Josie's Comment: Aliyah - Now is the Time to Come Home
Jeremiah
16:14-16 However, the days are coming says the Lord, "when men
will no longer say , As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the Israelites
up our of Egypt, but they will say As surely as the Lord lives, who brought the
Israelites up out of the land of the North and out of all the countries where
he had dispersed them, For I will restore them to the land I gave to their
forefathers. "
I have
attached an article that I wrote near the end of last year, on Aliyah.Click Here to read
Recently I was meditating about many things . As I was in that place, the
Lord showed me the picture of the Israelites after they had come out of Egypt
standing with the Red sea in front of them (and Moses with his rod ) and the
Egyptian army behind them . It looked like they were doomed !
They were trapped - they saw nothing with their natural eyes that gave
them hope of a deliverance. This was, however, the safest place for His
people to be in. They were about to see the greatest miracle and
release of God;s power in their lifetime. God was watching over them, to
perform His word, and make it known to the Egyptians that He is the God of
Israel.
Nothing is new today for those in Israel that were either born here in the land
of Israel or have made Aliyah from the nations. We again have the sea in
front of us (in this case the big beautiful Mediterranean sea ) and
behind us are all Israel's enemy nations. We are again in a place of what
looks like great danger, trapped even, hopeless, (for those that do not know
their God) but our God is about to once again display His supernatural
power and do extraordinary acts of greatness to deliver Israel and the
Jewish people from her arch enemies.
So what am I trying to say ? ....... Israel is the safest
place for Jews to be again, today, now ! . It may not look like it in the
natural . But we do not walk by sight or feelings, but we are called to walk by
faith. Faith is the substantiating of things hoped for the conviction of
things not seen. Mercy was what took place at the Red sea, and it
will be mercy again that will be poured out on the house of Israel in the days
ahead, combined with a manifestation of signs, wonders and supernatural acts,
which will be unprecedented in all of Israel's history. Therefore
the Jewish people need to be here in their land, to witness this move of God,
but for the sake of their physical well-being, to be where it is safe.
God is going to demonstrate His greatest acts here in Israel, not in the
nations. We as a people of God, the people of Israel need to trust,
believe and, and once again lift up our eyes and proclaim Psalm 123
Unto You I lift up my eyes, O You who dwell in the heavens. Behold as the eyes
of servants look to the hand of their masters, as the eyes of a maid to the
hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the Lord our God, until He has mercy
on us.
Would you consider circulating this article that I have attached to this
email . Maybe you have Jewish friends, (secular or Messianic) relatives,
neighbors, business associates. Probably many of you have a Jewish lawyer,
doctor or dentist. Perhaps you know Israeli Jews who left Israel to live
in what they think is the comfort and safety of the nations. If you do
then send or post them this article Maybe you have friends who are
prayers and intercessors who can pray and intercede for the Jewish people to
make Aliyah. Please forward this onto them . The time is now - the time
is urgent . Things can happen suddenly in our world today
..............
The Lord promised that when the Jewish people return they will increase as
they once increased (Zechariah 10:9)
Exodus 1:7 But the children of Israel were
fruitful and increased abundantly, multiplied and grew exceedingly mighty; and
the land was filled with them.
Exodus 1:12 But the more they (the Egyptians) afflicted them
the more they multiplied and grew. And they (the Egyptians ) were in
dread of the Children of Israel
Exodus 1:7
2 Sam 3:1-1
weaker.
As the nation of Israel continues to be afflicted, pressured,
threatened and cursed by the nations, may these times of affliction cause us to
grow strong, multiply and increase (Aliyah - ) and in turn cause dread on
those that oppress us. Aliyah will also ensure Israel to remain
demographically Jewish. The fulfilment of Aliyah is a reflection of the
awesome faithfulness of our Father in heaven. There is no doubt
that the birth and growth of the nation of Israel among the family of nations
is one of the greatest pieces of prophetic news that we have heard in this
century. We are looking through the Lord's prophetic lens.
2 Cor 4:8-9 We are hard pressed on every side, yet not crushed; we
are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down,
but not destroyed ......
The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by
standing in defense of her right to exist on the land given to the Jewish
people by the God of Israel. Lets pray that Israel will turn back to
their God. Do not be silent, but share this with your fellow Christians,
share it with your pastors, and with anyone you have a chance to speak to. Lets
also pray for that breakthrough to the Muslims, and please remember to
pray for all of the soldiers in the IDF -they are defending and fighting for
the Kingdom of God.
Shabbat Shalom ... David & Josie
