Zola tells the audience
I just saw Zola’s show where he tells of his cancer. It premired this morning on PAX and will be seen on most stations next week. Zola speaks very frankly about his condition and what we all need to be doing in our lives. Time is short—for all of us, and we should be living our lives that way. It’s a very personal episode, entitled “A Personal Note” (Episode V1622).
One thing, though, Zola filmed that when his voice was still bad from the pnumonia and the coughing that goes with that (about 3 weeks ago). He sounded “sick” on this show, but his voice is normal again right now in real life. We were at a deli yesterday and he was talking to strangers, just like always.
Anyway, in case anyone was startled by that, I just wanted to say he’s better now.

Dear Zola – Good to hear a good word, that the pneumonia is better and that you were up and about with Mark. Praying for all of you. Hope the following will be an encouragement for you and Sandra as well. Several years back, there was a time I thought I might have breast cancer and was fearful. That night God spoke to me through the following passage, and I had the deepest peace I’ve ever known (haven’t experienced again since that time, but it happened just when I needed it – hoping He will do the same for you – doesn’t have to be the same passage of course). John 14:1-3 (will add verse 4 for good measure!).
“Let not your heart be troubled:
Ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father’s house are many mansions:
If it were not so, I would have told you.
I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come again, and receive you unto myself;
that where I am, there ye may be also.
And whither I go ye know,
And the way ye know.” Yeshua (Jesus)
Zola, it seems like (I could be wrong) the colors of the first two foundation stones of the new Jerusalem, that will eventually come down from heaven and sit on the raised up land area of Israel, are blue and green (or vice versa). It makes me think of the green grass and trees and the beautiful blue sky. Just a thought. Know we all love you and are praying for you and Sandra and Mark. For some reason I was thinking you might have 2 sons – one with a family, is that right? Anyway, just in case, I’m praying for him, too! Strength to strength. Inez
March 10th, 2006 at 6:53 am
Zola – I was just thinking. Actually the most important part of the passage just sent would be verse four, in addition to five and six – so I’ll finish it (just in case those who read your messages don’t know the Lord!).
“And whither I go ye know,
And THE WAY ye know.” (Yeshua – Num. 21:8,9 – He that took all our sins on Himself – look to Him)
Thomas saith unto Him,
“Lord, we know not whither thou goest;
And how can we know THE WAY?”
Jesus saith unto him,
“I AM THE WAY, the truth, and the life:
No man cometh unto the Father, BUT BY ME.”
Bye for now. Got to get to work! Inez

Dear Zola,
I love you Dear man of our LORD G-D . Zola may our Father bless you and your family during this time. I want you to know that I like your laugh I listen to it on some of your tapes and it makes listening to your tapes so much more delightful. When I heard about your condition this morning I cried to our Father and my Husband and I prayed for your recovery.
I just wanted You and your wonderful Family and Staff to know how much that you have impacted my life and the life of my family and friends. About Five years ago we bought your correspondence course and Four years ago we started a bible study using your correspondence course for about four months (we all ended up moving to different parts of the U.S.) but I want you to know that one of my daughter in-laws friend was in that study group and she was teaching a young children’s bible class and they were taught the right truth and they are also benefiting. My Husband and I were working all around Ohio living out of a suitcase and we got to witness to people everywhere in that state and I used your tapes especially A Christian Love Story which I almost learned word for word since I played it so much ,people wanted to learn more they were starving for the word or just never heard it told that way or never new it at all. And we gave out some of your books . This year we are going to be a grandparents twice over one in August and one in October and they also will be listening to your tapes and inherit your correspondence courses They will learn the truth from you and us about our Father and Israel How Christ died on the cross and shed His blood and paid the price for our sins and was buried, rose again on the third day and was seen by men,and assended into Heaven and is seated at the right hand side of our Father. You said once in one of your tapes that when we get to Heaven we will meet the Prophets of the bible and others and we can say hay I read your book. Well Zola I have never met you in person but when I get to Heaven I will shake your hand and give you a hug and say hay I read your books. I just wanted you to know this and I am sorry I didn’t write sooner.
Thank you also Mrs. Levitt and your children for sharing your Husbands and your Dads time with us and I hope and pray for more time, years even. I thank Mr. Seif and Mr. McCall and others for there work also in the ministry. And thank you staff for all your kind words patience and hard work taking calls and packaging materials. I know that it must be very hard for all of you right now during this time and you are all family to us I will be praying for you Zola and your family this is a big shock!! we will pray for your speedy recovery and our LORDS will in your life. I am glad you are not feeling pain, You have blessed so many people with your life and your time thank you Zola. We LOVE YOU
Be Well Soon.

Dear Zola and family.
So good to hear from you!!! I will continue in prayer for you and your family. I pray the Lord blesses you, and yours, with His comforting arms. “Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.”Ps. 55:22

Dear Brother Zola,
I love you so much! You have taught me so many things. I’ll never forget the 1st time I found your program on PAX. You were teaching about Passover. Chills went over me as you described First Fruits, Joshua leading Isreal into the Promised Land, and the Rapture. I had been taught these things over the years as a Christian, but you taught me from the perspective of Jewish History and customs. This was all very amazing and wonderful to me. Anyway, what I want to say is that you have made a difference in my life!
What a powerful witness you have. Even facing such a serious disease, you still proclaim: tell others about the Lord, get in the Word, and make sure you tell the children. I pray that many will come to know the Lord because of your witness. I’m so thankful that the Lord has allowed your years of teaching to be available in audio, video, and book format long after He calls you Home.
Although we’ve never met, I believe I know your heart and you are a brother indeed. And best of all, someday I’ll see you with our Lord face to face. God bless you and your family. Please know that you are in my prayers.

Shalom Precious Zola!
You came to my church in PA, some years ago. I went to see you with my Mom. We were so hungry for you to share your knowledge about Israel, the times, and of coarse Abba Yahveh, Yahshua, and The Ruah Qodesh. How you have fed us over the years! My Mom and I are so pleased that you are having good days. You have a very special place in our hearts, and always will. We do not know you as your family and close friends, yet our love for you is as a friend or brother, and so, our sorrow. And yet you reach out and strengthen all who love you at this time. What a perfect example you are for us all! Our prayers join with the thousands of others around the world for you, for healing, for the soft warmth of peace and unspeakable joy. As for me, I believe our Precious and Beloved Yahshua heals cancer, and you do too. So for now, toda raba Zola,
Shalom, Shalom,
Shalom in Yahshua,

Well Mr Zola, don’t know if anyone will see this but I just wanted to say that while I really like your ministry and all the good work you do for God, my 80 year old mother, a Arkansas gentile hillbilly, thinks you are IT
She works so hard to try and never miss your show. She quotes you often. What a wonderful life to know you touch so many people around this world. Hey, if God calls you home before some of us, hold up a sign, it will be a pleasure spending eternity getting to know much more about great believers like you, that God used in such a powerful way.
God Bless, David H.
March 10th, 2006 at 11:29 pm
Dear Zola and family,
I was glad to read of your latest update. I am looking forward to watching your program tomorrow. I tape it every Sabbath at 1am, est. and so I receive a double blessing on Sabbath.
In regards to the swelling of your lymph nodes, I have had cancer surgery and have been left with lymphedema of my left leg. I have found manual lymphatic drainage massage therapy (MLD) to be very helpful to me. I too still have swelling of the lymph nodes under my arm from time to tome. I realize you are getting many, many suggestions of help; but I would like you or one of your family to discuss lymphatic drainage massage therapy with your specalists. This is a very gentle massage, very relaxing and the main focus is to get your lymph system flowing through your body correctly again. I never new how important this system is to the well being of our body until I had this problem. The lymph system is used by the body to clear out waste and toxins from the whole system. I cannot tell you how helpful this has been to me. After my cancer surgery I was effected with lymph edema of my left leg. When I get the massage for a regular basis (in the beginning 2-3 times a week)it is amazing how much better I feel not only physically but emotionally as well. I now go once a month, unless I am flying off somewhere. Then I go before I fly and I try to go 7-10 days after. This has helped me and I hope it may be of some use to you.
The under the arm can be done by your wife or anyone shown how to do it. As I said, it is a very gentle stroking method, in the beginning best done by a liscened MLD or CLD therapist.
Shalom and yes, Zola. I DO PRAY FOR THE SHALOM OF JERUSALEM! G-D Bless you and your family and give you all the daily strength you need.

Dear Zola,
Even though I have never met you,you have played such a big part in my life.For the last 25 years,you have taught me so much
through your teachings.I found the TRUTH.I saw the beauty of Israel,even though I have never been there.You opened my eyes to see the “apple of God’s eye”.My life is blessed because of you.
I wept when I saw the broadcast today.I realized just how much you meant to me and the influence that you have on my life.
You are like”family” to me.There is no one as to the point and
honest as you are.I appreciate you!
May the Lord give you and your family strength and comfort as you are going through all of this.You have always looked after the Lord’s interests…and have been such a faithful disciple to his people.
Thank you for everything!
March 11th, 2006 at 2:46 am
Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem.
Those words will never leave our side, or thoughts thanks to you and your ministry.
We are sure that the Lord will provide, and continue to use your ministry through you and family, right up until he comes for his Bride. Stay the course, dear brother, as
you have indeed, been a true, faithful servant. Well done, it shall be said to you.
Praise YHWH Most High. May any suffering that has been allotted for you, and yours, be a blessing unto HIM. Thank you, and we Love you in His Name.
Mark and family.

Dear Zola,
Your ministry has been a blessing to me for many years. I am saddened by your physical struggles, yet I am inspired by your calm unwavering faith in our Lord. May Jehovah Rapha wrap you in His healing arms. I am agreeing in prayer, with all those who ask for a miracle, so you may continue on with your awesome ministry. I pray for your family, and for your ministry staff, to have daily courage and grace.
I will ever be reminded to joyfully “Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem”
Shalom,

Dear precious man of God, we may be taken up to meet Him in the air at any moment. I am still praying He leaves you here with this generation to be raptured with the Saints! Glory Hallelujah! He is on His way back for us!
March 11th, 2006 at 8:57 am
Scripture says …to be absent in the body is to be present with the Lord…but blessed be the man with whom the Lord is present In and Out of the body. We see the Lord in Zola and we will see Zola again in the uncorrupptible body. I am looking forward to dropping off my own some day. To the eternal God Who knew ahead of time and provided the way…Love you Zola although we haven’t met yet…Linda

Dear Zola,
I can’t forget when I found out you had cancer, I was at a service at the Temple Aron HaKodesh, where I just started going. I felt like I was being told my father had cancer.Over the years watching you on TBN.I’ve gotten such a hunger to know about the faith and ways of the jewish people I started to go to this wonderful temple.You are a GREAT MAN of GOD and I know God is not finished with you . We all need you very much and I told God so over and over.My dream has been to go to Israel some day it has always been to go with you and your wonderful ministr y,so you see it’s not your time just a test and you will pass.My prayers are with you and your family always and always ”Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem”.
May God Bless you and Keep you Always

HI ZOLA–FAITHFUL TEACHER. YOU ARE CONSTANTLY IN MY PRAYERS NOW AS YOUR BODY IS FIGHTING FOR HEALTH. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING HONEST BEFORE US AND YOUR GOD. YOU HAVE OPENNED UP MANY OF THE HOLY SCRIPTURES AND TEACHINGS OVER THE YEARS. I WAS FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT IN RHODESIA IN THE EARLY SEVENTIES AND CAME BACK TO THE USA HUNGRY TO LEARN ABOUT GOD’S WORD. LISTENING TO YOU ON DALLAS RADIO AND SITTING UNDER YOUR TEACHING AT OUR CHURCH WAS PURE DELIGHT. THE LOVE I NOW HAVE FOR JEWISH PEOPLE IS A DIRECT RESULT OF YOUR PUTTING OUT THE TRUTH. SO GRATEFUL TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER FOR ALLOWING YOU TO BE MY TEACHER FOR ALL THESE 35+ YEARS. MAY YOU ABLE TO CONTINUALLY HEAR GOD’S LOVING VOICE WHILE YOU ARE INCONVENICED HERE ON THE EARTH. MUCH LOVE AND APPRECIATION TO YOU, ZOLA. CAROL G.
March 11th, 2006 at 8:37 pm
Dear Zola, Your ministry is such a blessing to me. I have been praying about going to Israel with you, and I am very saddened that you are going through this battle. I am a cancer survivor. I know that Jesus is the Healer, and I am believing that by His Stripes You are Healed!!!! I have a friend who was diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer in June. The doctors gave her no hope. Through Jesus Christ and chemotherapy she is in remission and doing great! She also drank Xango, the juice of the mangosteen that is proven in scientific tests to kill cancer cells and boost your immune system. Prayerfully concider this to go along with your treatments. I will continue to pray for your total healing! Love in Christ, Lindsay
March 11th, 2006 at 10:14 pm
I just want to say that Zola has touched the lives of my wife and myself in so many ways. Our love and appreciation for your ministry is a wonderful thing and a blessing in out lives that has enriched us deeply. Our prayers lift you to our Lord as someone we value so much.
March 11th, 2006 at 11:12 pm
With honor I call you a brother in Christ. Amazing at how many relatives we have in Christ and have never met in this life.~~dear love one, of course you are in my prayers that this attack on your body will be one of Glory to our Lord and King Jesus and a physical healing to you.
Your family is in my prayers also and that a peace will be with you all during this time like none you have ever experienced. Know that God is in control and with you.
I do look forward to seeing you in Heaven with our Great Lord and King,Jesus.

Wow… how time flies… I remember, as a new believer in the 80’s watching Zola’s “Return to Gailee” series as a lifeboat… it actually sparked an interest in archaeology that led to graduate studies at Harvard and extensive travels in the Holy Land.
And an unspeakable respect for Yeshua’s elect… His people– those entrusted with the Truth that allowed me, a Gentile, to be translated from the kingdom of darkness to the Kingdom of Light.
I am sure many hours will be spent in the Kingdom of G-d with Rabbi Zola. I sincerely envy him; he will get to see Jesus face-to-face before me!
March 12th, 2006 at 10:50 am
Both of us are saddened to hear of your struggle with cancer now. We have been impressed with this “Rama Word” since we began praying for your healing. “He shall live and not die.” We are praying for God’s healing touch in every cell in your body! We belive in miracles and expect a “Good Report” soon. You have been such an inspiration to our lives! We have just found you on ‘The Church Channel.” We stand with Israel in these last days and LOVE you soooooooooo much. We would so love to tour the land of Israel with you! May you experience God’s healing touch soon.
Love, Cliff and Mary Lou
March 12th, 2006 at 3:14 pm
Dear Zola and Family;
I send this with love for all of you and to let you know that you are in my prayers always. I know God is in the miracle business and I also know that He is holding you in the palm of His hand. If you get to see Him before the rest of us or if we all go together it is a win win situation for you. I just recieved my first Lovitt letter. I have read some of your letters that my friend has shared with me. I live in a senior housing project or apt. building and God blessed me with a wonderfun Christain friend. Her name is Joyce Kreitz. She is a faithful Christain and loves the Lord Jesus with all her heart. She told me about you and let me read some of your letters, but she told me that I should order them for myself. She even gave me the number. Then she gave me the web site so I could get you on line. When she finally got through to me to order the letter, she told me to tell them that a friend was letting me read the letter but had to have them back because she keeps each and every one of them. I, like Joyce, believe in what you preach. The people asked me what my friends name was when I told them that she wouldn’t give me the letters. It’s ok tho because I wouldn’t want to keep them even though I would love to have some of them I know how much they mean to her.
I thank God for you and your ministry. I will continue to hold you and your family in my prayers.
As a former cancer patient I know what you are going through and I also know and believe in the power of our Lord and Savior. He uses many means to heal us. I pray for that.
May God continue to bless you. Love and Blessings. Cheryl Beals

We thank Yahweh for you!
March 12th, 2006 at 9:12 pm
Dear Zola and Family,
I am in tears as I write this because I just found out you have cancer after going through all you’ve gone through with your heart. I had to let you know how much I love you and just what you and your ministry has meant to me for the last 4 years or more. You have taught me so much and even now you are showing the love of God in a way I’ve never seen anyone display in these very difficult times you are going through. I will be praying for you Zola and for Sandra and your Sons as well. I feel in every fiber of my being that we are in the last days..I see evidence of that each and every day, and so I think we are all very close to seeing Our Lord in person. I look forward to seeing your program each Sunday (or Monday) at 1:00 AM but it will be hard to see it after just learning of your cancer. You are such a wonderful teacher and you teach in a way that makes it so easy to understand. Your laugh is so wonderful to hear…and your music is beyond beautiful Zola. The Lord has blessed you with many talents and you in return have blessed us in so many ways. I am so happy to know that so far you are not having a lot of pain and I will pray that our Lord will give you a miracle because He is still in the miracle business.
Isiah 51:11 says, “Therefore the redeemed of the Lord shall return, and come with singing unto Zion; and everlasting joy shall be upon their head; they shall obtain gladness and joy; and sorrow and mourning shall flee away.”
May God continue to bless you dear Zola, along with your loving wife Sandra and Sons.
With much love and prayers…I will pray for the peace of Jerusalem!

Shalom Zola,
Please know that I have been watching your show on TV for several years now. I have always supported your ministry. My family and church are praying for you. You’ve always touched our lives as individuals and in my circle of friends and family as well. Your pressing forth despite your illness is a testimony to us all. Your a true soldier fighting the fight of faith, and there are many crowns stored up for you. God bless you my brother!

Zola,
As a Christian, you have taught me so much about the Jewishness of my faith in Yeshua until it has changed my life. As I have heard it said before-the Church has Yeshua, and our Jewish brothers and sisters have the law-together we form a perfect union because as you have taught over the years, Yeshua came not to abolish the law but to fulfill it, and his heart is not turned away from Isreal but it is reached out to it through his eternal Promise to Abraham. God bless U
March 13th, 2006 at 3:54 am
Dear Zola and Family,
Just wanted to say what a treasure Zola is to us all. I have listened to Zola most of my adult life, and wish that my Grandchildren who are all small could see him as often as I have. I am saddened and also gladdened at the thought that he might leave us. I realize as Zola does, where he will go, and it is such an glorious place, that though he will be missed here, I see his joy in knowing that he will be with our Lord. I’ll pray for you all, and with hope will see him soon.
Shalom, and as always, “PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM”. Vickie
March 13th, 2006 at 7:41 am
Dear Zola and family –
My parents and I have enjoyed watching you for years. We have been blessed by your knowledge and cannot thank you enough for everything you have taught us. Please know that you are in our prayers. Please also know what a wonderful blessing you have been. The Lord surely blessed us all by having you sent you to us, Zola. G-d bless you. “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths.” Proverbs 3:5,6 I do so wish the Lord wasn’t calling you yet, but we will see you in heaven one day – I look forward to talking with you then! Many thanks and blessings to you, Zola, and know that we shall continue to Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem always!

Dear Zola and family,
I am a young woman who has watched you since I was a teenager (yes, you are watched by teenagers!). Your show has always brought me joy and a deeper understanding of Israel and the Bible–God’s road map, instructional manual and will for His children. I am not Jewish by ethnicity, but your show welcomes everyone who proclaims Yeshua as Lord and also to anyone else who has ears to listen! The joy of the Lord is evident in your life and I am praying for you and your precious family. Someday, I will go to Israel to see everything you talk about and what the Bible talks about. Keep proclaiming Yeshua as Lord and know you are loved and being sincerely prayed for.
Keep trusting in Him,
Kia Greenwood

Thank you so much for having these comments published. I once heard a sermon that has impacted me for many years….Send your “flowers” now! So often we don’t tell our friends and people who have made a difference in our lives untill it is too late and then we send them “flowers” when they don’t need them! So Zola I am sending my flowers now, I love you in Christ Jesus and look forward to more of your teaching, either here or in eternity…preferbally here a while longer! In our Lord, Suzanne

Dear Zola and Family
I have followed your ministry since the seventies, and you have blessed me to understand what the Lord requires concerning our love for the choosen peopleof God. You are a wonderful man of God and I love your heart for truth and righteousness. I pray that the only true and living God will heal your body. I have cried every day, even though I know and believe that heaven is a greater place, I just can’t seem to accept this. It just hurts so bad.I came to one of your prophesy conferences once and It was a great service, I had a dream about you zola about two years ago and I saw you standing on a avenue of green trees, I remember thinking at that time that you are such a blessed man. Hold fast Holy Ghost filled soldier and God be with you always. In God’s service Minister Kathy Thomas.

Dear Zola:
I was born & raised a Methodist, and still am. But I have always joked with friends that I must have been Jewish in another life because I’m allergic to pork and shellfish. Even sometimes, strangers have asked if I’m Jewish (I’m Spanish). Truly, I have always felt an affinity with the Jewish people so when I first found your show, I started to watch, but I was confused because the show was about Israel and Jewish culture… and yet you were talking about Christ. I truly believe that you have found the right approach to the Bible. I just wish more people knew about you and your program.
I just saw the show about your illness. I actually cried. I am believing that He will heal you because more people still need to hear your message, a message of conciliation and reconciliation: Christians and Jews are realy one people. I am praying for you each day. While I know that you will joyfully accept the Lord’s will for you, I hope nd pray that he will bless you by leaving you with us for many years yet. God bless you. God bless you, and God bless you.

Dearest Zola and family:
I just learned of your illness…I love you Zola and the sadness is almost overwhelming..I could go on forever about all you have taught me but let me sum it up this way..I would never have known my savior in the correct way had you and your ministry not lit my path..Please know my prayers are joined with all these wonderful brothers and sisters in Christ that you be healed and GODS will be done. Shalom
March 13th, 2006 at 3:05 pm
Be well Zola. The world could use you around for a while longer…but if you are due at the home office soon, I hope that during your performance review you get to see every human being that was blessed by Him through your ministry…and the thousands that are to come. God’s love, grace, and peace to you and your close ones. I’ll be seeing you.
March 13th, 2006 at 3:56 pm
Dear Zola and Family,
Just a note to let you know that I remember you always in prayer. What a blessing you are to Yeshua and to His people. Seeing your show today (‘A Personal Note’), I believe you are right, we are so near to His return and I feel that now is the time to sound the alarm to all who will heed His Word.
A fellow servant in Christ,
Jeff

Dear Zola and Family,
Greetings and prayers to you, Sandy, and your sons. I read all the messages posted in the last couple of days, and realized I couldn’t put into words any better that the others my regard for you, for the work God called you to all those years ago and your faithfullness to that work. In the flesh, I am selfish and want God to physically heal you, so you can continue to teach us. However, God’s timing for all things is perfect, whether His healing of you by prolonging your earthly life or calling you home, where you can hear Him say to you, well done my good and faithful servant. Prayers for you all, and for Israel and Jerusalem, continue here in Seattle.
March 13th, 2006 at 6:28 pm
“Surely our sicknesses he hath borne, And our pains — he hath carried them, And we — we have esteemed him plagued, Smitten of God, and afflicted.
And he is pierced for our transgressions, Bruised for our iniquities, The chastisement of our peace [is] on him, And by his bruise there is healing to us.”
God give you peace and strength as you face your struggles.
Thank you Zola.

Dear Zola;
I am indeed sorry to hear of you illness. If I were God I would heal you right away! Never-the-less Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever, as you know. That means He is the healer today as he was 2000 years ago. I have been healed of prostate cancer! It required 39 daily treatments of radiation which was easy! I had no fear when I was told that I had 5 years, possibly to live without treatment. I felt The Lord wanted me to have it so I did even though I believe in supernatural healing. I have seen many people healed supernaturally over the years including myself. This time however, it required medical help to go along with my faith to be healed. May I suggest to you, dear one, that you get the book “Jesus The Healer” by F.F.Bosworth (paperback). It is just total scriptures on healing. I don’t know whether you are set against fighting the “good fight of faith” for your healing, but what have you got to lose? Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. This book will build your faith. May I suggest that the reason why folks don’t believe it is God’s will to heal is mainly because they have not really studied it out for them selves and allowed God to give them a revelation of his will for healing. They just go along with religion and tradition. Jesus taught us to pray to The Father, “let they will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Is there sickness in Heaven? I don’t think so!Another thing, if it is God’s will to heal us and we refuse His healing grace then, did Jesus shed His blood in vain for healing if it was included in the atonement? To refuse and gift of grace is a slap in the face to God! Again, Jesus but healing on the same basis as forgiveness of sins, didn’t He?
Luke 5:22-24
Why are you ‘reasoning’ in your hearts? 23 Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Rise up and walk ‘? 24 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins” — He said to the man who was paralyzed, “I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.”
NKJV
Zola, don’t give up you have much more to do here. My wife and I will be praying for you and asking God to give yu a fresh revelation of his healing grace. All things are possible to those who believe.
Years ago, I was reading Eze. 38-39 and came to the same conclusions about that invasion as you and appreciate the fact that I found some one who believed that as I did. Up to that time I did not preach or teach on those scriptures until I received a confirmation from a reliable source, such as you.
I love your TV programs and your firm stand on the word of God specially when it comes to replacement theology. I hope you get to read this and would like to visit you. However, I live in Central Florida far from Texas.
My heart goes out to you dear brother and I love you with the love of the Lord.
Be encouraged, pastor,Vern.
Ps 103:1-5
Praise the LORD, O my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name.
2 Praise the LORD, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits —
3 who forgives all your sins
and heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion,
5 who satisfies your desires with good things
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
NIV
March 13th, 2006 at 8:11 pm
Dear Zola,
In faith, we are thanking Father for your healing. We pray that Father will leave you here until the trump blows! We need your wonderful, godly teaching, and warnings for these last days. Your sense of humor is delightful. You have taught us all so much!
God Bless You, Dear Zola,
Loren & Carol
March 13th, 2006 at 8:37 pm
Dearest Zola.
I have watched you for years and am crying as I type this. My husband and I are praying for a complete healing for you. We all need your voice of truth, clarity and un wavering faith in these last days. I was also recently diagnosed with breast cancer and am in the middle of radiation treatment. Satan is very busy, as he knows his time is short. The Lord has always put many Jewish friends in my path and I am needing courage and prayer to witness more aggressively to them. I will continuously pray for your recovery as I believe you are needed now more than ever. Strength,love and prayers to you and your family.

Dear Zola & Sandra, we were greatly saddened to receive the news of your illness. We had the privledge of meeting you in Orlando in december at the Holy Land Experience. We love you like family, you have taught us so much. It is our dream to go on tour with you to Israel. You and your family will be in our daily prayers, you have touched our lives beyond measure. Shalom dear friend, wayne&judy griner.
March 13th, 2006 at 9:49 pm
Dear Zola
It is with sadness for us, your ministry’s audience, that I heard the news on your TV Program tonight that all the wonderful information, teaching, and inspiration your ministry has provided over the years to us may be in jeopardy. However, I will pray the Lord will “reconsider” and allow you to continue to teach and inform us. If not, then I know that for you “the best is yet to come.” His glories and riches cannot be described, and I know He will help you to make the journey to His loving arms with all the hope and joy that awaits those who trust in Him. We will pray for your family, friends, and collegues to have the courage and strength to see you through this time, whatever the outcome, and to trust the Lord “that things work for good for those who love God.” Thank you SO much for all your ministry has given to help educate those of us who have found our way to your TV Program. It has and will continue to mean a lot to us, and we look forward to the Programs in the days ahead. May the Lord go before you and lead you in His perfect will.
March 13th, 2006 at 9:56 pm
SHALOM! Zola and Sandra
I am believing that yeshua will heal you so you can continue his work.
My family and I are praying for you and Sandra. I hope to take a trip to
Isreal with you after you recover. We need you here with us. You have helped
me in my walk with yeshua and I reley on the truth you teach.
Sandra if you need some one to talk to please e mail me. I went through
cancer with my husband. I will listen and help if I can.

Dear Zola, Sandra, Mark, Aaron, and staff: I continue to pray for Zola’s healing and the comforting of all of you by ourLord. I did watch the latest Zola TV program and it was wonderful. Zola’s voice was a little rough but good otherwise. He came across in a powerful way. I did send a special offering in to mark my continuing financial support of the ministry. Keep doing what you are doing and I will to at my end. Praise God for his mercy…Marietta Redman
March 14th, 2006 at 5:24 am
Happy Birthday, Zola!
March 14th, 2006 at 6:30 am
My love and prayers are with you Zola and your family … I am still somewhat in shock as i just recently learned the news of your battle… well, the battle is the Lords, and I trust He knows that we still need our Levi priest to instruct us… however the decision to graduate you to glory is ultimatly His and really rather selfish of me to want to keep you here…but I must confess that I will be going continually before the Lord with this issue.. from my heart to yours…..keeping Israel in prayer for their peace….Hugs…sm
March 14th, 2006 at 7:27 am
To our dearest Zola, You are in our prayers that this cancer on your body will be one of Glory to our Lord and King Jesus and a physical healing to you.
Your family is in my prayers also and that a peace will be with you all during this time like none you have ever experienced. Know that God is in control and with you.
I do look forward to seeing you in Heaven with our Great Lord and King,Jesus. See you at the Banquet Table. (next year in Jerusalem)
We love you and thank you for teaching us and blessing us with your love, Hal and Gayle

How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the gospel of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things! (Isa. 52:7) This Scripture indeed applies to Zola. An idea came to me and I thought I’d share it with the viewers/friends of Zola. I propose that we take things a step further with our praying to The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob for Zola’s healing. It may appear to be a little radical to some but I think we can give more power to our praying by adding FASTING to our prayers. As a matter of fact, I propose that we set aside a specific 24 hour period for fasting and praying to Jehovah Rapha for Zola’s healing. I propose this only for those who are ABLE to do it (e.g. if you are on medication then please don’t try fasting…. but continue praying). There is more power I believe in the fasting/praying combination, particularly when it is performed in a CORPORATE fashion (i.e. the people of God assembling themselves and praying together in unison). The fasting and praying can be an ongoing individual activity that we can perform as we are able but I propose that we also pick a specific date for corporate fasting and praying for Zola. How about starting the fast Wednesday, March 22, 2006, 6PM, EST, ending Thursday, March 23,2006, 6PM EST (and of course, praying in between)? This gives us about 1 week to prepare and to get the word out. The date is flexible but we need to move on this because time is precious. Our friend Zola faces what appears to be an insurmountable obstacle. However, the children of Israel also faced what seemed to be insurmountable obstacles and God delivered them, time and time again. He can do the same for us and He can do the same for Zola in this current age. Yeshua has shown us this powerful technique (fasting and praying)(see Mt 17:20-21) to perform unimaginable feats….with the simple faith of a mustard seed. I’m going to do it for my mentor and friend. Anybody else up for this? I think it’s worth a shot. I would appreciate some feedback on this proposal. Todah.
Lloyd
March 14th, 2006 at 10:00 am
I dont know if I can handle the fast part but Im already praying For Zola and all his family and friends. I pray God will spare his life-he is one of the great men and teachers of God and we certainly need him down here. Jesus blessings on Zola,Sandra, Mark and the whole family
March 14th, 2006 at 10:19 am
Zola – Have watched your show and read your newsletter since being born again back in 1977. Can’t tell you in this life how the Lord has used you to encourage me. Much of my family (Mom, Dad, Jewish Uncle, Aunt and their daughter) later became Christians and loved Israel and your heavenly down-to-earth teaching as much as me. We’ve since buried my parents and uncle(my dear Dad just passed away Oct 15th of cancer). They all remained steadfast until the very end. In spite of all the pain and trouble the Lord gave them the strength they needed to endure and rejoice that they were going to be with Him forever and would live in Israel in new resurrection bodies. I really am jealous of them because they are rejoicing with our beloved Lord Yeshua this very moment! I know you want to go home too but we need you here now more than ever. I am praying that the Lord will be kind to us and heal every part of you that you may live until He comes. Whatever His decision may He comfort you and your dear family and staff in the midst of this terrible storm of life.
March 14th, 2006 at 10:57 am
Hi Zola – just wanted to send one more note regarding fasting proposed by Lloyd. When I got home today for lunch – had the bread out, tomatoe sliced, turkey, cheese, baby spinach – think the mayonnaise was already on the bread and I got this sense that I needed to fast – wasn’t sure – stopped and went to read a little Bible in Jude and pray – then went back to fixing the sandwich and got on the internet site to check for an update. About half-way through the sandwich, I read Lloyd’s note. Sounds like a great idea to me. Got the date written down. Wish we had done it in unity on Purim – alas!
Hope you’re having a good day.
March 14th, 2006 at 12:16 pm
There’s a scene in the Bible of the last days about ten gentiles hanging onto the hem of a Rabbi’s garment,yearning to learn from
him…for the past 25 years or so I have been one of those gentiles wanting to learn more about Israel and Judaism. What a great teacher
Zola is,and whatever happens I will remember what Zola taught.
March 14th, 2006 at 7:33 pm
I wasn’t aware of Zola’s illness until I saw this show where he announced it. I was shocked and terribly saddened when I heard. I’m a fairly new viewer of his show (about three months now) and was really enjoying them. I obviously haven’t developed a close connection to him as other long time viewers have, but I just wanted him to know that I’ve been praying for him ever since then. My prayers are with him and his family. I enjoy his enthusiasim, knowledge, and kindness. He’s been very inspirational to me the short time I’ve watched, and I hope the very best for him.
March 14th, 2006 at 11:24 pm
Shalom & Happy Birthday, dearest brother Zola,
“Behold, thou hast instructed many, & thou hast strengthened the weak hands.” (Job 4:3) Now may YOU be strengthened by the power of the Ruach HaKodesh, & be borne up on eagle’s wings. I must admit, I’m still not quite over the shock of this news, yet in Yeshua our Messiah, we have HOPE. May His life-giving Word restore, refresh, revive, & HEAL you completely. May the Lord reveal Himself to you as never before! Zola, there are many whom you’ve never met who cherish you as part of our lives. You & I go back about 25 years. Hey, I’m still playing some of your records from the ’80’s! Your influence in so many areas cannot be measured, & I selfishly want more. May the Lord see fit to keep you with us a while longer. What a blessing it has been to read the beautiful sentiments of the others on this site! I’m joining with them in prayer & fasting for you & your loved ones.
In 1988 I was diagnosed with a rare type of lymphoma, & should not be here today. Now my oncologist says that I am her top success story. I am most undeserving of this honor. To GOD be the glory! Just thought you might be encouraged to hear another testimony of His deliverance from cancer. May you, too, amaze your doctors. THANK YOU for being the Master’s instrument in spite of your trials. Keep pressing on toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus! We’re standing with you!!
In Yeshua’s love always, Karen
March 15th, 2006 at 2:49 am
Zola,
Just wanted to drop a line to you letting you know that I spoke with my mother who is a pastor of a small church, they are all praying for you, we are praying for God to continue your work and give you strength and peace in this difficult time your facing. Keep up the good work my brother in Yeshua, with him or with us we hope that God will continue to use you.
Shalom
Alex
March 15th, 2006 at 2:55 am
I agree with Loyd, lets fast and pray for Zola’s recovery. As a child I was diagnosed with Lymphoma cancer, my mother and saints prayed and fasted without ceasing for me, and God completly healed me, I hope he does the same for Zola.
March 15th, 2006 at 7:23 am
Zola, my husband watched your personal note broadcast and I want you to know that it is weighing on him hard to witness as you asked. Thank you for your honesty, sincerity, and urgency in sharing your heart. It is wonderful to watch your life as a witness in not just what you say but in everything you do.
With Love,
Sandy Driggers

Dear Zola:
I enjoy watching your program each Monday morning on TBN. Was very sad to hear this Monday about your health issues. There is no doubt that the devil wants to stop you from proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ, so do not let him.
Though the doctor’s report may be serious, it is not the final word. Jesus said on the cross “it is finished”. That is the true report. Zola, just as sure as you know of your salvation and that you will be in heaven when you leave this earth it is also just as sure that you have been healed by His stripes!
In Matthew 9:27-31,Jesus asked the two blind men who cried out to him ,”Do you believe that I am able to do this?” When they replied, yes Lord, He touched their eyes and said “According to your faith let it be to you”. We know that Jesus has not changed. He was able then according to their faith, and He is able today because it is done. It was done at Calvary.
Zola, please do not accept the enemy’s lie. You are a victor in Christ Jesus.
My wife and I are praying that your faith will be multiplied and you will soon be declaring the works of God.(Psalms 118:17)
March 15th, 2006 at 11:48 am
Dear Zola,
All I can say is that it is a WIN WIN situation. You’re either going to Meet Jesus Christ, the Ultimate Joy of which we can all look forward too, or you can continue to Serve the Lord down here while time remains, and help all of us lost lambies.
Its a WIN WIN situation for more reasons. 1st of all, You have no worries, Zola, because you have served the Lord mightily!! You’re Free and Clear. The main purpose here on Earth is to PLEASE and HONOR our Father. You have done that. Look at all the people of the Bible. They had their ups and downs, but now they are UPPPP!! Zola, you have laid a solid foundation on The Rock which is our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. You have trained your sons and family and fellow workers, they will continue without a doubt your work. You have witnessed before many many people and have said that the Lord Jesus Christ is your Personal Savior, therefore the Lord Jesus will pronounce your name to God the Father. In my opinion Zola, you got it in the bag. I have nothing but respect and love for you.
Zola, one more thing, take just a second to look down the ages in the Bible. Look at how the devil does things. He repeats himself many times. This is just yet another try to stop the work of the Lord. Well, has he succeeded? Nope. Not at all.
Do you know of all those church burnings in, (was it Georgia, or Alabama?,) but those 9 churches that got burned down, well this one Pastor stated, you can burn down all the Churches, but the Church is in the hearts of the people. Bingo! The devil may try to take away Zola, but too bad ole’ devil, Zola has already taken us to the saving grace of Jesus Christ!!!
The devil bowed his head
Because he knew that he’d been beat
And he laid that golden fiddle
On the ground at Johnny’s (Zola’s) feet!
We (Mom and I) Love you very very Much Zola!! Praise God forever and ever Amen!!

My Dearest Zola and Family,
I love you more than words can express and you are all in my daily prayers….
You have thousands and thousands of people praying for you Zola and we know the Lord’s Will is going to be done…..I have no remedies to send your way….haha … All I can say is keep up the good work, keep up your good Faith.
Want to say thank you to everyone keeping us informed…..I look forward each week to your program and always tape them….I know your work will go on even if Jesus calls you to Paradise because there is so much of your materials we all STILL NEED TO ORDER…..I am still working on my Institute of Jewish Christian Studies…..I am determined now to get in there and go all the way.
God bless you Zola, you are a real blessing to all of us.
March 15th, 2006 at 4:24 pm
Zola, Sandra and Mark,
Your ministry is one of the reasons that we have developed such a heart for G-d’s chosen people. We have (as gentiles) helped to form a messianic congregation here in Lakeland, Florida. We were blessed to see you several times here in Florida. You will always be in our prayers. Not our will, but His will be done!
And, as always, we will “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem” (and for the soon return of the Prince of Peace)

Zola,
I have asked my church to pray for you and your family. We are praying that God will heal you to His glory so that you can work till He comes. I told some friends about you. They are the ones that first brought me your Christian Love Story. That story started a revival in my life that lasted years and it is the best booklet I have ever read. I am glad to know you win whether you live or die, if you’re a Christian. Thank you for teaching me so much about end time prophecy. We had always hoped that you would live to see the rapture and the way things are looking we may still get our wish!
March 15th, 2006 at 11:18 pm
Zola, if it wasn’t for you my life never would have been changed by going to Israel. And you were so generous to let me go on the trip after my Mom died (I was supposed to be leaving the day of her funeral). Spring 1999 was a pivotal time for me because of that trip. I will most certainly certainly be praying for you and Sandra in this time…and let’s hear it for all those Great Jewish Doctors! Thank you so much for all you’ve done for Israel! Hope to hear about your recovery soon. Much Love from NYC!
March 16th, 2006 at 11:34 am
We are interested in participating in the fast for Zola that Lloyd talked about. Starting March 22 2006 at 6PM EST and ending March 23 2006 6PM EST . This is Spiritual Warfare and the troops stand ready to do battle against Satan. Maybe Loyd can let us know more. We think this is a wonderful plan! There is power in coporate prayer and fasting when God’s people stand united.
We are praying daily for Zola and his family. We believe in miracles!
God Bless always – Cliff and Mary Lou
March 16th, 2006 at 6:41 pm
No offense Zola, I hate to keep you from the Lord, but I’d like you to hang around quite a while longer. You’ve got forever to enjoy paradise. I hope you’ve had a James type healing service by now.
May you be healed by the stripes of Yeshua,

Dearest Zola, You have been a gift from God to me.I have such love for you and your ministry.You are a gifted teacher and watching you these past few years has given me a love of scripture, Israel and of course Jesus. You are such a beautiful Godly man and I want to say THANK YOU!!! I will continue to pray for you and your family. May Our Lord continue to comfort you. Yours in Christ, Serena Lansbrug

What a blessing from God it has been to learn about Jewish history from Zola. My friend used to tell me what a burden she had for the Jewish people, and I didn’t know why. She began to explain how Jews don’t believe Jesus is the Messiah. I had no clue. Then she told me about Zola’s program. I have been watching ever since. He is so knowledgable and so heart-felt. I love his honesty and candor. He is not “politically correct” and I love that about him. We need more people like him in television ministries who will unashamdely tell the truth of the gospel. I was heartbroken when I read his letter online yesterday, and in the same breathe, I rejoice in knowing he will soon be at the feet of His Savior. I can only imagine what joy Zola will have and hope for the day when I, too, will see my Savior’s face. Only God knows how many lives Zola has touched with his ministry. I have put a manorrah as my cursor so I will remember to pray for Zola whenever I am online. I pray God’s will in this situation and pray for His peace to be on Zola and the staff as you go through this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Lisa Collins

Zola, and family, please start taking Communion Daily-IT WILL BOOST YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM -People don’t realize the miracle of Communion. Start making healing confessions out loud. Please visit the Healing Rooms in Houston texas, and let them pray over you-you can go back as many times as you want. It is such a loving atmosphere!
Visit Dr. Renny MClean, a half-jewish brother who has active miracles in his ministry as we speak. Have him to lay hands on you, he is in Irving, Texas. Give him a call, visit.
There is no need to die with all this miracle power so close to you. Fight the good fight of faith and LIVE!
Contact the ministries of John Hagee, and Kenneth Copeland, they are both in Texas, they have mighty, mighty intecessory prayer warriors.
In the name of Jesus……….Zola……..LIVE!!

THANK YOU, ZOLA, FOR TEACHING THE TRUTH! AS A CHRISTIAN, I RECENTLY DEVELOPED A HUNGER TO LEARN MORE ABOUT MY SPIRITUAL HERITAGE & YOUR TEACHINGS HAVE BEEN SO BENEFICIAL TO ME IN THAT AREA. TODAY I SAW THE HOST OF JEWISH VOICE TODAY ON T.V. COMPARE THE CALLING OF THE END-TIME CHURCH TO THAT OF ESTHER. IT WAS POWERFUL & TOUCHED MY HEART SO. AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I WOULD NOT HAVE UNDERSTOOD THE IMPORTANCE OF ALL THAT WAS SAID IF IT WERE NOT FOR WHAT I HAVE LEARNED FROM YOU! WE MUST PRAY THAT THE CHURCH LEARN & DO ITS ROLE IN SPREADING THE WORD TO THE JEW FIRST.
ZOLA, YOU ARE A MIGHTY WARRIOR & YOU HAVE REVEALED SO MUCH TO SO MANY. A MILLION THANKS!! BE BLESSED, & GIVE OUR LORD PRAISE CONTINUALLY.
March 18th, 2006 at 1:23 am
Hi Zola:
We’ve been partners for a long time. You have always been such a blessing and inspiration to me. I just want to say that if we get ’snatched away’ this month (which is very likely) your cancer will be moot! I’ve had many diseases over the years (including some killer ones) and I’m still here. It seems when I get through one I get another one so I can try it out and see what it is like. However, like you, I don’t fear disease or death. ‘Perfect love casteth out fear’. We are safe in the arms of the only perfect love that exists; God. There is one Scripture I have always clung to during illness or any other disaster…”be still and know that I am God”. You do what you have to do, and God will do what He wants to do. Whatever the result, it will be perfect. I love you Zola, and I am praying God will heal you to His glory. It would be so wonderful if we could be raptured together.
Shalom
March 18th, 2006 at 5:25 am
We are still praying for you. It is in God’s hands but we sincerely hope He will heal you and you can continue to be a blessing with your ministry until “He comes”.
May God be with you in the days ahead, and may the Lord give Sandra and your family peace and rest in Him.

Dear Zola,
You have been a champion of pro-Israel advocacy – a leader, in fact, – and as a Jew, I want to personally thank you for the thousands of hours of effort and hard work you put into the production of your television shows to educate the millions of viewers of your tv program about Israel and her legitimacy and her inherent rights as a sovereign nation. I personally have been a fan of your television show for years and have even linked to some of your shows on my pro-Israel blog, Smooth Stone, so that others may also be educated.
We have been overwhelmed by the news of your disease and we pray for you each day for a Refuah shelaymah ([have a] full and peaceful healing.
With love and friendship and thankfulness for praying for the peace of Jerusalem,
“Smooth”

Zola and Family,
Sir, you have impacted my life in a way that inevitably leads to Christ’s glory. Furthermore, you have deeply enhanced my understanding of Jewish traditions, Christ’s never-dying commitment to the House of Israel, and Judeo-Christian relations.
Although we have no claim on His sovereign Will, I pray for your restored health, in accordance with His Will.
Your brother in Christ Jesus,
Mikael Knighton

Dear Zola, Staff and Family,
You are in our prayers continually,looking forward to seeing your program on “Sky Angel” tomorrow (Sunday). The urgency of the hour, and the evidence of your confidence and trust being found “IN HIM” as you face this physical battle, causes us to pray more and more…for you, the ministry, your family..AND the Peace of Jerusalem!
How the Lord has blessed us through you dear brother; and we give him all the glory, now and forever. You will be healed, his way, his timing…til then SHALOM!

Dear Zola,
Your last TV message “A Personal Note” was just that. It was rich with honesty, sincerity, truth and wisdom. It was also intensely tender. There’s so much to thank you for, but that talk was special; you were telling us the things we need to know and focus on now. Your faith, courage, and profound love are evident. You give us a lot to live up to! I look forward to your next program (we call them “Zola visits”) and hope that this has been a week of answered prayer for you. You, Sandra, Mark, and your staff have our prayers and love.
God Bless You!

Zola & family,
We were surprised, and a saddened for a brief time when we heard the news in your “A Personal Note” program. But, as always, you were so upbeat and encouraging! We are praying for you & your family here in our small corner of Washington State. We have been blessed by your messages, music, and specials throughout the past 25 years and want to bless you and your family as God directs our prayers. We believe in miracles as well as the comfort of our Heavenly Father during trying times. It is no accident that we are all part of God’s bigger picture.
Shalom,

Dear Zola and Sandra,
You have meant so much to me in these days when very few ever speak about Biblical prophecy or Israel. Your show even helped me through some unexpected dark days, something I never thought I would have in my life. You proclaim aspects of God’s truth that are being ignored today…truth which the church needs to hear, know, become, and remember.
For many reasons, you have been an example to me and my family. I am happy that this awareness and love for Israel has been passed to my own children at Northwestern College in Minnesota and Biola University in California.
I always dreamed of going to Israel with you. If it turns out I can’t go there with you in this body, I look forward to meeting you there later. God bless you.

Dear Zola and Family,
We are very sorry to hear about the bad news. Our prayers and thoughts are with you Zola and your family. We are praying for a miracle. You’re a great spokesman for Israel and Christianity- You are a mighty servant for the Lord and his kingdom. We pray that you make a complete recovery so that you can continue with your ministry.

Dear Zola and family, We are a small group that home-worships, and we are all saddened beyond words. You have provided so much guidance and knowledge to us, we cannot thank you enough for opening our eyes to so much, especially Israel and God’s chosen people. We all love you and thank you, and we will miss you terribly (but as you said, you will be getting a great promotion). Below are some notes from others in our group:
Dear Zola and Family, Thinking of you in prayer, after the shock of hearing about your cancer. All I could think of, that the Lord has used you as our prophet and teacher all these years, and now, after the “churches” have rejected His message, He is calling you home. I learned so much from your teaching letters and programs and admire your firm stand. We just pray for mercy, that you won’t have to suffer much pain. Love Gerald and Maria Grunz.
Dear Zola and Family, When you think about it, you’re a “lucky duck,” you don’t have to wait until the rapture. In a sad way, you will be missed, but then comes the happy thought that we and your family will see you in Heaven again. Thanks for all you have done, we will pray for your family for peace of heart. Love Joanie Kronebusch
Dear Zola and Family, We don’t want to lose you. You have become our special friend and teacher. I don’t know what the Lord’s plan is, I know He can heal and spare, or call His servant home. I know there are natural things out there that cure, yet who in their right mind would want to stick around down here? Zola, just know that you are much loved, prayed for, and would be terribly missed. Thank you for being obedient to our Lord, and teaching us so many things, warning us of things coming, showing us Israel, prophecy, music, and Jesus. We will continue to love and support Israel. If you go, we won’t be far behind you! Shalom ~ The Kock Family (a little house church in SE Minnesota).
March 20th, 2006 at 12:05 pm
Hi Zola – I hope you are doing alright. Looking for messages from Lloyd about the fast to start on March 22nd. Figured on a full fast the 22nd and a partial fast (liquids) the 23rd. Will also be praying for 2 patients of mine with advanced cancer recently diagnosed, one like you, with presumed lung cancer (large tumor). Still hoping the Lord will keep you with us. As it says in Collosians – ‘being strengthened with all might according to His glorious (supernatural) power, unto all patience with longsuffering and joyfulness’. May you and your ministry go from strength to strength in the Lord. By Zola – must get to work.
March 20th, 2006 at 3:15 pm
My Dear Zola and Family,
My prayers and thoughts are with you continually.
You have been such a blessing to so many and we are anxiously awaiting spending eternity with you and working with you throughout eternity where we will never grow old.
Oh the things our Lord has planned for us we have no idea, we are humanly unable to grasp the beauty of our future….What a glorious Day that will be to have all knowledge and all our questions answered.
Thank you for teaching us so much and making the ‘Old Testament’ come to life…What a joy that has been.
God bless you and your beloved family….Thank you Lord!
We will continue doing all as unto the Lord!
March 20th, 2006 at 4:42 pm
Dearest Rabbi: You may not remember my family, although I’m sure we stuck out like a “brown” thumb (ha!ha!…ok…). We started coming to Shalom Shalom Congregation in 1999, as guest of Pat and Claudia, now our dearest friends. We continued until just before the Biblical Art Center suffered its lost. Through you, Sir, we learned so much. I’ve sent you a letter detailing the miracles in our lives through your ministry. We hope you’ve received it. I am a Messianic Jew, no longer ignorant of our culture, learning to read and write in Hebrew with my little boy, who use to call you Wabbi Zoe”. Our lives are not the same today. All Glory to G-D, but we are very grateful to your obedience to HIS Will through your ministry. Be confident, Sir, that in our lives your fruit will remain.

Hay Zola, Bravo !
I saw your show and I agree with you.
Yes this is a promotion bro.
I know that you believe in Yeshua and YHVH, I pray that your work will continue till the very beginning bro. I wished that Yeshua would come back so we all could be with G-D.
Hay Zola I ask the L-rd Yeshua to bless you and take you home to be with him and that we all will meet again soon and be together. I will miss you greatly. Your show and ministry has been a blessing to me. All my love and prayers are with you bro and with your family also.
YHVH & Yeshua Jesus bless brother,
G-D’s Speed!
Love Yehudah ( Judah .

Dear Zola,
We are glad to hear your pneumonia is better along with your voice. We didn’t
get to see you on PAX last time. Sorry we missed it. We are still praying for
you, your family and staff for God’s will to be done and praying for HIS
healing hands to be laid upon you, for HE is the master physician and only HE
can grant this to us.

I have watched your program for over 25 years, I believe. It is a WONDERFUL program.
A friend was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer 6 years ago, and was not expected to last a year. Her cancer has gone into remission. Today she is active and enjoying speaking for Christ. Another lady was diagnosed with an aggressive cancer and not expected to live over a few weeks. She died of a heart-related stroke about 40 years later. I truly think it is all up to God. We need you, and God knows that. You are the only one I know who tells us the things we need to know. Everyone seems to be pretending that things are not really the way they are. Thank you for bringing us that message. It will probably be a matter of where you are most needed. I will be praying for you and your family.
March 21st, 2006 at 1:29 pm
Zola, Friends and Family,
I am so thankful to you for the truth that you have spread through your show. It hurt my heart deeply when you spoke of your illness. My father passed away at age 48, 29 years ago from the very same thing. I was a mere 18 years old and I didn’t know the Lord then. I pray knowing that by His stripes you were healed. You are such a servent of God. There is very few out there able and willing to speak with authority on Christ and the world today and we need you. May the Lord’s Grace, Love, Peace, and healing fill you and all around you. In Jesus’s Name
March 21st, 2006 at 2:55 pm
Hello all,
There have been several of you that have expressed an interest in fasting/praying to God for Zola’s healing. A date and time were suggested (03/22/2006, 6PM EST until 03/23/2006, 6PM EST). This is still a “go” as far as I can tell (no one has raised any objections that I’m aware of). This is a proposed 24 hr fast. However, please keep these caveats in mind:
1) If you are elderly and/or are on medication, then please DO NOT fast. If you can’t go without food for an extended period of time without getting sick then don’t try fasting either. If you feel that fasting will make you ill, then I suggest you don’t try it. Fast only if you are able to do it.
2) Fasting means no food, so I’m abstaining from eating any food during this fast. Some prefer drinking water during their fasting and some (like myself) do not. Either way is fine in my opinion. Some of us can fast for a few hours, some for 6 hours, some for 12 and so on. Personally, I’m going to attempt the 24 hour fast. Those of you that are able to participate…..do what you can. The Lord knows our hearts. Our spirits indeed are willing. Every bit of effort on our part adds up as far as I’m concerned. Something good will come from this.
3) If you doubt that God can heal Zola, then don’t fast, because that fasting will be in vain.
We all know that our Father has the power to heal (hence His name Jehovah Rapha). I believe He will act upon our requests. His Son, Yeshua, indicates to us quite clearly that there is power in the fasting/praying combination (see Matt 17:20-21). We are simply accessing a wonderful tool that He has made available to us. How can one receive anything if one doesn’t ask? How can one tap into unheard of power if one doesn’t fast? I think it’s good to take advantage of the opportunity that is set before us. Do what you can. All of our effort is for the same cause…the request for complete healing for our friend Zola, as well as for anyone else in need of complete healing; so feel free to include anyone else in this request. Is anyone else as excited as I am about the possibilities that exist here?
It is written, “I say to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.” (Matt. 18:19)
I believe there are at least two of us out there that are in agreement for the healing that will take place. Let’s fast and pray together, whatever the duration. It is written, “All things work together for good to them that love the Lord….”(Rom 8:28). Let us, first of all, bless God, for His past healings, His present healings, and his future healings. May He bless our combined fasting and prayer on Zola’s behalf and on the behalf of everyone we are asking to be healed. In addition, may He bless all participants in this most worthy endeavor. Inform your friends and family about what are trying to accomplish. Shalom and Todah.
Lloyd

Dear Zola,
You have my highest respect. I have been watching your TV show for years. I always love to hear what you have to say. Your teachings have blessed my life abundantly. May God’s great peace fill your life, and heart. May the love of the Father be multiplied in and through you. Your ministry has impacted my life. I shall never forget.

Dear Zola,
Your ministry has touched my life over the years and given me a deep love and understanding of God’s Chosen People and His perfect plan for our lives. I was shocked when you told us of your recent illness after just recovering from heart surgery. I just couldn’t get your song “Father, I’m Coming Home” out of my mind. I do love your music and ministry and plan to support it the best I can.
Love In Christ, Jo Mills

Dear Zola, family and ZLM workers,
One of my family’s oldest friends, 30 years plus, has survived three separate trips to MD Anderson in Houston. On every occasion we prayed for her healing and return to health. Prayer and fasting works. Period. If others cannot fast then they should pray for those who do, and pray for your healing Through our Great Physician and Healer. Zola, this world would be much less tolerable without you, your ministry and all that you add to our lives…. This is not a get well soon card, it’s a get well now….
Shahalu cholim, Shahalu Refuah!
Faithfully His and yours,

Dear Zola Levitt,
As a cancer survivor, I emapthize with you and your family. My father and one sister died from this disease, but it caught their attention to get right with the Lord. Another sister, who was a pastor’s wife and a faithful Christian, fought hard to survive her cancer, yet she went Home. My mother was dying from breast cancer in the late 1950’s. After exhausting any and all medical chance of beating this disase,she reached the point in acknowledging the only way she would live is God healing her. The miracle took place, and her funeral in 2002 was more miraculous because it should have taken place 45 years earlier. My mother said she knew the Lord healed her because He still had work for her to do on earth. What I learned from observing my family’s experences and applied to myself when diagnosed with cancer in 1993 was to ask “Is my earthly mission near completiton, or are there still works the Lord wants me to do?”
One work placed in my life in the past two years is witnessing to my Jewish neighbor and his Jewish family through a lifestyle of loving them and appreciating their heritage. My neighbor is amazed every time I tell him that I had prayed for good neighbors and the Lord had planted him and his family next door to me. He knows I am a Christian, and laughs whenever I call him “son of Abraham”.
Mr.Levitt, I depend heavily on your television and radio programs, web site and lessons. So, if you should ask if your mission on earth is near completion or if there are still works to be done the Lord wants you to do, please keep in mind I need someone to educate this Christian gentile how to approach the Jewish people in her life to show Christ’s love without reproach.
March 21st, 2006 at 10:05 pm
Dear Zola, family and staff…
I watched the program the other day with Zola speaking to all of us about this health problem. I appreciated Zola speaking to us as a family…like a dad or uncle sitting us down to tell us the truth about a family matter. I have walked that road before myself. I have had cancer and the Lord Jesus Christ healed me. But many times our healing is the greatest one of all…our homegoing! Like the song a few years back said…”at the ultimate healing we will be home free!”
That was a beautiful song that Zola wrote and played on the piano that day. I wanted to let you know how blessed I was by Zola’s attitude. When we have Christ there is no sting in death. Yes we hate to lose loved ones but we hurt in a different way. Our deaths are the ultimate test of our belief. We can go out screeming, cussing and clawing our way out or we can lean on the everlasting arms of Jesus and lay our burdens down at His feet. Thank you for showing people that we should not give up or give in but at the same time we shoud live in the rest that Jesus died and rose to new life to secure for us.Thank you for sharing your faith with us. I pray for your healing but over all else I pray that God’s perfect will be made perfect in your life.
God loves you brother Zola…and we do too!
Love and prayers in Christ Jesus!

Dear Zola,
It has only been a short time since I’ve discovered your program and yet I feel as if I’ve known you my entire life. I have come to appreciate your insight and the strong-gentle way you expose all truth’s to us, your friends and audience. My only regret is that I didn’t discover your program and material sooner. While it is never comfortable going through these illnesses or watching someone have to deal with it, you consistently teach us that everything in the Old Testament pointed to Jesus The Christ and even through your life and your consistency in staying the course ‘Rightly Dividing The Word’ and exposing the false doctrines for all of us to be aware of proves to us once again, testifies if you will, that such faith defies the naysayers that Jesus Christ lives and for those who sleep and are/were believers will one day come out of the grave in the very same incredible manner as did the Lord. As a fellow Minister so aptly put it, no one in their right mind dies for a lie.
Zola, please know even though we may be strangers to you, we are indeed praying for and with you, because where any two agree in earth on any one thing and asked of Him (Jesus) it will be done by the Father! We appreciate your every effort to continue to teach and open our eyes and hearts to mysteries of God.
Thank you and your family for being what the scripture(s) teaches us is a Christian. You friend in Ministry, Tim Rutherford.
March 23rd, 2006 at 2:33 pm
Dear Zola, Sandra, Mark and Aaron,
I have shared your personal message with others. Some of whom are in a similiar physical condition – and there is the “not knowing” for the rest of us. You are a strength and inspiration. I am sure that you and your message will provide many hearts comfort in the coming days of uncertainty.
But one thing is FOR CERTAIN, our faith is not in vain – but for SURE! It IS exciting to know that you will be in the presence of our Lord Yeshua (Jesus) and all the saints that have gone before you. The conversations will be so interesting and I wish you would be able to make a program with each soul that you will be meeting in heaven – that would be a long, long program!! But one I would anticipate with excitement.
I listened to your words with purpose to give me the courage to be rejected – but as you said, maybe just one will listen and one will believe.
Thank you for sharing with us all … and may all comfort be given to your family and all of us that have grown to love you and your ministry – always and forever.
I think of you often,
With much love through Christ Jesus, Yeshua Messiah

Dear Brother, I just learned about your cancer from your website. I just started watching your show recently and tell everyone I meet to please tune into your unique and wonderful ministry. I see you on TBN at 6:00 am where I live. I have been so uplifted by your show. I will pray for you and your family. In Christ our Lord and Savior Sue….
March 26th, 2006 at 4:27 am
Dearest Zola and Family, I think about you almost all of the time and could never know why these things happen to good God loving people. I pray for you almost every day for God to comfort you and ease your pain. I love you Zola Levitt with a Godly love and i promise after your home with our LORD ,,,i will continue to pray for your family. I beleive we all will be there very soon,,, so my prayer is you will be waiting on us all with a smile on your face knowing you are at forever home. With Love In Christ, Kimberly W.
March 26th, 2006 at 9:21 pm
Zola,
I have been listening to your podcasts for several months now. I wish you well. As a physician, I can understand your trouble, but I am encouraged by your words.
Thank You.
March 27th, 2006 at 1:03 pm
Zola,
I am in agreement with John Buck’s e-mail. I have been praying for you and my heart is very sad. Have you ever mentioned the bible codes and what is your thought on them? I have always wanted to go to Israel and I have always wanted to go with Zola.
April 9th, 2006 at 7:30 pm
Paul & Betty Ingram send our love and prayers for zola’s complete recovery.
May 20th, 2006 at 10:44 am
So very sorry to hear that Zola has passed. It will be a great loss to the Christian world. He beat us to HEAVEN, how wonderful for him. He was one of the General’s of the Lord here on earth.
God bless his family and ministry.
In Christ,

June 10th, 2006 at 9:05 pm
Searched for Dr. Jeff Seif but couldn’t seem to find an e mail for him yet. Anyway we want to welcome you to this new direction and are looking forward to meeting you, perhaps in the fall tour since we will be going with you. We are confident that you will carry on Zola’s burden for his beloved Israel. We will pray for you and stand with you as you take the mantel. May our Lord Jesus bless you and give you everything you will need to help prepare the world for the rapture.
May His richest blessings be yours and remember “As we give Jesus the priority, He grants us the opportunity to serve Him more completely.”
In Christs service,

I WILL NEVER FORGET ZOLA AND HIS BEAUTIFUL WIFE WHEN THEY CAME TO WINSTON, OREGON, TO THE REPLICA OF NOAHS ARK.
I ASKED HIM FOR A BLESSING AND HE PRAYED FOR ME IN HEBREW AND THEN THE INTERPETATION IN ENGLISH.
I ASKED IF I COULD TAKE A PICTURE OF HIM AND HIS WIFE WITH ME AND HE SAID YES BUT IT WOULD COST ME $1.75 CENTS. I SAID WELL, IF I FIND TEN RIGHTEOUS PEOPLE IN THE AUDIENCE WOULD HE GIVE ME A DISCOUNT? HE TOLD ME I COULD HAVE ONE FOR FREE. I DID GET ONE AND DID PAY HIM THE $1.75. HE WAS FUN. HIS BEAUTIFUL WIFE ENCOURAGED ME TO GET MY BLESSING FROM ZOLA.
