An Update on our Grandson, Karl. Update on our grandson Karl 18 days from the accident. He is still in a coma and in ICU. He has been demonstrating deliberate movements which means his brain is communicating; his eyes are open a lot but he still is not seeing - although it is thought that he is tracking movement for a few seconds at a time. He is agitated by trachea tube and catheter at times, moving a lot. These are all signs that he is slowly waking up. Brain injuries are impossible for the doctors to call on how a person heals or how fast they will recover, or how much they will recover. I just thank God for all the prayers that have gone up from all the people on my Israelprayer list for Karl. We really needed you, and you were there for our need. Thank you. -Donna
Priority Prayer Focus
________________________________________
Although many are going through crisis situations with unsaved family members – several I have spoken with having head or brain injuries – I believe the Lord is using us in these “dire straits” to mid-wife strategic new life into the kingdom of the Lord…strategic to other family members also receiving the good news and turning to the Lord.
Even as there is great uncertainty about the future and dark clouds looming over most of the nations of the world at this time, there is an anchor we have in our souls that many will want to lay hold of in their own lives. Let us pray for our families as never before, that God would grant them the peace they crave in their lives and salvation to the uttermost.

Arrows from Zion
Strategically Aimed for the Lord’s Harvest in Israel
KEY PRAYER POINTS FOR PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION
________________________________________
When the press reports the news with a specific agenda, the result can no longer called journalism, but now bears the masked face of propaganda. It is precisely because the public generally believes news reporters relay the facts that makes propaganda reporters especially dangerous provocateurs. Pray for Yair Altman whose Ynet article “Teitel’s associates: He’s gone mad” clearly crossed the line from journalism to propaganda.
Pray for the next hearing date for Jack Teitel which is February 3rd and also the 18th birthday of Ami Ortiz, who is recovering from the bomb blast Teitel set two years ago that almost took Ami's life.
Pray that the ruse of “mentally unfit” to stand trial not to be accepted by the judges hearing the case. Pray for full and open accountability in the Israeli courts, that the facts be laid bare before the Israeli public.
Pray for the complete restoration of Ami Ortiz who is still living with 100 shards of metal and glass still lodged in his body and eyes, and scars from his neck to his feet, and the loss of three toes. For this, Jack Teitel should not get a get out of jail free pass. Cry out for justice in the Lord’s hearing!
Though Israel today is a spiritual desert with a few oases here and there in the Body of Israeli Believers in the Land, despite the opposition and persecution, Yeshua is blessing those that follow Him in Israel with the good news of reconciliation for their countrymen and for the nations of the world. “For in him you have been enriched in every way–in all your speaking and in all your knowledge” 1 Cor 1:5
One ministry noted this week, “The salvation of Israel is a controversial issue in modern Christian-Jewish relations. But, if the Gospel is “to the Jew first,” why are they last on most Christians’ list of priorities?
Another that, “God chose Israel to be His first-born son [among the nations]. (Ex 4:22) No other nation will receive or enter into its inheritance, which God may give, before or without Israel receiving and entering into hers/his. (Would Paul have called it “expedient” for the churches to contribute to the Body in Israel, if this were not so?)
Pray for the Messianic soldiers from all the congregations in Israel. These are young men and women, many straight out of high school, some serving in career positions in a land that is never able to be at rest, but must be ready at a moment’s notice. Pray for excellence, for what they cannot do in themselves, for grace from Yeshua within them to achieve.
Pray for the precarious situation going on in Lebanon on Israel’s northern border. The government is in flux and the terrorist group Hezballah is making moves to take over.
Pray for the believers in Lebanon – there still are some! Hold up their arms in prayer to sit in the secret place as watchmen on the walls of Lebanon. The destiny of a nation is with the remnant within it.
Pray for the Israeli believers who are serving the Lord’s purposes in every kind of role from civil rights attorneys to goat farm and cheese manufacturers. Pray that in the marketplace, the believers will all be shining examples of honor, integrity, excellence …and above all a life radiating with the Prince of Peace.
Pray for every court case that the Body in Israel is connected with – from those seeking to establish citizenship rights to those who are there as a result of the campaign of persecutors. Pray for those who stand before the human bar of justice – for the Supreme Judge to rule in their favor and justice prevail.
One of the senior elders in the Body in Israel, Avi, asks for prayer for his 83-year old father. There was no permanent damage but it is clear he must transition immediately to 24-hour care. Avi asks prayer for wisdom.
Another ministry to widows and orphans asks for prayer for her mother who fell and had a brain hemorrhage. She reports that God performed a miracle and also that her mother prayed for the Lord’s help and His salvation because of her dire situation. Her niece is also in the same hospital with a possible case of meningitis. Pray that what the enemy means for evil, God will turn to good – for us us who love the Lord and are called according to His purposes!
Thanks be to God for the ministry that asked prayer for their daughter who had surgery and was awaiting biopsy results. The tumor was deemed low grad malignancy and removed entirely. Pray also for the Holy Spirit to continue to speak spiritually to this daughter calling her, Come back, come back, O Israel.
Pray for “Y” who converted to Catholicism some years ago, but now in his old age is tormented by fears and torments of paranoia. Pray for the Lord to grant Y to hear and understand the parable of Matthew 18, and to aggressively begin to forgive everyone he has held indebted by offenses. Pray he will release all, and in turn be released back to stability of mind and emotions. It is not too late!
Pray for the ministry that is experiencing tensions within its fellowship. Pray that the spirits of offense and division be rooted out and the spirit of humility and brotherly love expand in that place. Pray for the shalom of the Lord to be upon them and grace to all the leaders guiding the flock.
Thank God for the lives that are being changed by the ministry of the Word of God and the leading of the Holy Spirit into the paths that make for peace in our lives. Thank God that He is well able to pick us up even out of the trash cans and set us on the Rock that gives us love, joy and peace in Him.
Thank God for the nations that are coming up to Jerusalem, to learn how to stand in agreement with heart of the Father for the Body of Messiah in Israel.
Thank God for the unity of the Body in Israel – in praying together, as well as the practical matters of connecting together for the whole of Body.
Thank God for the work of the Holy Spirit in the work of reconciliation going on between Palestinian Christians and Messianic Jews. This work is precious in the sight of those who are blessed to catch even tiny glimpses of what is going on. It is a game changer as it grows into a more visible work of the Lord.
Speak blessings on the Israeli ministries who are doing humanitarian works throughout Israel. They are reaching every possible group with the love shed abroad in their hearts – from terror victims to school children or Holocaust survivors in need of meals. Pray for blessings to be a blessing upon them.
