More commentary about Israel

July 16, 2006

Today the Father told us to set out a rock for Israel on our patio before Jesus. Silvana saw blood on the rock. She said that the blood represents Jesus' blood. As we were praying for Israel and looking at the rock, I heard this, "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. They shall rise up with wings as eagles". After I heard this, I saw a spirit rise up from the Father. When I told Silvana about it, the Holy Spirit showed her that it was "the spirit of Samson". The Father has been showing the Bridge that He is building between the Old Testament and the New Testament, with names in the bridge, and He continues to show more stones and more names. For instance, a few days ago, He showed another stone for the bridge and on the stone was the name "David". Now we see the representation of "Samson" and rise up.

Samson represents strength and the Father is going to give strength to the Jews. Not only the Jews within Israel, but also the Jews in America and all over the world. Now is the time for them to rise up in defense of the nation Israel. We ordered 105,000 more pictures of Jesus the other day and when we did I noted again the cross streets at the printers. One is Guadalupe (that is another name for Jesus' mother, Mary) and the other is Aliyah. Here is a definition from www.dictionary.com for Aliyah: Aliyah (Hebrew: עלייה, "ascent" or "going up") is a term widely used to mean Jewish immigration to the Land of Israel (and since its establishment in 1948, the State of Israel).

If the Jews in America wanted to do so, they could do a hostile takeover of Hollywood, simply because they have so much influence there. If they chose to support Israel, to support the war, they could greatly influence all of America. Pray for the Jews and for Israel as the Holy Spirit moves to raise them up. They are the tree into which we are grafted, and now the time is arriving for them to be grafted back in to their own heritage, their own tree. As the Holy Spirit said in Silvana's hearing recently:
NOW IS COME THE TIME FOR ISRAEL TO BE GRAFTED IN
TO THE ROOT AND BRANCH OF JESSE.

Here is a quote from Isaiah 11: A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him - the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD and he will delight in the fear of the LORD. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears.

The Holy Spirit is talking about Jesus. He is the root - He was there first - Israel comes from Him, for He is God, and He is the branch, for He comes from them, by being Jewish. The branch bears fruit. The reason that Jesus cursed the fig tree as recorded in the Scriptures is because it bore no fruit. The Holy Spirit has been warning Christians that they must hear Jesus, they must do the Father's will, they must have fruit, to be Jesus' Bride, and now the Father speaks to Israel of their return and their own fruit. The end of all the turmoil that is stirring now, and the events to come, will be the return of Jesus to the earth, to Israel.

When America was a growing nation, there was an idea called "manifest destiny". It was put into words by one man, and then by many others. It was the idea that God intended for America to stretch from sea to sea. Many Americans believed the idea and it was put into effect. This was from the Holy Spirit, not to harm or come against the native Americans, but to establish America as a free nation, from one side of the continent to the other. (The native Americans should have been assimilated with respect, as much as they were willing, just as immigrants are assimilated into America. Out of many, one.)

In the same manner, the Holy Spirit is moving now to cause the Jews to return to their native land and to Him. "To return" does not necessarily denote moving to Israel, but the Jews should strongly support Israel in its time of need. Every supporter of Israel, Jewish or Christian, or lover of freedom, should give their money (thus the representation of tithe in the stones for the bridge) and any other help that they have to offer in this time of need. And of course, we wait continuously on the Father for His favor and help for them.
