Dear Elijah List Readers,
Curt Landry and I are coming PERSONALLY to all of you! I really want to endorse this SPECIAL PROJECT TO BLESS ISRAEL!
For HIS KINGDOM,
Steve Shultz, Founder,
THE ELIJAH LIST
The day was May 14, 1948 (Iyar 5) when David Ben-Gurion, who would become Israel's first Prime Minister, proudly announced:
"We hereby proclaim the establishment of the Jewish state in Palestine, to be called Israel!"

The Jewish state was born in a single day, just as the prophet Isaiah had foretold (see Is. 66:8), but it is reported that in that moment there was great applause, rejoicing, dancing and tears, and yet in the distance you could already hear the sound of war as the conflict between Arabs and Jews continued. In fact, on the following day, May 15, the nations surrounding Israel declared war on the newly birthed nation-state, and what became known as the Arab-Israeli War, lasted for over a year—well into 1949.
Six thousand, three hundred and seventy-three Israelis gave their lives for Israel's freedom during that time, and since then nearly 17 thousand more Israeli citizens and soldiers have lost their lives in conflicts, wars and terrorist attacks.
The war to exist in God's Promised Land is still raging, and yet 5778/2018 marks the beginning of Israel's 70th anniversary as a modern-day nation-state.

In Hebrew and in Biblical numerology, the number 70 is very significant:
• Ancient Israel spent 70 years in
Babylonian captivity.
• The number 7 symbolizes
protection.
• The number 10 symbolizes
completeness.
The number 70 can also represent a period or a season of judgment. If you are in a court case, and you are the right side of the law, the judgment or ruling should always be in your favor. As I have often said, "Judgment is a friend of the righteous and of those who desire right standing with God."
I believe that all of these important events coincide as signs from the Lord pointing to our spiritual release from our Babylonian captivity. It is time for us to be released and restored. It is time for righteous judgment to fall.
If there was ever a time to be released into God's perfect peace and safety, it would be during this year of promotion.
Just look at the natural disasters and weather patterns: flash floods, fires, hurricanes, tornados, earthquakes and more. The world is shaking and I believe it is time to make a fresh decree according to Matthew 7:24 that says, our houses are built upon the rock:
"Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock..."
We recently celebrated the City of Jerusalem's 50th Jubilee year, 5777/2017, and now as we have stepped into the Hebrew year of 5778, we celebrate Israel's 70th anniversary as a modern-day nation-state.

This year as My Olive Tree plants your sponsored olive trees deep into Israel's soil, we do so as a bold prophetic act in order to declare freedom from captivity.
Through this planting, I know that many of you will not only be planting seeds of hope into the land of Israel, but also as a prophetic act for healing of your marriages, your relationships, your finances, your faith and your bodies.
We are planting in 5778 as a prophetic act that the season of captivity is over, and that just like Israel, our homes are safe and established in the Lord. There will be no more casualties!
Can you see how the enemy has warred to gain a foothold in your homes just like he has in Israel?
As you join us in this prophetic act I want to send you a few tools from Israel as a gift to rededicate your abiding place with God's anointing. One of the reasons that we plant olive trees in the desert in Israel is because of the promises of Amos 9:15:
"I will plant them in their land, and no longer shall they be pulled up from the land I have given them,' says the Lord your God."
As you plant into the 70th anniversary planting we are standing with you... that you will not be uprooted. You will be established.
I do want to send you these gifts and stand in prayer with you who have stepped out in faith and sponsored a special 70th anniversary memorial tree.

With YOUR full sponsorship you will receive:
• Certificate of Authenticity
The My Olive Tree Certificate of Authenticity is a beautiful certificate that is suitable to frame and hang in any home or office. This certificate can be issued in your name or in the name of friend or loved one. What a great reminder of your love for the nation of Israel!
• The King's Oil: Holy Anointing Oil
Made according to the instructions of Exodus 30. I want to encourage you to anoint the corners of your property, your doors, and all your vehicles, as you decree the promises of protection we find in Psalm 91.
• The Red Reuven Tallit
Made in Israel, with the color red symbolizing the Blood the Lamb and the blessing of the firstborn inheritance.
• "Grafted In" Mezuzah
For those not familiar, a mezuzah is something in Judaism that you place on the doorframe of your home to fulfill the mitzvah (commandment) of Deuteronomy 6:9 that says, "You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates." The actual prayer inside the mezuzah is written in Hebrew and is Deuteronomy 6:4-9 and 11:13-21.
What a wonderful promise that our days, and the days of our children, may be multiplied!
We are planting to see the multiplication of God in Israel and in our lives.
David Ben-Gurion, the patriarch of the modern-day nation of Israel, loved the expanses of the Negev, and saw that it was crucial to Israel's future—dreaming in 1948 of making the desert bloom.
In 5778, 70 years later, we are planting for Israel, but we are also planting for our homes and our families as a prophetic act that the God who has kept Israel is our keeper as well.
We will sow into the land of Israel in her 70th year...
We will anoint our homes, our doorposts, and the four corners of our properties, as well as our vehicles.
And, we will stand together on the promises that God will be faithful "to bless those who bless you [Israel]!"
