Journey to the Valley

On 5 February 2026, I (Rania), along with two core intercessors from the House of Prayer, traveled to the Valley of Elah. This valley holds deep biblical significance. It is the site where David confronted Goliath. David, still a young shepherd, defeated the giant with five smooth stones and a sling, striking him on the forehead and taking his life (1 Samuel 17:45–51).

Prophetically, the Valley of Elah represents a breakthrough against the spirit of Amalek, from whom Goliath descended.

After returning on 28 November 2025 from a confidential assignment in Berlin, where God led us to confront the modern-day spirit of Amalek, He spoke clearly: He wanted us to partner with Him in another strike, a decisive blow against this ancient enemy that has battled us in the land for the past two and a half years.

A few days before our trip, as I prayed, urgency filled my spirit. I sensed we needed to move quickly and seize the moment to carry out the prophetic act the Lord placed on my heart. At that time, tensions in Israel rose due to negotiations between the United States and Iran over nuclear enrichment. The threat of another war with Iran loomed if Iran refused to abandon its nuclear ambitions.

Arrival and Worship

That morning, we set out for the Valley of Elah. The day felt perfectly appointed. Green hills surrounded us, and fresh flowers had begun to bloom, clear signs that spring approached. When we arrived, I sensed we needed to climb one of the hills and position ourselves in a high place for prayer and the prophetic act.

As we worshiped and prayed, the sky began to shift. The clouds formed shapes that looked like angelic wings, as if the Lord Himself had painted them for us. We knew the hosts of heaven joined us. We sensed we stood in a place of Mahanaim—“two camps” (Genesis 32:2).

The Prophetic Act

After a time of worship, we felt it was time to move forward with the prophetic act. We carried a tent peg, intending to drive it into the ground. The tent peg represents the final defeat of Sisera in the days of Deborah, at the hands of Jael. We understood that in this Hebrew year 5786, the year of the “Vav,” the tent peg, the Lord intends to end a cycle of warfare and release a breakthrough against our enemies. Specifically, He will confront the spirit of violence, murder, and bloodshed that the spirit of Amalek spreads across the land and the Middle East.

As I scanned the area, a tree caught my eye. Its shape resembled David’s harp. We knew immediately the Lord had chosen this spot. It carried the spirit of David, the king and worshiper who won battles through devotion, loyalty, and pursuit of God’s heart.

We began the act by driving the tent peg into the ground near the tree while declaring Scripture aloud: Habakkuk 3:13, Isaiah 66:6–12, Amos 9:11, and Joel 3:16.

The Circle of Stones

We gathered fifteen stones from the surrounding area and placed them in a circle around the tree, five stones for each of us, mirroring David’s five stones. We drove the tent peg into the ground at the center of the circle. This act represents a rising generation of Davids who will rebuild the tabernacle of prophetic worship and wholehearted devotion to Jesus the King.

The Stake and a Snake

As we searched for a stone to help drive the tent peg, a sudden shock came: a snake emerged from beneath the stone. It quickly slithered away and hid under a larger rock near the tree. That rock, representing Jesus, revealed a striking shape. Upon closer inspection, it resembled the head of an eagle.

This reminded me of a vision I received on 2 February 2026, in which an eagle carried the land of Israel like a tent peg and drove it into the head of an octopus, the same octopus I had seen in a vision nearly four years earlier. The connection felt unmistakable.

Communion & Anointing

After this, we took communion together. We poured grape juice onto the tent peg, declaring the victory and deliverance of the blood of Jesus. Then we poured oil on the tent peg, declaring the anointing of the Holy Spirit that breaks every yoke of evil.

After the snake appeared, I asked the Lord for confirmation, specifically for a sign of an eagle in the sky. Suddenly, the clouds formed a clear image of a massive eagle’s head, looking down with fierce intensity, its beak open and ready to devour its prey, ready to strike the snake.

In that moment, we knew the Lord confirmed His word. He was going before us to fulfill His will and bring victory, a decisive strike against the head of the octopus, representing the spirit of Amalek, embodied today in modern Hamans, particularly in Iran, modern-day Persia.

Blowing the Shofar & Departure

To seal this moment, we stood together and blew the shofar five times. As we did, we released the roar of the Lion of the tribe of Judah over the Valley of Elah.

We left the valley filled with joy and assurance, knowing the Lord watches over His word to perform it (Jeremiah 1:11–12).
