WEEKLY Arrows from Zion 12/6/2017 Jerusalem Eternal Capital issue

Priority Prayer Focus Dec 6, 2017

Today at 1 PM Eastern Standard Time - about 8 PM Israel time - U.S. President Donald Trump will do what numerous presidents before him were intimidated, cajoled and talked out of doing. Trump will officially recognize the capital of Israel is Jerusalem. This is a powerful spiritual advance not only for Israel, but also for the United States. As such we must set ourselves to pray about the backlash from the enemies of God.

Please pray according to the world of the Lord to Isaiah (54:17):
No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in condemnation you shall judge. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me,” says the Lord.

Let God arise and His enemies be scattered from before us.



Arrows from Zion
Strategically Aimed for the Lord’s Harvest in Israel

Eddie Santoro writes that sin, like cancer has spread throughout the earth, but "You are the light of the world!" That is the Good News that God is redeeming mankind from the bad news of our infected humanity. "We need to go forth each day with a heart burning to pour His life and light upon the unsaved. We are to shine forth in front of the lost. We are to make a connection with them in love and at some point and in some way let them hear that it is the love of Yeshua that they are encountering. There is no higher calling than to be the 'light of the world'. "

Read Eddie's encouragement to step forth with boldness to the unsaved and God will bring the increase inside the Weekly Summary attachment   . Also he writes: "I received the results of an MRI that I underwent last week and my brain and throat are healthy!  By His stripes I was healed"(Isaiah 53:5) and this affliction shall not return a second time. (Nahum 1:9) As always, we thank you for your love and support. Keep praying! The best is yet to come."

From Israel Pochtar of the Ashdod congregation Beit Hallel, great reports on two conferences - a women's conference with a ministry team from Gateway Church and a men's conference, both receiving praise from the attendees blessed by the experience. (About 30 unbelievers attended the men's conference and had a genuine encounter with God.)  Read several testimonies inside the Weekly Summary attachment from the two conferences that will touch you. Also get the update on the building renovations which are ongoing.  This is good soil to plant seed in by donating to their ministry. You can find donation information for all the ministries featured here inside the Weekly Summary.

As in the theme of Eddie Santoro's message about being the light of the world wherever we go,  the Heart of God ministry of Carolyn and Richard Hyde are also devoted followers of the same principle to be Yeshua's light wherever they go with whomever the meet. In this monthly prayer letter they share several encounters with religious Jews as they travel through Israel - happy encounters we might add. Please read them inside the Weekly Summary attachment.  Plus other points of interest including their travel plans among the nations.

There is nothing new on the Hyde's case with the Interior Ministry trying to kick Carolyn out of the country, but a sobering development with a friend who was recently deported.  To understand this situation of the believers in Israel better, please read the commentary by Daniel Juster in the Teaching Articles section inside the subscription only Attached DOCX Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries

Revive Israel has just passed a Facebook milestone of 20,000 followers - read more inside the Weekly Summary. Also there is a short teaching on "Foundation and Sacrifice" - "For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ."

Asher Intrater has a video about the 7 Appointed Times of the Bible and an article that is truly timely called Equal and Opposite Reaction | Newton's third law of physics is that to every "action" there is an EQUAL AND OPPOSITE "reaction." It seems to me that the same is true in the spiritual realm. To the degree that we push away the forces of evil and darkness, there is an equal and opposite reaction against us. Spiritual advance is accompanied by spiritual opposition.

Maoz Israel writes  about the 70th year since the United Nations General Assembly voted in favor of creation of a State for the Jewish People in the Land of Israel. "Today, many claim that Israel has no right to exist—despite Resolution 181, and several other instances giving legal legitimacy to a home for the Jewish people in this land. Yes, there's an increasing battle raging against Jerusalem, and that means Yeshua's return is approaching. That's why your prayers are so vital—for Israel, and for Maoz—as we labor for Israel's salvation." See Maoz prayer points inside the Weekly Summary attachment         

Also from Maoz Israel Report:  Helping to Build Israel's Messianic Community
   Helping Ministries | Makor Ha'Tikvah (Source of Hope) Messianic school, Katzir (Harvest) youth camps, Yeshua Israel Ministries and Beit HaYeshua (House of Salvation) are just four of the 17 different ministries we partner with and support in Israel.

In the far north of Israel, Kerem-El congregation, a daughter congregation to the Mt Carmel congregation, is ministering to their people with Life Groups that meet mid-week between Shabbats.  This framework makes "time to talk, discuss, pray, eat, and look deeper into God's word together" and of course to get to know each other better in a more intimate, informal setting. But that's not all because they are also doing something really exciting, and that is their Parents & Teachers Seminar on Explaining Sexuality to Children & Teenagers. Kids today are bombarded with sexual messages from an early age - what parent or teacher doesn't need help with subject?

Read more about their Young Adults Group and the congregational Prayer and Worship night - plus their prayer points inside the Weekly Summary attachment              

Blessed to have a new ministry letter from Ronit Bender - one of the Kerem-El congregants - and also another one who is devoted to being the light of Yeshua wherever she goes in Israel. Read her short testimony of encounters with three women in her area that she has been reaching out to with the love of Yeshua inside the Weekly Summary attachment.

Just a few of the articles this week from KehilaNews.com

Christian ministry from Canada raises flags to commemorate Israel's creation | by Cliff Keller | On November 29th at kibbutz Beit Zera, during an event commemorating the 70th anniversary of the adoption of UN resolution 181 recommending the creation of an independent Jewish State, Dean Bye, International Director of Return Ministries in Canada, led one of several tours of a former boarding school at Kibbutz Beit Zera.

"We Three Kings of Orient Are" | Donna Diorio | Donna writes, "How appropriate that on the recent "Giving Tuesday" I awoke thinking about why the first century believers banded together, pooling their resources so everyone would have enough to live on as they were witnesses of the faith of Yeshua..."

Teaching Articles 


I have lifted some of the excellent commentary that Daniel Juster shares on his Facebook page. This focus is about the political situation in Israel and the religious stranglehold that the Ultra-Orthodox are exercising over which Jews get to be citizens. I thought it would help many to understand the religious persecution of the faith in Israel. It all starts with "Voting for Benjamin Netanyahu and Likud" with an excellent follow up  on the narrowing down of Israeli immigration.  Juster comments on many issues and the ensuing debates afterwards are always quite lively!

Voting for Benjamin Netanyahu and Likkud | Well, now I want to change directions from speaking about President Trump and to speak about the situation in Israel. Before the last election, we had in my mind an ideal coalition government. It included conservative and moderate parties, most noteworthy was the conservative nationalist Orthodox party of Naftali Bennet (in the coalition now) and Yesh Atid of Yair Lapid. The great mark of this coalition was the exclusion of the Ultra Orthodox.
