Shalom, Dear Ones of The
Sacrificed Lamb, Yeshua!
We are living in some very
significant times. This
month, our Jewish people as well as many believers in Yeshua (Jesus)
that understand the biblical feasts know that the Day of Atonement (Yom
Kippur), as well as Sukkot (the Feast of Tabernacles), are some of the
most significant, prophetic and holy holidays. There are so many
scriptural types and shadows of how Yeshua fulfills these very biblical
and times and seasons. As mentioned in reference to the Day of
Atonement, Hebrews 9:7 says, "But only the high priest
entered the inner room and that only once a year and never with blood,
which he offered for himself and for the sins the people had committed
in ignorance." In reference to the Feast of Tabernacles,
Yeshua Himself tabernacled among us in the flesh as He chose to be born
in a less-than-glorious and lowly place. Not only that, as a young
Jewish man, he deliberately took the Festival of Sukkot and spoke about
himself as accounted in the
book of John 7:37-38, and said "If
anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me,
as the scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living
waters." How awesome and how cool is that, my friends?! This
is what Abundant Bread of Salvation is all about in serving and
providing for our Jewish people in the most practical forms that will
not only give physical life, but also give rivers of living waters to
their souls. Hallelujah! Can you feel my excitement?
On top of our regular weekly
activities of soup kitchen and food bag distribution center, this month
many other activities have been set up that are bringing blessing and
newness of life to our poor and needy people as well as Holocaust
survivors, single mothers and widows. We built a Sukkah (Tabernacle),
in the back yard of our home and for the second year in a row, we were
able to bring a busload of Holocaust survivors into this temporary
dwelling place, giving them refreshing drinks, fruits and vegetables
and explaining to them the blessings of each day of life God gives us,
our health, as well as the infilling of the Ruach Ha Kodesh (the
Holy Spirit.) We then got back on the bus and brought them for a
couple hours drive to the Sea of Galilee on the Jordan River to a
Sukkot BBQ experience which had live worship music by International
Messianic Music artist Joshua Aaron. It was glorious, but also had
much spiritual warfare. One of the Holocaust Survivors almost passed
out! This is why we always need your prayers. They are getting
old and passing on quickly right before our eyes.
We also recently brought a
busload of Holocaust survivors up to Jerusalem to experience the world
premier of a biblical musical of the Book of Daniel, which had
topnotch actors and singers from Africa and America. The survivors'
responses were far beyond my expectations, asking how they can know
more about the Book of Daniel! One of our local Russian Jewish
volunteers has a weekly Bible study that many of them said "they
would like to come and learn more of the miracles of God that happened
in the story of Daniel." Please pray that their eyes and hearts
are open to His Good News of salvation.
There is so much more that has
happened this month that I cannot even fit on another page, but upon
ending this letter, I want to praise the Lord for two more amazing
Royalty Meals that happened with Holocaust survivors. One was with
a dear friend and pastor of ours from Hawaii and his group of thirty
and their forty Holocaust survivor guests! It was like tropical, living
waters and breathing new life into these dry bones! We also had a
special meeting with Rosemary Schindler honoring our survivors
at a historical, British Jewish prison camp called Atlit and then a
meal overlooking the beautiful, ancient Cesarean port. Thank God this
camp is closed and only a memory of the past that us Jews struggled to
make this Promised Land what it is today; a
true world changing miracle!
Thank you for your continued
prayers and your support! Only because of this we can continue this
work of bringing eternity in the most tangible form.
Glory to His name!
