Parasha Va’era (And I Appeared): When God’s Deliverance Seems Slow

December 27, 2013 God tells Moses that after He is finished dealing with Pharaoh, Pharaoh will force the Israelites to leave Egypt.

Parasha Vayigash (Then He Drew Near): Where God Pours Out His Blessing

December 6, 2013 The reconciliation between Joseph and his brothers provides a beautiful prophetic picture of the restoration that will come between Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah) and his Jewish brothers and sisters. Just as Joseph said, “Ani Yosef, I am Joseph, your brother…” so will Yeshua one day say, "Ani Yeshua, I am Yeshua, your brother and Messiah.” Halleluyah! Joseph saved not only his own family, but also the Egyptians. So too, Yeshua came to save not only the House of Israel, but the people of every tongue, tribe, and nation of the earth.

November 25, 2013 Pro-Israel Jews have been barred from attending an open meeting today at the UN that marks the anniversary of the 1947 resolution allowing the establishment of a Jewish state and an Arab state.
