To Bless Israel is not optional; it is Covenantal

Dear Friends, I want to present this month’s Truth for the Journey for November, which is also an introduction to our latest book called “Remind them of His Covenant Faithfulness—Israel the Church and the Kingdom of God.” This is a now-word as there is much conflict in regards to “Israel” and “has the Church replaced it?” A wonderful Read! This revelation will lay a solid foundation in your lives.

All of my dear patrons and partners will receive a free copy of this book in time for Christmas. We love you and appreciate you all.

PS: And pray for us that God may open a door(s) for our message that we may proclaim the mysteries of Christ and give us the boldness to proclaim it clearly (Colossians 4:2-4). 

To Bless Israel is not optional; it is Covenantal

To bless Israel is not optional; it is covenantal. When the Church forgets her root, she loses her fruit. The Church’s obligation to Israel calls believers to tangible expressions of covenant awareness—through prayer, compassion, and honour. To pray for Jerusalem’s peace is to align with God’s redemptive plan. To stand against antisemitism is to stand with the God of Abraham. To bless Israel is to participate in the very promise through which the nations are blessed.

This humility shapes both evangelism and eschatology. Again and again, we must repeat that the Church’s mission is not to replace Israel, but to walk beside her until the fullness of redemption comes. As Paul wrote, “Salvation has come to the Gentiles to provoke Israel to jealousy” (Rom 11:11).

God’s covenant faithfulness to Israel is His signature upon history. What He began with Abraham, He will complete through Christ for all nations. The Church’s witness, therefore, must be radiant with gratitude—not pride—for gratitude should ever express itself in love, displaying the same mercy that first reached her. Blessing Israel isn’t sentimental—it’s covenantal. The Church was grafted in, not begun anew; to forget Israel is to forget our root and is to develop spiritual amnesia! 

Rejecting replacement theology is not an academic correction; it is repentance—a turning of the heart toward the faithfulness of God. The Church’s future health depends on recovering her covenant memory. To love Israel is to love the God who bound Himself to her. To pray for her peace is to align with His eternal purpose.

Theological humility, moral integrity, and prophetic clarity all flow from this recognition: that God’s word cannot fail. The same faithfulness that preserves Israel sustains the Church and secures the world’s hope. Thus, continuity with Israel is not optional—it is essential to a true understanding of redemption history. When we honour Israel, we are not idolising a nation (which is sometimes the accusation); we are acknowledging God’s covenant faithfulness. His promises to Abraham are the anchor of global redemption.

It is in our own best interest!

Zion is God’s chosen place—not a political slogan. 
The Church and Israel are not rivals, but branches nourished by the same root. 
God is faithful, even when HIs people are misunderstood. 
The Spirit is gathering, not replacing.
Our God is a covenant-keeping God. 

This is the story of mercy that endures—from Zion to every nation.

    As far as Israel is concerned, we are one BLOOD AND ONE FAMILY. We are all children of our FATHER ABRAHAM. We will continue to pray for the PEACE OF ISRAEL
