🇮🇱 WHEN GOD LEADS YOU SOMEWHERE NEW

Sometimes God meets us in a place where life has become comfortable and says, “I am not finished with you yet.”

Standing in biblical Joppa, I’m reminded of Peter in Acts 10. God had already done something extraordinary here—but while Peter was praying, the Lord began preparing him for something completely new.

Peter couldn’t see what was waiting for him in Caesarea. He didn’t have the whole map. He simply needed enough faith to take the next step.

Perhaps you are facing a decision today or asking God for direction. You may not be able to see what comes next—but God can already be arranging things beyond what you can see.

My prayer for you from Israel is that the Lord will give you clear direction, fresh vision, and courage to follow wherever He leads.

Sometimes faith is simply saying yes to the next step.

Shalom from biblical Joppa,
Pastor Israel Pochtar 🇮🇱

Even in the heaviest moments, God’s promises remain.

The same God who promised to restore Israel is still at work today—and His mercy reminds us that there is hope for Israel, hope for the nations, and hope for every person who turns to Him.

There is hope because of Yeshua.

From Israel, Pastor Israel shares this simple but powerful reminder: God has not forgotten His promises.

“Praise the LORD, O Jerusalem! Praise your God, O Zion!” — Psalm 147:12

The word “Zion” has become controversial in much of the world today. But long before Zion became a word people argued about, it was a place God spoke about.

Scripture tells us of God’s love for Zion, His purposes for Jerusalem, and His promises concerning this city. The opinions of the world may change, but the Word of God does not.

And Psalm 147 gives us a beautiful picture:

“He has strengthened the bars of your gates; He has blessed your children within you.”

Praise. Protection. Family. Blessing.

Today, I am praying these same words over you and your family. May the Lord strengthen the gates around your home. May He watch over your children and grandchildren in the places where you cannot be with them. May He give you peace where there has been worry, and faith where there has been uncertainty.

From Jerusalem, we are also praying that this city will praise her God, that the people of Israel will come to know His salvation, and that the name of Yeshua will be lifted up from Zion.

The God who watches over Jerusalem is watching over you.

Ani Hu (אֲנִי הוּא, pronounced: ah-NEE hoo) means “I am He.” Throughout Isaiah, God uses these simple words to remind His people of something we also need to remember today: circumstances change, but He does not.

In Isaiah 43:10, God calls Israel to know, believe, and understand that “I am He.” Later, in Isaiah 46:4, He promises that even into old age, He will continue to carry and sustain His people.

Then we come to Yeshua. In John 8:24, His words in Hebrew read: “Im lo ta’aminu ki Ani Hu” — “If you do not believe that I am He…”

The connection is powerful. Our faith is not built upon knowing what tomorrow will bring, but upon knowing who He is.

When the road is dark, Yeshua is still the Light. When we need direction, He is still the Good Shepherd. When everything seems uncertain, He remains faithful.

Circumstances change. He does not.

What do you do when you reach the end of what you can do?

When you cannot fix the situation, undo the past, or see the way forward, Isaiah 43 gives us a beautiful reminder:

“I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions…” — Isaiah 43:25

In Hebrew, it begins Anochi, Anochi — “I, I Myself.”

God draws our eyes away from our own strength and back to Him. I am the One who makes a way. I am the One who restores. I am the One who forgives.

As we begin this new week, perhaps we don’t need another reminder of everything we still need to fix. We need to remember who God is.

The Creator is still able to create something new. The One who made a way before can make a way again.

Anochi, Anochi — I Myself.

May the Lord strengthen you and lead you in His peace this week.

26/08/2026

When David walked onto the battlefield to face Goliath, everything about the situation seemed to favor the giant. Goliath was an experienced warrior, heavily armed and intimidating. David was young and carried no sword. Yet David knew something everyone else on that battlefield had forgotten.

“You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the LORD of hosts.” — 1 Samuel 17:45

The Hebrew name David used was Adonai Tzevaot (יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת, pronounced: ah-doh-NIGH tseh-vah-OHT)—“The LORD of Hosts.”

For forty days, Israel had listened to Goliath’s threats until their attention became fixed on how powerful their enemy appeared. David saw the same giant, but he measured him against the greatness of God.

Fear can work the same way in our lives. The longer we stare at a problem, the larger it can become in our minds. We begin measuring God’s power against the size of our circumstances instead of measuring our circumstances against the greatness of God.

Adonai Tzevaot turns our eyes back to Him. The Lord is not intimidated by what intimidates us. He is not overwhelmed by what overwhelms us. Our confidence is not in our own strength, resources, or ability—it is in Him.

Whatever stands before you this week, remember: you do not need to pretend that the giant is small. You simply need to remember that your God is greater.

Let David’s confidence become your declaration:

Adonai Tzevaot—the LORD of Hosts is my God. My confidence is in Him.

What happened in the biblical city of Ashdod—and why does its story still matter today?

In 1 Samuel 5, the Philistines brought the captured Ark of the Covenant to Ashdod and placed it in the temple of Dagon as a trophy of victory. By morning, their idol was lying facedown before the Ark.

Centuries later, Ashdod appears again in Scripture under its Greek name, Azotus. This time, Acts 8:40 tells us that Philip came through the city proclaiming the Good News of Yeshua.

The city where Dagon once fell became a place where the Gospel was proclaimed.

Today, we are standing in that same Ashdod, where the message of Yeshua is still being shared and lives are still being changed.

Join Pastor Israel Pochtar from biblical Ashdod as we discover a powerful truth that connects the Old Testament, the New Testament, and Israel today:

God is greater, Yeshua is still saving, and the story of His Kingdom is still being written.

📖 1 Samuel 5
📖 Acts 8:40

“Justice, justice you shall pursue.” — Deuteronomy 16:20

What does God look for in those who lead—and in each of us?

In this week’s Torah reading, Parashat Shoftim (Deuteronomy 16:18–21:9), Moses speaks about righteous judges, humble leaders, the Prophet like Moses, and the importance of listening to God’s voice.

This portion reminds us that biblical justice begins with the heart. God calls us to reject corruption, walk with integrity, show mercy, and remain humble before His Word.

It also contains a remarkable promise of a coming Prophet like Moses—a passage that points us toward Yeshua.

🎥 Join Pastor Israel for this week’s Torah teaching as we discover how these ancient words continue to speak into our lives today.

Have you ever prayed for something so long that you began to wonder, Lord, have You heard me?

Isaiah gives us a beautiful picture:

“Therefore the LORD will wait, that He may be gracious to you.” — Isaiah 30:18

We often think about us waiting for God. But Scripture reminds us that even in the waiting, God is not absent. What feels like silence does not mean He has stopped working, and what feels like delay does not mean He has forgotten you.

Here in Israel, we have seen the faithfulness of God across generations. His promises have not expired—and neither has His faithfulness toward you.

As we begin this new week, perhaps you cannot see the whole road ahead. You may still be waiting for an answer or wondering what your next step should be. But you do not need to see the whole road to trust the One who leads you.

“This is the way, walk in it.” — Isaiah 30:21

▶️ I invite you to watch this message and begin the week encouraged: God hears you, He is faithful, and He has not forgotten you.
