Quote John Hagee Ministries
The Lord declared in Isaiah 41:19-20, "I will plant in the wilderness the cedar and the acacia tree, the myrtle and the oil tree; I will set in the desert the cypress tree and the pine and the box tree together, that they may see and know, and consider and understand together, that the hand of the LORD has done this, and the Holy One of Israel has created it."
At the time that this prophecy was written, Israel had not yet become the parched and barren land it eventually became after the destruction of the Second Temple and the dispersion of the Jews who had been the faithful stewards of the land. However, the Lord knew what was coming and had already promised restoration. Only God can cause the desert to bloom. But we, the spiritual children of Abraham, can lend our support through a sustained program of tree planting in Israel.
John Hagee Ministries is participating in a project called "Plant Your Roots in Israel." This campaign has the central goal of planting one million trees in Israel to help revitalize the land!
Planting a tree is more than mere aesthetics. It is an opportunity to help:
Transform barren regions of the Negev desert into fruitful, productive land
Create jobs
Provide needed irrigation
Sustain the local economy
As you can see, planting trees is a great way to express your love and support for Israel and make a real difference in the Holy Land.
Each donation of $35 plants a tree in Israel and contributes to a unique water conservation project in the Negev desert. With each donation you will receive one 'Plant Your Roots in Israel' certificate.
You can plant as many trees as you would like! A program is also available for those of you who want to plant on a monthly basis.
God bless you as you consider purchasing trees for Israel. As you picture in the theater of your mind the beautiful landscape of Israel draped with trees, know that you have helped transform this once barren land. Know that "the hand of the Lord has done this and the Holy One of Israel has created it," but the Lord has used you to help make it all possible.
