Arab Women’s Gathering at HOPE 06/07/2024

On 06/07/2024, we had around 35 Arab women leaders coming for a special meeting here at HOPE. The women joining us came from different churches around the Galilee. Our time of fellowship was very deep, and it was very important for us to come together. We had not seen each other for a long time, so it was a good reunion bringing unity among the mothers of the land. We could sense the heart of the Father and His love, as we stood together supporting one another in these troubling and challenging times in the midst of a war. Our time of worship was really powerful, and our prayers were focussed on the situation in the land, for our government and leaders, and for the Arabs in Gaza, but we were also praying against the violence within the Arab community in Israel.

Furthermore, I shared a word of encouragement from the Book of Nehemiah and the call to build a wall together and cast a vision that we should continue to stand and build together in unity, because the Lord will fight for us. The main verse I was sharing on was Nehemiah 4:20, where it says, “Wherever you hear the sound of the trumpet, join us there. Our God will fight for us!” (NIV). It was all about sounding the trumpet. I then announced the 40 days of fasting and called the women to join us in this fast, encouraging them to take the initiative “to build a wall” and “straighten the bars of the gates” in their cities and the places they are positioned in, as they walk around the city praying. Finally, we broke bread together, prayed for one another, and encouraged each other in the Lord. We had a wonderful time of fellowship around a very rich and good meal, which one of our staff, one of the mothers, had prepared for us.

Urgent Call For Prayer And Fasting!

We are sending out this urgent letter, as we want to ask you to please stand with us in prayer and fasting from the 13th till the 19th of May against an event called “The Magic Conference,” which is scheduled to take place from the 16th to the 18th of May, the days around Pentecost, in southern Israel (see below.) Many witches and wizards will be coming to Israel these days in order to participate in this occult conference. This is really dangerous, as it will be opening a doorway of evil again here in the land, so we need to cover the land in prayer. Let us pray that the Lord will stop them, that the event will be prevented from taking place in the south, and that they will be coming to bring healing instead of a curse upon the land.

Prophetic Assignment on Mount Hermon – 27th March 2022

On Sunday 27th March, Rania went to pray over the northern borders of Israel with a few sisters. They prayed for God’s protection over the land in response to a vision in which they had seen tent pegs being driven into the ground over the northern borders of Israel. They took with them prophetic elements – bread, wine, salt, oil and a tent peg, asking for confirming signs from God. The exact time that they stepped out of the car was 2:22 and they noticed a horse in the street nearby where they had parked. They prayed Isaiah 22:22, Daniel 2:21-22, Joel 2:21-22 and wrote those verses on the tent peg before striking it into the ground.

The very moment that they began to pray for the northern borders, another horse appeared and started to neigh like the sound of war. After praying, they went to check where the horse came from. It was in an enclosure and had climbed a steep hill to see Rania and her group, looking directly at them (you can see the steep bank it climbed in the photo below). The Lord was confirming that He was with them and releasing the angelic hosts with chariots to be stationed at the borders. They prayed and declared that there will be a highway between Assyria and Egypt passing through that area (Isaiah 19:23) and that reconciliation and healing will take place.

14 Day Daniel Fast until 21st April

Please join us in prayer and fasting until 21st April for Israel and for an end to the terror attacks that have taken place recently in busy locations across the land. On 22nd March, 4 people were killed in a shooting outside a mall in Beer Sheva, on 27th March, 2 people were killed in a shooting in Hadera, on 29th March, 5 people were killed in Bnei Barak (including the first policeman on the scene, an Arab Christian from Nof HaGalil – see below), on 7th April, 3 people were killed in a busy street in Tel Aviv.  Our hearts are broken for the loss of so many precious lives over the past few weeks.

“In just a little while, the wicked will be no more; though you look carefully at his place, he will not be there. But the meek shall inherit the land and delight themselves in abundant peace.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭37:10-11‬ ‭‬‬

A Hero from Nof HaGalil.
HOPE’s new premises is in Nof HaGalil, a residential area just outside of Nazareth where Arabs and Jews live together. Amir Khoury (30), a Christian Arab was the first policeman on the scene in Bnei Brak on 29th March.  He killed the terrorist but also lost his own life. Bnei Brak is an Ultra Orthodox (Haredi) town near Tel Aviv. Thousands of Israelis (religious and secular, Jews and Arabs) came to Amir’s funeral.

Canada, once again you will rise to release the river of healing over the nations!

Vision for Canada – By Rania Sayegh – 17-2-2022

While I was praying and interceding for Canada and the situation there, the Lord began to take me into a vision.I saw the streets of Canada and also the highways. On the streets, I saw a creature moving, swirling and spitting water out of its mouth. The creature looked like a serpent with 7 heads. People in the streets were fighting for their freedom with great courage but at the same time this creature was trying to release water to bring chaos to the land and get the people to be in a state of chaos in their souls with fear and anxiety. The Holy Spirit, impressed on my spirit that this creature is a leviathan spirit that is attacking the land!

The battle for men’s souls and the destiny of the nation is real. As I continued to intercede and pray for God’s deliverance and intervention, I saw the Lord as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah appearing on the scene. He moved through the streets and roared over the whole nation – every province, city and neighborhood. When He roared, I saw the people being filled with such courage that they began to join hands together and stand in prayer creating a wall that looked like a big, huge crown. The crown had 7 points, these points were regions where God’s family (army) was gathering and praying and standing together. When they stood together and gathered in prayer, I saw the river of life beginning to rise higher and higher – much higher than the river that the spirit of leviathan was releasing.

As the river rose to a higher level through the united prayers of the family, I saw a big scroll opened and the scriptures of Revelation 22:2 became alive at this moment of the history of the nation!

“In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.”
Revelation 22:2

As I continued to pray into this, the Holy Spirit began to highlight regions of gatherings and cities where it will be strategic to unlock this river:  Saskatchewan, Toronto, Vancouver, London, Cornerstone, Edmonton, and Newfoundland. As the gatherings were taking place, I saw the Lord being crowned as King of Canada and a big, huge rainbow appeared on the horizon from the west coast to the east coast of the nation.

“So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.”
Isaiah 59:19

The Lord was highlighting to me that it’s crucial for Canada to stand firm and gather in the spirit of 2 Chronicles 7:14 to combat the leviathan spirit on Tuesday 22/2!
“If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”
2 Chronicles 7:14

Time Sensitive Esther Call to Prayer and Fasting for Iran and Israel

A strategic Esther call to 44 days of prayer and fasting for the rising threat from Iran towards Israel & the nations!  

In November last year, the Lord began to speak to me during a time of prayer at HOPE in which we were watching over Iran and the growing crisis  between Iran, Israel and the nations.

On the 8th of November as I was praying for Iran, I received a vision in which I saw a huge plumbline descending over Iran’s land. As the plumbline touched the land, an earthquake struck. So I began to pray and declare that the Lord will shake everything that can be shaken, specially the evil systems in the Iranian government, so that the unshakable can remain and His kingdom will advance in mighty ways.

A few days after this prayer watch, I saw in the news that there was a powerful earthquake that hit Iran with a magnitude of 6.4 on the Richter scale in southern Hormozgan province.
(https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/467037/Powerful-6-4-magnitude-earthquake-strikes-southern-Iran)

When I saw the news and that the earthquake had a magnitude of 6.4, instantly the Holy Spirit spoke to me from Isaiah 64:1-4:

Oh, that you would rend the heavens and come down,
that the mountains would tremble before you!
As when fire sets twigs ablaze
and causes water to boil,
come down to make your name known to your enemies
and cause the nations to quake before you! 
For when you did awesome things that we did not expect,
you came down, and the mountains trembled before you.
Since ancient times no one has heard,
no ear has perceived,
no eye has seen any God besides you,
who acts on behalf of those who wait for him.

 

God was giving us a sign that He had heard our decrees and was shaking the internal structure of Iran, He will pass judgment on the evil that is taking place in the oppressive regime of the Islamic republic of Iran!
 
As we continued to watch the nation of Iran during the month of December 2021, God spoke to me through a lecture by a well-known Jewish historian named Dr. Mordechai Kidar entitled, “Will Iran’s regime collapse in 2022?” I was so drawn to this lecture that I listened to the whole 41 minutes. He explained how the anthropology of Iran is made up of so many people groups which means that the majority  are not Persian. These groups do not support the current Iranian regime. They have been waiting for a window of opportunity to start another revolution from inside the nation, turning the regime upside down again and bringing down the Islamic government. The expected timing of this possible revolution is during the week leading up to the celebration of the Iranian new year, “Noroz”. The reason for this timing is that the Wednesday preceding the Iranian year is called “Char Chambi Sori” in Farsi which means “the Wednesday of fire.”
 
On the evening of “the Wednesday of fire” everyone comes out onto the streets and lights fires. The day is known for chaos! Therefore these groups would most likely choose such a day to make an organized effort to come out onto the streets in an attempt to oppose the government. This year, “the Wednesday of Fire” falls on March the 16th. 
 
When I heard the date of “the Wednesday of Fire,” I felt instantly that the Holy Spirit was impressing on my heart to check the date that Purim falls in 2022! To my amazement, the date was also the 16th of March! 
 
When I saw this, I knew the Holy Spirit was speaking to me clearly that He is setting up something for this coming Purim, to bring judgment on the Haman spirit that has been working in Iran, and for a possible revolution that could be ignited inside the nation to bring down princes and principalities. 
 
As I continued to pray into this, I asked the Holy Spirit what He would want His watchmen to do at this time. I heard the number 44 in my spirit and realized it was connected with 22×2 from this year, 2022. I felt the Lord leading me to launch an urgent call to prayer and fasting for 44 days. This will begin on 2/2/2022, which will lead up to Purim on March 16th, which itself falls on “the Wednesday of fire” in Iran this year! 
 
After searching more on the numbers I received, 44 days of fasting and prayer, I looked to see how many years Iran’s Islamic republic has been in power. The date of the establishment of the government after the revolution was February 11th, 1979. That means on February 11th 2022, Iran’s Islamic government will have lasted 43 years and be entering into its 44th year! 
 
I knew that the Lord was speaking to me, that we are to ask Him to rend the heaven and come down over Iran and shake the regime and give courage and faith to the people of Iran to rise up and stand against this evil structure that has been threatening all the Middle East and especially the existence of Israel. 
 
After receiving this revelation from the Lord, I asked Him what He wanted us to do. He showed me that He wants the intercessors to unite globally and begin to roar His decrees over Iran and speak deliverance to her people. The Lion of the Tribe of Judah is about to roar from Zion and bring vengeance over the Haman spirit that is moving in the land. Enough is enough, Aslan is on the move! 
 
This is the decree to be released on Purim 16/3/2022! 
 
The Lord will roar from Zion
and thunder from Jerusalem;
the earth and the heavens will tremble.
But the Lord will be a refuge for his people,
a stronghold for the people of Israel. 
Joel 3:16

I believe we are called to another Esther moment in history to rise as Esthers all over the world and release our verdicts and decrees over the land of Iran for deliverance from the Haman spirit. Will you join the table of the Lord that He has set before our enemies, even as Esther created a banquet and invited the King together with her enemy “Haman?” There the battle was won! Let’s create a table before our enemies and partake of the table of the Lord, the bread and wine, and unite together for a corporate release from Zion and from the nations of the roar of the Lion of the Tribe of Judah!  

We encourage you to join us daily during these 44 days and partake of the table of the Lord with bread and wine!

At the banquet of wine the king said to Esther, “What is your petition? It shall be granted you. What is your request, up to half the kingdom? It shall be done!” 
Esther 5:6
For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”
Esther 4:14
The word of the Lord that came to Jeremiah the prophet against Elam, in the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah, saying, “Thus says the Lord of hosts:
‘Behold, I will break the bow of Elam,
The foremost of their might.
Against Elam I will bring the four winds
From the four quarters of heaven,
And scatter them toward all those winds;
There shall be no nations where the outcasts of Elam will not go.
For I will cause Elam to be dismayed before their enemies
And before those who seek their life.
I will bring disaster upon them,
My fierce anger,’ says the Lord;
‘And I will send the sword after them
Until I have consumed them.
I will set My throne in Elam,
And will destroy from there the king and the princes,’ says the Lord.
‘But it shall come to pass in the latter days:
I will bring back the captives of Elam,’ says the Lord..”
Jeremiah 49:32-39

Prayer Request for Nazareth

Nazareth has been facing times of strife in recent days caused by two feuding families. One young man was killed then houses were burnt in the revenge acts. The area affected is very close to where the first HOPE prayer house is located.

Please join us in praying for God’s comfort for those who have lost loved ones, that this cycle of revenge will stop and that there will be reconciliation and forgiveness. Also pray for healing and righteousness to rule in the city.

“And the effect of righteousness will be peace, and the result of righteousness, quietness and trust forever.”

‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭32:17‬ ‭

Rania is planning to go with a few team members to several areas in the city to take communion and intercede for forgiveness for the blood shed. Please cover these activities in prayer.

21 Day Daniel Fast 1st to 21st December

As we draw towards the end of 2021, we invite you to join us in a 21 day Daniel fast to draw closer to God and prepare for 2022. In the first chapter of Daniel, Daniel and his three friends refrain from eating the rich foods served by the king of Babylon, choosing instead to eat only fruit and vegetables. We invite those who are able to do so to fast from some of the richer things of this life and press into God during these three weeks.

11/11 Prayer and Intercession – Israel, UK and the Nations

Following a prompt from Rania’s prophetic vision about a lion roaring over the UK, HOPE gathered online with several key leaders in the UK and the nations on the 11th November. Representatives from each of the four nations that form the UK made prophetic declarations of repentance for their nation’s previous treatment of the Jewish people and realigned themselves with God’s plans for Israel and the Nations. At 11:11, the gathering released a roar together with the blowing of shofars and trumpets.

The declarations included:

“The time has come to favour Zion. The weeping is turning into a roar. We are one family, aligned for your purposes, sounding the trumpet for awakening and taking the keys for the ancient doors.”

Psalm 24:7:  “Lift up your heads, O you gates! And be lifted up, you everlasting doors! And the King of glory shall come in.”

“2017 was the 100th Anniversary of the Balfour Declaration. In April 2022, a group of Anglican Church leaders together with representatives from other denominations will gather to acknowledge the role of the church in antisemitism in the UK which started in 1222 at the Synod of Oxford.”

“We come before you in repentance for what we as a nation have done to Israel when we had the mandate. We seem to have drawn back from that responsibility. The doors are beginning to open again. We pray that this time we will go through and restore our relationship with Israel.”

“The roar of God will bring the Word, the Spirit and power to remove the darkness that covers the people as your body rises up in unity together. Come and open their eyes so that they can see the Gospel of the Glory of Christ.”

Ezekiel 43:2: “And behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east. His voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shone with His glory.”

“We call to the firstborn and say, return to your Abba! Bride, return to your husband!”

“As a Jewish Israeli, I extend forgiveness on behalf of the Jewish people. Thank you for bringing us together with bonds of love. Where there is unity, God commands a blessing.”

“We stand in a day of mercy. We are one family, one nation with one inheritance. This is the day of the coming of the King of all kings. We stand with England and the nations in prayer and repentance.”

Joel 3:16: “The LORD also will roar from Zion, And utter His voice from Jerusalem; The heavens and earth will shake; But the LORD will be a shelter for His people, And the strength of the children of Israel.”

“We declare over the church in the British Isles, ‘Your remnant will walk fully in the covenants you have established. The outpouring of God’s love will spill over into the Jewish communities.’”

“British Isles, you have given us our identity. You are a mother in the nations, a mother to Israel. The church that is coming will surpass all that has been before. Many times you have repented of pride but remember that pride is also a group of lions. You are fierce, you are a warrior people. Do not be shy, do not be silent, be the people God has called you to be!”

“From Israel, we honor our UK family. We are cheering you on as Arabs and Jews in unity in as response to Jesus prayer in John 17. We are one, one new man. A bold lion, releasing righteousness and birthing the second wave of awakening.”
