There is a wealth of prophetic words and biblical references to the Corona Pandemic. How can we find a sense of direction? How do we deal with this crucial event in human and church history? Is the Corona Pandemic a worldwide crisis - or are we experiencing the fulfilment of end-time prophecy? Bible passage:  Daniel 5 / 2 Kings 5 Message dated March 29, 2020

Serve Holocaust survivors practically despite social distancing - JWU#81 Hello dear Friends, at this time of social distancing it is of particular importance to take care of our Holocaust survivors, many of whom are re-traumatized by the lock-down. Call them to let them know they are not alone! Hear more about how to do this in this edition of the Weekly Update! Until next week!

Hello dear Friends, in times of the coronavirus everything is a bit different. We have transformed our services and events into online worship services and send our warmest greetings to all our friends in all nations. A tiny virus is turning the world upside down. In order to protect others, we must distance ourselves from them. Our prayer is for all those who are trapped in fear, and I want to tell you that our God has everything in His hands! The Marches of Life and the March of Nations had to be postponed. A warm invitation also to the "Prayer of the 9th Hour". Find out more in my new Weekly Update. See you next time!

The days of the coronavirus mark a profound break in history. This is God's wakeup call to seek His face in prayer and to return to Him. In Judaism, the ninth hour was the hour of prayer (see Acts 3:1). What will be our response to God's call? Bible passage:  Haggai 2:6 Message dated March 15, 2020

Dear Friends, the global repercussions of the coronavirus can be felt in every nation. Today I am speaking about what that means for us as believers, how the Church can be a light in the world at this time, and what it means for us as a church in practical terms and for the Awakening Fire Conference. We are praying for you all! See you again next time!

Hello dear Friends, today I have Michaela Buckel as my guest in the studio again. Like everybody in Germany, we are deeply saddened by the recent racist attack in Hanau. I am talking to Michaela about the connection between identity, nationalism, racism and antisemitism, and that this is not just a German problem, but it affects all nations. At our March of Life conference last weekend, we, together with participants from 18 nations, looked for answers to precisely these questions and talked about the importance of taking a stand and raising our voices.

Hello dear Friends,  We just finished the March of Life Conference. We had participants from 18 different nations.

Hello dear Friends,  last week I was in Israel to receive an award from  the Ministry of Tourism. In my speech I said that this award was an encouragement and a challenge for the March of Life at the same time never to stop the Marches and to call people to Israel.  So it is my call to every church to send 7 representatives to the March of the Nations in Israel on May 12-14! For further information, please see www.marchofthenations.com We are looking forward to seeing you there! Until next time!

The will of God is so vitally important that Jesus taught His disciples in the Lord's Prayer: "Your kingdom come, your will be done!" Millions of Christians pray this prayer every day without understanding how to know the will of God. What is the perfect will of God? Are there situations that God simply allows or permits to happen? And how do I recognize the will of God?  Bible passage:  Mathew 6:10 Message dated January 19, 2020

Followers of Jesus have to be increasingly prepared that others will question and reject the basic values of the Gospel. Their testimony and the Good News of the Gospel are like reflectors of light in places of darkness. Bible passage:  Luke 2:34 Message dated January 05, 2020
