For the foreseeable future I will begin the ministry letters with a brief, yet I pray, very impacting devotional to stir up our hearts and minds to pour ourselves out for the faith of others. May these words from God's word help us to fulfill our heavenly calling. After the devotional I will post updates and prayer points.

A POURED OUT DEVOTIONAL: "You are the light of the world"!

"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." (Matthew 5:14-16)

Wow, no pressure-I am to be the light of the world? A world that is getting darker by the moment is relying on me to be the light-how can this be? What an incredible responsibility, and do I have the ability?

"Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life." (John 8:12)

"As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world." (John 9:5)

Thankfully, we can see from these verses found in John's writings that it is Christ in us that is the light of the world-making us the light of the world-you and me! And this is why the Matthew verses above are so very important. The very nature of our lives is to be light in the darkness.

To neglect seeing ourselves this way would be like trying to hide a city that sits on top of a hill that in reality is obvious for all to see. Oh the silliness of lighting a lamp in a dark room only to put it under a basket! No, the light is placed on a stand to give light to everyone in the dark house.

In this same way we are not to 'make' our light shine-we are to 'let' our light shine. The Holy Spirit facilitating the glory of Messiah in us makes us light up the darkness all around us! Our mandate is to let the light of Christ within us shine before others. Why? It is so that those in the darkness will see our good works of grace and glorify our Father in heaven by coming to the light-JesusChrist!

So, how do we let our light shine? I am so glad you asked! Here are some verses on which to meditate so that now-today-you can light up the darkness all around you!!!

"If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin."
(1 John 1:6-7)

"The night is far spent, the day is at hand. Therefore let us cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light."
(Romans 13:12)

"For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." (2 Corinthians 4:6)

"Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers. For what fellowship has righteousness with lawlessness? And what communion has light with darkness?" (2 Corinthians 6:14)

"For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light."
(Ephesians 5:8)

"...Therefore He says: "Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light." (Ephesians 5:14)

"He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him."
(1John 2:10)

DON'T FORGET TO PRAY AND SUPPORT AS THE LORD LEADS:

-Our WATCH THEREFORE television program is on two television networks-the information is in this letter-please watch, pray, and support ONLY as the Holy Spirit leads!

-TWO UPCOMING MISSIONS OPPORTUNITIES:

Newsletter – June 2019

June 18, 2019

Truly our ministry is now like never before pouring out to the nations of the world! Many years ago I was in my house in Texas and heard something from the Lord very clearly. Yet, to help effectively share this with you, first I will give a scripture that the Lord gave to me.

"No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations." (Genesis 17:5)

Abram, the father of our faith, had an active faithful walk with the Lord. He lived a life of faithfully moving out on the promises of God. Though he was childless Abram's name meant "exalted father." Then, while still childless, the LORD changed his name to "father of multitudes" Abraham.

You see I had a small yet active ministry in Africa called Poured Out For Africa. I was so happy traveling to many African countries and preaching the gospel-seeing many people saved and discipled in the word of God. I was in Africa about three times per year and have ministered in ten African countries.

As I mentioned, just over ten years ago the Holy Spirit spoke to me and told me that like Abram's name was changed to Abraham our ministry name would change from Poured Out For Africa to Poured Out For The Nations. I really did not know what to think, but in faith I changed the name of our ministry to Poured Out For The Nations.

In the midst of these times I was learning how to teach the Bible on television. I had my own program on a small network based out of West Texas. Abba Father was teaching me how to arrange teachings from His word for broadcast. I did this for about two years.

Then the Lord moved my wife, son, and myself to Israel and during this time I was still ministering in Africa and I still do. Yet, I woke up one morning with an understanding that I was to begin a television program teaching the urgency of this generation, preaching the gospel, and teaching the Bible to the nations from Israel!

Also, during that time the Spirit of the Lord began moving in my son's heart to learn how to produce my television program! He has amazingly learned camera work, editing and other post-production work, and all that is necessary to produce my television program WATCH THEREFORE.

And now, where does our program go? WATCH THEREFORE reaches out to over 200,000,000 (two hundred million homes) in over 200 countries in the world! Truly, just like my Savior told me, we are Poured Out For The Nations!!!

POURED OUT FOR THE NATIONS:
WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

"Yes, and if I am being poured out as a drink offering on the sacrifice and service of your faith, I am glad and rejoice with you all." (Philippians 2:17)

Remember, Paul the apostle was in prison for the gospel's sake when he wrote to the Philippian believers in Messiah Jesus. He was so thankful to sacrifice his life for their faith. Paul compared his life to a drink offering that was poured out on the altar of sacrifice in the Jerusalem temple as a sweet smelling aroma for the LORD.

With Paul as our example, we should be very excited to pour our lives out as a sacrifice for the faith of others. Our program WATCH THEREFORE takes a great deal of spiritual, physical, prayerful, and financial sacrifice to produce on a weekly basis. But think of it, we are reaching over 200 countries with the gospel and discipleship in the word of God during the most critical generation ever!

Please prayerfully consider standing with us prayerfully and financially and together let's be POURED OUT FOR THE NATIONS!!!

Prayer Points:

Watch Therefore Program - New saved souls, faithful disciples of Messiah Jesus, financial support to stay on the air.
Two Kenyan Pastors we financially support monthly
Abba's will regarding two mission trips:
September - Rwanda/Congo
October - India
Wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of our heavenly Father and our Lord Jesus Christ
Protection and provision for our family living in Israel.

Once again, we thank our Savior Jesus for all those who pray for us and support us financially. We pray for you by name regularly and like Paul pronounced over the Philippians who supported him we claim Philippians 4:19 over your lives:

And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:19)

Hallelujah and Maranatha,

Dov Schwarz

Newsletter – May 2019

May 15, 2019

Truly, May 2019 is a big month on my personal journey and also that of our ministry. Certainly, for anyone participating in prayer and giving into our Kingdom work-this is BIG for you too!
Oh Hallelujah, our God Jesus Christ reigns!

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death. (Revelation 12:11)

Testimony of a specific calling

Soon after moving to Israel I awoke one morning with a strong impression or thought that I should begin a television program pertaining to the central message of our ministry-Watch Therefore based on Matthew 24.

Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. (Matthew 24:42-44)

As I prayed and began talking with an American Christian network I was very thankful regarding how interested they were in the program concept. However, I did not have a place or set from which to record-nor the funds to pay for an expensive set.

A prominent and special man of God here in Israel-Pastor David Davis, who has since passed and is now with the Lord, was praying with me about my vision. During the prayer he stopped and told me that the Lord wanted me to wait one year to begin programming. Oh, what will the Lord do with those who will wait on Him (Isaiah 40:31).

During that year the Holy Spirit did two major life changing shifts that made it not only possible, but facilitated a very unique environment for our program. First, He truly gave me favor with a different television network and then He moved our family to a mountainside village that overlooks the Sea of Galilee! Our television set is like a post card picture of the Sea of Galilee and cost no more than the price of the rent for our home!

Then, if that were not enough-Pastor Ray Jensen of our church plant Calvary Chapel in Pearland, TX, came to Israel and trained my son for a week in camera and editing. My son took to it supernaturally (Hallelujah!) and he has gone on to become a very skilled and professional cameraman/producer for our TV program!
For a little over two years WATCH THEREFORE has been airing mostly on CTN (Christian Television Network) to about fifty million possible homes in North America and on a satellite that reaches about 75% of the world. We are also on some local and internet programming in the USA. Then something happened this Spring which is so amazing!

Faithfulness goes a long way with the LORD! (Luke 19:17)

At one point I wanted to contact a larger Christian network to introduce my program. But I heard the Lord say to me something like this: "Don't I promote you well enough?" So, I really felt strongly that my Lord Jesus wanted me to be faithful to what He had already given to me and He would take care of the rest.

Then, about two months ago I began to feel strongly that I should learn about programming in England. I asked a British friend some questions about Christian TV in the UK. About two weeks later I got a phone call from the Inspiration TV Network. They are one of the big global Christian TV networks! They program into over 200 countries and over 200,000,000 (two hundred million) homes world-wide.

Their network calculates their time zones for programming outside the USA and all over the world from England's time zone as they program heavily in England and across Europe! Beginning
May 1, 2019 WATCH THEREFORE will air on Inspiration TV on Wednesday at 11am EST in America and before that-11am in England-and all over the world!

When I spoke to the management team at Inspiration they told me that over two million precious souls prayed to receive Jesus as Lord through their ministry in 2018. I had told them that I wanted to make faithful servant disciples who would hear from the Lord one day "Well done thy good and faithful servant." (Matthew 25:23) They told me that Inspiration TV was looking for programming that is gospel and discipleship oriented and they had been watching WATCH THEREFORE and it fit the bill.
Thanks to our great Savior Jesus!

Oh Hallelujah, our Savior Jesus is Lord to the glory of our Father in Heaven! I am so thankful for my Helper the Holy Spirit who is directing me to abide in Messiah Jesus and to seek grace and mercy from my Heavenly Father. I also pray you bear witness with this testimony and that it blesses and empowers you as well!

I am also thankful for those praying for me and our ministry-please keep praying that...

...I would continue abiding in and hearing from our Lord Jesus!

...Many would be saved as they watch our program WATCH THEREFORE!

...Many would become faithful servant disciples from this powerful message!

...Faithful prayer and financial partners would be raised up from our viewers!

...Favor would continue from the Lord!

...All our ministries would flourish from our television outreach!

...We would continue to be poured out for the nations!
