SPECIAL: Feast of Trumpets | Arrows from Zion | 9 6 2021

 I am late putting this up and because I sent out the Weekly Summary version instead of an abbreviated Arrows from Zion version to both mailing lists. I am going to be highly selective of what I put online in this special issue for the Feast of Trumpets:



From Asher Intrater’s teaching “Seven Trumpets” (Revive Israel)

SPECIAL: Feast of Trumpets
by Donna Diorio

This is a special focus issue this week devoted entirely to the online events and the teachings of Israeli Messianic ministries on the Feast of Trumpets, which is the official opening of the High Holy Days God’s prophetic Feast days. Honestly, I would hate to be a Christian at this time in history who did not respect or understand what the Messianic Jewish believers in Jesus know about the BIBLICAL, God-appointed Holy Days that we are entering into tonight.
     The reason is because these holidays were appointed by God, not by the Jews, and they are God’s prophetic pictures pointing to His due season for restoring Israel to faith. Make no mistake: this is not just pertinent to Jews but will have a direct impact on what Christians will be experiencing during this appointed season too.
     This evening at sunset in Israel begins the Feast of Trumpets  which is known as Rosh Hashanah to non-Messianic Jews, or Jewish New Year. It is not the biblical New Year though. This and many other things are misunderstood mysteries for Christians who pay little attention to anything to do with the Jewish faith in Jesus. There is still time learn what the prophetic pictures in the biblical holy days foreshadow. Please share these teachings and events with your Christian friends who don’t know.
All of other news from the ministries this week will be carried over to next week’s issue.

Arrows from Zion
Summarized from the Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests Israeli Ministries

Also from Asher & Revive Israel:  ONLINE EVENT On Tuesday, September 7th, 2021, at 5 AM (PDT) | 3 PM (IDT) we will gather together as a global family to take our place of authority, in oneness of spirit, to speak life and peace into a world that is shaken by fear.  At Facebook or on YouTube in 4 languages
     In the posture of being seated in the Heavenly places with Christ Jesus, there is the authority to declare Life, Mercy, Supernatural Protection and Provision for our brothers and sisters in Afghanistan.  We have faith to declare together that those who are persecuting the church today will also experience an encounter with Jesus that brings about their conversion— and the scales will come off their eyes as He encountered Saul on the way to Damascus. With the sound of victory, we will blow the trumpet!

There was a special commentary from David Silver of Out of Zion ministries on Preparing to celebrate the Fall Feasts of Israel - the "moedim" appointed feasts from )  Leviticus 23:1 - 2 YHVH said to Moses: Speak to the Israelites and tell them "These are the YHVH's appointed times which you must proclaim as Holy assemblies. They are My appointed times ...”
 
   Also a booklet of David's teaching on "
the time of the restoration of all things for Israel and the Church (see my Restoration booklet)"

From Kerem-El (God's Vineyard) Congregation A congregational planting by Kehilat HaCarmel, "In that day sing to her, "A vineyard of red wine! I, the LORD, keep it, I water it every moment; Lest any hurt it, I keep it night and day." Isaiah 27:2-3 | The summer holidays in Israel are now past as we move straight into the Lord's Fall Feasts that begin very early (September 6th) this year. Celebrating the Feast of Trumpets (also known as the traditional Jewish New Year), the Day of Atonement - the most holy day of the Jewish calendar, and then also the Feast of Tabernacles hold so much richness and significance, especially for believers in the 21st century.
     As the day of the Lord's return approaches, we are commanded to encourage each other (Heb 10:25), and a great way to accomplish that is by examining God's road map that He laid out through His feast days. The Feast of Trumpets foreshadows that last trumpet that will sound as the King returns to take His bride and set up His kingdom here on earth. The Day of Atonement reminds us of when we will all stand before the Lord of all the earth, for us who believe to receive our reward, and for those who don't, to receive judgment. Finally, the Feast of Tabernacles tells us of when we will once again tabernacle with God, and He with us, in His kingdom. Much more could be said about each "appointed time", so we encourage you to dig deep in God's word and enjoy the riches to be found.

Chuck Cohen,  Intercessors for Israel in Jerusalem, writes: "Monday at sunset, Rosh Hashanah, the first of the biblical fall feasts begins. For observant Jews, it starts a ten-day period of introspection in which they try to get right with man and with God. This is a good time to intercede for many Jews to receive a revelation of Messiah Yeshua. As this feast is called in scripture Yom Teruah, the Day of the Blowing [of the Shofar], please wake up many Jews to hear You calling them and then grace them with Your salvation (Eph. 2:8-10). "

Chaim Malespin, Director of Operations at Aliyah Return Center writes:  "This week we had the long awaited, Grand Opening of our “Upper Room" Lone Soldier House after some unfortunate setbacks. But ITS OPEN! We want to be there for and welcome IDF soldiers who have committed themselves to defending the defenseless in this Land and who have no family to stay with, when on leave, and no family to celebrate these High Holy Days and Feasts of the Lord. with. See the preparations video here!

Israel Pochtar of the Ashdod Beit Hallel Family Network of Congregations & Voice of Judah Israel Ministries  writes, "The Feast of Trumpets - A Veiled Mystery with a Deep Meaning | Part 2 VIDEO and Article with Pastor Pochtar | In modern tradition, the Feast of Trumpets symbolizes the beginning of the Jewish New Year, but the biblical Feast of Trumpets is so much more than that."

Sally Shiff  Intercessor & Liaison for Kehilat HaMaayan in Kfar Saba Congregation of the Wellspring led by Tony and Orna Sperandeo writes, "A new chapter unfolds as Jews around the world will start celebrating Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, and Sukkot.  It’s a mixture of feasting and fasting for the sake of glorifying God.  Our congregation will spend the time during Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur praying for our nation as well as the world, culminating in a day long fast. . . . On September 15, at 10:00 am we will be offering 24 HOURS OF PRAYER AND FASTING for the restoration of the Jewish people.

     Also, a few words of tribute for David Friedman who died from Covid: "
...last night, a dear brother in the Lord, David Friedman, passed over into the presence of the Lord.  Perhaps good news for him, but sad news for all that he left behind sooner than hoped for and expected.   We knew David and Margalit from the time that they immigrated, since they first arrived in Beer Sheva.  He had a demeanor that was quiet and unassuming, but a heart that moved him to action and service to others, in sports as well as in spiritual and political ministry.

Avishalom Tekel leads the northern Israel suburban Ohalai Rachamim, or Tents of Mercy. He writes,  "Tonight begins Rosh HaShana - the Feast of Trumpets. . . .To us as believers this festival bears an even a deeper meaning. We hear the sound of trumpet declaring Yeshua’s soon return and are reminded that we have been redeemed from the fruit of Adam and Eve, and have entered into the sweetness of His everlasting Kingdom!  Rosh HaShana also is the first of three significant holidays that occur during the Hebrew months of Elul and Tishrei. I am sharing a short message here about the significance of these holy days during these times. May the knowledge of His redemption renew your life and bring you into a New and Good Season."Watch this special Rosh Hashanah video greeting from Tents of Mercy Avi Tekle.

Gil Afriat who is the lead pastor of Tiferet Yeshua in Tel Aviv writes this article you can read online,  The Day of Trumpeting - A prophetic dress rehearsal. ALSO:  A trumpeting call for the Bride to Arise on the Mt. of Olives | In January this year, an inter-congregational group of worshipers and intercessors came together to seek the Lord for unity in the Body of Messiah in Israel. As a result, the song Kumi Kala (Arise O Bride) was born – a cooperative effort calling for the bride of Messiah to stand together as one, purified and unified in love. Together with different congregations and ministries in the Land and internationally, we felt called to erect a worship alter of trumpeting on the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem to worship, blow the shofar and announce the coming of the conquering King, to call the Bride to arise in love, unity and holiness to meet the Bridegroom. It was an incredibly powerful time, with worshipers and intercessors from all over the Body of Messiah in Israel and of all ages, and we ended up worshiping and praying until after dark."

Urgent HEALING Needs: Life and Death is in the power of the tongue
Please keep in prayer the Israeli believers who are fighting for their lives or other urgent health needs: 

“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of a beloved Servant of G-D, Disciple of Yeshua, Lover of Torah, Faithful Husband, Devoted Father, Proud Grandfather, Dedicated Rabbi, Humble Teacher, Reliable Friend, Persistent Advocate for Aliyah and the Rights of the Unborn, and a Patriotic War Veteran.  Rabbi David ben Nissim ,PhD was born on April 16, 1953 and he passed into Heaven on Sunday, September 5th, 2021, while surrounded by his family and friends.  David was a UMJC Rabbi, professor at the Messianic Jewish Theological Institute and former dean of King of Kings College in Jerusalem, the first Messianic Jewish candidate that ran for a seat in the Knesset, and more recently served as the Director of Lev Zion Beit Midrash and the Rabbi of Kehilat Darchei Noam in the Jerusalem area. "I am still a part of our people. Israel's destiny is my destiny. Israel's prayers are my prayers." - Rabbi David Friedman, PhD.  Announcements regarding the funeral and Shiva will follow. 

Please Pray for Claude Ezagouri of the Morning Star Fellowship who has started a treatment that is due to last at least 6 months for a medical problem he has been suffering from.  Believe in prayer with them as they look to the Lord for complete healing and for  prompt recovery from some other ailments.  | Ronit Bender finally has seen a new cardiologist she likes because he is caring, she’s taking new meds, feels better but still asks for our prayers | Pray for Carolyn Hyde whose left hand is so pained she can no longer play guitar and it is also sometimes painful to play piano | Silvers: David's knees and Josie's back pain | A prayer request for Naomi, for a dear family that is a part of Israel Pochtar's pastoral team, who was diagnosed with colon cancer. "Despite what this battle entails, we are confident in God’s unfailing Word and promises." Read in her own words| Please continue to pray for Jacob Damkani for the LORD's mercies over Jacob and his dear wife, Elisheva | Dov Bikas – I have been very tired these days: probably as a result of a combination of factors: my age, stress of the days of running to the bomb shelter, work load in the ministry, etc. Olga Bikas: We are grateful that Olga is feeling better these days! Though the doctors never found the cause of the dizziness that put her in hospital a month ago, they did rule out major issues like brain tumors, heart problems, etc., so this is already comforting. Olga’s back also keeps improving and she is able to walk more outside now than she did before.
