The Inside Story of The Arugot Farm Vineyard Demolition-Jeremy Gimpel: The Land of Israel Fellowship

Well, I'm in the car right now outside the municipality here in Gush Etzion. We're preparing for a meeting that we have tomorrow with the land authority. So, I'm not going to get into all of the politics because I think that that's sort of like talking about the vaccine or not vaccine when dealing with Corona. There's something that's deeper that's happening here. Um, you know, last week we touched on prophecy. We had the first the wedding in the Arugot Farm. Like almost a thousand people were there. It was such a huge light that was brought into the world. And when you bring light into the world, sometimes darkness is woken up. And out of nowhere, we got a demolition order on the vineyards in the heart of our property. Like in the valley that connects our farm. It's in the heart of our farm. A demolition order from the Israeli Israeli army saying that they are going to come on Tuesday and destroy our vineyards. And it was such an insane order. Uh, we no impossible to explain such a thing. Um, nothing like that has happened in Judea and Samaria in more than 10 years. There's no reason to destroy our vineyard. It's on state land. There's no court order. There's no one claiming that it's their land. It was just evil for the sake of evil. No, it doesn't matter that there's a family that's livelihood is tied into that vineyard. That there's been hundreds of thousands of shekels, five years of labor where we're finally now able to make our first bottles of wine and all of that is now going to go to waste. They're just going to destroy us? Like what? How? What is going on? It This has been one of the most stressful weeks that I can remember in years. I've been on the phone with politicians, with the media. There were two sleepless nights. It has been a battle. Just in It's um I I don't know what else to say. But it is um it's a sign. Meaning we are at the tip of the spear of Jewish settlement in the land of Israel. That's what we signed up for. This is where the rubber meets the road. And there's going to be friction there. It's going to be hard. It's okay. We wanted that. We wanted to push the envelope forward. We wanted to be where Hashem wants us to be. But to get a demolition order with no notice, with no court order, with no just for no reason other than from some politicians to prove how powerful they are. And uh cuddle up to the left or to the Arab parties. It's just unbelievable. And so, we didn't know what to do. So, call I've literally just called every single person that I've ever met in my life that has any sort of power, any sort of connections. And we've just shaken the heavens. And tomorrow is our final date to meet with the land authority. And tomorrow is the eve of judgment day. And how could it be in such crazy timing if that's not God just sending us a message saying, "Listen, there is a test that's being put upon you right now." Hashem is correcting us right now. We're being corrected. You know, I don't like the word punishment cuz it sounds like we don't. Like it's it's a correction. It's it's fixing us. So, that means that we have something that we need to fix. We're being called to order. We're being called to action. Rosh Hashanah is judgment day and all of a sudden the heart of our farm. If you could imagine prophecies being fulfilled and on the year of Shmita to uproot dunams and dunams, acres of vineyards for no reason. It's like what a dark evil. Who's doing this? And so, there are two levels that I want to address this issue with. One is I very much stand with where Ari is saying. Everything that happens here is in Hashem's hands. And everything that happens happens for the good. So, this may be a long road to victory. It may be a rocky road to victory. There may be ups, there may be downs. And we're ready for whatever they throw at us. But right now, on a personal level, all of us have decrees hanging over our heads. And if we don't correct ourselves, those decrees will come. And they're not going to destroy our vineyards, but they're going to wreak havoc in our lives. Maybe we're ignoring our wives or ignoring our husbands. Maybe we're neglecting our health. Maybe we're not prioritizing our children and our families. Maybe we're not doing what we know we should be doing. Right now, there are decrees that if we do not fix what needs to be fixed in our lives, our vineyards are going to be destroyed. Everyone in this fellowship, it's a blessing because it's a wake-up call. That vineyard is all of our vineyards. And it's just Hashem communicating to us, calling us to order. And so, I kept on praying, "What do I need to fix? What do I need to correct? I'm ready. You tell me and I'm ready." And so, here's what I've come to after many hours of pondering and praying. Why is this happening? And why is this happening now? The eve of Rosh Hashanah out of nowhere. The eve of Shmita to be the vineyard that's going to be uprooted like Wow, we're on the front lines of this unfolding drama in the heart of the land of Israel. What is going on here? And so, here's what I've come to. For more than a year now, people have been sending in their prayer requests to this fellowship, to myself, and to Ari. And I've been praying my little heart out for every single family. Every request, I just pour my heart out as best as I know how. And I know Ari does the same. And Ari started a new initiative where now even he's praying together with the fellowship of people are sending in their prayers. And so, what I realized is that Hashem is not answering my prayers. Hashem is answering our prayers. And so, right now, tomorrow is a form of judgment day. And so, now is the time to not only correct our actions and to realign ourselves with what's good in the world. To crown God as king of our life is finally, you know, throughout the year we always pray, "Oh God, I I want this from you and I want that from you. And I need help with my business and I need help with my marriage and I need help with my children." But on Rosh Hashanah, when he's king, we say, "Hashem, it's not what I'm asking of you. It's what you're asking of me. How can I be a better servant? How can I bring more light into the world?" And so, now my ask is of this fellowship that today, over Rosh Hashanah, they're going to make the decree. And so, now I'm asking all of us to pray together. Not that Ari and I will be praying for you, but that all of us will come together now, all around the world. And at this Rosh Hashanah, we should pray for the land of Israel. Pray for the vineyards in the Arugot Farm. Let's open that line of communication to Hashem because right now this government, the army, the civil administration, the land authorities, they're so powerful. We have no power against them. We're just farmers in the mountains of Judea. We have no political clout, not really. We have a little bit of pull in the media. All we have is Hashem. And so, now I want to call on this fellowship over the holiday to please pray for this vineyard. Shake the heavens. Let's all come together. Not Ari and I praying for the fellowship, but now it's the fellowship praying for the Arugot Farm, our home in the land of Israel, all of our homes. And so, that I think is what Hashem is calling us to do now. He's calling us to call on you that all of us should come together and pray for each other and pray for the land of Israel together. And that's how we're meant to enter into this year. And who knows what miracles might happen and how hearts can be changed. And so, you are on the inner circle of what's going on in the Arugot Farm. And the Arugot Farm is just very strategically placed in the heart of biblical Israel at the edge of Jewish settlement. So, you've all found yourselves at the cutting edge, at the tip of the spear of the Jewish move to settle this land. And now, it's our turn to shake the heavens, all of us, all of us, all of us come together in prayer and call Hashem to reveal his glory and reveal his protection and help us. And so, all of you should have a beautiful, sweet new year. I can't wait to meet you after the holiday and I'll tell you what happens to meet us before Yom Kippur. And Hashem should bless you. He should bless you that everything is good, but we say Shana Tova Umetuka, a good and sweet year. Cuz everything is good, but it's not always sweet. So, we want this year to be a good and sweet year. And so, Hashem should bless you and he should bless all of us with this opportunity to have a direct focus on what our prayers are about, to connect us to a particular place in the land of Israel, and watch Hashem do what he does best and reveal his will in the world. So, thank you all. And um we got to be strong. The nation of Israel is a ancient, ancient people. And the long road that doesn't bother us. So, it's a long road ahead. But together I think that we might be able to just do about anything if we call God into our lives. So, thank you all. Shana Tova Metuka. And we will absolutely keep you updated. Hi, my name is Jeremy Gimpel. A lot of people want to know exactly what the Land of Israel Fellowship is and what members receive when they join. So, let me explain. The Land of Israel Fellowship is a global online community with hundreds of members from over 40 countries around the world. There are live sessions and gatherings that create a direct personal connection to the Land of Israel and to lovers of Israel from around the world. There's no online gathering that I'm familiar with that is connected to the Land of Israel that unites and brings together such a diverse group of people, backgrounds, and nationalities. It feels like prophecy. It feels like something we need in these times, like a window in to a better future on the horizon. There's a divine unity we experience every week in our fellowship broadcast. We heard these amazing teachings from an authentic Hebrew and Israel perspective and our jaws drop. Not only because they ring so true and are such a blessing because they are so consistent with what we believe. These Sunday morning gatherings are nothing less than a house of prayer for all nations. Cindy Lowe, the United States of America. The Land of Israel Fellowship is an amazing resource for learning Torah, the Bible, and the prophets unfiltered and uncentered directly from the Land of Israel. We've been studying Torah for almost 20 years, but we feel we are stepping into it more than ever and seeing new depth and dimensions to scripture. We're encouraged more and more every week. Cal and Ardel, USA. Members receive access to all the archives in the library of teachings on every portion of the Torah, the biblical feasts, Hebrew prayer, prophecy, sessions on the ancient wisdom of the prophets of Israel to help us navigate through these turbulent times. These sessions are so rich. I relisten to each and truly each session is the best one yet. Tehila is a tremendous asset and the teachings Ari shares are so rich. I've read the Bible so many times and I've known the things you are teaching. The Hebrew understanding is what Christians have missed for centuries. Sister Georgian from Germany. The Land of Israel Fellowship is truly unique because it's built upon personal relationships with the teachers of the fellowship, myself, Rabbi Ari Abramowitz, and Tehila Gimpel. Every member has direct access to the staff 24/6 via email or direct WhatsApp to ask questions, to comment, to connect directly to all the teachers.
