What the LORD is doing...

Update from Ariel & Shayla, Tree of Life, Israel

Yael contacted us, and as our team member Kim answered her questions, Yael began to open up and share how broken she is. Yael is 29 and grew up in a completely dysfunctional family. She suffered abuse over and over, and ultimately both her parents left her and her two younger siblings.

Yael was stirred with deep emotions about the war: “How could God allow such evil things to happen to us?”. The conversation went into deep topics like free will, sin, and the Gospel, and God opened up Yael’s eyes to see His love and compassion even in the midst of suffering.

Yael poured out her heart, “Ever since I met you and have been speaking with you, I’ve felt that there’s something right and true here. I never felt that as I was growing up as a traditional Jew. And I want what you have.”

But still, she felt that because she’s had such a sinful lifestyle – she’s not worthy of God. Kim comforted her with the words of Jesus himself:

“Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance”
(Luke 5:31b-32)

Yael responded, “So what do I need to do?” They answered that all she has to do is repent of her sins, commit her life to Yeshua, and receive him as Lord.

Yael was just about to start to pray, but then suddenly there was a huge rush of wind and noise, since a helicopter was hovering over them. So Yael started shouting out her prayer, confessing her sins and crying out, “Yeshua, please forgive me and come into my life.” She even forgave her parents, and started to weep. She said, “I feel totally different now.” For the first time, she was set free from all the bitterness and guilt and shame. Praise God!

Yael and Kim are continuing their connection as she begins her discipleship journey, and Kim was so glad to hear Yael say, “I want Yeshua more than anything or anyone else in my life. I just want to come and be filled with God.”


Update from Ima’s Goodies

Swords of Iron
These past six weeks we have experienced every emotion available to mankind. The amount of threats against Israel and the 242 hostages are constantly on our minds. The state of Israel was drawn into a war on our Gaza border and now fighting has been going on with our northern border with Lebanon. Those of us that live in the middle of the country are feeling it from both sides.

The amount of sirens and booms felt in the land has been horrendous...and yet we read all throughout Scripture... "Hodu L'Adonai Ki Tov- Give thanks to the Lord for He is good". It is so hard to see this now at the present, with my eyes on what is going on around and YET in my spirit, deep down in my Kishkes (inner being) I KNOW this to be true. We are bombarded every day with the knowledge of the loss of lives and what seems to be like the hopelessness of those around us…yet this is where we come in and bring the Love of Yeshua to so many. We are not just talking soldiers, but we are also sharing with so many around us. Everyone knows someone that is fighting, or families, besides the hostages that have lost loved ones. We are learning to mourn with those who mourn and listening to those who have a story to share.

Wonder what we are doing? or where we are going? Someday’s I am so crazy busy that I myself wonder how I will get this all done. So many people from our congregation and friends have stepped up and come together to help so we can take care of our soldiers. I have never in my life bought so many t-shirts, underwear, cup of noodles, or granola bars, not to mention Coco-Cola and other drinks.

In living in this land for 40 years I have never felt such a clearer understanding of my call to Israel, I am honoured that God would allow me to live during this time in this land and serve Him here.


A Word of Praise & Prayer from Ezra, Golan Heights

Through Blessing Israeli Believers generous donation we continue to distribute our monthly food program for Holocaust Survivors/Veterans. We were also able to financially come alongside a couple in Ashkelon whose home was damaged by a missile from Gaza.

Please continue to pray for Israel and for our team that prepares and delivers meals to soldiers. Wisdom for our political & military leaders as they move forward to free the remaining hostages & eliminate the threat of Hamas.

We are entering week 9 of Swords of Iron war with Hamas in the Gaza strip. By the grace of God many hostages are returning to Israel. As difficult as this time has been it has softened the hearts of the people towards the God of Israel.

It has been a blessing to encourage our troops on the northern border feeding, and fellowshipping with them. Including those suffering with PTSD from the battle, and male and female troops rotating from the battle including young adults from our Fellowship. A member of our Kehilah, a professional masseur, even went on a local base and offered free massages.

What the LORD is doing...

A Note from Blessing Israeli Believers Co-Founder Dov Schwarz

Dear BIB Friends and Partners,
First, I want to thank so many who have contacted me to inquire of my well-being as my last letter shared plans for my October 8-20 Israel trip. Of course, you received the letter well after my planned departure. Yet, I wanted to send an update for everyone who receives this letter.

My wife and I were awakened at 3:38am October 7 by friends in Jerusalem who are a brother and sister in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus). They were in their bomb shelter informing us of the Hamas attack. Long story short—due to complications of my plane flight I was not able to take my trip. Thankfully, before sunrise that morning in Texas—here is the word the LORD gave me to stand upon and you can stand on it with me!

So instead, after praying about what to do, I went into my studio late that Sunday evening October 8 and recorded an urgent TV program explaining this war from its Biblical perspective. I encourage you to watch it on my Youtube channel Watch Therefore. It is called “Israel At War.”

In the midst of the legitimate Israeli response to the Hamas massacre to protect the Israeli Land and people I also thought it important to share in this letter very important information that you may have never heard—from the perspective of a Jew who also believes in Messiah Yeshua. It is absolutely necessary for Israel to destroy Hamas and there are historical truths that are still with us today—even more so!

Some may be asking why the world is exploding with anti-semitism while Israel is simply fighting back after being viciously attacked in the most barbaric manner. Here is the reason and please remember this in the days ahead. Here are two primary principles:

1. Many in the world support or at least tolerate the Jews while their bodies are stacking up in times of anti-semitic attacks. But when “those Jews” fight back and could even actually defeat their enemies—the world that is under the sway of the wicked one (1 John 5:19) goes hysterically mad! This is so important to realize because unlike so many other times—this time Israel cannot and will not allow Hamas to remain in Gaza.

2. Any spirit that denies the Father or the Son Messiah Yeshua is a spirit of anti-christ (1 John 2:22). Islam and the Quran tells its followers that allah is god and allah has no sons. Islam at its core is anti-christ and that spirit of anti-christ is enveloping the earth right now! And guess what else—that spirit hates you as a disciple of Christ Jesus as much as it hates the Jews.

Thankfully, He who keeps Israel neither slumbers or sleeps and He also will never leave or forsake those in Messiah Jesus!

In His Service, Dov Schwarz


An Update from Ariel & Shayla, Tree of Life Israel
Israeli Soldier Bombarded with Mortars, but Blown Away by Jesus

David contacted us from the battlefield on the tense border with Gaza, “I’m getting bombarded with mortars as we speak!” he said to our team member, Daniel. “I hope I will make it out alive.”

David is 28 years old, single and secular from Tel Aviv. He used to define himself as a “complete atheist,” but lately he began a spiritual journey – he delved into Orthodox Judaism and even Buddhism. He was also bouncing between our evangelistic videos and the counter-missionary videos of others until one day, on Yom Kippur (the Day of Atonement), he declared to himself, “It’s either Yeshua or atheism!” David asked God for a definitive sign whether Jesus, Yeshua, is the Life and the Truth. He opened the New Testament and began reading the Gospels of Matthew and Mark.

“When I finished reading Matthew, I felt full of peace and joy,” David exclaimed. “I felt that same force pull all the anxiety and pain out of my body and felt a complete calm that I had never felt before! After reading Mark, I know Yeshua is the Messiah.” David decided to confess Yeshua as Lord and Savior, then he said excitedly, “I feel like I’m part of the team now! But I still need to be baptized.”

After the October 7th massacre, David was called up for reserve duty in a combat paratrooper unit. There, on the border, he contacted Daniel with his concerns. He was surrounded by religious Jewish soldiers praying from the traditional prayer books, wearing the prayer garments, and phylacteries (boxes with texts from the Hebrew Bible in them). David was anxious, “I’m worried that believing in Yeshua would be a betrayal to my people. I’m afraid that I would be cutting myself off from the nation by following Yeshua.”

Once again, David asked God for a sign to affirm and embolden his belief. What happened in response is a testament to God’s faithfulness to act in mysterious and beautiful ways. Out of nowhere, a family member on the other side of the planet who never talks about God, suddenly reached out, saying, “David, just to let you know, I’m praying to God and Jesus to help you. ”Upon hearing this, Daniel exclaimed, “That’s the sign, man, the one you asked for!”

David wants to spread the Gospel so all our people will know our Messiah. In fact, he’s been sharing about Yeshua there in the army. He shared Isaiah 53 with his Orthodox Jewish friend, and his friend couldn’t refute his point that this is about Yeshua.

In the midst of the war, David (like King David) proclaimed, “I’m trusting in God, that He will keep me alive so I can continue to study the Bible.”

Amen! Let us pray in agreement for David for protection, for growth in his faith, and that he would be a light in the midst of the darkness he’s facing.

What the LORD is doing...

UPDATE to this letter: This letter was written before the war in Israel began. Due to flight complications, much prayer, and other variables I decided it was best to cancel my trip for now.

I am in ongoing discussions and prayers with our BIB partners all over Israel. Some of whom have sons and daughters who are IDF soldiers in harm’s way. We continue to pray and stand with them and all of Israel at this critical hour.

For some context regarding this war you can look at this YouTube teaching from my program Watch Therefore

Grace and Peace in Messiah Yeshua,
Dov


A Note From Co-Founder Dov Schwarz
BIB Israeli Partners TV Recording Trip!

As you are reading this letter I am in Israel! My trip dates are October 8-20 and I will be meeting with some of our Israeli Believing Partners to record special TV programs with the intention to share with our viewers the exciting things the Lord is doing through our partners in the Promised Land!

My time in Israel with our BIB partners begins in the Golan Heights meeting with Ezra who is doing many good gospel works and also reaching out with humanitarian aid for believers and pre-believers in Messiah Yeshua (Jesus). He and his wife Shulamite have been one of our longest BIB partners and they are a real blessing to many including us!

During this part of my trip I will be staying at the Sea of Galilee very close to the home my family and I lived in during our time in Israel. I am also recording teachings by the Sea of Galilee to be aired on our Watch Therefore TV program - stay tuned! What a special place this is in our Lord’s creation.

Next, I am going to Haifa where I will also be recording TV programs with a very special teaching in mind. Our Bibles speak of the time when the LORD (Yehovah) would bring back the Jewish people from the nations of the world to their Promised Land. Many of them came from the nations and landed right at Haifa Bay. I will be there with stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea where boatloads of Jewish people came fulfilling thousands of years of Bible Prophecy!

Then, I am off to Jerusalem, the City of our Great King, to meet with three more of our BIB partners. One has a ministry in Tel Aviv to drug addicts and others who are down and out. We will be meeting near Jerusalem to do some recording for our TV programs. His name is Dov Bikas and what a special servant of the Most High God Messiah Jesus! On previous trips, we recorded programs with him that were very well received.

And also, I plan to meet with Oded and Sandy Shoshani. Oded is the pastor of Melech Hamlachim (King of kings) Messianic Congregation in Jerusalem. His wife Sandy is the director of Bead Chaim (Pro-Life) in Israel. They both have such a powerful testimony and work in the Holy Land! Lord willing, we will record important TV programs and have a special time of prayer with them and all our partners we meet with in the Land! Also, I plan to record teachings in Jerusalem that will air on Watch Therefore TV as well.

Here are a few Bible verses that sum up our intentions for this trip. And guess what? You can still participate in this holy trip to the Holy Land. Please consider praying and financially supporting this work which you can do right after reading this letter!

“Comfort, yes, comfort My people!”
Says your God.
“Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her,
That her warfare is ended,
That her iniquity is pardoned;
For she has received from the Lord’s hand
Double for all her sins.” Isaiah 40:1-2

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.” Romans 1:16
Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel
is that they may be saved. Romans 10:1


Update from Ezra & Shulamite,
Golan Heights

We were able to be used by God through donations from Blessing Israeli Believers to keep the electricity on during this extremely hot summer for a family of 5.

Tatyana has 4 children and is a new immigrant facing all the challenges of learning a new language and culture while trying to provide for her family.

Our food program is also still being used to assist the poor and the elderly here in Israel. We write this update to convey with you all God is accomplishing and to thank you for all your prayers and support.


A Special Note and Thank You from Ima’s Goodies

Many times as I pull up to the base I need to explain again who we are and what we do! Sometimes the destination is in the middle of nowhere. It is hard to believe that there could be places like this in our small country. I usually imagine that the young man on duty in front wonders how I managed to get there! Then, when I assure them that I came just for them, they’re excited to see what kind of “goodies” I have for them. It never fails they are always surprised that my team and I would come specifically to them and pass off some “lovin-from-the-oven”! Thank you for giving and helping us with this support of our soldiers.

Ima’s Goodies has been bringing love and special baked treats and snacks to IDF soldiers since 2014! Each soldier has put their life on hold to specifically answer the call of their nation of Israel at this time, whether it’s for a few years or a bit longer. To know that we can sleep in bed at night, free of thoughts or worry towards the enemy because they are on duty. Somehow in the midst of all that they go through they give new meaning to the words: “AM YISRAEL CHAI – The NATION of ISRAEL LIVES”

Recently our dear friends, Renee’ and her husband Gidon of Ima’s Goodies, have been experiencing a wave of physical medical needs and Blessing Israeli Believers has come alongside them to help. Below is a thank you note received from Renee’.

Thank you to those of you who have been praying for us and especially for my husband Gidon in these night seasons. Thank you to those who have given already, we so appreciate this. As we are here in Israel we pray blessings upon you and your families and your business’s, may they prosper as you have given to us as we help to further the Kingdom here in this land.

What the LORD is doing...

Chag Sameach!
- Happy Holidays!


A Note from Dov Schwarz, Co-Founder

Once again, the High Holidays are upon us. These Holy Days (Hagim) are called the Modedim (appointed times) in the Bible. They were appointed times on the LORD’s calendar for the children of Israel to meet with Him. Oftentimes the three primary Festivals or Feasts are combined into one called in English the Feast of Tabernacles which is also the third and final Feast.

A clear introduction and explanation of these Fall Festivals is in Leviticus 23. I will briefly name each and its prophetic fulfillment:

Yom Teruah - Day of Blowing Trumpets, September 16, 2023 (traditionally and not Biblically called Rosh Hashanah) It is fulfilled in the Rapture of Jew and Gentile in the Church. (Leviticus 23:23-25, 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18)

Yom Kippur - The Day of Atonement, September 25, 2023 is fulfilled at the Second Coming of Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) as He finally cleanses Israel from their sin and ushers in the Messianic Age! (Leviticus 23:26-32, Romans 11:25-27)

Feast of Tabernacles – Booths, September 30 to October 6, 2023 is fulfilled by King Yeshua sitting on the throne of David in Jerusalem in His glorious new temple as He tabernacles (dwells) with us. (Leviticus 23:33-43, Zechariah 14:16-21)

May this special appointed time of the year remind us to watch and prepare for the coming of our great King and Savior Yeshua. Until then we can remember that one of the best ways to bless Israel is to bless Israeli Believers in Messiah Yeshua!


Update from Ariel & Shayla, Tree of Life – Israel

There are so many Israelis turning to Jesus, Yeshua, and choosing life recently, that we sensed we need to share these encouraging stories with you.

Micah was one of the last people you could ever imagine would come to faith in Jesus. Our team member Eliel has known him since ninth grade.

A few months ago, Eliel met Micah in the park where they used to hang out together 25 years ago, Micah didn’t look good at all, he had become a drug addict for many years.

Eliel approached him and started a conversation with him about life and shared how even though he also had been an addict he was radically transformed since Yeshua entered his life. From that day on Eliel began praying for Micah regularly.

One day they met for coffee and spoke in more depth. Micha opened up about his struggles and shared that he’s been constantly tormented by demonic powers. He said “They attack me several times a day! I feel they’re choking me!” Over the years he had gotten involved in all sorts of evil spiritual experiences which opened the door to a spirit of death and many unclean spirits.

Micah tried six times to commit suicide but never succeeded, on his last suicide attempt the rope broke from the wall, then he drank half a bottle of toilet cleaner and fell into a coma, but still didn’t die. He shared, “I understood at that point that God wasn’t allowing me to die.”

What he didn’t know is that God wants him to live forever with Him. Eliel shared with him the Gospel of Life – that no matter how deep we are in darkness, there is hope and light in Yeshua the Messiah.

For Micah it was almost impossible to believe that God could change even his life. But he ultimately decided to pray and give his life to Yeshua and wanted to be baptized the following week.

On the same day, when he got home, he started to clean up his life, throwing away his satanic T-shirts and other items. But the war had just begun. The demonic forces started to attack him even more.

We, as a team, began praying for him and planned to meet with him before baptism and explain the Gospel in more depth to make sure that he is really fully committed to following Yeshua.

When we met with him, it was very clear that he needed deliverance from the demonic. As we started talking and praying with him, there was an intensive spiritual battle for quite some time. Then we sensed that he needed to ask God to forgive him for the specific evil spiritual experiences he had been involved in.

Up until that point, we had been leading him in prayer and he just repeated after us. But then something powerful happened. The floodgates of his heart burst open and he prayed such a beautiful, deep, sincere prayer of repentance for each thing. He cried out, “Yeshua, please forgive me! I’m so sorry I was involved in all that rubbish!”

He decided to go all in for Yeshua – that his old man would die and that he would be raised with Yeshua as a new creation. And God started an amazing work of deliverance in Micah. So we made our way to the beach and there the spiritual dirt was washed away as he’s began a new life in Messiah. Praise God for a new soul that’s entered the Kingdom of God!

Fields are ripe for the harvest

Of course, he’s just a baby in the faith now and has all sorts of spiritual and emotional baggage, so he needs lots of prayer! He’s started meeting with us for discipleship, and shared excitedly, “I had an experience where something was removed from my eyes and now my eyes are open to see Yeshua, so I want to honor Him and don’t want to go back to who I was!” We’d greatly appreciate your prayers that he’d be completely set free from all chains, grow strong in his new faith, walk in holiness, and become a fruitful witness for the Lord!

What the LORD is doing...

Dear Blessing Israeli Believers friends and partners,

It is important to remember that the Bible jumped into modern times with the fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy regarding the physical birth of Israel:

“Who has heard such a thing?
Who has seen such things?
Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day?
Or shall a nation be born at once?
For as soon as Zion was in labor,
She gave birth to her children.” Isaiah 66:8

Yet, the story is not over—to the contrary—the birth pains in the earth that brought Israel to a physical birth (World Wars 1 and 2) were just the beginning. Israel’s birth pains continue to trouble the world all around us today. They will lead to Israel’s salvation at the return of Israel’s Messiah Yeshua (Jesus)! Let’s see Isaiah continue in the next verse:

“Who has heard such a thing?
Who has seen such things?
Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day?
Or shall a nation be born at once?
For as soon as Zion was in labor,
She gave birth to her children.”
Shall I bring to the time of birth, and not cause delivery?”
says the LORD.” Isaiah 66:8-9

In other words, our LORD is telling us that He who brought Israel to the physical birth will also bring them to the spiritual birth in Messiah Yeshua! Until that day we know that one of the best ways to bless Israel is to bless Israeli Believers in Messiah Jesus—may His glorious name be praised!

Remember also, our Israeli believing partners are getting out the gospel, planting believing congregations, saving babies from abortion, helping Holocaust survivors, and much more, all in the great name of Israel’s Messiah Yeshua!

In Yeshua’s Name,
Dov Schwarz
Co-founder, Blessing Israeli Believers


An update from Ima’s Goodies!

Demonstrations: But God so loved us, that He demonstrated His love for us…by giving us a Savior and forgiveness of sins, which brought us Shalom/Peace.

These past few months have been literally crazy here in the land, I have never seen such inner turmoil and chaos as I have just recently. We have had crazy demonstrations, not rioting, but major demonstrations with thousands of people shouting and screaming into the night about the way the government wants to handle some judicial overturns and redo the judicial system. I know that God is in control, just seems literally like the country is imploding at the same time, that is why I am so thankful for the demonstration of God’s love towards us as a country and especially towards our soldiers.

At a time when our enemies lift their head and boast against us and our God we also have dissension within the ranks because of the reforms that the Government wants to do. Honestly, I cannot keep up with it all, but very thankful that God is our ever present help in THIS time of need. (and boy do we need Him at this time!) It is during these crazy moments that we are going out regularly to our Israeli soldiers with the message of Love and Hope. Our eyes are on the ONE who made heaven and earth, for HE alone is our Shalom/Peace.

Join us while we organize, bake and travel the land of Israel in search of these precious Israeli soldiers who are serving daily on the root lines of the battle.

What the LORD is doing...

Dear BIB Friends and Partners,

Truly we are in historic/prophetic times! Internally Israel is at war with Muslim terrorists, which is nothing new in our generation. However, this is only one of the raging conflicts in the Promised Land. Another internal strife is between Israelis themselves regarding smoldering political issues. Israel’s enemies smell blood in the water when Israelis fight against one another.

We also know Biblical wars are on the horizon that will shake Israel and all the nations of the world. Yet, here is something (Someone) we can count on in the midst of such chaos and trouble:

Behold, He who keeps Israel, Shall neither slumber nor sleep. Psalm 121:4

Oh the great once in the history of humanity opportunity is ours to participate in right now! While our and Israel’s Messiah is still bringing precious Jewish people from the nations of the world back to their homeland—mostly unbelieving in Messiah Yeshua—the LORD who keeps Israel has a plan!

He has left about thirty thousand Israeli believers in Messiah Jesus peppered (or salted) across Israel out of about seven million Jewish people! One of the ways our Heavenly Father is keeping Israel today is by preserving the Land and People with the righteousness of Messiah Jesus:

Isaiah also cries out concerning Israel: “Though the number of the children of Israel be as the sand of the sea, the remnant will be saved. For He will finish the work and cut it short in righteousness, Because the Lord will make a short work upon the earth.” And as Isaiah said before: “Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah.” Romans 9:27-29

Update from Pastor Oded, King of Kings, Melech Hamlachim, Jerusalem

Dear Blessing Israeli Believers Friends!

You are such a blessing to our congregation! Thanks to your support we were able to help a few families who are currently struggling financially. Just before Passover, we gave food cards to 13 families in our community, so they could get what they needed to celebrate the holiday.

One of these families has been walking through a challenging time due to a medical condition of the husband, which affects his ability to work regularly. He and his wife have three sweet young children, full of life and energy. This precious family was so grateful for this gift.

The Lord bless you! Oded & Sandy Shoshani


Update from Ezra & Shulamite, Golan Heights

Shalom from Israel,

It is hard to believe that we are half way through 2023. Many things are and have transpired here in Israel. We pray that our Newsletter will encourage you and we thank you for your faithfulness to stand with us.

Praise & Prayer

Through Blessing Israeli Believers designated donations we were able to be used by God to answer a young boys prayer for a new bicycle.

S was born in the USA but is now also an Israeli. He needed a bike to ride to school and to ride with his new friends in the teva (nature) that surrounds our community. This gift is assisting him to make new friends and get to school on time. S has asked us to thank you for being used as the hands of God to provide for him.

Our Fellowship was blessed to gather together on the Faith Worship Boat on the Sea of Galilee. We brought our instruments and voices to sing unto our LORD. It was a blessed time and a powerful move of the Spirit. For many of those in attendance it was their first time to worship on the Sea of Galilee.

On another note we were personally able to give our 2008 VW Touran to my new Associate Pastor Misha who immigrated to Israel with his family at the beginning of the year. Please keep him in your prayers as he has just applied to attend a 1-year Program to become an Israeli Certified Tour Guide.

All for His Name's Sake, Ezra & Shulamite

What the LORD is doing...

Update from our BIB Partners Ariel & Shayla, Tree of Life

Equipping for the Harvest

In Israel today there’s more interest in Jesus, Yeshua, than any time in nearly 2,000 years, but the number of Israeli believers who can share their faith effectively is far too small to reach those interested.​ Our passion is to help raise up many more effective laborers for the harvest – both online and on the streets.​

Our workshops and training videos are designed to equip people in such areas as:

•Sharing the Gospel effectively
•Our identity in Messiah
•Answering common Jewish objections to Yeshua
•How to shift topics to talking about God
•How to start conversations
•Praying for the sick, and more

After the teaching, we go out on the streets together two by two, so people can see live examples of how to share the Gospel, then gain experience themselves. They've shared with us that the practical training helps them overcome fears and develop a lifestyle of sharing the Gospel wherever they go.​

We train people to connect with the thousands of Israelis who’ve been responding to our videos on social media and answer their questions about the faith. The need is so great that we’re seeking to expand our online response team.

When Jews, Arabs, and believers from many backgrounds come together with one heart and one vision, God’s heart is stirred, He gives greater anointing and commands the blessing of eternal life, just as He promised (Psalm 133).​

So we felt God leading us to start inviting local pastors and people with a heart for evangelism to joint prayer breakfasts, in order to increase unity for the sake of spreading the Gospel more effectively together.​

And now God is doing something exciting: Believers from many congregations in our area have begun going out to share the Gospel together (sometimes even over 60 local believers at once!). We’ve been able to organize much larger events and reach out to many more people.

Many blessing in Messiah! Ariel & Shayla

On behalf of the Tree of Life Ministries Team


A Word from BIB Partners Ezra & Shulamite, Golan Heights

Shalom,

We thank you for all your prayers and standing with us here in Israel. God is moving and we are running to keep up with all He is accomplishing. It is our prayer that this update will encourage you to continue to be part of the team here in Israel.

Praise & Prayer

Camping on the shore of the Sea of Galilee and enjoying the warm weather. Amazingly we have been receiving rain 1-2 days per week, which is keeping everything nice and green.

Our Program has entered its last 20 days. Pray for them to finish well and their lives will be changed by the Holy Spirit.

Pray for our time at the Dead Sea, Masada, Ein Gedi, Eilat, Timnah, and Kfar Hanokdim - Bedouin Experience.

We are accepting applications for our Spring 2024 Program as our Fall 2023 is full.

Visit: studytourisrael.org

First time four Fellowships in the Golan Heights were invited to gather together for a picnic in the park by our home. Many attended and we pray everyone will attend in the future when we gather together. We have been blessed to have been a part of starting two of the four Fellowships.

Pray for our Young Adult gatherings, which includes the students from our Discipleship Program, and local Israeli Believers from our town. The amazing thing is that we have been blessed to minister to these young Israelis when they were young children and God has brought them back into our lives to encourage them in the LORD.

What the LORD is doing...

Update from Dov Bikas - Aviv Ministry, Tel Aviv

Amanda’s Story

Amanda*(not her real name) was born into a pastor's family, but at some point in her life she left the Lord. When and how this happened, we do not know, but when we met her and tried to find out what she believed in, she replied bluntly: “l am not religious.” We also learned that Amanda* was a highly educated woman and earned very good money in her homeland. On the day we met, however, her financial situation was very difficult. She had no money at all (even for food), she and her little daughter had nowhere to live, and she could not work, because she was not an Israeli citizen.

Amanda* came from the USA to Israel about 4 years ago to visit her Israeli boyfriend who she became pregnant from. She hoped to marry him, but soon she learnt he was a totally different person than he seemed to be when they first met. He started insisting that Amanda* had an abortion, and when she refused, he began to threaten her. She went to the police who realized she was in real danger. She was sent to a special shelter where she lived for a while. (It always amazes me that when a woman is in danger, the criminal who threatens her remains on the couch watching TV, while the woman with her children has to leave everything behind and wander from shelter to shelter…) We do not know why Amanda* did not return to her homeland while still pregnant. Maybe she hoped that the child's father would change and they could eventually live together.

Amanda* gave birth, and soon afterwards she ultimately realized that the child’s father was a horrible, cruel abuser. (These men are very good at pretending, so it sometimes takes quite a long time until the woman understands who she is dealing with.) She wanted to run away from him, but in order to take revenge on her, he hired a lawyer and forbade his child from leaving the country. Amanda* hired a lawyer too, and a very long court process began… During this time, Amanda spent all her savings and was practically left with nothing. Emotionally, she was completely broken as well. (Right: Amanda & daughter)

Amanda* lived in our Shelter for eight days only, but for her this time was very significant. Firstly, in just a few days, she received the permission to leave the country together with her child. Amanda* did not expect such a quick solution and connected it with her moving to the Shelter and our prayers. She clearly saw God's hand in it. Secondly, she was very touched by the care and warmth she experienced in the Shelter. Literally in just a few days, due to (the Hand of the Lord) a peaceful and safe atmosphere and good nutrition, Amanda* began to recover both physically and emotionally right before our eyes. But what impressed me the most was that Amanda* suddenly started quoting Bible verses and applying them to herself. This made me understand that she was returning to God! Please pray that God would strengthen her faith and keep her and her little daughter safe and blessed in their homeland.

Prayer Requests
1. Please pray for the visitors of our outreach center in Tel Aviv, that they would take the decision to leave the street life and go to rehab centers.

2. For all our rehabilitants in Beersheva - for the salvation of those who have not repented yet and for the spiritual growth of those who have.

3. Pray for the ladies in our Women’s Shelter – that they would get to know the Lord and His love and get restored emotionally, physically and spiritually.

4. For Eduard’s ministry among the new immigrants – he keeps in touch with hundreds of newcomers who turn to him for help and consultation, organizes different humanitarian and social events, sharing the Gospel of God’s love with everyone who is willing to listen. Pray that the immigrants seek and find their Lord and Messiah!

5. For the staff and leaders of all our projects, that God would give us all health and strength, as well as great love and wisdom to deal with each complicated case and help each needy person the best way.

Thank you for your care, support and prayers, and may God bless you all abundantly!

Dov and Olga Bikas and Aviv Ministry team


An Update from Hava, Aliyah Praise & Worship

Thank you so much for supporting me in the Praise and Worship Aliyah Project through Blessing Israeli Believers!

By the grace of G-d I have just completed my first year as an Olah Chadisha (New Immigrant) living in Israel. Every day seems like a miracle! It is amazing to see the Hand of the L-rd moving on behalf of His people. I am so grateful to have been able to help the local believers with practical work and help encourage new believers in their walk, and develop key relationships throughout the community at large. During this year I have also been blessed to continue playing concerts for holocaust survivors often and lead or co-lead worship every week at a local fellowship.

I have also been able to continue my Hebrew studies in Ulpan (language school for new immigrants.) With this new improvement in my language skills, by the grace of G-d I have had wonderful opportunities to share the good news of Yeshua with Hebrew speaking passengers in my car.

For this reason, I lovingly have dubbed this very used 2008 Subaru the “synagogue on wheels!”

Thank you again dear friends and may G-d bless you abundantly!!!

What the LORD is doing...

A Passover Note from BIB
Co-Founder Dov Schwarz

Truly, this is a most special time of the year as we remember both the Passover and Resurrection of our Savior Messiah Yeshua (Jesus). He died as the Lamb of God who takes away our sin and rose from the grave on the Biblical (Old and New Testaments) Feast of First-fruits. First-fruits takes place three days from Passover during the Feast of Unleavened Bread. That is why Messiah Jesus is the First-fruits of the resurrection:

“The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” John 1:29

“But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.” 1 Corinthians 15:20

Thankfully, our Heavenly Father has left a First-fruits witness in Israel who are bringing in the Israeli sheaves and are a preserving influence as they carry within themselves the righteous seed of the Passover Lamb. They are Israeli Believers in Messiah Yeshua!

“Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures.” James 1:18

And as Isaiah said before: “Unless the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, We would have become like Sodom, And we would have been made like Gomorrah.” Romans 9:29


Update Praise and Prayer from Ezra & Shulamite - Golan Heights

We just funded our “Send Week” of our Spring 2023 Study Tour Israel Discipleship Program. Please pray for them to put aside all their expectations and receive what the Lord has for them, the work He desires to do in their hearts and lives.

Their forth day in Israel they learned and prayed Hebrew worship for our Kehilah. This week they will be leading part of our worship and prayer night held with two other local Congregations.

Please pray for all of the Instructors and all our travel as we are in the field 3 days, classroom 3 days and 1 day off for a total of 12 weeks.

We were blessed to host a concert for the WWII Veterans and Holocaust Survivors led by local Israeli Composers. The foundation of every piece came from Scripture and told the story of our Messiah. It was a blessing to experience how the Lord uses music to minister to people. Their hearts were truly touched and open to the message. Pray that the remaining 15 people who have not yet come to receive Yeshua as their personal Messiah.

Pray for the Congregation as well as the LORD is adding to the body. Pray for the unity to remain and that the whole body, be fitly joined together, and the building of itself up in love.

All for His Name’s Sake, Ezra & Shulamite


Update from Pastor Oded & Sandy Shoshani,
Melech Hamlachim - Jerusalem

Dear Blessing Israeli Believers Friends!

We are so grateful for your ongoing support. Your faithfulness and love are an expression of God's goodness towards us. Thank you for allowing Him to minister through you to those who are in need in our community in Jerusalem.

With your help, we were able to support a wonderful family that recently has been struggling financially. The wife is studying for a bachelor's degree while raising her two young children, so she's not able to work much. They received food cards, which eased the financial burden.

It's always such a blessing for a family in need to receive aid and see the Lord's provision in their lives.

May the Lord bless you,
Oded Shoshani

What the LORD is doing...

Purim Sameach! (Happy Purim!)


A Purim Reminder from Dov Schwarz,
BIB Co-Founder

Beginning Monday Evening March 6, 2023 Jews around the world, and some Christians, celebrate Purim. All disciples of Messiah Jesus should remember something very important about Purim this year. By way of reminder, Purim (feast of lots or dice) pertains to the time when Jewish people living all over the Persian Empire were slated for slaughter by wicked Haman.

Yet, the LORD raised up deliverance for the Jews establishing a beautiful Jewish woman named Esther to be the wife of the King of Persia. Through the righteous and challenging witness of her cousin Mordecai—Queen Esther chose to confront Haman, at the risk of her own life, to save the Jewish people. By the grace of the LORD of Israel the Jewish people were delivered.

Once again, winds of war and threats come from the east as Persian Muslim Mullahs continually threaten to wipe Israel off the map! Recent reports say they are within just days of having enough weapons grade uranium to assemble a nuclear bomb. May we remember the words of Mordecai and act in prayer, raising our voices, and support of Israel at such a time as this!

“For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?” Esther 4:14


An Update from Dov Bikas,
AVIV Ministry - Tel Aviv

Alexander's Story
I was born in Ukraine, in a normal family. I attended school and played sports. But when I was 14, I tried drugs for the first time, and by the age of 17 I had already become heavily addicted. By the age of 20 I was married with two kids, and my wife was pregnant with the third. I tried quitting drugs many times, went through various treatments, but without success.

When I was 22 my legs gave out. I was bedbound for a year, but my wife was taking good care of me (she did not leave me) and I slowly started walking again. Now I understand that it was God’s grace. I was my wife’s fourth child… I was clean for one year, but when I became mobile again, I started thinking about drugs and soon returned to heavy abuse.

In 2021 my wife and I decided to move to Israel, since I was Jewish. We thought I would be able to get rid of my addiction there, but when we had arrived, I understood that I would perish here even sooner, since drugs were so easy to get anywhere. My drug abuse continued for a year, and eventually I ended up on the streets, since my wife could no longer bear this situation.

One day I asked my wife to let me see the kids, and we decided to meet in Ashkelon (where we lived), near the beach. While we were there, a person approached us and asked: “Are you new immigrants? Do you need anything?” His name was Eduard, and the same evening he brought a food basket to our home in Ashkelon.

Some time passed and I went to Tel Aviv. One day my street fellows suggested that we go to a Christian soup kitchen nearby. I did not exactly understand what it was, but I went, because I was hungry. I was brought into a place where several people were distributing meals. One guy was playing a guitar and others were talking with the visitors with care and warmth. I was surprised when one guy approached me right away and offered me clean clothes and treatment for the festering wound on my arm.

Then another guy came to me and offered a cup of hot tea, and suddenly I recognized him – it was Eduard from Ashkelon! He did not recognize me, but I reminded him of our meeting and he was very happy to see me. He told me about his life and by the time he invited me to go to his rehab center, I was 100% sure I wanted to go!

I have been in rehab for a month and a half already, and I have got a serious intention to dedicate my life to God. My wife is happy, she attends the church with me and gives thanks to God. When I look back at everything that has happened to me recently, I see the need for Aviv Center: in the middle of this deep and dusky swamp of south Tel Aviv there is a small island of God’s love, where exhausted and troubled people can come and find peace. I am very grateful to all those who serve there and do not forsake us, those who are dying on the streets without hope…

Thank you for your care and prayers!

May God bless you all, Dov and Olga and Aviv Ministry team


A Praise from Ariel & Shayla,
Tree of Life Ministry

A man named Yaron called us recently, he’d been watching videos about Jesus – Yeshua – he read the New Testament on his own and came to the conclusion that Yeshua is his Messiah and Savior. He even wanted to get baptized immediately and excitedly asked, “Can I do it by myself?”

But then he shared an inner fear that is holding him back: how will his wife and his religious Jewish family react? He’s quite certain that she will leave him.

Our team member Eliel read to him the words of Yeshua from Matthew 10 about the cost of following Him (including possibly losing one’s family) but also the reward of eternal life with Him.

We never know how people will respond to this difficult truth, but Yaron’s reaction was surprisingly positive. He said, “These verses are emotionally moving.” He also said, “Inside my heart, I know this is the right thing to do, and I can’t escape that.”

So he decided to move forward with it! We connected him with a local congregation to baptize and disciple him. Please keep Yaron in your prayers.
