“Leaving the City”: From Israel #6

weiss ministries — Mon, 09 Nov 2015 01:41:42 +0000

(REMEMBERING MY TRIP TO ISRAEL OC. 26 – NOV. 7, 2014.)

We will be leaving “The City of the Great King” very soon. As it is with any place I visit, I always think about what I will leave behind because I ALWAYS take something away. I will carry with me so many memories, experiences, and revelations. I will leave the very center of the earth and go back to the West. I will leave the Place where Adonai has placed His Name! I am leaving the Place where Yeshua lived and died and was resurrected! And I will leave the place to which He says He is returning!

I have never yearned for Him so much as I did standing there on the Mt. Of Olives. Our group stood in line to enter a chapel that had been built on the very spot from where it is believed that Yeshua ascended. After our turn in line, our group entered the chapel walking on a paved stone floor, which yielded a squared opening of the original stone of the mountain. A powerful feeling of His Presence overwhelmed me when I walked in! We encircled the stone and we sang “Here I Am to Worship!” (see link: IMG_4953-2) The voices filled the space and resounded against the stone walls, wafted through the open windows, and headed heavenward! Unforgettable!

I knew at that moment, I really wanted Him to return! How appropriate a feeling when I was standing in that spot. The one He marked; the one He chose for His return. I joined with the spirit of the angels who had told Yeshua’s disciples that He would return. In tearful, passionate longing, I joined with the Spirit of God in proclaiming, “Come Yeshua! Even so, come Messiah Yeshua!” One day, the Bride will share the Spirit’s desire and proclaim with one intense longing: “EVEN SO, COME!”

It certainly was a place I did not want to leave.

But as I leave this amazing City, I leave my footprints (in so many places, but namely) in the city of Nazareth, on the shores of Galilee, upon the heights of Mt. Carmel, on the Temple Mount, and on The Mount of Olives.

Thank you, Abba, for the experience!

Living the Moment: “from Israel” #2

weiss ministries — Thu, 30 Oct 2014 19:28:41 +0000

Our Boeing 777 landed on the runway of Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv. We were finally here! And on our way up the concourse, there was a sign that said “Welcome to Israel!” Take a a picture of me, I requested, hardly able to contain my excitement.Get passport stamped. Pick up luggage. A two-hour drive in the waning light to Galilee. Tomorrow would hold great promise, I thought.

Magdala was our first stop in the light of morning. In recent years, a synagogue dating back to the times of Yeshua, had been unearthed there. I thought of her, Mary (Mary of Magdala; you call her Mary Magdalene) and her life-changing encounter with Yeshua (Could this synagogue have been where He met her?) Her encounter with Him caused her to leave that little town and that local synagogue and follow the One who had cast from her seven demons. The guide pointed to a split in the surrounding mountains and said that Yeshua would have walked from Galilee over those mountains down to the city of Magdala. And she would follow Him, I thought, through those mountains, into Capernaum . . . to the cross . . . and to the grave!

Next stop–The Mount of Beatitudes: We walked past a garden of olive trees up an incline to to a grove of ficus trees. Under that grove, Bishop taught us from the Sermon on the Mount in the near vicinity of where it is believed to be the spot where Yeshua sat and taught the multitude! A gentle breeze, like the Ruach of God, blew off the Sea of Galilee and made that moment special. The breeze caressed us as we recited together the Lord’s Prayer, just as Yeshua taught His disciples to pray.

The teachings in each spot transported us from 2014 to the first century and allowed us to live those moments that we had read about! Living in the moment with Him enlarges us so that when the time comes, we can live as He lived when we are in less than ideal situations! His Presence is truly here!

“I Can Only Imagine”: From Israel #1

weiss ministries — Tue, 28 Oct 2014 18:45:21 +0000

“I can imagine what I would do when my face is before You. When I stand in Your presence, what will my heart feel? Will I dance for You, Jesus, or in awe of You be still. Will I sing hallelujah or be able to speak at all. I can only imagine.”

Well, recording artists Mercy Me asked the above questions in wonderment! As I sit on the Boeing 777 plane taking thirty of us across the Atlantic on a tour of Israel, I am 2 hours away from my destination!

And I am asking the same questions that Mercy Me did.

What will I do when the plane touches down at the Ben Gurion Airport?

What will I do after going through baggage claim and stand on the outside of the airport, on the grounds that He consecrated?

What will I do when our driver picks us up and takes us to the kibbutz in Galilee where I will stay? Galilee was the headquarters of Jesus’s ministry.

What will I do when I board a boat that will sail across the Sea of Galilee?

Or when I teach in the Garden of Gethsemane!?

Or at the Pool of Siloam?

Or stand on the grounds of the ill-fated Jericho!

Well, I can only imagine . . . and you, well, you have to wait for my 2nd blog.

PRAYER: Abba, none of us has any idea what that day will be like when really do stand before You, but until then we want to live every day in Your presence as if it were the last one! And in the land that you blessed with a promise, I want to encounter you in everything I do! Amen!
