whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.” Therefore Israel will be abandoned until the time when she who is in labor gives birth and the rest of his brothers return to join the Israelites. He will stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God. And they will live securely, for then his greatness will reach to the ends of the earth. And he will be their peace. —Micah 5:2-5
Also:
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
—Isaiah 9:6 A child who would be called Mighty God?
How can you deny that this passage is speaking about Someone who is of divine origin? You can’t!
I also like to point to Jeremiah’s pas- sage describing God’s new covenant with the People of Israel, in which He will remember their sins no more. Here again is a reference to the grace God offers through the atoning sacrifice of His Son.
“No longer will a man teach his neighbor, or a man his brother, say- ing, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest,” declares the LORD. “For I will forgive their wick- edness and will remember their sins no more.”
—Jeremiah 31:34
4. They don’t care what you know, until . . .
Another great way to reach the Jewish
People for Yeshua is to show them His love. I’m sure you’ve heard the old saying, “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.” This is the absolute truth. Yeshua’s own brother, author of the book of James, addresses this when he writes,
Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?
—James 2:15-16 The apostle John asks,
If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him, how can the love of God be in him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.
—1 John 3:17-18 Once people are secure in the knowl-
edge of our love and respect for them, they cannot deny God’s power or His mercy. Seeds have been planted that will eventually produce an abundant harvest of souls. Pray. Ask the Lord to lead and guide you to those who are open to the Good News. Ask Him to draw Jewish People to those whom He has prepared for the harvest and believe that spiritually blind eyes are being opened and spiritually deaf ears are opening—right now.
