Yeshua said in John 4:35-36, Do you not say, ‘There are still four months and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!
36 And he who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit for eternal life, that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.
We pray for the release of seed to the sower to sow the wages of those who reap and gather the fruit.
Arrows from Zion Key Prayer Points “He ordains His arrows against the persecutors” ________________________________________
The trial which seeks to hold religious extremism against the Messianic believers in Israel to the rule of law that exists in Israel, has been extended. The new final date of testimony will be on November 23, with the verdict to follow on December 23.
The Court seems to be favoring the religious authorities in rulings made so far which would effectively insulate the instigators from being held accountable. If there is no accountability – if the Judge does not allow evidence of the instigation of the riot in 2005 against the Yeshua’s Inheritance congregation – this will encourage further incidents against believers.
Five months will lapse before the final testimony is heard by the Court. Pray God will “redeem the time” on behalf of the believers. Pastor Howard Bass writes, “November 23 is the day we have to prove that the two defendants are joined together and responsible for that event. What seems so obvious is not so simple to prove in a court of law.” Pray for Judge Iddo Ruzin.
Pray for Jerusalem Post journalist Larry Derfner who is the lone media observer of this trial. Pray for his discernment of the truth and ability to communicate it to the public. Editors often slash the most important facts news reporters write. Pray this will not be the case for Derfner’s coverage.
Pray for God grant fervor to intercede for this important trial which will have ramifications for the entire Body of the Lord in Israel. Incidents of persecution are going unpunished and will only escalate without instigators and perpetrators being held accountable to Israeli law.
When the bomb was placed in a Purim basket in March 2008, and placed at the doorstep of a Messianic family residence, the willingness of religious opposition even to murder believers in Israel was the line that was crossed. WE MUST OPPOSE THAT IN THE SPIRIT!
This court case is our line drawn in the sand – we must not let the believers of Israel stand alone in it. Tell others & see CBN News “Trial Brings Light to Treatment of Messianic Jews” and a CBN video report
