Modern Israel celebrates 77 years!

Published by Meridel Rawlings

Dear Friends: On the eve of April 30th 2025, modern Israel celebrates 77 years of Independence. “Tell us, when will this take place, and what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end, (completion and consummation) of the age?” Matthew 24:3 read on. “The righteous cry and the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The eternal God is a dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms, so that we confidently say, the Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What shall man do to me? Though I go through the midst  (center) of trouble, You are with me.” Ps. 34:17,  33:27, Ps 138:7  Yes, the  enemy oppresses, and will never quit until we wake up, push back and ‘serve him notice. Secure and sanctity the peace of your personal space in the blood of Jesus! IF we are not careful, we are tempted to think that there is no deliverance and our prayers are unheard. But it is in the  center of trouble where Jesus …

Die «Still Small Voice» schreit….

„Warum sind die Nationen in Aufruhr gegen Gott,und warum schmieden die Menschen einen vergeblichen und hoffnungslosen Plan?Warum beratschlagen sich die Herrscher gegen den Herrnund seinen Gesalbten und sagen:„Lasst uns ihre [göttlichen] Fesseln zerreißenund ihre Stricke von uns werfen.“ Psalm 2;1,2. Ich sehe mich gezwungen, Euch die folgenden von Herzen kommenden Schreie zu übermitteln und Euch um Eure Gebete für Israel, die Palästinenser und alle Nationen zu bitten. Wir sehen Anlass zu großer Sorge. Seit dem 7. Oktober 2023 haben wir gefragt: „War die Knesset mit Unfähigkeit und Korruption behaftet, welche uns zu diesem grässlichen Tag geführt hat?“ Gleichzeitig weigern sich Biden in den USA und alle westlichen Nationen weiterhin zu erkennen, wer der Feind der gesamten Menschheit ist! Unsere Welt befindet sich in einer Zeit der düsteren Vorahnung, einer Zeit des kommenden Gerichts! Die Verdorbenheit wandelt durch die Nationen: Der Tod der biblischen Menschlichkeit, der Brüderlichkeit, hat mit den Massakern und Geiselnahmen vom 7. Oktober 2023 eine Tiefe der Verdorbenheit erreicht, die kein vernünftiger Mensch für möglich gehalten hätte. «STEHT AUF» gegen die Hamas“, lautete …

Heartbreak!

Dear Friends; “Hear this, you who trample down the needy, and do away with the poor of the land … I shall make that time like a time of mourning for an only son [who has died.]” Amos 8: 4,10e. Our cover photo this week was taken on Israel’s 76th Independence Day. The people in the photo are lying down because of missiles coming into Israel from Hamas that day. How tragic it all is. Our Prime Minister is under fire from within the nation because of the reality of never ending pain the people have had to endure since Oct 7th 2023. He is wanted by the International Court. I quote: “There is no comfort. There is life, but the wound will remain until the end of our lives. Our War of Independence has not yet ended – it continues even now.” Unquote I cannot apologize for the heaviness of my last few Still Small Voice letters. Let us HEAR what the Spirit is saying. Let us heed the warnings. History has much to …

Yom ha Zikaron – Remembrance Day in Israel

Published by Meridel Rawlings

Dear Friends who pray for Israel: “For just as the body is one and yet has many parts, and all the parts, though many, form one body, so it is with Messiah – Christ … But God combined the [whole] body giving greater honour to that part which lacks it so that there would be no division or discord in the body, but that the parts may have the same concern for one another. And if one member suffers, all the parts share in the suffering …” 1 Corinthians 12: 12, 24, 25, 26. Friends, remember Israel right now in prayer, wherever you are. At sunset last night, May 12th, sirens sounded throughout the entire nation of Israel. The Day of Remembrance is now. I wept and interceded as I watched this very moving photo tribute to the IDF. We Israelis, a family, a nation, are so closely knit together whether in the nation or outside. Israel remains inside of us all for better and for worse. When one falls we all die just a …

Still Small Voice – Fishers and Hunters

Published by Meridel Rawlings

My Dear Friends: This week I heard this saying: ONLY LISTEN IF YOU WILL HEAR: “Behold, [listen carefully], I will send for many fishermen,” says the LORD, “and they will fish for them; and afterward I will send for many hunters, and they will hunt them from every mountain and from every hill and out of the clefts of the rock.” Jeremiah 16:16 TJVN (The Jewish Voice News) @TJVNEWS. Tonight May 9th 2024 Breaking News: There is an incident of rioters trying to break into a hotel in Athens, Greece where a group of Israelis are staying. The local police forces are trying to take over.  This “Emergency” Aliyah Conference was held May 1st/24 in Jerusalem. Since 1971, when we first carried scriptures to the Jewish Community in the then Soviet Union, we have been fishing or encouraging Jewish Communities to return home to Israel. In 1980 Jay presented the film we co-produced, Apples of Gold to Jewish and Christian Communities all over North America.  In one synagogue in America, the well-known Rabbi brought his …

Watching the Sea of Galilee

Published by Meridel Rawlings

The Sea is at its lowest since 1972. The entire nation of Israel prays for rain, no matter what their religious persuasion is. We depend upon the former and latter rains to keep us alive here. <a href=”http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/222640″>Read more here on Israel National News</a>

Where is the LORD?

Published by Meridel Rawlings

The earth is reeling today under the threat of terror. Multitudes are numb with grief and pain, prayer for them perhaps is just mute silence. Let those of us who are quiet and at ease, pick up the slack, and remember the suffering in loving prayer. Today the ‘valley of decision’ is crowded with humanity from every nation. We can remember them. Here’s how.
