A Prophetic Message from God for You

Dear Friend,

When I was in Israel not long ago, I went on a 14-day fast to pray. I went to the Temple Mount early one morning and was at the place where Satan tempted Jesus to cast Himself down to draw attention. That ancient and sacred place is the very center — ground zero — of spiritual warfare in our world today.

The battle of the end times will be waged from Mt. Zion. The ancient prophet Isaiah revealed the devil’s plan.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High (Isaiah 14:12-14).   

It was 44 years ago when I met Prime Minister Menachem Begin for the first time. When we met, he asked me why I had come, and I told him, “I don’t know, but I know God sent me.” 

You know the story of our second meeting as well, when I told him that God wanted me to build a bridge of love between Bible-believing Christians in America and the Jewish people. He said, “Let’s build it together.”

It was at our second meeting on July 5 that I told him, “I met the Prime Minister yesterday.” He said, “No, you did not. We met on June 30.” I said, “It’s not you. It’s Benjamin Netanyahu, and he will be prime minister one day.” 

I asked Mr. Begin to give him a job in the government and he did, starting Bibi’s political career.

My dear friend of more than 40 years, Prime Minister Netanyahu will be coming to Washington, D.C., this month to address a joint session of Congress. I will be meeting with him, and I want to let him know that you are standing with him. Please sign the declaration of support on the enclosed reply form and rush it back to me in the envelope provided.

I had a partner with me at my meeting with Prime Minister Begin, and I asked him to pray while we met. He sat on the side of the room, praying and weeping.

The first time that happened, Mr. Begin looked at me and asked, “What is he doing?” I said, “He’s praying for you right now.” The prime minister was astonished, and he said, “I’ve never had anybody do this before. Bring him with you every time you come so he can pray.” So for years, each time I met the prime minister, my friend was there with us, praying.

I’m telling you that story today because most of the people of Israel go to the Kotel if they have a prayer need. They write it on a piece of paper and take it to the Kotel — the Western Wall — and put it in one of the cracks between the ancient stones.

We’re going to change that. That’s why I’m so excited to tell you about the new Jerusalem World Prayer Center we are about to launch.

This prayer center will be a light of hope for the suffering people of Israel. Every day they see new evidence of how much they are hated. Every week they see former friends turning against them. 

They know they are hated…the Jerusalem World Prayer Center will give us a powerful new way to tell them…and show them…that they are loved.

In addition to offering prayer for their urgent needs, we will also have staff available to connect them to resources and help to meet their physical needs. This is going to be such a bright light of Christian love to Jewish people across the nation.

The Jerusalem World Prayer Center will be the 9-1-1 HOPE line for the nation of Israel. 

Any one at any time will be able to call, and we will not only pray for and with them but also do everything possible to comfort them and help meet their needs or connect them with someone who can.

The Jerusalem World Prayer Center will be the hope line for the nation of Israel. 

But there is so much more. As you know, there is a spiritual battle raging. We see the other wars covered on the news day after day. 

In addition to the physical war being fought with guns and planes and tanks, there is an economic war, an ideological war and a media war. Those are wars Israel is equipped to fight.

They can’t fight the spirit war. 

The Bible says, “Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand” (Ephesians 6:10-13).

It is no coincidence that the deadly and demonic Hamas attack on October 7 was code named the Al-Aqsa Flood. The Holy City and specifically the Temple Mount are the target of the Enemy. Al-Aqsa is the Islamic mosque on the Temple Mount

The Jerusalem World Prayer Center will allow Believers around the world to join together in powerful new ways to fight the spirit war for Israel’s future. 

Together we will join forces against the principalities and powers behind the government of Iran and their terrorist proxies like Hamas, Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the Mahdi Army, and the Houthis.

Together we will bind those forces through prayer, unleashing God’s arm to move in powerful ways to help defend Israel. Just as Daniel fought the spirit war against the prince of Persia until the angel came with the answer to his prayer, we will stand in the gap for Israel.

The Jerusalem World Prayer Center will be the weapon for spiritual warfare for the nation of Israel.

And there is still more. We are going to fulfill the Bible prophecy that the prayers of the world will come to Jerusalem, and that the word of God will go out from the Holy City around the world. Many nations shall come and say, “For out of Zion the law shall go forth, And the word of the LORD from Jerusalem” (Micah 4:2). 

Yes, we will stream the Word of God from Jerusalem to all the nations of the earth.

With prayers being offered around the clock and a constant stream of praise and worship, we are going to build a facility where the glory of God is proclaimed…and shown to the nations.

We are going to offer people around the world the opportunity to join hands in fervent intercession for the peace of Jerusalem and the protection of Israel.

In addition, the facility will be host to replicas of some of the holiest things in the Bible, like the Ark of the Covenant. These will be available around the world, harnessing the power of the Internet. And they will be an encouragement and blessing to all who see them.

The Jerusalem World Prayer Center will be God’s prophetic voice to the nations of the world.

Finally, the Jerusalem World Prayer Center will be a place where you can share your own prayer needs, even as you pray for the needs of others. Even as we join hands together to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, we also have the opportunity to pray for and with each other. We will have the ability for you to share prayer needs and burdens and hear from those who are standing with you in prayer.

I know how much it means to me to meet with friends and partners like you and hear, “I’m praying for you, Mike.” It is such a blessing and encouragement, reminding me that I am not alone, and that prayer has power.

Our software will let intercessors see those in need, and join with them in prayer. There is nothing more powerful than two or three gathered together in the name of the Lord, and seeing His presence come down. God still answers prayer!

The Jerusalem World Prayer Center will be the place where your needs are prayed for by Believers.

God has given us an incredible campus in the Holy City. When we signed the contract for the first building, which is now the wonderful Friends of Zion Museum more than 12 years ago, I had no idea how God would work to bring things together. The purchase price seemed impossible, but month after month, God touched the hearts of friends, and every payment was made on time.

That was just the beginning. 

Today your Friends of Zion Center is home not just to the museum, but to a media center which is often used by various Israeli government agencies for global conferences. 

In addition, we have apartments, which right now are being used to house refugees forced to flee their homes by the war in Israel. Holocaust survivors are on our campus weekly at no charge.

And the list goes on and on. Each time we have needed to expand the campus, our partners have made it possible. For the Jerusalem World Prayer Center, we don’t need to buy a new building. We’re going to build up, adding to one of the existing buildings on the campus.

This will be much cheaper than purchasing an entire building and will give us the space for servers, staff, programs, praise and worship teams, and so much more. We’ll also have to make a substantial investment in computers and technology to bring this program to life.

When the Jerusalem World Prayer Center opens, it will be a state-of-the-art facility that will greatly expand our outreaches to the Jewish people, and it will be a powerful weapon in the spirit war that is raging.

We can’t do this without your help. Building the addition and starting on the programming and technology for the prayer center will be a major undertaking. We must begin raising this money immediately so that the work can get started. And we can’t do it without your help.

We cannot stop reaching out in love to meet the urgent needs of the Jewish people in Israel who are suffering because of the war. We cannot stop ministering to the suffering people of Ukraine whose lives have been devastated. We cannot stop feeding poor Holocaust survivors, housing refugees, providing help to young IDF soldiers, and so much more.

But we must also launch the Jerusalem World Prayer Center. This is God’s prophetic mandate, and it is a task that simply won’t wait.

Today I’m asking you to stop while this letter is in your hand and ask God what He wants you to give. I am confident that if every friend and partner will do that, the need will be met, and we will be able to move forward.

I prayed over this message because this is such a prophetic project for Friends of Zion…and it may be the most important we ever launch. 

What you do will echo throughout eternity.

Please don’t set this matter aside for later. We must act as quickly as possible, and that means I need to hear from you right away. Thank you in advance for your generous response. God bless you for blessing His Chosen People.

P.S. The Jerusalem World Prayer Center is a crucial part of God’s plan to defend Israel, and we must bring it to life as quickly as possible. Please be as generous as you can when you rush your Holy Spirit-led gift. I know this new outreach will be a great blessing to you personally as well, as we join hands together in an even more powerful way through the prayer opportunities this will make available.

P.P.S. Thank you so much for being my dear friend and partner. I am praying the Aaronic blessing over your life today. The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord make His face to shine on you and be gracious to you. The Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace.
