40 – Operation Ittai | Joshua Waller

As the people of Israel find themselves yet again at the center of global attention since the terrorist incursion of October 7, the nations are in an uproar. With pressure on Israel from all sides, those of us who stand with the Jewish people are wondering what we can do to help. Our guest today is Joshua Waller, whose organization, HaYovel, is providing real, tangible aid to Jewish people in Judea and Samaria. We’re also privileged to have Boaz Michael, founder and director of First Fruits of Zion, here with us today. – Episode Highlights – * What is HaYovel and what is the biblical and prophetic basis for its vision and mission? * The origin story and inspiration behind the Waller family moving to Israel and working alongside Israeli farmers. * Is HaYovel a missionary organization disguised as Christian supporters of Jewish people in Israel? * HaYovel and First Fruits of Zion share a camaraderie in working toward the fulfillment of a positive kingdom-building future outlined by the ancient prophets of Israel. * Pro-Israel Christians have an opportunity to become active, “boots-on-the-ground” Zionists through involvement with HaYovel. * Secular Zionists and religious Zionists work side by side. * In 2023, through HaYovel, the nations helped Judea and Samaria to plant 20,000 new vines and trees and harvested 150 tons of grapes. * HaYovel is currently the only international organization providing support and aid to the 500,000 Israeli residents of Judea and Samaria and is working tirelessly to increase global support. * What have Jewish/Arab relations been like in Samaria before Hamas invaded southern Israel, and what are relations like currently? * How are the Arabs of Judea and Samaria similar to or different from those in the Gaza Strip? * What and who are the Palestinians? Would a two-state solution solve the problems? * What is the political landscape of the Arab population in Gaza and Judea and Samaria? * Boaz and Joshua speculate on the political motivations behind supporters and enemies of Israel. * Are we moving toward the disastrous biblical prophecies of Armageddon or are the redemption and early fulfillment of the Bible’s positive prophecies possible? * Israel is facing a war on four fronts: Gaza in the west, Lebanon in the north, Yemen in the south, and Judea and Samaria in the heartland. * Answering the accusations of Israel’s genocidal aggression against Arabs. * This is a time to take action and stand up with and for the Jewish people wherever you are, speaking the truth in whatever form possible to combat the lies and hatred coming against God’s chosen people. * Operation Ittai is an initiative of HaYovel in cooperation with the governors in the Israeli communities in Judea and Samaria to airdrop needed supplies and equipment to the fourth front in the current war—the front in the heartland of the Holy Land. – Related Resource Links – Operation Ittai: https://operationittai.com HaYovel: https://hayovel.org The Israel Guys: https://youtube.com/@TheIsraelGuys Messiah Online: https://ffoz.org/messiah HaYesod https://ffoz.org/hayesod Additional Recommended Donation Links: OneFamily: https://onefamilytogether.org Friends of the IDF: https://www.fidf.org/ United Hatzalah: https://israelrescue.org/ Magen David Adom: https://www.mdais.org/en Messiah Podcast theme music provided with permission by Joshua Aaron Music (http://JoshuaAaron.tv). “Cover the Sea” Copyright WorshipinIsrael.com songs 2020.
