Today, according to the Hebrew calendar, Israel celebrated 44 years of the reunification of Jerusalem to the State of Israel in the hard fought Six Day War of 1967. On June 7, 1967, a battalion of Israel Defense Forces paratroopers defeated Jordanian troops, liberating the Old City and reuniting east and west Jerusalem following 19 years of Jordanian occupation.
The Israeli Prime Minister is in agreement with that the Bible has to say: "The battle for Jerusalem is a battle for truth," Netanyahu began. "There can be no justice without truth.”
Luke 21:24 “….and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.”
Zechariah 8:3 Thus saith the LORD; I am returned unto Zion, and will dwell in the midst of Jerusalem: and Jerusalem shall be called a city of truth; and the mountain of the LORD of hosts the holy mountain.
Isaiah 25:7-8 And He will destroy in this mountain the face of the covering cast over all people, and the veil that is spread over all nations. He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord GOD will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the LORD hath spoken it. And it shall be said in that day, Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, and he will save us: this is the LORD; we have waited for him, we will be glad and rejoice in his salvation.
Jerusalem is not “the city of world’s three great religions” but it is the city of the great King – the King of Kings, Yeshua – who in the end shall be worshiped on that holy mountain.

Have you ever wondered what the full God-promised borders of Israel were?
No wonder there is such an Arab fixation on seeing Israel’s tiny foothold on the Promised Land ripped asunder! Is not Mohammad a false prophet if any portion of Israel exists in our day?Although the full-fillment of these promised borders can never come through the arm of man, neither can any arm of man remove Israel whom God has restored to the Promised Land. The promised borders shall also surely be delivered through the arm of the LORD when the LORD has been sanctified in the sight of the nations in Yeshua and His Holy Spirit has been poured out upon them.
Eze 39:25-29 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Now will I bring again the captivity of Jacob, and have mercy upon the whole house of Israel, and will be jealous for my holy name; After that they have borne their shame, and all their trespasses whereby they have trespassed against me, when they dwelt safely in their land, and none made them afraid. When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies' lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations; Then shall they know that I AM the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them unto their own land, and have left none of them anymore there. Neither will I hide my face any more from them: for I have poured out my spirit upon the house of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
This is the day of which Ezekiel wrote, the time for Israel to know the “I AM” the LORD.

Arrows from Zion are key prayer points that reflect the more detailed information in prayer letter excerpts Weekly Summary of Prayer Requests from Israeli Ministries. Meant to give subscribers inside information that cannot be shared in public forums, the Weekly Summary are actual prayer letter excerpts, along with photos from the ministries of Israel, links to important stories, and contact and donation information for the ministries.
On Tuesday June 7 from 10 PM to 10 AM, join with the Body in Israel meeting for a Night of Prayer to call upon God’s promise in Joel 2:28 to pour out His Spirit on all flesh. Inside the Weekly Summary are complete details, including a detailing of the vision and a times and topic guide for the 6 watches of the all night prayer vigil to be held on the eve of Shavuot/Pentecost. Believers from around the world are invited to join in agreement. (To subscribe write donna @ d10r10.com - remove spaces from the email address)
There is a greater spiritual stirring in Israel among the believers there, as Israel is made even more isolated among the nations in the midst of increasingly unstable and Israel-hostile neighbors. What we are hearing as the pulse of the Body in Israel is an even greater emphasis on crying out to the LORD for the promised SALVATION of His People Israel. In the biblical record, every season when God was about to advance His salvation plan, the enemy would rise up to prematurely snatch those souls from life. This is where Israel stands today: at the door of the season of Israel’s salvation, with the enemy stirring ancient hatreds to claim death for Israelis before LIFE can claim them. It is time to cry for the Lord to arise – and His enemies – the enemies of His WORD made flesh – be scattered.
The announcement comes from a Galilee ministry for another prayer and fasting day for later in the summer on the traditional Tisha B’Av memorial. This is a prayer and fasting day in traditional Judaism for the destruction of the first and second Temple, but this Messianic call is for the purposes of seeking God for Israel’s present precarious situation. More details inside the attached Weekly Summary.
Pray for the quick healing of Lura Beckford’s broken foot. She is wheelchair bound until it is fully healed, and this is a complication to the Beckfords as Eddie is still under house arrest imposed by the courts in all the harassment cases that have been falsely filed by anti-missionary religious zealots.
Pray for multiplied fruit with the Israeli ministry team and among the Nigerians who came to faith during the meetings. Pray also for the Tikkun Israeli leadership team which is headed to the U.S. for annual meetings in the congregations they began in. Prayer for those who stay behind on the home front.
From time to time we ask for prayers for Israeli ministry leaders who are on short notice forced to relocate their homes and ministry/congregational facilities. Often this comes as a result of pressures on landlords by traditional religious groups who oppose and harass the followers of Yeshua in Israel. We have such a request this week, as one settles into a new home and another begins a search for a new home.
Whether it is ministry to heal the wounded Body in Israel among women or in personal evangelism and outreach, there are many small ministries operating throughout Israel. Some in small home group settings providing a local assembly for a congregational-less village, or for Christian Arabs, or for Russian-speakers, or other such groups. Pray for these works of the LORD which are no less important than the larger ministries and congregations.
Pray for the believers in the nations to catch the vision the Apostle Paul worked to instill in ALL the first century churches under his ministry: supportive role of the Gentile Church toward the Israeli Body of Messiah. Romans 15:25-27 But now I go unto Jerusalem to minister unto the saints. For it has pleased them of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor saints which are at Jerusalem. It has pleased them truly; and their debtors they are. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, their duty is also to minister unto them in carnal things.
Congratulations to the Ferguson family of Yeshua Israel Ministries – as well as the Sorko-Ram grandparents of Maoz Ministries – who welcomed a new son into their family that now numbers five: Kobi, Shani and three big sisters to dote on the new baby brother. Mazal tov!
The Segal’s of Joseph’s Storehouse have set their sights on upping the number of children they are able to bless in this their 13th year of the Pack to School program. Each year with the help of donors the Storehouse is able to provide Israeli school children with backpacks filled with school supplies. This year they hope to distribute 13,000 packs. More details inside the Weekly Summary.
Many Israeli ministries encourage the Messianic Jews of the world to return to the Jewish homeland. As one reminded this week, “The LORD builds up Jerusalem; He gathers together the outcasts of Israel” writing: Pray for a continuing stream of Jews to get connected to their roots and realize that Israel is their homeland and this is where they belong.
Pray for continued rains – which have been greater this year but Israeli is still in a serious water shortage situation.
Pray for Prime Minister Netanyahu – who even though he has not come to faith yet – is nevertheless standing in the anointing from God upon the office of the Prime Minister of Israel. There are conditional and unconditional purposes of God in these end times as God has re-gathered Israel to their ancient homeland for the purpose of salvation. Pray for Netanyahu to have the wisdom and favor of God to lead the nation well through all the conditional situations Israel must grapple with.
The Yeshua’s Harvest DVD about the Body of Messiah in Israel was shown in an hour long broadcast on GOD TV last Sunday, May 29. Tell your friends and pray for the re-airings on June 7th at 9 PM, midnight and 3 AM (consult the GOD TV schedule – as we have no idea what time zone that is for, likely the Pacific U.S. time zone).
