Israel Prayer Journey ~ "I AM" Glory Ring Testimonial

 Joy Breazeale ~ 2004

October 3-17, 2004 

Sunday, 10/03/04~ Departing from Lebanon, Tennessee on the National Day of Prayer for Israel 

Foundation Scriptures:  Isaiah 53 and Ephesians 2:16-18

Monday, 10/4 - At the Zurich airport there was a large gathering of Hassidic and Orthodox Jews conducting a service of morning prayers. This lasted for about an hour or maybe more and they were fully clothed in the Orthodox dress, prayer shawls, and carrying “boughs” since they were still celebrating Sukkot, the Feast of Tabernacles. I was silently beseeching God on their behalf with Ephesians 3 prayers. 

I love these people, my brothers (and sisters (there were wives there) they were reading the Torah, walking, praying, and after the men were through, they were carrying the “bough” as well) and I want to understand more fully their “traditions” – not to embrace the traditions, but so that I can love them more. 

There they are in the middle of an airport waiting room in Zurich Switzerland, going for it with all their heart dressed in their prayer shawls, praying in Hebrew – singing song prayers out loud, walking around, bowing and moving in rhythm to an ancient tradition, waving live boughs and reading the Torah. How much we could learn from them.  O Lord, there is no enmity, no feud, no division between them and me (representing the Gentiles).  I pray, O Most High Lord of All, let Jew and Gentile embrace in love and in obedience to Your Word, I pray in Jesus Name, AMEN. (John 17) 

Tuesday 10/5 - From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same, I worship You O Lord my God. Psalm 27, for Israel – I declare that this is (year 5765) the year of the Goodness of The Lord for His People, the Jews, the Israelis, in the land of the living the Goodness of The Lord. 

As I am praying Scripture over Israel, I keep hearing 29 real strong.  Psalm 29?  Will the Lord break in pieces the cedars of Lebanon?  Will there be a strong storm?  This is the season (during Feast of Tabernacles) that the Jewish people begin to pray for rain for the next growing season. 

God, I pray in Jesus’ Name that Your rain of Truth, Salvation, Righteousness, will fall in copious amounts upon Your land of Israel, breaking into pieces the stately cedars of Lebanon (representing the pride of the Arabs & even Jews, Christians) and let your lightning (Your answers to prayers) STRIKE YOUR MARK! (Job 36:32)  Lord, You shake the wilderness.  Lord, I pray that You shake so hard the Rock will split forth and pour out the Living Water needed by these people who are in the wilderness (a dry desert).  Your Voice, O Lord, is Mighty and Powerful!  Let it be heard over this land, Israel.  Let the waters roar Your Truths, reveal The Word, The Lord Jesus, Messiah, as You sound forth Your Mighty Awesome Voice. Lord, give unyielding and impenetrable strength to Your people in Israel; bless Your people with Peace! The Prince of Peace, Jesus COME!  Amen. I pray for the Peace of Jerusalem. I pray for the Lord Jesus Christ to come and take His place on the throne of Jerusalem.  Come, Prince of Peace. You said in Your Word that You came for the salvation of Your people. King of the Jews!

This is the last day of Feast of Tabernacles, Osnat mentioned to me that she and her family were eating all of their meals in their booth.  I am sitting on the patio, and can clearly hear a family close by (small child and adults) and I wonder if they are celebrating the time when God, the Great I AM, brought them out of slavery and bondage, out of Egypt when they lived in tents.  Lord God, as Your people celebrate the ending of this festival, I pray that You will bring to their remembrance Your Awesome Mercy & Love & Deliverance, and Lord, please, I entreat You, reveal Yeshua, Jesus, Messiah, to Your people. (Zechariah 14:16-21)

Lord, Your Word says that we will all go together to Jerusalem each year to worship You and celebrate the feast of tabernacles – Your Jewish people are way ahead of us!  Lord, bless them more this year of 5765 than ever before, I pray in Jesus Name, AMEN.

I sat on my patio a.k.a. tabernacle of booths, and read Isaiah 62 over the land. How the Lord loves His people of Zion and Jerusalem.  He has put watchman on the walls that will NEVER hold their peace and will never keep silence, but will remind GOD of His promises until HE makes Jerusalem a praise in all the earth!  O, How GOD loves His people of Israel! Vs. 8 says that Judah has toiled for the new wine and by GOD’s strong right arm and right hand, they will drink this new wine! WOW!  Lord, I pray that You will give them a sample of this new wine, Jesus Himself produced the new wine for the wedding feast. I pray, O Lord that You will release this new wine for which they have toiled. O Lord, release this new wine!  Open the eyes of Your people to see the Bridegroom, Yeshua. Let Your people get drunk on His Glorious Presence, Power and Peace, O Lord; Your new wine is very good! In Jesus Name, AMEN

I shall pour out new wine made in Israel symbolic of a pouring out of the new wine for which they have toiled.  I purchased three bottles of Israeli made wine, called Canaan, at the store today. I proclaimed Psalm 50 over the land.

Wednesday 10/6 - I proclaimed over the land, Moses’ prophecy over the tribes of Israel before he went up to the mountain to meet his GOD: “There is none like GOD, O Israel, who rides through the heavens to your help, and in His majestic glory through the sky. The eternal God is your refuge and dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms; He drove the enemy before you and thrust them out, saying, Destroy! And Israel dwells in safety, the fountain of Jacob alone in a land of grain and new wine. Yes, His heavens drop dew. Happy are you, O Israel, and blessing is yours!  Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord, the shield of your help, the sword that exalts you!  Your enemies shall come fawning and cringing, and submit feigned obedience to you, and you shall march on their high places.” AMEN, O Lord, Let it be in Yeshua’s Name!  (Deuteronomy 33:26-29)

Thursday 10/7 - Up early, another beautiful sunny day. I went up Mt Carmel to proclaim over the region, like Elijah did many years ago.  Rather than go to the same spot that was associated with Elijah’s defeat of Baal’s prophets, I sensed it was OK to find a spot high up the mountainous road to pour out the wine, and proclaim over the land.  I was facing the sea, at Mt Carmel. I staked my spot, began to pray in the Spirit, and sought the place to pour the wine – Canaan new wine.  It was down a slope, so that the new wine would flow down into the soil.

I began to proclaim and release new wine for Israel – “for which they have toiled” – Peter, Paul, the disciples; certainly they toiled for the new wine/ new covenant. The prophets of old, they certainly toiled! They were rebuked, persecuted, killed, imprisoned, but they never stopped proclaiming the Word of God (Jesus) and they never stopped prophesying the coming Servant Savior. I think of Jeremiah, Isaiah, Moses, Hosea and all of the prophets of God who toiled for the new wine. I released honor to these servants of God. As I continued to release new wine in Jesus Name, representing His Blood, New and Better Covenant, I proclaimed salvation to the Nation of Israel and all nations that have and will come to Israel. Proclaiming as Elijah did, there is only One True God, The God Elohim of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the God of Jesus, Yeshua of Nazareth. Exalting Jesus, Son of God, and Son of man, through whom salvation comes. Proclaimed the Lamb of God, slain before the earth began for the sins of all, a bridge back to God!  I AM once and for all.  I rebuked all false gods and idols, the word is finished, and Jesus is Lord!

Proclaiming the Word of God from Ephesians 2:14-17 and released freedom from the enmity between Jew and Gentile, law and grace. One New Man, One Spirit, One Messiah. I asked God to lift the veil off His people, all people, that they would know Yeshua. Continuing to pray and prophesy until HIS release came, there was a fresh breeze blowing. All in the Wonderful, Awesome and Mighty Name of Jesus, AMEN, so be it.

Thank You Abba, Yeshua, Holy Spirit, my constant companion and protection, for this divine opportunity, I pray, Holy Spirit, that You will take these humble and imperfect prayers, and perfect them before The Father so that His Perfect Will is Done!  AMEN!

Spent a quiet night at home base, spent some time praying for family and friends, and just asking The Lord to save all of the hurting. We need You Lord, We love You Lord.

Friday 10/8 - When I awoke, I sensed that I was supposed to turn on the news. Devastating news for Israel. Late Thursday night at Taba, a resort in Egypt just across the border, there was a massive explosion, killing 30 or so Israelis who were just at the end of the holidays. After the report, I spent a couple of hours just praising The Lord and singing and praying Psalms of protection over the Apple of God’s Eye.  Especially Psalms 3,  27,  13,  86 especially vs. 17,  and 83. Powerful!  I listened to and prayed Mary Ellen McFadden’s cd Portal Songs, Psalm 3, Break Forth, Psalm 27, and Acts II. This was a sweet time with the Lord and a powerful time of praying and releasing His Words and promises of protection and deliverance. So many times I have personalized the Psalms for people, individuals, and now they are coming ALIVE for Israel and the nations.

In the afternoon, went to Mt Carmel park and climbed up for another perspective. Looking on the other side of the mountain, it was riddled with caves. As I was considering God speaking to Elijah I sat and waited and meditated on how much easier for me to obey God than for Elijah. As you, consider that after Elijah prayed for rain, then he girded himself up and ran 20 miles. I can tell you that the way is rough, except for the roads that I drive on, it is rough with lots of vegetation.  So, when the Lord asks me to go to Haifa, I hop in a car, I don’t have to worry about blisters, dirt and other road waste (will my sandals last the trip?), or which way do I go?! What I envy is the way Elijah heard God. He knew His position as prophet and that was his only focus, to hear God and obey. I want that, Lord, I pray.

So even though I was not looking at Elijah’s cave, I am sure it was similar to what I was seeing.  I was considering the “still small voice” as opposed to the earthquake, the strong winds that rent the mountains, the fire – they were all manifestations of God speaking in the past especially for the children of Israel crossing over from Egypt to Canaan.  The still small voice was prophetic of Jeremiah 31:33. God will put His law inside of Israel. He will write it upon their heart, and of course, the new covenant, Ephesians 3:15-2, the indwelling Holy Spirit which brings the fullness of God Himself into the believer.

Back to home base, I sang over the land “Let it Rain” because now is the time for salvation.

Saturday 10/9 - Going to Tiberius and Capernaum today. I love sitting on the patio in the morning and reading the Word, enjoying the many different species of birds – lots of small birds, not as small as hummers (hummingbirds) but close.  Smaller than wrens, delicate and fast, they hop and flit around the grass and many trees and shrubs – some still flowering.  There are woodpeckers, ravens, King Solomon birds, eating really fat grubs, and also the delightful sounds of children in the neighborhood calling “Abba”.

I sat, prayed and praised and read Psalms for Israel and the precious people God has placed in my Oikos. Loving Him, loving His, Thank You Lord for Your Precious Word as I am singing and praising and praying, I am reminded that I have salvation “through the Jews” and that I am the wild olive branch.  I pray that they Lord will receive my prayers as a true Israelite, for my gratitude and love toward His people, is great!

Tiberius is a large city set on a mountain, going all the way down to the Sea of Galilee, a couple of hours from Ein Ayala.  All the way there, I prayed in the Spirit.  The Lord asked that I bring bread and oil with me today. 

As I was praying, I knew that I was to break the bread, and make sure to gather up all the pieces, symbolic of the broken body of Jesus, The Bread of Life which was broken for us all, the Precious Body of Christ, our Savior, Redeemer, Messiah. Gathering all the pieces, this is symbolic of the disciples gathering up all the bread (and fish) fragments/pieces after Jesus fed the multitudes.  The symbolism is that none would be lost.  Jesus’ blessing of His Broken Body was more than sufficient as it fed the thousands that were present both times.

When I arrived in Capernaum, I realized that I did not have my camera.  It was not very busy, thankfully, because the Lord wanted me to break the break in the Synagogue that was there. Walking around, I first touched stones, wondering if Jesus had touched that very stone.  Then I watched a lizard scurrying over the hot stones, and wondered if Jesus was as delighted by a scurrying lizard as I was. All of a sudden, I had the realization of His Delight as Master and Creator of the Universe!  It made tears come to my eyes.

As I was passing around looking at the very old stones left from the homes of Capernaum, I saw #133 on a stone, I poured oil at that spot, and began to pray for an anointing from the Head of Jesus to cover the entire body.  Psalm 133, I called forth unity, thanked The Lord for His anointing and for being our head. Went back to the Synagogue and there was no one there. I sat on a stone bench, prayed in Jesus Name, broke the bread at the same place Jesus spoke John 6, and then gathered all the pieces.

Leaving Capernaum, I headed north to find a place to “cast the bread upon the waters so that it will come back” – the Sea of Galilee – also known as the Galilee of the Nations. I found a place and hiked down to the water’s edge, and could not open the bag that held the bread.  I tore it, representing Jesus’ torn body, and cast the broken bread (The Word, Broken and Revealed) upon the Galilee of the nations – expecting The Word to the Nations to be returned “soon”.  As I was tossing the bread upon the waters, I began to sing John Michael Talbot’s song, “Lord, Every Nation on Earth Will Adore Thee.”  Then I poured oil, asking for the Holy Spirit to consecrate all the nations to The Lord.

Tried walking on the water (for my grandson, smile) but – oh well, maybe next time.

Sunday 10/10 – “I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the House of The Lord.”  Arose early and saw the new moon. This is significant to the Jews as it begins a new reading of the Torah and I believe, signals the beginning of a new month.  This is the first day back to work and school for everyone after a long holiday.

My heart is very tender today for my family and friends. I began to prophesy Sunday morning from the Word

Micah 7:11-20 - “In that day that your walls are to be built, a day for building, in that day shall the boundary of Israel be far extended and the decree (against her) be far removed. In that day they will come to you from Assyria and from the cities of Matzer (Egypt) and from Egypt even to the river (Euphrates), and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain. Yet shall the earth be desolate because of those who dwell in it, for the fruit of their doings Rule and feed Your people with Your Rod and Scepter, the flock of Your inheritance, who dwell alone in a forest in the midst of Carmel – a garden land, they shall feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of Old. As in the days of your coming forth from the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things. The nations shall see (God’s deliverance) and be ashamed of all their might (which cannot be compared to HIS).  They shall lay their hands upon their mouths in consternation; their ears shall be deaf. (Strong emphasis on this next verse against Al Qaeda, Taliban, Hamas, Hezbollah and whoever is an enemy of Israel) They shall lick the dust, like a serpent, (reminds me of Isaiah 49:23) like crawling things of the earth they shall come trembling out of their strongholds and close places, they shall turn and come with fear and dread to The Lord our God, and shall be afraid and stand in awe because of You, O Lord! Who is a God like You, Who forgives iniquity and passes over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage?  He retains not His anger forever, because He delights in mercy and loving-kindness! He will again have compassion on us; He will subdue and tread under foot our iniquities.  You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea. You will show Your Faithfulness and perform the sure promise to Jacob, and loving-kindness and mercy to Abraham, as You have sworn to our fathers from the days of old!”           

Lord God Almighty, Creator of Heaven and Earth, God of all, I pray now, in Yeshua’s Name, Jesus, our Great High Priest forever, for a fulfillment of this scripture now, in Israel. Now is the time for the full salvation and redemption of the apple of Your Eye, Your inheritance, Israel.

Expose, I pray, O Lord, the wicked deeds of those who want to destroy Israel, expose all the darkness and dark places; by Your Might and Marvelous works, O God, they will come forth, ashamed.  Now, O Lord, I pray that You will expose all the evil powers that would destroy or harm Your people, Israel So be it, AMEN!

This day I went to Caesarea. It is beautiful!  I was going there because it is the first recorded time and place where the Jews brought the message of The Lord Jesus Christ to the Gentiles which caused quite a stir but after Peter explained the holy visitation, the first Jewish believers in Yeshua glorified God, saying “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance until real life (after resurrection).”  Acts 11:18 (in part) 

The story is in Acts 10 and 11 – God showed me “ACT II” in a dream on 9/28/04 (the same day Mary Ellen recorded her second CD with 11 songs)  (Note from Jennifer: As I am reading this journal, I am rejoicing, as the weekend of the 25^th of September I was in Lebanon Tennessee asking Mary Ellen when her second cd would be finished….ahhh….3 days later! Only GOD!)  that I was to go to Caesarea and bless this redemptive purpose of the Jews, which is to bring the message of salvation to the Jews and Gentiles.

I prayed, blessed and thanked God for bringing the Gentiles into covenant with Him and asked for double recompense for the Jews. Advancing the gospel has been very costly to the Jews, especially now, it could mean even death to a modern Jew to accept Jesus, certainly it means expulsion from family and friends. Pouring out two bottles of oil, which represented double portion, and asked God for a double portion release also of the Pentecost blessing which came upon the Gentiles at this place, Caesarea.  It was and still is a holy place. God choose Caesarea for this holy purpose, a beautiful Roman City built in the Greco/Roman style, uniquely Gentile, to release first fruits Holy Spirit. I covered my hands and arms with the last few drops of anointing oil and asked for more of His purposes. May I be a carrier and a releaser of God’s Holy Spirit fruits and gifts? Thank You Lord Jesus. Then I walked down to the sea to pour in the oil, the wind blew the oil onto the sand where the waves were lapping onto the shore.

Wash over Your people, O Lord! You promised Abraham that his descendants would be as the sand, as dust, as numerous as one could see, let the Holy Oil of Unity wash over all Your people, O God, in Yeshua’s Name, AMEN.

 Standing on a high place, I released the Word from Ephesians 2 and Romans 15 of One New Man, One New Man in Christ. I rebuked all spirits of division, whichever name or how ever they could manifest.  I placed them under my feet, in the Name and Power of Jesus, according to His Word, on this holy place where Jew first “grafted” in the Gentile, Unity in Jesus reigns!  Division is cast down under the feet of His bride!

As I was leaving, a sign pointing to the wine cellars of Caesarea offered a place for me to pour out a full portion of Canaan New Wine. Once again, pouring out and calling for the new wine for which His Jewish people have toiled.  I was standing at an ancient site of an uncovered Byzantine street.  The Byzantine time was a growth time for Jews, Christians and Samaritans before the advent of Mohammed.  I cried out for God’s Power to be released for His people, In Yeshua’s Name. 

It was a good day! I felt the weight of the prayers and prophetic actions and proclamations because of and for HIM! Jesus!

Monday 10/11 - Another gorgeous sunny breezy day! Enjoyed listening to some Bride-Bridegroom music and scriptures (CD) by Mike Bickel. I will be going to Nazareth and then to Kfar Cana today. Jesus’ first miracle was performed at Cana at the wedding feast. I will be taking the third bottle of Canaan New Wine to pour out. John 2:1 “On the third day, there was a wedding at Cana of Galilee.” Is this not the third day? Jesus was there, his mother had invited Him, vs. 3,  “And when the wine was all gone.” The old wine has run out, it is time for the New Wine released by Jesus! It is Time to replace the traditional and ceremonial washing by the water of man with the POWER of the washing of the Blood of Jesus!

Nazareth was unreal! Traffic congestion was the worst that I saw in Israel.  Big tour buses trying to negotiate tiny crowded intersections and people everywhere.  By a miracle (and I mean a miracle) I found my way into the city and actually found a parking place on the street within about 6 blocks of The Basilica of the Annunciation.  I took a few photos, and just enjoyed the sound of the bells against the cacophony of modern day congestion. God’s Voice will be heard above the distractions!

I prayed in the Spirit through the streets along the way, thanking The Lord and telling Him that I just want to be where He is. Of course, that is not hard, since HE is everywhere at all times, Christ in me, the hope of glory!  It was an honor to go to Nazareth! It was at Nazareth that Jesus entered the Synagogue and stood up to read from the book of prophet Isaiah (as it was handed to HIM) and He fulfilled Isaiah 61:1,2 with this exception….rather than declaring the day of the vengeance of our God, He declared that profuse favors would abound. Luke 4:16-20… So be it, O Lord, Our Messiah, and Yeshua!

By another miracle (I mean it – a miracle) I found my way toward Cana, missing a major traffic jam – oops, ran right through the city.  Just on the outskirts of Cana, near an olive grove, I pulled over, prayed and proclaimed and poured out His New Wine, His New Covenant, representing His Precious Blood shed for us all – proclaiming we are ONE IN HIM.  I drove off continuing to pray in the Spirit- beseeching Yeshua to reveal Himself to His Bride…

After Cana, I headed to Acre, or Akko, the an ancient city and port, of the tribe of Asher.  I did not have oil with me, but I asked for the sons of Asher to come forth with God’s favor to advance His Kingdom.  I prayed in Yeshua’s Name according to Deut 33:24, 25 “of Asher he (Moses) said, “Blessed above sons be Asher; let him be acceptable to his brothers, and let him dip his foot in oil. Your castles and strongholds shall have bars of iron and bronze; and as your day so shall your strength, your rest and security be.” Let it be, O Lord that Your sons of Asher will come forth to fight in Your Strength, Your Rest & Your Security.  Favor, Favor & more Favor, I pray in Yeshua’s Name, AMEN.

That evening, I thanked The Lord.  I love You Lord and love Your people...ALL of them.  As You have given to me the greatest gift ever, knowing You, Eternal Life, so I ask that You will do the same for everyone especially in Jerusalem and to the outer most parts of this world!  Do it Lord, Jesus, Abba, Holy Spirit…I pray, in Jesus, Yeshua’s Holy Name, AMEN.

Tuesday 10/12 – A different day… I felt very unsettled in my spirit – prayed in the Spirit for hours this day – paced.  I put on my prayer shawl and just walked and prayed – felt like I was weeping on the porch “Let the priest, the ministers of The Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them, wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God?” (Joel 2:17) 

Went to Haifa today and visited the Baha’i Shrine…sat on a bench in the courtyard at street level, and poured out oil, asking Our Father to release His Holy Spirit of Truth over this land (this shrine to a pagan god looms over the entire region) – all peoples who visit here or look upon this shrine.  In Yeshua’s Name, and by the Spirit of God, I set the captives free to Worship Jesus in spirit and in truth. How long with you waiver, O people of God? The Lord God Almighty, God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob has already shown Himself to be the only God in all of creation.  Remember what happened with Prophet Elijah, how God, Elohim displayed His Presence and Sovereignty in Power! by destroying all the prophets of the false gods.  So be it again today by the Power of The Almighty God, The Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth, I declare all false gods powerless and defeated in this land, In Jesus Name, AMEN.

Wednesday 10/13 - Today I spent several hours finding Carmel Assembly to deliver both America - Israel Glory Rings, and the book package that goes with each.  I wrote a personal note to Karen Davis explaining my connection to the America Israel Prayer Shield, and suggested she read the book to understand the prophetic nature and anointing of the rings.  I also asked if she would pray about sending one of the rings to a Messianic fellowship in Jerusalem, and if she did, to notify Jennifer L Joy or me. 

After Isfiya (Carmel Assembly) I went to the ancient seaport Dor (right next to where I was staying) and just sat on the beach, praying and ministering to the LORD.

Thursday 10/14 - Today is the beginning of Ramadan. I feel the weight of the Spirit on these scriptures and on this assignment. 

Today, I went to Bet She’an National Park. This is an ancient city, rich in history. (I Samuel 24 - II Samuel 5:5). Several scriptures popped out to me to proclaim over Israel, the land and the people.

1 Samuel 25:29, “Though man be risen up to pursue you and to seek your life (Israel), yet the life of (Israel) shall be bound in the living bundle with the Lord your God.  And the lives of your enemies, them shall He sling out, as out of the center of a sling”. I also read and proclaimed Isaiah 40 over Israel from this place with emphasis on vs. 5.  I called forth the restoration of the Davidic Tabernacle and a people of His Presence and Praise, proclaiming over Israel from Amos 9:8-15!  Hallelujah, Lord! 

Prayed Acts 15:13-18 and Daniel 4:37…I prayed in the Mighty Name of Yeshua and asked the Lord to bring forth this REDEMPTIVE CONSECRATION of all the kings and leaders of all the Babylons everywhere. O Lord, as You did with Nebuchadnezzar, so now do with all the pagan leaders of the world, that they would acknowledge the King of Kings, Yeshua, the Messiah, Son of God, Son of Man, Your Beloved and Only Begotten Son, sent to save all of mankind. Let if be, O Lord, I pray. Lord, Abba, I pray in the Holy Name of Yeshua, that Your Word will go forth today in power and will accomplish Your Purposes….So be it, AMEN

After I prayed and proclaimed the Word from the high place at Bet She’an, I poured oil at the top near a dead tree, and called forth oaks of righteousness, in Yeshua’s Name.

Friday 10/15 - Today, I went to the Lebanon border, a place called Rosh Hanrika, a place of caves and white cliffs. I poured oil at the border, and called for the re-establishment of the ancient land borders for God’s Israel. In the Name of Yeshua, I asked for Lebanon, I claimed all of the land I was standing on, I asked for the ancient borders to be restored, re-established throughout all of Israel!  I stood in the gap and repented for allowing the ancient boundary stones to be moved. Thank You Father for Your forgiveness.  Now I ask that You give to Israel and all the nations that You have joined to Israel their rightful land inheritance. AMEN! 

As I was just looking at the Lebanon Mountains and praying, I received a quick picture of God “shaking” out the blanket, like a person would do to redistribute, quick but powerful in it’s meaning. Thank You Father! I prophesied that the land and the people be restored to The Lord, in Yeshua’s Name, AMEN! and proclaimed Isaiah 51 over the land and it’s inhabitants. May it be so, O Lord, our God! 

Sabbath 10/16 - Went to Carmel Assembly, the music was in Hebrew, preaching was in Hebrew, translated into Russian from the stage, and I listened on headphones to English. What a picture of the one new man that God is creating out of this hodge-podge of humanity. I wept through most of the service for more reasons than I even know. The anointing was strong, and that is one of the reasons that I was weeping. I sat next to a very beautiful world ministry couple that has been in Israel for 11 years – she indicated that this is their hardest assignment.  The service included a Bat Mitzvah for the daughter of the Israeli pastor, very sweet, and moving.  The marriage of the ancient paths and the new covenant are rich, and very pleasing to the Lord.  If anyone thinks that we have it all right at this point, GOD will continue to reveal to us all the true worship, in Truth and in Spirit that He is seeking. 

Tears have filled my eyes all day….how can I leave Israel ?  A place that I will remember, and I pray I will be able to return. You Go GOD!!!!!! 

After visiting with Osnat, I found a small residue of oil (8 bottles of oil were furnished by Jennifer Joy – thank you Jennifer) – and I went outside the cottage, prayed and released God’s Holy Spirit to bring Truth (Yeshua) and Righteousness (The ONLY Righteousness through Yeshua) and asked that God sanctify this place, and bring revival.  I beseeched Holy Spirit to go forth (as I slung the oil representing HIS Breaking Forth) to accomplish that which Jesus commissioned the Holy Spirit to do in Yeshua’s Mighty Name, AMEN! 

Sunday 10/17- My last day in Israel I arose at 5a to read, pray and meditate on the trip.  

Jerusalem was about 2 ½ hours away, so I confirmed my route with Tamie, and off I go.  I will pick Abe up at traffic light number 2 just as I enter Jerusalem. I can’t write much about this day. It was a whirlwind! It was far greater than I could have imagined…looking at Jerusalem from Mt Olives…standing with my feet in the gates of Jerusalem after having ascended the mountain (Psalm 121 and 122) just overwhelmed me and I just took it all in.   

Standing at the Western Wall, laying my hands up on the rock, emotions welled up in me. I was able to stoop down at the wall, and pour out bottle number 8 of anointing oil (HIS Glory Coming Down Double Portion Anointing Oil 2004), asking The Lord to bring forth HIS Truth to all people, especially His Precious Jewish people. 

My guide was very well versed in all the sights – what they stood for with respect to Jews, Christians and Muslims.  It was a very educational tour as well as emotional at times.  

I pray for the opportunity to go again – in this lifetime – with a group of friends and loved ones.
