Do not be deceived, God will not be mocked;
for whatsoever a man sows, that shall he ultimately reap.

Galatians 6:7

Many are they who say of me, "There is no help for him in God." Selah
But You, O LORD, are a shield for me,
My glory and the One who lifts up my head.

Psalm 3:2-3

One aspect of the warfare over Israel is that calling to account that we all face – are we seeking the favor and justice from on high, while we are delivering far below that to our fellow servants. To be the chosen of God is to be called to come up higher in reflecting His righteousness.

We as believers in Yeshua – and Israel, as the chosen of God – must search our own hearts that we are truly doing unto others as we would have others do to us. Salvation will not be far behind when Israel searches her heart to uphold true righteousness.

Pray for the leadership in the Israeli Ministries to receive the clear will of God in the question of appealing the unjust verdict handed to them in the Beer Sheva congregation attack case. Pray for Divine wisdom as the repercussions of the verdict will surely impact the whole community of faith in Israel. When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked bears rule, the people mourn. Prov 29:2

Pray for the nations who are leveling an unjust verdict against the Israeli commando attack on the “Free Gaza” flotilla. Pray for the lies of the aggressors to be exposed and not embraced by the world community. Pray for hypocrisy to be exposed and the innocent to be vindicated. Therefore, whatever you want men to do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. Mt 7:12

Pray for the upcoming annual youth summer camp, “Harvest” (Katzir). The theme this year is “I will burn like a torch” Is 62:1. Pray especially for the young adults who are the counselors, small group and workshop leaders for the youth – anointing, provision, favor, logistics and LASTING IMPACT.

Pray for Ami Ortiz who just underwent his 13th surgery to repair damages from the package bomb left for his family in 2008. Ami will soon undergo the 14th surgery to restore an ear drum – expectations are not high, but Ami is a walking miracle of God anyway, so believe God for the surgery to 100% succeed.

Pray for the Ortiz family who live in the same area as one of the men who tried to harm them. In a ‘chance’ meeting Leah was able to speak with the sister-in-law of Jack Teitel, who said her family were not raised to hate and knew nothing of Teitel’s activities. Pray that the grace Leah demonstrated to this woman would be a fruitful seed in the woman’s heart. Should you not also have had compassion on your fellow servant, just as I had pity on you? Mt 18:33

July 14th is the new date for the hearing about Ami’s attempted murderer Jack Teitel’s mental fitness to stand trial. Pray for those who would like to close their eyes and ears from the truth to be given a spirit of courage to uphold righteous judgment and give no place for evil to hide. Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; and hid, that shall not be known. Mt 10:26

Pray those who would close their eyes in Jihad Denial – “See no jihad, hear no jihad” sums up the current U.S. administration national security approach which also jeopardizes Israel. Pray for a spirit of courage to uphold righteous judgment be released and for our leaders to give no place for evil to hide.

Pray for Mosab Hasan Yosef, the son of a Hamas founder/spiritual leader who acted in counter-terrorism ops for the Israelis. The US Homeland Security is trying to deport him as terrorist threat. Hearing is WED 6/30 8AM. Pray for the judge to spare this young man and grant asylum! Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Is 5:20

Pray for the son-in-law of Rick Ridings (Succat Hallel) in Jerusalem. Adam, a worship leader, has been struck with sudden 80% hearing loss that doctors have said they can do no more for him. Pray for a miracle.

Pray for the “unto Him” Elav youth conference in Tel Aviv July 3-5. Pray for the Lord to move mightily in the lives of those attending.

Pray for this season of change that we would be alert, full of the spirit of God and able to move at the sound of His still, small voice of direction in our lives. Pray for everyone to take up the position He has called each one to stand in – with great expectation for good, even if years of discouragement are behind us. For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. Is 60:2

Thank God for how God is moving on the people to reveal Yeshua and to touch those in great need – whether Jewish, Arab, Druze, Ethiopian, Bedouin – the Spirit of God is touching hearts and lives in Israel. Pray for the Body as they take in these precious ones to raise up to spiritual maturity.

There are many difficult family situations in the lives of new believers. Pray for the Holy Spirit to surround them, pour out grace and wisdom, and to meet the needs so that salvation will multiple in the families. Pray for hatred to be overcome with love, and the windows of heaven be opened to supply needs.

Pray that we and our spiritual allies would throw off passivity and become Divinely pro-active in both the spiritual and the natural realm. The time to step into our roles as salt and light is upon us.

Arrows from Zion


In the midst of shakeups and shakedowns, the kingdom of the LORD is being advanced in Israel & the purposes of God are NOT threatened by ANY of the tumults of our times. Thank God He is the LORD that is not in the wind, nor in the earthquake, but in the still, small voice.

Thank God that even as tensions mount with bad news multiplying, so also the Good News is multiplying
– bearing eternal fruit in our families, in our neighborhoods, on our jobs and snatching many from the fires of misguided lives. Thank God for salvations in Israel.

Pray for the strengthening of those being discipled and groomed to stand in leadership positions in the congregations of Israel
; Ask the LORD to anoint the teachers and to bring forth each of the 5-fold ministry anointing within the Body in Israel – mature, grounded & bold in faith.

Pray for congregations in transition with leaders and congregants coming and going – for peaceful and mutually beneficial changes to prevail.

In the summertime, children and teens are given many opportunities to be with peers from the believing community across Israel. Many are the only believers in their schools so this is prime time for the Lord to minister to them while knitting them together in the bonds of our faith.

Pray for Israeli ministries who continue to suffer from the decline in value of dollars and Euros. Pray for a spirit of generosity to be upon the Church toward the Body in Israel – for the LORD to release blessings to be a blessing.

Ask the Lord for healing to be sent among all those in the Israeli Body that need a touch from the Lord – that healing would spring forth speedily for each and every one.

Thank God for all He is doing in the outreaches and ministries to distribute to the needy, the elderly, the Holocaust survivors, the drug and alcohol addicted, those with unwanted pregnancies – the Body in Israel is reaching the hopeless with a message of hope & life.

Pray for Israeli ministry leaders as they seek the LORD and consensus for believers in Israel even though they come from many streams of faith. The issues on the table impact the spiritual health as well as the physical safety of the Body in Israel. Pray for God to lead & unity to prevail.

Between the extremes of the religious and the secular, the Body of Messiah are re-presenting the ways and the life of Yeshua to Israelis. Pray God will give eyes to see and hears to hear, to discern between the choices and grace to choose Yeshua’s life.

Pray for the protection of the Body in Israel from those that are moved by the spirits that opposed Yeshua and His disciples in their day. For grace and wisdom to even the youngest child in the believing community against the wiles of the enemy.

Pray for wisdom from Heaven to prevail in the Israeli government and military and policy makers as Israel faces down the demonic attempt to de-legitimize Israel and break the Gaza blockade. Pray for the forces behind the attempt that have been uncovered to be widely exposed.

The ministry of reconciliation is a major focus of the believers in Israel, whether between Arab and Jewish believers or the believers in Israel and their brothers in Germany and Poland. Pray for God’s will in these reconciliation efforts to be realized and blessings be multiplied as a result.

In the relations between unbelievers in Israel, tensions have increased between Arab and Jew. Only the Prince of Peace can fully resolve the issues that separate, but ask the Lord to restrain the violence and limit the tensions and strains.

Pray for the LORD to bless the Gardens of Life forest – a parcel of land which has been given to bless the Body in Israel. Pray for believers who desire to re-forest Israel, to do so through the Gardens of Life meyuseff@gmail.com

Pray for the young men and women from the Body in Israel who are serving in the IDF,
that they may be leaders within their ranks in valor, integrity and faith that represents Yeshua flawlessly to their peers.

Pray for the Lord’s blessing to be upon all the Messianic Guest Houses, Hostels, Bed & Breakfasts throughout the tourist season. Blessings upon the livelihoods of the believers throughout Israel.

Speak anointing and favor upon all the Israeli ministries traveling in the nations. Traveling is difficult – so pray for hosts that will heap hospitality upon them and open hearts in all the places their feet shall tread.

Pray for those who are writing, and for those who are translating books that will help to minister to the people in Hebrew.

Myths About the Flotilla
Article by Scott Morgan for Shemen Sasson Congregation in Jerusalem:

I have heard it said that you should never let the facts get in the way of a good argument. That is the case with much of the media coverage of the recent attempts by groups to break the blockade of Gaza set up by Israel. Instead of the facts, there are many half-truths and myths being discussed as a result of the Israeli Commando boarding of the Mavi Marmara. Let’s take a look at some of the myths surrounding Israel and the humanitarian flotilla.

Original Intent
The Art of Rewriting Jewish…er, American History

by Shani Ferguson for Yeshua Israel

“There are many organizations out today trying to correct propaganda against Israel in regards to the last century or so, but there are few voices out there correcting the misinformation that has been imbedded in Jewish culture over the past 4000 years….The first pitfall in the Oral Law is that it burdens Jewish people with additional unnecessary life consuming rules. The second pitfall is that religious leaders mainstreamed that the original document – the Torah – should not be studied without the Oral Law. The assumption is that commoners may come up with heresy if they read God’s original words.”

Therefore the LORD has recompensed me according to my righteousness, According to the cleanness of my hands in His sight. With the merciful You will show Yourself merciful; With a blameless man You will show Yourself blameless; With the pure You will show Yourself pure; And with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd. For You will save the humble people, But will bring down haughty looks. For You will light my lamp; The LORD my God will enlighten my darkness. Ps 18:24-28

Pray for Israel to connect the spiritual dots between how a blameless, merciful, pure and humble minority in their midst is targeted unfairly and barely protected against persecution, and how that same set of circumstances is being played out on the world stage against Israel.

“With the pure You will show Yourself pure.” Yeshua said to Israel, You will not see Me again until you say, Blessed is he that comes in the name of the Lord. Who is the “he that comes in the name” in this verse if not His Body in the earth? He is the Head, but we are the feet of them that bring good news.

The hypocrisy of nations is never demonstrated more blatantly as when Israel is internationally condemned for effective defenses countering the wrath of radical Islam for the very existence of the Jewish state. No other issue among the nations repeatedly results in darkness being championed over good among the nations.

Pray for those who are deceived by the ferocity of Muslim indignation to be set free to SEE the honest facts. Pray for those held by deceiving spirits to be broken free in Light.

Pray for Israelis and all Jews who are emotionally beaten up by generations of facing what is to them an inexplicable force of hatred for the Jewish people. We know it is the enemy trying to swallow them up before God can demonstrate His glory within them – so pray for them as if for the fatherless and the orphan. You play a critical part in their rescue and ultimate triumph in Messiah Yeshua.

When a person is abused, mistreated and wounded, in time these also become abusers who wound and mistreat others. Pray for the cycle of prejudice and wrath to be broken in the lives of this generation in Israel. Pray for true justice to be upheld in Israeli courts and law enforcement, and society.

Pray FOR those leaders in the Israeli ministries, who seek to please the Lord more than the people, and who walk in integrity before God, and boldness in the Holy Spirit to make a stand. Pray FOR Howard Bass and all the congregations in Israel who through the lack of uprightness of a court ruling have been made more vulnerable to persecution by groups that exist for that very purpose.

Cover all the ministries in Israel for protection against harm – also lifting up the coming return to court of Jack Teitel who has confessed to the murder of Palestinians and the attempted murder of Ami Ortiz. With the pure You will show Yourself pure; And with the devious You will show Yourself shrewd. Ps 18:26

Pray for the Israelis and Germans who are coming together in the Name of the LORD to prevail against gates of hell set up over regions of nazi strongholds. Pray for a powerful anointing to go forth for a release of generations held captive by hell in mental strongholds and all the accompanying torments. Great release resulting in abiding fruit!

Pray for those Israelis participating in the German events beginning next week – for healing to spring forth quickly and opposition of enemy forces to be broken. The gates of hell shall NOT prevail.

Thank God for sparing our sister Ruth in Nahariya who suffered a massive heart attack in May. Thank God for Pastor Najeeb who recognized the signs of her distress and got her to ER. PS 118:7 says, “The LORD is for me among those who help me.”

Thank God that even out of daily, up close and personal harassment for 7+ years running, a pastor’s family in Arad reports two people from the community – one Orthodox onlooker and one person who participated in doing wrong to the believers stepped out to apologize and ask forgiveness. Praise God for light banishing darkness.

Thank God for the ministry and experience of Israelis who recently went to minister in the Ukraine. Pray for a hundred fold reproduction of fruit in the lives of the young Israelis and in the lives of those in many former USSR cities who responded to the beckoning call of Yeshua. Pray for the pastors in those cities to be blessed as they minister in places where KGB spy on congregations.

Pray for healing to go out over the Body in Israel as many are struggling with health issues, some mysterious viruses, some threatening yet to be born life in the womb. Pray for mighty signs of healing to be released in the name which EVERY KNEE must bow – YESHUA.

Ask for blessing upon those Israelis traveling in the nations, for the favor of God and man to be upon them; and for the hearts of the people to be opened to the visions for reaching the lost of in Israel – whether of the Tribe, the Cousins, the Druze, Bedouin or any number of peoples in the Land.

Pray for the leaders in Israel as they contemplate the next step in the case of the Beer Sheva congregation – whether to appeal the lower court ruling. No one was hurt & no one died; but the truth was hurt and a little more justice died in Israel for followers of Yeshua. Please keep this in prayer.

Pray for those tours of Israel conducted by believers who are purposing to connect with the Body in Israel, to raise awareness among Christians that there is a vital, growing Body of believers in the Land again – more than at any time in history since Jesus Himself walked there. Pray more groups follow suit to open eyes to the marvelous thing the Holy Spirit is doing even the fulfilling of EZ 37:14.

Jewish Roots: Reverse Responsibility
by Asher Intrater

“The Messianic Jewish movement is called to be a source of holiness, purity, integrity, faithfulness, dedication, humility, and honesty to the international Church. Instead we have too often just given excuses for being carnal; we have let our traditions cover up for a lack of holiness. Let us take up our mantle to restore moral values and purity of motives to the greater community of faith, instead of peddling the ministry. Let us become a sanctifying influence to the Church.” http://www.revive-israel.com/

Israeli PM Netanyahu: ‘this was no Love Boat’ Continue to pray for Israel in the crisis of Islamist enemies using flotillas as a ‘battering ram’ to break the blockade of Hamas terrorist-run Gaza. For public cover, the boats are claiming to be “humanitarian aid” but the true agenda is to attempt to open a seaport where weapons may flow freely into Gaza.

The supporters of organizations participating in the flotilla say they are going to keep the boats coming until Israel is forced to give in to their demands but Israel cannot give in to their demands. Egypt has been working with Israel to cut off the flow of weapons into Gaza through the land corridor, but now the sea campaign aims to punch a giant hole in Israel’s national defense.

Pray that liars, hypocrites and unholy alliances to be exposed to the light and proven links in the chain of evil companions to be demonstrated at work in this giant deception being pulled on the world. Pray for clear lines of division to be drawn between good and evil, between right and wrong. Pray for the uninformed, to be made informed; Pray that passivity and apathy among God’s people to be thrown off.

It is time to step up to the responsibility we have to be salt and light in a world darkened by evil liars.

The biggest open door for tyranny is for God's people to be passive. – Rick Joyner

Number one on our prayer agenda is the injustice that Israeli courts have imposed upon the victims of religious persecution.
Pray for the Beer Sheva congregation who have been ordered by the court to pay their persecutors $40,000.00 by Friday (6/11) or face additional monetary penalties.

Even as Israel fights unjust rulings in the world courts, an Israeli court judgment has been issued that will undoubtedly increase persecution of the indigenous believing community. We must rouse ourselves to prayer and to action on behalf of the Body in Israel, our spiritual brothers.

Holding Israel accountable in how they treat our Jewish brothers and sisters in the Lord Yeshua while at the same time challenging the unjust judgments of the world against Israel are NOT IN CONFLICT.


We must stand for righteousness on every level and if we do it with an upright godly spirit, anti-Semitism WILL NOT BE RELEASED against unsaved Israel in the process.

In battered wife syndrome, a woman may not tell anyone about escalating violence against her because she is keeping the family shame secret…often her secret dies with her. Pray for the Body to be transparent about incidents of persecution with those of the Body who WILL pray and support.

It is not right that even Messianic shepherds outside of Israel do not appreciate the extent of persecution against Israeli believers. The apostle Sha’ul (Paul) said, For we would not, brethren, have you ignorant of our trouble which came to us, that we were pressed out of measure, above strength, insomuch that we despaired even of life…. You also helping together by prayer for us.

Pray for the believers in Arad who are really suffering from being in an area of concentrated ultra-Orthodox population with nothing better to do than persecute believers day & night. Pray for the congregations there – supernatural grace from the Throne of Grace Himself.

LIES are coming out like a flood against the righteous…surely you’ve noticed? Pray for deceiving spirits to be exposed by the LIGHT and for every tongue that rises in condemnation of the righteous to be rendered futile, fruitless and powerless. Enemies who have been undercover, fully exposed.

Pray for each and every ministry out among the nations bringing the good news that God is indeed moving in Israel and true to His Word salvation is blossoming on the vine of His planting! Pray for open eyes, hearts and minds to what many have NOT be expecting. Favor granted & released upon them.

While Gaza is spotlighted, let us remember that Hezballah on the northern border of Israel is also an Iran-related threat to Israel. Iran is at the center of these summer initiatives….But none of them are out of reach of our God. Pray for the safety and victory over their enemies for Israel; wisdom for Netanyahu.

As Israeli citizens take stock of how overwhelmingly world public opinion is against them, pray that they would turn their hearts to the living God and He would reveal the identity of His Salvation to them. None comes to the Father except He reveal the Son to them.

Seeds of the gospel and salvation are being planted by Israeli Jews in the Ukraine while KGB agents spy openly on the crowd to see if any respond. Pray for those who are receiving in secret to be disciple away from the prying eyes of government police. For much fruit to be borne and nourished to maturity.

Pray also for the assembling together of German and Israeli ministries in Saxony this summer. As the participants, we also believe the key role of this two together in restoring, revealing and releasing God’s word into the nations. May the Lord fulfill all His intentions in bringing these together in unity.

The 24/7 House of Prayer in Jerusalem, Succat Hallel, is asking for prayer as they count down to their 2010 “Elav” (“Unto Him”) conference. Youth from Israel and the nations come to minister to the Lord.
Pray also for the Ridings’ son-in-law & worship leader who suffering from a sudden mysterious hearing loss.

Pray for the ministry couple – an Australian married to an Israeli - who is having an appeal hearing on his right to his age pension. The hearing is July 9th. Pray God will release what is his due and needed for their living support.

Pray for seed planted by the Israeli ministries among unsaved family members and friends during the Shavuot (Pentecost) holiday. Pray for the outreaches – many extra summer outreaches are in full swing. Pray for growth in quality and quantity in the ministries from border to border.

Pray for lives to touched, turned around and transformed in all the ministries that are working on the streets of Israel – especially reaching those who are down and completely counted out according to worldly standards. Thank God He is able to transform the messiest of us and set us upright & glowing!

There are so many thirsty people, dying for the refreshing news of healing, deliverance, sanity, stability, hope, a future, a reason to smile, another person that actually cares, a love that doesn’t let go – no matter what. We have that. People are dying to know what we have.

Pray for a release in every believer who has been held back by anything from being who God has called them to be. We are nothing in ourselves and it is not by our own power, but He has freed is by His love so we can be instrumental in freeing others. It is our mission in this life and we are free to do it.

And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant to Your servants, that with all boldness they may speak Your Word, By stretching forth Your hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of Your holy child Yeshua. Acts 4: 29-30

Be still before the LORD and wait patiently for him; do not fret when men succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret-it leads only to evil. For evil men will be cut off, but those who hope in the LORD will inherit the Land. Psalm 37:7-9

While the manufactured “crisis” of the flotilla has captured the full attention of everyone interested in Israel, another deeper crisis – one with far reaching spiritual ramifications has unfolded in Israel. Pray for spiritual wisdom to be poured out & priorities put in God’s order.

A verdict of “innocent” has been handed down by Judge Iddo Ruzin in the Beersheva lawsuit against the Chief Sephardic Rabbi Yehuda Deri, and the anti-Messianic organization, Yad L'Achim. This non-accountability verdict takes all restraints off religious persecution in Israel.

Howard Bass writes: We always believed and still believe
and accept, that the verdict is the Lord's, and it is for us to discern what He is saying to us through it.

Israelprayer notes: Serious Ramifications in the Beer Sheva Verdict Extend to the Messianic Jewish Community throughout Israel

Israelprayer notes:
In their own arrogant words: “Yad L’achim has set up stations throughout Israel to gather a million signatures demanding revision of the present law protecting the public against unwelcome missionary activities. … a team of three first-rank attorneys in Israel have authored and edited the suggested amendment to the 1977 law. …This amendment would end missionary activities, which ironically are now permitted under the present law, which only bans apostatizing minors or bribing adults to convert with money or gifts.” Read their full press release

In the court case of religious terrorist Jack Teitel, an extension has been granted to the District Court Psychiatrist until July 14th. An earlier finding of the DCP was that Teitel was not mentally fit to stand trial. If this is the finding again 7/14, Teitel will be insulated from standing to account for cold blooded religious terrorism. Pray for the Spirit to give you utterance in intercession.

Praise God for the complete healing of Ami Ortiz from every wound, internal and external that he has received at the hands of the religious hatred that is fueled in a segment of the Israeli population against Jews who believe in Yeshua. Pray for the contrast between Light & darkness to be seen by Israelis.

Continue to pray for the Israeli Ministries as they are out in the nations telling the great things that the LORD is doing in Israel. Pray for hearts to be lit on fire with the good news of the kingdom expanding throughout the coasts and borders of Israel – and in neighboring ME Muslim nations as well!

Pray for each Israeli believer who are carrying the good news of the Messiah – the One expected by Israel to heal the sick and deliver the captives – the kingdom of heaven has drawn near and at the Word of His disciples, it is being brought into the very lives of Israelis desperate for Him.

The Global Day of Prayer was also observed in Nazareth – the hometown of Yeshua/Jesus – by Arab Christians and Messianic Jews who came together as one to appeal to heaven. Let these pictures release your prayers http://ebca.weebly.com/news-and-events.html

A former bodyguard of Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon is now a Messianic Jew with a passion for evangelism and a new congregation in Israel. Pray over the newly started congregation, for blessing and favor upon this “mighty man of valor” who has become a leader of sheep in Israel.

Pray for those who are “discipling Israelis in an atmosphere of revival” - “Many of our team had never laid hands on people but God moved mightily through them – some with demons were delivered and dozens refreshed and empowered by the Holy Spirit” (Israelis ministering in the Ukraine)

Pray that the children and grandchildren of the believers in Israel will accept Yeshua as their Savior and Lord, and will walk in obedience to His Word all the days of their lives - NOT depart from that faith.

Pray for their teenagers to stand against worldly peer pressure. PRAY for their children serving in the army to stand strong in their faith, even in the face of ridicule or harassment.

Pray for health and resources to be in the tents of
all those who love the LORD and are called according to His purposes in Israel. That favor with men and God would rest upon each one, and that everything they put their hands to would be blessed.

Pray for any who are wounded and walking in a self-image of victimhood to receive the deep and full healing touch of the LORD with the revelation of their personal worth in His eyes eradicating whatever experiences have shaped their mindset into that of a victim and not of the victor He is calling us to be.

Pray that setbacks do not cause any to halt in pressing forward in the good fight we have been given. If God be for us, who can be against us?

Pray that even when our ‘families’ are turned away from us, that we continue the good fight for their souls. That just because lawlessness abound, that our love does not turn cold toward those God has positioned us to stand for as the enemy contests for their souls. We shall reap if we faint not.

Pray for the Messianic attorneys who are fighting the good fight for religious freedom and pure justice for the followers of Yeshua in the Land of the Messiah.
