A broken hallelujah.

In 2003, we discovered that the domain names Jaweh.com, Jaweh.org, Jaweh.net, Jaweh.nl and Jaweh.be were all still available. Driven by a love for the Word of God and inspired by the teaching of anointed Bible teachers and ministries from around the world, a desire arose to begin an online magazine.

It was to become a place where powerful, Spirit-filled teaching could be gathered, published and shared with people who were hungry for truth. This is how Jaweh Online Ministries came into being.

We had no extensive policy plan, no financial resources and no developed organisational structure. We simply began with what God had placed in our hands at that time.

At the beginning of 2006, several people began financially supporting the work. Because no legal entity yet existed, these donations were received into our personal bank account. Although we were grateful for every contribution, we also felt the responsibility that came with it. Personal and financial matters needed to be clearly separated.

Therefore, on 17 July 2006—exactly twenty years ago in 2026—Stichting Jaweh Online Ministries was officially established by notarial deed. The foundation was registered in Almkerk, North Brabant.

From that moment onward, the ministry's finances could be managed carefully and transparently. At first, the activities remained largely the same: publishing, preserving and making Biblical teaching accessible.

But God had more in mind than merely an online platform.

At the end of 2008, we lost our business as a result of the financial crisis. From one moment to the next, we found ourselves without work or income. It was a deeply disruptive period, but at the same time, it created more room for us to focus on the ministry.

During that same period, God brought someone into our lives who taught us with a spiritual depth that we had hardly encountered within a church environment until then.

In 2009, we began organising Holy Ghost Fire Nights in Almkerk. Not long afterwards, these evenings were also held in other locations throughout the Netherlands and Belgium. The ministry thereby moved beyond publishing online teaching. Gatherings arose in which there was room for the Word of God, prayer and the work of the Holy Spirit.

In 2010, we came into contact with the American worship leader Terry MacAlmon. We invited him to lead a conference in the Netherlands. This is how The Heart of Worship 2010 came into being at De Betteld in Zelhem.

It became a special and blessed conference. At the same time, a completely different story was unfolding behind the scenes: shortly before the event, we lost our home.

We became homeless.

The contrast could hardly have been greater. While people worshipped God during the conference and experienced His presence, we did not know where we ourselves were going to live. Yet God moved powerfully during those days.

This became a pattern that we would recognise more often later: God's presence does not mean that there is no battle. Sometimes He reveals His faithfulness precisely in the midst of the battle.

At the end of 2011, God provided a temporary home for us in the Rotterdam area. From that place, we began preparing for a new conference.

In 2012, we organised The Heart of Worship in Amsterdam, once again with Terry MacAlmon and with Canadian worship leaders Craig and Gail Docksteader.

It was an exceptionally difficult period for us financially. Nevertheless, we believed that God was asking us not to charge admission and to make the conference completely free of charge. We obeyed, but the provision we had hoped for seemed not to come.

The conference itself was powerful, but the number of visitors fell short of our expectations. The costs were only just covered, and the ministry came to an almost complete financial standstill.

We could not even afford to renew our domain names. The websites disappeared, and De Zalfolie Winkel also went offline. Everything we had worked for over the years seemed to fall apart before our eyes.

We seriously considered dissolving the foundation.

But the Lord spoke clearly:

At the beginning of 2013, God provided a permanent home for us in Dordrecht. After a long period of instability, space arose once again to look ahead.

In 2014, after prayer, we decided to give the ministry a new beginning under a new name: LoveUnlimited Ministries. In 2015, the websites came back online.

Around that time, I wanted to write a short Bible study about anointing and anointing oil for the website. The Lord, however, made it clear to me that I needed to dig deeper. I began studying the Bible from beginning to end and examined everything related to anointing and anointing oil: in Dutch and English translations, in the original texts and within the Jewish background of the Bible.

The research took approximately six months and ultimately included more than 345 Bible verses. What was intended to be a short article grew into a book: The Anointed Bride.

My expectations were low. I initially had one hundred copies printed and assumed that a large portion of them would remain in boxes for years. But within a month, they were sold. This was followed by a new print run, and then another.

The book was translated and eventually found readers in several countries. What began small grew without us having a marketing strategy or a developed sales plan.

At the end of 2015, we received a large donation, which enabled us to relaunch De Zalfolie Winkel at zalving.nl. Not long afterwards, the international website anointingoil.org followed.

In 2016, together with Terry MacAlmon, we organised a successful Glory Night in Dordrecht.

The ministry that had seemed practically dead only a few years earlier was alive again.

In the middle of 2017, we received a prophetic word that God was going to prune us. At that moment, we could not comprehend what this would truly mean.

At the end of that year, both we personally and the ministry once again came under great pressure. Our income, our integrity and our security were attacked. Financial support for the foundation almost completely dried up.

We were no longer able to maintain De Zalfolie Winkel properly. We therefore transferred the work to Con and Heleen de Kort of Stichting Fire in the House Ministries. They subsequently carried and further developed the shop for many years with great dedication, faithfulness and integrity.

In April 2018, we lost our home again.

For the second time, we were homeless.

But unlike in 2012, the foundation continued to exist this time.

To be honest, I had had enough. I decided that I would no longer cover the ministry's financial deficits from our personal income. Because I was not permitted to dissolve God's foundation, I thought I had found another way out: I would simply allow it to dry up financially.

I thought I could outsmart God.

But every time the balance approached zero and the next bill could no longer be paid, an unexpected donation arrived. Sometimes it came from people we did not know, from countries where we had hardly any contacts.

Again and again, exactly enough was provided for us to continue.

Slowly but surely, I began to understand: God was not finished with LoveUnlimited Ministries.

At the end of 2018, God miraculously opened a door that allowed us to live and serve in Israel for several months. We became involved with a ministry that supported Holocaust survivors.

The encounters with these people and the stories they shared with us made a deep impression. Their life stories also placed our own pain in a different perspective.

In 2019, we returned to the Netherlands. Several more years followed in which we moved from one temporary place of residence to another.

At the end of 2021, God opened another door and we received a permanent home. It was the beginning of a long road of rest, restoration and rebuilding.

At the beginning of 2025, I unexpectedly lost my job. Once again, a door seemed to close and uncertainty arose about our future.

But almost immediately afterwards, God opened a door that I could never have arranged myself: I was given operational leadership of Derek Prince Ministries Netherlands.

After having personally been shaped for many years by the Bible teaching of Derek Prince, I suddenly had the privilege of carrying responsibility for the distribution of that same teaching in the Netherlands. What began from a human perspective as loss proved to be the transition into a new assignment.

Not long afterwards, another unexpected step followed.

At the end of October 2025, in obedience to a clear assignment from God, I was permitted to re-establish Stichting Herstelteam Nederland. A work with a history going back to the 1980s, but which had almost completely disappeared for many years, took shape once again.

The name was restored, the foundation was rebuilt, and the original calling—to contribute to spiritual restoration, equipping and revival in the Netherlands—was made visible once again.

Then, in March 2026, De Zalfolie Winkel also returned to the management of LoveUnlimited Ministries. After almost eight years, a part of the work that we had been forced to release during a period of deep crisis was entrusted to us once again.

Not as a return to the past, but as part of a new season.

What had seemed lost was not simply returned. It was returned with greater experience, greater depth and a greater awareness that none of this work belongs to us.

It belongs to the Lord.

Looking back, according to human logic, LoveUnlimited Ministries should no longer exist.

The foundation has known periods without income, without websites, without projects and with virtually no visible future. We ourselves have, at various points, had no home, no security and no strength left to continue building.

Yet the work still exists.

Not because we always made the right decisions. Not because we were exceptionally strong or persevering. Nor because we possessed a brilliant strategy.

LoveUnlimited Ministries exists because God is faithful.

Through it all, God has never abandoned us. His provision did not always come in the way or at the moment we expected. Sometimes it came only when we could see no way out whatsoever. Sometimes the road to restoration led straight through loss and brokenness.

But He was there.

Always.

Twenty years after its official establishment, LoveUnlimited Ministries once again stands at the beginning of a new phase. With renewed responsibility, restored initiatives and new opportunities to reach people with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We do not look back because we want to remain in the past. We look back because God's faithfulness in the past gives us confidence for the future.

And with all our hearts, we believe:
