I’m Israeli! I was born in Israel, and even though I’ve lived outside of Israel for parts of my life, it’s still the nationality I go by and a nation I feel so blessed to belong to (you can read much more about me here).
Besides being Israeli, I am also Jewish. If you would like to know the difference between an Israeli and a Jew, it’s very simple.
A Jew is a descendent of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. In order to be a citizen of modern day Israel, one must be Jewish (it’s the Jewish homeland). So everyone who has an Israeli passport is both Jewish and Israeli (unless you’re Arab, in which case one is an Israeli Arab – but they’re the minority in Israel).
But, not all Jews live in Israel. Many Jews live elsewhere around the globe. They are Jewish, but they’re not Israeli unless they’ve lived in Israel and have an Israeli passport.
So, now that we’ve clarified that, let’s move on…
We Israelis are adventurous people and we love to travel! In fact, after our compulsory military service, the first thing the vast majority of us do is book a ticket to as far a destination as we can afford to go.
Another trait that Israelis have is that we are often hungry to know more about God. Having been raised in a religion that has the Old Testament of the Bible at its core, we have an innate awareness that God exists. While the religious Jews try tirelessly to appease the Creator by following hundreds of man-made laws, the secular Jews in Israel and beyond, for the most part, don’t quite know how to reach Him. And both missed the coming of the Jewish Messiah, Yeshua (Jesus), over 2,000 years ago.
This means there are less than 2% who are believers in the Gospel. When I was saved in Israel in the early 1990’s there were a total of 150 believers in the entire population of five million people in Israel! There are now about ten thousand, which is an astronomical growth, but still a tiny minority.
Ironically, even though the Saviour, Yeshua, dwelt in our very midst, was foretold in our Scriptures, and was Himself Jewish, Israelis have not heard a clear presentation of who He is, nor of the Gospel and what it could mean to them. My people understand Jesus to be a Catholic religious figure who started Christianity, rather than the Jewish Messiah (Saviour) sent to the Jews. The Good News needs to be shared with these precious people, clearly presented, and revealed to them by God’s Holy Spirit.
This is where you come in 🙂
If you have a love for Israel, for the Jews, for sharing the Gospel of Jesus, or all of the above, there’s a fantastic opportunity that you can be a part of!
Presenting YESH! which in Hebrew means Yay!
Yesh! is a travel app that’s meant for hosting Israeli travellers all around the world.
The Yesh! App offers you an easy way to place your name out there for Israeli travellers to find when they’re heading to your area. It’s kind of like AirBnB but for those who want to host Israeli travellers.
In the event that you choose to host Israelis, but don’t feel confident to use an app, or prefer not to, Yesh! has you covered! They can manage your hosting account. This is a great bonus service that they offer for those who are not comfortable with using the app. They can upload your information for you, answer all your travellers’ calls for you, and they will personally contact you if someone wants to stay at your place.
With the current pandemic the whole world is facing, sadly there will most likely not be any travellers in the foreseeable future. But the travellers will return and when they do, be ready to open your home and heart to share God’s love and Word with them.
And just in case you were expecting this to be a big sales pitch, the Yesh! App is 100% free to use! So you have nothing to lose, only rewards in Heaven to gain 🙂
There really is no better way of blessing the Jewish people than hosting them in your home, allowing them to see how you ‘do life’ as a follower of their Jewish Messiah, and declaring the truth of believing in Yeshua with them!
