These past few days have been quite eventful in the lives of the House of Blessing missionaries. It was planned last week for groups of HOB leaders to go to a number of strategically selected mosques this past Friday. As you know, Fridays are the day that Muslims gather at their mosques for a sermon and prayer. Al-Hidmi, Azmi, Hab […]

It was planned for a number of teams of House of Blessing leaders to take part in Friday prayers in several strategically picked mosques this Friday (yesterday). […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…4/1/2025…”Father Forgive Them, They Know Not What They Do”
Most readers have likely read the account of brother Abdelrahem’s heart attack and death experience. There were a series of reports that had come in just before Abdelrahem’s emergency, but they were temporarily set aside. I hope to share the basics of these reports in this update. One of the effects of the large number of Muslim people who have […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…3/28/2025…”The Sovereignty of God”
Most readers are aware that I will send out a request for special prayer on occasion. I sent out a request two days ago for brother Abdelrahem. I had received a message that he had had a serious heart attack. I was told that after the attack he was loaded into a vehicle with his son Ibrahim, Abdelrahem’s doctor, and […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…3/20/2025….”What New Doctrine is This?”
In my private devotions, I began reading the Book of Mark again this morning. In chapter 1:21-28 we find the account of Jesus setting a man in the synagogue free of an unclean spirit. Those gathered were apparently used to seeing people plagued with demon spirits, but they had never seen someone freed. The first comment made after Jesus’ teaching […]
MIDEAST UPDATE….3/15/2025….”And God’s Grace Was Upon Them”
One of the promises God has made to His people is that He would never leave them nor forsake them. He also promised that all things would work together for good to those who are called to His purposes. This means that even the evil that the devil intends, is taken by our Lord and turned into His good purposes. […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…3/10/2025….”Jihad Unhinged”
In light of the explosive events in Syria in the last few days, I am going to take a detour from what I had intended to write. I have fresh details to share about the success HOB missionaries are having in many places across the Mideast, but right now the tragic events, centered mostly in and around the northwest corner […]
URGENT REQUEST FOR PRAYER….3/8/2025
Due to tragic events which have unfolded in the past three days, I am sending out a short urgent request for prayer. As you know, there have been a number of Mideast Updates in the past month. There has also been a considerable amount of new information since the last update on March 5, 2025. As many are aware, there […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…3/5/2025…”Filled With Wonder and Amazement”
The last month has proven to have a flurry of activity for the House of Blessing as they have prepared to minister during Ramadan. This might explain the increased number of Updates lately. Hopefully, this provides you, the reader and supporter of the House of Blessing, at least a glimpse into the things God is doing through the HOB missionaries. […]
MIDEAST UPDATE…2/26/2025….”And He Looked Up Toward Heaven…” Part Three
In Matthew 16:18, Jesus made this comment: “On this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it.” That statement was made 2,000 years ago and it has proven true throughout the centuries. Not only that, but it will continue to be true until the very end of the age. The Church started […]
