isopatch, The rig count number for operating gas rigs is definitely pulling back-This industry is a trader's delight because there is no stability whatsoever in the supply/ demand sides of this industry!
Meanwhile as we approach the Christmas season, let us not forget that the United States is not the only nation or civilized peoples in the world to have to deal with the plague, the revolting and barbaric pestilence, known as islamic fundamentalism.
Say a prayer for the Akansiola family whose son was murdered last week in Oshogbo, Nigeria by muslim fanatics- from Bonnke's Website:
Day 5 - December 9, 2001
Dear Partners in the Gospel!
Today was the final great gospel-meeting of the Oshogbo crusade. 650,000 people gathered for the closing night. That also explains why our counselors dealt with more than 1.5 million people who responded to the call of salvation during the entire crusade. A flood of healing miracles occurred, which have strong signal-effect and draw even bigger crowds. What a harvest! In my own mind, I bring this immense "success" in connection with the martyrdom of one young Christian in Oshogbo a few days before:
As I already reported, the week before the crusade began, fanatical Muslims went to the Arkansiola-family at night, pulled their 25 year old (only) son Sunday out of bed, took him outside and forced him to say "Allakbar". Sunday refused and kept shouting "Jesus is Lord!" as he was hit and stabbed. With "Jesus is Lord" on his lips he died. I visited the grieving family in their home and prayed with them. Sunday Arkansiola is a true martyr whom we greatly honor in the Lord. I helped the family (with their 3 daughters) financially, because they are in great need and pray that the Lord may comfort their hearts. This brings home, that we live in a volatile world and, as Jesus said, Satan is still the old murderer he always was.
This crusade was the last for this year, but we will return to Nigeria in January for the next big harvest. Please keep praying for the whole CfaN ministry worldwide and that the Lord may enable us to accept and master the greatest challenges.
In His love and service,
Reinhard Bonnke and the whole CfaN Team in Oshogbo. |
