Update On Edgar Reich - Please Pray

sermonindex Apr 23, 2012

Saints,

I received this email from brother edgar, we need to keep this minister of the Lord in our prayers more.

---


Dear Brandy, dear Greg,
Thank you for your kind note. I was reminded to write or to call but i was very weak and in much pain. The Lord just gave me a reprieve and some strength, so I'll write. I am going into my ninth weak of illness. I am on my third round of antibiotics and the doctors have not been able to diagnose the problems. Initially it was thought that I must have picked up microbes or parasites during the ministry in Africa. Many tests and cultures later this is unlikely. I will be seeing another Doctor who is a specialist next Wednesday. There are moments of anxiety. Yet I am perfectly calm. I am surrendered to God. He can do with me whatever is His will. While bound to a bed I am continuing to learn and I realize:
1.) God's goodness and love for His children exceeds infinitely the love of an earthly father. Would an earthly father give a stone to a son who asks for bread? God permits only what benefits me and that may include pain. How else will I learn? How else can I learn to endure? How else can I learn to trust and obey?
2.) God's goodness and love for His children exceeds infinitely the love of an earthly mother for her newborn babe. The Lord says she might forget, but He will never forget me.
3.) I have absolute confidence that God does for His children what is absolutely perfect, wise and good.

So why should I feel discouraged? Why should the shadows come? Why should my heart be lonely and long for heav'n and home -- when Jesus is my portion, my constant friend is He. His eye is on the sparrow and I know He watches me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So dear Brandy and Greg be encouraged with me that our great God is absolutely perfect wise and good.
I do cherish your prayers. I walked through life only depending on my self. Now I did not want to be a burden to anyone but perhaps God is teaching me that I must also depend on my sisters and brothers. If now anyone intercedes for me in this way all I can say is Thank You, and may the Lord mightily bless you and repay you with His goodness many-fold.

Sending love and blessings,
Edgar

Amen, I'm coming to learn how important it is to be vitally related to the Body of Christ in many practical ways, in daily life, in much prayer. Praying...

In Christ,

Any word since seeing the Specialist today?

Here is a praise report and update, lets keep praying for brother Edgar:

--

Dear Sisters and Brothers in Christ,
Thank you for your love, well wishes, prayers and asking for updates. I have not been well enough to answer all of your notes individually, please forgive me.
Here is a brief update: I have had two Elders pray for me and lay hands on me in obedience to the Lord and James Chapter 5.
Then several brothers were fasting and praying for me on Tuesday asking God specifically:
a.) To bring me to a doctor that would know what is wrong. ( For 8 weeks the doctors did not know.)
b.) To bring me to a doctor that would take quick action.
c.) That God would bring quick healing.
Here is what happened: I went to a specialist this week Wednesday. He arranged a scat scan for me for Thursday morning. He called me at 5 p.m. on Thursday that he is hospitalizing me Friday morning, which is this morning. Under the constraints of the Canadian medical systems, these three quick steps each is a miracle, Praise God. The doctor says he knows what is wrong, another miracle.(Blockages and an abscess.) My daughters are in Toronto and they are helping me. When I returned from the USA I applied for medical coverage and they accepted me without a waiting period. This was another miracle by our dearest most high God.
I am writing this update early Friday morning. Sorry, I must get ready for hospital. Our great God is much to be praised. He will do the healing!
Thank you for all of your prayers and kindnesses. God is answering your prayers.
I owe you love, but I am also sending blessings and love to you.
Edgar Psalm 121

GOD is So Good! Psalm 121 is the same Psalm the LORD gave my Pastor before his triple bi-pass 5 yrs ago and he came out Fine.
Thank you for the smile Brothers Edgar and Greg. Thank you, LORD!

When I returned from the USA I applied for medical coverage and they accepted me without a waiting period. This was another miracle by our dearest most high God.

A miracle that wouldn't have been possible without obedience to the laws of this land, btw.

Brother Edgar was here legally on a visa from Canada but the U.S. would not renew it [imagine that?], after years of him being here Ministering as an upright person and when asked to leave, he obeyed the law and packed up and went back to Canada.


I can't do emails, so I truly appreciate updates. Thank you!

Any new word on Brother Edgar??

I heard a wonderful praise report but hope to talk to him tomorrow, will let the saints know....... bro Frank

sermonindex May 7, 2012

Edger is doing really well, out of hospital, no surgery, many many testimonies of divine encounters in hospital and the Lord has richly blessed him. I will give more details when I have time, praise the Lord for His servant who loves not his life unto death and is willing to share the word of his testimony about the blood of the Lamb.........bro Frank
