Dear Friends:

Now is the time to pray and not to faint.

“Oh that you would keep me from evil.”

1 Chronicles 4:10

“The LORD shall preserve you from all evil: He shall preserve your soul. I will redeem you from the hand of the wicked and I will redeem you out of the hand of the terrible.” 

Proverbs 30:7-9, Psalm 121:7

“Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.”

Revelation 3:10

Israel:

Blood continues to be spilled, murders, drive by shootings, looting, burning cars and homes, 8 IDF solders wounded, up to 90 Palestinians wounded, severe confrontation on both sides… Where does it all end? We watched as two helicopter gunships made their very noise way across the sky above our home to rescue 8 trapped solders in the hot bed of Jenin in the Palestinian Authority.

The internal war seems never ending. People are quite worn out.

Israel has announced the completion of a hypersonic missile that moves at 5 – 13 times the speed of sound. It is a whole new level of technology in weapons systems.

The Temple Mount is in news this week. Amith ha Levy created a bill in the Israeli parliament to petition the north end of the Temple Mount for Israel’s use, and the southern end for the Muslims. Keep watching to see what happens. In 1980 we lived in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City of Jerusalem and a Scots Professor of Maths came for tea; he brought his maps with him. He had spent months measuring all aspects of the Temple Mount. He surmised that the Jewish Temple could actually constructed on the northern area of the Temple compound, near the Dome of the Spirits.  Using this location, would not disturb the mosque.  And so history is repeating itself and this is the current topic of hot discussion, in the midst of all other concerns. That was 43 years ago…let’s see how it all unfolds in the coming days.

USA:

Shaking is taking place as promised. Curiously President Biden has made a secret unwritten agreement with Iran through the auspices of Yemen.  Apparently they decided; Iran promises to keep its emissions its 60% and the US will lift many sanctions … O. K. Are we that gullible? How can this so called agreement, possibly hold water?

Prophetic declarations spoken by Robin Bullock on May 5, 2023, at Shiloh in West Bank, Israel, during the Elijah List Israel tour:

Robin declares: “Oh, Lord of the heavens, we lift our hands in this place today, and we declare over the land of Israel… In this place, we declare the prayer of Hannah. ‘And Hannah prayed, and said, “My heart rejoices in the LORD; mine horn is exalted in the LORD: my mouth is enlarged over mine enemies; because I rejoice in Thy salvation.”’  1Samuel 2:1

 “Listen close to the proclamation and a prophetic prayer over Israel, and please join your faith with me as we do this.”‘There is none holy as the LORD: for there is none beside Thee: neither is there any rock like our God. Talk no more so exceedingly proudly; let not arrogance come out of your mouth: for the LORD is a God of knowledge, and by Him actions are weighed.’ (1 Samuel 2:2-3)

“Let the enemies of Israel hear these things. Let all those that would rise up against this nation hear this proclamation!

“‘The bows of the mighty men are broken, and they that stumbled are girded with strength. They that were full have hired out themselves for bread; and they that are hungry ceased: so that the barren hath born seven; and she that hath many children is waxed feeble. The LORD kills, and makes alive: He brings down to the grave, and brings up. The LORD makes poor, and makes rich: He brings low, and lifts up. He raises up the poor out of the dust, and lifts up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD’s, and He hath set the world upon them.’ (1 Samuel 2:4-8)

“Hear this, O world that would dare stand against Israel and stand to annihilate the Jewish State, for this shall not be. For surely the Lord our God is in this place. Surely He is here, for we will not forget Him. For why was there not a Samson on Masada? Why was there not a David coming there from Ein Gedi? Why? Because religion had choked the life down to nothing. And though there was a cry and hunger for God, faith could not be found.”

Robin sings:

“For we stop the ‘Beast of the East.’
The Beast of the East will not rise in this moment.
For we declare: Beast from the East—
Stop where you are!
For you will not prevail here.

“For our God is God! The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. He is God, and beside Him there is no other God! He’s the one and only true living God. He’s not found on an idol of stone, glass, metal, or bronze. He is the God of the universe. He’s the God who created all there is! He is our life and the length of our days, and He is the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of glory, the Messiah, the One and Only! Give Him praise! Hallelujah! And He is the protector of Israel. He is a protector of the land of Israel. 

Every blessing from our home here in Jerusalem:

To you and yours wherever you may be.

Sincerely,

Meridel Rawlings.
