PWI Newsletter 10/05

Dear partners in prayer.

We have seen some interesting things going on in the world these last few months, and the world seems to get smaller and smaller, therefore things are getting closer to home.

Some interesting facts that came to us about the hurricane Katrina in USA and the connection with the Jewish people that have been moved out of Gaza in Israel.
8,500 Jews evacuated from Gaza – 850,000 Americans were forced to flee their homes in Louisiana and their homes destroyed. Katrina was hitting just as the bulldozers were completing the destruction of Gush Katif. The Talmud teaches that Hashem administers the world according to the "ATFAT" principle, in other words, "a turn for a turn" There could well be a link between the forced expulsion of 8500 people from their blood, sweat, and tear-soaked homes in Gaza Israeli and between the nearly 850,000 people who also have been forced to flee from their homes in Louisiana. Sharon, at the prodding of the American government, has destroyed hallowed centres of prayer, Torah learning, and settlement in the Land of Israel. Remember that the gifts and calling of God are irrevocable, which of course relates to land God gave them, as well as other aspirations. Joel 3:1-3 shows that God will draw all the nations who have divided up the land into a time of judgement in the future, maybe, just maybe this was a warning from Gen 12:3. Now choose to bless my people and my land or be cursed in your land.

Katrina, written in Hebrew, has a numerical equivalent of 374. Two relevant passages in Torah share the exact numerical equivalent of 374 also: or "They have done you evil" (see Gen. 50:17), and "The sea upon land" (see Exodus 14:15). The former passage may be an indication as to the spiritual cause of Katrina, while the latter passage describes the physical manifestation.

Is all of this just coincidence? We know that the Lord is in authority over the earth, nature etc and that no matter what the evil one seeks to do, God will turn around for the good of His people. Eph 5:20 declares “thank the Lord for all things” and in 1 Thess 5:18 it says thank Him IN all things, so we thank you Lord for what you are doing in and with this end time activity.

Do not touch my people Israel, and do not divide up the land I gave to them as their inheritance, is very clearly God’s heart, and openly declared through His word. Do the nations heed this, NO they do not. Does the church heed this, no not all of them. Thank God that some do or His hand may have been heavier than it was.
While in prayer in quietly sitting at Jesus feet, While in prayer and quietly sitting at Jesus’ feet, I felt the Lord speak to me regarding what was to come – that if the governing authorities of nations, especially USA which promotes itself as a Christian nation, pushes for His people to give up more land in Israel, ie the West Bank and Samaria, He will touch their “West bank, their West Coast” and they will see His word being fulfilled before their very eyes. We must not touch His West Bank. I believe that not until Gaza is restored to His people shall New Orleans be restored to the American people.

We as the church in this nation have had many prophetic words warning us of not going the way of the world and agreeing with giving up land for the sake of peace in Israel. The Lord has to my knowledge spoken several times these last few years in regard to this and we have responded through different organisations and individuals who have spoken into our government and leadership of the nation. All it seems to no avail, it seems as if most just want to put their heads in the sand and hope that the problem will go away or will come to nothing. On the contrary it will not go away and it will have to be faced full on. We can expect some major pressures to hit our nation, and the church will feel the effects of it. Even now the enemy waits at the door, waiting to pounce on the unsuspecting, waiting for the release to do his evil work. He can do nothing without the Lord allowing him to do so, but it is coming.
We the intercessors have to be people that stand in the gap for others who maybe do not see the reality of the word being worked out in these end times. Many folks do not have the love of the truth so as to discern these end time activities. We can only listen to the Lord the Holy Spirit as He opens up the word and the mysteries that are hidden there, and be prepared to be a people who respond as He instructs us.
Never before like today is the call to come and meet with Him in His throne room, it is here that the given authority sinks deeper into ones soul and we gain the depth of understanding of His will in exercising that authority, in and at the right place and the correct timing of His perfect way. Before Him, standing close to Him and knowing Him intimately releases a spiritual boldness born of the Spirit to do the commands of God heard directly through the time with Him.

We are also offering a new book produced by the Love Never Fails organisation, ‘Israel His People, His Land, His Story’. Ten different authors reflecting on biblical and historical themes with contributions on terrorism and peacemaking. We would strongly suggest that you order at least two copies, one for yourself and another for a friend who does not understand the full meaning of God’s purpose for Israel in these end times. This is worthwhile reading material, a book that will stand the test of time. We at PWI have purchased 100 of these books for you the intercessors, so be quick in your ordering.

Enclosed also are some teaching notes on the Kingdom of God and Anglo Israelism which is creeping into the church in these last days. We have no desire to put down any person brother or sister in the Lord, but we will do all that we can to resist teaching that dilutes or creates a compromise with the work of the Word and the Spirit of God.

Be watchful, David.
