Priority Prayer Focus
The sense we have over the past several days is like the teaching that David Davis at the HaCarmel Assembly preached last Shabbat, and uploaded to Facebook today (Tuesday): we are treading “A Way We Have Never Been Before”.
We’ve never been this way before so that makes it imperative that we trust where God is leading us and that the things along the way will work together for our good. Therefore, let’s pray for the whole Body of Messiah in Israel to enter into deep levels of trusting God and overcoming any of those hidden pockets of the heart where our trust is not quite full. As an honest man said to Yeshua, “Lord, I believe; help my unbelief!"

Praise Report
The praise report this week is, of course, the news that Jack Teitel – the man who tried to murder a Messianic family in Ariel but blew up their 15-year old son, Ami Ortiz, with a package bomb – has been held fully accountable in the Israeli courts today, April 9, 2013. Teitel has received two life sentences plus 30 years.
Ami’s mom sent me this email this morning: “Reporters asked him if he regretted his acts and he said ‘not at all’ that he was a servant of HaShem and given the opportunity he would do it again. I said to the Israeli press that he is completely unrepentant, and is a person filled with hatred and Hell (sounds better in Hebrew than English) and in that condition he needs to sit in jail until the end of his life. But between us, we continue to pray, and we pray the testimony will not end here.”
The Israeli judges that passed two life sentences on Jack Teitel and called him out as depraved, cold blooded murderer that he is have spoken for the State of Israel. Justice has prevailed - for Ami and for all of you in the Body in Israel. This has to have a spiritual impact, for Israel has chosen righteously to protect you all from religious murderers like Teitel.
We have mainly been concerned with justice for Ami and for the state protection of the Israeli Messianic community, but this murder trial was not just about Ami. By Teitel grouping together his victims as he did - Palestinian, Messianic and Liberal Left - he was saying that in Israel the views of his ilk trumped even the lives of all of you. That had to be put down officially by Israel, and thank God these Israeli judges did.

Arrows from Zion
Strategically Aimed for the Lord’s Harvest in Israel
Monday April 8th was Holocaust Remembrance
Day. The Israeli Independence Day is
Monday April 15th.
Annually Israelis move from the tears and ashes of the Holocaust to God raising up the Dry Bones the prophet Ezekiel saw in a vision: a valley full of bones that came together, bone to bone until they were standing on their feet and God began to put muscle, ligaments and skin upon them. I never noticed this before, but this re-birth of the nation of Israel that Ezekiel saw in a vision was not called “an exceeding great army” until after the prophesying for the Holy Spirit to enter into them to give them true life. The “exceeding great army” is a spiritual army that is indwelt by the Holy Spirit of Messiah abiding within Israelis. We are seeing that “exceeding great army” growing in numbers before our very eyes today in the spiritual Kingdom in Israel.

Ron Cantor has written a wonderful article filled
with great insight, clarity and wisdom
called How
Adolf Eichmann Brought Healing to Israel. If you ever wondered why the Jews of Europe
did not fight back against the Nazis, you need to read this article. Did you know that many Israelis of the 1950's
and 60's also wondered that same thing?
Shira Sorko-Ram of Maoz Ministries also has an article out: Understanding the Holocaust Is Understanding Israel

One
thing to note in our prayers: Each year
the Israeli public (in addition to dealing with whatever fearful things are
threatening in current events) ride a roller coast of emotion between Holocaust
Remembrance Day and Israel Independence Day.
It is the low of lows to the high of highs with plenty of threatening
realities sandwiched in between the news.
Pray for the emotional roller coaster to stop at the feet of Yeshua for
many Jews. This is the season for the
harvest.
Last
week an amazing testimony came in from one of the Israeli ministries, the
Meyuseff’s of Gideon’s Army. Like I
wrote to them when I asked permission to publish on my blog, "Truly
incredible all the things we go through.
We often look to others as if we are the biggest losers in the world but
God has other ideas about us. Thank God,
when He has His hand on us whether we are abased or abound, all things work
together for good for those who love God and are called according to His
purposes!" This is a testimony
about persevering in faith...and it also dovetails into a connection to the
famous Israeli spymaster, Eli Cohen.
Read An Amazing Personal Testimony of an Israeli Ministry
Leon Mazin (Return to Zion Center in Haifa) has a ministry school to build up Israeli believers into strong leaders. It is the Haifa Institute of Theology and one of the teachings that is available in three languages (Russian, Hebrew and English) is featured here on Oasis Media. Follow this link to hear Eitan Shishkoff in Lesson 4 of “He Calls Us Forward”
Inside the Weekly Summary are excerpts from David Davis’ teaching on “The Joshua Generation”. Davis is the leader at the HaCarmel Assembly in northern Israel and this teaching outlines the necessary process for anointing – Purity before Power. Excellent counsel on how to prepare a young generation to take their place in advancing the kingdom of Yeshua. Please pray over all the young believers of Israel who are this Joshua generation.
David Davis, and other ministry leaders this week, ask especially for prayers over the young Messanic soldiers who are serving in the Israeli Defense Forces. At this time there are over 200 believing “Joshua generation” soldiers in the IDF.

Many
Christians use the excuse that most Israelis are not holy, nor are they seeking
after God, as reason not to support Israel.
But that is exactly why God calls believers worldwide to intercede for
and prophesy over Yeshua’s brethren according to the flesh. Isaiah 62:7 says we are to “give Him no rest”
from our prayer petitions “until He establish, and makes Jerusalem a praise in
the earth.” “Say to the daughter of
Zion, Behold salvation comes”. Jerusalem
will only be a praise in all the earth when Israel embraces Messiah Yeshua.
Therefore, David and Josie Silver of Out of Zion Ministries asks that we pray specifically: “Pray their hearts will be turned back to their God, to have a desire for their God, so they can be the people of God, they were destined to be and do what they have been called to do. Pray that Abba will give them new hearts, take out the hard stony hearts and give them a heart of flesh one that will seek after the one and only true God. Bless your people Israel with salvation! We proclaim Yeshua (salvation) over Israel from the oldest to the youngest.”

From Revive Israel Ministries: This week the death (from cancer) of an Arab
man in Israeli prison who had recruited and dispatched a would-be suicide
bomber in 2002, set off riots on the Palestinian streets who were protesting
that he had not be released for “humanitarian reasons”. A person who had been sitting in the
Jerusalem café when the suicide bomber was apprehended before he could
detonate, gives a firsthand
testimony of the incident and the aftermath. They also ask why the world’s media is so
focused on the so-called injustice of such a terrorist dying in prison of
cancer, instead of on what he did to land him in prison. “Deceit is in the
heart of them that imagine evil.” Proverbs 12:20
Pray for those in the world who have believed
a false narrative about terrorism and humanitarian conduct to be set free from
the deceitful lies about Israel. This is
not just a matter of differences of opinion because the truth is not
relative. As the IDF chief
Lt.-Gen. declared over his nation
this week in a Holocaust Remembrance speech at the Auschwitz death camp on
Monday: "there is no weapon or evil
intention that can stand".
Without referencing God, nor citing the verse from Isaiah 54:17 that he was quoting, this declaration from the military head in Israel carries spiritual impact.
It reminded me of the declaration that the high priest made over Yeshua, how “it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.” Like the high priest, the military head does not realize the spiritual significance of what he declared, but as the head of the office he holds, It does appear to have spiritual significance indeed. Let us pray that word over Israel especially at this time when so many weapons are being formed against Israel. They may form, but they may not prosper!

Urgent HEALING Needs: Life and Death is in the power of the
tongue
Please keep in prayer the Israeli
believers who are fighting for their lives or other urgent health needs:
An emergency
request from Guy Cohen’s Harvest of Asher Congregation: One of the members of the
congregation was rushed to the hospital where they discovered multiple growths
in her brain. One is growing and she will be operated on tomorrow (4/9).
Please pray for this woman and her family. God miraculously intervened while
she was in the ambulance on the way to the hospital. Pray for His divine intervention
and mercy to be felt in the eye of the storm.
Please pray for
Neriyah, a Chosen People minister in Bat Yam who desperately needs a kidney
transplant. He has a donor, but due to some compatibility issues, Neriyah is
undergoing treatments now that they hope will remove the compatibility
issues. Pray for the treatments to be
successful. Pray for Katya Morrison at Tents of Mercy recovering from bone marrow
transplant for Acute Myeloid Leukemia and a second round of chemo following the
transplant; Brookie and Tom both in the Galilee are believing
for victory over cancer in Carmel. Ami Ortiz for ongoing issues from the
bomb blast; Ariel of Succat Hallel; Elise Levine suffering from mysterious
and debilitating leg pain for over a year.
Pray for Kay Wilson still
suffering from PTSD after surviving a stabbing terrorism attack that her friend
did not survive. Keep Baby Netaley’s
full recovery in your prayers.
