Can You and I Be “Friends” with God?
God has always revealed Himself to those who truly desire to know Him…and such were called the friends of God. The Bible says of Abraham: Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. —James 2:23 Art...
Putting Christ First Every Day
We have to make sure Christ is the Lord of our lives in order to qualify for His wonderful blessings. But how do we make Him Lord? We must put Christ first in everything, every day! Jesus first. A lost and dying world is staring down the tunnel of eternity; only...
A Prophecy 45 Years in the Making
I first met Benjamin Netanyahu on July 4, 1980. He was grieving the loss of his hero, his older brother Jonathan on the anniversary of his death and dealing with enormous pain. "Yoni" Netanyahu died leading the raid that rescued more than 100 Israeli passengers from a...
What Is Your Angel Doing Right Now?
A number of years ago on my birthday, a terrorist attempted to kill me. I am certain that had the angels of the Lord not protected me, he would have succeeded. He had already killed two people, a state trooper and a Jewish pawn shop owner. When he was finally caught,...
Practice the Presence of God
In Old Testament times in the Tabernacle and later the Temple, the ark of the covenant was kept in a special place, walled off from view by a thick veil. The ark symbolized the presence of God among His people, and no one was allowed to come before it except for the...
The Good Father
See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made...
Weep with Those Who Weep
I had the amazing privilege of being asked to march at the front of the Israel Day parade in New York City on May 19 with some of the hostages who have been released from Gaza. The Jerusalem Prayer Team has been at the front of the fight for their return since October...
Israel’s 77th Birthday
This year marks the 77th anniversary of the greatest miracle of the modern era—the rebirth of the Jewish state after 19 centuries. Though it seemed to be impossible, the dream of Jewish people through the years for a return to their homeland, was promised by God. ...
How Does God See Jerusalem…And How Should We See It?
When viewing the history of Jerusalem as a whole, no other city has suffered as has David’s City. At times, the city has been overrun by violent assailants. It is recorded in Jeremiah that the city would surrender after suffering the horrors of starvation. While...
God Wants to Be Close to You
God Himself, the Creator of heaven and earth, wants to have a personal, intimate, and meaningful relationship with you. My relationship with my father was nonexistent. As I’ve related, I was severely abused and belittled by my father until I left home at the age of...
What Others Are Saying
Benjamin Netanyahu

“Mike Evans is a cherished friend; he is a fighter for freedom in a world of darkening and narrowing horizons. In his devotion to Israel, Mike has consistently demonstrated the moral clarity that is necessary to defend Israel against the lies and distortions of its enemies and championed the Jewish people’s claim to the Land of Israel.”
