As an Ethiopian Israeli minister said: “We are convinced that Yeshua's message is not about avoiding conflict or confrontation, but about reaching out to others. To isolate ourselves and live in an individual bubble or even a community bubble is to miss entirely the plan that God has for us as believers.”

Let this mind be in you, which was also in Messiah Yeshua. Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made Himself of no reputation, and took upon Himself the form of a servant…For it is God which works in you both to will and to do of His good pleasure….Holding forth the word of life. Philippians 2:1-3, 13, 16.

Arrows from Zion

The end of the summer heat wave is broken; now despite predictions of a dry winter, join in praying for God to grant Israel a miracle of an abundant rainy season to replenish much needed water supplies. Pray for natural and spiritual rains to fall unexpectedly in plenty this season.

Read today that Western Christians donate 90% of the 2.5% of their income to their own local church. If that figure is true, can you imagine what percentage of the leftover is donated to the indigenous Israeli ministries? Seems worthy of becoming a prayer point for the foreseeable future…especially in these days when everyone is hurting – even the biggest ministry names.

Israeli ministries met together recently and testimony after testimony between these leaders showed that there is a new level of openness to the gospel among Israelis. God promised to return with mercies on Israel, opening the eyes that had been blinded. This is that and we get to pray into the harvest.

We don’t think of Israel as being a “melting pot” but indeed it is with Jews from nations the world over and the Body in Israel is doing outreach among the various communities, Russian , Ethiopian, Sephardic – from the north, south, east & west they’ve come. Now may blind eyes see Messiah by revelation!

Did you know that nearly 23.6% of the people in Israel and some 35.9% of its children lived in poverty conditions? That’s why the indigenous Body of Messiah are doing such important humanitarian outreach in the name of Yeshua. Let’s not forget to help those who help others in HIS name.

One apostolic Israeli brother speaks of how there were attacks on the pastors in Israel this past year, and how Teamwork, Training and Teachability provide a hedge of spiritual protection. May all the ministers receive those things that protect, preserve and proliferate the life of Yeshua among us.

Pray for the Beckfords who are back in Israel after a 5 month tour. Their next court date on the house arrest is Sunday, Oct 10….which is also their wedding anniversary. Pray that they will have two excellent reasons to celebrate at the end of the day!

The news from Arad is both good and bad – the several congregations sharing the same facility to meet in are now without a place to meet. It is common for believers to lose their rental homes and congregational facilities to persecution. But some key opposition there are repenting & asking forgiveness also. Pray for a permanent facility that no man can kick them out of.

The gospel in Israel is being carried person to person – the opportunities of daily life are seeing the Light of Yeshua shining through individual lives. No big stadium meetings, but the Messiah is revealing Himself in His servants and it is a powerful testimony to hungry hearts. Pray for the harvest.

After putting the finishing touches on their latest CD project, Shani Sorko-Ram Ferguson who is 2 months pregnant, began to experience pains like labor pains. The hospital says baby is fine & can find no reason for the pains. Pray for the Fergusons – for God to perfect that which is within the womb.
