Pro Life Partners In Israel: Be’ad Chaim
Feb 15th
Here is an update from our Israeli Pro-Life partner Sandy Shoshani:
New Babies! We welcomed 37 new babies into our growing Be’ad Chaim family.
My friends, I believe that God is calling us to stand in the gap as intercessors for His people. The heart of God grieves over the nearly 150 daily abortions, the sexual immorality, the homosexuality boasted of in our streets, and the evil that is being called good. If we will not stand in the gap, who will? Let us call out to God for repentant hearts and for brave individuals who are sold out for Him and will speak the truth.
New Babies! We welcomed 37 new babies into our growing Be’ad Chaim family since the summer:
* In September, 6 baby girls (including one set of twins) and 2 boys!
* In October, 4 baby girls and six boys!
* In November, 6 baby girls and 3 baby boys!
* In January, 2 boys and 3 girls in Jerusalem, a boy in Beersheva, a boy & a girl in Acco, a girl in Tel Aviv & a girl in Kiryat Motzkin (near Haifa).
We thank God for each of these precious children whose lives were spared from abortion.
Blessing Israeli Believers is privileged to be able to partner with such a wonderful ministry and be involved in praying for these children and helping to support the needs of the mothers. Here are some prayer points to lift up to our Father:
We thank God for these children whose lives were spared from abortion.
* Pray for social workers, army officers, guidance counselors, doctors and nurses who will recommend alternatives to women in crisis pregnancy and not coerce them to abort.
* Thank you for praying for 3-year-old Anava, who successfully and miraculously underwent open heart surgery this month. Pray for total healing, especially for stabilized blood pressure and that the leak in her aorta would heal.
* As the rent increases on our Jerusalem office, please pray that we will have wisdom to know whether to continue renting, or to purchase another property.
* Pray for protection for our staff and volunteers, especially as we increase our street outreaches and use more visual images to influence public opinion about abortion.
Thanks to all of you who pray and support the great work our Father has allowed us to be a part of!! How exciting are the days ahead!!
From all of us at Blessing Israeli Believers…
For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal (material) things. Romans 15:26-27
The Poor Saints In Jerusalem

Daniel & Rachel Goldstein BIB Partners
B.I.B. Partners: Daniel & Rachel Goldstein
Think of things in your home you take for granted—a refrigerator, micro-wave oven, a bed to sleep in at night. Then please remember there are brothers and sisters in Jesus Christ in Jerusalem that are in need of these things. And ask our Savior if He would have you be part of fulfilling a Bible passage that has only been possible in two generations: the first one and THIS ONE!!! There have not been believers in Jerusalem like today since the first century!
Basic needs met by Blessing Israeli Believers
Romans 15:26-27 For it hath pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. It hath pleased them verily; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in material things.
Please stop today for just a moment and pray for Daniel and Rachel Goldstein who are helping the poor saints in Jerusalem.
Romans 9:29 And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Hosts had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
Ariel’s Yeshua Project
Feb 1st
Ariel’s Yeshua Project
We have reported on Ariel’s Yeshua Project in the past. We would like to give a brief explanation for those who have not yet heard of it and an update on a financial need that some of you are helping to meet!
The Yeshua Project is a booklet of truths that help to overcome objections often raised to Yeshua Adonai (Lord Jesus) being Israel’s Messiah. Some of those objections are “God could never become a man”, or “If the Messiah is supposed to bring peace how could Messiah have come and there still be such trouble in Israel and the world?”
This special Project has many related financial obligations. One of those is a $2,300 graphics bill that must be covered so the work can move forward. Due to many who have given so generously BIB is going to be able to meet this need. How very blessed we are that together we can help reach Israel with the love of their Messiah and overcome objections with the truth of His Word!!!
Ariel's Yeshua Project
Please pray for the first Yeshua Project booklet to go far and wide. And the second booklet that it might be the “two” of a “one-two” punch knocking out the untrue objections to believing in our glorious Messiah Yeshua!
Blessings In our Messiah Yeshua’s Glorious Name,
Brother Dov
Encouragement From The LORD

Encouragement From The LORD
I love the encouragement which Adonai gives us in Deuteronomy 32:1-3 “Give ear, O heavens, and I will speak, and let the earth hear the words of my mouth. May my teaching drop as the rain, my speech distill as the dew, like gentle rain upon the tender grass, and like showers upon the herb. For I will proclaim the name of the LORD; ascribe greatness to our God!”
I also enjoy reading in Isaiah 55:10, but actually the whole chapter.
1 “Come, everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and he who has no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
2 Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good, and delight yourselves in rich food.
3 Incline your ear, and come to me; hear, that your soul may live; and I will make with you an everlasting covenant, my steadfast, sure love for David.
4 Behold, I made him a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander for the peoples.
5 Behold, you shall call a nation that you do not know, and a nation that did not know you shall run to you, because of the LORD your God, and of the Holy One of Israel, for he has glorified you.
6 “Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near;
7 let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that he may have compassion on him, and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the LORD.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 “For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven and do not return there but water the earth, making it bring forth and sprout, giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
11 so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
12 “For you shall go out in joy and be led forth in peace; the mountains and the hills before you
shall break forth into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress; instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle;
and it shall make a name for the LORD, an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.”

Blessing God’s Chosen People
What a blessing it is to know the Lord and understand that He loves us and has a plan for us as well as a plan for the ages, which His Word has revealed through time for all those who have an “ear to hear” what He has to say.
Recently the Lord showed me a scripture in Joel 1:1 and I am repeating it again as I believe that it is important for us to reflect upon. “Hear this, you elders, And give ear, all you inhabitants of the land! Has anything like this happened in your days, Or even in the days of your fathers?
What an amazing scripture to read and consider as well as meditate upon. We see that after almost 2,000 years the state ofIsraelhas come back into existence and even more recently we are seeing prophecy unfolding before our very eyes. I think that this scripture in Joel 1:1 asks us a very important question. Just what are we seeing come to pass in our days?
Could we be the very generation that will see the return of our God as it is written in His Holy Book? It is all there for us to read, meditate upon, and study to show ourselves approved, so that we can be a witness to a dying world of His love for us. I’m reminded of our need to study His Word and His promises to us in Psalm 1.
1 Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful;
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night.
3 He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he does shall prosper.
4 The ungodly are not so, but are like the chaff which the wind drives away.
5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, but the way of the ungodly shall perish.
I love this Psalm as it is an encouragement to read His Word, the Torah, and I appreciate the encouragement that we will bear fruit in season. We can stand on the promises of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the same God that is bringing the Jews back into the land He gave to Abraham as an everlasting covenant. We have seen the Lord working in the hearts of Jewish people and are seeing more and more Jews in Israel come to accept that Yeshua is who He says He is, and we have seen that community grow from a small number to somewhere in the 15,000 range in Israel today. And more and more Jewish people inIsraelare putting faith in Yeshua everyday.
The apostle Paul wrote a letter almost 2,000 years ago which we can read in Romans 15:25-27 where he talks about helping the Jewish Believers inJerusalemin his day. 25 But now I am going toJerusalemto minister to the saints. 26 For it pleased those fromMacedoniaand Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are inJerusalem. 27 It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in material things.
God has said in His Word that “for out of Zion the law shall go forth, and the Word of the Lord from Jerusalem” , read Micah 4:1-3
Well, I believe that we are living in exciting times and for all those who love Israel, please pray for not only Israel but for the Jewish Israeli believers in Yeshua who are doing the work of the Gospel in Israel. how exciting is that? But please consider not only praying but giving as the apostle Paul speaks about in Romans 15. Help bless an Israeli believer by sharing out of your abundance and as the Lord challenges us in Malachi 3 to put Him to the test and see if He will not open for you the floodgates of heaven and pour out for you a blessing far beyond your needs.
Thank you in advance for your prayers and financial support by Blessing Israeli Believers!
