There has been little change in the condition of our grandson, Karl. Thanks for the continued prayers lifted for his awakening and full recovery, and for the work of faith in his parents who need so much grace in the waiting. Donna

In 2009, a prophetic intercessor from the Middle East wrote, “There are many "Hidden Agendas" that are active behind the scenes, as the enemy throws in the foreground different issues so that all, including the body of Christ, will be busy with such "Seen Agendas" while the Hidden Ones are operating actively. By the time we discover that we should have listened to God's voice and heard from Him, it may be too late.
“…In the book of 2 Samuel 15-16, when David was dethroned, everybody was thinking about how to deal with Absalom. It was only David who directed his prayers against Ahithophel as he knew that he was the one fueling the battle. The point is, David knew what he should pray for. He didn't pray about what was seen by everybody. Instead he prayed "O' Lord, turn Ahithophel's counsel into foolishness". He didn't move according to the seen agenda, he discerned the hidden ones.”
“He reveals deep and mysterious things and knows what lies hidden in darkness, though he himself is surrounded by light.” Daniel 2:22
Pray for the hidden agendas to be revealed that we may pray from Heaven’s perspective over Egypt. Pray also that while the world is concentrated on Egypt, that we do not lose sight of those moving in the shadows against the Lord’s people and purposes.

KEY PRAYER POINTS FOR PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION

A 24/4 Prayer & Praise house in Jerusalem has issued two videos on YouTube that will help you pray for Egypt. (Part I) (Part II) The pointers come out of the prophetic intercession that has been going on at Succat Hallel over the past few weeks.
An Egyptian believer files a report that disputes how the media are portraying the protests in Cairo. We have authenticated this is from a known Christian professor long associated with the Egyptian prayer movement. Read it online Egyptian Believer Disputes What the News Media is Portraying at Israel Watcher blog.
Eddie Santoro wrote a great perspective called What is going on in Egypt? Read it on Israel Watcher blog. The Egyptian uprising has turned out to be one of the most complex and confusing situations I have ever considered in 20 years of Israel Watching. Eddie always does a fantastic job of breaking down the political events that relate to Israel and this is no exception.
Three government psychiatrists have testified for the prosecution that Jack Teitel is mentally fit to stand trial for the murders and attempted murders he has confessed to – including the important admission that Teitel worked with Yad L’Achim and took orders from one of them.
Next hearing is 2/15 and Teitel’s THIRTEEN privately hired psychiatrists will tell why he is mentally UNfit to stand trial!!! Who is paying for all this? The young, inexperienced prosecutor is also calling Teitel’s mother and wife to testify that he is sane. How can this be good?
As the Ortiz family writes, “This battle will be won on our knees.”
Asher Intrater lists implications of a fall of the Egyptian government. None good for Israel or the world, for that matter. Pray for the turnaround today of the Obama administration to hold: Today they stopped pressuring Mubarak to leave immediately and conceded it best for him to stay up to the elections in the Fall. Bind the evil forces of Islamic jihad and pray for a release of revival and evangelism in Egypt.
A group of Christian Arab and Messianic Jewish believers in a northern city of Israel have been meeting for times of prayer together on a regular basis. This is more common for leaders than for congregants, as this group is mostly comprised. Pray for God’s blessing on their desire to cry out with one voice.
Messianics continue to form bonds with believers in Germany and in the Far East. These are two different kinds of ministry going on, but both are critical to the future. Pray for Divine connections of unbreakable bonds to be forged by all engaged in these important works.
Pray for the Gospel to be heard throughout the Middle East by broadcasters who are delivering the uncompromised good news to dry and thirsty peoples all along the Isaiah 19 highway.
One Israeli pastor in the Negev remembered a message from an Egyptian church leader in 1992 speaking on Isaiah 19: “This preacher spoke prophetically then that those who oppress Egypt (Is 19:20) are not Egyptians, but Arab Muslims who have come in.” He wrote, “After the gospel went out from Israel, many in Egypt became Christians, and the Copts today continue that heritage. The burden which these ‘oppressors’ bring will be used by the Lord to turn the Egyptians to call upon Him for a Savior and a Mighty Deliverer.”
While it appears some of Isaiah 19 is being fulfilled today, other parts may not be. Our prayer is that God will reveal to the hearing Body worldwide, how to pray in agreement with the Heavenly vision for Egypt and all the surrounding nations. As goes Egypt, so goes the Arab world.
At the start of the new year we hear from many of the ministries as they recount the past year and project toward the new year of their ministries. Subscribers may open and read those accounts which will be an encouragement to you that the Lord is indeed building His Living Temple in the Land of Israel.
Several ministries that were being supported primarily by denominational mission pledges are now losing those support means. Pray for the Lord to supply all their need according to His riches, by stirring up new sources of support for these ministry families.
Another ministry that was sharing its facility with another Tel Aviv congregation is ALSO losing its facility. The two have discussed going in together to secure a new facility for their Friday night and Saturday morning Shabbat services. Pray for God to provide a secure and affordable place to house their congregations and ministries.
The uprooting of ministries from facilities often means uprooting from homes, as well. One is losing a Guest House that served to pay for support ministries and outreaches. Please pray over those who are going through much upheaval, loss of resources and the little security that we treasure of having a place to call our own. These changes are hard on families. Speak grace upon them.
While it looks like we are losing ground, we declare that this is just the last ditch effort to us turn back from mighty turnarounds coming. Though the rain beats down, we shall not be moved!
When someone comes to the Lord it is something to rejoice about. When someone comes to the Lord and then passes into eternity shortly afterward – this is a place to shout about the mercies of the LORD our God. There is seed planted in many elderly Jewish and Arabs – call for it to bloom in faith before their end.
Thank God for the work done by the folks at the Caspari Media Review who follow what is written in the Hebrew publications related to our faith and then summarize those items weekly for English speakers. What a treasure trove of information they unearth for all of us who do not speak Hebrew.
One of the items Caspari featured in the Feb 3rd issue was a Haifa TV magazine which featured the life story of the pastor of the Carmel Congregation who was a Broadway actor before coming to know Yeshua and moving to Israel. “Yeshua covered me in light,” David Davis said. Read the full & surprising summary inside the Weekly Summary.
