Vision of the Harp of David on the Walls of Jerusalem: 28/05/2023

By Rania Sayegh

On the Day of Pentecost, Sunday the 28th of May, after the global broadcast from the 7 steps, our HOPE worship team led worship in the Jerusalem Prayer Tower. During the watch, the Lord gave me a vision of David harps positioned on the top of the Jerusalem walls. I saw about 12 harps laying on the top of the ancient walls of the city, 3 harps on each side of the city. Then all of the sudden I saw strong winds beginning to blow from the four corners of the city, blowing into the harps strings. When the winds blew strongly, a beautiful peaceful melody was being released from the harps. When the sound of the melody was echoing in the atmosphere, I saw a portal being opened in the Spirit, and from this portal a scroll came down rolling out towards the city. When I looked more intently to see what was written on the scroll, I could see it was Isaiah 54!

1“Sing, O barren,
You who have not borne!
Break forth into singing, and cry aloud,
You who have not labored with child!
For more are the children of the desolate
Than the children of the married woman,” says the Lord.
2“Enlarge the place of your tent,
And let them stretch out the curtains of your dwellings;
Do not spare;
Lengthen your cords,
And strengthen your stakes.
3For you shall expand to the right and to the left,
And your descendants will inherit the nations,
And make the desolate cities inhabited.
4“Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed;
Neither be disgraced, for you will not be put to shame;
For you will forget the shame of your youth,
And will not remember the reproach of your widowhood anymore.
5For your Maker is your husband,
The Lord of hosts is His name;
And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
He is called the God of the whole earth.
6For the Lord has called you
Like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit,
Like a youthful wife when you were refused,”
Says your God.
7“For a mere moment I have forsaken you,
But with great mercies I will gather you.
8With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment;
But with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
Says the Lord, your Redeemer.
9“For this is like the waters of Noah to Me;
For as I have sworn
That the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth,
So have I sworn
That I would not be angry with you, nor rebuke you.
10For the mountains shall depart
And the hills be removed,
But My kindness shall not depart from you,
Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,”
Says the Lord, who has mercy on you.
11“O you afflicted one,
Tossed with tempest, and not comforted,
Behold, I will lay your stones with colorful gems,
And lay your foundations with sapphires.
12I will make your pinnacles of rubies,
Your gates of crystal,
And all your walls of precious stones.
13All your children shall be taught by the Lord,
And great shall be the peace of your children.
14In righteousness you shall be established;
You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
And from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me.
Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake.
16“Behold, I have created the blackith
Who blows the coals in the fire,
Who brings forth an instrument for his work;
And I have created the spoiler to destroy.
17No weapon formed against you shall prosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
And their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.

Isaiah 54

Rania speaking at the “Spirit of Elijah Prophetic Summit” on Mount Carmel 20/04/2023

On the 20th of April, Rania was invited to speak at the “Spirit of Elijah Prophetic Summit” on Mount Carmel. She spoke about the spirit of Elijah and preparing the way of the Lord through the restoration that God is bringing between generations: fathers and mothers with their children. Furthermore, she presented a prophetic gift to honor the mothers and fathers of Carmel Congregation, a coal from Wales representing the fire of God that is burning continuously on the altar. God was, indeed, moving in a powerful way during this meeting. As one of the young people from HOPE stood up and honored the fathers and mothers present, their hearts were moved to bless back the younger generation to become all that God has called them to be!

Vision of the Lion of Judah and the Eastern Gate of Jerusalem: 3/4/2023

By Rania Sayegh

During our weekly intercessors meeting, we were praying for the situation in the land and especially for the government and the judicial reformation crisis. Then I was taken in a vision to the walls of Jerusalem. I saw the Lion of the tribe of Judah standing on the wall of the Eastern, Golden Gate of Jerusalem.He began to roar over Jerusalem from the Eastern Gate, and when He did, I saw the gate open in the spirit, and a river of thick golden oil began to flow from the Eastern Gate, but not only this, I saw the oil begin to burn with fire the moment it was unleashed.

This river of thick golden oil mingled with fire began to flow from the Eastern Golden Gate into the streets and the valleys of the city. It began to wash and burn away anything standing in the way of the flow, and as it burned the thorns, it was also removing the stones that were blocking the flow in the pathways of the city.

“And it shall come to pass that he who is left in Zion and remains in Jerusalem will be called holy—everyone who is recorded among the living in Jerusalem. When the Lord has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and purged the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment and by the spirit of burning.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭4‬:‭3‬-‭4‬ ‭NKJV‬‬

“Go through, Go through the gates! Prepare the way for the people; Build up, Build up the highway! Take out the stones, Lift up a banner for the peoples! Indeed the Lord has proclaimed To the end of the world: “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Surely your salvation is coming; Behold, His reward is with Him, And His work before Him.’ ” And they shall call them The Holy People, The Redeemed of the Lord; And you shall be called Sought Out, A City Not Forsaken.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭62‬:‭10‬-‭12‬ ‭NKJV‬

For His glory,

Filming in Magdala 2/3 2023

Rania was invited by TBN staff in the land to join Sheila Walsh (host of the TV program, “Better Together”), who was visiting the land and wanted to record a program at the archaeological site in Magdala. This was thrilling for Rania, as one of her favourite places to visit is Magdala, the hometown of Mary Magdalene. The recording was highlighting the significance of the place historically but also today, what it means for each woman worldwide who is feeling broken, sick and in bondage to find healing and hope through Jesus Christ.  The recording was a powerful experience for Rania and Sheila especially towards the end, when they went down to the Encounter Chapel, where there is a beautiful, powerful mural depicting the story of the bleeding woman, who touched the hem of the garment of Jesus and got healed!

We would love to share the episode with you, when it’s ready to be aired on TBN!

ICEJ Envision Conference in Jerusalem 04/02/2023

On the 4th of February this year, Rania was invited to the annual Envision leaders conference held by ICEJ in Jerusalem. She was being asked to share alongside other local pastors on a leaders panel about the reconciliation and relationship between Arabs and Jews. The time of sharing was very fruitful, as Rania shared her heart about the keys for genuine reconciliation and the heart change needed in this process, as we humble ourselves to seek the heart of God and His redemptive plan for both Arabs and Jews.

It was a blessed time to connect with different leaders around the world, share hearts and fellowship together.

Deborah’s Clan Gathering 17/2/2023

On the 17th of February, HOPE hosted a Deborah’s Clan gathering of 48 Messianic Jewish and Arab spiritual mothers in the land. Karen Davis opened the conference by leading us into the presence of the Lord through worship in Hebrew and English. Rania then spoke about arising as Deborahs and Esthers in the land for such a time as this. She shared a word she had received from the Lord, “When the mothers of the land arise, there is safety in the land.” There is currently an escalation of war and tumult in the Israeli government, but as spiritual mothers we are the keys to the restoration within the land of Israel, and it is time for us to stand up as Esthers and take our place.

Rania received the date of 17/2 for bringing together Jewish and Arab sisters for prayer in Nazareth, and upon arrival each woman received a white stone either with a golden crown or the word “Malka“ (“queen” in Hebrew) painted on it. Esther 2:17 speaks of the crowning of Esther. Likewise, God is crowing us today with a royal crown to declare His authority, saying, “I want to release a new experience of my love upon each Esther present in this place and anoint her as a seal.” Revelation 2:17 speaks about a white stone with a new name written on it. It is God’s seal, as He is working strategically through the women taking their stand. On the new mural in Nazareth painted by an Israeli artist in cooperation with an Iranian-American filmmaker, it states, “It is time for the Esthers to arise!” This is a prophetic declaration for Esthers all over the world to stand against the spirit of Haman. When we are standing together as Arab and Messianic Jewish sisters, it will change everything in Israel.

Following Rania, Margaret Abu Ghazaleh shared a short message from John 13:3-5, emphasizing that our identity is not from here. Jesus knew while He was walking here on earth that His identity was not from this place, and neither is ours. We are daughters of the King!

After a short break, Rajaa Sadran opened the next session leading us in beautiful Arabic worship, followed by a couple of Messianic Jewish sisters sharing what the Lord had put on their hearts. Sarah Liberman first shared her personal testimony of how the Lord touched her heart in the middle of her struggle, as she as continued worshiping Him despite a hearing injury. One day she received a vision of the globe, with God’s eyes looking with fire on the Middle East, as she heard Him saying, “These are the people who are on my heart.” From that day on, God put it on Sarah’s heart to translate one of her songs into Arabic. However, before she got to do anything about it, she suddenly received a recording by Egyptians who had translated one of her songs from English into Arabic, sent to her by Canadian friends. Sarah Liberman at once felt like her namesake Sarah from the Bible, who had sent away her Egyptian maid Hagar and Ishmael. Realizing that the rejection of Hagar and Ishmael had caused the rise of Islam saying that, “Allah has no son,” Sarah felt she had to learn Arabic and ask for forgiveness in Arabic.

The final speaker was Orna Grinman. She continued speaking on the theme of Esther, who in the beginning of the story was introduced as “an object,” who did everything her uncle, Mordechai told her, whereas later she was the one telling him what to do. Haman had everything, but none of this had any value for him, as long as this one thing – Mordechai sitting at the gate – was disturbing him (Esther 5:13). Orna showed us illustratively the beautiful Bible scrolls her mother had left her, and opening the Scroll of Esther she declared that it was time for us to start writing our scroll! “God needs each of our hearts in His story. My scroll is really not my scroll, but each of us are writing it together,” Orna said. In the past, she had seen the Arab women as being unnecessary and “sitting at the gate” in her story. However, now she understood how important it was to the Lord that we were all gathered together. After Orna’s message, the Holy Spirit led us into a time of prayer and repentance toward one other, followed by Sarah Liberman singing “The Blessing” over us in English and Hebrew. Finally, before returning home, we all shared a time of beautiful fellowship over a delicious Arabic meal in the HOPE Café.

Purim Decree 2023

Inspired by the Global Watch Community and a few women from Israel. Written by Sandra Teplinsky.

In the unity of one accord, we, a remnant of the people of YHVH who worship Him in Spirit and Truth through Messiah Yeshua, enter heaven’s gates with thanksgiving and its courts with praise.

We thank You, Sovereign and Omnipotent Lord God, for Your mercy by which we have access to the judicial realms of heaven. We exalt You and all Your ways, which are perfect and good, holy and loving, just and true. We bless and magnify the Name of YHVH.

We acknowledge our standing before You, Lord God, is solely by the Blood of Yeshua (1 John 1:7). In His Name and in the authority He has stewarded to us, we come boldly before Your throne of grace (Matthew 16:19, Luke 10:19, Ephesians 2:6, Hebrews 4:16). As we do, we also humble ourselves according to 2 Chronicles 7:13-14. We sincerely confess and repent of our wicked ways and those of our people. According to Your Word, we trust You to hear from heaven, forgive us and heal our land (1 John 2:1).

On this 15 th  day of Adar, we present to You the living and immutable truth of Your Word, particularly as set forth in the scroll of Esther. We ask You to grant us access to any time gates or heavenly portals aligning with events occurring in ancient Persia under the reign of King Ahasuerus; specifically: (1) the unsummoned approach of Hadassah, also known as Queen Esther, to said king; (2) the extension of his favor due to the extension of Your favor; and (3) his instruction to Esther to write various decrees designed to spare the lives of her people (Esther 5:1-3, 8:8).
Your Highest Majesty, “if it please the King, if You regard us with favor, if You determine it is the right thing to do, and if You are pleased with us, let a decree be written overruling the dispatches of [Your and our enemies] devised to destroy [Your people and the full inheritance of Your Son Yeshua] in all the King’s provinces throughout the earth. For how can [You and we] bear to see disaster fall on [our] people?” (Esther 8:5-6)

Specifically, we petition for what You, our King have already declared and decreed, that such declarations and decrees, now be executed at this time by Your Spirit, together with the unified agreement of Your followers gathered today and others whom You would appoint, at according to Your thoughts and ways:

Isaiah 61:1-3 NKJV “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me [King Yeshua], Because the Lord has anointed Me [Him]to preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me [Him] to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn, to console those who mourn in Zion, to give them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they may be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.”

Isaiah 25:5-9 NIV “YHVH, You silence the uproar of foreigners; as heat is reduced by the shadow of a cloud, so the song of the ruthless is stilled. On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine—the best of meats and the finest of wines. On this mountain He will destroy the shroud [thick covering] that enfolds [is cast over] all peoples, the sheet [veil] that covers [is spread over] all nations; He will swallow up death forever. The Sovereign Lord will wipe away the tears from all faces; He will remove His people’s disgrace from all the earth. The Lord has spoken. In that day they will say, “Surely this is our God; we trusted in Him, and He saved us. This is the Lord, we trusted in Him; let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation.”

2 Corinthians 3:14-17 (Amplified)  [But the Israelites’] minds were grown hard and calloused [they had become dull and had lost the power of understanding], for until this present day, when the Old Testament is being read, the same veil [as Moses placed over his face] still lies on their hearts, not being lifted to reveal that in Messiah it is made void and done away with. Yes, to this day whenever Moses is read, a veil lies upon their minds and hearts. But whenever a person turns to the Lord, the veil is stripped off and taken away.”

We put before You, Your Honor, the reality that larger numbers of Jewish people, especially in Israel, are turning to You in recent days and years. For each person turning to You, let now the veil be stripped off and removed by the power of the Blood and Name of Yeshua. For each person turning to You, let now God arise to scatter His enemies from that person and their household. For each person turning to You, let now a spirit of grace and supplication be poured out on them and their household. Let now a mourning arise for revelation of Messiah and a turning toward Yeshua.

CONCLUSION FOR ALL:
In conclusion, we petition You because we earnestly seek that which is expressed in Your Word concerning (1) the establishment of Your throne and kingdom rule in Jerusalem, Israel and all the earth according to Your timing thereof; and (2) the full inheritance of Messiah Yeshua, including a bride from Israel and the nations, which requires a future, substantially greater surrender to Him from Israel and the nations, also known as a coming, global harvest of souls. We thank and praise You for Your anticipated righteous determination and execution of this petition. In the Name of Messiah Yeshua, let Your kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven in all these matters.  May the will of YHVH be done on earth, in this place, as it is in heaven. Blessed be Your glorious name, which You have placed here forever.

Respectfully submitted with gratitude,

These assembled children of God

Vision of the Lion with the Sword on the Iranian Flag: 31/01/2023

By Rania Sayegh

During our Tuesday youth meeting, the Lord took me to the older flag of Iran, which has a lion with a sword, as it is painted in the mural in Nazareth. I saw the lion coming alive, and all of the sudden he became a huge lion, and the scene changed to where he was standing over the land of Iran with a sword in his hand. He was the lion of the tribe of Judah. He began to release His terrifying and powerful roar of judgment, and I saw him wielding His sword over Iran. I saw him ripping the thick black covering that is over Iran, and then declaring from the Scriptures:

“And in this mountain
The Lord of hosts will make for all people
A feast of choice pieces,
A feast of wines on the lees,
Of fat things full of marrow,
Of well-refined wines on the lees.
And He will destroy on this mountain
The surface of the covering cast over all people,
And the veil that is spread over all nations.
He will swallow up death forever,
And the Lord God will wipe away tears from all faces;
The rebuke of His people
He will take away from all the earth;
For the Lord has spoken.
And it will be said in that day:
“Behold, this is our God;
We have waited for Him, and He will save us.
This is the Lord;
We have waited for Him;
We will be glad and rejoice in His salvation.””
Isaiah 25:6-9 (NKJV)

For His glory,

Rania

Mural in Nazareth in Support of Iranian Women

This last month, the city of Nazareth was blessed by the creation of a special mural in support of the freedom fight of the Iranian women. The mural was painted by the Jewish Israeli artist, Benzi Brofman, in collaboration with the Iranian-American filmmaker and entrepreneur, Hooman Khalili, who came to Israel especially from San Francisco to carry out the project, and on January 31, the opening ceremony for the new mural took place in Nazareth. Please check the following links to news articles in the Jerusalem Post and Ynet News, Israeli media channels, talking about the mural in Nazareth.

The photos below are from the opening ceremony. The prophetic word, “It’s time for the Esthers of the world to rise up,” a prophetic word that Rania shared with Hooman Khalili, and when Hooman heard that declaration, he felt from the Lord it should be included in the mural in Nazareth. In the last photo, Rania is with the Israeli artist, Benzi Brofman.

Vision of the Tree Coming Alive from Nazareth: 30/01/2023

By Rania Sayegh

During the watch we had with our women intercessors group, I saw in an open vision the tree painted in the mural in Nazareth, where a branch is shooting forth from the root of the tree and blooming, coming alive. In the vision, the roots of the tree were going deeper and deeper in the city of Nazareth, spreading forth to the left and the right, and as the roots went deep into the earth, they were moving powerfully. All the roots of the tree were hidden, but they were spreading all over becoming bigger and bigger, until they broke forth above the ground, and that unseen tree with its roots could now be seen by all. Underneath the roots there was a reservoir of water, and when the roots went deeper, fountains of water began to explode from the ground and wash the land going forth from Nazareth to Israel and the nations!

There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse,
And a Branch shall grow out of his roots.
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 of the fear of the Lord.
(Isaiah 11:1-2)

In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
(Revelation 22:2)

For His glory,

Rania
