Investing in Israel: A Testament of Faith and Resilience

As Christian Women for Israel, we are constantly searching for ways to stand with Israel—not just in prayer, but through practical acts of support. Investing in Israel is one such way to show solidarity with its people, strengthening an economy that continues to thrive against all odds. Jonathan Medved, founder and CEO of OurCrowd, recently shared insightful perspectives on the unique opportunities emerging for investors in Israel during this pivotal time.

Medved highlights how Israel’s resilience, even amid conflict, is nothing short of miraculous. “Despite the war, venture investment in Israel has increased 32 percent year on year—a growth rate that leads the world,” he notes. This statistic is remarkable considering the toll of over a year of war, constant rocket barrages, and other challenges that would have crippled most economies.

The promise of Israel’s economic resurgence is tied not only to its world-class tech sector but also to its ability to remain steadfast in adversity. With the possibility of increased Middle Eastern peace and the continuation of the Abraham Accords under renewed U.S. leadership, Medved anticipates “a vast wave of joint technology and infrastructure projects” that could spark an investment renaissance.

Why This Matters for Modern-Day Esthers
As women who value God’s promises to Israel, the opportunity to invest in the nation’s future aligns with our mission. Supporting Israel economically isn’t merely about finances—it’s about being part of the fulfillment of biblical prophecy. The Bible reminds us, “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse” (Genesis 12:3). By uplifting Israel’s economy, we stand as modern-day Esthers, helping to secure a brighter, more prosperous future for the Jewish people.

However, investing requires wisdom and stewardship. While the potential for Israel’s economy to flourish is significant, every financial decision should be made thoughtfully.

A Disclaimer and a Prayerful Decision
We are not financial advisors, and we strongly recommend consulting with your financial advisor before making any investment decisions. It is vital to align your actions with both sound advice and God’s guidance.

In this season of thanksgiving and renewal, let us prayerfully consider the opportunities before us to support Israel’s remarkable resilience. Investing in Israel is more than a financial move—it is an act of faith and hope.
