Support Letter - For Israel's 54-th Independence Day

The leaders of the Jewish Messianic Congregations in Israel would like to show their support for the State of Israel in its hard times and to encourage the nation living in Zion.

Be Strong, Israel!


Don't be afraid, Since Our God is with us.


It is written that


"You, my servant Israel, Jacob whom I have chosen, offspring of Abraham my friend, you whom I am bringing back from the earth's extremities, and have summoned from the remote regions I told you, "You are my servant."I have chosen you and not rejected you. Don't be afraid, for I am with you! Don't be frightened, for I am your God! I strengthen you- yes, I help you- yes, I uphold you with my saving right hand! Look, all who were angry at you will be ashamed and humiliated; your adversaries will be reduced to nothing and perish. When you will look for your opponents, you will not find them; your enemies will be reduced to absolutely nothing. For I am the Lord your God, the one who takes hold of your right hand, who says to you, 'Don't be afraid, I am helping you.'" (Isaiah 41: 8-13)



We call upon all friends of Israel and people that love God from the gentiles to stand up to the right of the State of Israel in this difficult time

- To pray for the nation of Israel

- To raise their voice against Anti-Semitism

- To aid the State of Israel


As it is written: "A friend loves at all times, and a relative is born to help in adversity" - Proverbs 17:17


This is time for Action!
