FINAL STRETCH - TIME FOR MIRACLES

Greetings Saints,

We had a wonderful time in Pusan at the International Intercession and Worship Center for three great days. We were blessed with some precious time in God's presence every service before we ministered and the people were very loving and responsive. Almost everyone who received personal ministry shed tears as God touched their hearts. It was hard to say good-bye to them as it was in the first two churches.

KUNSAN

We have been in Kunsan now for three days. We are ministering in a more traditional Presbyterian church, but they are hungry for God. They heard we had a healing ministry so in addition to personal prophecy, we are praying for a lot of sick people in this church of two hundred or more. I've been waiting on God for words of knowledge after the preaching and God has been stirring up that gift.

We are starting to receive some wonderful healing testimonies. One man had severe back pain. The next morning after prayer he got up with plans to go to get a treatment but realized he had no pain at all. He gave his testimony tonight. It was a great encouragement to all. The people have warmed up to our ministry tremendously and they are pouring out God's love to us. This church, run by two single ladies, has never had a foreign minister before, so it's a big step for them.

At each church we ask the people to pray for America. There's no nation in the world that has the reputation for prayer that South Korea has. I also promise to pray for them as they face many challenges as well.

Tomorrow afternoon is our last revival service in Korea. On Monday morning very early, we head back to the airport near Seoul to begin our sixteen hour journey home.

KEEP PRAYING

Most Christians have accepted an Obama presidency as a done deal and are trying to deal with it the best way they know how. I have received so many emails with various attitudes towards what has happened. Very few consider the fact that no one has really been elected president yet. We have technically only elected the Electoral College Electors, who will vote on Dec. 15, if I remember correctly, to actually elect the president. If he cannot prove he is a natural born US citizen there could be problems. On the other hand, if there is a discovery of massive voter fraud, as has been indicated by several dreams of trusted people we know, McCain could still become president.

I am very sorry I have to oppose the election of a minority president. I would so love to have voted for one I could believe in. But regardless of how charismatic Obama comes across, he is still the most liberal senator and the most pro-death person in congress. His cabinet picks are very liberal also and he can take this country down the wrong path in ways that will take decades to recover from. I'm not worried about the economy. God can fix that easily and actually has a very good plan to do so, given the right leadership in the nation. But unless he has a quick change of heart, Obama will appoint more liberal judges and other officials that will set us up for more judgment.

Some say that God has chosen Obama. In my opinion, that is a terrible insult to God. Americans chose Obama and God allowed us to chose him to show where our values are as a nation. It's only in God's mercy that we have any hope. I believe that as in many passages in Scripture regarding Israel, God will help America in spite of our bad decisions. He wants to use America to help bring in the harvest. Please call on God for mercy as never before in the next two months. Not many people have the information I have shared with you in the past, and not many are praying for the miracle we are asking God for. So I'm counting on you.

Please forgive me if I am offending you with this letter. I just can't quit doing everything I can as long as there is hope. I pray you will all understand.

From Korea with love,

Ben and Brenda
