Mount Ebal and Mount Gerizim

Continuing the journey to the seven mountains of Israel, six Jewish and Arab women traveled to Mount Kabir in the region of Elon Moreh. Mount Kabir is 745m above sea level and to the north-east of Shechem. This mountain is surrounded by Mount Ebal and Mount Gerizim, the mountains from which the tribes of Israel were instructed to pronounce blessings and curses in Deuteronomy 27. This was a continuation of the journey that had begun in 2019, following God’s prophetic word to Rania (7 Mountains Vision).

Mount Kabir has a view overlooking the river of Tirzah. Tirzah was one of the five daughters of Zelophehad who received an inheritance in Israel (Numbers 27). We prayed over Shechem and the entire region, asking God to release blessings from Mount Gerizim. We asked God for the harvest in this area and for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit – our visit was a few days before Pentecost.

We took communion together and declared that the Lord would remove any curse of bloodshed over the land and replace it with a blessing from both Jew and Arab. That morning, I, Rania had been awakened at 4:44 am. I understood that the Lord was asking me to declare the return of his glory from the northern gate:

“Then the man brought me by way of the north gate to the front of the temple. I looked and saw the glory of the Lord filling the temple of the Lord, and I fell facedown.”

Ezekiel 44:4

We also declared:

“For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground;

I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants.

They will spring up like grass in a meadow, like poplar trees by flowing streams.”

Isaiah 43:3-4

Prayer Journey to Mount Hermon

On March 15th, seven women – three Arabs, three Jews and an English Gentile –  came together for a prayer journey to Mount Hermon in the North of Israel. Our purpose was to continue the journey to the seven mountains of Israel that had begun in 2019, following God’s prophetic word to Rania (7 Mountains Vision). The 5th and highest mountain, Mount Hermon was yet to be accomplished.
During this time of the global coronavirus (COVID-19), we felt it was important to visit the highest mountain in Israel. The name corona comes from the Latin for the word crown, thus we were led to go to the highest place in Israel and crown Jesus as King over the land of Israel and all the nations of the earth.
“Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! It is like the precious oil upon the head, running down on the beard, the beard of Aaron, running down on the edge of his garments. It is like the dew of Hermon, descending upon the mountains of Zion; For there the Lord commanded the blessing— life forevermore.

Psalm 133

First we came together and broke bread. The Lord had told me to blow a shofar and to arrive before 2.22pm. So we prepared our hearts to reach the top of Mount Hermon about half an hour beforehand and then blew the shofar at 2.22pm. See video below.

[Since the beginning of the year, God had been speaking to me about the numbers 222. For example, Revelation 22:2 where the river of life flows. God had told me to blow the shofar and declare over the highest mountain that the Lord will release His dew and the waters of life to clean and heal our land.]

We also took with us the prophetic elements of water, oil, salt, bread and wine.

We stood and prayed and interceded. With the shofar blowing, we declared: 

“Lift up your heads, you gates; lift them up, you ancient doors, that the King of glory may come in. Who is He, this King of glory? The Lord Almighty—He is the King of glory.”

Psalm 24:9-10,

We repented for divisions in the church, unforgiveness and racism. As Arabs, Jews and Gentiles together, we began to ask the Lord to heal the land. We repented for lukewarmness in the church and declared our love for the land, pledging allegiance to the Lord. We repented for the evil alliances between governments which had allowed a plague to come. We prayed for a deeper unity and that the Lord would shake the evil thrones as He is now doing and instead establish His kingdom which will rule over these governments. We prayed for righteous alliances between nations, that God’s throne will be established in these governments and founded on righteousness, truth and justice.

“I was watching in the night visions, and behold, One like the Son of Man, coming with the clouds of heaven! He came to the Ancient of Days, and they brought Him near before Him. Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve Him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, And His kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed.”

 Daniel 7:13 &14

In a prophetic act, we took the crown and crowned the LORD over the highest mountain and declared Daniel 7: 9-13 & 21-28. As we held up the crown, the clouds parted in the sky above us and the sun shone.

We prayed for the healing of the land, for a release of the river of healing over governments and over the coronavirus. God had spoken to me beforehand to bring a specific bottle of oil that had been given to me in 2019. So I took this oil which is in a glass bottle shaped like a crown that had been a gift from a Jewish sister and was made according to the recipe in Exodus 30. Then, to my amazement, one of the Jewish sisters there with me explained the meaning of the name of the giver of the oil – her name is Tal Aharoni. Aharoni comes from the name Aaron, from the priestly tribe and Tal means dew (Psalm 133).

We poured the oil and the wine on the ground and sprinkled the salt as preservation and a reminder of God’s covenant. We built an altar to the Lord.

Women’s Online Prayer 23rd March 2020

We set a time on Zoom to gather together with the Arab mothers of the land who carry authority and influence for the Galilee region and Jerusalem. Rania felt led from 2 Samuel 24 to gather them to build an altar so that God will hear from heaven and stop the plague of coronavirus in Israel.

We began with an act of repentance before the Lord for the bloodshed of the innocent through abortion. Rania had been struck when she heard a woman from England share how God had spoken to her through the statistics that she found while searching for the possible percentage of deaths that COVID 19 could cause relative to the population of England. She found a prediction of 8 million people who could die from this plague. She cried out to God in intercession and asked how the enemy could have such a legal right for so many people? To her astonishment, God told her to check how many abortions had taken place in the UK – 8 million babies! That finding was so shocking to her that it brought her to her knees to cry out for mercy and that God would spare the nation of England from the consequences of this sin and from the blood crying out from the ground.

This story moved Rania’s heart and gave her a burden to call the women together to take our position as mothers in the land and stand in the gap and repent for the bloodshed of the innocent babies in Israel among the Arab community. Therefore we gathered to repent together corporately as 19 women came together, sharing hearts, repenting and building an altar to the Lord. Each woman brought 12 stones from her region to carry out this prophetic act.

Priscilla joined us on this call and shared deep thoughts and revelations from the Lord and her personal journey on the matter of abortion in the US and the power of the communion table shared by the body of Christ all around America for declaring the power of the blood of Jesus which is more powerful and speaks louder than the blood of Abel. We felt that the Lord shifted something in the atmosphere of our land on that day. We are so grateful to the Lord for the opportunity to partner with His heart as women of the land and to be used humbly by God to shift the course of history over our nation.

Vision: the Lion & the 7 Mountains – December 2018

“The Lord roars from Zion, and utters his voice from Jerusalem, and the heavens and the earthquake. But the Lord is a refuge to his people, a stronghold to the people of Israel.”

Joel 3:16

At the end of our 40 days of fasting that we began on November 11th, and ended December 21st, I saw a vision in our Friday night youth meeting.

I saw a vision of the Lion of Judah jumping on the seven mountaintops of Israel. There was a candlestick on the top of each mountain, and when the Lion roared over each mountain it lit up the candle that was on it with fire. I saw seven candles lit atop the seven mountains, it formed a menorah of seven candles on fire. Then I heard the Lord saying to me, “watch me in these next seven months.” I feel the Lord is going to light up the candles atop the seven mountains in Israel, and that the Lord is asking for my & others partnership to do this.

We are going to begin to see a move of the Holy Spirit in the land like never before. This is the year 5779, and nine represents the nine gifts of the Spirit and the nine fruits of the Spirit. The Lord is saying that He is going to release the fullness of the Spirit and the seven spirits of God to the land.

“And the Spirit of the Lord shall rest upon him, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.”

Isaiah 11:2

These are the mountains I feel the Lord has been highlighting to me to go and pray on:

* Mount Gilboa
* Mount Precipice
* Mount Carmel
* Mount Gerizim and Mount Ebal
* Mount Zion
* Mount Hermon
* Mount Tabor

I’ve shared the vision with two Jewish women & another Arab woman. The four of us will go to these mountains to pray, to partner with the Lord in prayer and intercession, and to do the prophetic acts He leads us to do. We will see these candlesticks lit up again! The Lord showed me He is about to restore and take back the high places of Israel.

When a lion roars, one of the major things that happens is a shaking that the vibration of his sound creates. It says in Joel 3:16 when the Lord roars there will be shakings and earthquakes. Also, when a lion roars he is claiming back his property and declaring the borders of his dominion. When the Lion of the Tribe of Judah roars, He is declaring victory over His enemies and releasing fear and trembling in the camps of the enemies.

The Lord has highlighted to us Ezekiel 6 and 36 when Ezekiel prophecies over the mountains of Israel. The Lord is asking His people to turnaround and return to Him with all their hearts. This turning will cause idols to fall first from the hearts of His people, Israel, and then the Lord will be able to take back the mountains. On top of the mountains, often times sacrifices to idols took place. The Lord is wanting to deal with the sin of idolatry, compromise, and complacency amongst His people. He is wanting to take back the high places so that His Name and His Name alone will be lifted up over the nation of Israel.

The candlesticks represent the seven spirits of God on the menorah which is the work and move of the Holy Spirit. The menorah is the symbol of the nation of Israel, and He wants to light up the candles on this menorah again. An enlightenment of the hearts of the people of the land is coming, and the people of this land are going to see their Messiah. He is the only way, the truth, and the light. I believe that God wants to bring a great harvest of Jewish and Arab souls this year. As the Lion roars, He proclaims that no one will touch His people and that they belong to him and him alone!

Dream: Tsunami Warning January 2019

On January 14th, a friend of mine from the HOPE Intercessory Team had a dream. She saw herself taken to a beach in the land of Israel. People were there and relaxing. Suddenly, she was standing as a watchman in a watchtower, and in the distance, she could see a huge tsunami approaching. She pointed her finger at the tsunami and partnered with God in prayer to stop the tsunami. As she continued to pray in the name of Jesus, the tsunami became like one drop.

When she woke up from the dream, she knew it this was a real warning. This a warning from the Lord to pray against any possible upcoming earthquakes that could cause a tsunami. On the evening of January 24th, I was in my home with my family, and everything began shaking. A 3.6 magnitude earthquake hit the Nazareth and the Galilee area. We were grateful for God’s protection as no harm has happened to us, our family, or our property.

The day after the earthquake, I was cooking in HOPE and I felt the Holy Spirit show me that as the earthquake was a 3.6 magnitude I should read Ezekiel 36. To my surprise, the next day I received a text from an intercessor whom I have never met. She saw a prayer request I had posted asking for protection from earthquakes over our land, and she had a word to send to me, she also had heard Ezekiel 36 for me. I knew then that there was no doubt God was speaking and connecting the vision of the lion roaring with the earthquake. In fact, when the earthquake happened, we heard a sound outside our home that sounded like thunder or a bomb.

Others heard it too, and reported in the Jerusalem Post

The Lord is highlighting to us that He is on the move. When the lion roars, shakings begin, the Bible says that the heavens and the earth will tremble and shake at the sound of the Lord’s roar. He is also inviting us to partner in intercession against any possible bigger earthquake that will cause a tsunami in our land.

Following the earthquake, the daughter of some good friends of mine who are Jewish leaders in the land of Israel received a warning dream of a coming tsunami hitting the shores of Tel Aviv. So we know that God is really speaking to us, and confirming his word by two or more witnesses.

We covet your prayers to stand as watchmen in the nations to pray for Israel, for protection, and a reversal of any looming crisis in the future that could be caused by an earthquake and result in a tsunami. Please pray with us that God would have mercy on Israel and that the people of the land would return with all their hearts in humility and repentance. For the Lord in His anger always loves mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.

A call to 40 Days Prayer and Fasting – November 2018

 

We would like to invite you to join us for 40 days of prayer and fasting from November 11th until December 21st.  The focus of this fast is on Jesus being more than enough.  We desire to experience an awakening of our love for Jesus as we ask Him to come and pour out fresh oil in our lamps.  We want to stay bright and burning with His love and fire!  During the fast, we will be doing a 21-day brain detox by Dr. Caroline Leaf where we will learn how to break down toxic thoughts and much more.

Many of the young people in our community have responded to this call, as well as both Arab and Jewish women from the congregations around Israel. We believe this will be a powerful time to shake off any tiredness and to be reignited with a burning passion to partner with the Lord in prayer & worship.  We will push through until there is a breakthrough in our hearts and land!

We would also appreciate your prayers for us here at HOPE as we have gone through many changes in recent days.  We have especially had a lot of changes in our staff and would appreciate you covering all those who serve at HOPE in prayer.

We are excited to partner with you all during this time of fasting and prayer!

Dream of Hungry Children – June 2018

A dream Rania had on June 6th 2018:

 

In my dream, I saw a woman that was laying on a bed, and she looked like she was tired and almost like she was asleep. She was naked and in the sixth month of her pregnancy. Her children were around her and they were hungry. They needed milk but the mother didn’t have any milk flowing from her breast because it was blocked. She had milk, but there was a blockage. Then I saw a man which I did not like and he came to invite me to see this scene. I didn’t like the man because he had a seductive spirit. When I looked into the scene, I saw the woman again. Then the scene changed and a woman, who I consider as a prophetic voice, looked at me and said: “Keep looking forward!” She said it in a very strong voice and militant way.

I believe the Lord is calling me to begin to gather the mothers into the house of prayer to pray and to intercede on behalf of the hungry children that are around.  In my journey of working with women, the Lord has shown me many revelations about the significant role mothers play in the land.  I believe this is a critical time to be united corporately to strengthen each other in the Lord as well as in intercession.

Arise, cry out in the night, at the beginning of the watches. Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord. Lift your hands toward Him. For the life of your young children, who faint from hunger at the head of every street.” 

Lamentations 2:19

I would like to invite you, our family from around the world, to pray with us for the strengthening of mothers and children in this strategic and critical season. I believe we are on the verge of a breakthrough and birthing during the month of September, but we need each one of you to hold our hands in this season to keep pushing forward until the new birthing happens in the land.

We are so grateful for what God is doing in Nazareth and in the Nation of Israel!
