Since I am taking a tour group to Israel this year, you may think this post is about visiting Israel, but it is not. This is about Zion as evidence of God’s faithfulness. When we see the towers, the bulwarks, the palaces of Israel, we recognize that our God keeps every promise He has ever spoken. It is about our eternal relationship with Him. His character can be trusted. That is the bottom line. We either trust Him or not. It is a life and death conclusion.
“Walk about Zion, and go all around her. Count her towers; Mark well her bulwarks; Consider her palaces; that you may tell it to the generation following. For this is God, our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even to death.” Psalm 48:12-14
The miracle existence of Israel as a vibrant modern nation is proof of God’s faithfulness. Just as Satan has always tried to block the Messiah and eventually kill Him; Satan has also always tried to kill Israel. If he could eliminate the Jews, and now the nation of Israel, he thinks he could win over Yehovah God. However, his success in crucifying the Messiah was reversed and cancelled by the resurrection. In exactly the same way, the resurrection of Israel from being a dead nation was a colossal defeat of Satan.
Therefore, we walk about Zion and worship the God who keeps His word. He is alive and He is the source of life. His life is eternal and available to all who follow the One whom He has provided. This is Yeshua, Jesus in His own words:
“The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” John 10:10
Now having said all that, it is still a great idea to visit Israel and see for yourself. So, if you are interested, take a peek at our September itinerary for our 2023 Elisha Vision Speak to the Dirt! Israel Tour.
Pray for peace of Jerusalem and increasing abundant rains for Israel.

Back from Israel – Wow!
16 09 2023Glory to God in the highest! The camel ride was a bonus. Seven camels, times two riders, times two trips. Everyone (28 chose to ride) of our group of 35 was able to ride a camel for about ten minutes. The experience at Genesis Land in the Judean desert was amazing. We had lunch with “Abraham” in his tent with his epic hospitality spiced with humor and information. And the meal was one of the best on our tour!
We were so blessed to be joined my Michael and Serah Masambu from Kenya. Twenty-nine were seeing the glorious land for the first time. Each day we experienced two or three spiritual highlights. It will take a while to process the deep moving of the Holy Spirit in our hearts. We will never be the same. Thank you Jesus!
One of the most exhilarating moments was the boat ride on the sea of Galilee. We sang and prayed and worshipped and celebrated connecting to our spiritual roots. I do not have words to express the glory of Yehovah revealed to us at every stop along the way. I can’t wait to return next June with another group.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem and seasonal rains. We saw the first shower of the rainy season!
