What John Really Thought...
|
Today, we remember and celebrate our Independence from British rule.
But did you know this?
John Adams was a pretty big part in that of the founding of our country AND he was a live out-loud Christian!
He strongly believed that by taking us out of British rule we were being put firmly under God's rule.
We were now under the rule of the King of kings, Lord of lords; he believed that God reigned in Heaven and He wanted his Kingdom to extend to the New World, "from the rising to the setting of the sun."
John wrote, "The general principles on which the Fathers achieved independence were the general principles of Christianity."
The Declaration of Independence closing paragraph states:
"And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance of the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor."
27 of the 56 founding fathers were ministers!
Sometimes I think we might forget the spiritual implications of this...
Our country is founded firmly on Christian values and beliefs.
We all know God Loves Israel.
Our country has a strong tie with Israel among Believers.
God loves Israel. God has sustained Israel and His children for generations.
Blessing Israel on such an important day in the United States history is a boon!
You can help bless "the Apple of God's eye" and join thousands who have been a blessing to Israel and released a blessing in their own life in preparation for this Independence Day!
Bless You, Bless Our Country & Bless Israel by sponsoring a tree IN Israel This Independence Day.
This Independence Day, among celebrations, there is a special project quietly going on where every single county in every single state here in the United States is sponsoring a tree is Israel. Imagine how blessed the U.S. will be this special day?!

A message about My Olive Tree from Curt Landry:
My Olive Tree is a company that encourages the sponsorship of trees in Israel to help boost Israel's agricultural economy and provide jobs through continued harvests, etc. MOT works with agricultural businesses and farmers in Israel. The contract with the farmers states that My Olive Tree receives 10% of the profit of the oil that is harvested annually from the trees. MOT has agreed to donate this annual percentage into humanitarian aid work in Israel—the other 90% remains with the farmers. This is in an effort to bless Israel's industry and families.
Sponsorship: there are options to plant trees for less in Israel. Many times these trees are small "saplings" that are planted solely for the purpose of reforestation. They are generally planted without irrigation and do not receive further care. MOT plants for reforestation and for the purpose of receiving future harvests. The trees are at least 3 feet tall, irrigated and receive the care they need to become mature trees that produce annual harvests. They are purchased from nursery stocks that are "designed" to produce healthy harvests in specific types of soil. The sponsorship of the tree is not tax-deductible.
Shalom,
Curt Landry
P.S. The part in the video with the children....always touches my heart. |

What you need to know about the special project:
|
There are 3,011 counties in the United States, and our trees will be planted together in a grove that will be marked and identified as a gift from our nation to Israel. |
• |
There is a virtual visitors' center that allows sponsors to see satellite images of their grove. This information is accessed through the number on a certificate of authenticity that is issued for each tree sponsored. |
• |
The land that My Olive Tree uses for the tree sponsorships is under long term lease agreement. |
• |
My Olive Tree will take responsibility to replace a dead tree. |
• |
Each year, ten percent of the sales of the olive products from our trees will be given back into the nation of Israel, via various humanitarian aid projects that are overseen by Curt Landry's ministry. The remaining percentage of the sales will go back into Israel's agriculture. |
• |
My Olive Tree will provide a high quality wood carved sign that will identify our project. |
• |
Strategic spiritual ley lines will be established as we partner to plant these trees. |
• |
Trees have a positive effect on the economy, the environment, and the hearts of the people. They create jobs, they produce oxygen, they produce food, they increase rainfall...they make the desert blossom and rejoice. There is a saying in Judaism that says: "You plant a vineyard for your son and an olive tree for your grandson."
