The Fellowship has helped Jews from all over the world- Russia, Ethiopia, Argentina, India, Muslim countries and elsewhere-
escape anti-Semitism and extreme poverty, to realize the dream of living
in their biblical homeland. When they arrive in Israel, On Wings of Eagles provides them with klitah (resettlement) assistance
to help them become full, productive citizens.

Praise God
Hallelujah. Praise God in His sanctuary; praise Him in the firmament of His power.
Praise Him for His
mighty acts; praise Him according to His abundant greatness.
Praise Him with the blast of the horn; praise Him with
the psaltery and harp.
Praise Him with the timbrel and dance; praise Him with stringed instruments and the pipe.
Praise
Him with the loud-sounding cymbals; praise Him with the clanging cymbals.
Let every thing that hath breath praise The
LORD. Hallelujah.
A voice is calling,
"Clear the way for the LORD in the wilderness;
Make smooth in the desert a highway for our
God.
Let every valley be lifted up,
And every mountain and hill be made low;
And let the rough ground become a plain,
And
the rugged terrain a broad valley;
Then the glory of the LORD will be revealed,
And all flesh will see it together;
For
the mouth of the LORD has spoken."
Isaiah 40:3-4 NASB

I have a task
The task of testifying to the Gospel of God's Grace Acts 20:24
Who is Jesus Christ of Nazareth?
This is the One who has been appointed by God as Judge of the living and the dead. Of Him all the prophets bear witness
that through His name everyone who believes in Him receives forgiveness of sins.''
Acts 10:42,43 NASB
Jesus said to pray these words.
Our Father which art in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
Thy will be done in earth,
as
it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts,
as we forgive our debtors.
And
lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil:
For thine is the kingdom,
and the power, and the glory, for
ever.
Amen.
Matthew 6:9b-13 KJV
Be Grateful for His Gifts of Patience & Endurance
At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, and many false prophets
will appear and deceive many people. Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, but he who stands
firm to the end will be saved. Matthew 24:10-13 NIV
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men, since you know that you will receive
an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.
Colossians 3:23,24 NIV
FEAR NOTt
He will cover you with his feathers,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness
will be your shield and rampart.
You will not fear the terror of night,
nor the arrow that flies by day,
nor
the pestilence that stalks in the darkness,
nor the plague that destroys at midday.
Psalm 91:4-6 NIV
Prayer for Those Addicted to Drugs
Most loving God,
we ask your blessing upon all
who suffer from addiction.
Strengthen them to reach
out for help.
Enable them to take the first step to recovery.
Bless them with the persistence to persevere
in the
fight to be free.
Give courage and hope to their families,
drawing them close together
in the power of your love,
which
alone can transform our living.
Amen.
Prayer for your animals
Prayer for Animals
Hear our humble prayer, O God, for our friends the animals,
especially for animals who are suffering;
for
animals that are overworked, underfed and cruelly treated;
for all wistful creatures in captivity that beat their wings
against bars;
for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry;
for all that must be put death.
We
entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity,
and for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion
and gentle hands
and kindly words.
Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals,
and so to share the blessings of the merciful.
- Albert Schweitzer

Prayer for Marriage
Most gracious God, we give you thanks for your tender love in sending Jesus Christ to come among us, to be
born of a human mother, and to make the way of the cross to be the way of life.
We thank you, also, for consecrating
the union of man and woman in his Name.
By the power of your Holy Spirit, pour out the abundance of your blessing upon
this man and this woman.
Defend them from every enemy.
Lead them into all peace.
Let their love for each other be
a seal upon their hearts, a mantle about their shoulders, and a crown upon their foreheads.
Bless them in their work and
in their companionship; in their sleeping and in their waking; in their joys and in their sorrows; in their life and in their
death.
Finally, in your mercy, bring them to that table where your saints feast for ever in your heavenly home; through
Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Prayer for Help With Finances
Dear God,
I surrender my financial affairs and concerns about money to your Divine care and love.
I
ask that you remove my worries, anxieties, and fears about money, and replace them with faith.
I know and trust that
my debts will be paid and money will flow into my life.
I have only to look to nature to see proof of the abundance
you provide.
I release all negative thoughts about money, and know that prosperity is my true state.
I commit
to being grateful for all that I now have in my life.
I learn to manage my finances wisely, seeking help where needed.
And
finally, I ask you to help me understand my purpose in life and to act on that purpose with courage and strength. I know that
prosperity will come, in part, by doing work I love. Please help me use my skills and knowledge to be of service in the world.
Thank
you, God.
Amen
The Ministry
A Healing Stillness
Why did Messiah come?
For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.
Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.
1
John 3:8b,9 KJV
__________________
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into
the world that we might live through him. This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an
atoning sacrifice for our sins.
1 John 4:9,10 NIV
Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom
of God. Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb,
and be born?
Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot
enter into the kingdom of God.That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Marvel
not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
John 3:3-7 KJV
Every one who believes that Jesus is the Christ is a child of God, and every one who loves the parent loves the child.
By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and obey his commandments. For this is the love of God,
that we keep his commandments. And his commandments are not burdensome. For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and
this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world but he who believes that Jesus
is the Son of God? This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus Christ, not with the water only but with the water
and the blood. And the Spirit is the witness, because the Spirit is the truth. There are three witnesses, the Spirit, the
water, and the blood; and these three agree. If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for this
is the testimony of God that he has borne witness to his Son. He who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself.
He who does not believe God has made him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has borne to his Son.
And this is the testimony, that God gave us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He who has the Son has life; he who
has not the Son of God has not life. Note: Today's Gospel reading is Luke 4:38-44. Find a Bible translation
"He that hath the Son hath life [a right or privilege or grant of life as God's gift]; but he that hath not the Son shall
not see [perfect] life." John 3:36; 1 John 5:12
None can obtain everlasting life except from Christ the Redeemer and
appointed Life-giver; and the truth which brings to us the privilege of manifesting faith and obedience, and thus "laying
hold on eternal life," is called the "water of life" and the "bread of life." John 4:14; 6:40,54
This everlasting life
will be granted only to those who, when they learn of it and the terms upon which it will be granted as a gift, seek for it,
by living according to the spirit of holiness. They shall reap it as a gift-reward. Rom. 6:23; Gal. 6:8
To gain this
everlasting life we must become the Lord's "sheep" and follow the voice, the instructions, of the Shepherd. John 10:26-28;
17:2,3
The gift of everlasting life will not be forced upon any. On the contrary, it must be desired and sought and
laid hold upon by all who would gain it. 1 Tim. 6:12,19

Joy - from the Lord!
Although the fig tree shall not blossom,
neither shall fruit be in the vines;
the labour
of the olive shall fail,
and the fields shall yield no meat;
the flock shall be cut off from the fold,
and there
shall be no herd in the stalls:
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD,
I will joy in the God of my salvation.
The LORD
God is my strength,
and he will make my feet like hinds' feet,
and he will make me to walk upon mine high places.
Habakkuk
3:17-19 KJV
HIS WAY INVESTMENT
We are a group of Christians who have partnered together for the purpose of helping Gods people to prosper Gods way.
We use our partnership money to feed the hungry, cloth the naked, get medicine for the sick, world wide. Partnership is only
$10 We also have an investment program
It is not until we find, in the New Testament, the clear, positive statements of our Lord, and afterwards the equally
clear statements of the apostles on this momentous subject of Everlasting Life that we begin to exchange vague hopes for positive
convictions. In their words we not only have positive statements to the effect that the possibilities of a future life have
been provided for all, but the philosophy of the fact and how it is to be attained and maintained are set forth there as nowhere
else.
Many have not noticed these points, and hence are "weak in faith." Let us see what this philosophy is, and be more
assured than ever that future life, everlasting life, is by our great wise Creator's provision made a possibility for every
member of the human family.
We live in a day of great turbulence. The news is filled every day with disturbing events from the Middle East. As our
attention is pulled to the other side of the globe, we find our own cities and neighborhoods dealing with crisises we could
never have imagined 20, 30, or 40 years ago. Certainly, we live in perilous times.
No amount of effort can stop the clock of history. No mortal, no matter how influential, wealthy, or well-known can break
the tyranny of time. Every day that passes, every flash of a digital crystal, brings us closer to the dramatic events predicted
in the Bible. We can prepare for the inevitable. We can put time to good use. But we cannot stop it. Not for a moment.
Christ: Key to the future
Christ is the center of God's plan for the endtimes.
1. He returns in the air
2. Rise of the Antichrist, Christ will be challenged.
3. Unparalleled trouble. Christ troubles the nations & Israel
4. Christ comes to rescue and judge Israel and the nation
5. 1,000-Year Reign of Christ
6. Final Judgement
7. New World
suddenly, the scene will change. The heavens will open and Jesus will return. He is portrayed as clothed in a robe dipped
in blood and riding on a white horse as He appears in the air to send His white-clothed army against the army of antichrist
(Rev.19:11 - 21). Victory will be swift and complete as the beast is captured and banished to the lake of fire, and his army
is soundly defeated.
This, then, is the second coming of Jesus Christ. The King of the universe, who had appeared in the air just a few years
before, will have come back to end the tribulation and to establish His millennial kingdom on earth. Thank you
"There will be food shortages."  Following World War 1 came perhaps the greatest famine in all history. Terrible famine also followed World War 11. A
scourge of malnutrition afffects up to one fifth of earth's population, killing some 14 million children every
year. Truly, there have been "food Shortages"1
Consider some of the things that Jesus foretold would mark "The Last Days."
"Nation will rise against nation and kingdom agaist kingdom."
There has been an increasing of lawlessness.
Our World since 1914 has become known as one of crime and violence. In many places no one feels safe on the streets
even during the daytime. At night people stay in their homes with their doors locked and barricaded, afraid to go outside.
"In one place after another pestilences." (Luke 21:11) Right after World War 1, some 21 million people died of the Spanish
flu. Science Digest reported;? "IN all history there had been no sterner, swifter visitaion of death." Since then, heart disease,
cancer, AIDS, and many other plagues have killed hundred of millions.
He that does the will of God remains forever-1John 2:17
So we need to learn God's will and do it. Then we can survive this world's end to enjoy eternally the blessings of God's
new world. The Bible promises that at time; God...will wipe out every fear from {People'} eyes, and death will be no
more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.--Rev 21-3,4
Stayed tuned for more endtime news.
Last Days?
And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days ofthe Son
of Man: They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and
the flood came and destroyed them all.
Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought,
they sold, they planted, they built; but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and
destroyed them all. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Manis revealed.
"In that day, he who is on the house
top, and his goods are in the house, let him not come down to take them away. And likewise the one who is in the field, let
him not turn back. Remember Lot's wife.Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve
it.
Luke 17:26-33 NKJV
King of Kings!
Jesus Christ... God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone
is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To Him be honor and might forever. Amen.
