Trip to Israel
"For the sake of His great name the LORD will not reject His people, because the LORD was pleased to make you His own" (1 Samuel 12:22) ISRAEL and the Jewish people remain in the LORD’s heart and in His strategic plan to bring salvation to all nations. -What an honor it has been to be present in Israel again, ministering the Word in congregations, praying for Jewish people’s needs, and encouraging spiritual leaders. Many Jewish people are being drawn back to the Holy Land of their forefathers. The Holy Spirit is using the Return to Zion congregation in Haifa in powerful ways to reach out to new Jewish / Slavic immigrants from Ukraine, Belarus and Russia. It was a joy to celebrate the Feast of Trumpets with leaders, Leon, and Nina. Messiah’s Compassion has been supporting their ministries on a regular basis for years. Likewise, it was good to be with Dmitry & Yana in Tabernacle of David congregation in the upper Galilee town of Ma’Alot. Having a population of about 21 thousand, over half of its population speak the Russian language. It was such a joy for me to share directly from the Word of God in their heart language. We prayed for several people following the sermon. One Jewish man, Eugene, received great peace. The LORD also opened doors to pray for war refugees from Ukraine while in Haifa. It was an honor to speak for a morning devotion at their housing center in Haifa. We prayed for refugees and staff members.
War in Ukraine
Though the war in Ukraine rages, our partners/leaders consistently persevere by serving the Jewish people who have needs for food and medicines. Today, as I write, cities all over the country have been under missile attacks including Kyiv. The Messianic leaders relentlessly serve despite their own personal difficulties. The mercies of the LORD endure forever.
