Did you know that less 1% of Jews in Israel believe in Jesus, in Yeshua, as Messiah?  That’s right, less than 1% of Jews in Israel are Messianic Jews.

That’s a small number, but we learn from Scripture that God does big things with small numbers.

We see an example of this in Judges 7 when Gideon takes a meager army of 300 men to fight against Midian. The feat was laughable, but Gideon and his army obeyed the Lord and they were victorious!

God does BIG things with small numbers.

In the book of Acts, the Lord begins with a small number of 120 followers who after experiencing the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost went out and “turned the world upside-down” with the Gospel Message.

Again, God does BIG things with small numbers.

Right now, the Messianic Jewish community in Israel is small in number, less than 1% of the nation’s population. However, God can once again do BIG things with small numbers.

Would you join Lifting up Zion in blessing the remnant? There are two ways you can do this.

  • We ask you to pray for the salvation of Israel.

The Apostle Paul says:

Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
Romans 10:1

It is our honor and great privilege to pray for the salvation of Israel. Will you join us in making it a part of your regular prayers?

We have an absolutely free prayer guide on our website that you can download to help you start praying for Israel, and especially for the salvation of Israel.

  • We invite you to partner financially with the Messianic Jewish community through Lifting up Zion.

Paul also says,

For Macedonia and Achaia have been pleased to make some contribution for the poor among the saints at Jerusalem. For they were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to be of service to them in material blessings.
Romans 15:26-27

I believe it is an honor and privilege to financially support the ministries of Messianic Jews who are boldly proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus, Yeshua, to all of Israel.

When you partner with Lifting up Zion, you are supporting the preaching of the Gospel to the Jew.

Finally, I will leave you with the words of the Apostle Paul:

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
Romans 1:16
