CIRCULAR December 1989
All over the earth the Lord performs great things. Especially in the 3rd-World-Countries people come by the thousands to hear the Word and have their experience of salvation with the living God. I shall never forget the 9th of July 1989. When I arrived at the compound of the Hall of the people in Kinshasa, Zaire, I saw a multitude outside thinking the doors had not been opened yet. Quickly I came to know that the Hall with 3,500 people was already filled. Thousands heard the message through the loudspeakers outside.
Thanks be to the Lord that we have His revealed Word as the fresh food, the spiritual manna, to feed God's people with. The harvest is ripe and must be brought in quickly. Many new doors are opening up in various denominations. Much could be reported what happens throughout the world. At this time we are expecting a spiritual awakening right here in central Europe. Those nations which were deprive of hearing the gospel freely are now hungry for the Word of God. We have already sent several loads with bibles and New Testaments from West Germany directly to Russia. Now it is even possible to have open-air meetings in the so-called Eastern-Block-Countries. The same God of heaven who made the iron curtain to fall, the same God will let the purple and bambus curtains fall as well. The calling-out time is upon us and only those who are truly called out by the Lord can be used to give the same call to others.
With great confidence we are moving into the year 1990. Only few would have thought that time would be with us for so long, because we are counting with the return of the Lord. Also in this regard the Scripture gives us the proper teaching: "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance" (2Pt 3:9). The Scripture must be fulfilled in every way: with Israel, the church and the nations. The political and religious developments are moving into the last phase, also the bride church is getting ready for the final work. The promises are clear, and as Brother Branham expected there will be a short and mighty work right before the coming of the Lord. I also wish to express my deep gratitude to the Lord God who brought this ministry into existence and has looked after us in a most marvelous way. Please remember me in your daily prayers and also all the brethren who do their part of ministry as faithful co-workers in the different countries and languages. A special "thank you" goes to our dear Brother Alexis Barilier who is responsible for the French work and to Brother Etienne Genton who is responsible for the work in the Italian language, also to many others with whom right from the beginning a friendship, fellowship and co-operation has been through the years. May God grant that all the brethren who are called by the Lord will work together and go forward in the same Spirit. Only together we can accomplish the great task that lays before us. The Lord God bless you all and be with you all.
