A WELCOME RETURN
In mid December Rev. R. Edward Miller will return to this country
for good with the purpose of remaining here all the time God has
in His plans. For those of us who know him and for all who have
been blessed by his ministry sharing this news causes us to
rejoice in soul and spirit.
He is the founder of the Peniel churches in Argentina and other
countries of the world. He was used by God in pioneer work in our
country, where after much prayer he had a sovereign visitation of
God in Mendoza. This left its mark on his ministry, the fruit of
which we know today.
Later in City Bell God again came to him in a special way
together with a group of Bible school students and teachers.
There God announced He would visit this nation in a special and
glorious way. The fulfillment of this announcement was the Tommy
Hicks campaign in 1954 and important things that happened at that
time. Other prophetic words given then are reality today, for
example: cinema theatres would become temples for God and fire
would extend from Argentina to many other nations.
This has been written by Dr. Miller in his book "Thy God
Reigneth," which has been translated into several languages.
We shall have a recent edition: "Secrets of Revival in
Argentina" published by Peniel Publications. He is also
author of "Victory in Adversity", "Secrets of the
Kingdom", "Holy Spirit", "Romance of
Redemption", "Gideon" and others.
In 1954 he went to live in Mar del Plata where he founded a Home
for homeless children, a Bible Institute and established the
first Peniel church in Argentina. He also held evangelistic
campaigns which resulted in the birth of other churches. Later he
founded other churches and Homes for young people in Buenos
Aires, Córdoba and other cities in the interior of this country
and abroad.
In 1974 he left the work in this country in the hands of his son
John. For seven years he travelled to more than thirty countries
all over the world sharing his ministry.
Finally, in 1980 he settled in Atlanta, Georgia where he was
founder and pastor of a church. He has lived there till now
though he has travelled extensively all over the world. At the
age of 81 he continues to be advisor to pastors and servants of
God.
During his lifetime he has had the privilege of participating in
seven revivals in which God has renewed His church on earth
(including the revival under Dr. Charles S. Price and Aimee
Semple Mcpherson).
His experience and deep knowledge of God and the Scriptures and
the presence of the Holy Spirit in his personal life have brought
spiritual renewal and enrichment to multitudes who have desired
to have a deeper relationship with God.
