Yom Kippur Prayer Call – Israel and China

On the Day of Atonement, 16th September, Rania joined with 105 Chinese believers from mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macao, America and Canada to pray into her Vision of the Eagle and the Rooster. Several key international leaders including Rick and Patricia Ridings, Sue Rowe and Orna Grinman joined this One New Man strategic prayer call. They joined together to repent for any evil alliances that the nations have been making, closing the doors to the evil that has been released over the last two years and opening the gates for God’s Kingdom to move forward from China back to Jerusalem. We are including a short summary of some of the highlights from this important prayer call:
  • God is raising up an army from the East, from the womb of the dawn (Psalm 110:3). Many believers in China are mourning over what has happened in this past season, but the Lord says that He will bring the dew. It is darkest right before the dawn. We are at the dawning of a new day. Awaken China and the Middle East to You and Your purposes!
  • The Lord has allowed some shakings. He sent us to hide in our rooms for a time, but now God is opening doors to go back to Jerusalem. God used the time we were hidden behind doors to cleanse and purify us. Now I believe we are coming into a season where He is closing some doors and opening others. We can close the doors to violence and hatred through the Key of David. Using that same key, we can open a door in heaven for more blessings to come down. We ask for forgiveness for times where in America, Israel and China we have worshipped the spirit of Mammon and where greed has encouraged evil destructive alliances.
  • As the eagle is a such a picture of God, bats are a sign of witchcraft and evil. Today, we take the Key of the House of the Tabernacle of David and we say let there be a closing of the door to hell from which these bats have come to bring such devastation on the earth. During this very special day of Yom Kippur, we command those bats to go back into the gates of Hell in the name of Yeshua. We take that same Key of David and we open every door that needs to open for travel along the Silk Road back to Jerusalem. We command the western gate from China to open into Central Asia, the Middle East and Jerusalem. Let the River of Life flow from China back to Jerusalem and drive back the spirit of death, may it bring millions out of death and into life. In the name of Yeshua.
  • The Lord is saying that you are looking at ploughed ground in which seed is being sown that will bear fruit in the future. The season has shifted. The warfare has shifted and thus the rooster is crowing. There is an awakening that God is calling us as forerunners into. There have been earthquakes and devastations everywhere, both physical and political. God said, “You are in the days of Noah” (Matthew 24:27). Yom Kippur carries a bigger weight this year than ever before. The rooster is crowing and the sound of war is in the atmosphere, but it is not a sound of fear for us. It is the sound of hope. Thus the eagle must rise. There is a significant alignment that the Lord is causing us to join today, both individual and corporate. The Lord is shouting over the Silk Road.
    The prayer movement is shifting into a watchman movement. Watchmen are living in community and working together. We are going into a time of wrestling, and God is calling His watchmen to stand firm.
  • We mature when we come into unity. The rooster and the hen cover the chicks. As we become a family in unity and oneness, then authority is released and we can rise up like eagles. There are Isaiah 42 gatherings in Asia. The Chinese must come into the fullness of their destiny at this time. As we cross over into the new year this Rosh Hashana, I feel a strength in my spirit and a call to no longer slumber. We have come to the time of Noah and a group of us are going to Sudan. In Genesis 9 the curse began when the two generations separated. Ham dishonoured his father. The Sudan church is in great division but has a small window of opportunity before the elections next year for the church to come together for revival. There is opposition, but what is needed now is the anointing of family and oneness. I feel a need for prayer to break that curse over Africa and the entire land. This trip to Sudan also signifies part of the Chinese people entering into their destiny.
  • One pastor shared that she had a dream about Rania on the day before she received the invite to this prayer call. In her dream she was on a family trip. The bus was running fast along a high mountain ridge (both sides were like a cliff). The road was narrow but flat. Suddenly they saw a familiar restaurant. Because of the high speed, they missed it but decided to make U-turn back to this restaurant which had a buffet. Everyone enjoyed the meal and chatting. Suddenly Rania appeared outside the window. She knocked on the window and asked, “Can I join you?” The pastor opened the window and replied, “Of course! welcome! You come in and join us!” Then she woke up from the dream.

After sharing the Lord’s Supper together, the meeting ended with the Chinese intercessors releasing a shout and a roar of the River of Life to bless Israel and the Middle East.

Rania’s Vision of the Eagle and the Rooster – A call to Prayer on Yom Kippur

Watch therefore, for you do not know when the master of the house is coming—in the evening, at midnight, at the crowing of the rooster, or in the morning 
Mark 13:35
While taking my time with the Lord on the 10th of September in the morning, I was burdened to pray for the Middle East. I began to pray for the situations in Afghanistan and Israel, especially with the terrorists that had escaped from prison.

I began to see in the Spirit an eagle that was hovering and flying over Israel from the North to the South and from East to West.  He was going in circles and was watching with his fiery eyes intently over the land and was getting ready to land for an attack on his prey. As I was seeing this, I began to pray that the eyes of the eagle would be opened to protect and cover the land. I knew that this eagle was the Lord covering the land and that He was going to bring a turnaround of victory over a planned hidden assignment of the enemy. He was watching in order to release His angels for an attack.

Then I was taken to China in my vision where I saw that the map of China looks like a rooster. The whole area began to come alive as if it had become a real rooster! The rooster began to crow and released a call, and then I heard the statement, “When the rooster crows his call the eagle will soar.” Then I began to see the rooster crowing and the sound began to resonate from the East, then the rooster continued to crow and moved its head to the North and then the South. When this happened, as it turned to the West, the head and the whole body began to transform into an eagle. As it began to transform, I saw his feathers changing and his beak and face and eyes piercing, then it began to rise up from the land and take off. As this huge eagle took off other smaller eagles from the North, East and South began to join him, all heading towards the west side of the land as an army prepared for battle. When they reached the western gate of the nation, the western gate they were approaching was a huge ancient golden gate which I saw was slightly cracked open. As all this eagle army began screeching, they were approaching the golden gate and the power of the vibration from the sound began to push the gate open more and more until at the very moment the eagles reached the gate, the gate  opened and all those eagles break through the gate out heading towards the Silk Road. The moment the eagle broke through the gate, I saw a river of water begin to flow from this ancient gate towards the Silk Road and wash and remove the stones from the highway!

I feel that this is a midnight hour call to release the crow of the rooster at the fourth watch for the dawn of a new day. I feel that the Lord is giving us a strategy to unite together with China, US and Israel on Yom Kippur to release a midnight cry approaching the mercy seat for a turnaround as the army rises for battle over the Middle East, China and the US. We will release the sound of freedom and healing to the lands and appeal to heaven for the sake of God’s covenant to be established in these lands as the eagles gather and release the cry of victory for such a time as this. 

But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ 
Matthew 25:6
So Moses said, “Thus says the Lord: About midnight I will go out in the midst of Egypt.
Exodus 11:4
The Lord said to my Lord,
“Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.”
The Lord shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion.
Rule in the midst of Your enemies!
Your people shall be volunteers, in the day of Your power; in the beauties of holiness, from the womb of the morning, You have the dew of Your youth. 
Psalm 110:2-3

New Building Premises – Fall 2021

 

At this time of new beginnings, we are excited to share with you a SUDDENLY that God surprised us with. A few weeks ago, God led Rania to a recently refurbished rental property which amazingly meets all our requirements at the present time. The space is 200 square meters divided into two main areas: the first area is already renovated to be used as a coffee area and can also be used for training and fellowship for about 30-35 people, the second hall can be used for the prayer room, regular meetings and training days for youth and women for about 75-80 people. There is also a space for an office. Please see the video below for more info about this opportunity. The owner turned out to be a classmate of Rania’s from 30 years ago! The space is available to rent for now but there is a possibility that it will be for sale in the future with an option of including another floor. After some time in prayer we felt to move forward with this new building opportunity, we are now in a time of preparing the space and will be moving on the 1st of November.

We are so grateful to everyone who gave already towards the purchase of a new building. We will continue to search for a property that we can buy, either in the same building that we are renting, or at a different location as the Lord leads. All the funds donated for the purchase of a new property will be reserved for that purpose only. To donate towards the rental property, please select [New Building Operational Costs] when you give.

 

New Year 5782 and Building the House

Next month on the evening of the 6th of September, we will enter into a new Jewish year 5782. The prophetic artist, James Nesbitt has illustrated the significance of this year in his beautiful artwork, Building the House. This year is an intense time of building what the enemy cannot overcome. If the Lord puts it on your heart to give a Firstfruits gift at this strategic time, please follow this link to give online or see the other giving options at the end of this newsletter. More details about the new building will be sent next week.

Change of Date for Upcoming Arab Deborahs Conference

Due to the reintroduction of restrictions on the numbers of people gathering together, we are postponing the upcoming Arab Deborahs Arising Conference.

Please pray for God’s perfect timing when He will allow us to gather, particularly for Israel’s borders to open to allow our international team members to join us. Please see the prayer section for more details on praying for this event.

Completed Guest House Bathroom Renovations

While we are waiting for Israel’s borders to open, we took the opportunity to update HOPE’s guesthouse bathrooms. These bathrooms were over 40 years old and really needed the renovations to be ready to receive guests again soon. Please see the video below with the finished bathroom photos.

New Focus for Youth Meetings: the Secrets of the Vine

In August, we began a new focus for HOPE’s youth meetings, looking at the Secrets of the Vine from John 15:1-4. Rania had been praying and reflecting on recent revelations on the current season of sifting and threshing (see her vision of the Bride in the Field of Wheat), and preparing for a new series on the testing of our faith. During this time, one of HOPE’s intercessors had a dream about a vinedresser cutting and pruning a vine:

She saw herself standing in a farm where a farmer was pushing a cart full of branches. These branches were large, green and fresh vine branches. The man pushing the cart was the vinedresser. He was picking the long vine branches and gathering them in bunches and then placing them in the cart. She asked, “Why are you cutting off these branches, they look so beautiful? Why are you in such a hurry to cut and prune this vine?” He answered, “I have given it some time.” It seemed to her that these branches had been given time to bear fruit yet they did not yield any. The vinedresser put all these branches into the cart and took them away from the vine. She pleaded with the man, “Please, give it more time, give it another chance!” Then another man appeared and he was gentle, standing before the vinedresser with loving eyes. She felt that this man was the Lord Jesus. He spoke to the vinedresser and said, “Give them another chance!”

“I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes a so that it will be even more fruitful. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.”
John15:1-4

 

Global Prayer Call for Israel and the Nations

Rania was invited to join an international prayer meeting hosted by the Global Prayer Call, interceding for Jerusalem, Israel and the Middle East.

As the battle for Jerusalem is becoming more and more intense, the Temple Mount is taking central position: who will be finally and eternally worshiped on this Holy Hill? The birth pangs for the Kingdom of God are intensifying and the preparations for the return of the Lord are progressing, the royal priesthood from many nations are being called to attention. We are being united, cleansed, equipped and commissioned for our call not to be silent for Jerusalem’s sake. And at the same time, we are each being trained to intercede for our respective nations sake and their attitudes towards Jerusalem.
