I
want to share with and invite
you to participate in a project, that I believe the Lord gave me
the vision for, in 2001.
As
you know, David and I are the founding directors of Out of Zion
Ministries, based here on Mt. Carmel. The primary vision of Out
of Zion is two-fold:
1) To
share the gospel with the Jew first and also with the Gentiles -
(David has seen many non Jews
come to know the Lord at outreach events in Samoa, India and
Malaysia.)
2) To share with the Church
about her Jewish roots and her Biblical responsibility and relationship
to Israel; and to encourage Christians to bless the Jewish people
thru prayer, intercession and financial support.
David and I believe that both
of the above are imperative to hasten the ushering in of the
Lord's return (Acts 3:21 and 2 Peter 2:12). We also believe
that the devil has, is and will strongly contest the above two areas
of ministry. Therefore we see the absolute need of corporate focused
intercession to "Prepare
the way of the Lord".
The
Lord has been speaking to me to oversee the establishment of a team
of mature, committed intercessors. My vision is that I would be the
central communications person here on Mt. Carmel and you would
be one of the many intercessory cells out there in the nations.This
will be an email-based network that will enable two-way communication
from Israel to the nations and from the nations to Israel. Just
before the Lord established this ministry , I had a very vivid dream
where I saw many small rivers, flowing into one big river. The small
rivers represented the many different nations, and the big
river represented (Zion). As the small rivers flowed into the big
river they deposited and imparted something to leave in Zion, but
, at the same time they (the nations that came up to Zion) received
from Zion to take back and impart to their nations. (Jeremiah 31:12)
This dream was prophetic for the IRI annual Prayer summits
- see below
I send
out monthly updates of current prayer points and facts.
MAJOR
PRAYER FOCUS:
David
and I sense that we are to combine more closely his preaching/teaching
ministry and my intercessory ministry.
This is a fulfillment of the
call to be a light to the nations, given to Israel at Mt. Sinai
and reissued by Yeshua that he gave the "Great Commission"
to His disciples. We see therefore, the major
prayer focus for Intercessors
for the Restoration of Israel as follows:
1) To pray for continuing
and increasing Aliyah (immigration of Jews
to Israel) – also that Messianic
Jews in the nations would increasingly grow and mature and
also make Aliyah as the Lord leads.
2) ) To pray for the salvation
(healing and deliverance) of the Jewish people.
3) To pray for the Messianic
believers in Israel to grow in number and maturity, and
for those with the calling, to arise and go “Out
of Zion” with the word of the Lord to be that light to the
nations.
The first three points are all
prophetic signs of the Lord’s return and will hasten the day
of His coming. In
addition to the above, I will keep you informed of current Out
of Zion assignments and
prayer needs.
PRAYER
SUMMITS IN ZION
To establish a deeper connection
for this project, thru worship, intercession and fellowship together,
we felt the Lord leading us to do international prayer summits here
in Zion. The first prayer summit in March 2002, was a
powerful demonstration of international unity and focus for the
restoration of Israel. As we entered into prophetic intercession
and worship, repented, did prophetic acts, danced, waved flags and
banners, did spiritual warfare, stood in strong unity, the Holy
Spirit came and met us all in ways far above what we could have
imagined. We were all
deeply changed, affected, impacted and commissioned with a new anointing.

We are planning on
doing these prayer summits annually. As well as the prayer summit , we will
also take you on an intercessory excursion, to intercede,
worship, and decree God's Word and promises at strategic sites and
perform prophectic acts. We hope many of you can come and
join us in this prophetic act to “Prepare the Way “
for our coming King. You will not be disappointed
!
YOUR RESPONSE
I need
your personal response as to how you feel about being committed
to such a project. I believe that you will be quickened
by the Holy Spirit and have a strong witness from Him, if you are
to be a part of, and committed to this specific work.
My
vision is to see a "Prophetic Army" of
intercessors raised up to pray in, the above mentioned
points.
I look forward to hearing from you, by email, if you feel led to
be committed to be a part this ministry and to receive the
monthly IRI prayer bulletins.

grace,
