AN IMPORTANT WORD

From Amir Tsarfai

July 2, 2026

Even when things look bad – and trust me, they are – our Lord is still on the throne, and His will shall be accomplished. The best way to navigate life in these days is to remember a few simple truths.

Evil triumphs only temporarily. The wicked may flourish for a season, but their end is certain, while the righteous will flourish in the Lord (Psalm 92:7–15 NKJV). We must never grow weary in doing good. As Paul wrote, “And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart” (Galatians 6:9).

I won’t pretend these past three years have been easy. There were many moments when I felt as though I was barely keeping my head above water. What sustained me was the Lord, my family, and the incredible team with whom I have the privilege of serving. Remaining in God’s Word – and teaching it from Israel and around the world – has been one of the greatest sources of strength in my life. The promise of Scripture became my daily reality: “For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy 1:7).

Fear was never my struggle. Sadness was.

Sadness as I watched millions of people blinded, deceived, and manipulated by the prince of this world. Sadness as I saw many who claim to know God’s Word twist it, rip it from its context, and lead countless people into deception and doctrines of demons (1 Timothy 4:1).

Never forget this: Israel remains one of the clearest spiritual litmus tests for both the Church and the nations. How people respond to God’s covenant people often reveals far more than their political opinions—it exposes their spiritual condition.

Jesus warned that His return would come when the world was spiritually indifferent and unprepared. Therefore, He commanded us to watch, be ready, and live expectantly. “Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect” (Matthew 24:44). That is why I count it such a privilege and blessing to soon board a cruise ship with more than 700 believers who have gathered for one purpose: to worship the Lord, enjoy fellowship with one another, and diligently study His Word together.

Thank you for allowing my team and me to be part of your journey through these extraordinary days in which we live.

On a personal note, I also want to thank everyone who responded to my request at the end of last month by committing to pray for our ministry and by supporting it financially. Your partnership enables us to continue proclaiming God’s Word around the world without compromise, and I am deeply grateful.

As James reminded us:

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning” (James 1:17).

Awaiting His Return,
