Secrets Surrounding the Messiah's Birth - Ron Cantor MESSIAH'S MANDATE



I AM SO EXCITED!!!

I have been studying the Birth of Yeshua and it is fascinating. Over the past few years at this time, I get drawn into the story of Yeshua's birth. This year it exploded and sent me on a journey. There are so many myths and hidden truths, like:

  • The prophecy to Ruth!
  • To true identity of the Shepherds and the Tower of the Flock!
  • There was no innkeeper that rejected the pregnant couple!
  • The mystery of the Passover Lambs!

There are seven short blogs and I trust that it will make you fall in love with Yeshua all over again! It did with me. If you do celebrate Christmas, then this would be a great read to your whole family Christmas Eve or morning.

LoveMusic! - Carrie Underwood & Michael W. Smith Sing "All Is Well"- CMA Country Christmas, ABC

CMA Country Christmas, ABC

Dec. 14, 2018 (Jerusalem time)

Greetings LoveMusic! Christmas celebrants,

On Dec. 1, 2014, a very special ABC TV Christmas show was broadcast. My good wife Laurie and I watched it, as we annually enjoy any Christmas show that lifts up the Name of Jesus. And you know whenever Michael W. Smith is singing, His Name will be lifted up.

We were really delighted with Carrie Underwood joining in for the performance. They did a fantastic job together! Carrie was awesome!

As you listen, bless the Lord Jesus Christ with all your heart, soul and mind, knowing that only because of Him can we have the true peace, joy, and love that Christmas represents. After all, Jesus (Yeshua) coming the first time means He is coming back again.

Oh, how I look forward to that day - when He comes not as a babe in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger, but comes riding on His mighty white stead, leading the saints from all generations to take up His rightful throne in Jerusalem, Israel, on the mountain of all mountains, where His throne will be established. He will rule the nations with righteousness and truth!

Come again quickly Lord Jesus, Yeshua HaMashiach!

Ahava (love) and shalom (peace),

KING & COUNTRY Christmas | LIVE from Phoenix - O Come, O Come Emmanuel


KING & COUNTRY Christmas | LIVE from Phoenix - O Come, O Come Emmanuel


Dec. 10, 2018

Dear LoveMusic! loved ones,

These two are at the top of the charts. No wonder. They sing the message of Lord Jesus, and people are thus drawn to what their hearts sing out.

"O Come, O Come Emmanuel" has always been one of my favorite Christmas songs. In Hebrew, "El" is God. 

Emmanu-El. Come God! And ransom, captive, Israel. But you already have! YOU came the first time, paid the price to get them, paid the ransom for them and all who call on the Name of the Lord Yeshua. Now may they see that you are the Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach.

May all be free. Walk in the freedom obtained for you by the Living God of Israel!

Ahava and shalom,

Steve Martin

God's Perfect Timing - Charles Gardner ISRAEL TODAY

God's Perfect Timing

Sunday, December 24, 2017 |  Charles Gardner  ISRAEL TODAY
Whatever you may think as harassed shoppers or parents, Christmas does not come too soon. It’s an example of God’s perfect timing, though I appreciate that the Messiah’s actual birthday was more likely to have been during the Feast of Tabernacles.
There was precise timing in the divine coming nevertheless. Naturally speaking, the Christ child should have been born in Nazareth. But because Caesar intervened and ordered a census, the holy family were forced to travel some 80 miles to Bethlehem (the town of David, from which their lineage was traced), thus fulfilling the prophecy of Micah: “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you will come for me one who will be ruler over Israel, whose origins are from of old, from ancient times.” (Micah 5.2) 
The stars lined up with such precision, and in such brilliance, that the Wise Men were able to follow the light all the way to the little town near Jerusalem, where the flawless sheep were traditionally prepared for Passover. And the shepherds on the surrounding hills were perfectly placed to respond to the angelic call to come and worship the new-born King, also to become the Good Shepherd leading his flock to fresh pasture.
Among the precious gifts the Wise Men brought was myrrh, a prophetic statement of the Messiah’s sacrificial death to come as the ultimate Passover Lamb, when he would die on the cross for the sins of the world – myrrh was used for embalming the deceased for burial.
Bethlehem means ‘House of Bread’ and indeed Jesus was to describe himself as the “bread of life” (John 6.35) whose body (symbolised by the bread of communion) would be given for us, his death bringing us life. Jesus adds: “Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.”
So the shepherds in the fields of Bethlehem and the Wise Men led to the infant King through a once-in-a-blue-moon lining up of the stars were all part of God’s perfect timing. Everything in God’s perfect plan was in the right place at the right time.
The Apostle Paul, referring to the Messiah’s sacrifice, writes: “You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly.” (Romans 5.6)
The gift of frankincense, also brought by the Wise Men, represents the fragrance of God’s presence and speaks of Immanuel, God with us, which is also the central thought of the Feast of Tabernacles celebrating the time when God made his presence known to the wandering Israelites in the wilderness – providing food, water and shelter in the parched desert environment.
Now, through the one born to be King (hence the gift of gold), God has actually taken on flesh to tabernacle (or live) among us. And at the end of his earthly ministry, the risen Lord promises to be ‘with us’ (his followers) forever, until the end of the age (Matthew 28.20).
The reality of God being with us came home very strongly to my wife Linda and I during our recent extended stay in Israel caused by visa problems. Not only did we base ourselves at a guesthouse called Beit Immanuel (Beit = house) but we also learnt perhaps as never before that He really is ‘with you’ when you trust him absolutely.
After all, we weren’t even sure if our bank account could stand up to the pressure, but in the midst of the storm, when the wind and tide is against you, Jesus comes into your boat and says: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” (Mark 6.50)
When you cast all your cares on him, he does indeed care for you. (1 Peter 5.7) He is in control – even over immigration officials and government departments.
And so we were able to enjoy the extra rest, relaxation and beachside restaurants the Lord had graciously provided for us. And documents we needed to board our re-booked flight home arrived in the nick of time – God isn’t in a hurry, but he is punctual. He came at just the right time for you and I to receive him and make him Lord of our lives.
The Apostle John records: “He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God – children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband’s will, but born of God. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us…” (John 1.11-14)
The new-born King of 2,000 years ago desires to make his presence known this Christmas with many new-born believers!
Why not turn the words of this carol into a personal prayer? “Oh holy child of Bethlehem, descend to me I pray; cast out my sin and enter in, be born in me today.”
