- Rick Joyner on Bob Jones
Bob & Bonnie Jones
Love For His People Editor's Note: Rick shares in this episode prophetic words Bob Jones spoke years before it came to pass. The property Rick lived on, Lamb's Chapel, in what is now Ballantyne (south Charlotte, NC) is the same land the Lord gave to All Nations Church in 1994, with Mahesh and Bonnie Chavda, and myself.
That property was also in fulfillment of a dream the Lord had given to me in 1991, showing me the land and buildings while we were yet in Fort Lauderdale, Fl and looking for a re-location for Mahesh Chavda Ministries/All Nations Church.
You can read about that in my 1st book, THE PROMISE", and more in my 2nd book, AHAVA LOVE LETTERS.
The Lord indeed speaks to us through dreams, visions, and prophetic words.

Click here to watch: The Oldest Holocaust Survivor, Alice Herz-Sommer's most inspirational moments and wisdom.
Alice Herz-Sommer, believed to be the oldest-known survivor of the Holocaust, died Sunday morning in London at age 110, a family member said. Herz-Sommer’s devotion to the piano and to her son sustained her through two years in a Nazi prison camp, and a film about her has been nominated for best short documentary at next week’s Academy Awards.
“We all came to believe that she would just never die,” said Frederic Bohbot, producer of the documentary “The Lady in Number 6: Music Saved My Life.” ”There was no question in my mind, ‘would she ever see the Oscars.’”
An accomplished pianist, Herz-Sommer, her husband and her son were sent from Prague in 1943 to a concentration camp in the Czech city of Terezin — Theresienstadt in German — where inmates were allowed to stage concerts in which she frequently starred.
An estimated 140,000 Jews were sent to Terezin and 33,430 died there. About 88,000 were moved on to Auschwitz and other death camps, where most of them were killed. Herz-Sommer and her son, Stephan, were among fewer than 20,000 who were freed when the notorious camp was liberated by the Soviet army in May 1945.
Yet she remembered herself as “always laughing” during her time in Terezin, where the joy of making music kept them going.
“These concerts, the people are sitting there, old people, desolated and ill, and they came to the concerts and this music was for them our food. Music was our food. Through making music we were kept alive,” she once recalled.
“When we can play it cannot be so terrible.”
Though she never learned where her mother died after being rounded up, and her husband died of typhus at Dachau, in her old age she expressed little bitterness.
“We are all the same,” she said. “Good, and bad.”
Herz-Sommer was born on Nov. 26, 1903, in Prague, and started learning the piano from her sister at age 5.
Alice married Leopold Sommer in 1931. Their son was born in 1937, two years before the Nazi invasion of Czechoslovakia.
“This was especially for Jews a very, very hard time. I didn’t mind, because I enjoyed to be a mother and I was full of enthusiasm about being a mother, so I didn’t mind so much,” she said.
Jews were allowed to shop for only half an hour in the afternoon, by which time the shops were empty. Most Jewish families were forced to leave their family apartments and were crammed into one apartment with other families, but her family was allowed to keep its home.
“We were poor, and we knew that they will send us away, and we knew already in this time that it was our end,” she said.
In 1942, her 73-year-old mother was transported to Terezin, then a few months later to Treblinka, an extermination camp.
“And I went with her of course till the last moment. This was the lowest point in my life. She was sent away. Till now I don’t know where she was, till now I don’t know when she died, nothing.
“When I went home from bringing her to this place I remember I had to stop in the middle of the street and I listened to a voice, an inner voice: ‘Now, nobody can help you, not your husband, not your little child, not the doctor.’”
From then on, she took refuge in the 24 Etudes of Frederic Chopin, a dauntingly difficult monument of the repertoire. She labored at them for up to eight hours a day.
She recalled an awkward conversation on the night before her departure to the concentration camp with a Nazi who lived upstairs and called to say that he would miss her playing.
She remembered him saying: “‘I hope you will come back. What I want to tell you is that I admire you, your playing, hours and hours, the patience and the beauty of the music.’”
Other neighbors, she said, stopped by only to take whatever the family wasn’t able to bring to the camp.
“So the Nazi was a human, the only human. The Nazi, he thanked me,” she said.
The camp’s artistic side was a blessing; young Stephan, then 6, was recruited to play a sparrow in an opera.
“My boy was full of enthusiasm,” she recalled. “I was so happy because I knew my little boy was happy there.”
The opera was “Brundibar,” a 40-minute piece for children composed by Hans Krasa, a Czech who was also imprisoned in the camp. It was first performed in Prague but got only one other performance before he was interned.
“Brundibar” became a showpiece for the camp, performed at least 55 times including once when Terezin, which had been extensively spruced up for the occasion, was inspected by a Red Cross delegation in June 1944.
The opera featured in a 1944 propaganda film which shows more than 40 young performers filling the small stage during the finale.
Herz-Sommer’s life inspired two books: “A Garden of Eden in Hell” (2006) by Melissa Mueller and Reinhard Piechocki, and “A Century of Wisdom: Lessons from the Life of Alice Herz-Sommer, the World’s Oldest Living Holocaust Survivor” (2012) by Caroline Stoessinger.
In 1949, she left Czechoslovakia to join her twin sister Mizzi in Jerusalem. She taught at the Jerusalem Conservatory until 1986, when she moved to London.
Her son, who changed his first name to Raphael after the war, made a career as a concert cellist. He died in 2001.

Is Christian Zionism Driven by Greed? - ISRAEL TODAY
Is Christian Zionism Driven by Greed?
Monday, February 24, 2014 | Ryan Jones
One of the organizers of the upcoming Christ at the Checkpoint in Bethlehem recently made the astonishing claim that Christian Zionism, the support of the Jews in their prophetically-mandated national restoration, is driven by little more than greed.
Stephen Sizer is an Anglican priest, a man who purports to believe in the Word of God.
And yet, in an interview with Iraq’s Aletejah TV, Sizer labeled as “nonsense” any theology that would take at face value what God called his irrevocable promises to national Israel.
Christians who do this, said Sizer, are just in it for themselves.
“A lot of Christian Zionism was based on greed,” Sizer informed his Muslim audience. “We want God to bless us. If we bless the Jews, God will bless us. And that’s a very popular theology in America. It’s called ‘prosperity gospel,’ the idea that God is blessing us materially because we support the Jewish people.”
The whole idea, Sizer continued, is “nonsense theologically, but if you want to be wealthy it’s very tempting. It’s like gambling, it can become addictive.”
Stephen Sizer is one of the chief proponents and organizers of the Christ at the Checkpoint conference hosted by Bethlehem Bible College. In the past, Christ at the Checkpoint has billed itself as a response to Christian Zionism, and Sizer’s remarks make clear what kind of response that is.
The Sizer interview was first reported on by our friends at the Messianic blog Rosh Pina Project. Head over to the blog and get their take on Sizer’s slanderous views >>

Let Love Win by Tiffany Ann Lewis (Identity Network)
Let Love Win
by Tiffany Ann Lewis
"A brother offended is harder to win than a strong city, and contentions are like the bars of a castle." (Proverbs 18:19)
There seems to be some difficulty in the translation of this text. Some scholars see the text as reading, "A brother that is helped by his brother, is like a strong city: and judgments are like the bars of cities." (Douay-Rheims Bible) The Aramaic Bible in Plain English translates it like this; "A brother is helped by his brother, like a city by its fortress, and they hold it like the bars of a fortress."
Either way, what seems crystal clear to me is that offences such as bitterness, resentment, and un-forgiveness, can become a type of prison if left unresolved. Oh sure, at first it feels like those bars are protecting the heart from more hurt, but the truth is, they are preventing individuals from the ultimate relational goal that God has designed. God designed human beings for fellowship with Him and each other. "It is not good for man to be alone…" (Genesis 2:18)
Forgiving someone may be one of the hardest choices a Christian will ever make. With anger, hurt, and a very real sense of injustice fueling the fire of our emotions, we are faced with a very difficult decision…to forgive or not to forgive.
The specific forgiveness that I sense the Lord speaking about is something more than turning the other cheek; more than not holding a grudge. I believe the Lord is calling us to a forgiveness that would be willing to extend love again. Unfortunately, depending on the level of hurt you have experienced, it may feel like a burden you simply can't bear.
Learning Through Experience
The heart is a funny little organ. Responsible for sustaining life, it also has been likened as the source of our emotions too. We learn by every experience we go through. Pain teaches us some very powerful lessons in life. We burn our hand and the pain teaches us how to handle the stove. We fall off our bicycle and the pain teaches us how to balance on two skinny wheels.
Now, just because we have experienced pain does not mean that we will never use a stove or ride a bike again, oh but the heart…when it gets hurt it doesn't want to love again. Sometimes it's just easier to build walls and hide behind them than to feel the pain of a broken heart. The problem with that solution is that love isn't getting in nor is it getting out.
Now, just because we have experienced pain does not mean that we will never use a stove or ride a bike again, oh but the heart…when it gets hurt it doesn't want to love again. Sometimes it's just easier to build walls and hide behind them than to feel the pain of a broken heart. The problem with that solution is that love isn't getting in nor is it getting out.
It's time to break out of the prison of offence and let love win.
The litmus test to all this is love. Are we willing to extend our heart again? You see, it is possible to share your time with someone but still withhold your heart from the relationship. We can hide our heart and protect it from pain while walking around with tender mercy, kindness, and humility. However, to live this life that Christ has called us to we must extend love again.
Above all else we are called to love.
"Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; 13 bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. 14 But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection." (Colossians 3:12-14)

(Colossians 3:12-14)
The Core of Forgiveness
Forgiveness that does not extend the heart again isn't really forgiveness at all because love and restoration is at the core of forgiveness. Let me explain what I call "the grace factor of forgiveness". The Greek word used here in Colossians for forgiving is "charizomai" (Strong's #5483). Charizomai is a grace word, it comes from the same root as grace, "charis" (Strong's #5485) and means: to do a favor, to show kindness unconditionally, to give freely, to grant forgiveness, and to forgive freely.
In other words, forgiveness is an intentional act of releasing one another from the debt that the offence caused. It is refusing to require the penalty due, literally, to let it go. The grace factor of forgiveness is giving the offender what they don't deserve…forgiveness.

Beloved, forgiveness is a choice. In that moment the pain may or may not go away. We don't have the power to heal our heart but we serve the One who does. He has called us to forgive others as He has forgiven us. Therefore, in His love and mercy, He will supply what we need in order to respond to His request.
Our power is only the power of choice. It may take years to experience the emotional freedom and healing of forgiveness but it starts with us making a choice…choosing to let love win. Amen and Amen.
