1 -0- trip to Israel in 2018 (May 22 to 31) mit Elisabeth Syré (South Africa) and Redwan Shehadeh (Israel) and Anita Höfling (Germany) Flag of Israel flag of Jerusalem What are the expectations that links an Israel visitors with its journey? There are as many reasons, some of which will be listed: 1 I want to get to know the country and the many historical sites. 2 I would like to know the country and the people that so often occupy the politicians. 3 I want to get to know the places where Jesus worked. 4 I want to know and feel what it means that God chose this land and this people. 5 I want to join in the blessing of Abraham. 6 I want to commit myself on the ground and with my resources for Israel and succor those that stand surrounded by enemies and threatened daily. 7 I want to be obedient to God who has called me for a service here. 8 I want to recognize the way of God with Israel more and support Israel in this way in love, because Israel and the nations are connected by the plan of God. Me personally are the points 4,5,6 and 8 most importantly and they have marked the journey with Elizabeth. The tour group came together at the invitation of Elisabeth Syré. It was a multinational group from South Africa, Switzerland, Austria, Germany and Israel. Elizabeth is Holo caust survivor, she was hidden as a child in Holland from the Nazis. For years, it is their duty to testify internationally the truth about the God of Israel and His chosen people Jerusalem Mount of Olives has a beautiful view on Jerusalem. Who knows Jerusalem, which resonates with much of what he has already heard about the past, present and politics, and the future as it is prophetically predicted or politically threatened. If you look at the panorama, one sees no uniform planned city, but many tracks that do not really fit together. But that mankind has used to and it's called multicultural. All three Abrahamic religions have left their mark and are tangible and always audible. Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Syré 1

2 Jesus had also seen from the Mount of Olives to the city and wept over it, because he saw how far they had moved away from their covenant with their God and would therefore be destroyed. And this destruction could not even turn after his death - it is estimated about 15,000 - jesus believing Jews. In Sodom and Gomorrah 10 righteous would have been enough to turn the disaster into grace. In Jerusalem 15,000 righteous were unable to spare the city. What is justice? For us, justice is predictable (almost). Among the Egyptians, for example, a balance was shown were weighed with the good and bad works. A constructed by people heaven knows no divine love and can only be a kind of predictable or worse random system. But that is not our God, who created all things by his word. And it was good!! God's justice is embedded - in our history - no in his healing story. When Jesus looks today from the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, is seen is quite different, but the spiritual atmosphere may be very similar. There are righteous sure there are many who deny him the Son of God and there are many single from their shops possessed. The spiritual atmosphere may be the same, and yet much has happened in the history of salvation God with his creatures. You could say the harvest is ripe! And harvesting means weed seeds and good grains are separated. This means for the Lord redeemed, we must rely on the and look, what those promised those who love the Messiah with all my heart and expect. This includes what Salomon has announced at the consecration of the first temple with prophetic inspiration of God. (2 Chronicles 6) 2. Chronik. 5,6 Since the day that I brought forth my people out of the land of Egypt I chose no city among all the tribes of Israel to build an house in, that my name might be there; neither chose I any man to be a ruler over my people Israel: 6 But I have chosen Jerusalem that my name might be there, and have chosen David to be over my people Israel.

3 -0.2- An election, blessing and vocation In one verse: " But I have chosen Jerusalem that my name might be there, each phrase has a special meaning: But In everyday language, the word "but" usually a negative Besdeutung:... "I tried but failed With God there is no failure Not even when we abuse our freedom to disobey God's love for us is everlasting and do not listen to why follows our human failure, a new chapter in the way with us a new opportunity that we can rely on Sun God says again to his people... whatever you are as faithful or unfaithful to her, I confirm my covenant and consecrate you a little further in my salvation plan. I have. God's promise! God is given to all power, all things came by his word. He is God, have it and we can not defend him. But our mission is to confess his dominion over our lives and to praise him and praise for everything we have received from him and recognized Chosen election is anything other than the fulfillment of requests. God begins in his plan of salvation something and chooses according to his purpose people, a people or a place where this should be done. We are wise if we affirm the acts of choice of God through our lives and promote. That is also the main motivation for this trip to Israel. that my name Everyone experiences God differently because God loves everyone as he is. God can be Father, Redeemer, doctor, comforter, helper, strength and much more. But his name includes everything that makes him and is possible in it. More of God does not exist!! Might be there God himself determines where his name lives. And it is hereby stated that it is a place. God hears us everywhere we call upon him. But this place is a special place of his presence. Jerusalem. lives here his name. This is still only partially visible, but in the invisible world, it is already a reality. If it is visible reality, which is a overflowing with God's holiness fulfilled place. And nothing does not fit into this holiness will survive. This cleaning will cause God himself, so that no one can boast, but he is praised and worshiped alone Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, it is true what is said about Jerusalem for the land of Israel. After these statements I will arrange the trip to Israel, not strictly on the timing, but after what arises from the importance of Jerusalem. By which we -1- places to encourage us with special blessing. -2- places where we start with prayer, praise and our present to be one with the promises. -3- place which symbolizes the return of the Messiah -1- places to encourage us with special blessing baptism - Yardenit baptism site in the Jordan. Even among the Jews there was a baptism, the mikvah, she served the cleansing from sin and impurity. John, who pointed to Jesus, baptism connected to the call to conversion. Although Jesus was without sin, he was baptized by John. Jesus the Spirit came as a dove and God known to him as his son. About half of the group have been baptized. This is not generally the custom in communities. Following the Old Testament traditions and because the belief, every biblical baptism has been made, there is nothing baptism several times to take in order to confirm its commitment and to face new under God's blessing. So had the two baptizer for every person baptized a word with a promise of God. Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 3

4 -1.2-blessing of marriage - The Wedding at Cana.Symbolic meanings (Text source: Prophetia.org) The Wedding at Cana took place on the third day after returning v on Jesus from the desert Bethabara. It therefore is an analogue to the resurrection of Jesus, which happened on the third day after His crucifixion. It means in a broader sense that Jesus will hold after three years with all his adherents and true lovers as an eternal groom a real wedding in their rebirth to eternal life. Just as Jesus the water frequented the wine, and the people will naturally moderate Paranormal be transformed into the mind by the word of Jesus mouth so the man lives after. Therefore, everyone should follow the advice exactly in his heart that Mary gave the servants, "is what he says to you, do the things!" Two Memorial churches (from israel.geo-guide.de)kana is an idyllic village where you drive too easily over, if you are not paying attention. Center of the town are the two churches, which are reminiscent of the first miracle at the beginning of the public ministry of Jesus. One is a Greek Orthodox church, which boasts the possession of two jars, one of which is believed that Jesus drank from them. The other is the wedding church of the Franciscans in the village center, decrease their foundations on a synagogue of the 4th century. Here, too, an old pitcher is shown, which might be a replica of a pitcher used in the miracles of Jesus. The chapel next to it is named for Nathanael and stands on the site where the tradition was for the house that Jesus disciple. Elizabeth knows in Cana family Gerasy who runs a shop. In this particular city for couples all couples were blessed on the roof of Schops under a Talit to consolidate its other common years Lords supper - the garden grave where Jesus was probably laid in the grave...traditionally, the Holy Sepulcher is considered the place where the grave of Jesus was. Various churches have their place there and share in the buildings. But the relationship is not unanimously and therefore not really peaceful. There was dispute as to who should administer the churches, the input key could only to agree that no one of them, but a Muslim family should manage the key. Sadly, Jesus' prayer for unity of his followers will be prevented and thus also prevents that the church is under the overflowing blessings of God. The Holy Sepulcher I see as a symbol of poverty and brokenness of the church of Jesus. The garden grave is the counterexample to the Holy Sepulcher. One can find a well-kept park-like grounds with a rock-hewn grave as it could be to make wealthy people. It is a place where you can stay to celebrate the Lord's Supper in various places.

5 Do different groups simultaneously on their assigned places. Although there will be no discussions, there is a peaceful, almost sacred atmosphere that gives some idea of what can be unity among siblings. <- At this particular-whose place also we celebrated the feast. -> Another grave with round stone as he was here.. -2-places where we start with prayer, praise and our present to be one with the promises. Jes.52,7 How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news of happiness, who publishes salvation, who says to Zion, Your God reigns. 8 The voice of your watchmen they lift up their voice; together they sing for joy; for eye to eye they see the return of the Lord to Zion 9 Break forth together into singing, you waste places of Jerusalem, for the Lord has comforted his people; he has redeemed Jerusalem.! In this chapter of Isaiah God calls us believers from the nations to be guardians of Zion or Israel. It is painted in a time when there is no peace, a time to rubble in Jerusalem. At first glance, one sees no debris. But the second glance: Where is the most holy place where the temple? Yes on the ruins of the temple is another temple, a temple of a God who can show its size not itself, but must be made large by his followers of the call before every misdeed that he is the greatest. In this situation, Israel is and we as appointed guardians of the nations today. We both have each brought with this situation in its own way, by having the federal government repeatedly broken with our God, the God of Abraham. But it is proclaimed in our God less clearly showed the time his love and his grace has retained something comes to an end. Peace will, divine Shalom is rampant. First, the Shalom will move into the relationship with our God. We have to be ready, but we can get it from us not reach. He wants to give us a new heart of flesh, so that we can live faithfully in his covenant. We can imagine in pictures and visions of how it will be. It's time to proclaim it and to cheer. This has happened on this trip a bit and we can practice it on and still practice, some more, some less. Blessed be God WORSHIP BOAT on the Sea of Galilee Daniel Carmel is a believer, a musician and a Jew. Daniel has led us in worship. It was a special gift to worship God with Jewish children in a fishing boat on the lake and dance.. Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 5

6 -2.2- Mount of Beatitudes. Here Jesus was often to teach. <- A wonderful view of the Sea of Galilee. -> A park lan with the Beatitudes to think about Capernaum. Capernaum is mentioned about 16 times in the Bible. Many important events took place in this fishing village. Jesus himself leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum. He taught there on the Sabbath in the synagogue. He healed many sick people, like the paralytic who was lowered through the roof or in-law of Peter. But he also cursed Capernaum because of their unbelief. Peter and his brother Andrew lived in this fishing village, after they had come from Bethsaida there. And John and James, the sons of Zebedee, were there fisherman by profession. Even Matthew, a former tax collector who later one of the 12 disciples of Jesus was sitting there in his customs house and cashed inches. All these texts show us that Capernaum played an importand role in the history of Jesus' time. (Text Bible School) Tents of mercy ministries Kehilat Poriya was started in May 2005 with a vision to build a home-based congregation which will teach the Word of God; offer the Lord's salvation; help people to love God with all their heart, soul and strength and to love their neighbors as themselves; to be governed by a plurality of elders; a true community (not just a series of meetings). We are modeling the congregation on our best sense of the first century church as described in the New Testament. "Poriya" is the Hebrew word for "fruitful". We are asking the Lord to help us live up to our name and give us fruit that will endure. The Lord directed us to be accountable within the Tents of Mercy family of congregations, and we are so grateful that He directed us in this way. The help, maturity and wisdom of the Tents of Mercy leadership have been a HUGE BLESSING Israelreise 2018 mit to Elisabeth us! Sysré 6 Text von tikkunministries

7 (Verbesserte GoogleTranslate Übersetzung) Kehilat Poriya wurde im Mai 2005 mit einer Vision begonnen, eine Haus Gemeinde zu bauen, die das Wort Gott lehrt; die Rettung durch den Herrn anbietet; den Menschen hilft, Gott zu lieben mit ganzem Herzen, Seele und Kraft und ihre Nächsten wie sich selbst zu lieben. Sie sollen durch eine Mehrzahl von Ältesten geleitet werden, eine wahre Gemeinschaft (nicht nur eine Reihe von Treffen) zu sein. Wir modellieren die Gemeinde nach unserem besten Wissen, wie die Kirche der ersten Jahrhunderte im Neuen Testament beschrieben wird. Poriya ist das hebräische Wort für fruchtbar. Wir bitten den Herrn, uns zu helfen unserem Namen gerecht zu werden und uns Frucht tragen zu lassen. Der Herr führte uns in der "Tents of Mercy" Familie für Gemeinden verantwortlich zu sein. Und wir sind so dankbar, dass er uns auf diesen Weg geführt hat. Die Hilfe, die Reife und Weisheit der "Tents of Mercy" Leiterschaft sind ein großer Segen für uns! Kibbutz Ein Gev The kibbutz is located on the Sea of Galilee at the foot of the Golan. Originally, there was no private property in Kibbutz, each got what he needed. On the Syrian border, he was also threatened and had to provide for his safety, that has now changed. The kibbutz has become more modern. This includes private property. The kibbutz is also open to tourists. There are guides with a train wherein both historic and current is shown. To conclude, there is also a simple restaurant. Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 7

8 Anyone who has open eyes, can not deny that God is faithful and stands by its promises. Only in this way it was possible that Israel could defend its borders against the surrounding enemies. Fidelity is not automatic, but an essential part of the relationship with us human beings, and especially to his people Israel. The relationship with their God and their prayers have certainly accompanied the protection of God. Israel is God's country, Israel for an inheritance. That's why no one can deliver. What happens if this is disregarded, shows what is happening in Gaza - Strip. Israel still has not fully occupied the Promised Land. That is why we are called as guards and worshipers to storm God and ask him that his promises are true. This also applies to the country as the heir of God. Each prayer can be led by the Spirit to reinforce this prayer campaign Mount Carmel Mount Carmel is particularly associated in the Bible with the prophet Elijah. First, the victory over the priests of Baal and then the rain after a long drought by his fervent prayer. 1. Kings Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel,! Let be known, that you art God in Israel and that I am thy servant, and that I have done all these things at thy word Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the LORD God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again. 38 Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench. 39 And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said : The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God! And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 8

9 Is this valley meant in the Bible? Relevation For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. 15 ( Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed! ) 16 And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon. In Revelation 16, verse 16, we read that the armies of the kings of the east are gathered in one place, "which is called in Hebrew Armageddon." "Armageddon" comes from the Greek version of the Hebrew name Har Megiddo (the prefix Har means "hill" or "mountain"). To understand why the armies of the world will gather there, we need to know the history of this place and its importance in the ancient world. (source) Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 9

10 Prayer for the country and praise in the chapel On the plateau above the chapel on Mount Carmel, you have a wonderful view over a large part of Israel. This is a place of change: Above we see the Valley of Jezreel, also known as the valley of Esdralon or valley Megiddo Ebenezer Home in Haifa for Holocaust survivors Elisabeth has relations with the head of the house and her group is welcome. The group with the participation and "Worship and dance" could prove to be the love of Jesus Nazareth Prayer in the synagogue where Jesus read from Isaiah 61. Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 10

11 -2.9- home with Pastor Redwan - total care Jericho After a miracle of Elisha in Jericho this source was named after him. 2. Kings 19 Now the men of the city said to Elisha, Behold, the situation of this city is pleasant, as my lord sees, but the water is bad, and the land is unfruitful. 20 He said, Bring me a new bowl, and put salt in it. So they brought it to him. 21 Then he went to the spring of water and threw salt in it and said, Thus says the Lord, I have healed this water; from now on neither death nor miscarriage shall come from it. 22 So the water has been healed to this day, according to the word that Elisha spoke.

12 Jerusalem at the Western Wall Tunnel The tunnel leads right past the Western Wall for the most part. It has arisen because Jerusalem was completely destroyed by the Romans. Later, the city was rebuilt on the ruins and remaining vaults. Here is a special place: Here is one of the former Blessed Sacrament next. Therefore, the prayers are closest to God here. Many prayers are written on slips of paper and placed at the Western Wall in scoring. This is free not only Jews but anyone who feels the need to do so. Some stones are so large that one has no clear idea of how they could be brought here. Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 12

13 The tunnel and vaults system is still consuming investigated and exposed Bethlehem - Shepards Field - The House of Bread Jesus was born in Bethlehem, which is clearly recorded in the Bible. But where?? Was it really to the indicated church of the Nativity in Bethlehem? Just outside Bethlehem there is the "Shepards Field". There once lived in caves. Recent studies suggest in this area, the birthplace of Jesus. Pastor Fadi Zoughbi of the Arab Christian community "House of Bread" managed access and the group was here for: Look, prayer and worship.

14 A blessed community, different communities, but unity in the Lord. Where we are one, we are on the right track, because we follow Jesus' prayer for unity of those who belong to him Mount of Olives - Fathers House The Father's house a house of prayer on the Mount of Olives. Over the last seven years we have had many prayer groups from different parts of Germany and many nations guest. The Lord's house is very suitable for prayer or worship groups of 6-10 people who engage in the father's house vision. (text) Please pray that the Lord is calling you for a while on the Mount of Olives to stand or be there. The Lord might bring a team to the Father's house. We wish you from Berlin and from Jerusalem God's blessing! Andreas and mis Bauer with all employees of the father's house The view from the Father-house on Jerusalem is wonderful-beautiful. It has also been directly aware of what should be a heart engage of all Christians. By the way, near the Mount of Olives, there is a Chinese and a Korean house of prayer Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 14

15 Erlöserkirche Jerusalem The Evangelical Church of German Language in Jerusalem welcomes all who live for short or long time in the Holy Land and participate in church life of a German-speaking congregation want. Church of the Redeemer: Our region includes visitors, pilgrims, tourists, volunteers, diplomats, teachers and students, and also people who have settled all over the Holy Land and are married to some extent with Arab or Jewish spouses. We also maintain close contact with sisters and brothers of the different communities and to the different German political and cultural institutions in the country. (text ) Bethesda - Church of St. Anna September 8 is known in Catholic tradition as the birthday of the Blessed Virgin Mary. While the canonical Gospels are silent about her origins, we know about her parents Joachim and Anna, her birth and childhood from the Gospel of James the second century. The early Christian tradition places the home of Joachim and Anne next to a double-pond represents a popular healing center - the pool of Bethesda, known in the Gospel of John: "Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, called in Hebrew Bethesda, having five porches. In these lay many sick, blind, lame, withered, waiting, when the water was moving." (John 5: 2-3) There, Jesus healed a paralytic. The dual meaning of the site as the birthplace of Mary and the place fully attached to the miracle, made sure that he became an important Christian shrine soon. The Byzantines built a large basilica, St. Mary, above the ponds. Damaged by the Persian invasions in the year 614, it was rebuilt and then destroyed by the Arabs to the 1010th. The Crusaders built a small monastery on the ruins, and in 1030, they built the present basilica, a large Romanesque church, St. Anne is devoted above the caves where the memory of the birth of the Virgin was preserved.

16 -3- place which symbolizes the return of the Messiah. The Golden Gate In Hebrew Yerushallayim Zel Zahav - Jerusalem of Gold Gate of return - Messiah comes - Door of Hope - In the Bible this is called the East Gate. These Ezekiel 44.1 to 4. The Prince of Peace sits in recent days in this gate, which is still closed. This closed door has two sheets: "The door of grace" and the "door of repentance." Symbolically it means: You can only come to him if you have repented, and He will give you grace. You can go in and out. This gate symbolizes the return of the Messiah who is sitting in the gate, to judge on the earth and to rule as Lion of Judah. This gate will light golden in the sun. In 1530, AD. Jordanians joined the Golden Gate out of fear. They wanted to prevent the coming of the Messiah. In front of the gate is the valley of Yehoshafat (= righteous judgment) or the valley of Kidron (Moloch victim). The Golden Gate is located opposite the Mount of Olives, Jesus was crucified on and will come back again. (Elisabeth Syré MY TRIP TO ISRAEL 2018) Relevation and its gates will never be shut by day and there will be no night there. 26 Und man wird die Herrlichkeit und die Ehre der Nationen zu ihr bringen. 27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, But only those who are written in the Lamb s book of life.. Golden Gate is still closed but anyone can come through the other gates into the city and they leave. For yet it is not visible that his name lives there and it has become a sacred place. The text of Revelation is hope for the heavenly Jerusalem, which is holy because he has taken residence there. The gates are now open and stay open day and night and yet does not come into it at any!! All the congregation did not enter, though by a service of the guards is not more talk. Who has not exchanged through the new birth, the congregation against white garments, will not be able to endure the holiness and stay out. We hope for this holy Jerusalem in which he resides!! Really? Or do we wait for it just until it comes? If the hope of the heavenly Jerusalem is alive in us: Then we must God hold out his promises daily: But I have chosen Jerusalem that my name might be there, these and other similar promises. then we must fight with spiritual weapons against the fact that so much unclean has space there. And unclean is all that is not used to his honor and glory!! Everyone should be tested, whether he wears the armor and even if he uses against all the unclean in the city of our great King in - Jerusalem -. Israelreise 2018 mit Elisabeth Sysré 16
