The Power of Prayer

My older son, age 20 is in the Air Force, and works full time at our nearby base. He suffered a bad fall on Thursday, about a 10' drop the the concrete head first.
We got a call from the unit commander, and rushed to meet them at the emergency room.
Our prayers were going up in the car the way there, and after he was placed in a room, we had the blessing of our Rabbi, Teen Group leaders and friends arrive from Beth Hallel, and while the doctors looked at charts and scans and x -rays we prayed around him and anointed him.
Almost miraculously, he had no broken bones, no serious head damage, and no neck injury at all. The gash was stitched, and he has scrapes and bruises, but will be 100% recovered!
This was surely a powerful testimony to prayer and belief that it will work for you.
Hallelujah!!

Music vs ?

This site was originally created to celebrate praise and worship of the Lord, Yeshua Ha'Maschiach and doing that through music. When it changed to a blog format it also seems to have become easier to post news stories and information related to Messianic Judaism, so I have done some of that as well.
I aim to keep it still focused on what I am all about, and that is the simple goal of praising His name and spreading the good news of His Word. I hope those who stumble on this page will also gain something from the links and other info.
Shalom!

From internet News source-
"In Israel, a resurgence in the number of Jews who believe in Yeshua (Jesus) is getting a lot of attention. Many leaders say it's the strongest growth since the time of Jesus and that the Messianic movement could be on the brink of a great revival.

"This is the first time where we've seen Israeli society in general being so open to consider who Yeshua is," said Messianic leader Asher Intrater. "This is a real miracle, and there's beginning to be grace and favor with us in the land."

Vanderbilt Prof on Messianic Judaism

"Scholar predicts softer line on messianic Jews
PETER KOHN

An American Christian divinity scholar who is participating in an Australian Jewish study program has said the Jewish community may need to come to terms with Jews who believe in Jesus.Professor Amy-Jill Levine trains Christian pastors at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, and describes herself as “a Yankee-Jewish feminist who teaches in a predominantly Protestant divinity school in the buckle of the Bible belt”.

Prof Levine and her partner Professor Jay Geller are lecturing at Monash University’s Australian Centre for Jewish Civilisation Winter School program this month.

On the subject of messianic Jews, Prof Levine said that for many people there was a “dividing line here over which one cannot step” and “once the Jewish person accepts Jesus as lord and saviour, that person is no longer a Jew, but a Christian”.

Prof Levine said she respected that view but also looked at the subject from “the other side”.

Prof Levine said it was an “exceptionally complicated issue” because Jews who say they accept Jesus have “palpable and real” views.

“It’s often easier,” she said, “to simply say ‘I’m not a Jew for Jesus, I’m a Presbyterian or Lutheran or Catholic’, but what happens when they want to hang on to that Jewish identity, and what do we do with that individual’s family?

“One could look at them simply as a Christian, one could look at them from a traditional Jewish perspective as a ‘bad’ Jew or an apostate Jew, or a very confused Jew.

“On the other hand, if the argument is that they have a different way to the divine, a different pathway to God, then I can say the atheist Jew doesn’t care about God at all. Why would I accept one and not the other?”

Prof Levine said she was concerned at the impact on Jewish families. “Sometimes children of these marriages will say to their grandparents, ‘Gee, bubby and zaide, it’s too bad you’re going to hell’.”

M.U.S.T. Ministries

Visited MUST Ministries this morning. Early. Very early, at 5:30 Am my younger son and I went to help a team from CBH with serving breakfast and a Spiritual message to the unfortunate homeless folks that were staying there.
This place does much needed work for the community by combining resources from many other ministries to provide for the homeless and less fortunate.
I offered some praise and worship music while those in attendance could sing along and clap their hands. Dr. Lou Miller gave a great message to help keep the flame of the Holy Spirit alive in the people there, and a few came to know the Lord at this time.
It is a great reminder to see how easily one can lose the grasp on wordly things, and end up needing the assistance of others. Thankfully, there are others who are willing to assist.

New Evidence for the Jewish Messiah Yeshua

This article appeared in Haaretz, the Israeli newspaper. It speaks of an ancient tablet discovered near the Dead Sea which describes the forthcoming of the Messiah, and how he would die and be resurrected in three days. This is a Jewish description of the Messianic future happening before Yeshua was born. Brings another light to the Jewishness of Jesus.
