A time to “Go Up to Israel”
This is Israel, a three set video series that is as fresh today as it was when Zola Levitt filmed it. So, come up to Israel with us this month.
If you can’t be in Israel, come to The House of Living Water where you can share in a little bit of Israel here in St. Louis.
Sept. 6 A Place of Birth Zola teaches from the Kibbutz Ramat Rachel in Jerusalem, which overlooks Bethlehem. He relates the history of Bethlehem from Biblical times through today, including the controversial construction at Har Homa. A Place of New Life We go to the baptismal site on the banks of the Jordan River. Zola recalls his own baptism there, and we see Russian immigrants being baptized. Next, we interview a cancer researcher who is developing a new method of treatment, which appears to be very promising. A Place of Opportunity Zola tells us the history of Tel Aviv, the business center of Israel. We also visit a site in nearby Jaffa where Arab and Jewish children regularly come together in peace.
Sept. 13 A Place Among Nations Tom McCall tells us of the historical significance of the port city of Akko, known in the Bible as Acre. A Place of Blessing Zola recounts the many artistic achievements made by the Jewish people. We hear from a scientist who uses DNA to find those who are direct descendants of Aaron and the High Priests. A Place of Healing From the Dead Sea, Zola tells how these waters are used by many for healing. He interviews the spa manager at a Dead Sea resort hotel before visiting a vegetarian spa hotel located in the beautiful, green landscape of the northern Galilee area.
Sept. 20 A Place of Revelation Tom McCall, senior theologian and author, gives us the history of Caesarea Philippi, now called Banias, including some of the ideas the Messiah taught here. Next, we go to Tel Aviv to hear the testimonies of several messianic believers. A Voice to the Nations From Jaffa, the ancient seaport south of Tel Aviv, Zola tells us how David, Jonah, Simon and Cornelius visited here. Israel’s former Science Minister informs us how “high tech” this country has become. A Place to Call Home Nestled along the shore of the Mediterranean, Caesarea has become a beautiful and affluent area. Zola explains the spiritual significance of Caesarea, which is a jewel in the crown of Israel. We see new immigrants coming to Israel and hear from the Jewish Agency representative involved with the process.
Sept 27 A Place of Peace Along the shores of the Sea of Galilee, Tom McCall reviews the Biblical significance of the area as well as its importance to the modern nation of Israel. We see interviews with Israelis and visitors from the pedestrian mall on Ben Yehuda Street in Jerusalem. A Place of Still Waters From a vantage point overlooking the waterfalls of En Gedi, Zola recalls the streams in the desert mentioned by Isaiah and explains the importance of water to this arid region. We visit an agriculture tradeshow in Haifa and an innovative greenhouse in the Negev. A Place for the King Zola reviews Jerusalem’s history from the beautiful YMCA building.

Weekly Wednesday
Round Table Discussion
10:30am - 12:30pm
The Sons of Jacob, that is, The Tribes of Israel
Evelyn Kinsella and Linda Clark will be leading the discussion.
The foundation of this study is the Holy Scriptures, but studied in the light of the “symbolic meaning of the Tribes of Israel in these last days.”
Using Gwen Shaw’s in-depth study on the 13 tribes of Israel, this round table discussion will look at the natural Tribes and their descendants and from these be able to identify the spiritual tribes, even physical Gentiles who will fulfill the callings, inheritances and destiny of the original Tribes of Israel.
Each member of this Round Table Discussion may begin to see character traits of the sons of Jacob in themselves and learn from this the future that may be theirs. Join us, Wednesdays, 10:30 pm to noon for this Round Table Discussion with Evelyn Kinsella and Linda Clark.
Weekly Friday
Restorers of Israel meets for Prayer for Israelstrong
2 pm – 4 pm
Friday Afternoons
“Spiritually, the gatherings are regularly filled with power and the Presence of the LORD. However, His power and Presence always manifests in a different manner, which keeps everyone in great anticipation each week. In most of the meetings we are blessed with live worship to assist us in drawing near to the LORD and then we move back and forth between worship and intercession.” Quay Messner, prayer leader.
Chuck Pierce, of Glory of Zion Ministries states that 5771 will bring us into “a season of unbridled power.” We want to share with you the points spoken of by this ministry for the upcoming civil new year for Israel and the Body of Yeshua.
Psalm 32:6-9 summarizes the year ahead. Read it in the amplified Holy Scriptures.
Chuck begins, “Let us GO UP! We begin a new spiritual ascent to the high places. The Spirit of God will allow the glory to be administered by those who have been allowing their circumstance to discipline and prepare them for increase.
Multiplication will occur where ONE CAN BECOME ONE THOUSAND. Many will be making a change in physical positions, out of necessity. This can work for your advantage. You will become very sharp as you worship and allow joy to transform you. Many matters that have weighed heavily on you will now become full, and you will understand the ‘whys’ of a matter. The Body of Christ will resound with a hearty “AMEN” throughout the year as many blessings draw into reality.”
In Hebrew, Rosh Hashanah means, literally, "head of the year" or "first of the year." Rosh Hashanah is commonly known as the Jewish New Year. Rosh Hashanah occurs on the first and second days of Tishri.
There is, a similarity between the Jewish New Year and the American one: Many Americans use the New Year as a time to plan a better life, making "resolutions." Likewise, the Jewish New Year is a time to begin introspection, looking back at the mistakes of the past year and planning the changes to make in the new year.
The name "Rosh Hashanah" is not used in the Bible to discuss this holiday, however, listening to the Lord is important. Religious services for the holiday focus on the concept of God's sovereignty.
The month of Elul overlaps August and September. It is a time of forty days of contemplation by the Jewish people during which they try to “make things right” knowing that the Day of Trumpets, Rosh Hashanah is near. From the orthodox Jewish perspective, the Fall Feasts or “High Holy Days” is briefly explained below.
“The LORD said to Moses, "Say to the Israelites: 'On the first day of the seventh month you are to have a day of rest, a sacred assembly commemorated with trumpet blasts.”Leviticus 23:23-24
And so begins, the fall “appointed times” set apart by the Lord for His people to be with Him, the Feast of Trumpets, Lev. 23:24, “a memorial of blowing of trumpets.”
For Israel, this was the beginning of the Civil New Year, a day of repentance and of hope that their name would be written in the Book of Life for another year. A sin offering is still required, “one kid of the goats as a sin offering, to make atonement for you” Num 29:5, which looks forward to the atonement required for the nation of Israel.
Although the Jewish Holiday of Rosh Hashanah is widely known and celebrated as the New Years Day of the Jewish calendar, it actually has a fourfold meaning - It is the Jewish New Year, the Day of Judgment, the Day of Remembrance, and the Day of Shofar Blowing:
1) It is the Day of Judgment-as Jews worldwide examine their past deeds and asks for forgiveness for their sins.
2) It is the Day of Shofar Blowing-as the Shofar (the rams horn) is blown in temple to herald the beginning of the ten day period known as the High Holy Days.
3) It is the Day of Remembrance-as Jews review the history of their people and pray for Israel.
4) And of course it is New Year's Day -celebrated with it's holiday greeting cards special prayers, and festive and sweet foods (to ensure sweetness in the New Year).
The traditions of Rosh Hashanah are simple as the only commandment specified for the holiday of the blowing of the shofar. In the synagogue the shofar is blown on Rosh Hashanah to herald the beginning of the period known as the High Holy Days.
On the first day of Rosh Hashanah, after the afternoon services, Jews visit a body of water or pond, containing live fish*, to symbolically “cast away” their sins (smooth rocks they have picked up along the way) into the river.
*The fish's dependence on water symbolizes the Jews dependence on God, as a fish's eyes never close, God's watchful eyes never cease.
It is believed that on Rosh Hashanah the destiny of all mankind is recorded by God in the Book of Life. After Rosh Hashanah services, as the congregants leave the synagogue they say to each other...
“L’shanah tovah tikatev v’taihatem”
“May you be inscribed in the Book of Life.”
On Rosh Hashanah it is customary for families to gather together for the holiday meal. Traditional foods sweetened with honey, apples and carrots are served, symbolizing sweetness, blessings, abundance and the hope for a sweet year ahead.
The Day of Atonement, described in Leviticus 16, is that day when the nation looks for atonement. A dramatic day, as all of Israel falls silent. In Lev 23:26-31, the nation is told to fast and rest from all work on pain of death, with the Levites offering sacrifices, with one great “expiatory” sacrifice, two goats: one goat sent out for the sin of the nation which it was hoped to have the power to atone for sin and one goat as a blood sacrifice offering to the LORD.
Then on the fifteenth day of the Seventh Month begins the Feast of Tabernacles (Sukkot),
“And you shall rejoice in your feast, you and your son and your daughter, your male servant and your female servant and the Levite, the stranger and the fatherless and the widow, who are within your gates.” Deut 16:14.
Commanded by the Lord to “rejoice,” this feast is unlike any other as the Jewish people live in booths, huts open at the top to see the stars and only closed on three sides to remember that they once lived in booth in the wilderness after being delivered from bondage in Egypt.
Sukkot, also known as The Feast of Booths, ushers in what the Jewish people call, “The Season of Our Joy,” in Hebrew, “Zeman Simhatenu.”
With these Fall Feasts, Kevin J. Connor writes in his study of the Feast of Israel, “Tabernacle, with its Trumpets, Day of Atonement and Ingathering sets forth the final operations of the Lord God in the earth prior to and at the second coming of Christ. It sets forth the gathering of the saints unto the Lord, the perfection of the church by the power of the blood atonement and the final harvest of souls before Christ comes. The fullness of this Feast of the seventh month overflows into the seventh Day of the LORD, the Kingdom age, and will be enjoyed for all eternity.”Prophetic Fulfillment
“And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles… In that day there shall no longer be a Canaanite in the house of the LORD of hosts.” Zech 14:16-21.
But the thousand year reign of our Messiah reigning in our midst all began at the first appointed Spring Feasts, that of Passover, Unleavened Bread and Firstfruits.
