Please consider this invitation to intercede for: The Peace of Jerusalem; The Salvation of Israel; and The Jewish People Throughout the World During >>> The 10 Days of Awe <<< 2015 Monday, September 14th – Wednesday, September 23rd From Rosh Hashanah (The Day of Trumpets) To Yom Kippur (The Day of Atonement) 10 DAYS ISRAEL PRAYER GUIDE 2015 By John Moore, Intercessor, Facilitator PSN Israel Wednesday Prayer Call 10 DAYS ISRAEL PRAYER GUIDE 2015 begins on Page 3. “The Short Version” is posted on www.nationalhighwayofprayer.net. Isaiah 62:1-2, 6-7 “For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep quiet, until her righteousness goes forth like brightness, and her salvation like a torch that is burning. The nations will see your righteousness… On your walls, O Jerusalem, I have appointed watchmen; All day and all night they will never keep silent. You who remind the LORD, take no rest for yourselves; And give Him no rest until He establishes And makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.” 1 VISION AND COMMISSION The goal of this prayer guide is to provide a platform for 10 days of fasting and united prayer for the nation of Israel to hasten the vision of Jerusalem being fully established as a praise in the earth. Agreement with God in prayer for Israel will bring Glory to His Name in Zion and fulfill Israel’s destiny by establishing her as a source of blessing to all the families of the earth. Her deepest need is to behold her King the promised Messiah, Yeshua Ben David. Yeshua, in the great commission told His disciples to preach the Gospel beginning in Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and then the uttermost parts of the earth. Luke 24:47; Acts 1:8. Take up the mantle, be a part of what God is doing through prayer for His people Israel. If you sense God is calling you to be a part of this prayer effort commit to fast and pray during Ten Days Israel for His people beginning September 14th (Rosh Hashanah) thru September 23rd 2015 (Yom Kippur). In this way all who participate will be a strategic part of fulfilling the scriptural mandate of Isaiah 62:6. 1 Map of Israel courtesy of Discover Israel Travel & Tourism Guide. www1.american.edu 2 THE CALL OF GOD CONCERNING ISRAEL The Apostle Paul wrote, “My hearts desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they might be saved.” (Romans 10:1) As Christians part of our mission is to win Israel over to God by fervent prayer, and walking with The God of Abraham in such a way that The Holy Spirit generates in them a holy jealousy. That jealousy undergirded by fervent effectual prayer is transformed by The Spirit into a deep hunger and thirst for God that leads to worship, the ultimate goal of missions. Paul wrote further, “I am talking to you Gentiles. In as much as I am the Apostle to the Gentiles I make much of my ministry, in the hope that I may somehow arouse my own people to envy and save some of them. For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?” (Romans 11:13-15) Having experienced the compassion and love of The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob as living recipients of the atoning sacrifice of Messiah, we are called by God to play a part in their resurrection. As the times of the Gentiles are rapidly drawing to a close the reviving and resurrecting breath of God is coming upon all Israel in fulfillment of Hebrew prophecy. (Ezekiel 37:5-6; Joel 2:28-31) We are privileged as intercessors to cooperate with The Holy Spirit in this outpouring of grace and blessing associated with the revelation of Christ as Messiah to His own people. (Zechariah 12:10-11) Paul said these amazing words, "For I could wish that I myself were accursed, separated from Christ for the sake of my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh, who are Israelites, to whom belongs the adoption as sons, and the glory and the covenants and the giving of the Law and the temple service and the promises.” (Romans 9:3-4) Paul was willing to lay his life down for his people and even be separated from Christ for their sake. Yielding to the call of The Holy Spirit to fast and intercede is a response to Romans 12:1. “Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.” Worship is in fact the goal of missions2, and it is of the highest order of service and love to intercede for the children of Israel. Intercessors, we are standing at the door of the great end times revival promised to God’s people. Enter in and take up your place. 2 John Piper, Let The Nations Be Glad: The Supremacy Of God In Missions, (Grand Rapids: Baker Academic, 2010),35. 3 10 DAYS ISRAEL PRAYER GUIDE 2015 DAILY FORMAT Day 1 – Monday, September 14th PRAYER FOCUS: ROSH HASHANA (The Feast of Trumpets) The head or beginning of a new spiritual year celebrated on the first day of the seventh month Tishri and ushered in by the blowing of the trumpets. SCRIPTURE Leviticus 23:24-25 “Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a Sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation. 25 Ye shall do no servile work therein: but ye shall offer an offering made by fire unto the LORD.” PRAYER POINTS 1. In Lev 23: 24 this day is declared to be a “Holy Convocation”. Let us open our hearts to the gaze of Our Beloved and ask His forgiveness and turn away from of anything that would hinder our total personal devotion to Yeshua and relationships with one another. 2. Pray for the Body of Messiah to be awakened by the trumpets into fervent watchfulness and preparation for this Ten Day journey to the Day of Atonement the doorway into the coming year. 3. Pray the Body of Messiah will enter into the Sabbath rest of the Lord by faith in the completed work of Messiah on the cross. 4.

Pray for the Lord to speak by His Holy Spirit through His word and prophetically and for an ear to truly hear what he is saying in this hour to His bride. 4 Day 2 – Tuesday, September 15th PRAYER FOCUS: One New man SCRIPTURE Ephesians 2:11 Therefore remember that formerly you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called “Uncircumcision” by the so-called “Circumcision,” which is performed in the flesh by human hands— 12 remember that you were at that time separate from Christ, excluded from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. 13 But now in Christ Jesus you who formerly were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. 14 For He Himself is our peace, who made both groups into one and broke down the barrier of the dividing wall, 15 by abolishing in His flesh the enmity, which is the Law of commandments contained in ordinances, so that in Himself He might make the two into one new man, thus establishing peace” PRAYER POINTS 1. Pray for repentance and the healing of schisms and divisions in Body of Messiah. 2. Pray for true unity and support of Israel amongst leaders in the church worldwide. 3. Pray for a spirit of reconciliation to grip the soul of the church and that it will be followed by unified action and outreach. 4. Pray for transformation of the Jewish and Christian religious heart of stone into a heart of flesh that responds in forgiveness, love, compassion, and mercy. 5. Pray against replacement theology and all other belief systems that deny Israel’s scriptural place in the Kingdom of God and lay a false foundation that undermines God’s order and reality of the One New Man Day 3 – Wednesday, September 16th PRAYER FOCUS: Pray for national security.

SCRIPTURE 5 Psalms 2:1 Why are the nations in an uproar And the peoples devising a vain thing? 2 The kings of the earth take their stand And the rulers take counsel together Against the LORD and against His Anointed, saying, 3 “Let us tear their fetters apart And cast away their cords from us!” 4 He who sits in the heavens laughs, The Lord scoffs at them. 5 Then He will speak to them in His anger And terrify them in His fury, saying, 6 “But as for Me, I have installed My King Upon Zion, My holy mountain.” 7 “I will surely tell of the decree of the LORD: He said to Me, ‘You are My Son, Today I have begotten You.

    2007 Israeli Democracy Index Is Dedicated to Captain Zur Zarhi from Nahalal, a Beloved Friend Who Went to War and Did Not Come Back

The Institute proposes policy recommendations and reforms for government and public administration agencies. In its plans and endeavors, the Institute strives to support the institutions of Israel’s developing democracy and consolidate its values. The Institute’s research is followed up by practical recommendations, seeking to improve governance in Israel and foster a long-term vision for a stable democratic regime adapted to the structure, the values, and the norms of Israeli society. The Institute aspires to further public discourse in Israel on the issues placed on the national agenda, to promote structural, political, and economic reforms, to serve as a consulting body to decision-makers and the broad public, to provide information, and present comparative research.

About the Research This book reviews the struggle for hegemony in Jerusalem between secular and ultra-orthodox (haredi) Jews. It examines the democratic deficit in urban politics formed by the rise of the haredi minority to power, and proposes ways to rectify this deficit. The study addresses the following questions: What are the characteristics of the urban democratic deficit? How did the haredi minority become a leading political force in the city? What are the implications of the democratic deficit from the perspective of the various cultural groups? What can be done in view of the fact that the non-haredi population is not only under-represented but also feels threatened and prejudiced by urban politics initiated by the city council? About the Floersheimer Institute for Policy Studies In recent years the importance of policy-oriented research has been increasingly acknowledged. Dr. Stephen H. Floersheimer initiated the establishment of a research institute that would concentrate on studies of long- range policy issues.

    Israeli Elections Bulletin | September 20 On 17 September Israelis voted for the second time in five months. Our final bulletin analyses the results and asks what happens next. Final Election Results Netanyahu fails to win 61 seat majority With nearly 100 per cent of the votes counted in the Israeli general election, Benny Gantz’s Blue and White party beat Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud by two seats (33-31), Avigdor Liberman’s Yisrael Beitenu party won 8 seats, compared to 5 in April, retaining its position as the kingmaker of any future coalition. Overall the centre-left/Arab bloc of parties outperformed the right-wing/ultra- Orthodox bloc by two seats - 57 to 55 with Lieberman’s party currently on the fence. 69.4 per cent of eligible voters turned out to vote, an increase of 1.5 per cent compared to April’s election. The key results of the election were the surge in support for Lieberman which was likely fuelled by moderate right-wing voters, perhaps previous Kulanu voters, who decided not to support Likud. The increased support for Arab parties was also crucial and voter turnout in Arab communities was much higher, at 60 per cent compared to 49 per cent in April. It’s possible the higher voter turnout was a reaction to Netanyahu’s proposal to put cameras in polling stations in Arab communities and his repeated allegations of Arab voter fraud. Netanyahu’s call yesterday for immediate national unity talks with Gantz were rebuffed by the Blue and White leader, who declared victory and said his party would “not be dictated to.” Gantz re-stated his intention to form a broad and liberal unity government.

  • Israel, Middle East

    Israel, Middle East

    Review of the Year OTHER COUNTRIES Israel and the Middle East Israel X HE VIOLENCE THAT BEGAN in late 2000 and continued all through 2001—featuring Palestinian suicide bombings aimed at pro- ducing a maximum of Israeli casualties, and Israeli reprisals—did not abate in 2002; in fact, it intensified. Tough new measures by the Likud- led coalition, including stepped-up "targeted killings'1 of terror kingpins and large-scale incursions into Palestinian areas—such as Operation De- fensive Shield in the spring—brought only temporary halts to the attacks on Israelis and sharp criticism from around the world. An exception to the unsympathetic attitude toward Israel in world cap- itals was that of the American government. Although President George W. Bush became the first president explicitly to call for a Palestinian state, he delivered a speech on June 24 announcing that the Palestinian National Authority would have to undergo democratization, renounce terror, and select new leadership (that is, not Yasir Arafat) first. Toward the end of the year, with a U.S. strike on Iraq looming, the U.S., the UN, the European Union (EU), and the chief European powers promoted a "road map," charting steps that Israel and the Palestinians might take to reach an ultimate settlement. The security crisis loomed large over Israeli life. The economy, already hard-hit by more than a year of violence, suffered further blows. And while the Labor Party left the coalition and brought down the government on October 30 ostensibly over a budgetary matter, what was really at stake was whether Labor could devise a strategy for stopping the bloodshed that would be both different from Likud's and convincing to the voters.
