Raising up a Habitation for the Lord in Ashdod

 

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

The day for building your walls will come, the day for extending your boundaries.

Micah 7:11

In the book of Micah chapter 7, we read how the Lord spoke through the prophet Micah about Israel’s resurrection and restoration from a state of desolation and despair. Through the words of the prophet God paints a vivid picture of just how far the nation of Israel had fallen, but He also makes a powerful proclamation of how the nation would rise again from its ruined state. In verse 11 Micah prophecies that the day will come for Israel to build her walls and to extend her boundaries.

This is not just a reference to a physical revival, but also a spiritual revival. How wonderful to realize that we are living in the very days that the prophet spoke about! Not only have we been experiencing the physical restoration of Israel over the last 75 years, but also the even more important spiritual restoration of the nation. There are more believers and congregations now in Israel than ever before, and the numbers are increasing exponentially.

Preparing habitations for the Lord across Israel is therefore of the utmost importance in order for the unsaved to hear the Gospel message, for new believers to be discipled and enjoy the unity of the Spirit, as well as a home base from which evangelists and pastors can be sent out into the nation. The fields are white for harvest, and the time has come for the workers to be sent forth into the fields.

Our new building in Ashdod is such a place. This congregational building will serve as both a place of worship for hundreds of Israelis every week, as well as a revival centre where Israeli believers and the youth will be discipled, leaders and ministers will be raised up, and from which new congregations pioneered! In addition, this building will serve as a venue for impacting conferences, seminars, Bible school, and Biblical training courses.

We have already taken some major steps, such as painting the venue, reinforcing the walls, hiring an interior designer, making repairs to the floors and ceiling, installing security doors and fences, as well as ordering all of the windows (floor-to-ceiling windows for the auditorium, casement windows for the foyer, staircase, and first-floor lobby) and we are currently in the process of constructing the front stage and rigging.

Would you prayerfully consider partnering with us and sowing a seed of any amount towards this important project? Stand with us today and become a custodian of revival in Israel!

Thank you and God bless!

Hebrew Word of the Week:
Ani Hu (אֲנִי הוּא) —

We live in a world where so much can change without warning. Plans change, circumstances change, people change, and sometimes things we thought were secure suddenly become uncertain. When that happens, our attention naturally goes to the problem in front of us.  We want to know what will happen, how God will answer, and what […]

When God Speaks of Zion:
His Protection, His Peace, His Blessing Over You

“Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion! For He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed your children within you.” Psalm 147:12–13 Jerusalem is a city the whole world seems to have an opinion about. For more than three thousand years, kingdoms have fought over her, nations have watched […]

Praying for you from Biblical Jaffa:
God still has the final Word

Shalom from Jaffa—biblical Joppa, one of the ancient cities of Israel and a place where remarkable events recorded in Scripture unfolded. As I stand here today, I am praying for you. I may not know exactly what you are facing as you read these words, what situation you have been bringing before the Lord, or what has […]

The beginning they didn’t expect
Finding new life in Israel

Anna had only recently made Aliyah with her three children. As a single mother, she was beginning again in Israel with a 20-year-old son and two daughters, sixteen and five—new surroundings, a new rhythm of life, and so much still uncertain. Then, during one of our recent times together with new Olim, our team began […]

Six lives changed in Biblical Jaffa

They had made Aliyah only two months earlier, and life in Israel was already weighing heavily on them. So when Irina found herself on a small bus heading toward Jaffa and asked what kind of excursion they had joined, our team gave her a simple answer: “We just want you to spend the day with […]

How will they hear?
Bringing the gospel within reach

There are Israelis who have lived their entire lives in the land of the Bible and have never once heard the Gospel clearly explained to them. They know the names of Abraham, Moses, David, and the prophets. They walk the same land where Yeshua lived and ministered. Many know His name—but know Him only as the […]
