Poisoned Waters Arrows from Zion 6/4/2020

Poisoned Waters

Iran tried to poison Israel's water

by Maoz Israel Ministries

Concerning Security | The news media isn’t sharing many details, but this past week Iran is said to have attempted to poison Israel’s population by hacking Israel’s water system to increase the amount of chlorine in it. Authorities say the attack revealed a weak spot in Israel’s security and that the hack should have been successful. They don’t know why it didn’t work but will be taking steps to increase security.
    Thank You, Father, for Your protection over Your people.
    We thank You for the abundant waters we have seen this year and ask for continued rains this coming winter.
    Whatever went wrong, we thank You for confusing the efforts of the enemy.
    We ask that future attacks from Iran would be exposed before they can even come into play.
    Hide Israel’s spies and informants from discovery.

Praying the Headlines
This week with rage riots creating horrific chaos in the United States, I was so relieved to hear the prayer of Asher Intrater for America (at the 57-min mark) this past Tuesday and for the vision and prayer of Australian prophet John Hemans, pastor of Open Heaven Church in Sidney, Australia who shaved a vision he had of the battle over America, and praying for us. Both of them are aware that the USA is a critical nation to God. I thank them and all who are in the nations praying for the precarious state of the USA right now - even in relation to our alliance with Israel. - Donna

I wrote a personal Facebook post and now want to expand that post in this article.

“An amazing statement by Jack Brewer who was a star on the Minnesota Vikings on the recent terrible death. He says that the problem is primarily a spiritual one, that racism is a Satanic spiritual thing that has to be dealt with spiritually. He says that identity politics has greatly worsened the situation and that identifying whites as inherently evil or racist or blacks as inferior is a spiritual disease and a huge Satanic problem. So, what about a mass movement of prayer and reconciliation, repentance, and forgiveness. This is not a prayer as part of a  superficial cover-up. Let us pray that evil will be rooted out. That racism would be destroyed. That evil actors in the police forces would be rooted out. That the evil responding anarchists like Antifa would be thwarted. Let’s pray first of all that the Gospel will go forth and bring the depth of repentance and reconciliation that is needed. This cannot happen by mere human efforts. We need black churches and white churches and mixed-race churches to come together, to pray, march, witness, etc. O for the Church to rise up.”

I want to expand this post with a few comments. The central issue to me is that the issues are approached apart from a biblical world view. That world view can influence the responses and approaches of people who are not followers of Jesus. The biblical world view tells us that all are created in the image of God. That includes white policemen, the good ones and the criminals, and black criminals and black non-criminals. It tells us that all are deeply sinful, depraved in heart and that civilization is sometimes a mere veneer. That without regeneration and the influence in society from the regenerated, people will seek to dominate others and exercise power to their benefit and at their expense.  Sin will lead to racism, ethno-centricity, sadism, hedonism, misogyny. This is why it becomes the work of the Body of the Messiah to bring the prophetic voice into the situation, movements of justice, and reconciliation based on the equal worth of all people. If one particular racial or ethnic group is more unjustly treated, the focus of the prophetic will be to redress that injustice. In the case of the black community, political leaders have practiced neglect (they don’t vote for me), policies that have destroyed the black family, allowed white racists in the police force, created an education system that does not prepare the poor black children to overcome poverty. We have not spent sufficient policing to destroy the drug problem and end the cycles of violence. The lack of the commitment of the Church to these problems and their non-involvement is a root cause issue and shows a need for deep repentance and reconciliation. Now that the Church has left this vacuum, along come those who are anti-biblical in world view and who kill and destroy according to the desire of Satan.

Some want to say that the rioters are spontaneously rioting due to their frustration. This may be true of a few. But why would they destroy minority-owned businesses? We need to understand that in all probability these riots were long-planned, and the planners were just looking for the opportunity; the end of the lockdown for COVID 19 and an occasion to launch the riots.

If this is diligently dealt with by the FBI, I think we will find the following:
    Anti-biblical and anti-free enterprise anarchists and socialists marching under the banner of Antifa and Black Lives Matter. Sadly, only the Gospel and right kind of free enterprise can lift the poor black community.
    Anti-White blacks who have bought into the identity politics that teaches hatred and that the white people are all guilty, inherently evil, \and deserve to be treated with violence and disdain.  Guess what? Whites are also in the image of God and are also deserving of being treated with dignity as much as blacks and Hispanics. All must treat each other as James says, as in the image of God and deserving of mutual reverence. The teaching of hatred is totally opposed to God.
    White supremacists have also entered the mix to keep the pot boiling.  They desire a civil war.

The organized rioters want to burn down the very businesses in the neighborhoods that are most needed to raise up the poor in the communities where they are established. The anarchists include groups that really should be labeled as domestic terrorists. The white supremacists also include those who should be labeled as domestic terrorists.

In addition, the media has fanned these flames. By claiming that President Trump is a racist (he is not, he is bombastic), and by claiming that those who support him are racists, homophobes, trans-fobes, and more they have fanned the flames of division and fostered conditions that lead to riots. The President’s rhetoric has not helped but by falsely intensifying and magnifying the accusations that media has really been irresponsible. On the right and left it is full speed ahead into the abyss. The media should be putting a lid on the boiling pot. Instead, they have been stoking the fire.

It is time for those who can lead to lead a movement of love, justice, and reconciliation and to address the real injustices with real solutions. We see such people as the football star quoted above, as the descendants of the family of Martin Luther King. There are such voices among blacks and whites, and may they come to lead.  And also, let’s see the justice department go after the domestic terrorists of the left and the right.

One more thing. We have spent trillions on COVID 19. We can spend a few billion to rebuild the businesses destroyed by the terrorists and anarchists. Let give this money in grant form, not loans.  Let’s rebuild these neighborhoods.

Arrows from Zion
Summarized from the Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests Israeli Ministries by subscription only donna@israelprayer.com

The weekly Maoz Ministry prayer points picks up from the above on Israel's close call with an attempt by Iran to poison the Israeli water supply, with a good word on how unwise it is "to blindly support anything with the word Israel" attached to it. It is, they wisely report, "unhealthy both for Christians and for Israel." They continue, " I believe the healthiest way to view Israel is the way a father would see their child – a masterpiece in the making, but still in need of training, growth, and maturity. Like a child, Israel needs the ability to fail and get back up without fear of their team abandoning them. And like good parents, every occurrence - whether good or bad – should only encourage us to dig in harder with our prayers to see God’s dream of a beautiful Israel come true."

They also ask prayers over the need for housing and building to fill the need, as well as asking prayers for the economic recovery after the Covid-lockdown. For other prayer points, contact the ministry directly or subscribe to the Weekly Summary (15 pages each week of prayer letter excerpts from Israeli ministries)

No king, No Ephod | by Orna Grinman | A heart wrenching sight caught my attention a few days ago. A young man entered the alley beneath  my window, a helmet on his head, a mask covering his beard, and stopped by the side door to the little synagogue in the alley. He bowed his head, caressed the door with pale fingers, trying to remove some dust, kissed the mezuzah, and then caressed the door yet again. “My God,” I thought, “such longing. I’m not quite sure what it is he is missing so: praying as a quorum, communal life, perhaps You? Oh, how I hope it is You they are longing for.” Read in full online

Howard & Randy Bass just announced they have three weddings of their children this year - the third was just announced by their youngest son Tal, who fiancé is Daniel Ronnen, the grandson of one of the founders of Yad HaShmonah. Mazal tov to all the Bass family. Howard's articles note there is a Conversion for all in Messiah and Repentance leads to Conversion: Life Changing Character-Changing

In Mt HaCarmel congregation, Dani Sayag writes about the "demonstration of God’s perfect timing!!  He chose to send His Spirit to empower these new disciples to go out into the “harvest” and bring in the “first fruits” of the faith exactly on Shavuot." What deep riches there are to know the God-given biblical Feasts of the Lord and how they are significant to Israel and the Church. Great riches! The ask for prayers over their follow ups with many who wanted to visit the congregation after the quarantine was over. There has also been a lot of sharing their faith, in person and also online, with even an ultra-Orthodox man whould prayed after seeing our “Medabrim” videos Link for "The Forbidden Chapter": "God, if Yeshua isn’t the Messiah, then show me quickly. If He is the Messiah, then show me even more quickly!”

You can watch the services from HaCarmel on their YouTube channel, also listen in to some just past event at Midweek Meeting w/ Peter and the Midweek meeting women's forum. They write, " During the lockdown we were immediately thrust into the need to learn to use tools like video streaming and online conferencing in order to continue our worship, prayer and teaching services. We now believe strongly that the Lord is calling us to continue moving forward in developing these new areas of creative media ministry, that will enable us to even more effectively minister." To help them, contact their office on how to contribute.

Chuck Cohen  Intercessors for Israel in Jerusalem sends Friday Prayer Points 5/29/2020. One greatly important prayer point covers PM Netanyahu's trial which started recently and could last for years. Cohen writes, "It is driven by the left-wing, the media, and a "we-want-to-be-a-nation-like-all-the-other-nations" attitude that is dangerous.... Yet with all of media coverage and giving of mostly anti-Bibi opinions, still we want the truth about these accusations to be revealed. He also writes prayer points for the Annexation.

Beit Hallel pastor Israel Pochtar's 10-minute Shavuot/Pentecost Greeting and video message.

Avishalom Tekel of Tents of Mercy also sends a Shavuot greeting message and writes, " One of the enemy’s main efforts is to plant doubt in us regarding God’s faithfulness. However, when God promises something, heaven and earth may perish but His promise to us will come to pass!  .... This week was hard. The news about the senseless killing of George Floyd, highlighted the grave problems that we face today ~ racism, violence, pandemics, economic uncertainty, all threatening to make us lose sight of God’s faithfulness in life! When Yeshua addressed His disciples in answer to their question, all He said was “wait”! Wait in the place I set for you; wait in unity, wait in prayer … then you will receive power. So today in that spirit we are waiting for another dose of His Spirit for the end-times, when He will once again sweep us off of our feet with power and anointing to proclaim the answer to all these issues - Yeshua and His Gospel! Praying for you the same. Thank you for praying for us.

Arni Klein of Emmaus Way writes about their ministry in waiting upon the Lord with no agenda. He explores the question, " Why did God choose the celebration of the firstfruits and the anniversary of the day He gave Israel His Torah to send the gift of the Spirit? On that day, in an upper room in Jerusalem, one hundred twenty followers of Yeshua were the firstfruits of those who would come to fully understand the meaning of the Torah and be able to communicate the gospel of the Kingdom in spirit and in truth. They were in total submission to the will and plan of God. As no one knew what was coming or how long it would take, they were committed to wait on God until."

Ronit Bender in northern Israel writes about sharing her faith with those she meets, new people and some she hasn't seen in a long time that are suddenly on her radar again. This is the message of Yeshua is shared in Israel - person to person. It takes the genuine love of God expressed by the believers to attract the Jews to Yeshua. Ronit asks for prayers for those she has been touching, that God would remove the veil so they may see Yeshua. Sometimes it is also the Lord encouraging someone. You will love this:

" While washing my hair at the hairdresser, an elderly woman came in, she was in her 80s, and asked to owner how much it would cost to cut her hair. So this man replied "220 shekels." The dear woman's face looked very shocked, so was I to be honest, haircuts for short lengths are not so pricey! She spoke only Russian, so through translation I told her I was going to pay half the haircut. But the Lord said PAY IT IN FULL! I was delighted to obey, the woman's face lit up, and the Lord told me she believes in Yeshua. I asked her and yes she was a sister in the Lord. It caused a commotion in that place seeing a stranger paying for someone else, especially in this Corona season."  If anyone ministers, let him do it as with the ability which God supplies, that in all things God may be glorified through Messiah Yeshua." (1 Peter 4:10).

Here's My 2¢


Please! Tell Me What Is the Difference?

The big lies that are told so often people believe it's all true.
I am talking about the lies being told in the US about "police brutality," the common cries, "They're killing us!" or "We're being hunted." Attorney Benjamin Crump's claim that this is an American "genocide". It is all a pack of lies and the statistics gathered by the Washington Post - no friend of conservatives - proves it.

But the big lies that are told often end up being what people believe. And they believe the narratives so strongly THEY DON'T BOTHER TO LOOK AT THE FACTS, they are too awash in their feelings of empathy for the 'victims' of the narrative that they will not even bother looking at the truth. And of course the victims believe what they are told about how bad it is for their group, because so many of them are mired in poverty and hopelessness....a place their leaders do not mind keeping them in, just so they can become personally wealthy and politically powerful.

These are things I have learned well following Israel's battle for the past 30 years with spirits of hatred and rage, lying and greed. Yet nations all over the world have found fault with Israel, claimed that the problem was "morally equivalent" wrong doing, and more Israel's fault than the terrorists and wars they were continually battling.

Lord Jesus! Why is this not more obvious to so many of my friends who act like the European attitude toward Israel over the years, that Israel must give up more and more to appease the "rightful" rage of the Palestinians?

It is because the big lies told so often, the narrative, has convinced people that lies are truth and the facts as just racist deceptions.

So now in the USA we see large groups of white people prostrating themselves before Black Lives Matter, or sitting down with their hands in the air (that slogan developed for the lies built about the rightful shooting by a policeman in Ferguson of thug Michael Brown) and reciting a vow to BLM to be good little submissive 'white people' promising to "educate" in their community of how racist we are.

NO WAY I am taking that vow built on lies.  That's my 2¢ —Donna Diorio
