only days away and I’d like you to know what has happened […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…6/27/2022…”Keep Looking Up!!”
In the previous update, I made mention of the fact that one of Islam’s most important feast days is coming up early in the month of July. The yearly Hajj begins July 7 and continues through July 12. The Eid al-Adha feast is celebrated in the last three days, ending on the 12th. I explained the significance of the feast […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….4/12/2022….”Intense in Tents!”
In Luke 10, we find these words: 1 After these things the Lord appointed seventy others also, and sent them two by two before His face into every city and place where He Himself was about to go. 2 Then He said to them, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few; therefore pray the Lord of the […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….4/5/2022….Multitudes of Gentiles Being Brought into God’s Kingdom!
This will once again be a rather short update but I received a call from Pastor R and he asked me to let you know the latest, now that the Muslim month of Ramadan has begun. Just before doing so, I would like to share a passage of Scripture found in the Book of Acts: 22 “…we want to hear […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….3/31/2022…”Redeeming The Time”
“…redeeming the time, because the days are evil” Ephesians 5:16 As this update is posted on line, it is only a matter of hours until the Muslim month of Ramadan begins. The House of Blessing has been planning, preparing, and praying now for weeks in preparation for 30 days of intensive evangelism. The question is asked every year, could this […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….5/31/2021….”NOTHING can separate us from the Love of GOD”
One of my favorite passages in the Bible is found in Romans 8. Below are three of these verses: 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…and we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to […]
