Serving the Body of Messiah in Israel since August 2001
& Strategically Aimed for the Lord’s Harvest in Israel
Martin Sarvis in Jerusalem writes, On Friday evening Jews in Israel and around the world celebrated the salvation provided their ancestors in Egypt by the blood of the lamb over their doorposts—and the miraculous deliverance from slavery which followed. We are now making our way through the seven days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Children are out of school this week, many of their parents are only working a half-day—the parks and beaches are overflowing. Please pray protection over Israel during this holy season.
Pray that the wind of the
Holy Spirit (“wind” and “spirit” are the same word in Hebrew) will breathe on
this people—awakening them to their need for salvation, and to the provision of
Yeshua, the Lamb of God who carries away the sin of the world. Pray for awakening of a hunger for “Heavenly
Bread”—the “true bread from heaven” given by the Father (John 6:32-33), “He who
comes down from Heaven and gives life to the world”—the One born in
Bet-Lekhem—“House of Bread”—Bethlehem.
Pray that the “Word” of God would come to life as it is read each day in
the Synagogues!

Passover has passed and now Israelis are
enjoying a week of family time during the Feast of Unleavened Bread. This means
kids are out of school, camps for the Messianic kids are in progress, and lots
of outdoor activities abound. This week
we start the Israelprayer Summary
with a glowing report from the Beer Sheva congregation as Howard Bass notes his
wife came hope "happy Randi" after the Passover event for the
congregation and the congregations in Arad.
Why all the happiness? #1 because everyone pitched in just a like a
family to make this large gathering a pure joy.
Any woman who has prepared for a major family
holiday dinner event knows the stress of making everything happen smoothly;
that potential for stress is multiplied when it is a congregational family
holiday dinner event! We are so glad for the grace the LORD poured out on this
event and hope it was duplicated in the Messianic ministries all across Israel. Read more inside the attached DOCX Weekly

From the Revive Israel team this week we have
a couple of video teachings from Asher Intrater What you didn't know about Passover and How to Open Heaven Pt 2. There is a report by Cody Acther on the
Revive Israel East Asia Retreat now in progress. He writes, "Over the
last few years God has placed a desire on the hearts of some key people from a
number of East Asian countries to represent our vision and team among their own
people. So far with their help we have been able to set up offices in Hong Kong
and Korea, and more countries are on the way.
Delegates will be attending from China, Hong Kong, Korea, Japan,
Pakistan, and of course Thailand. Our
goal is to see strong bridges of relationship and mutual blessing built between
Israel and East Asia. "
Also Revive shares some news highlights from
within Israel - Israeli Muslim Police Commander, Prime Minister
Netanyahu on Golan Heights to Stay and a significant event in the
official condemnation by the Organization of Islamic Cooperation of Iran's
supporting terror and intervening to take over countries around the Middle
East. Read more inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary
From the Tents of Mercy congregation in Kiryat
Yam, Eitan Shishkoff's son-in-law and fellow Tents pastor, Avi Tekel brings a
report of the congregation in full-tilt of the Passover season - from the
process of preparing for family sedars to humanitarian holiday food
distributions. Also the teens participation in the 3-day Passover Katzir Youth
gathering.
Avi writes, "One more thought...the last
place we went to give baskets was the city welfare office. We delivered the
bags together with my two young sons and Sasha our warehouse manager. We
lingered there a bit to chat and towards the end of our visit, one of the
workers mentioned an article that was written about us in the newspaper. The
piece was quite negative and said that we are a "mission to convert
Jews." The workers who know us well were enraged and offered to write a
counter piece defending us. I tell you this because in the back of my mind this
thought is nagging - wanting to take root in my heart. So let me bring this before you that you might
pray for us."
He continues: Pray that there will be a lasting impact on the young people who have now returned home from the desert camp. Pray that we will have a blessed and significant Passover season as a community. Pray for all Israel that their eyes will be opened to see the Lamb that was sacrificed to free us from sin.

The Yuval Messianic Worship Center for Music
and the Arts is "a high quality Messianic educational institution that
leads the way for its students to be true disciples of Yeshua (Jesus), involved
in and influencing society. Our
activities are focused on cultivating the gifts of the students and teaching
them to progress and invest in the development of their talents. We encourage
them to use these gifts for the glory of God within the body of Messiah and
within their community."
We don't often get updates from Yuval, which operates out of the Clal Building in Jerusalem and is sponsored by King of Kings congregation, but we know this to be a worthy ministry - and much needed attention to the kids from believing families. Music and the arts are always high on the list of Jewish values for raising their children. This ministry is to nurture that among the children and teens.

Two items we saw on Facebook today that we
want to mention at the last minute are one, Congratulations to Evangelist Jacob
Damkani whose film "The Messenger" about his life has won the Silver Remi
Award at Documentary Drama section in the Worldfest International Film Festival
in Houston a couple of days ago. Jacob writes, "Hallelujah! Praise be to
the Almighty God! May this make many more people see the film and find
salvation! This is what this film is made for. You may still order your copy for a reduced
price.
Second is congratulations to Lura and Eddie
Beckford in Arad who were blessed with a 2013 7-passenger van from Christian
friends in Canada who have been blessing Israeli ministries with these
vans. What a fantastic way to help
facilitate the work of the ministry in Israel. God bless those with hearts to
do these things!
Ben Juster files a monthly prayer letter on
behalf of the network of Israeli ministries in the Tikkun International
ministry (Intrater, Shishkoff, Juster and dozens of other active
ministers). Number one on the praise
report is about their Board meetings last month: "...some of the most impacting and
fruitful that we have ever had. There was a strong sense of purpose and unity,
and many strategic directions that we had been praying about became more clear.
The Board members were also able to pray and minister to several of the local
congregational and ministry leaders. It was an intimate time of relational
strengthening and sharing. Please continue to pray for the Tikkun Board,
especially for wisdom and follow through for implementation of the various
objectives in the coming months. Pray for continued strengthening of the vision
and of our cooperative unity together in Israel."
A taste from the ministry at that Tikkun Board
meeting is in this video teaching.

There are the usual things that international
Israel-oriented ministries put forward as prayer requests for Israel, notes
Kobi and Shani Ferguson of Yeshua Israel Ministries in Jerusalem. "These topics are the usual things that
get people arguing in regards to right and wrong, justice and war crimes. But
if the spiritual aspects are dealt with, often the natural things fall into
place. So let us delve into the spiritual needs of the Jewish people and the
Promised Land. God promised to bless the earth through the families of Israel.
It is their calling and destiny whether they recognize it or not. And yet, when
Israel is in right standing with the Lord, how much more will we see the
nations experience the Kingdom of God manifest on the earth? It’s not a hope,
it’s a promise. So let’s dig in our heels together and contend for God’s
ancient plan to be fulfilled in the hearts of the children of Israel and
ultimately in our own lives. (Rom 11:15) READ MORE at this link. Also, for more of this prayer letter, see inside

Arni and Yonit Klien of Emmaus way write today
of the final touches that are going on their Galilee House, where they are
"hosting our brethren from the nations in the ten-day monthly worship
gatherings, this new space is wonderfully suited for larger regular worship times
open to the local brethren. " Arni writes, "Since its beginning, each
of the ten-day Galilee Worship Gatherings has had a decidedly prophetic
dynamic. In this last Gathering, the Spirit strongly impressed us concerning a
spiritual shift set to take place on October 31, 2017. " He notes some historic events that have taken
place on 10-31-17 in Germany, Britain and Israel. To read the full prophetic interpretation of
the emphasis on these dates see inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary

PA SEEKS INTERNATIONAL RECOGNITION FOR ‘RIGHT’ TO KILL ISRAELIS: The Palestinian Authority (PA) is seeking to have the international forum recognize their “right under international law” to murder Israeli civilians in all places and at all times, which they claim is established by a UN resolution. Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) reports that the PA are requesting that Palestinian “heroes and role models” who murdered Israeli civilians should receive an internationally protected right to murder Israeli civilians, that will also be recognized as a positive act that should be awarded. As a means to attain this recognition, the PA is asking the international community to award an imprisoned Palestinian terrorist with the Nobel Peace Prize. As the leader of Fatah's terror wing, Marwan Barghouti orchestrated many terror attacks in which Israelis were murdered. He was convicted in an Israeli court and is serving five life sentences for murder.
The PA claims it has the right to murder Israeli civilians according to UN resolution 3236 of 1974, which "recognizes the right of the Palestinian people to regain its rights by all means." The PA interprets "all means" to include violence and killing of civilians, while ignoring the continuation of the resolution which states that the use of "all means" should be "in accordance with the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations.” The UN Charter prohibits targeting civilians, even in war, and states that "international disputes" should be resolved "by peaceful means." “May all who hate Zion be turned back in shame.” Ps 129.5
