The great Christian spiritual heritage came from the Jewish people!
They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in the Jews’ spiritual blessings, they owe it to the Jews to share with them their material blessings. (Romans 15:27)

The salvation of Israel is not about Israel. The strategic importance of the salvation of the Jewish people is that it will release the grace and power needed to bring about the salvation of the world! Lord, open the eyes of your people worldwide to grasp this truth!

The #1 key contact the LORD blessed me with this year is Jeff Bernstein, a messianic Jew and the founder of Gates of Zion. Since I met Jeff in April in Brooklyn New York and reached out to bless him, I have experienced incredible breakthroughs in many areas of my life – in my marriage, in my job at the hospital, with my web work, and with Pray Culpeper and Transformation Virginia.

Israel’s acceptance of Yeshua brings life from the dead! It is awesome to even attempt to comprehend the power of resurrection.  Do you realize that when Messiah was raised from the dead there was such a release of resurrection power in the earth that the entire city of Jerusalem was transformed?  The biblical text tells us that many who were dead suddenly came to life and began to stroll throughout the city! 

It is clear from scripture that God gave Israel to the Jewish people. In reaching Jewish people with the message of Messiah, having a keen biblical knowledge and understanding of the land as well as the people of Israel is extremely important.

When you bless the Jewish people, you bless yourself! Blessing Abraham’s descendants so thrills the heart of God that He promised to bless those who bless them. In April 2006 when I went to New York City for the International Transformation Network meeting hosted by Harvest Evangelism, God crossed my path with that of Jeff Bernstein. Jeff is a messianic Jew and the founder of Gates of Zion. The mission of Gates of Zion is to open the eyes of Jewish people worldwide to the light of the Messiah.

Less is more!
The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul; The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple (Psalm 19:7)
For the past few weeks Matt Gregory, my pastor, has been preaching a series at Soul Purpose Church titled “Less is More.” Matt is a great communicator and learned a lot from Rick Warren’s CD series titled “Preaching for Life Change.”
Rick Warren is a master communicator. No matter what we do for a living, we can learn a lot about influencing people within our own sphere …

The size of the question determines the size of the result.
He (Jesus) said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” (Matthew 16:15)
Jesus was a master at asking life-changing questions. Asking one profound question can radically alter someone’s life!
My father is one of the best listeners and teachers I have ever known. He graduated #1 in his law school class while dating my mother and working about 30 hours per week to support himself financially. When I was growing up, several people who worked under my father’s leadership …
