I Met Elijah Today on the Dusty Roads of Haifa

A prophetic encounter on Israel’s coast, a call to rebuild the altar, restore true worship, and prepare the way for the Lord. Are we ready for Sukkot? I hope this message blesses and prepares your heart.

“Through the gate no calamity will come.

Through the dwelling, no calamity will come.

Through this door no division will come; through this place no strife will come.

In this place, there will be peace and prosperity.”

These words mirror the heart of Scripture:

Psalm 91:10 — “No harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.”

Psalm 24:7 — “Lift up your heads, you gates… that the King of glory may come in.”

Isaiah 32:18 — “My people will live in peaceful dwelling places.”

Psalm 133:1 — “How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity.”

This message is more than poetry, it is a prophetic call to restore true worship and stand firm in covenant faithfulness, just as Elijah did on Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18). Elijah’s mission was to call a compromised nation back to Yehovah, rebuild the torn-down altar, and reveal that “The LORD, He is God!”

What We Receive from Elijah’s Example

Restoration of True Worship – Return to covenant faithfulness and holiness (1 Kings 18:21, 36–39).

Power and Prayer in the Spirit – Bold faith that changes nations (James 5:16–18).

Spirit of Reconciliation and Preparation – Turning hearts and preparing the way for Yeshua’s return (Malachi 4:5–6; Luke 1:16–17).

Elijah’s spirit is still at work — calling the end-time Body of Messiah to repentance, restoration, and readiness.

Like the Atlit detention camp near Haifa, once a place of exile and captivity, many today feel trapped and longing for release. But Yehovah is breaking the chains, opening the gates, and calling His people home.

This is a call to rise up — to restore the altar of Yehovah in our hearts and to prepare the way for the coming King.

“You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.” — Deuteronomy 28:6

The Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) is the holiest day in the biblical

calendar, a time of fasting, repentance, and seeking God’s mercy. In this

teaching, Dr. Kenny Russell reveals how every detail of Yom Kippur points to

Yeshua the Messiah as our Great High Priest and perfect sacrifice.

Discover:

·

The High Priest’s role in

Leviticus and how Yeshua fulfills it once for all (Hebrews 9).

·

The prophetic meaning of

the two goats, one sacrificed, one carrying sins away, and how Messiah embodies

both (John 1:29, Isaiah 53).

·

Why Yeshua’s blood doesn’t

just cover sin but removes it, giving us direct access to the Father (Hebrews

10:10, Hebrews 4:16).

·

How believers today can

approach Yom Kippur with humility, repentance, and joy, knowing our redemption

is complete in Him.

You’ll also learn how to intercede for the lost

sheep of the house of Israel:

·

Standing in the gap in

prayer (Ezekiel 22:30).

·

Asking for eyes to be

opened and the veil lifted (2 Corinthians 3:14-16).

·

Declaring God’s covenant

promises (Jeremiah 31, Ezekiel 36, Romans 11).

·

Praying for repentance,

protection from deception, and bold laborers for the harvest (Hosea 14, 2

Thessalonians 2, Matthew 9:37-38).

Romans 11 reminds us: “You do not support the root, but the root supports you.” The

root of the olive tree is God’s covenant with the patriarchs, fulfilled in

Yeshua, the life-giving source for Judea and Israel, and all who are grafted

into the commonwealth of Israel.

Be encouraged: On Yom Kippur, we don’t fear judgment - we rejoice in forgiveness through

the finished work of Messiah!

Part 35 – Love, Labor, and Loyalty: Finishing Well 1 Corinthians 16:5–24

As we close our journey through 1 Corinthians, today’s message centers on Paul’s heartfelt final instructions and the personal tone of his apostolic leadership. We explore themes of relational ministry, kingdom partnerships, and faith-filled perseverance. Paul models flexibility in planning, deep love for the body, and unwavering loyalty to Yeshua.

Highlights include:

Paul’s travel plans shaped by the Spirit and the biblical calendar (vv. 5–9)

Honoring fellow workers like Timothy and Apollos (vv. 10–12)

A powerful exhortation to stand firm, be strong, and do everything in love (vv. 13–14)

Recognition of faithful service (vv. 15–18)

Emphasis on unity across regions (vv. 19–21)

Sobering final words: “Maranatha!” and “Let love for Yeshua be sincere” (vv. 22–24)

Key Takeaways:

True leadership flows from love and humility.

Partnership in the Gospel requires mutual honor and trust.

God’s Kingdom is built through faith, not fame.

A disciple’s life is marked by watchfulness, courage, love, and a longing for Messiah’s return.

Let your love be real.

Let your faith be strong.

Let your labor be fruitful.

Let your hope be in His coming.

“The grace of the Lord Yeshua be with you. My love to all of you in Messiah Yeshua.

Amen.”
