Supporting Israel

 Jerusalem Prayer Team
update by Mike Evans

"URGENT: We are in urgent need of funds for war protection efforts through the Operations Center at your Jerusalem World Center and the Jerusalem bomb shelter/community center. Will you please send an emergency gift today?

My friend of more than 30 years, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has given a stern warning to anyone who attacks Israel—whether Syria, Iran, Egypt or a terrorist group. He promised that Israel will respond swiftly to any such strike against its people. Many times, Mr. Netanyahu has told me how much he appreciates the prayers and support of Christians around the world—and I am asking you to stand with him and with Israel once again today.

Your gift today to help us create a lighthouse of true Christian love is a blessing to Israel and to God's Chosen People at a time when they need it most, and I know that God will bless you according to His promise in Genesis 12:3. There is no question that Israel is facing serious threats and challenges. The Jerusalem Prayer Team is uniquely positioned to help meet the urgent needs of the Jewish People at this crisis moment. Because of our long history of meeting needs in Israel, the people there know we can be trusted and depended upon to respond. I need your help today to meet this crisis need.

When you support the Jerusalem Prayer Team as we stand with and for the Jewish People, you are in agreement with God's heart. You are supporting and blessing “the apple of His eye.” And because of that, you WILL receive His blessing! And your support is so urgently needed right now as the clouds of war loom darker every day.

Today you can fulfill the prophetic Word of God to bring a light to the nation of Israel by helping the Jerusalem Prayer Team build the first Christian museum in the nation of Israel. When tens of thousands of Jewish people go through the Righteous Gentile Heritage Center to hear the story of Christian love for the first time ever, you will be fulfilling prophecy; they will call you “blessed.” Please do your very best today to help us make this wonderful dream come true.

This story can only be told with your help. We must make the next payment today. So far 1,975 friends have given $189,130. That means we still need $60,870. Please join me right now in praying a commanded blessing on every friend who takes part in this effort.
        For your gift of any amount…

We will send you this Prayer Card Pouch.

Designed especially for members of the Jerusalem Prayer Team, this is a great way to keep track of both what you are praying for and how God has answered your prayers.

   
        With your gift of $40 or more…

We will send you the prayer card pouch and this ornate mezuzah.

For centuries Jewish people have placed mezuzahs by the door of their homes in obedience to God's command. This beautiful piece is both a link to a great heritage of faith and a wonderful reminder of your commitment to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

   
        With your gift of $100 or more…

We will send you the prayer card pouch and this “Comfort Ye My People” afghan.

This beautiful, full-color afghan features the command of God found in Isaiah 40:1 and will be a lovely addition to your home or office.

   
        With your gift of $250 or more…

We will send you the prayer card pouch and this stunning Torah Scroll.

In addition, your name or the name of someone you wish to honor will be placed on a special Scroll of Honor in the Righteous Gentile Heritage Center.

   
Perhaps you would be able to do even more.
    With your gift of $1000 or more…

We will send you the prayer card pouch and this large silver-trimmed Yemenite shofar.

I have one of these in my office, and it is amazing. We will also place your name or the name of someone special you wish to honor or remember in the Hall of Righteous Gentiles in the Jerusalem World Center.

"Four rockets from Lebanon fired into Israel "

 donate online
 Jerusalem Prayer Team
update by Mike Evans

"Residents of northern Israel remain on heightened alert after the first terrorist attack in the region in quite some time. Four rockets were fired into Israel from Lebanon this week, and a group aligned with Al Qaeda claimed responsibility for the attack. Israel is surrounded by enemies on every side, and the Jerusalem Prayer Team is doing everything we can to help.

The largest bomb shelter in Israel for Holocaust survivors is also a community center where they receive food, clothing, transportation and even medicines—and it's all because of your support. It has air conditioning, television, Internet, phones and a lovely kitchen...and we are working right now to improve it by providing a motorized chair for the stairs and many other upgrades. We will have a wonderful party there next month during the Feast of Tabernacles for these precious people, but we can't do it without your help.

Today you can fulfill the prophetic Word of God to bring a light to the nation of Israel by helping the Jerusalem Prayer Team build the first Christian museum in the nation of Israel. When tens of thousands of Jewish people go through the Righteous Gentile Heritage Center to hear the story of Christian love for the first time ever, you will be fulfilling prophecy; they will call you “blessed.” Please do your very best today to help us make this wonderful dream come true.

This story can only be told with your help. We must make the next payment by September 1st. So far 1,340 friends have given $124,755. That means we still need $125,245. Please join me right now in praying a commanded blessing on every friend who takes part in this effort.
        For your gift of any amount…

We will send you this “Peace and Prosperity Door Plate.”

Cast in solid pewter, the plate features Psalm 122:6 “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.” Proudly displayed on the doorpost of your home, it will serve as a daily reminder that the blessings of God will surround your life as you “Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.”

   
        With your gift of $30 or more…

We will send you the pewter door plate and this Star of David Mizpah necklace.

Mizpah jewelry is a symbol of heartfelt trust, friendship, good will and love between two people. You can share one half of your necklace with a loved one, a friend, or a family member. Or if you prefer, you can have us send you one half of the necklace and designate the other half to be given, on your behalf, to a Jewish person in Jerusalem whose life has been powerfully impacted through your faithful prayers and support of the Jerusalem Prayer Team. No matter which option you choose, we know that you will love this beautiful necklace!

     With your gift of $100 or more…

We will send you the pewter door plate and this Garden of Gethsemane prayer shawl.

The Garden of Gethsemane was a favorite prayer spot for Jesus, and this beautiful prayer shawl is a link to the ancient Jewish roots of our faith. It is our gift to express our gratitude for your support as we stand with and for Israel.
With your gift of $250 or more…

We will send you the pewter door plate and this stunning Torah Scroll.

We must continue working on the Righteous Gentiles Heritage Center. This wonderful museum will be a witness of love and hope to the Jewish people from the Holy City until the Lord returns, but we must complete the project. We must raise the remaining half of the funds for the fourth floor and make the second payment of $411,500 by today. It is critical that we keep on schedule; the grand opening is scheduled for September 2014, and the nation of Israel is already talking about this unprecedented witness of Christian love. Your gift today will be matched dollar for dollar, so we must raise $205,750. So far 1,540 loving friends have given $166,035 which will be doubled to $332,070. That means we still need $39,715.
        For your gift of any amount…

We will send you this beautiful Psalm 91 print and a matching bookmark.

I know these beautiful words will strengthen and encourage your faith.

   
        With your gift of $50 or more…

We will send you the print and bookmark and this lovely Touching the Hem of His Garment figurine.

Few stories in Scripture demonstrate faith in action better than the woman who believed she would be healed if she could just touch the hem of Jesus' robe. You will enjoy displaying this piece in your home or office.

   
        With your gift of $100 or more…

We will send the print and bookmark and a copy of the Jerusalem World Center Study Bible.

Prepared especially for members of the Jerusalem Prayer Team, this beautifully bound King James Version features special study helps and notes that I know you will use again and again, including a concordance, center-column reference, Messianic Prophecies of the Old Testament, Miracles and Parables of our Lord, and much more.

   
Remember that your gift today will be doubled by the matching gift offer to do twice as much to help us reach this urgent goal.

Christian ministry in Jerusalem- update

 donate online
 Jerusalem Prayer Team
update by Mike Evans

"Yesterday, I had breakfast with my prayer partner for the past thirty-three years, former Secretary of the Interior James Watt. He held this position during the Reagan administration. In this office, Jim was asked to swear in new members of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Council at the Holocaust Living Memorial in Washington, D.C. One of those present at the time was Dr. Elie Wiesel. I want to share with you some of what Jim said:

“The story of the Holocaust is frightening. The story does not start with the criminal torture of you and the destruction of the Jewish people. It came first with an attack on the moral and spiritual values of life. The German people were conditioned to hate and be intolerant to the Jewish people before the methodic killing and destruction of human life. Good people lived in the towns nearby, but they did not get involved to stop Auschwitz. They did not concern themselves with Dachau nor any other place of human destruction. The apathy and non-involvement of the good people, the Church people in Nazi government activities in the 1930s, made it easy not to smell the burning stench of human flesh in the 1940s.

“Ignoring discrimination in the 30s allowed the good people, the Church people to be closed to the realities of torture, murder, and abuse in the 40s. The surprise of the Hitler era was not that one man could be so evil, but that so many good people could do nothing. How could the German Church live with all the evidence that would point to the massacre of six million Jews? How could good people live in the towns nearby, smelling the stench, and not do something about it? How could they see the thousands of people hauled by train or marching through their towns never to return, and not do something about it? How could they live next door to people who worked in those institutions of death without doing something about it? How could they worship in their churches within eye-view of the concentrations camps and not do something about it?

“The Simon Wiesenthal Holocaust Memorial Holocaust Center in Los Angeles has on one of its walls a picture of one survivor of a German death camp, pointing with shame to pictures of the world’s political and religious leaders of the 1930s and 40s. Below the picture of the survivor are the words which have been seared in my mind forever, ‘Here is to the world that did not care; those who had ears but did not hear; those who had eyes, but did not see; those who had mouths but would not speak.’”

These are the words of Secretary Watt, my beloved prayer partner. He understands the importance of what we are doing at the Righteous Gentile Heritage Center in Jerusalem. We are telling the narratives of real Christians who did something while risking their very lives—as did the ten Boom family. Unfortunately, many of the Jewish people have never heard these stories. Through the grace of God and your generosity, they will.

Today you and I have been chosen by God to stand in defense of Israel. The Jewish people are under attack and facing threats on every side. They need to know that they are not alone—that their Christian friends around the world are standing with them. That is why we are working so hard on the Righteous Gentile Heritage Center.

We have been given a one-week extension to raise the remaining half of the funds for the fourth floor and make the second payment of $411,500. It is critical that we keep on schedule; the grand opening is scheduled for September 2014, and the nation of Israel is already talking about this unprecedented witness of Christian love.

"This touch from God changed my life, and it will change yours "

 Jerusalem Prayer Team
update by Mike Evans

"More than fifty years ago, Jesus appeared to a nearly-dead 11-year-old boy (me) who had been strangled and left for dead by his own father. When I saw Jesus, my life was transformed. In an instant, I was healed from a stomach ulcer, and my stuttering stopped forever. The fears that had bound me were scattered away, and a sense of peace overwhelmed me. I didn't know everything then that I know now, but I knew I had been touched by the hand of God.

Today I am praying for that transforming touch on your life. I am asking God to respond with a Divine miracle blessing- the Aaronic blessing that will cover you from the crown of your head to the soles of your feet- as you bless His Chosen People. When you sow a seed, even during a time of famine, you will reap His harvest.

I am asking God for a miracle...both for your life and needs, and for the Righteous Gentile Heritage Center. There is no question that God is working in this project. It is His purpose and His timing. Jerusalem is Ground Zero for spiritual warfare in our world today. It is the target of the enemy, and it is vital that you and I do our part to not only pray for the peace of Jerusalem, but to support Israel's right to her capital city.

Will you help the Jerusalem Prayer Team bless Israel and encourage the Jewish people with your gift for the Righteous Gentiles Heritage Center? We have been given an extension to raise the remaining half of the funds for the fourth floor and make the second payment of $411,500.

God’s deliverance from ALL your fears

update by Mike Evans

"I read in Jeremiah 1:10, 12, 14, and 17 during my devotions: "See, I have this day set thee over the nations and over the kingdoms, to root out, and to pull down, and to destroy, and to throw down, to build, and to plant.... for I will hasten my word to perform it.... Out of the north an evil shall break forth.... be not dismayed at their faces." In verse 8, Jeremiah wrote, "For I am with thee to deliver thee." Verse 19 records, "They shall fight against you; but they shall not prevail against you: for I am with you, says the LORD, to deliver you."

Please stand on that scripture today. I know what it is to be afraid of faces. As a child, I was so fearful that I would not look anyone in the face. I walked with my head bowed all the time. I could not even look at my father because of fear, but God delivered me from all my fears.

Many years ago, God spoke to me to go to the north of Israel where Hezbollah was entrenched in Lebanon to preach the Gospel. I was told by Israeli intelligence that if I did that, I would be killed. I knew the Lord had sent me and would protect me…and He did. After preaching the Gospel in Sidon, I went down to Beirut to distribute Gideon Bibles to the Marines and share the Word and pray with them. That night, as I slept on the beachhead, I thought about an 18-year-old Marine from Wooster, Massachusetts, whom I had led to Christ. His last words to me that evening had been, "Please tell Mom that her prayer has been answered. I've given my life to the Lord as my personal Savior."



Early the next morning, the area was rocked by a huge explosion as Hezbollah terrorists targeted the barracks with a truck bomb. Two hundred forty-one troops were killed in the attack. We left Beirut in the Avis vehicle which I had rented in Jerusalem. Driving down a dirt road towards Israel, we came under fire from terrorist organizations in the area. As 135mm shells fell around the car, I realized ours was the only vehicle on the road, and it was a rental car with distinctive Jerusalem license plates. Spotlights were playing across the vehicle as night descended. We ran out of gasoline, and it looked as if we would be killed.

As we prayed, a young man who looked Arabic knocked on the window and held up a can of gasoline. There were no homes or villages near where we had coasted to a stop. He poured the container of gas into the vehicle, came back to the window, and pointed to the button. I unlocked the door, and he climbed into the car. Without saying a word, he pointed in the direction we were to drive and calmly led us 32 kilometers to the border of Israel. There is no way I could have found it without his help. A few yards before the border, he held up his hand indicating that I should stop. He opened the door and stepped out of the car. The colonel at the border said to me, "I informed the prime minister's office that you had died. I didn't think there was any possibility you could have survived."

I turned and pointed to the man who had saved our lives and said, "We are alive because of him." No one was there! You will never know how many angels God has assigned to protect you, the amazing things they have done on your behalf and will do even today. Those who fight against you shall not prevail, for the Lord is with you to deliver you.

We have three days left on our extension to raise the remaining half of the funds for the fourth floor and make the second payment of $411,500.
