The Jewish state was born in a single day, just as the prophet Isaiah had foretold, 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 70^th anniversary as a modern-day nation-state.

In Hebrew and in biblical numerology, the number 70 is a 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 is almost always 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 50^th Jubilee year, 5777/2017, and now as we have stepped into the Hebrew year of 5778, we celebrate Israel’s 70^th 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 this 70^th 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 I also want to invite you to join me on a special My Olive Tree, Facebook LIVE for a time where we will anoint our homes together. You will receive an invitation via email with the date and time!

I want to take the time to stand and pray with you who have stepped out in faith and sponsored a special 70^th anniversary memorial tree.

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength… You shall bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes. You shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.”—Deuteronomy 6:4-9

“And it shall be that if you earnestly obey My commandments which I command you today, to love the Lord your God and serve Him with all your heart and with all your soul, then I will give you the rain for your land in its season, the early rain and the latter rain, that you may gather in your grain, your new wine, and your oil.  And I will send grass in your fields for your livestock, that you may eat and be filled… Therefore you shall lay up these words of mine in your heart and in your soul, and bind them as a sign on your hand, and they shall be as frontlets between your eyes… And you shall write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates, that your days and the days of your children may be multiplied in the land of which the Lord swore to your fathers to give them, like the days of the heavens above the earth.” —Deuteronomy 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 70^th 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].”

Join us in this prophetic act in Israel’s 70^th year!

Shalom,

Curt and Christie Landry
Founders, My Olive Tree
