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.

Women’s Retreat 26th – 29th February in Magdala

Rania was invited by a her friends, Marianna Goll and Orna Grinman to be part of this women’s retreat for international women from different nations, including Jewish and Arab women. The retreat was a time of seeking God’s face as a company of women, hearing from Him and waiting upon Him, and a time of fellowship and building relationships.

Youth Training Day in Shefamer 22nd February

47 young people came together from different cities and villages across the Galilee and Jerusalem. Two different worship teams led powerful times of worship. Rania gave an introduction on the importance of clear sight for this year and how God is preparing the younger generation to operate in the prophetic anointing. She also shared about the importance of God’s dealings in our lives to purify us, and how God is highlighting eyesight in 2020. She spoke about the strategic timing of the training day 22-2-2020 which God had shown her to be a day of breakthrough and preparation for the younger generation to move into a higher level of authority in which they are destined to carry the keys of David (Isaiah 22:22).

Rick and Patricia Ridings led the second session, sharing about the importance of the seer gift and how to operate in it, giving different examples of visions and dreams resulting in powerful declarations over nations and shifting these nations. Their teaching was uplifting and faith building.

Priscilla shared about her personal journey, how God had begun to open her eyes as a young woman and developed this gift in her life. She shared how each one of us can hear from God in very simple ways. She spoke from experience about the struggles that she had to go through as God used these things to mold and sharpen the seer gifting in her life. God had used the power of the blood of Jesus and communion in her past and will use it in this season to overthrow the enemy’s plans against God’s people and the body of Christ in the nations. We ended this day with worship then gathered around the communion table – where the glory of God was very thick in the room (there had been a powerful presence of the Lord at this same point during the women’s day too).

We are so grateful to the Lord for these two powerful days of deep revelation and teachings, fellowship, food, prayer, worship and communion.

Arab Women’s Training Day in Shefamer 21st February

Rick and Patricia Ridings and Priscilla Zananiri came to be with us for these two training days. 88 women came to Shefamer Church (80 Arab women from many different regions in Israel and 8 internationals). Rania opened the first session with teaching on the theme of Revelation 3:18 about how to sharpen our spiritual eyesight. She shared why it is important in this season to have clear sight and how the Lord deals with His people and prophets to purify them as gold. She used the examples of Job and the testing that he went through, as well as Daniel who came through different hard tests in his life but was then trusted by God for the most strategic end-time prophecies.

In the second session, Priscilla shared about her personal journey in which God had delivered her family when the spirit of death came and tried to take out some of her family members. She shared how God had prepared her beforehand through communion and understanding more deeply the power of the blood which was ultimately the reason her family was spared last Passover. It was a powerful testimony of resurrection power.

Rick and Patricia led the third session and shared about eyesight and throne room/ governmental intercession which is praying from the third heaven. God had led them into this through a series of dreams and visions. God used the seer anointing and the declarations that resulted from it to shift nations.

We ended the day with a special time around the Lord’s table. Priscilla led us, Rania and Rick helped facilitate.

During the women’s meeting, three different worship teams led in powerful Arabic worship.

Arab Deborah’s Arising Women’s Breakfast Praise Report | January 8th

Thank you for praying for the Arab Deborah’s Arising Women’s Breakfast with Yvette el Bayadi in January. Yvette is a dynamic Egyptian speaker whose television ministry reaches all over the Arab world. The women’s breakfast was a powerful time of worship and sharing.

Yvette shared about the story of Deborah and how God is working in Syria and Iraq. The stories were so moving and even difficult to hear; this brought us a stronger burden to continue to pray and watch over the Isaiah 19 highway.

Year Recap 2019

The year 2019 has been a very fruitful year with great progress in the Arab and Jewish Deborahs Arising Movements, prophetic prayer journeys to the mountains of Israel and other strategic locations as well as ministry trips to Norway, Sweden, Hong Kong, Canada and the USA. HOPE Nazareth hosted many visitors from the nations, including local and international ministries. 

Please take a moment to give thanks with me for God’s grace as you read through our recap of the year 2019 below!

We are excited about all that God has in store for us in the year 2020; we are expecting further expansion of the sphere of influence that the Lord is entrusting to HOPE locally and internationally. Thank you for your continuous prayer and financial support that allow us to carry the vision of working with the Arab and Jewish women of the land, as well as with the younger generation. 

We are continuing to look for a new building for HOPE. We are believing for bigger space to accommodate more people in the new center where we want to have space enough for a training hall, prayer room, coffee shop and healing rooms.  Would you prayerfully consider partnering with us financially for this strategic year 2020 to see His dream coming to pass? Please see the section below with information on how to partner with HOPE. 

We are so grateful to God for the work that He is carrying out in Nazareth and the nations! 

For His glory,

Rania

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!

Welcoming the King of Glory Conference in Nazareth – December 2019

From December 15-19, there was a strategic gathering of Arab and Messianic Jewish leaders , as well as hundreds from the nations. We gathered at the Nazareth Golden Crown Hotel overlooking the Jezreel Valley. This gathering was called Welcoming the King of Glory. The theme of this year’s gathering was One New Man. I had the privilege to be part of the leadership group praying and walking in unity with our Jewish family.

During the gathering, there were several historic moments that I believe had great spiritual implications and impact. On the second day of the gathering, the leadership arranged to go up to Mount Precipice for a prophetic act of repentance for rejecting the Lord Jesus in His hometown and welcoming Him back to His home, as well as to the nation of Israel. I believe this was a historic moment as I have prayed for this for at least 17 years. After doing many prophetic acts of prayer and repentance as an Arab native in the Land, I prayed and waited for the time when our Jewish family would come to do this very act and welcome the Lord back into His hometown. I believe this opened a gateway in the Spirit over the city of Nazareth for a great harvest to be released as well as for the salvation of all Israel acknowledging their Messiah – Jesus from Nazareth!

I was also asked to do a workshop about the Arab people during the gathering where I spoke about the prophetic destiny of the Arab people.

On the third day of the gathering, the Lord led the leadership to do an act of repentance for holding women back and released the women into their full destiny. This was a historic act to happen in the city of Nazareth, with representatives from Jewish, Arab and International men standing united as they surrounded the women in the hall and blessed them as in the book of Ruth.

Then all the people who were at the gate and the elders said, “We are witnesses. May the LORD make the woman, who is coming into your house, like Rachel and Leah, who together built up the house of Israel. May you act worthily in Ephrathah and be renowned in Bethlehem.”

Ruth 4:11

On the fourth day and last night of the gathering, one of the Arab leaders felt that something wasn’t complete in the repentance that happened on the mountain. He felt that the Arab leaders had another act of repentance they should confess. This was the rejection of our Jewish family and the everlasting covenant the Lord made with the people of Israel and the grafting of the wild branches (Gentiles) into the olive tree. This was a profound act of repentance and acknowledgment of the prophetic destiny of the Jewish people from their Arabic family. During the repentance, the Jewish leaders responded with deep appreciation and love. They prayed over us and acknowledged the place of the Arab family in God’s plan for Israel and the Nations. This was an incredibly powerful moment and declaration from the city of Nazareth, which is the considered to be the biggest city populated by Arabs in the land!

We have witnessed history being made, and a birthing out of the ancient womb of Nazareth. One New Man rising and His family reuniting in humility and genuine love!

Norway, Canada & USA Trip Report

My first stop on my month long trip was to Norway, where I stayed in Bergen. Bergen is a gorgeous city with a diverse landscape.  During my visit, I met with different leaders and visited some friends as well. I was also invited to speak at Credo Church. This church is a dynamic, charismatic church that moves in the prophetic and gifts of the spirit. The meeting I was invited to speak at, was a prayer meeting in the middle of the week. The church ended up having a special meeting where I was given the opportunity to be the main speaker. The Lord led me to teach on the power of travailing prayer. The Lord also gave me a prophetic word to release for Bergen during this meeting. There were around 200-220 people who attended this meeting. The Holy Spirit moved in a powerful way as people came forward to be prayed for. Many were healed that night, and touched by the power of the Holy Spirit. We ended up finishing the meeting at 11:30PM! I (Rania) saw at least 14 creative miracles where legs grew and people’s backs were aligned.

To Jesus all the glory, our great healer!

After leaving Bergen, my second stop was Toronto, Canada. It was a blessing to see my family in Brampton where my oldest sister lives. I had two meetings scheduled during my stay in Canada. One meeting was speaking to a group of young Chinese people at the All Nations House of Prayer. I shared with them my heart about my life journey with God. During this time the Lord lead me also to pray for the sick, we saw several creative healing miracles happen. I also spoke at a Sunday service that had around 150 – 180 people in attendance. I spoke about the prophetic season we are in and the prophetic revelations the Lord is speaking and revealing for the new year. The Sunday meeting was also a powerful time where many came to receive prayer for healing, deliverance, and to hear a word from the Lord. The service began at 10:00AM and ended by 14:00PM. The Lord moved and the Spirit of prophecy was flowing and many received words from the Lord. 

Trip to the USA
After leaving Toronto, Canada, my first stop in the USA was Houston, Texas. I was part of a conference called Global Prayer Alliance (GPA). The vision of this gathering of leaders from around the world was to contend in prayer for a global awakening in the body of Christ around the world. I had the privilege to be invited as one of the Arab representatives with our Jewish family. I was invited to speak twice at this conference, as well as sharing in one of the evening open meetings on what the Lord is doing at HOPE among the women and the young people and about the miracles we are experiencing in this season!

After sharing about Nazareth, the media team that was airing for GOD TV asked me if I can record four segments for them on what God is doing in Nazareth and the healing miracles we have been experiencing. I was blessed to have this opportunity to have these programs recorded to bless the millions who watch GOD TV. We will share some of these programs when they are ready to be aired.

During the conference, I spoke about the revelations the Lord gave me on the midnight cry and what God is asking His bride to do in this season for us to keep the midnight watch and to stay awake. The second message was focused on the shakings that are happening in the Middle East and about the Isaiah 19 highway prophecy fulfillment, as well as the prophetic destiny of the Arab people and their role in the global awakening.

At the last night of the conference, I was asked by the leadership to pray and release an impartation over the people for the miraculous power of Jesus and the supernatural to manifest in their ministries, families, and nations. I prayed for at least 80 people that night. I saw during my time there at least 18 creative miracles happen!

 

After leaving Houston, Texas I headed to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania to be with our family and friends, Ray and Renaid Almgren. They scheduled several meetings for me to speak at different churches in the region. I was also invited to minister to the staff of CornerStone TV channel. I was also asked to record two segments with CornerStone TV on the Real Life program. It was a great blessing and such a rich time at the station. We are grateful to the family of CornerStone TV who have been such a blessing to me and HOPE through their financial giving as well as prayer support. 

During my time of ministry in Pittsburgh I spoke in 6 churches. I saw the Lord move again with His creative power by seeing many touched by the Holy Spirit, as well as receiving miraculous healing breakthroughs!

I saw at least 25 creative miracles during my time in Pittsburgh. I’m grateful the Lord for His healing hand stretched out to restore and refresh His family there.

 

After leaving Pittsburgh, I headed back to Texas. This time I visited Dallas to be part of the Global Prophetic Council (GPC) and the Global Prophetic Summit (GPS) conference with Cindy Jacobs’ Generals of Intercession. I had a great reception in Texas, as I was welcomed by a very good friend of mine Briskilla Zananiri. I was invited for dinner with her friends, and we had a really wonderful time together. We ended up praying for her friend’s healing as she has been suffering from back and hip issues. She had a shortened leg that caused her to limp as she walked. The Lord touched her as we prayed and her leg grew  out! There has been great improvement in her movement as she has been able to go up and down the stairs. This was something she wasn’t been able to do before. It’s such a joy to see the Lord move like this and bless this precious woman through a healing touch from the Lord! 

Being part of the GPC, was an enriching experience as I met some amazing prophetic men and women of God. It was also great to partake of the Word of the Lord spoken and experience His presence and the flow of the prophetic. I was asked to pray as the representatives from Israel were asked to come up on stage. We prayed for what’s going on in the land, as missiles where being shot towards the land from the Gaza Strip. We all stood in intercession and prayer for protection and for salvation of Israel and the Palestinian people.

The main prophetic word the Lord kept on highlighting to the prophets was restoration of the family, unity, and a time of restitution to all that has been stolen from us as individuals. We prayed for the church as a corporate body and for a release of great miracles, signs and wonders!
