Priority Prayer Focus Nov 23, 2016
It is the day before Thanksgiving in the United States - a day where women across the nation are busy making special dishes for their family get-togethers. That is also how I will spend the rest of this day and remembering the wonderful Thanksgiving family gatherings of my youth filled with aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents and family friends. It is a blessing to be an American. My dad's family arrived here in 1638 when our forefather Edward arrived in Virginia from England in 1638. We have generations here in this land and I am thankful for that heritage.
How much more is the emotional investment of heritage by the People of the Book in the Promised Land? Today I am thankful to God who has restored the Jewish people from exile to the Land of Israel. From reading Isaiah thirty five years ago, I understood that if God's promises to the Jewish people were faithful, then His promises to me would be faithful too. I give my thanks to the faithfulness of God for His promises which I witness every week in this prayer summary. God bless the United States of America, and God bless the people of Israel whom He has set apart for great blessings and a joyful destiny. Through it all, God is faithful.

Joel Jelski gives an exciting report of his
time in a Middle Eastern nation meeting with former Muslim, now Christians and
hearing about what God has been up to - like the 8000 Sunni
Muslim and Yazidi refugees from Iraq and Syria who had given their life to
Yeshua and had been baptized in the last 5 years alone. Joel writes, "It's easy to think that
tens of thousands, if not more, have come to know Yeshua in the last 5 years.
This is unprecedented growth of the kingdom of God in a region once so closed
to it. I'm filled with hope today more than ever that the Middle East is
rapidly changing, in ways you will not hear in the media." That is call
for great rejoicing! To know more, please read inside the attached DOCX Weekly
Summary There is also a report on their trip to Cypus
for a conference with the Teens.
It seems like it has been a major year of
transition for many, including the Carmel congregation of David Davis, with
Dani Sayeg now Senior pastor. They
write, "... we are seeing the fruit of many years of labor as the Lord
continues to bring in His harvest. Many have been coming to faith in Yeshua
(Jesus), both native-born Israelis, as well as Russian-speaking immigrants, and
even Holocaust survivors, through our various evangelistic outreaches. These
include our humanitarian food and clothing programs, dinner outreaches,
evangelistic teams going to homeless drug addicts and prostitutes, bus tour
outreaches, internet video projects, and our weekly Shabbat meetings where the
presence of the Lord can be experienced powerfully by unbelievers who visit the
congregation." Read more specifics
and get contact information inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary.
You will especially love the report from the
HaCarmel Video Outreaches, their last one reaching over 3.5 million people
including some 700,000 Hebrew-speaking Israelis. The next video described inside
the attached DOCX Weekly Summary sounds like it was met with great response from Israelis on the street.
It is now in editing and will hopefully be released in a matter of weeks -
please be praying for it and read more about it inside the Weekly Summary where
you can also find specific prayer points requests by the congregation for all
of their outreaches.
From Revive Israel is a
teaching article from Asher Intrater Timing of
the Rapture and Dan Juster End Time General Consensus. Also a video teaching The Holy Spirit Anointing by Asher that you do not want to miss on how
the same anointing that was on the prophets to
write the scriptures is on us to read and understand the scriptures. Also worship leader Tal Haroni of the Revive Israel Team shares her
experience at the Global Gathering Jerusalem .
From our friend in the Haifa region, Ronit Bender, "My time on the streets of Tel Aviv is over, at least for now. It has been an intense season, heart breaking at times.... Israel needs to get saved and there is much work. Please pray for me, as I seek the Lord for the new direction in this new season for my life. There are many needs, and many options, but only His direction I will follow. I want to express my appreciate for your prayers -- not only now, but for the past 11 years since Tom and I returned. Without them I doubt I would be here to continue. Also, for those that support me financially - THANK YOU SO MUCH!"

While in Jerusalem for the ICEJ conference,
Ronit had a "chance" encounter with a rather famous religious Jewish
advocate for the Temple Mount. It was an
unexpected encountered that was very encouraging and if you want to know more,
then you must open the
attached DOCX Weekly Summary
to read about it and see the picture. I
know this, it doesn't take a prophet of God to see when the Lord's anointing is
resting upon someone - anyone God shows can see it - and clearly He was showing
it on Ronit that day at the Wall.
Howard and Randi Bass prepare
for a stateside visit with family, something they have not done for a decade.
Pray for a blessed trip filled with good things for all. Also when they return,
Howard is going for a delicate hand surgery. Please pray for that as well. In his report inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary Howard catches us up on the
ministry to their young people entering IDF service, the teens, a Rawandan
refugee who has been among them about to go to bible school in Texas, and many
other things going on in this busy Negev congregation. Howard wrote a post following the U.S. Presidential election. I was also
asked to do a short video about the one new man.
Guy Cohen of the Akko
congregation writes a sort encouragement on our Father's Love and gives the
congregational prayer requests regarding their children's after school program
- the good, the challenging and the needs. See it inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary
Brian Slater of the Abundant Bread of
Salvation in Netanya is really excited about an outreach they were able to do
for the elderly recently and they have a new video clip, of a special Orthopedic Shoe
Outreach, featuring the world
renowned music of Lev Shelo, a group with a heart for the G-d of Israel. They have also extended their outreach efforts
helping a local Bible-based drug and alcohol rehabilitation center every month
with $250 U.S. dollars worth of food products to the dozens of addicted and
homeless that they take in off the streets.
Brian writes, "Please continue to pray for the refreshing of souls
and give like you've never given before, so that we can continue to practically
and spiritually provide for the growing needs of our community here in
Israel. The time is now and the time is
short! Please lift our team up in your
daily prayers."

Shlomy Abramov reports that his wife Miriam's hernia surgery went well but had to be readmitted after unusual swelling occurred. She was released again later that day but asks prayers for pain management and the recovery period which is about 6 weeks at least. It is key because any lifting or strains during the healing period could lead to new hernias in the future. If any in the area could help out during the recovery period, they would love to hear from you.
