As the love that God stirred in my heart toward Israel grew over the past two decades, I have become especially stirred toward the Messianic Jewish community in Israel. Once I began to learn of their lives and ministries, I could easily see that the same conditions that existed for the first generation of Israeli believers as recorded in the Book of Acts, exists for the believers today in this generation of the restored nation of Israel. Many Christians who love Israel think it does not matter who they bless in Israel as long as they bless Israel. But it does matter. It matters to God because He is the Lord of the harvest in Israel. If we continue making our brothers in the faith the very last people we bless in Israel, then we will continue to limit and hinder them as the laborers in the Lord’s harvest in Israel. This is an understanding both simple and profound, yet the majority of Israel-supporting Christianity has zero knowledge or contact with the indigenous Israel believers - now estimated at 10 to 15,000 souls. It is time to awaken to what God is doing among the believers of Israel and to pray into their labors in the Lord’s harvest.
