There is no Dual Covenant

Israel is not saved. There is no dual covenant. The only way of salvation is by faith in Jesus, or Yeshua in Hebrew which means salvation. But the Church is also not Plan B.

The Apostle to the Gentiles told the Roman church "all Israel SHALL be saved." There is yet a time that Israel will fulfill its calling to be "a light unto the nations." In fact, as a parallel to what Paul said that "all Israel shall be saved," Isaiah (49:6) gives the full prophetic utterance - "I will also make you -Israel- a light to the nations—so that all the world may be saved."

Israel produced Jesus in bodily flesh, a Jew who is the Light of the world but the promise of God to Israel does not end there, because God says "I WILL MAKE YOU, ISRAEL" a light to the nations "SO THAT ALL THE WOLRD MAY BE SAVED."

In God's plan from the beginning, He did not allow Israel to see because it was always His intention to set His "chosen people" aside in exile so He could introduce to the nations salvation by faith in His Son. But it was never God's intention to leave Israel out of this great salvation, but there are so many promises of God to restore Israel physically and spiritually in the fulness of time.

I am always shocked at how blind Christians are to that multitude of prophetic promises God has made to Israel - never to be revoked.

A great many Christian leaders and scholars do not believe there will be a coming to faith in Jesus among Israelis in the last days that can only be viewed as a national level of coming to faith. Many Israelis Messianic believers now teach that as Israel comes to faith, the witness of it among unbelievers in the nations will be so startling, that it will also cause a great spiritual harvest among the nations. This will be the fulfillment of Isaiah 49 prophecy to Israel. How could it not be a witness to the nations to see that many Israelis finally understanding who their Messiah is?

Christians cannot have the worldwide revival like you envision until we stop rejecting God's plans about restoration. To do that, we must come alongside Israel in the spiritual restoration.

The nation of Israel was restored by God as promised with lots of Christian help. Now, the spiritual restoration can only go forward in Israel if Christians come alongside in that restoration too. I am NOT talking about mere political backing and assistance, I am talking about supporting the 10-15,000 believers and the over 200 congregations and ministries speaking the Gospel to their countrymen.

If Christians did not have a blind spot about God's intentions about restoring Israel spiritually, then they would not have a blind spot either about the existential threat Israel is fighting against the demonized Islamists trying to annihilate the Jewish people.

Many Christians who support Israel politically fail to understand God's plans to restore Israelis by faith in Jesus. They are wrong about dual covenants and other issues, but not nearly as wrong as those Christians who have denied God's faithfulness to Israel in the long term plan of God.

The Root Bears You: Ingrafting of the Gentiles

The Ingrafting of the Gentiles
Romans 11:15-21
For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead? If the first part of the dough is holy, so is the whole batch; if the root is holy, so are the branches.

Now if some branches have been broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, have been grafted in among the others to share in the nourishment of the olive root, do not boast over those branches.

If you do, remember this: You do not support the root, but the root supports you. You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I could be grafted in."

That is correct: They were broken off because of unbelief, but you stand by faith. Do not be arrogant, but be afraid. For if God did not spare the natural branches, He will certainly not spare you either.

PLEASE TAKE NOTE:  You were grafted in among those who believed and were branches that were not broken off, and you were grafted in TO SHARE with them in the mutual nourishment of ALL the branches made into ONE olive tree with a root system of faith in God's Messiah - the planting of the LORD in human skin. All the Hebrew scriptures pointed to Jesus, and thousands in Israel came to faith in Him. They were choked out of the nourishment that the combined Jewish and Gentile believers in Jesus could have supplied to both of us - BUT NEVER has the world since Jesus seen a time when there were ZERO Jewish believers in Jesus. The Church just denied them the nourishment of being one with them. That is a huge fault and it is the fault line today as more and more Christians are turning into raging antisemites. 

 In recent years I have seen a push especially among the non-denominational church leaders to try to reconnect and somewhat come under the Catholic Church. Names like James and Betty Robison, Kenneth Copeland, Lou Engle - a huge roster of names joining into this movement since 2014.

I have nothing bad to say about establishing unity with the Catholic church as much as possibly, but I also know that the most concerted effort to establish reconciliation and oneness with the Catholic church has come from the Messianic movement, specifically Toward Jerusalem Council II. It was a vision given to the Messianic leader of my own place of worship in 1995 in Dallas Texas, but it soon spread to include many prominent Messianic and Christian leaders. It's core group has always included influential Catholic leaders. (you can read about the vision and what they have done with it globally since 1995. Link to the document below).

One thing I want to note is that the Jewish believers in Jesus making the first move to try to find unity with whatever parts of the Christian Church that was interested in the same thing. If the later outreaches to the Pope do not include Messianic Jewish leadership - and the most obvious would be those connected with TJC2, then my concern is this is just another troubling exclusion of the Jewish believers in Christian attempts to become unified without them. Maybe that is not the point - I hope not because in the days we live it would represent a grave mistake. Pitfalls abound.                                                                 - * -

The first BREACH of the Church from the Apostolic led Jewish believers in Jerusalem came as the churches drifted from connection with the Jewish part of the body of the Lord. By the time of the Nicean Council, 265 years following the span of years recording in the Book of Acts - Constantine made sure to put the axe to the Jewish roots of the Christian faith. That was a grave mistake. If you will recall the Apostle to the Gentiles warned, Christians in Romans 11: "you do not bear the root, but the root bears you".

What do you think that means? It means that when the Nicean Council put an axe to the Jewish part of the body of believers, it cut off the nutritional feed lines of the tree that Christians had been grafted into. (Romans 11).

As AI puts it, "A tree root system primarily provides stability and essential resources for survival. Key functions include anchoring the tree securely in the ground, absorbing water and nutrients (like nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium) from the soil, storing energy (starch) for future growth, and transporting these vital materials upward."

This was not a throwaway analogy. As smug as some Christians are about their place in the body of Christ, they are oblivious to the bigger picture of how the body breach at Nicea has left them vulnerable to all sorts of errors - many handed down from "the early church fathers" who separated from the roots God planted in Israel, have passed along deep errors in the church.

I am writing this because I ran across a friend who I know to be a spiritually hungry, sincere and rather well grounded Christian, posting favorably on the error of transubstantiation. This is the Catholic teaching that the blood and bread of communion turns into the actual skin and blood of Jesus when you take communion.

This is one of the deep errors that I was speaking of and since about 2014, I have noticed more and more non-denominational church leaders trying to make their own reconciliation with the Catholic Church. I assume that this is completely outside of the efforts of Toward Jerusalem Council II, so therefore, without the "roots" trying to establish a unity that does not include Messianics. This is a mistake that will led to compromise like I saw in the post pushing believe in transubstantiation.

I will tell you that the efforts of TJCII have yielded much fruit of unity of some parts of the global church, but not one time have they been able to share the communion of the body and bread even between the board members. The Catholics cannot share the communion with non-Catholics because of their teaching about transubstantiation.

If Christians are persuaded to adopt this false teaching it is going to put many Christians in the falling away side of the Church in the last days. I cannot be more sincere in warning about this.

Here is what I responded to my friend, R: "the early church fathers". I think I would be correct in saying that you were not speaking of the first century apostolic leaders, but Christian leaders who raised up after them, which unfortunately began the fall away from the understandings grounded in the Scriptures - mostly Hebraic which the leaders in the Church quickly were separated from.

They started using their own ideas of what Hebraic thought could have easily explained to them. I don't say that the early church fathers got everything wrong - they didn't! But many, many things they did misinterpret because the Church did not stay connected to the roots of the faith that our Jewish brothers understood then and understand now.

The body and the bread of the Last Supper, which was the Passover meal, is SYMBOLIC. It does not magically turn into actually skin and blood of Jesus.

This is a deception, brother. Miracles can (and do!) happen taking communion - the symbols of Jesus becoming the Passover Lamb sacrificed to cover the sins of the people - but the bread and the wine do not become actual skin and blood anymore than Jesus turned into a wooly little lamb for sacrifice.

These things are SYMBOLS of the REALITY that took place. Do not be led down a path that tries to replace the first century Apostles teaching with the often misinterpreted assumptions in teaching of the "early church fathers."

Respect where they were right but if it doesn't align with teaching in the Word of God - like the transubstantiation of the Catholic mass - do not align! This is a lie from the pit of hell leading Christians into pathways of almost 2000 years of deception and disconnection from the Jewish believers in the Messiah of Israel, Jesus in our language, Yeshua in His own language.

OneNewManToday Reuven Doron sends this good word: "Wars and rumors of wars will keep popping up and Israel shall remain central to a rising global flood of irritation and anger. The intercessors must get used to it and learn to keep serving the Lord by the leading of His Spirit in spite of it. We love peace and pray for it while being fully aware that there will be no lasting peace on earth UNTIL the Prince of Peace rules the planet from His throne in Jerusalem. In fact, we would prefer to remain in this demanding and sorrowful state of perpetual conflict with our biblical enemies, serving the Lord under fire, since we believe that the coming peace will be the last one before things turn dark."

Arni & Yonit Klein of Emmaus Way send: "Greetings from Uganda. As it is for many at this time, life has become rather unpredictable. Our original return flight for March 22nd was cancelled due to the security situation. Our rebooking for April 6th was also cancelled.... Our airline is presently accepting reservations beginning mid-month....Since we are scheduled to be here again by May 15th for a retreat beginning on the 18th, so we are waiting to see if it will work out to be reasonable for a trip home between now and then. If not, our projected one-month trip will end up being four. As you might imagine, this has been a rather unique stretching exercise in surrendering our plans and expectations to God’s sovereignty. Thankfully our living situation is quite comfortable, and we are well taken care of. The unexpected days here have provided opportunity for private meetings with individuals and groups with questions and a desire to go deeper into the heart of the message we’ve been given to impart….“a believing Major General in the Ugandan army participated in the last retreat…the senior commander for a number of national military departments.... He only returned to Uganda on the second day and came straight from the airport. On the way the Holy Spirit told him he was going for advanced studies. What an amazing word for the Lord to have spoken! We had much opportunity to interact personally, and he expressed the desire to spend some time visiting personally. He is deeply spiritual with a perspective and understanding of roots and foundations…as one would expect from a person of such position and responsibility. He shared of a time when they were in the midst of a military conflict in which the Ugandan forces were unable to get the upper hand. The Lord told him that the church needed to be brought in, as the battle involved spiritual forces. They identified three demonic altars from which this insurgent force was receiving its strength. When the believers engaged to tear the altars down, the elusive enemy disappeared overnight. Concerning Israel, the Lord told Him that Israel worshipped their technology and needed the Presence of the Lord. So there he was at a series of meetings concerning what the church can do to effect that end. Praise the Lord. . . .There was much more. Email

 Sally Shiff, Intercessor & English-speaking Liaison for Kehilat HaMaayan wrote on 4/8: ". . . .this could be the last update for 2 weeks. Israel is still going after Lebanon as Hezbollah is still going after the north. But if there is any indication that the people of Israel are able to breathe without the immediate threat of a red alert (even the 2 we had today after the ceasefire) was shown as my friend and I went to an outdoor mall. It is the final day of Passover, a holiday where there is no work. The mall was packed, I mean PACKED with thousands of people shopping, eating and finally enjoying life without fear. Joy, relief, and plenty of conversation filled the air. . . .These past 40 days were the most exhausting for me since the first days of the Gaza war. . . .For the next 2 weeks....I choose to keep my nose in the Bible, and my fight within prayer....the greater fight is in the spirit, and affects the natural....I believe the beginning of the fight started with the revival that happened in Iran a few years ago. And significantly the ceasefire happened during Passover: LET MY PEOPLE GO! (btw, for you historians, it is the 70th anniversary of the movie "The Ten Commandments"). I am cautiously optimistic.  I have learned over the years that the enemy breaks ceasefires. This time, we, the US and the gulf states stand ready to return at a moment's notice. Intercessors, be at the same guard. Continue to pray for God's perfect will.”

The Revive Israel team led by Youval Yanay write, “This past week felt like a turning point. Passover came to an end, and a temporary ceasefire was declared. It was an unusual moment. On one hand, there was a sense of quiet. On the other, we don’t really know what it means yet or how long it will last. So we stay anchored in the Lord....Right now, we are getting ready to begin the discipleship program. There are quite a few participants coming, along with volunteers and our team, and we’re about to step into these forty days together. What stands out most is the hunger. These young Israelis are coming with a real desire for the Word of God, and a willingness to step away from everything for a time to draw closer to Yeshua. We feel the responsibility of that."

Eitan Shishkoff founder of Fields of Wheat (and Tents of Mercy congregation) relates the paradigm shift he experienced after be saved in the 70’s Jesus movement to understanding God’s intention that he was to preserve his Jewish identity within the faith in Jesus: “In the spring of ‘75, my daily reading took me to the New Testament account of the Last Supper. I read…Matthew 26:26-27. The instant I finished those verses my eyes were opened. Suddenly I understood that the Lord established what we call “communion” or “Messiah’s Supper” during the biblical Passover meal. That meant that He and the disciples were Jewish (Duh, Eitan!). And here’s a very personal part…it meant that being born of a Jewish mother was part of my calling as a believer in Jesus.
     The implications were like the ever larger ripples created by the proverbial stone thrown into a pond. Connie and I began celebrating Passover with our children, The first step was to link our lives to the annual cycle of biblical holidays — all of which point to and are fulfilled in Yeshua. The next step was to hear God calling us to move to Israel and serve Him here.
     When I discovered that the Last Supper was the Passover meal it changed my life, restoring my Jewish heritage and bringing me to Israel in 1992. These 33 years of serving Yeshua in His homeland are the direct result of that surprise.

Howard Bass of the Beer Sheva Yeshua’s Inheritance congregation had much to report after they were allowed to gather after 6 weeks in live services, but this is the thing that leapt out at me to share with intercessors: “I did another video, under 40 min, this one called "Until...".  The living God has communicated to us to share with us what He is about.  This is what He said about Abraham when He was going to judge Sodom and Gomorrah; and what Yeshua said to His disciples as He was opening His heart to them.  The Lord wants us to be understanding and expectant, strengthening us with His Spirit for when the final sustained thrust is called for to the glory of His Name. (Gen 18:16-19; Jn 15:1-17)   

Ronit Bender, a lady from the Carmel congregation who practices personal evangelism in her daily life writes, "I do not think I have ever clung to the Lord as closely as I do now. I am not afraid to die, as many of you would feel too, as we know what our final destination is."To live is Christ, and to die is gain" (Phil. 1:21).  But what about those that do not believe? I am surrounded by pre- believers, and I believe this is God's plan for my life right now. Reaching out to the weary and fearful, planting hope and the Love of God. . . .The other day at (her friend's) salon, a woman walked in whom I had met 20 years ago when Tom and I had just returned to Israel. She was so surprised to see the joy on my face while all around is fear and sadness. Somewhere in the passing years, she had a stroke and almost lost her life. I shared my testimony with her, and could see she was visibly touched. I do not believe in pushing people as far as faith is concerned, I could see the seed was planted and now, it is between them and God for faith to flourish. I pray for more opportunities to reach this woman and others the Lord brings, to see them coming into the Kingdom of God." [If you don’t know, Ronit is a woman in her mid-70’s who is suffering from both a serious heart condition and also knee – operations are out of the question for both. She suffers a considerable amount of pain 24/7 – trusting God through it all. Prayers for Ronit please.]

Return to Zion is the Haifa congregation led by Leon Mazin. His team write: “Thursday, April 9, 2026 — 22 Nisan 5786 here in Israel. Passover has just concluded in Israel, and we are now continuing into the 7th day of the Omer. In this transition from the feast into the days that follow, we are sharing a new letter from Pastor Leon—written out of these recent Passover days here in Haifa. In this letter, Leon reflects on the strain of living under sirens and missile fire, while also giving thanks for the children and teenagers who found refuge, safety, and joy together in the congregation during the holiday. It is a personal and sobering word, but also one marked by gratitude for God’s protection and care in the middle of a difficult time. We believe it will help you pray for us with greater understanding. READ: Passover Under Fire, Hope in the Shelter"

From Avi & Chaya Mizrachi of Dugit Ministries they write, “"Here in Israel, resilience is part of our daily life. Not wars, and not missiles, will stop us (though traffic might…lol). Through it all, we stand firm in faith, knowing the Lord is beside us, and our spirits will not be crushed. They ask prayers of protection over families and communities across the country and for strength and endurance for those facing challenges each day."  | The Mizrachi's also founded the Adonai Roi congregation in Tel Aviv where daughter and son-in-law Nate and Sarah Silverman now lead. The Mizrachi's have many beloved grandchildren, including the latest, a third child, born to daughter Devora and Dror Boaz. The boy, who was named Aviv Harel Boaz, his parents say was named "Aviv which means 'spring' or 'springtime,' symbolizing renewal, blossoming, growth, and hope. These are our prayers not only for him, but for all the people of Israel in these days. His middle name Harel means  "Har" (mountain) and "El" (God) — "the mountain of God".

Guy Cohen who leads Harvest of Asher congregation in Acco writes, “Last week I visited the home of a member of the Harvest of Asher congregation, whose house was damaged by a missile that struck nearby. I was in shock by the extent of damage to his apartment and the surrounding area, including cars and other buildings. I was also shaken by the realization of how only by the grace of God had he survived; as I witnessed firsthand the reality of the situation.
     Many families, including our neighbors up the road, whose homes and property were damaged, are now facing not only the devastation itself, but also the immediate need to provide for basic necessities such as temporary housing, medical care, food, and transportation. While the government institutions do provide compensation, the process takes time, and in the critical first days and even weeks families are left to carry the burden on their own.
     From this place, we, the elders of the Harvest of Asher congregation, through our non-profit organization, are stepping forward in a new initiative, out of a deep commitment to support families who have been affected during this time.
     We are launching a project to support families from the Western Galilee, both Jewish and Arab, who have been affected by the war. Our goal is to provide families with initial support of approximately 5,000 NIS (equivalent of $1,667.83 USD), offering them breathing space and relief during this difficult time. This is a small act, yet one that can make a meaningful difference.
     We invite you to join us to help reach as many families as possible who are in urgent need, and those who may face these challenges in the coming days. We want to emphasize that no gift is too small. Every contribution comes together as an expression of grace, compassion, and the shared faith that we are called to stand with one another in times of trial.
     Beyond financial help, we seek to send a clear message: you are not alone. We stand together as one, in faith and in love. To be part of this initiative, please use this link. Kindly note that your donation is intended for families affected during the war.

Awake Israel Ministries, Shlomy and Miriam Abramov. Shlomy, who in his pre-faith younger years was one of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s personal body guards, today is a minister of the Gospel and does humanitarian aid in central Israel. Miriam wrote on Facebook that Shlomy suffers from a painful slipped disk that he was healed of 15 years ago. It has come back and he needs to be healed again. Also pray for severe leg pain from small vein syndrome. They have applied to get a car lift that will the state may provide.  The small vein syndrome qualifies Shlomy for the lift and would open a way also to allow taking handicapped persons on day trips as they already do for non-handicapped people. Please pray that the lifter and installation will be approved soon - also pray for the back and leg pain Shlomy is dealing with.

You can also join Josie’s Weekly Prayer for Israel via Zoom. All the above is located at this link.

Kerem-El, a daughter congregation of the Carmel congregation, is led by Stefan and Keren Silver. Like all of the Israeli congregations, during the war they were not allowed to hold services in person, but met instead for Zoom services. "After the ceasefire took affect last week, we’ve been able to return to regular meetings, for now. However, this could change at any given moment. We want to thank you for your continuing prayers and support for Kerem-El during this difficult time." As they wrote, "life here in the land has been disrupted for the past month. Virtually every family in Israel is affected directly or indirectly, with reservists being called up and having to leave their families to deal with the trauma of daily bombings. Schools were closed and classes held online, which has proven to be extremely difficult for the teachers and the children, and the parents as well. Jobs have also been affected, with many businesses struggling to survive."
     These are prayer priorities over this congregation, and indeed many of the congregations across Israel. Even with few deaths reported from the massive missile and drone attacks all across Israel, there is life-changing damage all over. Homes shattered, many wounded. Your prayers and financial support can make a difference for those who are believers of Israel sharing the Gospel.

Dov and Olga Bikas and the Aviv Ministry team send this update which you can read online by linking to the PDF here. They also share “the second part of the documentary film dedicated to the 20th anniversary of Aviv Ministry. It is called "Invisible People."

Yet behind every “invisible” life is a person longing not just for help, but for dignity, love, and hope.
FYI: Those with addiction problems of all kinds all across Israel are drawn to these streets in Tel Aviv when they reach a tipping point in their addiction that smaller towns cannot support. These are the poorest and meanest streets, filled with desperate addicted people and all sorts of crime.

Kobi and Shani Ferguson, Maoz Israel Ministries write, “This war was supposed to be about a better tomorrow for tens of millions of people. It is about gutting a poisonous, cancerous evil and planting seeds for freedom of worship in the heart of the Middle East.
     We realize trying to understand everything from a distance can be frustrating. We can only tell those who trust us, our hope is that an incredible evil is being addressed before it reaches our doorstep and yours. An evil that has been preparing tirelessly for decades to crush freedoms we all hold dear.
     In the Middle East, they understand this. Which is why, in the craziest plot twist you could imagine, entities historically hostile to Israel the West, are suddenly singing the praises of the US and Israel. Arguably, it’s not because we’re that great - it's because they’re that desperate. . . .Whether you think going to war was a wise decision or not, it has created space for change. As such, we are preparing for the moment Iran’s rebirth could open the door for the Gospel to be shouted from the rooftops.

Jennifer Guetta of Plant Hope Israel is celebrating her new book The JEZEBEL Deception on Amazon with a price cut for the first month! The paperback, usually priced at $14.95, is now only $11.95. EBOOKS, normally $9.45, are now just $7.45.
     FYI from Donna: Over the past several years there has been a spread in the American Christian world of the idea that the ancient false gods have come back and are the demons we wrestle against spiritually in the current time. Not only are the ancient false gods believed by Christians to be what we are waging spiritual warfare against, but many who believe this also say, 'Jezebel was just a woman.'
     I believe that is an unfortunate distraction of the people of God and here is why. The book of Revelation does not name ANY of the ancient false gods but it does name the spirit of Jezebel as a MAJOR spiritual enemy the body faces in the last days.
     Don't waste your time spiritually warring against false gods when the major spiritual influence against the Church is actually Jezebel and the Beast. Most of the ancient false gods were worshipped for favor in things most people in the modern world do not even consider as coming from worshipping or sacrificing to a crafted golden idol. Our idols are movie, music, and sports stars, not golden statues that dictate how much our farm fields yield, or to seek for our personal safety or favor to prosper. The mindset of the modern world is not tied to the ancient mythological gods and goddesses, but the demons spirit of Jezebel sure lives large among us. Big time.
     My best advice to you is to let the Word of God speak to you about where the warfare lies, not those who send you on a spiritual scavenger hunt for the false gods of ancient civilizations God has already removed from influencing myths. Focus on the spirits that the Bible names, and in John the Revelator, that dominant spiritual foe of the believers in Jesus is the spirit of Jezebel.

Arrows from Zion Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries

Continuing from the article above (Prophecy in the Days Before Passover 2026) - from the Tikkun Global, Passover Event at Dallas Upperroom with Asher Intrater and Paul Wilbur. The Exodus Passover points to the Revelation ‘Passover’ in the Great Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Watch the 3/31 replay on Tikkun YouTube.
     TRUST ME YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS SERVICE: We do not have to go in blind to what is unfolding in the last days because the Passover Exodus shows us what is going to take place - the evil empire, God's judgments for those who are in it and His protection of His own people (us!) and our own Red Sea deliverance while the evil empire is dealt its death blow.

Carolyn & Richard Hyde, Heart of G-d ministries, gives a report on finally making it back to Israel after the war trapped them in Australia – but God opened many doors for them down under. Once back, they had a harrowing experience while out with their grandchildren and incoming missiles – one headed right for Carolyn was safely intercepted. THIS IS THE PROTECTION OF GOD’S CHILDREN – listen to Carolyn’s story
on Vimeo.
     * This is the same Divine protection Asher was talking about in the Passover event: God’s protection is not just for the Israelis who are saved by faith in Yeshua/Jesus - God is protecting ALL Israel because He has plans to deliver and save them! Despite the best efforts of the evil Islamic empire in Iran to rain thousands and thousands of cluster bombs down on Israeli – relatively few Israeli lives have been taken – a little over 20 killed. That is GOD’s protection and it is preparing Israeli hearts to understand God’s purposes and Divine will for them. dd

Ruby Bishai, the Christian Arab Fields of Wheat team member, is another one who has been stuck in another country (USA) throughout the war finally made it home to Israel. Ruby writes, “Shortly after I landed, we had five sirens at the airport. I found myself sitting in a bomb shelter for about an hour until everything was cleared. . . .This is our reality. And even with everything happening, I’m still deeply grateful, and honestly, just happy to be back home. I also want to take a moment to thank everyone I met on this trip"

 Reuven Doron onenewmantoday.com wrote WAR BABIES: “Of our five remarkable grandchildren growing up next to us here in Israel, the youngest ones recently turned three years old. These boys’ ENTIRE LIFE’S EXPERIENCE has been under the shadow of this war. They know nothing else. For them it is REALITY to wake up to blaring air-defense sirens warning of incoming ballistic missiles overhead. For them it is REALITY to rush into bomb-shelters with a 60 second window of time at home, at the kindergarten, or at the park. For them it is REALITY to lean hard on Mom and grandparents for emotional stability and safety since Dad is deployed into an endless on and off combat military duty. For them, it is REALITY to learn to live a full life, holding tightly to their older siblings, while their family and little world is always on the edge of danger. Don’t feel sorry for them or for us....What is God’s purpose in this suffering for this young generation? What treasures is the Holy Spirit producing in the darkness of this hour as Israel’s battles intensify and her global isolation increases? What strength, long-suffering, endurance, resilience, and patience are being forged in these little hearts against the backdrop of pain, stress, fear and trauma? Let these be your intercessions as you seek the mind of Christ and pray His prayers for the Peace of Jerusalem. As far as we are concerned, our MAIN focus is to bring comfort during these trying days by leading the people (starting with ourselves) to the love of God.”

Sally Shiff  Intercessor & Liaison for Kehilat HaMaayan wrote on 3/25, "So far, 4 red alerts today, 3 of them back to back here in kfar Saba. The last one, Daisy and I were once again out walking. We went into the nearest apartment building and joined the residents in the bomb shelter. When we left, we made new friends! There is a "community" that takes place during those ten mins we have to wait in the shelter while hearing the rockets overhead explode. . . .There have been very serious explosions due to the rockets that have gotten past our defenses. While Israel and the US target military outposts and IRCG offices, Iran targets civilians, schools, and apartment buildings. [This is moral clarity versus evil empire! dd]
     Cluster bombs are hard to capture all of the munitions, thus making it very dangerous for Israel and the rest of the Middle East. . . .an Israeli video featuring the foremost expert on Iran relations: EXPERT: Iran’s Regime Is Collapsing Before Our Eyes - They’re Also Getting Desperate! 

Howard Bass of Yeshua’s Inheritance congregation in Beer Sheva writes, "The return of the scattered Jewish people back to this very land is a visible proof of the existence of the one true living God. (Ezek 37:11-14; 39:21-29; Is 43:1-13) This promise is not yet fulfilled in full, but YHVH is testing the hearts of His own people firstly, and the hearts of Christians, and the hearts of all others and nations in their attitudes and actions towards His beloved people whom He chose for His glory”
     "We need to remember that jihadi Islam is a death cult, seeing martyrdom as the best thing that they should live for. So for Iran and its allies, causing chaos and destruction even among the other Arab and Muslim countries in the Middle East is, for them, not a problem.  Should they all be killed, that just fits their own "end-times outlook" for taking over the world.  It is certainly a very perverse mentality, and clearly points to its source.  PRAY FOR MANY MUSLIMS TO BE SAVED by the God of Israel, through the calling upon the name of the Son of God and King of the Jews, and Savior of the world.”

Chaim Malespin of Aliyah Return Center on 3/20 files VIDEO report on “3 weeks of intense war!” and Chaim’s video report on what GOD is doing in this time in Israel (the spiritual rebuilding), plus the “Miracle in Dimona” also writing: It was a tough night last night. Two massive missiles made it past the interceptors and landed in Dimona and Arad, in the southern part of Israel. 175 people were injured, and many homes were destroyed. Psalm 23 has never felt more real, especially the part about walking through the Valley of the Shadow of Death....Despite the massive amount of damage and injuries, no one was killed in the missile attacks last night. This is a miracle!
     On 3/29 Chaim writes, “This week is a pivotal moment for both the Jewish people and for Christians around the world. For Jewish families, they will be sitting around the table remembering the Exodus out of Egypt and the deliverance from an evil regime that sought to enslave and destroy them. For us as believers, we also remember the cup, the covenant, and the ultimate sacrifice that took place on Passover. When Yeshua was sitting with His disciples in the Upper Room, He lifted up the cup. (Chaim explains the cups in the Passover Sedar each reflecting the promises of God in Exodus 6:6-7...and the fifth cup Yeshua lifted in Luke 22:20, "the new covenant in My blood.")vner Boskey at FinalFrontier/ David's Tent writes, Agent Smith and Amalek: "Spiritual blindness is not uncommon – it raises its fuzzy head in every generation. Sometimes it manifests itself through materialism, at other times through narcissism. In our day it has chosen the red-black-and-green banner of anti-Semitism which is sweeping its way across international borders. Hatred of the Jewish people and their homeland are poisonous weeds which are sprouting up all across the planet. The spiritual forces which led to the rise of the Third Reich have come back … and are spreading like the plague across the Western world."

Avi and Chaya Mizrachi of Dugit Messianic Outreach Ministry report that the annual Bat Zion Women’s Conference, although postponed due to war restrictions, is continuing in preparations for when it can be held. For now, with grandchildren playing happily in their bomb shelter, the distribution center continuing preparing Passover food supplies for the needy, and pray vigils continuing, "We continue to pray for our beloved nation - for divine protection over every life during this time of war. We trust that God is at work, performing wonders and miracles even now. We invite you to stand with us in support and prayer." Avi writes, "We sense a national prayer rising quietly from many hearts: 'Lord, help us. Protect us. Save us.' We do not know what the near future holds, but we stand firm in the knowledge that our God fights our battles and protects us."

Youval & Valerie Yanay of Revive Israel write their team are "Still Serving, Still Preparing, Still Praying” | Watch this short VIDEO | “With everything happening around us, there is a growing awareness of how much we need Him, not just for protection, but for clarity, for peace, and for direction. In moments where things feel uncertain, we are reminded again that He is the One who holds it all, and our place is to remain close to Him. Even with the sirens, we went back this week to spending time with the autistic adults we serve. We stay close to shelter and remain aware, but there is something about continuing in what God has given us that brings a quiet steadiness, not because everything is calm, but because He is present. Passover is coming, and it carries more weight this year.
     “Earlier this week, Rafael and Youval spent time in the desert with other leaders. When they returned, they shared about the unity they experienced. It wasn’t something organized or forced, but a genuine coming together to seek the Lord, to listen, and to stand before Him in this time.”

Ariel & Shayla Hyde of Tree of Life Israel Ministries write, "During this war with Iran, God is doing something unexpected here in Israel – Israelis are contacting us and sharing that they already came to faith in Jesus, Yeshua, and want help with the next steps!"  Read the full text of this letter online (scroll down) and access their VIDEO: 7 New Israeli Believers: Special War Update.

Guy Cohen of the Harvest of Asher congregation in Acco writes, “During the Passover prayers in the synagogue, Psalm 114:1-8 is read. Looking at it in a Messianic light, we experience one of the most powerful psalms....It is not just a poetic song but a declaration....the world is subject to the will of the Lord and that it responds to His word. The reality of this truth is fully expressed in the events of the Exodus from Egypt....the destroyer passed through the land of Egypt, passing over the houses of the Hebrews which were marked with the blood of the sacrificial lamb. This was not coincidence but a miracle directed of God's design, an expression of His covenant and mercy....From a Believer's understanding, this principle continues to exist....
     Such is the case with a member of our congregation who lives in Nahariya. A missile struck outside his home while he sat inside the house. According to all the physical data and logically speaking when looking at the great amount of destruction that took place, it could have ended in a heavy disaster. But a miracle happened, contrary to every expectation, he came out of the event with a light injury to his leg. This is not coincidence but a miracle, a testimony that the God of Israel acts also today....As we approach the feast of Passover, the feast of redemption and miracles, we remember that what was then can happen also today.

Marianne Gol of the widows & orphans ministry Streams in the Desert, writes, “The events of recent days have brought very real life-and-death situations that have deeply stirred our hearts. In these moments, we see more clearly than ever the protection and mercy of God. We are grateful to share that all of our families are safe. One of our families in Arad experienced a devastating loss—their home was completely destroyed by an Iranian ballistic rocket. Yet, by God’s grace, their lives were spared. We do not take this lightly. We stand in awe of His protection and give thanks with full hearts…. During these days, we appreciate even more the love and partnership of the Body of Messiah. With thanksgiving, we testify to different manifestations of the One New Man in action.

Michael Beener of City of Life in Sderot sends this VIDEO: Passover, the Wilderness, Why is God leading you there? | “For safety, the planned concert for elderly residents is canceled, but our outreach continues with supermarket vouchers and Passover sets, delivered to those at our center and to those who prefer to stay home, bringing encouragement and a reminder of God’s protection.”

 Leon Mazin, Return to Zion congregation in Haifa, wrote on 3/29, “Before God moves His people forward, He often steadies them first. He does not prepare us through noise, but through trust, quietness, and renewed attention to His presence. Here in Haifa, the day carries a fitting atmosphere for that kind of reflection—partly cloudy, cool, with showers passing through and then increasing sunshine. It feels like the land itself is in preparation. That is a helpful reminder for all of us: not every holy transition begins with clarity; sometimes it begins with cleansing, patience, and peace. May the Lord settle your heart today, and prepare you gently for all that this season is meant to awaken.”

From the team led by Moti Cohen at Tiferet Yeshua congregation in Tel Aviv, “These have been tough days for the people of Israel marked by fear, exhaustion and uncertainty. As we find ourselves making preparations for Passover in the shadow of war, I want to share some testimonies from our team about how God has intervened and brought them into a deeper place with Him through these difficult and often terrifying times.” Read online.  “When there’s No Bomb Shelter.” There are tens of thousands of Israelis who cannot get to a bomb shelter, this deals with some examples of that. “In the Fear and Exhaustion, God breaks in” Read about prayers for a 20 year old daughter working a night shift when three missiles impacted Tel Aviv. And “An Invitation to the Garden of Gethsemane” – “When we understand that God’s main desire for us is to grow and mature in our love for Him and for others, sooner or later we discover that suffering is part of it.”

Shlomy and Miriam Abramov of Awake Israel write on Passover, “We are down at the sea which we live pretty close to. Several  Israelis are out today. Attacks were during the night mostly until now. It’s nice to see faces we are praying for. God keeps saving the people daily in miracles! Your prayers! Today we shared Yeshuas gospel hope 7 Times today on Passover. He is our Passover. Yeah!!!!!

Avi and Hannah Tekle of Tents of Mercy in Kiryat Yam quote a perfect verse even on a Passover of bombs dropping right and left: "So the children of Israel ... kept the Feast of Unleavened Bread seven days with great gladness..." (2 Chronicles 30:21) "We are excited to share with you this video update on our Passover food parcel outreach. Carrying out this project while in the midst of an ongoing and challenging season of war was no small feat. But we are so grateful to God for His continued faithfulness, provision, and protection over our community and partners. Your generosity is bringing hope and tangible care to families in need during this important holiday. Thank you for standing with us and making this work possible, and for your continued prayers for divine protection over the Land.

Aleksey Raikhstadt of the old Jaffa Beit Immanuel Congregation writes, “In this season, we are reminded that Passover points us to the greater redemption we have in Yeshua the Messiah, the Lamb who was given for us so that we could truly be set free....this year is different for us. We had hoped to spend this evening gathered together as a congregational family, sharing this story in person, encouraging one another, and reflecting together on God’s ultimate plan of redemption. However, the reality of the situation here has made that difficult, and like many across the land, we will be celebrating in individual homes.  These are not simple days. Here in Israel, the reality of war and uncertainty is something we are walking through in a very real and personal way. At the same time, we continue to hold on to the truth that God is faithful, that He has not forgotten His promises, and that He is still moving, even in the midst of difficulty....Thank you for your faithfulness, your prayers, and your continued support for Israel and for our congregation, Beit Immanuel. We are truly grateful. 

Jennifer Guetta of Plant Hope Israel wrote about Passover on 3/26, “Passover is a celebration of God's deliverance and miracles! On Wednesday evening, the 1st of April, all of Israel will remember the great miracles that God has done in the past to set us free. It is also the original day on which Jesus laid down His life for us, and God opened the way for salvation. We are praying for all to know the true freedom of the Messiah. Jesus paid the price for our freedom and gave His life for us. Because of His suffering, He has already achieved victory over the darkness. We are also praying for God to break through during this war and deliver His people, Israel, and the Iranian people.
     A table set in the midst of our enemies | In these prophetic end-times, God is preparing a beautiful wedding table for His people. It’s a set table with abundance and goodness. At His table, we are all one, brothers and sisters in unity. He anoints our head with oil, and our cup runneth over.

 Kobi & Shani Ferguson of Maoz Ministries write, “For centuries, Christians have pledged their loyalty to the Gospel above everything else. But how many believers have taken the time to really study what the Gospel actually IS?
     Much debate has been going on recently as to whether Christians should or shouldn’t support Israel by default. The arguments span all the way from “Absolutely yes!” to “Israel is the source of all evil.” The reality is, Israel as a nation and people have had good kings and bad kings. So what is the responsibility of the nations before the Lord - the God of Israel?

     We’re here to dive deep with you into the starting point of every Christian’s theology: What exactly is the New Covenant?  The answer might surprise many believers. Sometimes the most important truths in Scripture are not hidden, they are simply the parts few people take time to study.
