"We live in the “Me Generation,” where secular humanists, even in the pulpit, have fanned the flames of narcissism, hedonism, and self-gratification. The United States has never had so much stuff and been so unhappy. Millions are looking within for happiness, but the only problem is that doesn't work. You were not self-created; you can't tell yourself the purpose for which you were created. There is great truth in the words: “Look around and be distressed; look within and be depressed; look to Jesus and be at rest.”
We are hard at work with our Jerusalem team members who are bringing together the plans for the Operations Center on the Ambassador Floor. This will be the headquarters for all we will do in Israel. I signed the contracts by faith, believing that God will provide. The same God that parted the Red Sea and brought down the walls of Jericho will help us meet this great need.
Victor Frankl, a Jewish neurologist/psychiatrist, was given the opportunity to leave Nazi Germany for the United States. He chose to stay because of the commandment of the Bible, “Honor your father and mother.” In the concentration camp, most of his family perished, but Frankl survived. In his book, A Search for Meaning, honored by the Library of Congress, he states: “If man knows the why of his existence, he can bear almost any how.” Corrie ten Boom found that to be true in her life while she was also imprisoned by the Nazis.
A Gallup Poll revealed that 40 percent of Americans do not think their lives have a clear sense of purpose or are neutral about the question. Frankl's study revealed that living a meaningful life corresponds with being a giver, not a taker, and that happiness without meaning is characterized by a relatively shallow, self-absorbed, even selfish life. I know you are a giver who loves and cares for others—especially the Jewish people and the nation of Israel, and today I am asking you to be part of something special to bless them.
We have a huge opportunity right now to touch the world from the Holy City through the construction and equipping of our new Operations Center in the Jerusalem World Center. This will be the command and control center for everything we do, including organizing help for victims of terror, Holocaust survivors, and every possible need we can help meet. Our goal is based on the prophetic word of the Lord: “Comfort ye, comfort ye, My people, saith your God” (Isaiah 40:1).
The team that will operate and manage all of these outreaches (and more in the future) is being assembled. We have legal, management, property development, construction, programming, and other staff—and they must have a place to work. The fifth floor of your Jerusalem World Center will be the Operations Center…but we have only eight weeks to make this happen so we can stay on schedule for everything that is to follow.
The budget for the Operations Center—including construction, furnishing, equipment and everything we need to get it up and fully running—is one million Israeli shekels…$275,000 US. I am asking you and every friend of the Jerusalem Prayer Team to respond today to help us meet this urgent need. Everything we are going to do in and through the Jerusalem World Center depends on getting the Operations Center up and running. So far 455 loving friends have given $36,120 toward this prophetic goal. Please join me right now in praying a blessing on their lives according to the promise of Genesis 12:3.
Your support of the Jerusalem Prayer Team today allows us to continue our work on the Righteous Gentile Heritage Center, to stand up and speak out for Israel, and to meet urgent humanitarian needs among the poor Jewish people living in Israel. Thank you so much for being part of this vital worldwide prayer movement.
Barukh atah Adonai eloheinu melekh ha-olam, ozier Yisrael bigvurah.
Blessed art thou, Lord our God, King of the universe, who girds Israel with might.
Your ambassador to Jerusalem,
Dr. Mike Evans"

Jewish people need a Redeemer
Behind the curtains of Jewish faith.
Looking at the hope of the awaited Messiah when the whole Israel will live in a 'peaceful perfect land' - is such a long awaited dream - times of the great things on earth, and -sadly saying-mainly to those who will be alive at that time.. There is much more we should expect!
We wait and wait, yet forget we all have a free will and are not free of sin, we tend to harm each other very easily and not always make the best choices. How can we expect with such nature to have a 'paradise' on earth anywhere? Do we hope that in another hundred years people would get 'smart enough' and give up any evil action, any evil thought, any selfish desires? We tend to believe that one day the whole evil world will change 'magically' into a good one and people will be able to live happily ever after. Let's look at ourselves how long can we endure ' being good' and not allowing any selfish evil thought into our heart, no anger and no irritation, we will just love each other no matter what...
There is no 'magic' in changing peoples hearts. We are what we are and that's why we need a Redeemer, a Savior! His involvement in our lives is what changes our hearts! This is what God promised through different prophets that one day He would send a Redeemer. A Savior whose mission is not just to create a 'peaceful world' with evil people who are dying but with people whose hearts will be cleansed by Him.
As`soon as the sin entered the world, Adam and Eve were removed from a paradise. Death entered the world and other bad things we know as the result of sin. The only way to be free from eternal death is through promised Redeemer. We can't limit the Redeemer to the earthly things only. What is he going to accomplish is much more than gathering all Israel into their land, building the Temple and bring peace on earth.
Isaiah 65;17 "For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind."
Isaiah 25;8 "He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord has spoken it."
God is the God of love and justice. He didn't create us with the purpose of a short time as if He was watching an TV opera on earth in which you are alive in only one episode, and then the others replace you after you die. He is the author of everlasting life and created us for the fellowship with him. We are created for a purpose. Our earthly life is to get to know Him! Only He offers us the way out of sin and out of eternal death!!
That is why Christ's accomplishments are beyond the earthly things!
Even David was holding to God of fellowship and to hope of everlasting life. David knew that the things God was going to accomplish through Christ were more than expectations relating to earthly life.
Psalm 37;28
"For the LORD loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. They will be protected forever, but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off;"
Psalm 41;13
"Because of my integrity you uphold me and set me in your presence forever."
Psalm 49;16 "But God will redeem my life from the grave; he will surely take me to himself."
God put eternity in our hearts because`He created us with the purpose so that we would live with Him forever. But not in our sinful nature. We need to be redeemed .We need a Redeemer who will set us free from our sin. About our Redeemer God has been telling throughout years through different prophets.
In God's grace a Savior is for every sinner.
From the Scriptures we know that the great fathers of the history were saved by faith,God justified them based on their faith. Although many of them failed and sin was present in their lives, they were justified by God's grace. Jacob cheated his brother out of his dad's promised blessing.
Isaiah admitted his sinful nature after he saw His glory saying
" Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts. " then he was cleansed by God. "And he laid it upon my mouth, and said, Lo, this has touched thy lips; and thine iniquity is taken away, and thy sin purged." Isaiah 6;5
David sinned with Bathsheba, Salomon was in sin deceived by many women. Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness, and he was called God's friend. These people were saved by God's grace.
We all are under the same condition! If not God's grace, nothing would save us as nobody is righteous enough to stand before The Holy One and survive. God's grace is free but it cost God a lot to pay for our redemption. He is the One who had to pay the price of our sin or else would be all a subject to His judgement. Sending a Savior wasn't costless.
We usually imagine a Savior as a great mighty hero a great politician who will impose his power over sinful people and force them to be good. It is not like that. God doesn't force people, He wants a change of heart. A Savior is to deal with our sinful heart. First- redemption from sin, before we can expect any peaceful future God is talking about in the Scriptures!
We have to be forgiven and start with a clean new heart!
Christ was to take the penalty for our sin and that is what he did!
Do we have a right to reject the only one person in the history that manifested power over death and life witnessed by thousands? Many hide behind the words " he is just not ours to consider") yet thousands of people all over the world accept Christ's forgiveness and find peace in heart. Christ is real.
A simple prayer would help, ask God for His revelation of the truth with open and honest heart. Does your pride not allow you to believe that God would send His Son to wipe our sins away? As the perfect picture of that event to come was Abraham asked by God to offer his son. God put Abraham to test to show what would come in the future and how hard is it for the Father to offer his son.
That is how much are redemption was to cost as God was to offer His own Son for us.
Isaiah 53 ;11 is claimed that it talks about Israel yet verse 11 clearly states it is about God's Savior for us ;
"He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities."
It says ' he shall justify many, he shall bear their iniquities"
How would Israel justify others, bear their iniquities?
V 12." (...)numbered with the transgressors, and He bore the sin of many,and made intercession for the transgressors."
Can the nation be called ' righteous servant' where God is grieving over it's sin in every century? There is no righteous nation on this earth before God!
A nation can't redeem others from their sin!
People have to come to God in person for forgiveness, everybody is responsible for himself, Israel's nation can't justify others before God. A nation is not a Savior!!
God is not going to put up with peoples sin forever. Those who are rejecting His forgiveness, they will be a subject to judgement. God is holy and will judge every sin. But God is also love and mercy and knows that nobody would stood up righteous before him. That is why He is giving us a Savior to redeem us from our sin. His Son has already paid a high price to buy us out. He paid the high price by death for us, as the wages of sin is death. Come to him in prayer.
God said ' Now is the time of salvation"
Christ said; " He that rejects me, and receives not my words, has one that judges him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day." (John 12;48)
"He that believes on the Son has everlasting life: and he that believes not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abides on him." (John 3;36)

" As I prayed for you this morning, God gave me this Scripture for you" - update by Mike Evans
Jerusalem Prayer Team
Donate online
“Dear Jesus...how foolish of me to have called for human help when You are here.” – Corrie ten Boom
"As I was praying for you this morning, the Lord spoke to me to encourage you and gave me this Scripture for you. “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6-7).
I know this promise is true! Years ago on Thanksgiving Day (which was also my 25th wedding anniversary), I was told that a terrorist was coming to kill me. My entire evangelistic team in the hotel was moved two floors down so they would be spared.
On my 40th birthday, I was told that a terrorist who had already killed two people, including a state trooper, had been arrested—with my name and address and a loaded gun on the front seat of his car.
In 1983 I preached to the Marines in Beirut, Lebanon, and gave them Bibles. A few hours later, a Hezbollah terrorist killed almost 250 of them. I was told I might never get out of Lebanon alive, but an angel of God delivered me.
I know what it is like to let the God of peace guard my heart and mind!
Please say this prayer with me out loud right now—the same prayer I said in those crisis times: “God is greater than I think. God is closer than I think. God is more committed than I think. God is more ambitious than I think.”
In the Mighty Name of Jesus, get up! Don't sit in the dust of your difficulties. Focus today on what you have left, not what you have lost... YOU can do ALL things though Christ who strengthens you!
I believe that God brought you and me together “for such a time as this”—to give our time and energy and effort and resources to stand for and defend Israel and the Jewish people. One of the greatest and most important things that the purchase of the Jerusalem World Center makes possible is the Christian Zionist Heritage Center. The story of Christian love is a story that most Jewish people have never heard. We must tell the story—but we can’t do it without you. I urgently need your help today.
I am praying that God will give us 800 Jerusalem Prayer Team members by today to stand with us in honor of the 800 Jewish people that the ten Booms saved from the Holocaust. I am writing today to ask you to be one of those 800 with your gift to help us make the payment so that the work on the Christian Zionist Heritage Center can continue. So far 755 loving hearts have responded to this need by giving $61,290.
Watch Dr. Evans and Glenn Beck Tell The Story of Corrie Ten Boom
When you send your gift of $30 or more, we will send you Corrie ten Boom’s book The Hiding Place.
This is the riveting account of how Corrie ten Boom and her family were able to save many of God's chosen people during WW II. For 35 years, millions have seen that there is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still. Now, The Hiding Place, repackaged for a new generation of readers, continues to declare that God’s love will overcome, heal, and restore.
If you are able to send a gift of $100 or more, we will send you this lovely commemorative clock.
Because the ten Booms were watchmakers, even using clock advertisements in their window to send secret messages, this is a great way for you to remember, celebrate, and continue their work. Perfect for your home or office, everyone who sees this beautiful piece will know your love and commitment to God’s Chosen People.
We are excited about what will be accomplished through the Christian Zionist Heritage Center, but in order for it become a reality, we must quickly raise the funds so that the programming and design work can be done, and we can begin telling these wonderful stories. Please be as generous as you can when you send your gift today.

"Wars and rumors of wars " Israel
Update about Israel by Mike Evans

“My job was to simply follow His leading one step at a time, holding every decision up to Him in prayer.” – Corrie ten Boom
Jesus said that in the end times, we would hear of wars and rumors of wars. That sounds exactly like the headlines we are reading today. Just look at the last few days:
Israeli jets have struck military targets deep inside Syria as the civil war there threatens to overthrow the government of Bashir Assad—and brings great uncertainty about the fate of his chemical and biological weapons.
Iran’s President Ahmadinejad has declared that his nation is already a nuclear power.
Egyptian leaders are threatening to “amend” the terms of their peace treaty with Israel.
The Iranians continue to funnel thousands of missiles to Hamas and Hezbollah for use against Israel and the Jewish people.
All of these events and more highlight the vital and urgent need for prayer for the peace of Jerusalem. As we continue to pray faithfully and fervently for the safety and protection of Israel and the Jewish people, we must do so in faith. It is wonderful to know that no matter how difficult circumstances may be today—politically, socially, physically, emotionally, economically—our God reigns. Our future is bright. I've never been more aware of that than today.
I am praying that God will give us 800 Jerusalem Prayer Team members by today to stand with us in honor of the 800 Jewish people the that ten Booms saved from the Holocaust. Your generous gift today will take the story of Corrie ten Boom and her family—and the stories of hundreds of other loving Christians who helped and supported Israel and the Jewish people—to Jerusalem and the nation of Israel through the Christian Zionist Heritage Center.
However, we now must make the first payment to Disk-in Pro on their work as required by the contract. We have received the invoice for $450,000. I am writing today to ask you to be one of those 800 with your gift to help us make the payment so that the work on the Christian Zionist Heritage Center can continue. So far 755 loving hearts have responded to this need by giving $61,290.

I am praying that God will give us 800 Jerusalem Prayer Team members by today to stand with us in honor of the 800 Jewish people the that ten Booms saved from the Holocaust. Your generous gift today will take the story of Corrie ten Boom and her family—and the stories of hundreds of other loving Christians who helped and supported Israel and the Jewish people—to Jerusalem and the nation of Israel through the Christian Zionist Heritage Center.
However, we now must make the first payment to Disk-in Pro on their work as required by the contract. We have received the invoice for $450,000. I am writing today to ask you to be one of those 800 with your gift to help us make the payment so that the work on the Christian Zionist Heritage Center can continue. So far 755 loving hearts have responded to this need by giving $61,290.
Watch Dr. Evans and Glenn Beck Tell The Story of Corrie Ten Boom
When you send your gift of $30 or more, we will send you Corrie ten Boom’s book The Hiding Place.
This is the riveting account of how Corrie ten Boom and her family were able to save many of God's chosen people during WW II. For 35 years, millions have seen that there is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still. Now, The Hiding Place, repackaged for a new generation of readers, continues to declare that God’s love will overcome, heal, and restore.
If you are able to send a gift of $100 or more, we will send you this lovely commemorative clock.
Because the ten Booms were watchmakers, even using clock advertisements in their window to send secret messages, this is a great way for you to remember, celebrate, and continue their work. Perfect for your home or office, everyone who sees this beautiful piece will know your love and commitment to God’s Chosen People.
We are excited about what will be accomplished through the Christian Zionist Heritage Center, but in order for it become a reality, we must quickly raise the funds so that the programming and design work can be done, and we can begin telling these wonderful stories. Please be as generous as you can when you send your gift today.
Your gift of support for the Jerusalem Prayer Team as we stand with and for Israel and the Jewish people is your personal act of love and kindness to bless God’s Chosen People. Your gift today makes it possible for this great worldwide prayer movement to continue at this crucial and prophetic moment in history.
Modeh ani l’faneykha, melekh chai vekayam; rabbah emunatekha.
I thank you, living and eternal King; great is your faithfulness.

The little Jewish girl asked, “Does God live in that house?”
News from Jerusalem- update by Mike Evans

"Five years ago I had the privilege of speaking at the Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial when Casper and Betsie ten Boom were added to the Righteous among the Nations in recognition of their heroism and sacrifice in helping to save more than 800 Jews from the Holocaust. After the ceremony an elderly Jewish woman came up and spoke to me.
“They saved my life!” she said. “I was a little girl, and my mother took me to the ten Boom’s clock shop looking to hide us from the Nazis. She knocked on the door and an old man [Casper ten Boom] answered the door. My mother asked if he could help us. He said, ‘I must ask God’ and went back inside. I asked my mother, ‘Does God live in that house?’ She said, ‘I don’t know.’ In a few moments he came back and opened the door and took us inside. ‘God said Yes,’ he told us.” That precious true story was repeated time after time as the ten Boom family did their part to rescue as many Jewish people as they could from certain death.
When I prayed with Mother Teresa in Rome before she died, she said, “Lord, if we love you, we must love the Jewish people. Love is not something we say, it is something we do.” I have never forgotten those words. This Sunday is International Holocaust Remembrance Day, a day set aside to remember the six million Jewish people, over one million of them children—who perished during the Holocaust.
We are working to show this love in practical ways through our humanitarian outreaches to the poor of Israel. We are also working to share the true stories of Christian love from the past with the Jewish people for generations to come—stories like the amazing courage and sacrifice of the ten Boom family in Holland.
Since 1988 when I purchased and restored the ten Boom home with the help of our Jerusalem Prayer Team members, the doors have been open at no cost. Every dollar raised goes directly to that work. I am the Chairman of the Board, and I pay all of my own expenses—flights, meals and hotels—because this message must be told. It is the purest work we can do. And though we continue to tell this story in Holland, we must tell it in Israel as well. Your gift today will help us reach out and minister to the Jewish people and tell them and show them true Christian love.
When you send your gift of $30 or more today, we will send you a paperback copy of my newest novel, The Locket.
Set during the Holocaust, it is a gripping story of love, courage and loss. This book follows the life of a young Jewish girl who finds out that the “boy next door,” Adolf Eichmann, has grown up to be the architect of Hitler’s “Final Solution.” It will challenge and stir your heart…and it also makes a great gift for a friend or loved one. If you are able to send $80 or more, we will send you an autographed, hardback copy of The Locket.
And if you are able to send $100 or more, we will send you The Locket paperback copy and this beautiful color “Comfort Ye My People” afghan.
It is a lovely piece that will both decorate your home or office, as well as share your love for the Jewish people with all who see it.
Please be as generous as you can when you send your gift today. Your gift of support for the Jerusalem Prayer Team as we stand with and for Israel and the Jewish people is your personal declaration of “never again!” As we remember those who perished in the past, we must do everything in our power to ensure that this great tragedy is never repeated. Your gift makes it possible for this great worldwide prayer movement to continue at this crucial and prophetic moment in history.

The poor of Israel are crying out for help—will you answer their pleas?
Update Dr Mike Evans

"There are more than 200,000 Holocaust survivors living in Israel today. They have suffered great horrors, beyond what we can imagine. Now in their elderly years, many of them are struggling again with deep poverty. Thousands of them cannot afford to buy food, pay rent, purchase medicine and heat their tiny apartments. So they go hungry and sit and shiver in the cold of winter. This is a great tragedy. I am writing to ask if you will join me to put food on their tables and warm clothing on their backs today.
Together we can show our love for God by showing His love to the poor of the House of Israel. Today they are suffering greatly from the cold of winter. There is no good time to be poor. I remember vividly digging through dumpsters when I was a boy looking for something to eat. But during the winter the problem is even worse as cold adds to the suffering of hunger and sickness for those who do not have enough money to buy food, medicine and housing, and also pay for heat.
Together we can tell them—and more importantly show them—that they are not alone! My heart is breaking over this suffering. Because you love Israel and the Jewish people, I am asking you today to join me in helping us meet these urgent needs. Together we can provide urgently needed food, as well as warm blankets, coats and hats to the poor of Israel. Your gift today will be God’s arms of love wrapped around a shivering Jewish man, woman or child.
When you send your gift to bless the poor of Israel, we will send you these beautiful “Comfort Ye My People” note cards.
If you are able to send a gift of $40 or more, we will send you the note cards and this special plate designed especially for members of the Jerusalem Prayer Team.
If you are able to send a gift of $100 or more, we will send you the note cards and this lovely color “Comfort Ye My People” afghan.
It’s a great prayer reminder as well as a way to share your support for Israel with everyone who sees it.
The Bible says, “If you help the poor, you are lending to the LORD—and he will repay you!” (Proverbs 19:17, NLT) Today I am asking you to join with me in lending back to God part of the resources He has provided to you by helping the poor of Israel. It is brutally cold this winter, especially for those who cannot afford heat and warm water…but together we can show them that they are not forgotten or forsaken.
Your support of the Jerusalem Prayer Team allows us to meet urgent humanitarian needs of the poor of Israel, particularly for the elderly Holocaust survivors. These dear people have suffered so much, and most of them have no living family members to help care for them. Most have never seen an act of love from a Christian—and that must change!
Your gift today could literally be the difference between life and death for these poor people. The bitter winter places great strain on their weakened bodies. They need warm clothing, nutritious food and other basic necessities of life. We must respond to these urgent needs. Now that we have the Jerusalem World Center in operation we can do so much more—but only with your help. I am asking you today to send your best gift so that we can help as many people as possible.
When you give to support the Jerusalem Prayer Team, you are blessing what God wants to bless, and when you do, you will receive His favor and blessing. Thank you so much for being part of this vital effort to defend, support, and bless the nation of Israel and the Jewish people.
Barukh attah Adonai, melekh m’hulal batishbachot.
Blessed are you Lord, a King to be praised in adoration.
