Please join The Joshua Fund in praying for the peace of Jerusalem, for geopolitical peace but also spiritual peace through the Prince of Peace our Lord Jesus Christ.
Yom Kippur was, and is, the most solemn and important day in the Jewish calendar, beginning at sundown Tuesday, September 22 through Wednesday, September 23, 2015. Once a year on the Day of Atonement, the High Priest was permitted to enter the Holy of Holies in the Tabernacle to approach the Lord where His Spirit resided. While the Old Covenant sacrifices were provisional and recurring, they could only cover man’s sin. For the Follower of Jesus Christ, the sacrifice through Jesus’ death and resurrection is eternal and totally sufficient. The moment one places his trust in the Messiah’s sacrifice upon the Cross, the sin question is settled forever. There is no longer a need for continual sacrifices; we are assured that we have life – not just for another year, but for eternity.

There was a strong spiritual urging from the youth and an unexpected response from them in the number of commitments to Christ that were made. They witnessed new spiritual births and also saw the Lord identify and begin calling out future leaders to Himself.
When you are hurt or in need of medical assistance, the piercing wail of a siren can be the most comforting sound in the world. It means that help is coming and you are not alone. Two ambulances donated by The Joshua Fund continue to bring that life-affirming, expert medical care to injured Israelis, and to assist in this vital work which includes emergency medical, disaster relief, and blood bank services.

The number 67 may not stand out at first glance, but in the eyes of those who love Jesus and who rejoice over God’s continued, faithful work with Israel, it is a wonderfully significant number. The anniversary of the founding of the modern State of Israel on May 14, 1948, can be seen as the 67th annual celebration of this continuing miracle of God. Israel Independence Day is observed this year beginning at sundown April 22 through April 23, 2015.
