Arrows from Zion
Strategically Aimed for the Lord’s Harvest in Israel
Contact info for all the ministries included inside the subscription-only Weekly Summary.

In the early 1990's I (Donna) had a series of revelations about the contributions that the apostle Paul gathered over a several year period and which he was determined to take and lay at the feet of the apostles in Jerusalem by the feast of Shavuot, or Pentecost. Even knowing he would be imprisoned in chains if he went to Jerusalem, I believe the Apostle Paul was so determined because he was a prophetic model of the giving from Christians in the nations that would in the end come to pass during the prophesied season that "all Israel" would be saved ...and which will create a ripple effect of "life from the dead" (salvations) in all the nations. 

As Paul wrote to the Corinthians in encouraging them to collect this donation to the apostles in Jerusalem for the ministry there, "For it pleased those from Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem.  It pleased them indeed, and they are their debtors.  For if the Gentiles have been partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister to them in material things."

To the apostle Paul this was not about mere humanitarian outreach to the poor, it was about funding the ministry within Israel.  Remember - none of them in the first century expect that it would be a couple of thousand years before the prophetic events just prior to the return of Messiah would take place.  The contribution "for the poor among the saints who are in Jerusalem" is speaking in the relative terms of ministry funding, not merely meeting the material needs but the greater purpose of assisting them to share the spiritual provisions in Israel.

None of the first century apostles saw more clearly than the apostle Paul what God has purposed in the season of Israel's ultimate salvation, and how our contribution to that ministry will trigger a great harvest among the nations.  It is written throughout Paul's letters for those God gives eyes to see, which is one of the reasons that I delighted in this article by Asher Intrater received this week, Wealth of the Gentiles and Feet of the Apostles.  I believe it communicates the necessary understanding of both the integrity required, and the soberness of the responsibility to stand wisely in these prophetic places.

Asher writes, "There is a great danger in this outpouring of financial blessing.  Those who receive it must act in strict integrity, even personal austerity, while at the same time being aggressively generous to use the finances to advance the kingdom of God."  Read more!

Also from the Revive Israel, a video teaching by Asher Baptism in Fire; the Revive Israel Team ministry trips of Youval and Basem Adranlym to minister with Arab Christians and Palestinian leaders on a Mediterranean island; also of Cody and Andrew to Japan.  They also share a Clarion Project article Terror by Numbers

Israel has just had several days of celebration of the Purim holiday which is a prophetic picture of the Church in the nations in the figure of Esther, interceding - not just in prayer but in life-threatening action - to save the Jews from the murderous scheming of Haman.  Howard Bass of the Yeshua's Inheritance congregation in Beer Sheva writes about the book of Esther and the applications of it in Israel's modern times.

Howard also gives us an update on their wounded soldier, David, and the young believer ladies who were so seriously injured in a terrible car accident. He writes that the driver is still in serious condition but her parents have come to faith in Yeshua through seeing all the love from other believers towards their daughter!

Bass shares a little of the history of the Jaffa Gate Christ Church which their teens & soldiers visited recently on a historical tour. He also shares that their son Tal is finished his military service and about to start his pre-college exams.  They ask you to keep Tal in your prayers.

News from Ben Juster who is the operations director for Tikkun International, first up is the news that his mom, Patti Juster will be having a heart valve replacement surgery in the next couple of months. Read more inside the Weekly Summary attachment        Some of the prayer requests for the Tikkun Ministries this month are for the renovation of the Tel Aviv Tiferet Yeshua congregation; for the new elder candidate in the Love of Yeshua congregation in Jerusalem; for the Tikkun Board meetings upcoming March 19-22.  "As part of these meetings, the Revive Israel leaders, Tents of Mercy leaders, and leaders from local congregations will be meeting together for relationship strengthening, strategy, and a practical implementation plan for what is discussed.  Please pray for these critical meetings."

The Maoz Ministry weekly prayer letter is written by Katy Smith representing Ari and Shira Sorko-Ram. First off Katy asks for prayers for rain. "The Sea of Galilee's level is at an all-time low, possibly endangering surrounding aquifers.  Though Israel no longer relies on the water from the Kinneret as the only drinking source, it is vital that it maintains water levels above the 'bottom red line.' Please PRAY that the next two months of the rainy season will bring the desperately-needed precipitation to northern Israel, where the farmers are trying to save this year's crops."

Secondly Katy writes about a special recognition celebration for Dr David Stern as they prepare next week to release a Hebrew version of his Hebrew New Testament Commentary. "Dr. David Stern is known for his scholarly knowledge of the Bible and maybe especially for his Hebrew New Testament Commentary, which is a uniquely comprehensive guide used by pastors and leaders around the world.

This translation by the Maoz book department has been a work in progress for the last four years and to mark this accomplishment, "Maoz is organizing a special Evening of Recognition, celebrating both Dr. Stern's impact on the body of believers worldwide and the launch of his book in Hebrew."  For more news from Maoz inside the subscription only Attached DOCX Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries

The Dugit ministry of Avi and Chaya Mizrachi send thanks for the prayers for Chaya as she ministered at a Jerusalem Women's Conference.  She was off to Poland on the 9th to minister at another women's conference where last year over 400 came to know the Lord. Pray for much fruit.

Orna Grinman of A Sign & An Example ministry to orphans, widows and single parents has penned a blog article on Purim, A Bible Book That Hides Him.

In Haifa the Immanuel Book Shop and church is the ministry of Pastor Najeeb and Elizabeth Atteih, who also do Syrian refugee ministry and have a ministry to the Christian Arab soldiers in the IDF. You can read inside the Weekly Summary attachment how they are trying to update the resources in their Bible book shop where all sorts of people drop in to talk and seek materials, including muslims and orthodox Jews. 

Currently their Christian solder's ministry is helping 25 soldiers consistently and a few other soldiers occasionally. The majority of these soldiers come from broken homes and are facing many difficult situations in their lives. Many of them are lacking people in their lives who can listen to them, love them, hug them, give them spiritual guidance, or support them.  Ruth, who writes these prayer letters for Najeeb and Elizabeth asks, "Please pray for Najeeb and Elizabeth as they carry great burdens on their shoulders, and need God’s strength day by day as they carry on their work."  Read more inside the subscription only Attached DOCX Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries

We have news also from the HaMaayan (Wellspring) congregation in Kfar Saba, thanks to Sally Shiff who sends their prayer letters out. Of course they have been observing Purim, as they do all the feasts of Israel. Sally shares about a recent congregational field trip in the Judean Hills where they visited many historic biblical sites together.  They also dedicated a new questhouse where volunteers who come to assist the congregation will be able to stay while interning or volunteering at the congregation. See more details on that and the next Taglit Hamaayan program in English that starts May 26-June 4.  It is a time of touring, training, intercession& celebrating God’s purposes and promises for Israel. Contact details inside the Weekly Summary attachment   

Fresh (and refreshed) back from New Zealand, Evan and Maala Thomas have returned to Israel to take up senior pastoral role at Beit Hallel congregation in Netanya.  First, Evan and fellow pastor Lev joined with 37 pastoral colleagues for a 2-day retreat together in the Negev.  From there, they began the congregational festivites surrounding the Purim.  At the end of the month, Evan and Maala witll be in Hong Kong for 5 days of intensive networking together with Swiss colleagues of an Israeli/ Swiss organization, “BeYachad”.  You can read more about the vision they have for the strategic ministry partners they are in relationship with inside the Weekly Summary attachment.

One other prayer request they mention several times is for the health of many among them who have been suffering chronic respiratory illnesses after a hard winter in Israel. (We have been seeing much of the same in Texas and among our Facebook friends, so suspect this is a priority prayer to raise up for all of us in the body of the Lord - that no weapon formed against us shall prosper and healing will flow and poor health be returned to well being.)

WEEKLY Arrows from Zion 3/8/2017

Priority Prayer Focus Mar 8, 2017

"For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?”  Esther 4:14

It was not just a one occasion statement.  Since this event recorded 2,600 years ago in the book of Esther,  we have seen these same circumstances rise up repeatedly in history and in many geographic places where Jews came under threat. 

Not only that but now with the restoration of the modern state of Israel we see a new thing: the threat against Jews has been ongoing non-stop since 1948 in Israel but also increasing and spreading. The unrelenting threat began first to new State of Israel then decade by decade it has increasingly spread throughout the nations of the world.  Now year by year we are seeing the threat become so pronounced in many nations that Jews are emptying in nations across the world to seek safety in numbers in Israel.

Do you see what I'm saying? The attempted Nazi extermination of Jews in Germany ended the 2,000 era of "Haman" attempts against Jews within a single geographic area. With God's restoration of the State of Israel the era of worldwide "Haman" aggression began.  First in the immediate and continuing attempt to wipe Israel out, but now infecting the nations it has continuously spread out to encompass Jews in all the nations too. There is no longer a single geographic location of pogroms, but a worldwide persecution which will ultimately lead up to the prophecy that all nations would come up to war against Israel.

There has never been a greater need for God's Esther's, who are the worldwide church, to come to grips with who they are and to understand fully that they have been called into the kingdom for such a time as this. It is beyond what Esther might have wanted for herself, she finally had to grasp what God's intentions for her were in placing her in that position in the first place. That is what the Church must wrestle with and get too.

So first up is this video invitation for the annual live streaming Esther Fast event is coming up THURSDAY March 9th from 14:00 – 22:00 Jerusalem time at www.reviveisrael.org Please watch and share the invitation video if you haven't already!

Also from Asher Intrater's Revive Israel, an ARTICLE The Core Value of Reconciliation.  This video by Cody Archer Knowing Your Prophetic Season and inside the subscription only Attached DOCX Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries, an ARTICLE Third Kind of Love, by Malek Gavris and Asher Intrater | Recently Malek and Susanne Gavris traveled with Betty and me to Brazil.  It was a joy to be with them, and to demonstrate our love as Messianic Jews and Arab Christians.  Malek and Suzanne serve with us on the Revive Israel team. They are dear "spiritual children" to us and part of Revive's extended ministry family.

Avi Mizrachi of the Adonai Roi congregation in Tel Aviv and the Dugit Outreach writes Israel, A Country in Need. " Yeshua was interested in meeting both the spiritual and physical needs of His people. Often, it was the meeting of a physical need that opened the eyes of Israel to their Messiah. Here at Dugit we believe that Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. "

They write, " According to a report recently published by the NGO, there are about 2,546,000 (31.6%) impoverished people living in the country. This includes 1,613,000 adults (29.8%), and 932,000 children (35.1%), according to the findings. More than a third of these children dropped out of school to help support their families. Almost 70% of the impoverished families earn an average salary of 4,000 shekels a month – about a thousand dollars (1/4 less than the cost of housing alone). When it comes to senior citizens, the statistics are not much better. Most elderly (94%) will say that the government benefits are not enough to live in dignity or to purchase bare necessities. The majority of elderly cannot afford a nursing home or in-home care. The homeless make up 10% of the poor people while the other 90% live in old homes or housing projects."

PLEASE if you are going to donate to the humanitarian need in Israel, don't give your donation to the famous "Christians and Jews" unsaved rabbi whose TV commercials we see around every Jewish holiday. Please give through those who are ministering to the physical and spiritual need of Israelis. Find out how to help the Dugit Distribution Center in Tel Aviv feed and clothe the needy inside the Weekly Summary attachment   You can also read other news from this ministry there.

The House of Victory which is led by Eric Benson is a rehab ministry attached to the Carmel Congregation in northern Israel. Due to the high concentration of people with addictions and in the sex trade on the streets of Tel Aviv, many of the Messianic outreaches work cooperatively on the streets of Tel Aviv. When the reach the men and women on the streets of Tel Aviv, they are taken back to the rehabs located in various parts of Israel. This is not a glamorous work and it takes the heart after God's own heart to do this kind of ministry which is heartbreaking, but also glorious when lives are restored by the power of relationship with Yeshua.  Please read the ministry letter from Eric Benson for the past month and be encouraged by their steadfast love to minister in the name of Yeshua to those society does not even want to lay eyes on. It is inside the Weekly Summary attachment          

We received a short note from Eddie and Jackie Santoro who said they were having a wonderful trip in the USA - their first in two years since Eddie was diagnosed with a brain tumor (which is gone now!) Glad to hear their trip home to New York and also to Florida has gone so well. We look forward to hearing more when they return home to Jerusalem.  Praise God for the testimony of GREAT healing for Eddie.

The Karem-El congregation, also connected to the Carmel congregation, has been placing a major focus on families over the past months. That continued in February with the Israeli "National Family Day" when the congregation met for a celebration together.  Recently one of their home groups volunteered at a youth center for Jewish Ethiopian immigrants, and another team at the congregation pitched in to clean up the beaches with the "Beautiful Land Initiative".  Read more about this congregation's activities inside the Weekly Summary attachment          where you will also see their prayer requests, including praying for their congregants serving in the IDF.

Arni and Yonit Klein of Emmaus Way write this month about an intensely specific prophetic word about their ministry which was received from a European prayer network, from someone they did not know and who did not know them.  What the intercessor saw was so precise and lengthy, that Arni writes, "Why did Father go through all the “trouble” to send this word in such an indirect manner? The bottom line for us is that it confirms our belief that we have been given a specific insight into an aspect of Heaven’s strategic battle plan, which consequently strengthens our resolve to pass on what we have received."   Read about it inside the Weekly Summary attachment . Their next English-speaking Galilee Worship Gathering is April 19-29.  The next German-speaking one is May 18-28.       

Daniel and Shirya Yahav pastor the Peniel Fellowship in Tiberius, also a family-oriented congregation, it is perhaps the largest congregation in Israel.  Part of the investment they are making in their families is the congregational learning center and kindergarten.  They have even developed a Messianic-oriented curriculum for teaching in their elementary and kindergarten.  Read more inside of the many ways this congregation is ministering to its families on parenting, schooling, youth and children's events. The youth even participate in serving in emergency rescue training and the their pastor, Daniel, serves in the Home Front Command, a reserves that protects their village.  You will find this an interesting read inside the Weekly Summary attachment              

Ron Cantor's March Update shares about the exciting growth at Tiferet Yeshua congregation (TYC) in Tel Aviv. Also there are articles on the Testimony of Music from Shai Sol; Pastor Gil Afriat recounts some of the amazing breakthroughs of last year and casts the vision for the coming year! God is moving in Tel Aviv in Looking Back at 2016 and Forward to 2017; Pastor Moti shares an amazing testimony of Breakthroughs with the Orthodox, and Ron had a great surprise at the end of his message last week in San Diego An Israeli receives Yeshua in San Diego

If you are interested to know more about the Purim Feast that Israelis celebrate this week - the one taken from the book of Esther - all you have to do is read Martin Sarvis' weekly report inside the Weekly Summary attachment.  Sarvis writes,  "It is unfortunate that Purim has come to be regarded in Israel primarily as a minor holiday for children (often adorned in Halloween costumes from America). We bless the children, certainly—but for their very sake we believe it important that Israel take seriously all of the message of this season.  We encourage you to join with us in doing so!" He includes prayer points from Rick Ridings of Succat Hallel.

Israel Pochtar of the Beit Hallel congregation in Ashdod also writes about Purim and their many ways to doing outreach to the community celebrating the festival of Purim - like their Youth Conference that will minister to young people throughout southern Israel.  He writes, "This conference is called "Next Level: Step into your calling" and that is exactly what we want to encourage our youth to do, push through until they reach a new level of anointing and power. Our goal is to motivate them to find their place in the kingdom, as well as in the society they live in. Whatever career path they chose in life, we want to give them the tools to recognize their God-given calling and shine His light in every area of life."  Read more about this congregation inside the Weekly Summary attachment          

And last but not least just a couple of stories from the great resource, KehilaNews. com:

Court orders wedding hall to compensate Messianic couple | Kehila News Israel Staff | An Israeli court has ordered that the owners of the Vasilio wedding hall in Yavne must pay 10,000 shekels ($2,500) to a Messianic couple for refusing to rent the hall to them for their wedding after the couple said they wanted to read New Testament scriptures under the hupa.

A Trail to Follow | Eitan Shishkoff | Let's face it. We all want to see God move in miraculous ways. After all, wasn't that Yeshua's calling card? Wasn't that the apostles' validation of the gospel message? And what about the prophets of Israel? Didn't they portend the outpouring of the Spirit with signs and wonders in the last days, leading up to the long-awaited return of our Messiah King?

WEEKLY Arrows from Zion 3/1/2017

Priority Prayer Focus Mar 1, 2017

Pray for discernment for us all - in Israel and in the international church - as deception becomes an increasing factor in our daily lives from the daily news to the pulpit.  As it says in 1 Timothy 4:1-2, The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons. Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron. Let us keep the faith, speaking the truth in love.

In the first prayer excerpt this week, I have to tell you that I have such an absolute respect and affection for this lady, Ruth Nessim, who is a pioneer of the faith in Yeshua in Israel. Her prayer letters always touch and inspire me, but this one also moved me to tears as Ruth took a look back at her life in the walk of faith. Ruth has recently won a battle with cancer of the Lymphatic System, and she continues to run her race with such single-hearted focus.  Please read as Ruth shares her heart and prayer requests for this month inside the subscription-only Attached DOCX Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries

From the Hebrew congregation in Arad, Hasdey Yeshua (Mercy of Yeshua), a report on a former ultra-Orthodox, now follower of Yeshua, who came to encourage the Arad Russian-speaking Messianic congregation who are being harrassment from the local ultra-Orthodox. "... he knew he had to respond, to come and encourage them. You see, he himself had grown up ultra-orthodox. He knew that the excessive anger and fanaticism demonstrated by them are not a cause for despair, but are a reason for hope. Something is stirring in these people, as it had been in him years before."  Read more inside the Weekly Summary attachment              

The congregation also gives an update on the Bedouin believer they had to take in due to danger and even threat to his life from his family and community after they found out he had come to faith in Yeshua.  The threat became so acute, he has had to flee the city in the middle of the night and is now in a secure place with strong believers. He does have other challenges in his life - the illegal activities he was involved with before he came to faith. Pray for this young man and read his story inside the Weekly Summary attachment            

Also in Arad, we heard from Lura Beckford this week who along with her husband Eddie have been in the crosshairs of religious persecution for longer than this prayer list has existed - and that is 16 years! Now Lura writes, "We just got a letter for Eddie today from our health insurance here in Israel. They have canceled his insurance since he is no longer a citizen of Israel (that's NEWS to us). We have 45 days to appeal it.  We can't appeal it until the Interior Ministry gives us formal notice. They are ignoring us and refusing to stamp Eddie's passport for his citizenship.  It's all quite illegal.  We have a lawyer who is working on it, but they are not responding to him either.  We need some specialized prayers! "

Lura will be speaking in Hanover, Pa on March 18th at 3pm. Details as they become available.

You may have heard this from other sources but a key member of the Beer Sheva Yeshua's Inheritance congregation which Howard Bass leads, was injured in his IDF service guarding Joseph's Tomb. A pipe bomb was thrown at him and it was packed with sharp shrapnel. Howard writes, that he is currently in Sheba Hospital never Tel Aviv : "David told us how the Lord protected him, in that only his hand was struck, and even though the second finger was 'dangling', all of the nerves and tendons remained intact. The doctors suggested an amputation, but he said "No", despite the longer process of recovery, from the doctors' viewpoint. He will need a replacement for the knuckle connecting the finger to the palm, and other cosmetic surgery. David is active on the worship team, and is growing in his personal worship of the Lord, and is a very positive influence on his peers.  He believes that God gave him a gift to play the guitar, and wants to get back to playing." Please pray for a miraculous full recovery.

Also Howard reports on a 3-car accident near Beer Sheva where three people were killed and three believers were badly injured.  Please read the details of these three believers, an Israeli from Texas, a Korean sister and an Israeli believer inside the Weekly Summary attachment.  A family in Yeshua's Inheritance has opened their home to the one woman who has been released from the hospital but wants to remain in Beer Sheva until her friends also recover. Please pray for them.

There is also a report about the young woman from the Ukraine that believers in the Negev and Tel Aviv are helping to raise funds for her treatment in Israel for skin cancer.

Among the good news from Howard Bass are two examples of actively seeking unity with the other believer ministries in Israel. Howard talks about things he and the congregation are doing with Dov Bikas, and also with Avner and David Boskey.  It is always encouraging to see ministries who are not affiliated per se reach out to fellowship together or to share ministry and teaching.  That is where God commanded the blessing - where brethren dwell together in unity.

Orna Grinman whose A Sign & An Example ministry is to orphans, widows and single parents shares a new blog entry, A little bit of Nachat | Waking up this morning I thought I knew the rules of the game. Earlier this week, 154 stones in a Jewish cemetery in Missouri were violated. Anti-Semitism worldwide was on the rise, and maybe it was time for me to bring my angle about this. But then I pulled up the Israeli news site and read that Vice President Mike Pence put on gloves, flew into Missouri and helped clean up the place.

Ron Cantor of Messiah's Mandate also has new blog entries this week, Nikki Haley Blasts Hypocritical U.N.

Israel Pochtar has a truly "Good Report" upon his return from a Jewish-Arab Reconciliation Conference in Turkey. The Lord is doing seriously wonderful  things among the Syrian refugees "who fled to Jordan, Turkey and Lebanon came in contact with local Christians in those countries, and now these refugees who were once in remote regions and completely unreachable with the gospel, were now reached and heard the message of Christ. God is doing some mighty miracles among these people, that doubtfully we will not hear about in the mainstream media.

Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries

First of all there is an update on the Special mailing I sent out last week about the call to witches to curse President Trump and all who helped him - there are additional upcoming dates they will be doing this through June, and also some excellent additional information from Martin Sarvis in Jerusalem.

Also multiple news headlines under the general topic of Anti-Semitism Increasing Around the World from Barry and Batya Segal's Jerusalem News Network in Jerusalem.

My Word

On his radio program yesterday, Mark Levin slammed biased media assertions that somehow President Trump was to blame for the rise of anti-Semitic activity in America. Levin said that instead, it was the Democrats sidling up to Islamists.

Without getting into the political weeds on this, it did strike a nerve with me because I keep seeing Israeli news people and newspapers making accusations against Trump being responsible for the rise in American anti-Semitism. That is 100% off-base.  

On Twitter, news emails and Facebook, recently there is reporting in Israeli newspapers who are parroting American Jewish groups accusing the rise in anti-Semitism on Donald Trump who they say has drawn out the hidden American White Supremacists.  The truth is that it is the  Islamist Supremacists that are the cause for the rise in anti-Semitism in America as they have in Europe. Islamist Supremacists have overrun our politically correct college campuses and have aligned themselves with every Leftist protest movement out there from Black Lives Matter to Feminist groups. Islamists do NOT align with these groups because they are really for those issues, but because they are infiltrating to infect those groups with Jew hatred and Israel hated (and Christian hatred will follow).

I want to WARN ALL MY ISRAELI FRIENDS reading those horribly slanted stories in your Israeli newspapers: You are not getting the truth from those American Jewish organizations who are deceived so intensely on this count they cannot see the real cause of rising American anti-Semitism. Let me tell you, they are making themselves odious to people who see the truth and cannot understand why Jews would believe such things. It needs to be pointed out repeatedly that the reason for Leftish Jewish accusations like this is because they are UNSAVED - they need salvation to open the eyes of the blind.

Worldwide the rise in anti-Semitism is not coming from White Nationalist Supremacists, but from the advance of Islamic Supremacists. In Europe they called Geert Wilders essentially the same as they are calling Donald Trump - to take the focus of the true culprits. We must open our eyes to this manipulation of the facts.

                                                    

The Israeli Messianic Marketplace  Feature of the Week:

A few places are available on the upcoming Baruch HaBa 2017 Conference & Tour. The dates of the event are May 9-18, 2017. If you are interested in joining us for this special time of touring, prayer and fellowship, please write to Leora at baruch.haba2017@gmail.com for details.

WEEKLY Arrows from Zion 2/22/2017

Priority Prayer Focus Feb 22, 2017

Zion Alignment | by Asher Intrater | "In order to get ready for Yeshua’s return, the attention of the whole world must be focused in the right direction. A theater play cannot start, the curtain cannot rise, and the star actor cannot appear until everyone is first looking at the stage. Jerusalem is the stage. Jesus is the star."  Read more online

Doesn't that phrase "Zion Align" grab you? It grabs me and I believe like these first entries this week that the season for the believers of the nations to "Zion Align" is in full swing!  Let's pray that those in the churches who have not believed that Israel was any big deal to the God or to the Church in these days would begin to experience the same awakening we had to the truth, and that they would put the feet on their faith of aligning with the Body of the Yeshua in Israel.

Arrows from Zion
Strategically Aimed for the Lord’s Harvest in Israel
Contact info for all the ministries included inside the subscription-only Weekly Summary.

Martin Sarvis in Jerusalem  writes that we are in "A Season for Strengthening Ties" - something we have just seen take place in the United States with a new leader in our nation only one month. What a difference in the countenances of Israeli Prime Minister meeting with President Obama versus that in his meeting with President Trump.  No matter the blah-blah reassures that are given publicly, there is no mistaking the genuine feelings of dealing with those who dislike you versus those who like you a lot. Nevertheless, President Trump faces a truly unprecedented battle, and from my point of view, it is more because of his commitment to be a friend to Israel and an enemy to Islamist supremacy. The devil is stirring up radical opposition to Trump on every front, so please keep praying for this strategically important alliance to be solid and not to be sabotaged. 

But Israel is making outreach to strengthen ties in other nations too as Sarvis discusses inside the subscription only Attached DOCX Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries. We must not forget that even when we "Zion-aligned" believers are in a minority in our nation, that our prayers ascend to God and become multiplied when His answer returns to us on the earth.  Our Zion alignment has great impact our nations Zion alignment!

This prayer list is dedicated to concentrating on the laborers in the Lord's harvest in Israel. We believe that as more and more come to faith in Israel, that we in the nations will also see more salvation come forth. The first shall be last, Yeshua said, but the apostle Paul speaking about the impact of Israel's salvation in the last days said, "For if their rejection brought reconciliation to the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?"  Personally, I do not see that as meaning just the triggering of the Second Coming, but also that as Israel comes to faith in Yeshua, that it will trigger a wave of spiritual life all over the world among the peoples of the nations. As Paul followed that statement with this one:  "If the first part of the dough is holy, so is the whole batch; if the root is holy, so are the branches.…" Things to mull in your spirit as you pray through the prayer requests from Israeli ministries featured here each week.

One prayer letter offers an exceptionally good report about being help to help recover a prodigal son they took in from streets of Tel Aviv a few months ago. Dov Bikas writes about a young man from a Messianic Russian family in northern Israel who they have been able to minister to at their Beer Sheva rehab. It is a really encouraging testimony related by the young man himself. You can read it inside the Weekly Summary attachment. Most of us who walk with the Lord know that prodigal sons happen in even the most faithful families. Please pray for all the prodigals in Israel, that God will give them the ability to recover their senses and come home to the genuine faith.

The Tel Aviv part of the ministry that Dov heads is now doing "night shifts" at the Aviv Center. Dov writes this was, "because the rainy season had begun in Israel and the people who live on the streets remain without shelter during cold nights. At first, we opened up once a week, then twice, and now we have night shifts four to five times a week. This became possible because new volunteers from Messianic congregations have joined us, all united by the same goal - to help needy people. We are happy Aviv Center is a place where Israeli believers can actively share their faith and serve the needy in many practical ways. At present nine volunteer teams work together in Aviv Center. This is about 45 people from different Israeli congregations and rehab centers. Please keep praying for this ministry." For more information and for the prayer requests of this ministry, please read inside the Weekly Summary attachment    

Israel Pochtar of the Beit Hallel congregation in Ashdod writes this week about a new ministry they have launched for the hearing impaired and it is an outreach that many of the hearing impaired in the city and congregation have been made very glad by. Read more about it and about the couple who are leading this new outreach effort inside the Weekly Summary attachment        . They are also doing outreach with a team from Australia, hosting an Australia Night at the congregation that saw 72 non-believers come to take part in the event. Wow! A good time was had by all.  To learn more about the doings of this ministry, including their Aleph Courses to disciple people in different areas of life, read inside the Weekly Summary attachment  

There is one thing about the Beit Immanuel congregation in Jaffa: the come up with some dynamite ideas for bringing the generations together in greater understanding and appreciation of each other. You will want to read about this great idea of bringing the seniors together with the youth to take part in preparing a favorite family recipe together - something that happens rarely in our modern lifestyles. It was a great and you will want to read about it, as told by congregational leader David Lazarus, inside the Weekly Summary attachment 
               

Avi Mizrachi of the Adonai Roi congregation & Dugit outreach wants to thank you for your prayers for his dad who is doing much better and getting back to his normal routine. New on their prayer list, however, is the flood that wrecked havoc on their VIP Prayer Room - a pipe leak they are encountering resistance in getting insurance & landlord help with. They would appreciate your prayers for quick resolution and repairs.

Richard and Carolyn Hyde are about to depart for London and Wales (Feb 23- Mar 7). They are requesting prayers for "divine appointments on the streets, calling Jewish people to make Aliyah and sharing Messiah with whomever we can.  And we hope to reflect the love of G-d as we minister in churches.  Praise the L-rd for a Isaiah 61:1 and Luke 4:18 double anointing that breaks the yoke and sets the captives free!"

From Revive Israel and Asher Intrater, VIDEO Family of God | Asher shares on the three-dimensional pattern set by the Lord - The gospel, the kingdom government, and the family of God.  Also invitations to the VIDEO Esther Fast 2017 and the RESTORE Tikkun Family Conference. More details inside the Weekly Summary attachment or click the links

Revive also writes:  Discipleship Journey in Israel | This 8-week program (April 14 – June 8, 2017) organized and led by Chaim & Ruti Singerman (this is not a Revive Israel program, but we are helping get the word out) includes biblical teaching, excursions to key sites in Israel, and practical service within the local Messianic community and is designed for English-speaking believers of all ages. You will stay 4 weeks at the Jerusalem Hills Inn in the Jerusalem area, and connect with the Revive Israel team in the mornings for worship and teaching from local Messianic leaders, such as Asher Intrater and Dan Juster. The next 4 weeks you will be near the Sea of Galilee, staying at the Aliyah Return Center and working with Return Ministries. There you will help prepare rooms at Beit Zerah, a newly acquired facility in much need of renovations intended for Jews making Aliya.  Get contact information inside the Weekly Summary attachment              

Sally Shiff in Kfar Saba is the liaison and intercessor for the Hamaayan congregation.  She writes that the "prevailing theme" of the past 6 months of intercession "has been 'exposing corruption'. I prayed that in the national election of the US (God directed) and within 24 hours national corruption was exposed. Recently, our mayor here in Kfar Saba was arrested for corruption in our city (and 14 other officers). God is a righteous judge, and the people rejoice where there is a righteous standard coming from our leaders. God consistently impresses on me the responsibility of praying for our leaders, both in the government and congregation."  This is one of the ways God is using the believers in Israel to impact the integrity of their nation. Read more from Sally inside the Weekly Summary attachment including her plans for a speaking tour in the USA in late October

Did you know that Israel is doing more for Syrian refugees than like Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates? Ron Cantor of Messiah's Mandate writes about 3 Things Jews are Doing to Arabs will Shock You. He also takes on the seriously misguided statements by German Chancellor Merkel: Islam, not the cause of terror.  [This level of deception is stupefying!]

 From KehilaNews.com we've plucked out two features out of many more - the story of Israeli Messianic Artist Shoshana Silver: From darkness to light and how Israel's Messianic pro-Life group Be'ad Chaim is helpng Israeli mothers choose life

Maoz Ministries is conducting its board meetings prayer letter writer Katy tells us. The point is to review their 2016 activities and hear feedback from the board on how they are tracking with their #1 aim " to further our calling to Israel"...."Having Godly counselors, who are not involved in the day-to-day activities of Maoz, and who are wise and Spirit-led to look at what we do from the "mission" point of view is truly priceless.  And that's also why YOUR PRAYERS are so vital. PRAY for wisdom for the Maoz board, and our leaders in offices around the world. PRAY for us to be calling-driven and not agenda-driven."

Katy also writes about the meetings last week with Netanyahu and Trump and reflects on how "When the children of Israel crossed the Jordan into the Promised Land, God told them it will take time to possess the promise, and that He will drive out enemies little by little until Israelites are strong enough to overcome all of them. The same principle of taking over little by little applies to ministries—including Maoz."  Read more inside the Weekly Summary attachment
