HEART OF THE MESSIAH - WHY WE STAND WITH ISREAL PT 2 - COUNTING THE OMER PT 1

Saturday, March 28, 2026

In this powerful episode, Rabbi Steve Weiler opens with anointed worship declaring: "The fire of Your coming, the glory of Your presence will shake the earth... You are Messiah, Yeshua HaMashiach, Lion of Judah, the God of Israel."

Join Rabbi Weiler as he continues his vital series on the truth about Israel, addressing common objections head-on: Is Israel committing genocide in Gaza? Is it an apartheid or colonizing state? Why the ongoing presence in certain territories? With clarity and compassion, he contrasts Israel's efforts to minimize civilian casualties and desire for peace with Hamas's charter calling for the eradication of Jews "from the river to the sea."

Drawing from Scripture (Genesis 13, 15, 17; Psalm 83 & 129; Isaiah 27 & 35; Zephaniah 3), archaeology, international law, and Jewish tradition—like the Passover Seder's respect for life—Rabbi Weiler shows God's everlasting covenant with the land and people of Israel. He also explores why some Jews oppose Zionism and reminds us that Israel's flourishing desert blooms testify to God's faithfulness.
