More test results
On Thursday, March 30, Zola was evaluated to see how he did with the radiation and chemotherapy. I’m afraid the results were not too good. The treatments did greatly help the cancer in the lungs and brain but his liver has deteriorated, so I don’t think they’re really concerned with the other things anymore. The prognosis is now set at six to eight weeks.
I’m sorry about having to give this bad news. The good part about this is that liver failure is more gentle than sucumbing to lung cancer. Zola no longer has to be afraid of not being able to take a breath, etc. near the end.
Certainly, no one is ruling out a miracle, though. Zola did say last Friday that if he were to receive a miracle, it would be a big one, because this isn’t just back pain he’s suffering from. On the other hand, though, we don’t want to go against God’s wishes, and maybe it is His will that Zola join him to help welcome people into His kingdom. Maybe God needs some more Levites on His staff.
I say this because, though I don’t know a lot about cancer, Zola’s experience with it has been pretty mild so far. So maybe that right there is our answer to our prayers. If Zola isn’t healed, it certainly won’t be from a lack of prayer. So the only alternative is that this is God’s will.
Zola has access to supplemental oxygen if he were to need it, but it doesn’t seem to help right now. He also has a patch to deliver pain medicine and that has helped a great deal. He’s not in pain, exactly, but he doesn’t feel good and is tired a lot. The patch has helped with that. He has spoken with hospice workers about care that may be necessary down the road. He is now using a walker around the house to keep him steady. So everything necessary is being done.
One thing to remember also, is that the TV shows you see of him talking about his illness were filmed about a month earlier. On days when he feels well enough, he continues to film TV shows. There will come a point where he looks good on TV but is not well in real life. Just something to be prepared for. I will try to keep you updated here.

Dearest Zola,Sandra, Mark, and all,
Words fail me, so we just want you to know that you are in our daily prayers and thoughts. As many others have so eloquently expressed, we love you and what you have taught us for so long. Thank you for keeping your “extended” family so well informed. You all are a blessing to us, and we continue to ask for a miracle, in Jesus’ name.

Dear Zola and Family,
My husband and I have really enjoyed you and all we have learned from you the last several years via TBN, your news magazine, and the internet. We are so sorry about the state of your physical body. We have just concluded a roller coaster health battle with my own beloved daddy (January 31 to March 19, 2006) which ended in his homecoming, so if the Lord takes you home, too, please say hi for us to Jasper Anderson and tell him we love him and miss him; he had always wanted to go to the Holy Land, but alas it wasn’t possible. My husband and I have been once and we desire to go again one day. We would like it if the Lord would grant you more time, but if not, we will miss you greatly. We thank you for your wonderful ministry. You have been a wonderful testimony for Yeshua. We hope to see you one day in our glorified bodies. In His love,
C.A. Davison

To my dear brother in Christ,
The “seeds” you have sewn are sprouting.
Your obedience to God will bring in a harvest.
The Lord will say to you,
‘Well done my good and faithful son, welcome home.
Here’s a robe and a crown just for you.”
Peace to you and your family.

Dear Brother Levitt,
I wrote you the following email on March 13, after hearing the broadcast of your diagnosis. I don’t know if it got to you, so I have copied and pasted it below.
I know you are a man who hears God’s voice, and I ask you to persist in prayer to ask the Lord to tell you his will, whether He wants to take you home or trust Him for healing. God will not fail to speak to you about such important instructions any more than a good general would fail to communicate instructions to a soldier in the heat of battle.
What if this is a trick of the enemy to take out an important soldier of the Cross at a critical time in history rather than the Lord’s call home. I urge you not to leave this important decision in the hands of chance or a doctor’s diagnosis, but instead get alone with the Lord in prayer and ask Him what is true and what He wants. If He says He wants you to live, he will give you the faith to stand in His promise. In such a battle, each of us must hear the Lord for ourselves.
In such a situation, the word is still true that “I can do all things through Him who strengthens me.” (Phil. 4:13)
Also “You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.” (I John 4:4)
And, “Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,
knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance. And let (L)endurance have its perfect result, so that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him. But he must ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind. For that man ought not to expect that he will receive anything from the Lord, being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.” (James 1:2-8) This is certainly a time when anyone in your shoes would lack wisdom as to how to proceed. God promises to give wisdom so you can cooperate with His revealed will. Therefore, I urge you to ask the Lord what His will is and grant you the faith to cooperate with Him.
If you don’t ask for His wisdom, you could stand in the shoes of Israel when they failed to ask the Lord’s wisdom about the Gibeonites and made an unholy covenant with them because they were tricked. (Joshua 8 and 9)
What if you don’t ask the Lord His will, and you get to heaven to have Him ask you, “What are you doing here! You are supposed to be down there telling people the truth about my endtime plans right up until the rapture! How did you get tricked into coming here prematurely”?
Brother Zola, I do not presume to know the will of the Lord for you, but I do believe you DO NEED TO KNOW and you NEED TO HEAR IT FROM THE LORD ALONE. God bless you.
In the Lord,
Becky Subrahmanyam
Below is my original email to you:
Dear Brother Levitt,
I listen to your broadcast weekly and am very thankful for your ministry. You are one of a handful of television ministers with deep concern for Israel and end time events that I consider to have a pure ministry that approaches fund raising in an honest straightforward way.
I am very sorry to hear about your diagnosis. Personally, I believe it would be a great tragedy for you to go home to the Lord right now when your message is so important, but only the Lord knows his plans and I will always bow to the will of the Lord.
I was diagnosed with breast cancer a little over ten years ago. At the time we had 9 grandchildren, 8 of whom lived as neighbors on either side of us. Their moms, my daughter and my daughter-in-law, were homeschooling and I was the science teacher. Though I was very willing to go home to be with the Lord, I really believed that I still had work to do, so I sought the Lord about His will for me.
My diagnosis was not very bad. We caught the cancer early and the doctor said that if I had a radical mastectomy, I would likely be completely cured. The diagnosis came in November 1995 just before my daughter gave birth to boy and girl twins. Because of all of the family chaos, I ask the doctor if I could wait until after Christmas to have the surgery. He said that it would be all right, but right after Christmas I needed to get the surgery done.
I fully intended to have the surgery and my husband and I explored the options of a prosthesis or reconstruction. All during this time I was thanking God that we caught it early and, though a little uncomfortable about the idea, I wasn’t too upset about losing a breast. But as I prayed, I felt the Lord wooing me to trust in him alone. I really didn’t want to hear it because I knew even if I was hearing the Lord, I didn’t believe my husband or my family would agree.
I was raised in the Church of Christ, and though I completely missed the concept of salvation by faith as a child, as a young sinful adult, I found the Lord in faith in a Church of Christ. The Lord was gracious to give me a neighbor who was a member of the Church of God. My husband was from India. He grew up a Hindu and became a radical atheist through his university study of biology. So because of my husband, I was grateful to have a neighbor who believed in God and Christ.
She and I spent many hours praying and studying the Word. In essence, she discipled me, but ultimately the gifts of the Spirit, tongues, and healing surfaced in our conversation. To make a very long story short, the Lord convinced me that the Holy Spirit was alive and well on planet Earth and that He still gives gifts to men and heals them. Also, after a long and painful study and struggle, my husband came to the Lord. All of this happened in the early 1970′s and I had been walking with the Lord, outside of the Church of Christ, for over 20 years when I was diagnosed with cancer.
Healing has always been a struggle for our family. Though we have long believed in God’s power to heal, it seems easier to go to the doctor when you are sick and take their advice. This is especially true concerning children. Up until this diagnosis, I had experienced God’s clear miraculous healing a half a dozen times, but it was usually in response to someone else’s prayers and it never seemed reproducible on a consistent basis.
When the Lord begin to say to me that he could heal me without surgery, my response was, “Yes, Lord, but the surgery will heal me too. Are you saying that I can’t have the surgery?” Then I sensed the Lord say that I would ultimately have to trust him alone. The Lord never clearly said it, but I sensed that the cancer would come back even if I had the surgery. I never sensed any condemnation or judgment if I had the surgery, just the sense that ultimately the surgery wouldn’t solve the problem. I knew, for me, it would be harder to trust the Lord alone later on if I didn’t trust the Lord alone now. For a few weeks, I struggled alone with this issue just between me and the Lord. The amazing thing was that God was building my faith through his word and through a few Christian books. Even though I was beginning to believe that the Lord wanted to heal me, there was some doubt that I couldn’t escape from. It was like a little pepper-sized speck of doubt, but I knew that it was hindering complete faith. I told the Lord that I didn’t know what was still worrying me. He took me to Psalms 69. As I was reading it, I came to verse 6 that says:
May those who wait for You not be ashamed through me, O Lord GOD of hosts;
May those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel, …
Immediately I knew my fear was that, in this experiment with the Lord, I would fail to come to “healing faith” and my untimely death of cancer would devastate the faith of my family and friends, and my lack of faith could become a source of stumbling for them in their faith. If I had the surgery and died, they would be sad, but not as prone to stumble. When the Lord so clearly showed me my fear, He also assured me that He would take care of it. I finally knew that the Lord would heal me if I trusted Him.
Then came the day that I broached the subject with my husband. I was sure that he would not even entertain the idea for a moment, but he said it was my body and my choice. He wouldn’t make me have the surgery if I didn’t want to. I told him that I could never make such a decision unless he was in 100% agreement, because both of us would have to live with the consequences. It would have been easier for both of us if I had been in your shoes with no hope but the Lord because the doctor gave me a 98% chance of being forever cancer free if I had the surgery.
Next, I had to approach my children. I knew that they needed me to help them raise their children and wouldn’t be willing to take a chance on my death. My own two children and their spouses were willing to stand with us if we decided not to have the surgery, but my foster daughter told me that the Lord had told her that I was deceived and wasn’t taking the help that God had provided. Her opinion was quite confusing and hurtful, but the Lord reminded me that in a fearful time, He was building my faith, something not likely to happen in my own mind.
As the time to make a decision drew near, one morning my husband asked the Lord in the shower, his daily prayer closet, “Do you want to heal her by surgery or directly by supernatural healing?” After he got out of the shower and was getting dressed, He heard the Lord say “unblemished.” He knew somehow that it was a word from the Lord, but, I guess, being a man, he told me that he didn’t know what it meant!! When he told me, I told him that I knew exactly what it meant. God wanted me whole, not with missing parts. He still had to ponder it a few days before he knew for sure that that was what God was saying. He even doubted that God said it, but he realized that “unblemished” is not a word he ever uses, and, in fact, may have never used before. For a completely foreign word to enter his mind was unlikely.
Finally, he realized that God’s will was to heal me without surgery, and he came into complete agreement with me. Then we had to tell the doctor. We were pretty sure that he would freak out and think we were both nut cases. But the doctor’s visit went fairly well, and he agreed to let me follow my conscience. However, he encouraged me to have a mammogram every 6 months, which I agreed to do. I realized that he fully expected the mammogram would show tumor growth and I would change my mind.
As I was studying healing and spending time with the Lord, he brought me to the passage in James about calling on the elders to pray for someone who is sick. At the time we were between churches. We had been attending a church in a nearby city, but felt that the Lord wanted us to be in our own city. At the time of the diagnosis, my husband and I were meeting alone together every week, so I didn’t know what “elders” he would have me call on. Ultimately, the Lord gave me the name of a missionary that we had heard a few times who believed strongly in healing. My husband agreed, I called him and he prayed for me over the phone and pronounced me healed.
I didn’t feel healed. I knew the Lord would ultimately heal me, but I didn’t feel or sense that I was already healed. I thought this would be a long difficult walk and that I might come close to death before I was healed. One night shortly after telling the doctor our decision, my husband had a dream. I do not remember all of the details or the exact words that he heard, but essentially he said that he was walking in a dark place with gigantic 3 dimensional box-like objects in the path like one might find in a video game. As I remember, as he approached each colossal box, it dissolved. As he was walking in this environment, he prayed and thanked the Lord that He was going to heal me, but the Lord said something like, “What do you mean ‘when,’ she is already healed. Since that day, my husband has never doubted my healing.
It is now over ten years later and no visible sign of breast cancer. The doctor told me that it would eventually grow into a grotesque and disfiguring tumor, but it hasn’t happened. Everything is just as the Lord said it would be.
In sharing my testimony with you, I am not asking you to believe that God will heal you, but I am asking you to ask the Lord what he wants to do and whether He is he ready for you to come home or whether this is this an attack of satan to devestate a ministry and a minister that God wants on the earth for these end times. God is so faithful to deal with us just where we are and bring us along in faith if He is calling that you battle for your life. If He says battle rather than die, ask Him if you should use chemotherapy or just rely on the Lord alone.
If He says “Battle!” and you engage the battle, I will be glad to stand with you that God will heal you. But you must hear Him say it, and you must agree. It is very hard and not very fruitful, in my experience, to stand for someone’s healing who believes he is going to die.
God bless you and let me know if you would like me to stand with you for your healing.
In the Love of the Lord,
Becky Subrahmanyam
P.S. Two books that the Lord used to minister to me during that time were Divine Healing by Andrew Murray and Ever Increasing Faith by Smith Wigglesworth.

Dear Zola and Family,
I cannot express my sorrow over your diagnosis, yet I rejoice with you in the Lord that, if it be His will, you will soon be at home with Jesus. You don’t know me, but you have been my dear friend. Your show airs at 1:00am in Cleveland, Ohio and I stay up to watch, learn and worship with you. I have learned so much from you and want to thank you for your life of true ministry. I pray the Lord’s blessings on you and your family, in the Holy Name of Jesus, Amen. God bless you and keep you, my friend. Julie
April 3rd, 2006 at 5:17 am
Dearest Zola,
Is it a wonder you are so loved, I have prayed as has countless others for your healing, we have all cried for you, I guess what makes this so difficult is not so much the suddenness of the sickness as much as the suddenness that you will soon depart from us. I would like to say thank you to the entire Zola family, to the crew, and to the countless others who have been a part of this ministry through their giving, you all had a part in sharing in this wonderful mans ministry to us. I thank above all our Lord and Savior Joshua who gave us such a wonderful man, a gentle spirit, a faithful brother, we all know and are sure that we too will join Zola and that this is a temporary setback. We too as did the Lord in that day will rise again, apart from sin and sickness, perfect, like Joshua Messiah, we will cry with joy to see all who will love once again, and at that time the Lord Himself will wipe away every tear, and there will be no more rememberance of these difficult times or this world. Dearest Zola, may the angel of the Lord encamp about you, and may the Lord himself welcome you into His everlasting Kingdom. I can’t help but feel the helplessness which surrounded those who loved Paul, but knew they would never see him again. We too are saddened, brother you have run the course, you have finished the race, may we all be counted worthy to stand before our Lord.

Zola, Sandra and Staff;
I know you don’t know us from Adam’s cat; but you’re all a big part of this family. We will certainly keep supporting this ministry. I think this must be as the disciples felt when the their Teacher was taken from their midst. I have finished your correspondance course–and am wondering why it took so long in my life to know all these things! It’s not that I wasn’t in church. We play the tapes from the course over and over; I play them for our children; I play them for a small study group on Thurs. nights (only three of us–but where few are gathered in my name!). Zola, you once did a Passover demonstration for the Presbyterian Church here. We had lunch with you–and then to our house for dessert. Know you won’t remember; but we’ve never forgotten. Also, you look so much like my brother! 1938 was a good year to be born, Zola. I ought to know! My father died of lung cancer. When the pastor came into his room, he asks if it was right to pray to die. The pastor replied, “Of course, it’s what we’re suppose to be living for each day”. Wait for all of us at the gate—and save me a fluffy cloud—and a harp. I certainly can’t play one down here! Hugs and prayers, Margaret and Cecil
April 3rd, 2006 at 7:33 am
Zola,
I also have written before. I have been so blessed by your ministry, words could never tell.
After reading the letters by Becky S. regarding getting God’s perfect will whether to fight to live, I feel prompted to share with you that fact that in my own quite humble life, the 3 people I know that are taking BOLD stances for ISRAEL’S RIGHT TO THE LAND and JEWISH EVANGELISM are now suffering health issues. The time is crucial as I don’t have to tell you. One of my friends also suffers from liver cancer, another has chronic intestinal problems (She lives in THe Land). Just asking you to consider the possibility this is a plan by you know who to wipe out your voices.
Also, you know about the liver offering in the OT. Please pray about this.
I feel you are a part of my family, dear Zola. YOu ar every loved and would be very missed. The tears have already begun to flow..
YOur spiritual daughter, and sister in Christ.
April 3rd, 2006 at 8:14 am
Zola, I had so hoped for your healing. I think I wanted it for more selfish reasons than many…you encourage me and I enjoy your ministry! We will continue to support your ministry, whomever the Lord raises up to continue this vital work.I don’t want the day that you are taken from us to dawn, but rejoice for you all the same. Like your son said…we pray for the Lord’s will to be done and request healing, so we know that since we asked, whatever happens will be his desire. I have full confidence in the faith that you and your family hold in Yeshua…from the way you live and from your words. I do not believe that your faith is not as strong as it should be or has wavered at all. Thank you for your service and love. You have been faithful. May the Lord’s Peace continue to be with you and your entire family, friends, and staff. Num 6:24-26 “The LORD bless you, and keep you:
The LORD make his face shine upon you, and be gracious unto you:
The LORD lift up his countenance upon you, and give you peace.”
April 3rd, 2006 at 8:35 am
May Jehovah Rapha hold our dear brother Zola in His arms, giving him healing and strength. Bring comfort and strength to his family, and to those in his ministry. Every day that Zola is able to speak to us is a blessing. Amen
April 3rd, 2006 at 9:15 am
Dear Brother Zola,
As with many others, you have touched our family for many years with your faith and teaching. You have been more than an encouragement to us and have helped us redouble our efforts to keep our eyes on our Father and have encouraged us to study, worship and pray together as a family. You faith and dedication has always been a comfort and an ensample of His Love for us.
My family feels a special connection with you from the many years we have watched and learned from you. The short experience we had with you and Sandra celebrating the Feast of Trumpets in Dallas touched our hearts and encouraged us to begin to celebrate the Feasts and Celebrations as a family. This has brought us even closer together as a family and I would like to think as a part of God’s holy family.
We continue to lift you, your family and your ministry up in our daily prayers. May His will be done!
In His Love and Fellowship,
Shelby and Kim Cooper and Family

Dearest Zola, Sandra and children,
I am saddened to get the news of the test results. I am reminded that though our bodies faileth there is One who does not. The Lord Jesus Christ.=) “Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth…He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; amd they shall walk; and not faint.” (Is. 40:26,29-31)Amen.
I continue to pray the Lord will comfort and strenghten you, and your family, in
Christ Jesus.

Dearest Zola, Sandra, and sons
Words fail at such a time. When my father was given a similar diagnosis, he was very releived that the treatment stage of his cancer was over. Feelings are mixed at such a time; we who will be left here mourn, but heaven rejoices when one of God’s faithful servants comes home. Zola, you have brought such insight and understanding to me and my family about beloved Israel, the necessity of continued prayer for her and her leaders, and most especially how Jesus is the Mesiah, the promised one, the fullfillment of Old Testament prophcy, our Lord and Saviour. God Bless you and your family, may He be close beside you at all times, and may he comfort your family.
Your Sister in Christ,
Jo

Dear Zola, Sandra, Mark and family,
Our family has been touched by your ministry for so many years. I’m (Pam) a Messianic Jew married to a Gentile believer and your ministry has helped us to raise our brood of 5 understanding their Jewish roots and how to walk it out in their day to day walk with the Lord. What a blessing you are!! Thank you soooo much for your example as a Jewish believer!!
Our hearts are grieved for what you are going through, but are glad for the peace the Lord has given you. Our prayer is that, if the Lord has it for you to be with all of us for more time, that He give you a speedy healing and that, if the Lord is to take you Home, that it be in peace and without pain, knowing all He has for you to accomplish is done and that He will comfort your loved ones around you.
All we do know for sure, dear friend, is that you have been a joy to the Lord in all you have done for His Kingdom. Whether it is soon or years from now, when you come before His Holy Presence, no doubt He will say, “Well done”.
Our prayers are with you and yours…
Much love and blessings, Dear Brother in Our Messiah,
Ralph, Pam, Rebecca, Joseph, Sarah, Rachel, and David Cipriano

April 3rd, 2006 at 12:28 pm
Sorry to hear the latest news, but lets not give up hope that God will have mercy on the Levitt family and us and spare Zola for many more years of service down here with us, after all Jesus has worked miracles before and there are lots of people walking around today that the doctors said wouldn”t. In any case we know thatt through Jesus blood and grace we have eternal life with him and that whatever happens “all things work together for those that love the Lord”. Just want to thank Zola, his family and whole organization again for all the years of hard work and sound Bible teaching. You are all in my prayers,God bless and keep you. God bless you Zola and thanks. You have our love and prayers.

Zola,
We love you as a brother in Christ! My little children pray for you daily, and my 4 year old daughter never forgets you in prayer even as she blesses our food at mealtime.
I thank God for your wonderful heart to serve Him. You have taught our family many things about scripture and our God. How do you thank someone for such teaching? Truly, the work you have done for the Lord will reap eternal harvests!
The Lord bless you and keep you.

Dear Zola, Sandra, and family;
I’ve been closely following your progress as has my wife. We feel so blessed to have seen you in person at the Holy Land experience and had plans of travelling with you and Sandra to Israel.
I tuned into your ministry at a crucial time during my conversion experience and your work has been a tremendous source of enlightenment. Your work and inspiring talks have brought my faith to life and I am very grateful for that.
I close with mixed feelings. I’m ready to go home as you are but I don’t think my mission has been accomplished. I admire and share your feelings that death is gain as Paul spoke of and yet I’m not ready as I still have work to do. I suppose that you feel that you are not finished yet either but Zola, what a run you have had!
I admire and respect you and will miss you tremendously. As we part I want you to know that you have inspired me to find and cultivate what God’s mission is for me during my remaining time here.Your impact in spreading the good news has been absolutely inspring and encouraging.
In Yeshua,

Zola:
DO NOT GIVE IN TO THIS CANCER! One word from God will change your life instantly. You MUST believe that. The only thing that stops us from receiving is that “doubt in our hearts” Jesus speaks of. I know you’d rather be with Jesus (so would I) but there is still work to do. Ask God to do whatever will glorify Him most (not you). If taking you home would do that (I’m not sure how) than so be it, but if healing you will bring more glory to God than go for it. You might say, well, what if I stand firm on being healed and die anyway. Well, so what! Then you’ll know for sure it was God taking you home and not the devil killing you. Zola, please, please, please, don’t give in or give up. Divine health is not perfect health. We won’t have perfect health until we get to heaven, but we can all have divine health. This is when we continue functioning whether we have a disease or not. God holds us up and strengthrens us. What would knock an unbeliever down does not effect a believer in divine health. Zola, stop talking about death, thinking about death or letting people talk to you about death. I was very distressed to hear “you were being allowed to eat anything you want”. I was in patient care for the elderly for nearly 30 years. The only time doctors say “eat whatever you want” is when they have written the person off to death and don’t think there is any reason to try and help them anymore. Believe me Zola, this action is not a kindness toward you. It’s the opposite. Eat only natural foods, drink plenty of juice and water and get plenty of fiber. The cancer is a living thing, don’t feed it, kill it. Remove the subject of death and get on with your life.
Shalom

Dear Zola,
I can remember some years ago when I first saw you on television. I wanted so much to go to Israel with you but it never did happen. It was not God’s timing. While in prayer, the Lord told me that “I would be with Him in Israel one day”, the New Jerusulem. I believe with all of my heart that God is wanting us all as believers in Yeshua to pray for the return of Jesus NOW. I can almost see HIM turning the door knob now (smile)!
I just recently had one of my young twin daughter’s go home to be with the Lord. She to had cancer. In fact, she had accepted Yeshua as her Savior just before she went into her surgery. What comfort I had knowing just where she was and that I would see her again!
I believe all of God’s word, every word. God’s word says that we would be able to do ‘greater’ miracles in the last days than were done in biblical days. I stand on HIS word for a miracle for you!! I know that I don’t have to be there with you but that the power of Jehovah Rapha, The Mighty Healer will be there with you the second I pray for you!! I stand on HIS word!! God is truly the miracle worker!!!
Thank you for all the wonderful programming and music you have brought to each and every one of us throughout the years!
You have been such a blessing to me!!
Shalom,
Love in Yeshua,
Carolyn

Dear Zola, What a blessing you have been in my life. I am a gentile believer who has discovered her Jewish roots and you played a big part in that. Your obedience and uncompromising faith in Yeshua has been an inspiration to me as well as countless others around the world. I am saddened that your “graduation day” is nearing but also a little bit jealous that you will see our Savior face to face. I am praying for your healing whether it be here on earth or up in heaven. God grant you His Shalom and strength to you and your family.
My husband went to be with the Lord 5 years ago. Should you make it up there before me, perhaps you can say “Hi” to him for me and give him a hug. His name is Alan.
God bless you, Zola and Sandra and Mark.
April 3rd, 2006 at 3:38 pm
My dear brother Zola…Thank you for the many years(20 plus) of teaching me about my Jewish roots in Messiah Yeshua…I have been sooo blessed by you..I will truly miss you IF it is your time to go HOME…I soo hope you get to stay til”we who are alive and remain” will get to go together.But either way we will all rejoice together at HIS throne and ours.I love you dear brother..God’s will be done..Shaloam and todah rabah(sp)..Lucy Nelson

Zola and family,
You don’t know how much your ministry has meant to my walk with the Lord. I will never forget receiving my first order from your ministry on the feasts. That booklet opened up a new world for me in understanding the Word.
I try to always watch your show and have learned so much from you. God has used you in a mighty way. Bless you for being so obedient to His calling on your life.
Selfishly, I want God to work a miracle and allow you to stay here. But I am praying to accept His will in this.
I know when He sees you, He will say, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
In Christ,
Rhonda
April 3rd, 2006 at 3:51 pm
Zola, My heart is broken over your failing liver and cancer. I was crying and thought “Zola is like losing my own brother”. Then I realized you ARE my brother in Christ. I was thinking Zola, maybe you can continue to teach us while you are still here on earth. Teach us how to die in the Lord. Those are hard teachings but none of us know how to die. Most of us are not where you are in this earthly process but if the Lord does not come soon we will be. The Lord has you here for us and we are here for you. We love you Zola, now and forever more.
April 3rd, 2006 at 4:09 pm
Zola and family,
Thank you for blessing this family with your love of the Scripture and the love of Israel. We have learned so much from you these years!
This is not good-bye…for we will meet you there.
In Christ,

Dear Zola and Family,
I found your show not long after I became a Christian. The Lord gave me a love for the Jewish people from the very beginning. Your work for the Lord has always been a blessing to me.
What can I say? Though I know dying is “to gain”…but I’m heartbroken. I love you in the Lord and will pray for your recovery. If it is the Lords Will for you to leave this Earth now, I will look for you when it’s my turn.
Because of you I always pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
Shalom, My Friend.

I am a new comer to your show. but i love it. i hope, if god be willing, a miracle will happen. if not, there is no need to fear dyeing because you know where your going
April 3rd, 2006 at 5:47 pm
Dear Zola and family ,
I have followed your ministry from the 70′s .You have been a blessing and inspiration to me and my family. God has certainly used you to speak to me . I am glad God has given you the dignity, and grace to continue till the end. Whatever happens we will see you at the reunion in the sky. May your ‘ crossing the Jordan” be painless .
April 3rd, 2006 at 5:56 pm
Remember Isaiah 53, He took out infirmities upon Him so that by His wounds we are healed. Zola, you and I are healed of all infirmities of the past, all of the present and any of the future. Christ has taken that cancer you’re fighting 2000 years ago and you must believe that. Isaiah 55:10-11 tells us that God’s word will not return empty but will accomplish what it has purposed. Therefore, when confess our healing in the Name of Jesus it will not return empty but will accomplish its purpose. Zola and all who read this, Isaiah 54:15 – 17 says that if anyone does attack you, it will not be God’s doing but God has created the blacksmith who forges the weapon; yet no weapon forged against you will prevail. This is your heritage and vindication because greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world. But God’s message through Isaiah makes it clear that you must rebuke the tongues of the enemy that have accursed you. Rebuke what you are fighting for Christ has given you the keys of the kingdom of heaven (Matt. 16:19). If He can bring a rotting dead man back to life in Lazarus, then surely He will restore you call on Him and worship Him in spirit and in truth. As much as I want to watch more of your TV programs in the near future, worshiping Jesus is the best way to spend you strength until you are 100% healed.
April 3rd, 2006 at 6:22 pm
Dearest Zola and Sandra and Mark and Aaron,
I look daily for news and just read Mark’s update. Although I have tears for your family (of which are soooo many), I know the Scriptures. I know the Scriptures from the eyes of a man born as one of God’s Chosen People – and I have come to understand the purpose of the Scriptures because of all the hard work our God has provided for The Messenger – always signed as “Your Messenger”.
Your personal message has been on my heart – to risk rejection, ridicule, and heartache – it is WORTH all that we might experience if just one will listen to the Message. I know that if life and death were in my hands, I would much rather take your place. Your mission on earth has been and is and will forever be so IMPORTANT. When I speak about “you or your”, I know that the hundreds of people that are assisting you are wondering how they would be able to go on without you. I think this is how the followers of Yeshua must have felt when He died on the cross that day.
But the Message speaks much louder – HE IS RISEN!!! HE IS RISEN, INDEED!! That means there IS HOPE, there is a FUTURE, there is PLACE called HEAVEN, there is a LORD and KING and GOD that LIVES – and because of this MESSAGE – we are comforted, we are fortunate, we are FORGIVEN because we TRUST and BELIEVE in the MESSAGE – THE TRUTH.
I pray the LORD will give me the strength and ability to be a Messenger of His Love, His Truth, His Committment. I ask Him to ease any pain, surround you and your family with His Presence, and strengthen with the angelic Host of Heaven all hearts that have come to love you and your family and all those who have worked so hard to bring His Message to more people than we shall never know this side of Heaven.
April 3rd, 2006 at 6:23 pm
Dear Zola, You have been a friend of mine for 25 years. Thank you for your many, many faithful years of preaching God’s word in your special way.
I will be looking for you in heaven when I get there.
Continue in God’s grace, love and peace.
April 3rd, 2006 at 6:35 pm
(Sorry to be so windy, but I hit the wrong button before I was finished.)
I believe I am responding to the strength in Mark’s words … Zola and Sandra, you have both taught your sons well! I look forward to that day when there will be enough time. Until then, dearest Zola, good journey to you. The road you are traveling will culminate in a song that lifts my heart (as well as your own music!) that says,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, FOR GIVING TO THE LORD. I AM A LIFE THAT WAS SAVED.
It will take a long, long time to greet those who will share the Lord’s GRACE and MERCY and TRUE LOVE.
I personally know some of the citizens of Heaven … give them my love … they will know that I will be there one day because of the wisdom, gentle ways, and absolute truth that you have taught us. Those awesome words will come from our LORD GOD’s Own Lips, “Well DONE My Good and Faithful Servant and Messenger.”
And we will also know the JOY that will come when He will wipe away our tears because He knows how much you will be missed.
SHALOM – NOT AS THE WORLD GIVES OR KNOWS – BUT SHALOM THAT COMES FROM KNOWING GOD – KNOWING YESHUA – KNOWING ADONAI – KNOWING THE RUACH HA KODESH
I send you my love,

Dear Zola, Thank you so much for your ministry. It has been a tremendous blessing to us. I know that the Lord is saying, “Well done, good and faithful servant.” We continue to pray for you, for healing according to God’s will. We pray for Sandra and your children and the staff. Of course, we will continue to support your ministry. “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for Thou art with me.” Shalom, brother.

Dear Zola:
Thank you for teaching me to have a love for Israel and God’s chosen people. It has blessed me greatly as a Christian. I wish I could have gone on one of your tours to the blessed Holy Land. Perhaps when we all return, you could show me around. Our prayers go out to you and your family.
April 3rd, 2006 at 9:08 pm
Thank you Zola, for the many years of faithful ministry. Our prayers are with you. God’s will be done. Hallelujah!

Dear Zola,
Thank you, dear brother in Christ, for what a blessing you have been to me and my family. Your teachings from the Jewish viewpoint of the New Testament has given me a deeper understanding and appreciation of the Jewishness of our Savior, and a greater love for God’s chosen people. Because of your program I have learned to pray daily I for the peace of Jerusalem. God bless you and yours whatever His will may be.

Dear Zola and family – this morning I was reading in Job chapters 38-42 and thinking on the sovereignty of God. Specifically thinking on 40:8 “Wilt thou also disannul My judgment? wilt thou condemn Me, that thou mayest be righteous?” and 42:2 “I know that Thou canst do every thing and that no thought can be withholden from Thee.” It is hard to understand why the Lord would allow Satan to destroy Job’s family and put on him such sickness, but, ultimately, it was for His glory. Job knew Him better after his experience and, no doubt, loved Him more. I, too, like Guy Marvulli, thought ‘this must be like what the friends of Paul felt on that day they met with him and wept before he left’ (Acts 20:37-38). It seems in my prayers, the Lord is going to heal you. I pray that His Holy Spirit will supply what is lacking in my faith to touch the hem of his garment for you. Read one night of how Jesus had spent the entire night on top of a mountain in communion with His Father and the next day wonderful healings occurred as virtue went forth from Him. I love you Zola. Thank you so much for your faithful ministry, family, and all the staff. Now must watch the internet tv video with you and Sandra. Mercy, this will be difficult.
April 3rd, 2006 at 9:54 pm
Dear Zola,
What a blessing it is to have learned about my Jewish spiritual heritage! And I thank you for teaching us that heritage! So many little details make that heritage so very precious & many times fill in the “pieces of the puzzle”. Your teachings also make me realize that Christians should be eternally grateful to the Jewish people for sharing God’s Word with the world. You always cooked up something that was good to chew on & I always left the table of your teachings with a good taste in my mouth! Whatever happens, Zola, please know how much you are loved & appreciated. May God’s tender mercies & lovingkindness be more real to you now thank ever before; in Jesus precious name I pray, amen.
April 3rd, 2006 at 10:33 pm
Dear Zola and family,
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.” (James 1:17).
Zola is that good gift that the Lord has given us all these years. I thank God for his ministry that has broadcasted the truth of Messiah and will continue to do so.
I’m saddened by the physical trials Zola and his family are enduring. It is not the will of the benevolent God to strike his own with sickness, pain and death. He doesn’t break His own commandment(s). It speaks in the Gospels that the Lord went about healing all of disease and infirmity. Everything good comes from God and sickness isn’t one of them and thus isn’t His will. “And the prayer of the faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up…” (James 5:15). Keep up the faith, it isn’t too late for a miracle!
God bless the Levitt family.
April 4th, 2006 at 12:32 am
My heart and my prayers are with you and your family. Many will continue to be blessed even if you should go before us in the teachings you leave for us all. I would have never seen Jesus in the way I do except for you my dear Jewish brother. I love you dearly and pray God gives you the peace that can only come from Him alone. My love and respect, Debra
April 4th, 2006 at 1:40 am
Dear Zola, Sandra and Family,
I am so sorry to hear about the results. I would like to tell you and anyone else with friends and loved ones that YOU DON’T HAVE TO DIE from these diseases. I had stage 4 cancer, breast, lung and liver, was in a wheel chair, and on oxygen and cured it with 2 prescription medications. I have the bloodwork to prove it. My doctor thought I was crazy until he saw the lab results for himself. There are MANY people who have done this successfully. I pray you have ears to hear. Please research this further by going to http://www.knowthecause.com or watch HLC Healthy Living Channel and CTN for Doug Kaufmann and Know the Cause program. It saved my life. It is not too late Zola! Choose life! We all love you and need you around until Messiah comes! God Bless! Lee
April 4th, 2006 at 3:25 am

Dear Zola:
I answered the call to Jewish evangelism and to become a Teaching Elder soon after watching your show way back in 1995. I started my Bible education with your study program, the Institute for Jewish-Christian Studies and now I am wrapping up my ThD several years later.You may have been the biggest influence in my life…I do not know what to say except thank you and I love you and will miss you terribly.Prayers for your family.

Zola, I have learned so much from the podcasts. I learned of this ministry too late to visit Israel with you so, you’ll have to show me around Jerusalem when I get promoted, too! You are one person that I will be looking to speak to in that day. For these few days to come, I pray that you will be comfortable and at peace. G-d bless you and your family. You have been such a blessing in such a short time for me.
April 4th, 2006 at 4:43 am
Here is an excerpt from Page 56 of the book “Ever Increasing Faith” by Smith Wigglesworth that challenged me as I sought the Lord for his will about my healing from breast cancer 10 years ago:
“When I was a young man I always loved the fellowship of elderly men and was always careful to hear what they had to say. I had a friend, an old Baptist minister who was a wonderful preacher. I spent much of my time with him. One day he came to me and said, ‘my wife is dying.’ I said, ‘Brother Clark, why don’t you believe God? God can raise her up if you will only believe him.’ He asked me to come to his house and I looked for someone to go with me.
I went to a certain rich man who was very jealous for God and spent much money in opening up rescue missions, and I asked him to go with me. He said, ‘Never you mind me. You go yourself, but I don’t take to this kind of business.’ Then I thought of a man who could pray by the hour, Brother Nichols. When he was on his knees he could go round the world three times and come out at the same place. I asked him to go with me and said to him, ‘You’ll have a real chance this time. Keep at it and quit when you’re through.’ (Some go on after they are through.)
Brother Nichols went with me and started praying. He asked the Lord to comfort the husband in his great bereavement and prayed for the orphans and a lot more on this line. I cried, ‘O my God, stop this man.’ But there was no stopping him and he went on praying and there was not a particle of faith in anything he uttered. He did stop at last, and I said, ‘Brother Clark, it’s now your turn to pray’ He started, ‘Lord answer the prayer of my brother and comfort me in this great bereavement and sorrow. Prepare me to face this great trial.’ I cried out, ‘My God, stop this man.’ The whole atmosphere was being charged with unbelief.
I had a glass bottle full of oil and I went up to the women and poured the whole lot on her in the name of Jesus. Suddenly Jesus appeared, standing at the foot of the bed. He smiled and vanished. The woman stood up perfectly healed, and she is a strong woman today [in 1924].
We have a big God. We have a wonderful Jesus. We have a glorious Comforter. God’s canopy is over you and will cover you at all times, preserving you from evil. Under His wings shalt thou trust. The Word of God is living and powerful and in its treasures you will find eternal life. If you dare trust this wonderful Lord, this Lord of life, you will find in Him everything you need. You will find that if you dare to trust Him, He will never fail. ‘The prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the LORD shall raise him up.’ Do you trust Him? He is worthy to be trusted.”
April 4th, 2006 at 6:21 am
Please know that prayers are continuing on your behalf and that you remain in my thoughts. You have blessed me with your teachings so many times and you’ve been a joy to listen to through the years. You’ve taught me things that other teachers don’t have any knowledge of and for that, I thank you!
May the peace, grace and healing hand of God overwhelm you and your family.
You are loved!
April 4th, 2006 at 6:29 am
Dear Zola and family,
I have loved your ministry from the first time I saw it.
I also met you personally at a prophecy conference in Tampa a
few years ago. How blessed I feel to have met you. I pray
for God’s will in your life. If He calls you home soon, I will
miss your presence. But to be absent from the body is to be
present with the Lord – no greater blessing is possible. I
do fervently pray for your physical healing – if the Lord wills.
My prayers are with you and your family.
April 4th, 2006 at 7:54 am
Zola, Sandra, Mark and staff,
We are, indeed, saddened. Through your ministry my husband came to understand his Jewish roots. He had embraced Messiah some years ago, but under your teaching and our Israel tour with you last November he and I have been encouraged in our faith and love for God. You have produced much fruit for the Kingdom, may God richly bless you!
April 4th, 2006 at 8:19 am
It is crushing for us to hear of your illness. I had gotten the news from the web site and told my wife immediately, she and I both wept. We know that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord, but we are selfish and we like you being here with us. You have made the world a better place and even now you are showing us all how to serve our Saviour by continuing until there is no more breath left in your lungs. I hope that I will be as strong when my time comes. I also hope that the Choir will sing as loudly for me as I know that they will for your entrance.
My wife and I have learned a great deal from your ministry and will continue to follow your work until He comes. We are very upset to think that we may never have the chance to meet you before Christ comes. But I can tell you in all honesty, we will seek you out and shake your hand and weep with you over the wonderful blessings that you have been to God’s people.
Zola, I could not have been happier in my walk than I have since I have been learning from you. My wife and I will always remember you and the love that you have shown for our Christ.
Please know that you and Sandra are loved in our eyes.

April 4th, 2006 at 10:59 am
Dear Zola and Family,
As you know Deut.28:15-68 lists the curses of the law. Verse 61 certainly includes cancer,if not specifically mentioned in other verses.
I am not in “denial” that cancer is not in your body, BUT, I certainly deny it’s “right’ To be there, based on Gal. 3:13 “Christ HATH redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us (past tense and on our behalf)
I receive the information of your condition,the same as the “evil report”in Num.13:32.
The 10 spies reported what they saw, ignoring what God had ALREADY said verse 2, that the land was already given to them. Result, that generation died off because of unbelief. Dear Zola,treat this cancer the same way you would, the most wicked temptation to sin, that you can think of. I know you would not let sin reign in your mortal body…for sin shall not have dominion over you (SIN CANNOT TELL YOU WHAT TO DO) Rom 6:12-14. “The thief has come to steal,and to kill,and to destroy..but Jesus has come to give you abundant life” Jn 10:10
Zola, all of our prayers, and quoted scripture cannot overide your will, in this matter, I am convinced that God will allow what you will allow. Stand on the word of God, that declares what Jesus has already done on your behalf. We stand with you “holding up your hands”
May God’s “chesed” prevail.
In His Love, David
April 4th, 2006 at 11:34 am
Hey Zola…
My mom had made me aware of your cancer maybe a month and a half ago. I had been keeping you in my prayers, but today I decided I would check for myself to see how you were doing. I was so suprised to see you condition had escalated so much. Anyway, I just wanted to thank you while I got the chance for the wonderful tour of Israel back in the early Spring of 2002. Not only was this an amazing turning point in my views of the Bible and my relationship with G_D, it was a turning point in me personally. I believe it was that experience that prepared me to meet my husband, Cory, 4 months later. We have been married well over 2 years now, have a 7 mo. baby boy, Elijah, and are growing in G_D amazingly. While I was pregnant, we were able to return to Israel with my mom, dad, and sis. This was my husbands 1st time over there. Of course, it was absolutely wonderful for me to return, but it was great to see my husband experience it for the first time. He can’t wait to go again…and next time we go we want to go on a tour. Yeah, it was a lot of fun over there on our own, but you can only imagine setting the Leach’s out in Israel by themselves. Haha. Cory and I started talking when we got home then when we go again we want to go on your tour. Unfortunately that will probably not be so, but I do know that one day we will ALL walk there together with Yeshua. I can’t wait until then…
Remember me? I am the oldest of Jeff Leach’s daughters…you can remember me as the nicer one. Just kidding…well, maybe not.
My G_D continue to bless you and your family for your wonderful ministry…you have touched more lives that you can imagine.
April 4th, 2006 at 1:03 pm
Dear Zola and family,
How blessed we have been by you, dear Zola. Words can’t describe how we feel right now. We have to admit we feel selfish now-wanting you to stay here on earth with us, but the glorious kingdom to come is yours. What a great servant of the Lord you are-along with all of your family who will continue on for you. We’re still praying for a miracle-but will trust God in all things. Since we can’t give you a hug right now, I hope we can and will in Heaven, our dear, dear teacher! Much love and admiration to a humble, brave servant of the Lord-Blessings and love to the family too!
April 4th, 2006 at 1:18 pm
Dear Zola and Sandra,
Thank you so much for the teaching on Passover that aired here yesterday. It’s amazing how many believers say “we don’t follow tradition,” (It seems that only applies when considering the Jewish holidays)but keep the Christmas and Easter holidays, with all the pagan regalia, without thinking of them as tradition. There is so much to be found in the Jewish History and Festivals that build up the believer’s faith. The more I learn, the more I desire to learn. You have preached pure bible truth, something that is getting harder and harder to find. I thank you for your clear, concise teaching on the Jewish roots of our faith and for standing by Israel at a time when that’s not so popular. As the bumper sticker says, “Wherever I stand, I stand with Israel.”
God Bless You and Keep You!
April 4th, 2006 at 1:33 pm
What words can one say to someone who has taken me to the road leading to Yeshua? Thank you just seems so inadequate for someone who has helped my family to eternal life with Jesus Christ our Savior. Zola, I Love You and God Speed my Friend and Brother. Take your rest in the bosom of Jesus, Well done Zola will be his reply I’m sure.

Dear Zola:
I am still praying and believing that God will heal you. I would like to encourage you to attend the Benny Hinn Good Friday service to be held there in Dallas. I have personally known people who were healed when 20,000 people were in accord praying for their healing and I believe God will do the same for you if you will step out in faith.
May God Bless You and Your Family,

I had tried to e-mail before with hopes to make clear the true wishes of God for His children. I can not understand after seeing and reading about the suffering Christ took in order for us to be well we would ever think we should bare a sickness or disease.
Is 53:4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Matthew 8:16 When the even was come, they brought unto him many that were possessed with devils: and he cast out the spirits with his word, and healed all that were sick: 17 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.
Zola’s cancer failed liver is in Christ. He bore it why does Zola want it?? Zola needs the life of Christ in Him. He needs to eat the flesh and drink the blood of Christ every day until well.
John 6:43 Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. 44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me. 46 Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father. 47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life. 48 I am that bread of life. 49 Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. 52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat? 53 Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. 54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. 55 For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. 56 He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him. 57 As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me. 58 This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever. 59 These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.
Prov 4:20 My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. 21 Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. 22 For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh. 23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life.

Dear Zola,
You are a brilliant scholar and teacher… My birthday is coming in the summer, and I told my husband that the only thing I’m asking for is your study course!
My family and I are keeping you in our prayers and we know that the Lord is with you.

Dearest Zola and family,
My heart is breaking as I read the latest news of your illness, and how short a time is given for you, but I realize our loss is Heaven’s gain. I only wish I were going with you, how I long to be with our Lord, and see all our loved ones who have gone on before. I have followed your ministry for a few years now, I just didn’t know about it sooner, or it would have been much longer, and your programs, Levitt newsletter and website are such a blessing to me and everyone who hears them. As so many have written already, Christ will truly say to you, Welcome Home thou good and faithful servant, enter into thy rest.
Love in Christ,

Dearest Brother Zola,
The Lord G-d does love you very much my friend, though you presently feel alone, he is with you always, even unto the end of the age. Fear not my brother, soon we all will be gathered together in the clouds of Heaven. The Battle of Gog and Magog draws near and is even at the door, then will all Israel be gathered in the Land of our fathers, and none will be left scattered among the Nations. For the Lord G-d will plead with Israel as he did with our fathers in the Wilderness.
Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that it shall no more be said, The Lord liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; But, The Lord liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands wither he had driven them: and I will bring them again into their land that I gave unto their fathers Jeremiah 16:14-15. My friend Zola, while we that believe in Yeshua are gathered in the clouds of Heaven, there will also be a gathering of the children of Israel to prepare for the coming of the Messiah, for they shall weep and mourn, looking after him whom they have pierced. Blessed be the Lord G-d, he is not slack concerning his promises.
Zola my friend, I wish to leave you with these words, no greater love is this, that a man lay down his life for his friends, and you Zola have devoted your life to the cause of Yeshua, you have carried the cross, shared many burdens, and soon you will finish this race and recieve your reward. Blessed is the Lord G-d who has chosen you as his servant, for you truly have been a blessing to many. May your journey to the Third Heaven be the most wonderful experience ever, G-d speed, Shalom, Baruch Ha Ba B’Shem Adonai.

DEAR ZOLA, SANDRA, MARK & STAFF,
THANK YOU FOR BEING SO CONSIDERATE OF YOUR”EXTENDED FAMILY” IN CHRIST, SHARING YOUR LIMITED TIME TO KEEP US INFORMED OF ZOLA’ CONDITION.
WE SO APPRECIATED THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE AND HEAR SANDRA’S HEART FOR YOU AND THE LEVITT MINISTRY SUNDAY, APRIL 2ND ON “SKY ANGEL”. THE OPENESS, TENDERNESS, HONESTY AND CONFIDENCE OF YESHUA EXEMPLIFIED IN BOTH OF YOU AS YOU SHARED,WAS AN INSPIRATION AND FAITH BUILDER.
PRAYING AND TRUSTING FOR THE SWEET COMFORT AND PRESENCE OF OUR LORD TO BE YOURS…MOMENT BY MOMENT.
April 4th, 2006 at 7:50 pm
Zola,
Please read Ezk. 47:12 and Rev. 22:2.
The best “liver rejuvenators” are alpha-lipoic acid and silymarin (from milk thistle).
They have restored cases of hopeless mushroom poisonings. Seek out a CAM (Complementary
Alternative Medicine) specialist MD, DO or even ND. Don’t go only Allopathic(!)
Begin to strengthen your immune system immediately with Noxylane-4 (formerly MGN-3) by Lane Labs. Your immune system is your greatest ally to win.
Astragulus and Schizandra are good for ofsetting Chemo/Rad “effects” and supports liver.
If current treatment is insisted, try “micro-dose”approach ,where sensitivity to v-a-r-i-o-u-s
therapeutic chemo agents is determined first, then dose accordingly, starting low. This approach has been demonstrated in Germany (and elsewhere) as more effective and less damaging
to patient. A good reference book here is “German cancer therapies : natural and conventional medicines that offer hope and healing / Morton Walker c.2003″.
“Modified citrus pectin” (MCP) is a known metastisis inhibitor and Jarrow Formulas puts out one of the best from AOR (Advanced Orthomolecular Research) in Canada. Available everywhere.
A good general book on the CAM perspective on cancer is “The Alternative Medicine Guide to Cancer”;Dr. Burton Goldberg. Get the “thick” edition. Many successes were developed.
By His Stripes we heal

Dear Zola:
Though I am not Jewish, I thank God that you have upheld His word and have consistently reminded everyone that the Lord God will give the Christ “the throne of His father, David, and that He will reign over the house of Jacob forever.” You have encouraged others, Jew and Gentile, to believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, so that believing they would have eternal life in His name.
Your reward will be great in the Kingdom, for you have built with gold, silver and precious stones on the foundation of the Lord Jesus. Your works, more than mine, will endure at the Bema, and you will receive a reward for you have been a good and faithful servant.
Though I have never met you on earth, I hope see you one day shining as sun in the Kingdom of the Father.

Dear Zola, beginning this note with the Word of God
Psalm 118:8 It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man.
I write this to encourage you. Before my salvation I was scared, worried, afraid of dying from recurring Lung Cancer, not sure if I did die , what would happen to me, or my soul.
My friend Beverley gave me an invitation to church . On Nov. 9, 2003 there was an alter call and the Lord called me to come forward, I knew He forgave me of all the wrongs that I have done. I then connected with the Ladies Bible studies on Tuesday nights. Margret Ruplin along with Carol Natiello and Joyce Hietala, all prayed for me.
On January 6, 2004 my life was and is forever changed. I gave a short testimony of how the Lord was giving my husband Dan & me Peace and calmness durning stage IV recurring lung cancer, chemotherapy treatment. Then I went back to my seat to listen to other testimonies and then prayers.
Shortly, Margaret came up and asked me to come forward for a healing with the anointed oil. She proceeded to put the holy oil on my forehead and praying with the Ladies of the ministry of healing. I felt a little unsteady, and tried to plant my feet firmly on the ground, when all of a sudden I was horizontal with the Holy Spirit, a feeling wooshed over me from head to toe, The Lord said, “Do not fear I will show you the Way.” a few minutes later , woosh another feeling from head to toe. The Lord spoke and said, “I have healed you, the cancer is gone!” I gave praise and thanks to the Lord.
I know the Greatest Physician in the World and His name is Jesus Christ.
It is His will to heal
Jeremiah 30:17 “Behold I will bring you health and cure, and I will cure you, and will reveal unto you the abundance of peace and truth.”
I am believing that this testimony will give you hope.
Love your Sister In Christ Jesus.

April 4th, 2006 at 9:26 pm
Dear Bro. Zola,
It breaks my heart to hear you are going through this,but I believe with all my heart that God is Good and is always at work. We always have hope and God never slumbers or sleeps but He is working all things together for good day and night. Like the song says. “God in the day time is still God in the night time .”
I appreciate this ministry so much,you have blessed so many people. I am praying for your complete healing. We still need you in these last days .
April 5th, 2006 at 12:53 am
Zola:
I don’t want you to go. You are One of the most sound, bold, unmoved, learned, kind & patient believers in and representatives of Jesus Christ I have ever seen. It IS better for us that you stay. Everyone knows it is better to be with Christ. But it is so much easier to say than to actually live in the absence of a loved one. I learned this last June when my 22-year-old Neice left us. We KNOW she is with Jesus but her absence from us has left a void. Our relationship with the Lord did not make us numb to grief. I wished it had.
I pray that for Sandra, for your children, for all your loved ones and all of us that you stay.
In Jesus’ Name
April 5th, 2006 at 1:16 am
Our prayers are with you Zola. I just read your latest Zola letter, and boy did you put your cards on the table. Praise the Lord! The time is short for all of us.
I hope to join a personalized tour of the Holy Land with you in the Kingdom!
April 5th, 2006 at 7:24 am
Dear Brother,
I thank God for you, your family and your ministry. God’s continued blessing to you all.
April 5th, 2006 at 12:20 pm
Dear Zola,
I just wanted to let you know that I am praying for a miracle! I have learned so much from you over the past few years. There are so many things that you have brought to my attention that explain why the Bible says, “To the Jew first, and the Gentile”. I understand so much more about the Bible now. I also appreciate your interviews with Dr. Schroeder. While he has created a controversy when I’ve discussed this with my family, for me it has just increased my total awe of the greatness of God. I will continue to pray for your full recovery. Thank you for all you’ve done and all that you continue to do!

Dear Zola,
I was in Jerusalem two weeks ago today and place a prayer in the Western Wall for you. I understand God hears our prayers everywhere and always, however it personally was an added bonus to place a special prayer for your healing in the land that we love so much. I know that the Lord’s will prevails, and he has heard our prayers for your healing. Bless you for the remarkable and courageous manner in which you have handled this latest test. You are an witness, an inspiration and a blessing (and always will be) to the world.
In Christ,

Dear Zola and Family,
My faith in Christ the Lord has only been strengthened by your teachings. Your television ministry is a weekly habit that I do not wish to ever break. You have educated me in my young faith so that I can better understand Israel and her past, present and future. I was raised in a wonderfully Christian home, but I didn’t receive the Gift until my 33rd birthday. For the past two-plus years you have been a tremendous source of inspiration and teaching that will never be supplanted.
My family sends yours our sincerest heartfelt prayers for a miraculous recovery.
God bless you, my brother in Christ.
April 5th, 2006 at 2:32 pm
Dear Brother Zola,
Your music illustrates your interior disposition and your demeanor on camera further testifies to the Holy Spirit dwelling within. You are probably torn, as was Paul, but thankfully God is sovereign.
As a former Roman Catholic, whose faulty doctrine was straightened out by local Messianic Jews during their Passover seder, I thank the Lord for your special uncompromising ministry which has been contaminated by neither arrogance nor the disease of “political correctness”. You evince Truth and Love working in concert.
In June of 1982 I went to Israel on a dig for a month. I never sobbed so hard in my life at any other time. What a state of desecration in modern Jerusalem! Such displays of religion in contradiction to the Scriptures in the Old City! Even the other members of my Christian dig group entered the mosque, having taken off their shoes! But it was also there that the Lord made me bold to share the Gospel. I was never before so liberated to do that. Such opportunities have become the true joys of my life on earth. And you, dear brother, have had so many more than I!
Whether you depart soon or later, you will surely have some reception! I pray that your family will experience the peace that goes ‘way beyond understanding, whenever that time arrives. Please pray that I will be less distracted and much more diligent in serving the Lord, having derived the benefit of your good example.
Sincerely,
Barbara
April 5th, 2006 at 3:22 pm
Today was my Dad’s birthday, and my Mom, brother and I went to “see” his gravesite and sing Happy Birthday to him. After that, I got on line and wanted to check your recent status. I am so sorry, but, I cannot help but cry. I know the tears of sadness are only for those that are left behind, for now. You are such a wonderful, kind teacher, but, we will see you agian. My prayers and family’s prayers are with you and your family.
Thank you, for all you have done donw here….thank you kind teacher….
April 5th, 2006 at 3:23 pm
Dear Zola,
Thank you for your faithfulness in your service for the Lord. I have been a student of yours for the past 8 years and have learned more than any seminary could have taught me. You have, as did the prophets of old, delivered the truths of God’s Word and thank you for not watering it down. The truth is the truth no matter what. My prayer is that the L will continue to support your ministry and wish that we could have met face-to-face. One day on the streets of the New Jerusalem we will.
April 5th, 2006 at 3:28 pm
(Sorry I hit submit by mistakewhile making a correction)
My prayer is that the Lord will keep you here until the rapture because the work you are doing is so needed.
Sincerely,

April 5th, 2006 at 3:44 pm
Dear Zola
Just wanted to send you a note with very very sincere “Thank You’s” for being a great teacher and for being such an inspiration to everyone.
You have such a gift of knowldege and you have always shared your gift with others and I am sure you have brought many many people to know the Lord.
I was having thoughts about you a while back, I guess it was about 5 or 6 months ago. I had been listening to some of your music and felt so much joy & happiness in my heart…… and then I started thinking about life here on earth after Christ’s return, and thought how nice it will be to hear Zola’s music and to just dance with such happiness & peace in our hearts…….and how much I will look forward to getting up and dancing with Zola and all the followers of Jesus at such a happy time and to such wonderful music too. What a celebration it will be.
I just wanted to share this with you because I think its so important to tell someone how they have touched your life and to let you (Zola) know that you did some things really nice for someone.
You are such a kind & gentle person and yet so robust too, I know God is Proud of you and happy with all you have done, I feel your crowns will be many.
I don’t know how much time we have left, because I feel the rapture is really getting close now…but I will keep watching your videos over and over…..I never get tired of them, and always learn more & more from them. ( I’ll probably be watching one when the Rapture happens)
I pray for you Zola, and I pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and last but not least…..I pray…come quickly Lord Jesus
Take care, Zola, and know in your heart that you are loved by so many, who have never even met you………and that’s another gift
Thank You For Everything

Dear Mr. Levitt and Family:
We are at a loss for words to confort you; but our hearts, our thoughts and prayers are with Zola and the Levitt family. We will like to express our gratitude to Mr. Levitt for his work in bringing people to Christ. I am a Christian but my husband is not. My husband is Jewish and he is still resisting the gift of Salvation. I hold dear the promisses of our Lord for the salvation of my husband Larry and wait in faith for that day. Thank you for being a role model to Jewish men. You have made a difference in our lifes and we hope that the Lord will give you a great gift in return for your service.
We do not know you or your family but we feel that we do because of your tv program.
Zola, just know that we love you in the love of Christ and remember that the God we serve is a Just God.
May the Lord and His Holy Spirit be with you during this difficult hour.
Sincerely,
Angelica Traub

Hi Zola – I wanted to send the words to one of my favorite songs. Heard it off and on in the past on Rejoice Radio out of Pensacola, FL. The gentleman who sang it had a low, deep, powerful operatic voice and sang the song with minimal instruments. Haven’t heard it again for several years now. Think the radio station got tired of playing it! The words are beautiful – hope you like it – actually, you’ve probably already know it! Will attempt to copy to this note: Title is Sail to Heaven’s Shore by Steve Green
Words by Phill McHugh/Music by Greg Nelson
Deuteronomy 1:31
Storms may rise on seas unknown
While we journey towards our home
Surely we’ll learn what grace is for
As we sail to heaven’s shore
Send us strength O pilgrim guide
Sin would drown us in its tide
Be close at hand and go before
As we sail to heaven’s shore
Holy Spirit lead us on
Give us courage bring the song
Lord we trust Your Father’s care
Will convey us safely there
Open or seal off every door
As we sail to heaven’s shore
Straighten our course with every prayer
Let heaven’s breezes speed us there
And grant us mercy evermore
As we sail to heaven’s shore
Draw us near O finest Friend
From dawn’s light to evening’s end
Each passing day we love You more
As we sail to heaven’s shore
As we sail to heaven’s shore
Love to Zola, Sandra, family and staff.
April 5th, 2006 at 7:29 pm
Dear Zola,
You are in our prayers. We appreciate your teachings, and teaching material, which we continually use. They have been a big help in our study and understanding of scripture.
Our prayer for you is that God will intervene and give you healing so that you can continue this very important work.
God bless you and your family,

April 5th, 2006 at 8:10 pm
Zola, please don’t go! I know I’m being selfish but I don’t care. Lord, don’t take him away from us. I have so much left to learn. I don’t know what else to say.
April 5th, 2006 at 8:26 pm
Dear Zola,family and Staff:
I am so sad to hear the latest news. It grieves my heart to think you may leave so soon. I have learned so much from you and as a result of what you taught me I was able to be a good witness to a young physician named Levine, who became a believer and married my sister. Your teaching of the gentiles has truly made a difference in the lives of your brethren. I continue to pray for a miracle for you and pray in Jesus name that you will be with us when the Lord comes for His church.
April 5th, 2006 at 10:22 pm
Dear Zola and Sandra:
We have just returned from our March trip to Israel with the “yellow bus”! What an experience~ “Thank you” for showing us the Promise Land and for letting us experience our jewish roots. Seeing Israel for one’s self is beyond words or description. Sandra, Tony and Will did you more than proud, but we missed you! You are in our prayers and we thank God for you both. Looking up for His return. In Him, Dean & Deb Waldrop
April 5th, 2006 at 11:35 pm
Dear Zola and Family.
I belive the Lord will heal you Zola and spare your life, and that the outcome
will be that many people will come to Christ because of the miracle that happend before
their eyes. I will continue to pray and ask the Lord for your miracle to happen.
There are many people who love you and your ministry. Keep fighting, the world needs
your wisdom and truth.
April 6th, 2006 at 1:09 am
My Dear Zola,
I so much wanted to meet you and go with you on a tour to Israel but that was not to be……However, one thing we know we will all be together real soon and sing praises to our Redeemer together.
Thank you for your labor of love in this life…..We will miss you so very much….but your work will go on and we will still have you with us in all your tapes and books and songs and music…..I still need to order several things from you, especially in your music….You have fought a good fight….Thank you for all you have taught us about our Jewish Roots….It is greatly appreciated.
We love you more than we have the words to say.
See you next in our Father’s House.
April 6th, 2006 at 5:07 am
Dear Zola and family,
I surfed the web few weeks ago, and discovered that you were ill. It was a big shock. I saw your programmes in the UK and enjoyed them so much. God has show us also our Jewish roots as Christians and to see your programmes has been such an encouragement. It is the last reformation in the Church before the return of Yeshua, Ben David! You are given us so many JEW-els. Thousands of Thanks.
Your life and ministry has been so precious to many to understand and see more clearly who is our Messiah Yeshua.
We had the privilege to meet last year a precious brother, Yacov Rambsel and he is already gone to glory! You are both precious brothers, no words can express my heart fully.
We know that we are living in the last days, there is a lot of preparation here on earth but also in heaven, so whichever side God wants you, we will to rejoice even with tears in our eyes! We know that you will still be busy! May His shalom be with you. Another soldier in the Lord’s army.

Dear Brother Zola and Family,
Thank you so very much from deep in our hearts for the many years of love you have given to all of us through your teaching, your music and for your obvious love of the Lord Jesus Christ. We have learned much, been encouraged and uplifted, and given the glory to God for it all and thanked Him for you many times! IF the Lord takes you home, know that will be many here sharing the teaching and music you have left to us with everyone we can untill He promotes us too! Our prayers for grace and peace and the Lord’s will are with you all.
In Gratitude and Love,

Dear Zola,
I am thankful for your life, your ministry, especially the music. Proverb 10:21 describes you. The lips of the righteous nourish many. I am one of the many. Thank you so much. God used your 23rd Psalm to make real to me that I shall not want. I pray that he blesses you back with that same promise, that you shall not want for anything you need and he nourish you in a special way today. Love, Ashley Leonard

GOD’s Grace and Peace unto you,
Zola and family and staff and families …
I’m trying to come to grips with this present reality of Zola going home….
It is very, very hard….. thru God, Zola’s ‘Stand for the Jewish People and ISRAEL’
have ‘Deeply’ moved and affected me for years and years,( I believe since 84-85)… I have only Benefited and Grown through all the teachings, and therefor, the lessons in life of both gain and loss…selah, Now that the reality of your going ‘Home’ sinks in…. the width and breadth and deepth and the great human price shown thru your life and ministry, but even more, the truth of what ‘Is going on in the world this very day’,(too many to be spoken of here),…. have profoundly leveled me in the very reality of THE Reality of the God Of ISRAEL and JESUS, …. no human words can describe what I feel and now do ‘Praise in Spirit and Truth’ Our LORD JESUS CHRIST !!! All Glory You Christ Jesus !!!
………… shalom and amen ………..
(And Yes, Zola, we very much will support this ministry until the Lord takes Us home!)

Zola,
God Bless you and your family. We heard about your health through a friend yesterday and could not believe it. Me and Carla often talk of someday being able to go to Israel with you and what a great blessing you have been to us. I have missed our time on the golf course but will always cherish those days. I have not played much the last couple of years (the 4 kids keep us running) but look forward to playing with you again on God’s courses someday. Wonder if he has a handicap system? My mom’s sister was also just diagnosed with lung cancer after having a series of strokes and was given 6 months to a year. She smoked since she was 16 and now is in her 50′s. We have been praying a lot for her and will put you in there now as well. We need two miracles from our Lord. Thanks again Zola and Sandra. Hope to talk to you soon.
Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
God Bless,

Dear brother Zola and Family,
We cried and our hearts ached when we heard this news. If it is the Lord’s will that you go home to be with Him, we will miss you so terribly! We pray for your healing, we pray for your comfort, peace, and joy in the Lord Jesus. May the Lord keep you in the palm of His mighty and gentle hand.
Love, In Christ,

Dear Zola,
I was really blessed this morning by your show about the Passover. I learned so much. I especially like the shows that you do on sight in Israel, and that I get so see so much footage of Israel on you show. Zola, my family just wants to say from the bottom of our hearts, we love you, and are continually praying for you.
Shalom,
Kenneth
April 6th, 2006 at 1:25 pm
Zola and Family,
Thank you for caring enough about us to keep telling us that God’s word is without fail – even when we didn’t want to listen. As God loves Israel, He loves us. Your teachings have removed me from my Replacement dementia. Again thank you and I will miss you.
I join with you and your wonderful family in bowing to the Almighty with “Your will be done.” Amein and Amein. El Elyon is always faithful.
Soon in Jerusalem!

Zola & Sandra, we were blessed to be with you this past New Year at the Holy Land Experience. Zola, you looked so well after the bypass surgery that we were shocked by the news of cancer. And so we join the hugh terrestrial chorus entreating our Lord for His perfect will for you.
I hear that Lucifer was Minister of Music before the Fall. Don’t know if that position has been filled or not!
I’m praying a sterling reference for you if that is what the Lord has in mind. A Southern Baptist minister, who shall remain nameless – he knows who he is, once told me that there wouldn’t really be a trumpet sounding when Jesus returns. He said that is symbolic. I told him that I believe in symbols(cymbals), great big clashing ones in the Heavenly orchestra! I’d be OK with you leading the music for the Return, the Appearing and all the awesome events that follow!
We love you. Thank you and yours for turning our hearts to the Homeland! We are ETERNALLY grateful!
G-d is in control. Let’s Roll! Love, Jim & Carolyn
April 6th, 2006 at 2:38 pm
My Dear Brother Zola,
I want you to know what a blessing you have been to me, my husband, and our grown children. Because of you, we have such a deep love for Israel! We now understand the significance of our Jewish roots and we are passing this wonderful teaching on to the second and third generations of our family. You have been a brave soldier in the army of the Lord and we will begin to pray immediately for whoever you have chosen to succeed you in your ministry. May they stand as strong and steadfast as you have!
When I think of your leaving, I am heart-broken and joyful at the same time. I guess that is just the way it is for all of us who, while living on this earth, have our citizenship in heaven.
God bless you, brother, and until the Lord comes for us we will continue to sha’alu shalom Yerushalayim.
The Vincent Family

Dear Zola and family,
I was watching your video online “A Personal Note from Zola” with tearful eyes. Hearing you pour out your heart on where you believe we are at in Bible prophecy and the urgency of doing our best and most focused work NOW really rang true with me. I believe men like you were born for such a time as this. I can only imagine how many of our brothers and sisters of the Jewish faith, now saved by the blood of Jesus have come to know the Messiah Jesus Christ through your ministry, not to mention the people of every other tongue, tribe, and race. You have opened my eyes over the years to the Jewishness of our Christian faith and deepened my love for the Jewish people and the land of Israel. Most of all, you have helped me see our Savior in a whole new light. I think the most profound experience of getting to know the real Jesus of the Bible took place while visiting Israel. I know you have traveled to that precious land so many times, but to try to explain to someone who has not been is to try to achieve the impossible. It must be experienced first hand. Zola, I so look forward to that day that is coming very soon when there will be no more sickness, no more sadness, no more tears, no more sorrow, when the night hour passes and we awake in that heavenly city whose builder and architect is God. I want to thank you for your ministry and the work you have done for the Lord, and continue to do for the Lord. No one could ask for a better way to leave this life on Earth than by pressing forward with your hand to the plow working for the Lord as you are. You are a testimony to a life devoted to honoring God. God bless you and your family Zola.
April 6th, 2006 at 10:10 pm
I SEND MY GRATITUDE FOR ALL YOU’VE TAUGHT ME. I PRAY FOR A MIRACULOUS HEALING. I’M WANTING TO SEE YOU FOR MANY YEARS TO COME. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT YOU, SANDRA, MARK AND YOUR CLOSE FRIENDS ARE FEELING. WE HAVE A GREAT GOD WHO NEVER LEAVES US ALONE! MAY HE GIVE YOU ALL A BIG HUG FROM ME.
April 6th, 2006 at 10:18 pm
Hi Zola:
I love singing to the Lord. I have a terrible voice but fortunately Jesus listens to the heart. I rewrite words to songs I like and sing them to Him during prayer. I want to share this one with you because I really believe it will bless you, especially at this time. The music for this is ‘I’ll be seeing you’, it was Jack Benny’s theme song. I’m sure you are familiar with it.
I’ll be seeing You
Dear Jesus when this life is ended
when goals for me that You intended
have come true
I’ll be You
when all the trials of life are finished
pain and suffering have diminished
there we’ll be You and me
I’ll be seeing You
in all Your spendor and Your glory
the happy ending to my story
loving You forever more
I’ll hear You in the rapture shout
and when the shout is through
I’ll be looking at my God
and I’ll be seeing YOU.
shalom
April 6th, 2006 at 10:52 pm

I am a Catholic Christian who is keeping you and all of your loved ones very much in my prayers. Whatever is the Lord’s will is wonderful. Shalom.

Zola, I’m just sad in my heart, but I know that God knows what is best. Your body of work is remarkable,your voice will be greatly missed. God used you for his glory and to open the eyes of the blind, Thank you Man of God for staying true to your calling.I’ll see you in God’s kingdom.
April 7th, 2006 at 10:02 am
Dear Zola,
I appreciate you and have learned so much about the prophetic. Thank you and I am decreeing for
God’s kingdom to come and His will be done in your life. He is truly the lifter of our head. Praying also for Sandra and Mark.
Love, in Him.
April 7th, 2006 at 11:25 am
When G-d calls..safe and peaceful journey, Zola. My heart goes with you.

April 7th, 2006 at 1:20 pm
Thank you, Zola!
Thank you so much for your work over the years, and for opening our eyes to the wonderful Jewishness of Jesus. Thank you for bringing me back to my first True Love again.
I don’t think I would have ever developed such an intense love for Israel if it weren’t for your work.
Thank you again.
Best regards!
April 7th, 2006 at 4:37 pm
You are in my prayers, for there is no one who can replace you. No other ministry has taught on the subjects you have, providing accurate information on Israel and producing intelligent programs on various topics with guests such as Gerald Schroeder. For years my dream has been to see Israel on one of your tours, because no one could be a better guide. It never would be the same with anyone else, so I guess I’ll have to wait until the kingdom and hope that you will be showing it to those of us who didn’t make it there in this life! May God bless you for the work you have done, creating a love for Israel in the hearts of his people. My prayer is that you will be healed, because God knows how much you are needed and how greatly you would be missed.
April 7th, 2006 at 4:44 pm
Dear Zola,
I have just started to watch your shows, and was so happy to see someone else so passionate about the end times and prophesy. I just wanted to share a story with you that happened when I was 23 years old (I’m 47 now). My son, Gary had always been prone to pneumonia, and being very poor at the time I couldn’t afford medical care when he started to get sick. I did the only thing I knew I could, I prayed hard for hours on end for Jesus to heal my son. In the middle of the night, I felt a light on in my bedroom, and since both children slept in the room with me I was wondering who turned the lights on. When I opened my eyes, our Lord and Savior Jesus was standing in front of me. At first I thought I was asleep, so I closed my eyes and opened them again, and He was still standing there. I could not see His face it was in shadow, but I knew it was Him. He revealed to my mind that my prayers had been answered, and then spread His arms open, which my son was sleeping right next to Him. I immediately fell asleep, and when I woke up in the morning my son was perfectly fine. Till this day I thank Jesus for this most precious gift. Gary was 3 yrs old then, he is now 26 and doesn’t get sick often, but the doctors insist he just grew out of it, but I know the truth, and I wanted to share it with you. You are a wonderful man, very blessed with your deep love of Jerusalem and for all people. May God kept you in the palm of His hands always, and if I don’t get to meet you in this lifetime, I would be honored to meet you in the next. God Bless you and your family.
In Christ,
Debbie
April 7th, 2006 at 6:29 pm
Dear Zola and family,
It is ALWAYS God’s will to heal. It is NOT God’s will to strike Zola with a sickness that can lead to his death. God is not some schizophrenic despot up there targeting some for healing and killing others with sickness and disease. He cannot give something to someone He Himself doesn’t have. He doesn’t have sickness, so He doesn’t give it to people or will on people. He does not go against His own commandment (thou shalt not kill).
All good emanates from Him and there is no darkness or evil within Him. We are no longer subjected to the curse of the Law. There is an enemy out there that is the perpetrator of evil attacks of sickness and disease, not God. If it was God’s will to selectively choose to let some of his flock suffer and die and others live through healing, then He would be a respecter of persons and His Word would then be nullified, but God cannot lie, thus He is no respecter of persons. If it was God’s will, then why fight the disease? If it’s His will, there’s no point in seeking treatments because it would do no good. Yeshua gave us life and life more abundantly. Yeshua gave His life so we are healed. God is not the God of the dead, but the God of the living. It is the will of the person and not God, which ultimately determines their fate. If the person no longer has a will to live, then they won’t. In Zola’s personal letter in the latest issue of the Levitt Letter, he speaks of his “upcoming death” and his peace about it. If he believes he will see the Lord soon, then he will. If he believes he can be and is healed, then he will be.
God bless and shalom.
April 7th, 2006 at 7:55 pm
Dear Zola: You are the only teacher on tv who explains so much regarding the Jewishness of our Faith. You are so annointed and interesting, I appreciate you so much. My prayer regarding your healing is that we need you here on earth to teach and exhort the Family of Christ. I pray that God will leave you here with us a while longer and I believe He is more than able to wipe that out of your body —- God Bless you Zola and your family.
April 7th, 2006 at 8:59 pm
Praying fervently for you Brother Zola. You are a blessing from The Lord Jesus Christ, and I thank Him for the Good Work He has done in you — and will continue to do, (double underline ‘will continue to do’!). Love you Forever in Jesus, and looking forward to meeting you on New Jerusalem, Ray Walley
April 7th, 2006 at 9:53 pm
Wow! I have a lot of bad breaks in life and it seems like Zola leaving us is just another one. Sometimes all I ever had was the old rugged cross. I often wondered when it comes my turn to go (baring the Lord’s return) when and how it will happen, and if I will handle it with as much wisdom and faith as Zola is handling it. I think there is no greater test of our faith than how we handle our end. Christians never say “goodbye” just “see you later”. See you later Zola. You will be loved, cherished, and missed. May Jesus take you out in sweet peace. God bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
April 7th, 2006 at 10:34 pm
Dear Zola,
God bless you. I don’t know what else to say. I’m only a freshman in college and I have no church to go to. Just lately, when I see your tv show, I stop everything to watch it and drink in every word. I’m so spiritually hungry and often afraid of the world around me. Thank you for comforting my quivering heart as I prepare to face it with Jesus at my side. Thank you for letting God work through you! I wish I could have known you longer. I want to see you in heaven and embrace you. You are an amazing warrior! God give you peace, brother. There will be many jewels in your crown, you have been a blessing to many… including me. Thank you, brother! I love you! And God surely loves you a thousand times more than that. Wow, that’s a lot.
God bless you. God bless you.
Love in Christ Jesus our Savior,
Michelle
April 8th, 2006 at 12:41 am
Thank you Zola and Sandra for your dedication to this ministry. Mary
and I have been richly blessed by your teaching and the two tours we
went with you (2000 and 2003). It has been a shock to hear of this
test that the Lord is putting you through. Zola, you and I are the same
age and it seems to me that the Lord needs to leave you here for awhile
more as we need your teaching and encouragement. We pray for you daily,
sometimes several times a day.
Again, thank you for allowing the Lord to use you in such a wondeful way
and we hope He’ll allow a few more years of that service. God bless you!
April 8th, 2006 at 9:37 am
It just is not fair, why Zola? I just hate this.
April 8th, 2006 at 10:34 am
Dear Zola
I had a note placed in the wailling wall in Israel I hope it helps. Phil
April 8th, 2006 at 1:05 pm
Dear Zola and Sandra,
I hope you can feel the prayers going forth without ceasing. God continues to use you and your staff to accomplish “His purposes” and you have been faithful in all things.
That people like myself, and my family, have been blessed, educated, and awakened to live expectantly for His soon return, is the result of your life of service; a ministry of blessing! And in spite of strong opposition, as mentioned by the apostle Paul in his letters, you have persevered, in His name, taking no credit for yourselves! His grace arrives at the point of our greatest need, in exactly the right porportions. His timing and will are perfect for each of us.
May your hearts be comforted; may His peace surround you. He will surely continue to be our unchanging God, Who is able to sustain us in all circumstances!
See you one day soon!
April 8th, 2006 at 3:15 pm
LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU, LOVE YOU!!!
April 8th, 2006 at 3:22 pm
Zola, we are praying for you as often as the Spirit leads, for your complete healing and recovery, and for God’s peace. Also, thank you for your service to our Lord.
April 8th, 2006 at 3:48 pm
Dearest Zola and Sandra
My prayers are with you daily. I am a cancer survivor of 12 years from oral squamous cell carcinoma. I certainly know there is a much more beautiful life waiting for us believers in Heaven. Oh to see the face of our savior Jesus! I am praying for your peace and comfort daily. I am also praying for a miracle. I know that they exist, first hand! I will also pray for the peace of Jerusalem. May God bless you Zola and Sandra, good and faithful servants.
April 8th, 2006 at 4:18 pm
Dear Zola,
I know I won’t sound as sweet and wonderful as most people do about your illness, but I just can’t understand why someone like you would be needed real soon in Heaven when you do so much to bring others to JESUS. I thank you for all you have done to be used by JESUS, but I wish you could be here longer and do some more. I just learned I have Jewish ancestry and I’m excited about that. My family and I have only seen you once, in Ohio, and it would have been so great to know you personally, but for now, I’ll keep praying for you and for us that HE will come soon for all of us to be together. We love you and your wife. Love, Joy Winters
April 8th, 2006 at 6:08 pm
May the peace of God surround you and your family.You are truly loved.
April 8th, 2006 at 10:04 pm
Dearest Zola…I remember in my twenties, as a young mother, ironing to stay awake..waiting for you to come on tv at 1:00 am! I watched every week and listened as the word of God seemed to jump off the screen and fill my cup to overflowing. One thing that meant to so much to me, (especially at that time in my life) was the fact that you never begged for money. You even went so far as to discourage widows and the poor from sending you money. I had little money then, and it was such a blessing to hear and not feel guilty for not having anything to send. This also ministered to me of your great faith that God would keep the ministry going. Many of the beggars are now gone, but your ministy has not ceased. I also had the oppprtunity to meet you and participate in a Seder when you came to Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis. I remember sitting in the balcony, waiting for you to be introduced, and feeling like I did as a teenager when the Beatles were about to sing! What I am trying to say is, that your message stirred deeply in my soul…it created an excitement for the word of God, and gave me a real sense of pride in my own Jewish roots (my great grandmother was Jewish) I thank you for sharing your great gift of teaching, and can not tell you how much I have learned from you! Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart!
I am chosing to be optomistic about your health in the days to come! God can do anything, and I will certainly pray for your healing! God bless you and multiply blessings to you, as you have blessed us all! With much love, Tonya McDonald, Memphis Tennessee
April 9th, 2006 at 3:51 am
Dear Zola,
Messiah Yah’shua healed people by touching them and in another situation He made mud to heal somebody, it is my prayer for you that He will touch you and the mud you find below here in the form of medications and therapies.
From a friend here in Holland I received an email about your illness, my girlfriend has been diagnosed with cancer also, now about a year ago, the doctors gave her a life expectancy of between 7 to 10 months, we are now already 4 months over the 10 months and her situation has enormously improved, she was diagnosed with a braintumor, one of the worst kind. The last 7 or 8 months the cancer has been shrinking and shrinking and it appears on the last MRI scan that the tumor has been reduced 50 % .
This thanks to the self-medication, regular hospital treatments like radiation therapy and chemo-therapy, but most by the therapies she received in the clinic of the web-adress here below, in Cologne.
The New Casttle Desease virus, and the Dendritic cell-therapy were the therapies with the best results.
http://www.cologne-model.com/english/html/therapien/onkologie.htm
These therapies have been working very well and the results were astounding.
Self medication against cancer we found on Jerry Golden’s web-page .
http://www.thegoldenreport.com/asp/jerrysnewsmanager/anmviewer.asp?a=821&z=2
Another important webpage is
http://www.parole.nl/english/index.html
The Flor Essence tea, Lew White in his book Fossilized Customs writes about it, and I would highly recommend it to you to read also the book about Flor Essence tea, “Feeling good and getting better”, because then you get a real good picture of what the tea does against cancer.
This variety of medications and therapies should be working for you to overcome the cancer, But you can make a start with the Flor Essence tea and reading the book about it. The New Caslle Desease virus is an affordable treatment and with the help of the Messiah it will work. I wish you well.
In His service Toon

What a blessing, Zola Levitt, you are to so many of us! I thank the Lord for you. I pray for you to be comfortable now. I pray that if it can be the Lord’s will, you will be healed physically to continue as His servant here for some time more. May you and your family know the Lord’s presence in a very real way and experience His peace.
KJV 2 Corinthians 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.

April 9th, 2006 at 12:20 pm
Zola, my dear Zola and your sweet wife, Sandra………..All I can think to say that is really important is that you are both so very loved, and ever-deeply remembered in my heart and MOST important of all hearts, you are remembered every second in the heart of Yeshua/Jesus….I know He will carry you both. I read some of your very first books back in 1978 while I was still in college at UTA….I have had a long serious illness that G-d gives me back my health for some periods….and even my Jewish doctor over all these years believes I am alive today because of God’s “miracle” interventions and prayers. So, I won’t give up praying for you….only in heaven will you know how you have blessed my life…..I love you. Chrissie Joy Kelly
April 9th, 2006 at 12:25 pm
As Christian Zionists, we have watched you for years and loved your teachings. Your sensitive interviews of so many increased our knowledge and love for Israel, the land, and its people, God’s Chosen. Your ministry is and has been a great blessing. If you days appointed are almost come, then may God usher you home with the greatest ease and tenderness. We shall look forward to seeing you in His Kingdom, where we can share so many wonderful times and insights. We have always wanted to see you in person or meet you. Shalom our dear friend.
April 9th, 2006 at 3:38 pm
Dear Zola, my beloved friend and TV pastor, I look forward to sharing a meal with you in the presence of the King. I write with tears in my eyes, not of sadensss and yes there is that, but of joy for you. I will miss your loving kindness terribly. Shalom shalom. To our coming meal; to Life! Stan Foster

ZOLA,ZOLA ,ZOLA, [Psalm 32:1-2;] [JEREMIAH 31:34] love to you, and all
see you soon, here or there ,your friend
April 9th, 2006 at 9:26 pm
Zola and family,
My heart was both heavy and rejoicing tonight as I read your update. Heavy because we will miss you here on Earth and your teachings, but rejoicing because you will soon be with Jesus, our Messiah! I’ll look for you on the other side when I arrive! My prayers are with you as you finish your race on Earth. Sandra and sons, my prayers are with you as you watch Zola grow weaker and as he prepares to meet Jesus. May God encourage you now.
April 9th, 2006 at 11:57 pm
Hi Zola:
It’s 9:47 here in San Francisco and I am about to turn in for the night. I’ve been talking to the Lord about you. I thanked Him for your wonderful teaching and music. I expressed my unhappiness that you might be leaving us. I received your ‘Levitt Letter’ yesterday and as usual read it cover to cover right away. I hope you are right. If God takes you home it really could be a ‘sign of the times’ meaning the rapture is ‘at hand’. I don’t believe He would remove the prophecy teachers as long as we still needed them. Wouldn’t it be marvelous if we all raptured together in the next few weeks? And with that wonderful thought I am going to go to sleep. I’m praying for you Bro. You’ve been such an inspiration to me. Oh by the way, I found an interesting painting of Jesus on the web that I believe will thrill you to pieces. Its location is http://religion-cults.com/art/king.htm. My love and prayers to you, Sandra, your family and partners.
Shalom
April 10th, 2006 at 12:36 am
Zola,
Brother, I thank God for you and your ministry and someday we will worship together before Y’shua the King! Thank you so much for taking the good news to the people and in this time of need let the joy of the Lord be your stregth.
In Christ and with you on the way,
Travis
April 10th, 2006 at 1:01 am
Zola, you are our teacher, tour guide, and friend. My wife Peggy Lee brought me to Christ 25 years ago. In March 2005 her thyroid cancer spread to her liver and spine. While we asked for her full measure of days, we did not pray for a healing (who are we to tell G-d what to do) rather we prayed that she, and I and our sons live the life that G-d would want for his children. On October 3, 2005 my last words to her, now are also my words to you: “Go softly, for now Jesus has his arm around you” You have done well my friend. I will say kadish for you. Michael Treitman April 9,2006
April 10th, 2006 at 8:08 am
Dear Levitt Family (including your beloved staff),
My heart goes out to you all during this difficult but very sacred time.
Nearly two years ago, I watched as my own precious husband graduated to our Father’s house. Cancer had spread to his liver as well. Words cannot describe the peace, joy, sadness, and overwhelming comfort from the Lord.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you all for your many years of faithful, inspiring service to the Lord. You have blessed my heart immensely, and the hearts of many others as well.
But greater than our appreciation will be the words of our Master: “Well done, Zola, my good and faithful servant…”
May all of you rest gently in the hollow of God’s hand.
Through the love of our Messiah,
Ellen Kissinger
April 10th, 2006 at 9:34 am
God’s highest will be done! He says “With His stripes, we are/were healed.” On the Other Hand, He also says, “Precious in the eyes of the Lord is the death of His saints.”
I vote for the first one, now that we have everyone’s attention! He’s still in the healing business.
OTOH, Heaven’s going to be so–heavenly! \o/
Big hugs and blessings from an alumna of September 1996 Israel-Petra Tour to Zola and all who love him as we wait and see what our wonderful Lord’s going to do. We know He loves us so much. Here’s a site about that, to uplift us all: http://www.sunnytees.com/loveletter.html

Dear Zola,
Thank you so much for teaching us. Thank you so much for your faithfulness to our Messiah and His country.
I always hoped to meet you in Israel, but I’m looking forward to shaking your hand in the New Jerusalem and to thank you in person for all you mean to me. You inspire me to have uncomplicated, simple trust in God’s Word, and love and loyalty to Him and His people and His land.
Thank you so much for teaching me to have a Jewish heart!
The Lord bless you and keep you. The Lord makes His face shine upon you, and give you peace.
Your friend,
Chris Tanner

Hello Zola and Sandra:
I am sorry to learn of your situation and I am deeply moved, however I also recognize my own selfishness of wanting you to stay.
About 17 years ago (maybe 20?) the Lord used you to plant a seed in my heart. You eloquently spoke on Samson, basically as the man who “never was” (you spoke of him not being quite the role model for potential of God’s full power).
That seed blossomed in my life. Not quite over night because of my stubborness, but none-the-less it blossomed. I’ve often thought of that day, your image, dress and voice. I learned so much then and frequently thought of your message throught-out the years. Your message was incredible!
Admittedly, I, like Samson, enjoyed sneaking off to the Philistine camp at that time. I even had (still do) long hair and did some power lifting (now the long hair is more a cultural thing as a Native American).
Now much wiser, grayer and closer to God, I too recently have been to “the edge.” I was diagnosed in November 2005 with two brain tumors and given limited time by three highly specialized medical teams. Since then I have had numerous tests and I am presently recovering from brain surgery. What a ride! (But I still much prefer to receive my preparation from reading about it than experincing it.) In an upside down, kookie kind of way, I love the experience for the additional closeness (Of God’s Love) it brought to me.
God has ALWAYS known about my and your situation, no surpizes there. I as a human was somewhat surprised but certainly not God. I have learneded first hand to further seperate the physical from the spiritual. FLesh and bones (i.e. so-called reality) only lasts 70, 80, 90 maybe 100 years, the spirit is eternal (the real and powerful reality).
I have been given some more time, yes. But I recognize God’s miracle cure is not a permanent cure, be it one year or twenty, I will return to the edge. This time with no fear and a clearer view of God’s love. I recognize passing is the transistion from the physical to the spiritual. What is known as death to flesh and bones is simply a transitional process that everone has to go through. A transistional process.
Love and prayers to you and your family.

Dearest brother in Christ JESUS, we are all with you and are praying day and night for a healing. But as you know if it dosnt come it is the fathers will that you be with him. We all often get selfish and want folks with us forever but the father is the real boss, and if his wish is to have you who are we to say differantly. I know that to die is gain for us who call ourselves christians although we never know what it is like until it is our time. Just let me leave you with these words, JESUS loves you very much. He has your best interest in mind dont allow the advesary to come in and spoil your trip to heaven. My wish is that we all go togeather in the rapture but your reward just may come quicker. I look forward to meeting you one day either here or there or in the air.May the peace of GOD make your trip if it is to be a smooth and glorious one. We love you ZOLA.

There is no doubt in from the testimonies that the Original Ambrotose would pull him out of this sitution. I urge you to call my cell at (removed). There have been thousands of testimonies from people on their death bed with cancer coming back to health. You have no idea how powerful this natural plant vitamin is. The childeren with aides in Africa have been leaving the hospitals after taking the products. It works with the bodies immune system. Please hear me out. Please call me as soon as possible.

Dear Zola, family and staff: Many years ago while channel searching I came across this TV program with a bearded jewish looking man, wearing a long robe, sandels and carrying a Bible. How peculiar I thought, but my Lord kept drawing me back. It wasn’t long when I became a regular viewer and couldn’t wait till your next series would come out. My husband and I frequently watch your program together. We will continue to support this ministry because we believe in the important work of teaching about Israel, past and present, our Jewish roots and prophesy. How saddened we are to say good bye (but not for long) to such a familiar friend. With our sincere love and thanks and prayers. Jack and Clare Toddy
April 10th, 2006 at 4:03 pm
Dear Zola and family,I just want to thank you for your service to the Lord Jesus.I always wanted to meet you in person here but I can wait until we meet in the Kingdom.I have really enjoyed your programs.Thanks again Zola,you are an inspriration to all believers in Christ Jesus. Your friend in Christ,Tony Weeks .
April 10th, 2006 at 5:02 pm
With heartfelt sympathy, I am truly sorry about all you and your family are going through. Death is the open door to life and Jesus waits there for us, just on the other side. Praise His name! Thank you, Zola for all you have done! Blessings! Claudia Robinon, your sister in the Lord, Fayetteville, Georgia, USA.

Dear Zola and family and staff..
I just now read the latest news and I am still stunned at the “suddeness” of this situation. Oh how I wish we had been able to go with you to the Holy Land. More than anything I wanted to go with you and Sandra, but was unable to make it happen. But, to think of walking the streets of Jerusalem with you AND Jesus some day warms my heart. I have learned more from your teaching than any one else and I have enjoyed each and every one of your programs. Thank you so much for your wonderful example and your dedication to God. You have blessed my family in so many ways and I look forward to that wonderful reunion day when we begin eternity together with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and all of His children. We will continue to support your ministry as long as we are here. Thank you again Zola and please know that Diane and Paul are praying for you and Sandra. We Love you! Sincerely in His love, Diane and Paul Tinkle

Dearest Zola & Staff,
We’re experiencing Jehovah’s healing power at this very minute with my mother and her cancer diagnosis a month ago. After surgery and subsequent treatment, she seems to be cancer free.
We’re praying that you as well will soon be healed, but, if not, your soon-to-be new home will not be afflicted with the maladies of this world. Thank you for your testimony and your unashamed preaching of the Gospel of Christ, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
Shalom,
Larry & Lindy
April 10th, 2006 at 7:09 pm
Zola,
My prayers for healing are with you and I look forward to eventually meeting you in person, together with our Lord.
Shalom.

Dear Fellow Christians:
As I see from the postings, lots of us are praying for Zola’s healing. I would like to suggest a coming together in prayer, a “national day of prayer” if you will- for Zola. I will be praying and fasting on Monday, April 17, 2006 specifically for God to heal Zola. Please join with me in prayer on Monday. May God heal and bless you, Zola!

Hi Mr. Levitt and Mrs. Levitt (Zola and Sandra),
What a blessing you both have been to us! I am praying for healing for you! I know that the Lord loves you so much and He may want you with Him sooner than later, but I am going to pray and ask if we can have you a little while longer. I only recently discovered your television show and your ministry. I learn so much from you and your light is so bright…it is a powerful beacon. I hope to be able to see you “healed” and filming many more years of your ministry. We love you and ask that the Lord bless and keep you always.
In His Love,
Pat Sherard

It is with mixed emotions I write this note. I pray in some small way it will be an encouragement to you, your family and staff. I have watched your TV program off and on since 1978. Due to work relocation, I lost contact with your programs. Then recently found you again a couple of years ago. You have been so faithful and consistent with all your teaching these many years. Only our Lord knows how many people have been and continue to be blessed by you with your Biblically sound teaching on Israel,prophecy and your music. Your material was used many times in our Sunday School and Bible studies. Our Lord is definitely coming soon.
Now deeply saddened because you are fighting a life threatening illness. Of course, like many who have written,I was stunned to read about your physical condition.I too am selfish because I want you to stay with us…completely(divinely)healed so you can continue with the ministry our Lord has given you. I continually pray with others asking Him to extend your life. I am a recent cancer survivor and it is only by His
Grace and intercessory prayer of many that I have been granted an extension of life. So I want to encourage you to not give up the fight to live.
Whatever our Lord decides, we know as a Christian, you will live forever. Some of us may be seeing you sooner than later. Either way, our final destination is to be with Jesus and all the saints that have gone before us. 2 Cor. 4:7-18/5:1-9
Because He Lives…we can face tomorrow.
“Shalom! Pray for the Peace of Jerusalem”
In His Great Love,

Shalom Zola, family, and friends,
My family would like to thank all of you for your dedicated work, to the end. We have learned so much from you, your ministry, and those who are fortunate enough to be guests on your programs. You have indeed been faithful to the end, and I know that Yeshua is going to have a huge smile on His face as He says to you, “Well done my good and faithful servant!”
We continue to pray for all of you, that you see clearly what Gods’ Will is, and that you be blessed and comforted greatly.
My family has had some sporadic contact with your prayer support group, and you have always been very kind and compassionate. You bring Scripture into the conversation, which is always appropriate and comforting. It feels as though we are losing another family member.
“All things work together for the good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purpose.”
You are still fighting the good fight, unto the end! That is so excellent! And we are running with you, praying as we go.
Though you have many wonderful friends and family, my family will be here if anyone wants, needs, or feels burdened to just reach out. Please feel free to call us: Mark and Christina Turner. (phone and email removed)
We will be with you soon, we pray! We are listening for the Shofar of the Lord! Until then, “Shaalu shalom Yerushalayim, pray for the peace of Jerusalem.”
In Yeshuas’ Service,
Ariel, Christina, and Mark Turner
April 11th, 2006 at 6:37 am
We love you so much Zola, and we will the two running up to meet you in the New Heaven and Earth when we arrive. May Yeshua give you peace that passes all understanding. How can we begin to thank you for your ministry. You have dedicated your life to teaching and for that we are so very grateful. and May this Passover be your best Passover ever……
Go in His Peace. Love Hal and Gayle Bell
(See you real soon)
April 11th, 2006 at 11:32 am
It’s me again . I just wanted to pass on a message from some people I know who had met Zola years ago. They are Manus Castle and his wife Ethel.They have no computer and wanted me to pass on to Zola how sorry they were to hear of his problems and that they are praying for him and his family.I’m still praying for him and I have the Levitts on three groups prayer groups lists.God bless and keep you all and everyone else who has written in with health problems.
April 11th, 2006 at 11:33 am
There will be a time we will meet in person, but until that day let me express to you my gratitude

Dear Brother Zola,
I would just like for you to know that you are a blessing to me and of my family who have gone home to be with the Lord. My mother hoped to one day go with you to Israel but the Lord called her. I hope someday to go to Israel.
Blessing to you and your family. I want you to know I am agreeing and praying with others that God will do a great miracal for you and your family. I just want to say thank you for giving to the Lord.
God Bless You and your family,

Dear Zola and ministry staff,
Zola’s teachings are a great blessing to me and to the world.
I pray for a miracle, but more important than the teacher is the teachings. I pray that the work of the Zola Levitt Ministry continues.
May God bless your work now and in the future.
Shalom,
Bill Kalles
PS: I just found out that my name has Greek and perhaps Hebrew origins. Kalles is a greek adjective meaning beautiful and Koph Lamed Samech is a Hebrew verb meaning something has beauty. I always had a love for the Jewish people and now I found I might be one.
April 11th, 2006 at 8:25 pm
Dear Zola,
My husband and I weep for your recovery….Having known of you through your tv show for years but just over the past year had a stirring from our Lord to support your ministry as best we can….selfish as it may be, we want you to live so “we” can have the opportunity to spend time with you and Sandra together in this lifetime too. I strongly agree with the message that Becky Subrahmanyam left on April 3rd, 2006. This seems just like the enemy to attack with full force due to the light you are shining so brightly regarding evil. I will continue to pray for “your” miracle.
With Loving care,
Mary Sanders
April 11th, 2006 at 8:27 pm
Dear Zola, what a blessing you have been to us over the years. We have loved your teaching both on TV and more recently on the internet. It was with great sadness that we learned of your illness. We have prayed for you and your family every morning. Having that blessed hope of the Lord returning and of that great reunion with those we love it certainly something to look forward to and with each passing o f those we hold dear it just makes it sweeter. We will continue to pray for you, your ministry and your family.
In Yeshua’s name,
Ray and Peggy Reed

Dear Zola,
I was in the process of linking your site to mine when I discovered your present status of health. I had cancer for many years. I didn’t know it, because I also had a pituitary problem which was blamed for all of my trouble. When the cancer was finally discovered and removed, it was still in stage one. It was a miracle that such a large tumor had not grown beyond stage one in all those years. I thank God for that. Going through the cancer, one prepares his heart for heaven, but sometimes God offers a reprieve. Remember a prophet was sent to tell Hezekiah to get his house in order. With petition to God, he was granted many more years. So I don’t pretend to know God’s timing or the reasons behind those who are healed and those he takes. I just want to say, I’ll pray that God will intervene in your situation. Whether it’s healing or taking you home, I am confident that God will be glorified in your situation. May God’s Spirit comfort you. You have meant so much to Don and me. Your ministry has been unique. You are truly a guardian of Israel. Your love for Israel has been conveyed to thousands of people around the world. Now they must pick up the mantle and go on with your work. Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem. We love you even though we have never met you personally. The Lord bless thee, and keep thee; The Lord make his face shine upon thee; and be gracious unto thee; The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee; and give thee peace. And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel; and I will bless them.
Love,
Julie and Don McCarty

Dear Zola:
I am so sorry that you are so ill. Your programs have been such a blessing to me. I pray that God will be very close to you and Sandra during this very sad and difficult time. My prayer is with you.
In Christian love, Marjorie Peoples
April 11th, 2006 at 10:41 pm
We want you to know how much we have appreciated your ministry. You have taught us a love of our Jewish roots through Christ Jesus (although we are not of full Jewish descent). It has given us a richer picture of our Lord and his Word that has deepened our appreciation of our Christian heritage. Your ministry is needed for the Gentile Christian as well as for a stepping stone to the Jewish people that don’t know Jesus as the Messiah and are missed by the Jewish-Christian organizations.
You are in our prayers and thoughts. As others have said, we are selfish and want you with us if the Lord wills! We love you and thank you for your dear ministry.
Love,
Joe & Belinda Brown
April 11th, 2006 at 11:42 pm
G-d bless you Zola, Sandra, and family. You know this is NOT G-d’s best. G-d does not will anyone to die of disease and sickness. Yeshua came to give LIFE more abundantly. The devil comes to KILL, steal, and DESTROY. Do NOT give the devil victory. You were healed and made whole 2000 years ago on the cross. G-d is the great physican. Yes the Bible says it is appointed unto man to die once, BUT would it not be better to die WHOLE?
G-d healed me years ago of what doctors believed to be lung cancer. My prayer was “LET G-D be true, and EVERYMAN A LIAR.”
“I AM JEHOVAH RAFA, THE G-D YOUR HEALER.”
Zola, in the name of Yeshua you were healed and made whole.
April 12th, 2006 at 10:12 am
Dear Zola,
I was so shocked and saddened to hear of the latest news of your health. I want to try to express how much you and your ministry has meant to me over the years. The Levitt Letter is the one piece of precious literature that I actually devour when it is received. You have stood firm for truth and the Lord and I thank you and love you for that. Your TV programs have been so informative and beautifully filmed when in Israel. I have been to Israel four times and love to see it portrayed as the beautiful country that it is. And what can I say about the music, except that I have all of the CD’s to my knowledge.
In closing, I want to assure you that I will continue to support this ministry on a monthly basis as it continues in the same quality of truth. God Bless you and each one of your staff. I am praying for you.
In Him, Sharri
April 12th, 2006 at 11:15 am
Zola, Thank You, and my families prayers are with your family during this time.

As my family gets ready to celebrate Passover, I can’t help but remeber that it was Zola who taught us about this wonderful Feast of Our Lord. Years ago I was “channel surfing” when I came across a program Zola was hosting on the Passover. I was intrigued and soon became a regular viewer. I eventually ordered material on the Seven Feasts and now I pass that teaching on to others regularly.
My wife and I consider ourselves fortunate to have been able to meet Zola personally when he taught at a church in Metairie, Louisiana. He is every bit as interesting, funny and engaging in person as he is on the broadcasts.
While I realize the prognosis may not be that good, our prayers for Zola are still for a speedy and complete recovery – and for the peace of Jerusalem.
April 12th, 2006 at 7:30 pm
Dearest Zola & family, We have watched your program for so many years & feel so close to you. My Mom is putting up a big battle against bone marrow cancer @ 82 yrs old so I know that it isn’t easy. Your programs have been such a blessing for both of us. We are seeking the Lord Jesus Christ daily, in prayer, for your healing. We plead the Blood of Jesus on your behalf. This is a battle that we are in. We need you Zola – now – more than ever. It is because of you that we pray daily for the peace of Jerusalem. Is it any wonder that the evil one is trying to get rid of you? I thank G-d for you Zola. We love you!!! Barbara King
April 12th, 2006 at 7:59 pm
Dear Zola and Family,
I can empathize with where you are. My husband was diagnosed with lung cancer in March 2005 with a tumor in his left lung and died on April 4, 2006. He also had smoked for too many years but had quit five years ago. With difficulty, he completed radiation and chemo in August 2005 but tests in January ’06 revealed numerous tumors in both lungs. Repeated chemo in March resulted in him being hospitalized for three weeks from the side effects. Just as he was recovering, a pulmonary embolism took him quickly. He too was spared the painful end of the disease that he dreaded so much though he was not able to be at home as we had planned. He was ready to meet the Lord. His funeral service was a celebration of his life and God’s Amazing Grace held in our church sanctuary. His life was a blessing and testimony. I know that God has a plan for me and our children and grandchildren as we learn to live without his presence. It is painful but God is faithful. God be with you all and, Zola, look up Bob Meadows when you get home. I’ll see you both there in God’s time. May your ministry flourish as others carry the torch.
April 12th, 2006 at 9:57 pm
Zola,
God bless you as you keep on, keeping on. So many people, Jew and Gentile alike love you, and are earnestly lifting you up before the Throne of Grace daily. God loves you, and you and your ministry have truly been a blessing to me, my family and countless others.
Shalom,
Kenneth

I had a teacher earlier in my life who made a very big difference for me. I was so grateful to her and wanted to do something for her. Her response to me was “Pass it on. . .” She too, was suffering physically at that time.
Another teacher I had who had helped me get sober from alcohol,lay dying of liver failure in l984. He whispered to me “see ‘ya later” and smiled. His life had also been a testimony for many people. He knew our separation was only temporary and that our spirits were joined through Christ.
You, sir, have been another gift from Yeshua in my life. It is with deep gratitude that I thank Him for you, your life and your gifts. To the best of my abilities I will continue to support your ministry, pass it on, and. . .prescious Zola, I too, will see you later. May your physical body be surrounded by ministering angels as your spirit enters the Kingdom and may your family and friends be comforted knowing that we all will be together soon. With love in Christ Jesus. Kay Humble
April 12th, 2006 at 10:47 pm

I pray to the Lord that He will heal you. There are so many people that need to hear you say, pray for the peace of Jerusalem.
May the Lord Yeshua, be with you always!

Tonight I enjoyed Passover with you Zola, by virtue of the tape you made for us “The Miracle of Passover.” I found myself praying that you were getting to partake of the miracle too at this time. I began to think of all the blessings that you have enriched my life with since I have been gathered into your net: “The POWER New Testament”, “From Time Immemorial”, John Parson’s Hebrew4Christians website, Walid Shoebat, Ibraham, and Zack, Nehemiah Gordon, Dr. Schroeder…all the views of Israel for those of us that can’t go… my grafted-in decal… I am a grateful friend and I thank you for sharing all this so generously.
April 13th, 2006 at 6:30 am
Dear Zola – I found a cross reference to a beautiful verse I had been wanting to send you, but could not remember where it was located. Started reading Isaiah 46:4 and backed up a verse and there was the cross reference to Deuteronomy 32:11 “As an eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young, spreadeth abroad her wings, taketh them, beareth them on her wings: so the LORD alone did lead him, and there was no strange god with him. He made him to ride on the high places of the earth…” Would make a beautiful song don’t you think? Maybe it was a song, all of Deuteronomy 32, see verse 44. Guess the prior chapter was a song, too! May the LORD give you a song in the night and praises in the day. With love in Him.
April 13th, 2006 at 12:04 pm
Dear Dr. Levitt,
How clearly I remember the day I read “The Miracle of Passover”. It was the second most important day of my life. The first being the day I was born again. Not only did you show me our Hebraic Roots but eventually you instilled a love for Israel that has only grown deeper over the years since my first trip to Israel with you in 1988. Our prayers are with you and your family.
Blessings to all,
Sherry and Jim Ferriell
April 13th, 2006 at 1:39 pm
Dear Zola, I am reminded of what David said of his child, While there is life there is hope. I believe this too. By HIS stripes we were healed. I am praying that for you. You have helped me so much by your teachings. I have passed your teachings on in video form to my children. You are loved. Shirley
April 13th, 2006 at 3:26 pm
Dear Zola and family. I have heard about a local Dr. here in So. California on our Christian radio station KKLA. His name is Dr. Tong and you can visit his site at http://www.drtong.com . He has had some amazing success stories of healing cancer and the liver, you know if the liver is in the right enviroment, it can heal itself and regenerate. Please, if you feel led to use this alternative, although he is a MD, method, please visit his website. It is very interesting and captivating.
Thank you for your wisdom.
April 13th, 2006 at 4:10 pm
Dear Zola,
You have been instrumental in my walk with the Lord. Your books and shows have deepened my relationship more than anything else. I’ve been a Christian since 1975 and have been growing under your teaching ever since. You will have a wonderful crown to throw at Yeshua’s feet! May the Lord bless you richly and give you easy passage if it is His will for you to go now. Though what the Church will do without you, I do not know! Maybe it won’t be long before we will all be going home! Love in Yeshua, Marquita
April 13th, 2006 at 4:28 pm
Dear Brother Zola, Thank you for imparting your love for the Chosen People and Israel, to the believers. Your life has been so rich and full and you have been and continue to be, used mightily of the Lord. It is a joy to watch your steadfast faith grow even stronger during your time of illness. We know the Lord can heal you, on the spot, if He chooses. We serve a mighty God. You are a blessing to us and we are praying for you and your family. We love you. Laurie and Bob Ps. 119: 111, 112…Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart. (You are a living example of that!) My heart is set on keeping your decrees to the very end. AMEN!
April 13th, 2006 at 6:42 pm
You will be so greatly missed here. However, I think of the overwhelming joy and glory you will experience……..Oh! to be in His Wondrous Presence….I joy in the knowledge that we are in the last of the last days so that we no longer will have to endure separation from loved ones……….no longer endure pain and suffering. I believe it won’t be that long before we are all in His Glorious Presence……..You are a great blessing to the Body…………
April 13th, 2006 at 7:57 pm
I have enjoyed your teachings for years. I rush home after Wednesday Night Prayer meeting to watch your program. If I could reach up and grab a miracle, I would give it to you. May God provide you with “enough” for each day.
April 13th, 2006 at 7:30 pm
Zola,
I loved your show “He is Risen.” I watched it this morning before going to work. It was a true blessing.
My family’s and Church’s prayers are with you, your family and your ministry. We enjoy your ministry, and your show, are are truly blessed by them. We enjoyed meeting your wife on the show a few weeks ago. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
In Jesus Name,
Kenneth
April 13th, 2006 at 9:03 pm
You are so very loved….SO very loved. Jesus, our precious LORD and ONLY Savior also loves you more than we could ever love you. You have worked so very hard for Him. You have honored Him in life and He is now honoring you. We do, however, firmly believe in Jesus’ ever-present healing power and prayers continue for you to be completely healed on this side of Glory and restored completely to divine health. “Cancer” is but a name….BUT THERE IS A NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES…JESUS!….and He still heals, Brother. You have taught us all so very much about our LORD and you are continueing to teach us about Him in this trial by fire in your own life. You are an ever-faithful friend of our LORD and an ever-faithful servant of The Most High God. Thank you and I love you.

Dear Zola, My father introduced myself and the family to your show. He was able to travel to Israel with your 2004 fall tour. Needless to say he is still talking about it and my mother, brother,husband,son, and nieces watch you right along with dad. Thank you for your ministry. We have been so blessed to find your show and soak up all the teaching you provide. We pray for the peace of jerusalem. We pray in Jesus’ name for you and your family.

Dear Beloved Zola, You will never ever know how much you have blessed me. Many Sunday afternoons I listened to your tv program and was so inspired and so touched by you, I would just feel a joy when I saw your face, your beloved blessed face beard and all, Lord how I loved that face. I never say never, that is the Lord’s calling. I do say that I love you and will continue to pray for you through my tears and happiness for you right now I just don’t know whether to laugh or cry for you, I just know that I love you and If and when you go, may you go gently into his presense my beloved friend and know that you have touched many souls, jews and gentiles Thank You

Dear Zola, I cannot believe you are leaving us when we need what you say & believe so badly. Of course, if the Lord calls you, what an honor. I have many tapes, VCR’s & have just ordered more. I will miss your program. You have so many great people on your show. May your program continue even if you are in heaven with the Lord. Thank you for your years of service, & for giving us so much. Thanks for the wonderful views of Israel. How I would have loved to go with your tour to Israel. Thank you for all your work. I know it wasn’t work, especially when it’s for the Lord. We will all miss you, but not as much as your dear wife, & family. Thanks again for giving us the glimpses of the Holy Land and of our Lord’s teaching. I shall be praying for you. Would that I had your skill. Thanks again. Carol

We’re just learning of this news but we pray that the spirit and love given by this ministry be returned a 100-fold and the teachings and awareness of the WORD and The LAND bought to life through Zola (HIS awesome vessel) continue blessing G-D’s people all over the world for years to come.
We say, TO G-D BE THE GLORY FOR THE THINGS HE HAS DONE!
Shalom
