Pentecost, or Shavuot as it is known in the original Hebrew, is about the past and future outpouring of the Holy Spirit of Acts 2.  It is in the future outpouring in Jerusalem that God has promised to pour out His Spirit on ALL FLESH - which is will this online from Jerusalem Prayer event is an annual gathering, this year on June 11.

Today Eddie Santoro who pastors the Ahavat Yeshua congregation in Jerusalem is going in for another MRI post-brain surgery. Please pray the LORD will continue to prosper Eddie's health. He will get the results in one week.  Eddie shares how the health ordeal had driven him into deeper study of healing in the scriptures and how that is impacting their many visits to the hospital with a new boldness to pray for those who need a healing touch from God. 

Santoro writes, "Every time we are in the hospital, the love of God pours out from us onto those who are very sick. We enter into warm and friendly conversations with them, sharing my situation and the reason for the hope that we have and ultimately ask if they would like prayer. This ongoing wonder has occurred many times and nobody has ever said no! We lay our Spirit filled hands on the sick and in love pray for their healing in Yeshua's name. And we let them know that once we pray for them in the hospital, we will continue to pray for them every day. We are confident that the fruit of our prayers is affecting many even in ways we cannot know or imagine."           

The Arad congregation Hasdey Yeshua (Mercy of Yeshua) are practicing the mercy which is in the name of their congregation as they continue outreach in the nearby Bedouin community.  They are literally reaching out to those who have no hope, for as they write, the Bedouin community is in bondage. If you would like to pray for these people here is how the Bedouin are in bondage:

  • Bondage to a false religion and a demonic “god.” No, Allah and the God of the Bible are not the same, and Islam is not one of the three great monotheistic religions.
  • Bondage to a cruel tribalism that denigrates women and denies youngsters the adult supervision that they so desperately need.
  • Bondage to extreme poverty, partly brought about by blind obedience to the “duty” of a good Muslim wife to bear many children, whether or not the family can afford to care for them.

These same issues of bondage that are shared by Muslims throughout the Middle East but, as we heard this weekend in a message delivered by Asher Intrater, God is working mighty to deliver at this time among Muslims - like in Indonesia, a Muslim nation in the east where the outpouring of the Holy Spirit is sweeping thousands into the kingdom.  Already there are reports of this same Spirit delivering many in Middle Eastern Muslim nations. The Gospel of the Kingdom is traveling eastward to Israel! Keep praying and blessing those like Hasdey Yeshua who are actively participating in showing the love of Yeshua to their neighbors held in bondage.  Read more inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary

In northern Israel, God's Vineyard (Karem-El) congregation is under new, young pastors as Dani Sayeg moves to the parent-congregation of the Carmel Assembly.  It is a young congregation and discipling young adults is a priority among them - as well as reaching out in their community to be salt and light. One of the volunteer projects they have begun will be to help a youth center in a disadvantaged area of Haifa.  Read more about this congregation and how to lift them in prayer inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary

The House of Victory is an outreach to the addicted - Jew, Arab, any of those on the streets who respond to the holy hands reaching out to lift them out of the fire. This is a team work, and they partner with teams in Tel Aviv - Israel's official 'Sin City' - where the addicted on their last leg are so abundant.  Eric Benson, who leads the HOV ministry of the HaCarmel congregation, writes:

"Recently in a gathering of our staff for a time of prayer, someone read the verse in 1 Timothy 2:8, "Therefore, I want men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands..." These words deeply penetrated my heart. I thought to myself about the holy work our hands are performing. A holy work requires "holy hands!" In order for us to come into the presence of the Lord, we need clean hands, and a pure heart. If we are going to daily challenge the men to separate themselves from the unclean, we need to set the example for them to follow. We need to boldly proclaim through our lifestyle the way into the holy place of His presence."

Read more inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary about this ministry pulling people hopeless addicted back to hope, sharing life - the abundant life of Yeshua.  Among the prayer requests listed in the House of Victory ministry letter is the request for continued prayers for David Davis as he recovers from cancer surgery, and for Karen as she cares for him.

Guy Cohen who leads the Harvest of Asher congregation in Akko shares a short teaching called, The Fulfillment of the Omer in Yeshua HaMashiach.  Most of us who are drawn to Israel by God want to have at least a rudimentary understanding of Jesus in the Feasts of the LORD. This is a wonderful place to learn how Yeshua was the fulfillment of the "firstfruits". 

Guy also notes that during the Passover holiday, with the donations of their ministry partners, they were able to provide food coupons to 200 needy families in Acco.  Learn more about how this congregation is reaching out into their community in this poor seaside city in northern Israel inside the attached DOCX Weekly Summary

Urgent HEALING Needs: Life and Death is in the power of the tongue

Tal Bass. Miriam Abramov, incisional hernia (and also me, as I have too developed an incisional hernia from my gallbladder surgery last year and would appreciate prayers).

Update on Polly:  Polly’s pneumonia is all gone. She had a biopsy on the growth in her lung and will know the results sometime in the first week of May. Please pray that it’s benign and will cause no further problems.

Update on Eddie Santoro: On May 4th I will be having another MRI. Please join us in praying that the results will demonstrate in an ever greater way the miraculous healing power of God in my body. We will meet with the oncologist the following week and receive the results and of course we will share the GOOD REPORT with you as soon as we receive it. Thank you for standing with us.
