Dear Friend of Olford Ministries International,
Greetings in Jesus’ Name!
I just returned home late last night from a ministry trip. As I write this email, I am reflecting on my time away and the devotional on Job 28 being sent out this week. I think almost everyone wants “wisdom” to handle the difficulties, the trials and the sufferings of this life.
There are many lessons from the Book of Job but certainly a primary lesson is - you gain a better perspective on...
Greetings in Jesus’ Name!
I hope you are staying well. Thank you for your interest in O.M.I. It means a lot to us. We appreciate your fellowship, and we hope that our ministry is a blessing to you.
We are in serious danger as the people of God if we think that the passing on of Biblical truth from one generation to the next is an automatic process.
Generations can come up “who [do] not know the Lord, nor …. the work which He had done for Israel” (Judges 2:10),...

Greetings to you!
We are finishing our study of Luke 17:11-19 this week. We saw our Lord’s mercy and cleansing last week, and now we will focus on the worthiness of our Lord to receive sincere worship and genuine faith. Praise His Name!
The Lord is also worthy of His gospel being preached faithfully with integrity, clarity, and boldness. We need to be aware of subtle ways that we can compromise the gospel.
I have been looking back through an incredibly insightful book that I read years...

Dear Friends in Christ,
Greetings to you!
Over the next two weeks, we are looking at one passage of Scripture, Luke 17:11-19.
I really encourage you to think about this passage of Scripture in relation to what is happening in our world right now. The message in its original form was written before the Pandemic and before the events of the last few days here in the USA.
This passage of Scripture illustrates our Lord’s merciful response to the cry of needy people. It, also, illustrates...
OPENING REMARKS: It has been a blessing to see so many acts of love during this Covid-19 Pandemic season. Indeed, without such acts of sacrificial love our communities would be in much greater danger and experiencing much more suffering. It can be seen on a daily basis that the “true love” is the excellent response to the present crisis.
One of the most descriptive and challenging statements concerning the nature of true God-enabled love is written by the Apostle Paul.
