Zambia Medical Outreach October 20–30

October 19, 2022

See, I am doing a new thing! — Isaiah 43:19a

''

We are so excited about our Outreach in the Mumbwa district of Zambia – starting almost as we speak! This is our first time doing a Medical Outreach in a new country in 10 years. Although we have done many Outreaches and established many congregations in Ethiopia and Zimbabwe, Zambia is entirely new to us – from currency to customs. And we do believe the Lord is doing a new thing there.

There are so many critical elements to this Outreach, which is about to begin.

Zambia is considered a nation of born-again Believers, but how many of the Lemba Jewish people there truly know Yeshua (Jesus)as their Messiah and Savior? We can sense the warring in the spirit realm, both because of breaking ground in a new nation and because of the potential for Jewish people and their neighbors to be saved, healed and delivered.

SIGN UP HERE NOW to cover this Outreach in prayer! We have not walked this way before and are so grateful to have you joining us side by side through prayer.

Here are the day-by-day Prayer Points. Please pray for the following:

Wednesday, October 19 – Matthew 24:44a

  • All last-minute preparations to fall quickly and smoothly into place
  • Much favor in the community and from all levels of leadership and governmental authority
  • Special anointing from the Lord throughout the Outreach as we break spiritual ground in a new country

Thursday, October 20 – Galatians 5:22–23

  • Protection over every aspect of the Outreach, including physical, mental, emotional, relational and spiritual

  • The Lord to speak to them, preparing them to minister out of the fulness of His Spirit and the fruit of the Spirit

Friday, October 21 – John 17:20-21

  • Everything to be done in love
  • A shalom-filled Shabbat fellowship time to set the tone and spiritual atmosphere for the Outreach
  • Mild weather this week, which is during Zambia’s hot season, so many will come and be served

  • All departmental training and Clinic set-up to go smoothly

  • Morning prayer times to be energized by the Holy Spirit and produce insight, stamina and encouragement for each day of ministry
  • The Lord to be glorified and the forces of darkness to flee through lively times of worship with the Zambia worship team
  • Each person to sustain their closeness to and full reliance on God throughout the busyness of the Outreach week

Thursday, October 27 – 2 Peter 3:9

  • Medical personnel to see as many people as possible on this last half-day of the Clinic and for the Lord’s salvation and healing touch to be on all who came for care
  • Safety and ease in taking down and packing up the Clinic
  • Shalom as local workers complete their assignments and receive their pay. Pray also that they may come to know Yeshua for themselves

Friday, October 28 – Matthew 25:23

  • A wonderful and joyous Shabbat as the wonders of all the Lord has done are remembered and praised!

Saturday, October 29 – Psalm 121:8

  • An efficient and effective follow-up to the Clinic by reaching out to all who were interested in knowing more

We are so grateful for your prayers. They are reaching the throne room and having an impact across the globe in Zambia, accomplishing more than we can ask or think in Yeshua’s name.

Let’s pray:

Lord, thank You for the many, many born-again Believers in Zambia. But even beyond those who already believe in You, we are so grateful for the opportunity to make You known among the Lemba Jewish community. May they know You as Messiah and Savior and Lord. May their lives and families and communities be radically impacted by the Good News and by medical care and healing in the wonderful name of Yeshua. AMEN.

Sukkot – a great time to pray for Jewish people

October 12, 2022

''

This is an amazing time of year as we progress through the Fall High Holidays. We have drawn near to God during the Hebrew month of Elul and the season of teshuvah (repentance). We have experienced the sweetness of Yeshua (Jesus) while entering the Hebrew year 5783 on Rosh Hashanah, the Feast of Trumpets. As Believers, we were reminded on Yom Kippur that Jesus, the Righteous One, is the atoning sacrifice for our sin.

And most recently, we turned our attention to Sukkot, the Feast of Booths (Tabernacles), which we are in the midst of right now. We gather to thank God for His loving-kindness in leading the children of Israel to the Promised Land, and we look forward to when the Lord will dwell among His people forever!

At Jewish Voice, we carry the Jewish people in our hearts and in prayer in a special way during this season, which also prefigures the return of the Lord to His people. We pray for Jewish people in Israel and around the globe to come to know Yeshua as Messiah, Savior and returning King.

Here are some ways you can pray:

  • That the sober and holy holiday of Yom Kippur will have sharpened Jewish people’s awareness of their needs and shortcomings and softened their hearts regarding their own spiritual condition
  • For Jewish people to realize who Jesus truly is and that He came for them and has made perfect sacrifice once and for all for their atonement
  • For believing family members and friends to share about Yeshua as they gather during Sukkot
  • As Jewish people look up at the stars through the leafy branches covering their sukkot during the Feast of Booths, they would marvel and feel drawn to the God of creation
  • That Jewish people would long for and come into relationship with the God of their Fathers through Yeshua

Let's Pray 

Lord, the fall holy days are Your appointed times when You call us to meet with You. May Your Jewish people be drawn to You by Your Holy Spirit. Whether they are aware of and observing these holy days or not, they are still under the influence of these times that You have designated for Your people. May they draw closer to You and come into a full and personal understanding of the significance of these times in Yeshua. In His name, we pray, AMEN.

Anti-Semitism on the rise in Russia

THIS WEEK’S GLOBAL UPDATE

A Note from Jonathan Bernis

Shalom, my friend!

In whatever you’re facing today, I pray God’s strength and peace for you. 

There’s no greater promise we have from God . . . which was ultimately realized in the coming of His Son, Yeshua (Jesus), the Messiah.

And I’m reminded, that no matter what we face – no matter what God’s people face – He’s close at hand to bring strength and peace. 

That’s why I’m hoping you’ll join with me and everyone at Jewish Voice as we pray for strength and peace in Israel. Based on the headlines below, we know there’s unsettling animosity against the Jewish people – both in Russia and in Israel.

We must stand together, remain watchful and vigilant . . . and ask God to strengthen His people, give them peace and change the hearts of their enemies.

And as you pray today, please continue to pray for the work and ministry we share at Jewish Voice. And pray for God to open more doors to share the Good News of Yeshua with the Jewish people.

Thank you for standing with us through your partnership.

To the Jew first and also to the Nations,

As Putin’s war sputters, anti-Semitism seeps into the Russian media

The Jerusalem Post reports that as Russia’s war in Ukraine begins to flounder, openly anti-Jewish rhetoric is entering the country’s mainstream media.

According to The Jerusalem Post, Russian President Vladimir Putin has, throughout his 22-year term, cracked down on the open anti-Semitism that nearly all of his predecessors had either encouraged, tolerated or ignored.

But now, openly anti-Jewish rhetoric is entering the country’s mainstream media, with a popular talk show host naming Jews on air as being insufficiently patriotic and a think tank accusing a prominent Jewish philosopher of siding with Ukraine out of greed.

The uptick in anti-Semitism adds to the forces that have caused tens of thousands of Russian Jews to leave their country since Putin invaded Ukraine. According to The Jerusalem Post, about 20,000 people, or 15% of Russia’s estimated Jewish population, emigrated from Russia to Israel this year alone. And authorities in Israel are preparing for many more now that Putin has begun drafting civilians for miliary service in Ukraine.

Updates from the Middle East

Hamas funneled terrorism funds through Gazans with Israeli entry permits

The Israel Defense Force (IDF) and Shin Bet (Israel’s Security Agency) thwarted a Hamas terrorism financing scheme used to funnel money from Hamas in Gaza to fund terrorism in the West Bank and Turkey. Gazans entering Israel for humanitarian reasons or with work permits would deposit money in Israel. Then a group of student activists at Birzeit University in the West Bank would withdraw the money and send it to Hamas officials in Turkey. The activists were arrested in possession of credit cards with the illegal funds.

Two shootings carried out against Israelis in West Bank

Palestinian terrorism is on the rise around Israel’s Hebron area. Two weeks ago, Palestinians fired at a yeshiva (an Orthodox Jewish school) at the entryway to the Carmel settlement in the South Hebron Hills, injuring one of the students. And just last week, Palestinians shot twice at Israelis in the West Bank within a 24-hour period, as local leaders called on the IDF to do more to crack down on rising Palestinian terror.

Pray with Us This Week

Please pray with me for:

  • God to continue to protect the innocent lives from the fighting in Ukraine and to bring a peaceful end to the invasion by Russia
  • God to continue to uncover the plots and schemes of Israel’s enemies to prevent violence and save the lives of the Jewish people who are being targeted
  • God to bring protection and safety to innocent people who are caught in the crossfire in a resurgence of violence by Palestinian terrorists
  • Peace in the hearts and minds of the people of Israel and their enemies
  • The Jewish people to recognize "Yeshua" as their Messiah

Prayer Points: I invite you to pray

September 28, 2022

Join in RETURNing to the Lord in prayer and fasting . . .

Last week, here at Jewish Voice Ministries, we held our twice-a-year Week of Prayer and Fasting. I am inviting you into our focused theme of “Return.” It is a fitting focus as we just emerged from the Hebrew month of Elul and celebrated Rosh Hashanah. Elul is a season of teshuvah (repentance), which carries the invitation to return and draw near to God, to reflect personally on the state of our own souls and relationships with Him. It is a time of spiritual accounting in preparation for the fall Holy Days of Rosh Hashanah (also known as Yom Teruah or the Feast of Trumpets) and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.

We wanted to share with you the Scriptures and themes we meditated on and prayed into during our staff’s Week of Prayer and Fasting so that, in this season of the Fall Feasts, you can join in worship and personal reflection before the Lord, praying along the theme of “Return.”

Returning to the Lord Myself

 “Let us examine our ways and test them, and let us return to the Lord” (Lamentations 3:40).

Lord, show me, show us, any ways that we have gotten off track in our love for You, our thinking, our relationships with others, or in our focus or affections. We want to be whole-heartedly Yours.

Calling Israel and the Jewish People to Return to the Lord

“Therefore tell the people: ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says: “Return to Me,” declares the Lord Almighty, “and I will return to you,” says the Lord Almighty’” (Zechariah 1:3).

Adonai Tzevaot, Lord of Hosts, give us opportunities and boldness to call Your people back to You, and Lord, prepare their hearts to hear You calling and respond.

Calling the Church to Return to God’s Heart for Israel and the Jewish People

“But you must return to your God; maintain love and justice, and wait for your God always” (Hosea 12:6).

Lord, our hearts are grieved at the many ways Your body has turned against and even persecuted Your Jewish people over the centuries. May the Church repent and receive Your heart for Your people, extending kindness, seeking justice where wrong has been done, and sharing Yeshua (Jesus) with humility and love.

Calling the Nations and the Jewish People in Them to Turn to the Lord

“All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before Him” (Psalm 22:27).

Lord, may every Jewish person, every person on Earth, and every tribe, tongue and nation, have the opportunity to hear of You and turn to You. The day will come when all the families of the nations will worship You together. Until then, we pray.

Calling the Lord to Return and Dwell with Us Forever

“He who testifies to these things says, “’Yes, I am coming soon.’ Amen. Come, Lord Jesus” (Revelation 22:20).

Lord, we are committed to occupying until You come, loving one another and taking the Good News of salvation to the Jewish people and their neighbors. But oh, Lord, how our hearts long for Your return! We join in with the cry of our brothers and sisters over the centuries and throughout the world today, saying, “Yes, come, Lord Jesus! Come!” In His name, we pray, AMEN.

Thank you for joining us in these prayers. It is very meaningful and sacred for us to be connected with you in this way.

A Hard Winter is Coming for Ukrainian Jews

September 23, 2022

THIS WEEK’S GLOBAL UPDATE

A Note from Jonathan Bernis

Shalom, my friend!

I pray God’s blessings over you. And I also pray that no matter what you’re facing right now, you will respond like the Psalmist who says, “Hear my cry for help, my King and my God, for to You I pray.” (Psalm 5:2 NIV)

Wether you’re experiencing an overwhelming burden, a personal crisis or even a challenging decision amid uncertainty – cry out to God for help. 

The greatest hope we have is that God hears the cries of His people. And that He is in control of every situation. He wants you to call to Him. He’s eager to hear from you. 

And as you pray today, please continue to pray for the work and ministry we share at Jewish Voice as well as the news headlines shared below. Pray for God to open more doors to share the Good News of Yeshua (Jesus) with the Jewish people in poverty stricken and wartime communities around the world.

Thank you for standing with us through your partnership.

Defying Warnings, Jews Embark on Ukraine Pilgrimage

Thousands of Israeli ultra-Orthodox Jews have vowed to brave the dangers of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and make a pilgrimage to the city of Uman during the Jewish new year, Rosh Hashanah. The vows come after multiple warnings from Israeli officials about the dangers and risks of visiting an active war zone. It is estimated that over 30,000 visitors, mostly from Israel, typically visit the city of Uman and the burial place of Rabbi Nachman, the 18th-century founder of the Breslov Hasidic movement.

Lufthansa Becomes First Airline to Adopt IHRA Definition of Anti-Semitism

The German Lufthansa airline announced last week that it would adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA’s) working definition of anti-Semitism, holding that hatred toward Israel is anti-Semitic. The announcement comes after the airline barred a large group of Orthodox Jewish passengers from boarding a flight back in May, resulting in a firestorm of outrage from Jewish people in the United States and across Europe.

Murder in France motivated by anti-Semitism

September 09, 2022

THIS WEEK’S GLOBAL UPDATE

A Note from Jonathan Bernis

Shalom, my friend!

Much like the Psalmist, I find myself being moved by gratitude right now, even in the midst of terrible anti-Semitism I see on the news – because I know “the LORD is good and His love endures forever.” (Psalm 118:1)

And I pray that you, too, will experience the goodness of God and His love in your own walk of faith.

Don’t ever forget that YOU can be His expression of goodness and love wherever you are today. In fact, all of us at Jewish Voice, and the Jewish people we serve worldwide, experience God’s goodness and love through your prayers and generosity.

That’s simply the power of God in our lives – using all of us to build His Kingdom and bring His presence to others. It’s amazing. And I’m grateful for your obedience.

Please continue to pray for the Jewish people – for their ongoing safety, for God to open their hearts to receive the Gospel of Yeshua (Jesus) and for our ministry in Israel and around the world.

Thank you again for standing with us through your partnership.

Jewish Man Murdered by Muslim Neighbor in France

Ynet News reported late last week that a Jewish man was murdered by a Muslim neighbor in northeast Paris.

Initial reports indicated that the suspect, Mohamed Dridi, turned himself in to the French police – claiming that the victim, Eyal Haddad, allegedly owed him $100 and didn’t return the debt.

Later, Dridi confessed to murdering Haddad because he was Jewish.

The National Bureau of Vigilance against Antisemitism (BNVCA) released a statement to the press, stating: “The murder took place on August 20 in Longperrier, a commune in the Seine-et-Marne department. According to our information, the assassin smashed his victim's skull with an ax and then burned his face (so the victim wouldn’t be identified) and even began to bury the body.”

While the investigation is still ongoing, the BNVCA asked for these facts to be examined, considering the anti-Semitic character of the crime.

Israel Buys Refueling Tankers That Will Help It Attack Iran's Nuclear Sites

As a nuclear deal between Iran and the United States continues to be negotiated against Israel’s recommendation, the Israel Air Force has signed a contract with Boeing to purchase four multi-mission KC-46 refueling tankers in a deal valued at $927.5 million. According to Israel’s Defense Minister, Benny Gantz, “The refueling aircraft that are being purchased, along with the procurement of an F-35 squadron, helicopters, submarines and advanced munitions will enable the IDF to meet its security challenges both near and far.”

Deadly Danger: Israel Warns Against Travel to Ukraine’s Uman as Pilgrimage Nears

Israel’s Foreign Ministry has intensified its calls for Israelis to avoid traveling to the Ukrainian city of Uman this Rosh Hashanah, warning worshipers that visiting would pose a “real and immediate risk to lives” in light of the ongoing war between Russia and Ukraine. The city of Uman, which is the burial site of the 18th-century founder of the Breslov Hasidic movement, Rabbi Nachman, normally attracts some 30,000 visitors, most of them from Israel, over the Rosh Hashanah holiday.

Prayer Points: Will you pray for this new Outreach location?

September 07, 2022

''

You have been praying with us for the Lord to open doors to new locations, and He has once again answered! This month we will be ministering in a lush green urban community in Southern Ethiopia. Some of the Beta Israel Jewish people there reached out to the Messianic Jewish congregation in Kechene (an area in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia), interested in learning more about what they were teaching and doing. This established a connection and created an opportunity for us to take a full-scale Medical Outreach to this new area.

We are expecting the Lord to do great and mighty things on this Outreach. A key prayer is that He would answer the interest and inquiries of the Jewish people in this area not only with information and medical aid but with spiritual revelation and supernatural healing.

Below are more specific prayer requests so you can know how to intercede day by day, beginning now. Also, please sign up on our 24-7 Prayer Watch schedule to commit to a specific time during the Outreach dates when you can cover us in prayer from home.

Outreach Recap - August 2022, Mberengewa, Zimbabwe

August 29, 2022
''

After 10 years of conducting Medical Outreaches in Zimbabwe, we returned to the region where it all began, a place called Mberengewa. One of the highlights from this outreach was the Zehra Kids Program which ministers to children about their shared identity and heritage in Yeshua.

Because of You

Over 2,700 Zimbabwean children, many of whom are Lemba (Jewish), learned about Jesus through biblically-based lessons and activities. Of the 48 people who wanted to be immersed (baptized) as a testimony of their new faith in Jesus, six were from the Zehra Kids Program.

Indigenously Led

A vital component of sharing the Gospel in other countries is nurturing new Believers to take up the calling to reach their own people. On this Mberengwa Outreach, we were thrilled to see the first Zehra Kids Program entirely led by an indigenous Zimbabwean team.

Answered Prayers

We often pray for young people and Messianic Believers from Israel to catch the vision of the work we do. On this Mberengwa Outreach, a group of young adults, some of whom are second, or third generation Jewish Believers, joined us from Israel to serve alongside the Lemba leaders in the Zehra Kids Program. Two answered prayers!

All of this was possible because of your prayers and financial support. Thank you!

Just look at all the good you accomplished in Mberengwa!

  • 7,630 Patients Treated
  • 2,757 Children Ministered To
  • 200 Family LifeStraw Water Filters Given
  • 1,093 People Received Dental Care
  • 934 Eyeglasses Distributed
  • 54 Minor Surgeries
  • 2,950 People Heard the Gospel
