What is “Jewish” about JVMI?

January 11, 2018

Jewish Voice Ministries brings the Good News – the Gospel – of Yeshua (which is the Hebrew name of Jesus) to people whom are Jewish according to the flesh. That is, those who are descendants of Abraham through Isaac, whether through the blood line of the mother or father. 

We help them understand that those who place their faith in Israel’s Messiah Yeshua will never disown or separate themselves from their Jewish identity or heritage. On the contrary, they remain sons and daughters of Israel.

Why reach the Jewish people with the Good News of Yeshua the Messiah? The Gospel is for everyone, but when it comes to sharing it, we have found that the Jewish people are one of the most neglected people groups.

Many Gentile Christians wrongly believe that the Jewish people have their own path to God and don’t need Jesus for salvation. This couldn’t be further from the truth! Not only do the Jewish people need the Messiah for salvation like everyone else, but Romans 1:16 tells us that the Gospel is to be preached “to the Jew first.”

“For I am not ashamed of the Gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile” (Romans 1:16).

Not all Jewish people reject Jesus as the Messiah. The truth is, many of them have no idea who He really is. We know that Christ is simply the Greek word for Messiah but sadly, when a Jewish person hears the name “Jesus Christ,” they think “the God of the Christians” rather than the Jewish Messiah, the Savior of the world.

Only about 10-15 percent of the Jewish community is orthodox and actively studies Scripture. The truth is, most Jewish people have never even read the Bible.

As we share with them key Messianic prophecies found in the Hebrew Scriptures – such as Isaiah 53 and Jeremiah 31:31-33 – we witness the miracle of Jewish people recognizing Yeshua as their Messiah. When the scales fall off their eyes, we hear many of them say, “Why didn’t anyone ever show me this before?”

We at Jewish Voice believe that the return of the Messiah is near. The Land of Israel and the City of Jerusalem have been returned to the Jewish people, and God continues to gather His people back to the Land from the four corners of the Earth. These are all signs given to us in prophecy that signal the onset of the Last Days. On top of these things, Jewish people are coming to faith in Jesus in increasing numbers. Right before our eyes, we are seeing End Time Prophecy being fulfilled in our own day.

It is Jewish Voice’s vision to take the Gospel “to the Jew first.” We focus our Medical Clinics in struggling and, in some cases, persecuted, Jewish communities in Ethiopia, Zimbabwe, and other locations. We focus our Festivals in worldwide city centers that have a large concentration of Jewish people. We give aid to and share the Good News with any who come to us, but it is the Jewish communities we’ve identified that draw us to each of our locations.

It is truly exciting to be a part of introducing God’s Chosen People to their Messiah, Yeshua! You can be a part of this exciting move of God by joining us on one (or more!) of our Outreaches, where we share the love and hope of Yeshua HaMashiach (Jesus the Messiah) “to the Jew first.”

In this inspirational DVD, filmed on location in Jerusalem in the Upper Room, Rabbi Jonathan Bernis teaches us how to observe the rich traditions of the Passover Seder — just as Yeshua (Jesus) did with His disciples over 2,000 years ago, known as the Last Supper.

Watch Jonathan Bernis on The Supernatural Now with Apostle Guillermo Maldonado, December 31st and January 8th. Check your local listings for airtimes.

We cannot do this without YOU!

December 28, 2017

Here at Jewish Voice we have a very special milestone to celebrate: Your partnership has brought healing and hope to more than 1 million people! 

Just think … a million people – more than the entire population of the modern city of Jerusalem – have received medical, dental or eye care; access to clean water; free eyeglasses; and spiritual encouragement in times of oppression. 

But most important, in every case possible, and thanks to you, these people were introduced to the love and saving knowledge of Yeshua as their Messiah

It’s truly amazing how God has used YOU! 

But even as we celebrate 1 million people blessed through our partnership with you and others, we look forward to something even bigger: the NEXT MILLION! 

And that’s why I’m hoping you’ll stand with Jewish Voice during this traditional season of generosity by sending a special year-end gift before midnight on December 31

Your support will provide a wide range of humanitarian and spiritual help to Jewish people worldwide, especially those in remote and impoverished communities. The NEXT million! 

In addition to physical care, you’ll also provide them an opportunity to receive prayer and hear the Good News of Yeshua, the Messiah. 

But – again – we cannot do this without ongoing prayers and financial support from you and other caring partners.

Messianic Jewish Chanukah Devotional – 8th Night

December 19, 2017

The contrast between God’s holiness and the state of the desecrated Temple greatly disturbed the Israelites.

They earnestly desired to set things right and present to their Holy God a renewed and pure dwelling place for Him. Through the miracle of the oil, God Himself made it possible for His people to rededicate the Temple to Him.

Scripture tells us that we, as believers in Yeshua, are temples of God (1 Corinthians 6:19). His Spirit dwells within us. Chanukah entreats us to examine our hearts and, with awakened enthusiasm for the miracle of the Gospel, rededicate our lives to God. This Feast of Dedication beckons us to renew our commitment to following Him closely, trusting Him in all things, and letting Him transform us on deeper levels than ever before.

On this eighth night of Chanukah, we search our hearts before God who has given us so much, and we offer Him our whole lives afresh. We turn over to Him all that stands in the way of being wholly committed to Him and rededicate ourselves to faithfully follow Him.

Messianic Jewish Chanukah Blessings

Place eight candles in the chanukiah tonight, setting them in the holders from right to left. As you light the Servant Candle (Shamash), recite the Chanukah blessings:

Blessed are You, LORD, our God, King of the universe, who has sanctified us with Your commandments and has given us Yeshua the Messiah, the light of the world.

Blessed are You, LORD, our God, King of the universe, who has performed miracles for our ancestors in those days at this time.

Candle Lighting

Using the Servant Candle, light the Chanukah candles in the opposite direction from which you placed them in the holders. Light them from left to right. Return the Shamash to its place. Let the candles go out on their own; they should burn for a least half an hour.

Scripture Readings

“He exists before everything, and in Him all holds together. He is the head of the body, His community. He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He might come to have first place in all things…” (Colossians 1:17-18 TLV).

“So when they had brought the boats to the landing, they left everything and followed Him” (Luke 5:11 TLV).

“Commit your way to Adonai. Trust in Him…” (Psalm 37:5 TLV).

Prayer

Faithful Father, even when our devotion to You is inconsistent, You never waver in Your commitment to us. You have given us freedom and life! Help us to trust You more fully and follow You more steadfastly. We rededicate ourselves to You now, knowing there are no better hands in which we could rest. Thank You for this Chanukah season, when we can celebrate Yeshua, the Light of the World, and the victory He won for us. Thank You, Father, for making the way for us to know Your transforming love. Draw us ever closer as we dedicate ourselves afresh to You.
