Sid: I’m going to tell you something, if you had been in the environment I was in and you were not red hot for the Messiah I think you’d be dead. I did not expect it, but we’re doing this broadcast a month after the fact, but literally I just off a plane as I’m recording this right now from Israel. I was there for Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles. I was invited by representatives from just about all the Messianic Jewish Congregations in Israel to speak at an event of all things it was a New Age festival. Thousands of Jewish people gathered right by the Sea of Galilee. I’ve never seen so many witches, and kabbalist, and Satanist, and just a hedonist, and just so many perverse things in my life. I brought a team with me of men and women that move in extraordinary power of God, and I have one of the team members, Rabbi Michael Zeitler; who is rabbi of a Messianic Jewish congregation in Kingston, New York, Baruch HaShem; which is Hebrew for Bless His Name. Michael, give me some of your impressions of what you saw in Israel with me.
Michael: The setting was absolutely gorgeous on the Kinneret on the Galilee. Of course the weather was beautiful except that one day that we had rain. As I looked around the hedonism that was expressed by these young adults and older teenagers was phenomenal. As we walked around together and just explored what was being offered the attire the people were wearing, the various different offerings that were being given to these young people such as kabbalism, witchcraft, and Hinduism, and every other kind of “ism,” every other kind of New Age thing you could think of was offered there. It just seemed to be a total air in the environment of freedom for the occult, freedom for New Age, freedom for lust; I mean the women the way they were dressed was practically with nothing. It just seemed to be all out chaos, and yet it also from what my observation was, was that there was a controlling force behind this whole thing which I believe were the head kabbalist that were trying to steer or recruit these young people into something that they wanted to involve them in.
Sid: I was asked to go and speak 2 times, which I did. In fact, when I spoke you walked up to one of the young people. These confused kids that are into all the things the Torah condemns. Tell me about that.
Michael: Well it was a woman that was probably in her maybe early 20’s. I had asked her if she had prayed the prayer with you, and she said that she was afraid. So I had the pleasure of being able to explain to her, and she spoke English plus there was a translator next to me, and explained the gospel and what it meant, what it meant to repent of sin, what was going on in her life. Then I asked her “Would you like to have the God of Israel, would you like to have Mashiach in your life? Yeshu is His name” and she said “Yes I want that.” So she prayed with me, she accepted the Lord; I saw a big smile on her face after she was completed as a completed Jewish believer in Mashiach. Then I said “Now God’s going to bring a family of believers around you and He’s going to embrace you and nurture you and help you to grow.” It turned the translator was a believer and I didn’t know. So I said “Now see here’s one for you right now, and can we get her a Bible” and they went and got her a Bible. They were following up with her and encouraging her and helping her. So there the Lord just took care of it right at the tent.
Sid: You know Michael I was astounded at all the team members that were moving in such supernatural power. You know if God didn’t show up in power the devil certainly wasn’t holding back on his power. Tell me a couple of people that you personally, a couple of Jewish people you personally prayed with and what happened.
Michael: Well we were in a group praying and there was an unsaved Jewish family. At one point and time the Lord led to pray for a specific area on this gentleman’s lower part of his abdomen over by his chest in the back. Afterwards we asked “What was the reason for that?” his daughter pointed out that that was an area of his ribs that he had injured. This was a sore area for him and God knew and God was healing it. Then a short time after that…
Sid: The thing that was so unusual is you didn’t know to pray in that area except… How did you know to pray for this unsaved Jewish man in that area of his body?
Michael: I just sensed that the Lord was directing me almost like it was a hotspot, you know, and put your hand right there in that spot and just pray.
Sid: Well you know not only was he healed Mishpochah, when I was speaking and I told you all these things were going on… Michael have you ever spoken in an environment like I was speaking in?
Michael: No!
Sid: You hope you never do I think. Anyway it was an experience. As I’m speaking a one beautiful young Israeli I just kind of catch her eye, and I didn’t realize God was doing something. So I started talking to her and then all of a sudden a word of knowledge came, I spoke the word of knowledge and hers was the first hand that was raised and she was healed. I said… and I didn’t even realize it at the time “Did you notice me looking at you just before you were healed? God picked you out, God healed you.” I loved it! Tell me someone that was healed.
Michael: That same family there was an older aunt. She was walking away and as she was walking away I thought she was leaving and the Lord had spoken to my heart about her shoulder in a word of knowledge. So she was walking away and I figured “Well it’s too late now” and the Lord said “Michael be obedient.” So I went up to her and I said “Excuse me, can I pray for your shoulder? Have you had problems with your shoulder?” She said “Yes, yes.” So to make a long story short I asked the Lord if He would a brand new rotator cuff in her shoulder, and he did. She was swinging her arm like a windmill, and praising God, even though she was unsaved, to the Lord because of the fact that her shoulder was healed. Thanking God that her shoulder was healed and she had all arthritis, bursitis, whatever you want to call it, God gave her a brand new shoulder. There was also another thing Sid that was extremely dark, extremely demonic that took place on Wednesday night which we weren’t even aware it was going to be happening. They had these huge boulders around in a circle, and a smaller group of rocks that were in an area to make a fire for. At one point in time as we were out there ministering on this like main area, main pathway that went into the fair, and what was interesting was when we would say to someone, or you would say to someone because the Lord had showed you to do this first. “Do you speak English?” Then asking them if you could ask them a question, and specifically have they ever seen miracles, do they believe in miracles, and opening up the door to talk to them about the miracle service that would be coming. The interesting thing was, that when this celebration, or ceremony took place, and it was a truly dark pagan ceremony, with hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of these young people all around this rock area in a circle and drums just continuously beating and chanting and all kinds of things going on all at the same time. While all that was going on, at the same time we were out a little bit further away and people were coming to know the Lord. Young adults were being drawn supernaturally by God to come away from the fire circle as I call it, and to come away from this pagan celebration of darkness to come into the light to hear about Yeshua and to hear about miracles. They were coming to accept Him even during all that was going on at the same time, with the drumming and all the paganistic things that were happening.
Sid: There was one man who comes to mind who walked up to me. He wanted to sell me on a New Age meditation course so he hands me his brochure, and I’m thinking to myself “There’s no way this guy’s going to accept the Lord.” I started talking and God opened his heart and he came to the Lord. You know it’s not by man’s might or man’s power, but it’s only by the Spirit of God.
Michael: Yes, hallelujah.
Sid: I tell you this is the set time, yea the set time in which God is removing the spiritual scales from the eyes of Jewish people. Simultaneously because it says in Romans 11:11 “Salvation has come to the Gentile to provoke the Jew to jealousy” simultaneously He’s removing the spiritual scales from the eyes of Gentile Christians. This is God’s time to reach the Jew and God has given me a strategy and understanding of the next… the greatest and perhaps the last move of God’s move on planet earth and so many Christians do not have a clue. You must understand the Jew, you must understand Israel, you must understand the heart of God at this moment. There is a mandate in the heavenlies that Christian and Jews must have the middle wall of separation come down between the two of us and unite to become the One New Man, the true body of Messiah.
