Out of Zion Ministries is under the spiritual covering of Kehilat HaCarmel (Carmel Assembly), Pastor  Mike Fryer  &  Motte Sircus 
The CARMEL ALERT  June 10th  2011A compilation of news reports from the past week for the information of those committed to praying
for the Restoration of Israel & the Jewish People
David's Comment:  An Unusual Glimpse into the Spiritual Realm & the War Against IsraelA very good friend of ours and a faithful friend of Israel has published an excellent novel based on her amazing insight into the spiritual realm and the Hell inspired war against Israel & the Jewish people.  Mimi has been a great blessing to Josie & I and we want to bless her in return by encouraging you to purchase and read her book.  

This weeks comment is a brief excerpt from the book “Mundis Veridis and the End of the World” by Mim Lennon.   It is the story of Mundis Veridis who has been sent back in time by Satan to get the names and the numbers of the demons who with such lack of insight have allowed the nation of Israel to be reborn ….these unfortunate demons will be severely punished …
“It was a large , round light building set in a remote mountainous area of Australia , difficult to see as planes seldom flew that route and if they did pilots simply attributed the building to a space tracking station.   They were not far wrong .    Surrounded by a deep gorge on one side, dense bush , towering eucalyptus , deep icy cold ponds and beautiful wild flowers in spring, the area really deserved better tenants than it had .   In fact it had been there for eons, century after century, peopled or rather un peopled by demonic beings that had fallen from grace so long ago that they could no longer remember a time when they were not the dreadful beings that they had become.   And yet to look at them. They were quite lovely, ethereal looking, tall, blonde , magnificent physiques , an utterly beautiful people …at least these are the ones you would have seen had you been unfortunate enough to stumble across them.

There were others who worked far underground , small greenish beings who did the processing work, helped by reptilian-like creatures whom were the dogsbody help around the place.  As you entered the building you were struck by an enormous florescent light work that boasted the the different words attributed to the word ‘light’ - inscribed in Latin , Ancient Greek, Hebrew, Phoenician, Ancient Egyptian and other such languages, and in the left hand corner , as you looked at it was written the word ‘ Lucifer’, Angel of Light.

Lucifer was the CEO Of the organisation . Seldom seen but nevertheless eternally present and busy, as he roamed form one end of the earth to the other , watching , acting and carrying out his Machiavellian purposes.  Sometimes he called in , but mostly he just used his iPhone to connect with Headquarters .An iPhone that was the latest in technology and yet had its conception many thousands of years ago.

The small greenish beings were busy today in the computer room , pulling up their latest piece of demonic file .  Mundis Veridis was in a foul mood . His greenish skin giving off a horribly unpleasant odour , a regular occurrence when his latest demonic strategy had been discovered by those detestable called humans who had an understanding of “He who cannot be mentioned and is best left alone” and His true purpose on earth……”

This is an excellent book to give to anyone who enjoyed C.S Lewis “Screwtape Letters” or the Frank Peretti  books  OR WHO  ...........

1.  does not understand the significance of Modern day Israel and is completely immersed in Replacement Theology.    AND /OR
2.  thinks the Lake of Fire is a tourist hot spot in Hawaii or New Zealand and not the REAL THING!!

Lets also pray for that breakthrough to the Muslims,  and please remember to pray for all of the soldiers in the IDF -they are defending and fighting for the Kingdom of God.
Shabbat Shalom .... David & Josie

THIS WEEKS NEWS REPORTS   
1. Calm Restored After Naksah Day viloence   Has Aretz News  June 5th    Calm returned to Israel's border with Syria on Sunday night, after a day of demonstrations reportedly left up to 20 Syrian protesters dead.   State run Syria TV reported 20 people killed and 325 wounded by Israel Defense Forces fire along the border in the Golan Heights, in an attempt to prevent border infiltration and break up Naksa Day rallies commemorating 44 years since the Six-Day War. Israel captured Syria's Golan Heights in that conflict, as well as the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.   Syrian and Palestinian protesters run away from teargas near the ceasefire line between Syria and Israel in the Golan Heights June 5, 2011.  Despite the calm, there were reports out of Syria that protesters intended to spend the night on the border with Israel.
    Protesters within Israel were also injured, after IDF forces fired tear gas at protesters in Majdal Shams, in response to stone throwing demonstrators.   The protests on the Syrian border began on Sunday morning, with a reported 500 Syrian Palestinian protesters arriving at the border. They hid from IDF fire in a ditch dug by the army after the Nakba Day protests on May 15, approximately 20 meters from the border fence.   Protesters cut through strands of barbed wire that Israel placed in an area between the fence, which is located inside Israeli territory, and the Syrian frontier designated by United Nations stone markers.   During the protest, there were reports that at least four anti-tank mines exploded near the Syrian town of Quneitra, injuring many protesters.   According to reports, protesters hurling Molotov cocktails led to a fire in the area, which resulted in triggering the mines' explosions.
   IDF spokesman, Brigadier-General Yoav Mordechai, said troops had opened fire but he could not confirm any casualties.   "It's a message to anyone who tries to violate Israel's sovereign borders," he said, describing the army's actions as a "measured, focused and proper response".   The IDF called the protests a "clear provocation intended to divert attention from what is happening in Syria."   Israel is concerned that the border protests by unarmed demonstrators are being used by Palestinians, inspired by popular revolts in the Arab world, to draw a violent response and gain more world sympathy for their cause.   Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at Sunday's cabinet meeting accused "radical elements" of seeking provocations.   Hours before the violence flared, Netanyahu said he had ordered Israeli forces to act with restraint, but with determination, to prevent any border breach.  "To my regret, today there are extremists around us trying to breach our borders, and threaten our towns and citizens. We will not allow this," Netanyahu told his cabinet.  "Like any country in the world, Israel has the right and obligation to guard and defend its borders," he said earlier this week.
Please pray for angels to be posted on Israel's borders2.  Protestors for Hire:   Syrians Paid to Cross the Border Ynet News  June 6th    The mass Arab march on Israel's borders scheduled for Sunday was largley a dud, but nearly two dozens Syrians were reportedly killed while trying to infiltrate the Golan Heights, reported Syrian media.   It was apparently more difficult than expected to convince the Arab masses to gather and assault Israel's borders. So, according to the Syrian opposition, the regime in Damascus paid poor farmers $1,000 to cross into Israeli territory and harass the Israeli army. Any who were killed in the stunt were promised $25,000 to their families.   The Reform Party of Syria wrote on its official website that Syrian farmers make less than $200 a month, so many were tempted by the offer. And, if Syrian government media is to be believed, at least 23 paid with their lives for accepting the bribe.
   Israeli army officials noted that very few of the Syrian demonstrators were actually injured or killed by Israeli gunfire, and most were the victims of minefields stretching along the border region. The minefields are clearly marked.   The Reform Party of Syria was furious with the regime of dictator Bashar Assad for sending the poor farmers to their deaths, and accused the government of trying to create a diversion to take international focus off of the bloody pro-democracy uprising taking place in Syria. Thousands of Syrians demanding democratic freedoms have been massacred by government forces.  
    The largest march on Israel's borders marking the anniversary of the start of the Six Day War in 1967 - which the Arabs refer to as "the Setback" - was to come from Lebanon. But it didn't materialize.  Early estimates were that upwards of 100,000 Lebanese would try to cross into northern Israel. But the Lebanese army prevented most from reaching the border region.   The Palestinians were only slightly more enthusiastic. Palestinians clashed with Israeli soldiers north of Jerusalem, carrying signs that read "A million martyrs are marching on Jerusalem." They seem to have miscounted, as in reality the numbers were far fewer.   Some 40 Palestinians were wounded when Israeli security forces used non-lethal crowd control methods to defend themselves against the rioters.   At least four Israeli Arab Knesset members took part in the violent anti-Israel demonstrations, once again prompting calls that they be stripped of their parliamentary immunity.      
Please pray that the secular media will report this information
3.  Oama's Vision Becomes Basis for Mid-East Peace   Israel Today News  June 5    Just as Israeli officials feared   US President Barack Obama's "vision" of pushing Israel back to it's 1967 borders has become the basis for international peace efforts in the Middle East.    Last week, France offered to host renewed peace talks based on the "Obama vision." Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas at the weekend accepted the French proposal, even though it would likely end his campaign to unilaterally declare a Palestinian state at the UN in September.  According to the Bethlehem-based Palestinian news agency Ma'an, Abbas and his advisers have realized that the UN statehood bid is a dead end, as the US will never allow the motion to pass in the Security Council.  If Obama's stated conditions are to become the starting point for new negotiations, Abbas has gained far more than he would have at the UN.
    However, Abbas will now have to contend with his new government partners in Hamas, who called his acceptance of the French proposal "hasty and misguided."   Hamas sees no point in negotiations with Israel based on the 1967 border, or otherwise, as the group remains dedicated to seeing a Palestinian state fully replace Israel.   Concerned about seeing Israel further isolated, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday said Israel, too, is positively examining the French proposal. Netanyahu did, however, raise reservations over Paris' plan to reach an agreement on borders before broaching the topic of "Palestinian refugees."   During his visit to Washington last month, Netanyahu was widely seen as schooling Obama after the latter pushed the idea of returning to the 1967 borders.  Netanyahu, like most Israelis, views the 1967 borders as indefensible, and is not prepared to uproot all Jewish life in Judea and Samaria (the so-called "West Bank") nor to sever the Jews' ancient claims to those lands.
Please pray that this the God of israel will deal with the nations who are involved in this nonsense

4. Iran dispatches submarines to spy on Israel  ICEJ News   June 7th   Iran's semi-official Fars news agency reported on Tuesday that Iranian navy submarines have been dispatched to the Red Sea for reconnaissance purposes, in a move that could only be directed at Israel. "Iranian military submarines entered the Red Sea waters with the goal of collecting information and identifying other countries' combat vessels," Fars said, adding that the submarines were part of the 14th Fleet which is currently deployed to fight piracy in the area. Iran's submarine fleet is made up mostly of obsolete Russian built Kilo-class boats which analysts rate as incapable of long range voyages, but the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps naval detachment is reported to have a small fleet of domestically produced Ghadir-class submarines which might be capable of the mission described.   Please pray that these submarines will need to return to their base for whatever reason
The David's Sling mid-range anti-missile system will soon undergo a full test and could become operational within the next few years, Pini Yungman of Rafael Advanced Defense Systems said at the 2011 Military and Aviation Conference on Tuesday. The David's Sling system "successfully deals with threats that no other system in the world is capable of neutralizing," Yungman explained 
5. David's SlintAnti-Missile Defense System Just a Few Years Away   Israel National News   June 6th   Please pray that this system will be ready ahead of schedule
6.  Israel Unveils First Commercial Solar Power Plant   Ha Aretz News  June 6     Arava Power unveiled the country's first commercial solar power plant this week, showing it off to government ministers and dignitaries, and announced plans to erect dozens of other solar array fields, whose total cost could reach $2 billion. The announcement was appropriately made on UN World Environment Day. The NIS 100 million ($30 million), 4.95 megawatt plant in the agricultural community of Kibbutz Keturah, currently the largest of its kind in Israel, is due to be hooked up to the national grid in the next few weeks. It is the first of about 50 photovoltaic power fields that Arava said it will build throughout the southern Negev desert by the end of 2014.  Approximately 50km north of Eilat, Kibbutz Ketura is situated in the southern part of the Arava region, which is among the sunniest areas of the world. It gets at least 350 days of direct sunlight each year, making it a perfect location for a solar panel field.  Please pray for complete success for this innovative projectIsraeli brands will be included as part of "world market" for Food Channel's online store thanks to lobbying by US Christian group. Thanks to evangelical Christians in the US, Israeli companies are being given the chance to expose themselves to the world through an online food network that boasts around 11 million visitors per year. The Food Channel recently selected Israel to be the first country to feature in the new “world market” section of its online store, which promises to find hand-selected items for purchase that aren’t easily available in the US.  And according to one of the partners in Food Channel International – which runs the network’s overseas operations - Israel’s inclusion was no mistake. “The food here is terrific, it’s not well known in the US, even with all the distribution efforts that have been made over the last few years, and I felt like Americans, no matter what their faith base is, would thoroughly enjoy this wonderful treasure of Israeli food that very few know about,” said Cary Summers, while on his 65th visit to Israel in 30 years.  7.

Quakes rock Christchurch


Iafrica.com News -
http://news.iafrica.com/worldnews/734074.html



A series of strong quakes, including a 6.0-magnitude tremor, rocked New Zealand's stricken Christchurch on Monday, causing one building to collapse and prompting evacuations.
Power company Orion said electricity had been cut to 54 000 homes. The US Geological Survey measured the latest quake at a depth of nine kilometres and some 14 kilometres from the country's second largest city.

It followed a string of shocks early on Monday, including a 5.2-magnitude jolt which caused building damage in the city, still recovering from a deadly 6.3 magnitude disaster in February.
"It's been a nasty shake. People will be shaken," Christchurch mayor Bob Parker, adding that emergency services would have sprung to action within seconds of the jolts, but it was too early to detail injuries.
"I just hope that the reports of injuries I'm getting are minor injuries," he told Sky News.

Building falls in Christchurch


Police confirmed that a structure had fallen over in central Christchurch, much of which is still blocked off after the 22 February earthquake levelled much of the city, but said nobody was trapped.
"We've checked the collapsed building and it's all clear," a police spokesperson told AFP. The size of the building was not known.
The 6.0 magnitude aftershock prompted police to evacuate parts of the damaged central city known as the red zone, while rock falls had closed several bridges and prompted the closure of one police station.
Police urged residents to check on friends and neighbours, and to stay at home and avoid travelling if possible, but residents gridlocked the roads as they attempted to find their way home and reach family.

Inquest suspended

The series of quakes came just hours after the opening of an inquest examining why an office block collapsed in February's earthquake, killing more than 100 people, including 65 foreign students.

When the first tremors hit around lunchtime, lawyers and relatives of those killed when the Canterbury Television (CTV) building toppled and then burst into flames on 22 February fled the building as windows rattled.
The inquest was briefly suspended before being hit by the later quakes.
Geoscience Australia seismologist David Jepson said people would have been shaken quite strongly after New Zealand's South Island had endured much seismic activity in recent months.
"It seems like they are going to keep happening. Since they had that really big earthquake it seems to me like it activated all these different faults. But it's just a guessing game what is going to happen next," he said

The CARMEL ALERT  June 3rd  2011A compilation of news reports from the past week for the information of those committed to praying
for the Restoration of Israel & the Jewish People
A Messianic Ministry Based on Mt Carmel
David's Comment:  Col Ha Kavod (Good On You) PM NetanyahuDeuteronomy 33:12    Of Benjamin he said The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by Him, and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between His shoulders.
It is a little more than a week since the landmark political statements by US President Obama and Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu. Mr. Obama got the ball rolling in his speech outlaying his new vision for peace in the Middle East.  Mr. Obama made a huge mistake, and I believe he shot himself in the foot by arrogantly demanding that Israel returning to the borders that existed prior to Israel's miraculous victory in the Six Day War of 1967.  The majority of Jewish Israelis, Jewish people around the world, and Christian Zionists immediately rejected the US Presidents demand as totally unacceptable as anyone with even just a little understanding of the Middle East, realises that Israel cannot defend herself if the country was forced to return to the 1967 borders, and the nation still chosen by God to be the terrestial seat of His government, would very quickly be overrun and very quickly destroyed by the enemies of the God of Israel and His Messiah (Psalm 2).

The next day PM Netanyahi was scheduled to meet with President Obama at the White House.  It seemed that the Israeli leader would be going into that meeting at a serious disadvantage, but very quickly the Israeli leader politely, but with uncompromising authority made it very clear to Mr Obama and to all those watching or listening on radio, that Israel withdrawing to the pre 67 borders was an option that is simply not on the table.  President Obama immediately realised he was dealing with someone who was not afraid to stand up to him.  A dark look of disdain for PM Netanyahu was very obvious in Obama's eyes the looks he was giving Bibi said it all !

PM Netanyahu was calm, cool, collected and sensitively assertive as he continued to speak with Mr Obama and in later speeches and interviews that followed the White House meeting.  As PM Netanyahu addressed the US congress he received 29 rounds of applause - 26 of them were standing ovations. Back home in Israel, the PM's popularity across the political spectrum received a major boost. News analyst Michael Cohen noted "the idea that Congress would openly side with a foreign leader against the president of the US seems too far-fetched to believe. 

PM Netanyahu is an astute politician who has an extremely good command of the English language and exudes confidence and strength in his body language.  He was a high level combat soldier during his army service and lives with the legacy of his brother Jonathan who led the successful raid on Entebbe airport to free the Israeli hostages, but lost his life in the process of saving most of the hostages.  The PM is not what you would call a religious man but his daughter is a religious Jewess and his teenage son recently won 1st prize in the Israeli national Bible knowledge contest. 

We are aware that multitudes of Christian Zionists pray for Mr Netanyahu, and as strong as he is, we need to continue to pray that God will continue to direct his path and turn his heart the way it needs to go.  As a major political leader on the world stage Mr. Netanyahu must be seen to be doing his best to make peace with the so called Palestinians, but wisely he conditions Israel meeting Arab demands on them being prepared to acknowledge Israel's right to exist as the worlds' only Jewish state.  Bibi knows they cannot do and thus makes the prospects for a lasting peace very slim indeed.  He also said any peace deal with the Palestinians must grant Israel a military presence along the Jordan River, exclude repatriation of Palestinian refugees to Israel and leave Jerusalem as Israel's united capital.

However, the Israeli leader also said Tuesday in his address to the US Congress, some Jewish settlements in the West Bank would fall outside Israel’s borders in a final peace deal.  Jewish settlers living outside the 1967 lines expressed concern after hearing PM Netanyahu say Israel "will be required to give up parts of the ancestral Jewish homeland," during the speech before Congress. The possibility of Jewish settlements becoming a part of a Palestinian state aroused their anger.

All in all PM Netanyhu is doing a great job of leading God's nation at this very strategic time of history and we believe he is God's chosen vessel for the task of defending Israel against the Arab world & the nations.  In Hebrew his name is Ben yamin - son of my right hand   Netan Yahu - given by God !!!
There is no-one on the political horizon who comes close to his leadership abilities, so please join us as we continue to stand with and pray him.
Good on you Bibi !!!    The Lord be with you    ..............
The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by standing in defense of her right to exist on the land given to the Jewish people by the God of Israel.  Lets pray that Israel will turn back to their God.  Do not be silent, but share this with your fellow Christians, share it with your pastors, and with anyone you have a chance to speak to. Lets also pray for that breakthrough to the Muslims,  and please remember to pray for all of the soldiers in the IDF -they are defending and fighting for the Kingdom of God.
Shabbat Shalom .... David & Josie

THIS WEEKS NEWS REPORTS   
1.  Canada to World:  "Lay off Israel!"    Israel Today News  May 29th
    
Canada further emerged as Israel's new best friend on the international stage at last week's G8 Summit in Deauville, France.   Playing off US President Barack Obama's recent foreign policy speeches, the G8 leaders were keen to use their closing statment to demand that Israel retreat to its 1967 borders.   Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper was having none of it.  According to reports from the summit, Harper blocked all efforts to include references to the 1967 borders in the closing statement. The statement that finally read did call for renewed Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations, but put no pressure on Israel to accept dangerous pre-conditions.  Harper also blocked huge financial aid packages to Egypt, which in its current transition phase has been cozying up to Iran, Hamas and other regional Islamists.   Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman at the weekend phoned his Canadian counterpart to express his deep gratitude for Harper's efforts and for Canada's support at a time when Israel is feeling increasingly isolated.Please pray that the Canadian PM & his nation will see the blessings of the Lord for their solitary stand with Israel2. Egypt Opens the Rafah Crossing    Jerusalem Post  May 28th    Egyptian envoy to the Palestinian territories Yasser Othman on Saturday said Egypt "would not let anyone interfere" with the opening of the Rafah crossing on the Sinai-Gaza border to regular pedestrian traffic. Egypt announced on Thursday that, as of Saturday, the border crossing will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., except for Fridays and official holidays. Palestinian men aged 18 to 40 will need visas to cross. Older men, boys and females of all ages will be able to travel without one. Some 300 people crossed from Gaza to Sinai in the first hour after the crossing opened on Saturday. Thursday’s announcement of the move, which was immediately hailed by both Fatah and Hamas, was received with concern in Israel. An officer from the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories warned it could lead to an increase in the flow of weapons and terrorists from Egypt into Gaza. Please pray that the border remains secure against terrorists and weapon smuggling3. PM Netanyahu Pledges to Keep Jerusalem United    Ha Aretz News May 29th   Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated his government's support for a united Jerusalem on Sunday, calling the unification of Jerusalem one of the "foundations of the nation of Israel."    Speaking at a special government meeting held at the David Citadel in Jerusalem, the prime minister said Israel had won congressional support during his most recent trip to Washington, where he presented the issue of Jerusalem's unification.   "The wide support for these principles is an inalienable asset for the state of Israel," Netanyahu said. "The world knows that the nation of Israel and our friends are loyal to Jerusalem and its legacy."   "The government is obligated to building Jerusalem, as [Jerusalem] is the heart of the nation," Netanyahu said.
   The PM spoke to the U.S. Congress last week, where he said that Israel is willing to make painful concessions for peace, but Jerusalem will not be divided.  "Jerusalem must never again be divided," Netanyahu said to round of applause by the congressmen. "Jerusalem must remain the united capital of Israel."   The day after the prime minister's speech in Washington, the speaker of the Knesset and several other government ministers attended a dedication ceremony for the new Jewish settlement of Ma'aleh Zeitim, in East Jerusalem's Ras al-Amud neighborhood.   At the ceremony, Knesset Speaker Reuven Rivlin condemned those that seek to "cut up" Jerusalem, as bringing "disaster" onto the city and its residents.    The comments come shortly after a weekend in which U.S. President Barack Obama called for negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians based on borders from 1967, which Netanyahu rejects as "indefensible".
     The office of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that the cabinet is set to approve the so called Merom Plan, a five year program based on a NIS 291.9 million aimed to economically fortify Jerusalem through developing the city's tourism and hi-tech sectors. Jerusalem's mayor, Nir Barkat is enthusiastic regarding the plan and believes it will "strengthen the city's economy and allow young people to stay in the city."
Please pray that the Lord will protect & bless His Holy city of Jerusalem4.  Hamas Moving HQ to Egypt    Israel News Report  May 31st     Hamas is moving its headquarters from Damascus to Egypt, and the terror group is strengthening itself in the Sinai, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Security Committee Monday.   He also noted that the Muslim Brotherhood, from which Hamas sprung, also has become a more powerful force in Egypt since the ouster of Hosni Mubarak. The Prime Minister stated his concern about the inability of the provisional military regime in Egypt to exercise sovereignty in the Sinai, which borders Israel and from where Bedouin and Hamas terrorists smuggle weapons from Iran, Sudan, Syria and elsewhere into Gaza.   Al-Qaeda also has brought 400 terrorists into the area, according to an Egyptian official quoted by an Arab news agency,     The Prime Minister confirmed previous reports that Hamas supreme leader Khaled Mashaal has pulled out of Damascus, where his presence and welcome by Syrian President Bashar Assad is an additional worry for him in the face of the continuing uprising.  
   The vacuum of power in the Sinai has been illustrated by “the two gas explosions that occurred there” this year, Prime Minister Netanyahu told the Knesset committee. “Global terrorist organisations are interfering there, and their presence is increasing because of the geographic connection between Sinai and Gaza."  The Sharon government agreed to pull out of Gaza following the 2005 expulsion of nearly 10,000 Jews in the area. Agreements with Egypt on security in the Sinai began falling apart after Hamas ousted Fatah from Gaza four years ago. Following the Operation Cast Lead campaign at the end of 2008 and the beginning of 2009, Israel relied on American and European guarantees to monitor the transfer of goods and merchandise from the Sinai to Gaza, but these also have eroded. The opening of the Rafiah crossing this past Saturday has further harmed security.   The de facto dominance of Bedouin tribes and allied terrorists in the Sinai has set the stage for further stockpiling of advanced arms by Hamas and for plotting terrorist attacks at tourist and holy sites in Egypt.   
Please pray that all the schemes of the enemy will be exposed
5. Israeli Navy is Prepared to Board New Flotilla Ships    ICEJ News   June 1st   The Israel Navy is prepared to intercept and take control of ships participating in a new attempt to break the blockade of Gaza Strip, a senior navy officer said on Tuesday, one year after the operation to stop the Mavi Marmara passenger ship that ended with nine terrorists dead.   “We will order the ships to stop, but if they don’t, we are prepared to intercept and board the ships,” the senior officer told reporters.  A new  flotilla of 15 ships, organized by the Turkish IHH organization – which is outlawed in Israel due to its ties with Hamas – as well as the Free Gaza Movement, plans to set sail for the Gaza Strip late this month.  The organizers are now working to raise money to buy the ships, and they may have to delay their launch date by several days or even weeks.   Please pray that this flotilla will be cancelled now that the Egypt Gaza border is open
6.  Jerusalem Day Parade Marred by Violence & Arrests   ICEJ News  June 2nd
   
The 44th annual Jerusalem Day parade through the center of the capital was attended by over 40,000 people on Wednesday afternoon, waving flags and commemorating the liberation of the eastern half of the city in the 1967 Six Day War.   The parade route was different this year, moving through the Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood, as well as in the area of the Damascus Gate and Rehov Hanevi'im where scuffles broke out between Jewish marchers and Arab residents, resulting in dozens of arrests, mostly of Jews.   "In previous years we have also had problems and violence between the Arabs and the Jews, but in our opinion the number of arrests [this year] was not small, it was quite large," Jerusalem police spokesman Shmuel Ben-Ruby said.  Arab residents of Sheikh Jarrah called the parade route a "provocation" but parade organizers said it was necessary to march through the predominantly Arab neighborhood because of tests to the cities new light rail system in the streets where it is usually held.
    In related news, the IDF is preparing a "firm but non-lethal response" to planned attempts by several Palestinian organizations to rush Israel's borders this coming Sunday to mark the anniversary of the Six Day War. After "Nakba Day" demonstrations in mid May during which several people were killed and wounded and over a hundred Palestinians infiltrated through the borders with Syria and Lebanon, the IDF has improved border security by establishing new lookout posts, barbed wire fences and increased manpower at key points. Troops have also been issued rubber bullets and water cannons to minimize casualties but the IDF has warned that Israel's "red lines" will be defended.
7.  Jerusalem Arabs Ask Israel to Maintain Control of Jerusalem   ICEJ News   May 30th    The Israeli Knesset's Interior Committee met on Monday to discuss future control of Jerusalem as pressure mounts for Israel to surrender the city's eastern half to the Palestinian Authority.    Among those slated to address the committee were Arab residents of eastern Jerusalem who want to continue living under Israeli sovereignty.   That these Arabs would risk their lives to come forward and request to remain part of Israel debunks the international misconception most recently enunciated by US President Barack Obama that the Palestinian Arabs cannot reach their full potential or live dignified lives while under "Israeli occupation."   It also provides further evidence for the conclusion of Israel Today's recent cover story revealing that many Arans do not want an independant state and already live in peace and prosperity with their Jewish neighbors.
   Monday's Knesset gathering was called by lawmakers who are growing increasingly concerned over how parts of eastern Jerusalem are slowly falling under the de facto control of the Palestinian regime.  "Signs of Israeli sovereignty are disappearing in parts of Jerusalem that are behind the partition fence and their place is being taken by hostile elements," wrote the lawmakers. "This, despite the lack of any decision by the Knesset or the government on the matter."   They warned that this "impotence leads to the de facto division of Jerusalem."
Please pray that the world will wake up to the truth and leave  Israel and Jerusalem alone

Massachusetts tornadoes kill at least 4

01st June 2011
CNN - News - http://edition.cnn.com/2011/US/06/01/massachusetts.tornado/index.html

CNN) -- At least two confirmed tornadoes descended upon towns in western Massachusetts on Wednesday, leaving at least four dead and smashing homes and buildings across a 40-mile stretch, state officials and witnesses reported.
One person was killed in Springfield, two in nearby Westfield and one in Brimfield, about 20 miles east, Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick told reporters Wednesday night.
The storms struck shortly after 4 p.m. in Springfield, about 90 miles west of Boston. Dylan McDonald told CNN he watched the tornado knock down trees and scatter debris across town as he was driving with a co-worker.

"As the light turned green, a tree fell and everything took off," McDonald said. "We saw a roof fly off an apartment building. The car was tilting, but didn't turn over."
As many as 19 communities reported tornado damage Wednesday evening, Patrick said. The governor declared a state of emergency as the storm system that spawned those twisters moved east, with watches posted all the way to the Atlantic coast until late Wednesday.
"It's been particularly devastating in downtown Springfield," Patrick said. And he said a local official told him, "You have to see Monson to believe it."
Monson resident Dolly Opper said state police were setting up roadblocks around the town, and a neighbor described the town's center as "war zone."
"I haven't been home," she said. "The steeple's off the church across the street. It's lying right in the front yard."

At J.T.'s Sports Pub, on Springfield's Main Street, owner Keith Makarowski said he and the 10 or so patrons intially went outside to watch the darkening skies -- then retreated as the storm blew into downtown.
"There was a ton of debris flying around, lots of roof shingles and random siding," Makarowski said. Several century-old buildings were damaged -- "roofs torn off, facades ravaged, trees uprooted" -- and a woman across the street was blown up against a building after being caught outside.
"Luckily, two people from inside the building were able to pull her in, and she seemed like she was OK," Makarowski said.

Massachusetts State Police Sgt. Michael Popovics said Springfield, Monson, Westfield and seven other towns -- Agawam, Charlton, Oxford, Palmer, Sturbridge, West Springfield and Wilbraham -- reported severe damage. Sandra Ahearn, a spokeswoman for the Western Massachusetts Electric Co., said 12,000 customers were without power in the utility's service area and that hard-hit areas might not have electricity until the end of the week.
Patrick said he has mobilized 1,000 National Guard troops to assist with cleanup and search-and-rescue operations. The Massachusetts State Police said it had activated dog teams to look for people in damaged buildings and described many streets in Springfield as "impassable" due to fallen power lines and trees.
The damage came amid a wave of heavy thunderstorms that moved through the Northeast on Wednesday afternoon. Tornado watches were also issued for northern Connecticut, Rhode Island, New Hampshire and Maine until 11 p.m. Wednesday.

Though not as tornado-prone as much of the Midwest or South, Massachusetts has averaged two to three twisters per year since 1950, according to figures from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. In 1953, a massive tornado that struck Worcester and nearby towns killed 90 people, according to NOAA; the last tornado to hit the state was in 2008.

Dream - Fall of the dollar, HAARP and the New World Order

Dream given by Yahweh
You will find the dream typed in WHITE and the interpretation in another colour below.  This is what Yahshua/Jesus revealed to me in a dream before I was aware of the fall of the dollar and the current crisis in America/around the world.
DREAM
19th June 2010 – 6:50am

I flew up to Rustenburg to my parents and my family and I were driving around in the car.  We drove around one particular block at least 3 or 4 times and as we were driving I saw flower arrangements.  The flowers were perfect flower arrangements.  Each time we drove around the block, another flower arrangement was added.
Then I saw a shop and my sister mentioned, whilst pointing to the shop, that the clothes were really cheap and nice.  She wanted to go shopping there.  I saw men’s winter pajamas’ through the window and remembered that I wanted to buy some for my husband.  Begging my Dad to stop there we got out and went inside to have a look. 
The pajamas were not what I was looking for as all the bottom pieces were shorts.  I saw something that I liked and wanted to try it on.  I tried it on but my stomach was showing so I didn’t take it.
Interpretation: People are naked before the King of kings, God Almighty and the scripture says ‘Men of earth, you don’t know how poor, wretched and naked you are.  You might have much in earthly riches but truly you are poor and have nothing.   Yahshua/Jesus Blood saves us and covers us and through Him we are clothed with righteousness.
I found a wallet in the fitting room and in the wallet was dollar bills and rands.
Interpretation:  Yahweh/God showed me that the dollar would become weaker and eventually fall.  The rand has always been weak against the dollar bill but eventually the rand would be its equal.  The fact that the dollar bills were found in a cheap clothing store is that the dollar value will become very bad and eventually worthless.  A new currency would have to take its place.
When I found the wallet I tried to find a Manager who I could give it to, someone that could be trusted.  I went outside and there was a pool where a lot of people were swimming.  All of a sudden it turned night.  I was no longer the person who found the wallet but it was another lady with blonde hair.  She ran back to the clothing store where the pool was, that place seemed like a holiday resort.
Interpretation: Unfortunately people are enjoying the pleasures of this world and have forsaken Yahweh/God of the Bible and of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  People of earth have forsaken Yahshua/Jesus’s sacrifice and the Word of Yahweh/God.  Revelations says that the world drinks from the whore of Babylon and they have gone mad.  No longer is Yahweh/God feared and His Son Yahshua/Jesus is mocked.  People are too comfortable where they’re at, enjoying the rich and good pleasures of this life.  The enemy of this world, satan, has blinded the eyes of the unbelieving and lead astray in their hearts.  Yahweh says in the Bible that they will say peace peace, but there is no peace and sudden destruction will come from the Almighty.  The fact that the day turned to night suddenly, so suddenly will destruction come in one hour Revelations 18.  As people drink of idolatry, whoring, sexual immorality, witchcraft and drugs, removing the Word of Yahweh from every area of life, deception has crept in and no longer can anyone discern the difference between what is right or wrong.
The blonde head lady, who had the wallet, ran back inside to the shop but there were a whole bunch of men who followed her inside with the intention of raping her.  She was filled with fear.
Interpretaion:  We as people have settled for second best, we have allowed the governance of evil men and the works of the devil to rape us of our freedom and eternal salvation in Yahshua/Jesus for the pleasures of this life.
I looked outside and there was a river with marsh.  There was a hand seen in the marsh and water, that hand used something which created an electrical frequency that zapped a plant in the water and marsh.  Chaos immediately erupted, the very same plant/tulip erupted into a huge mountain and it grew suddenly and speedily into an enormous mountain. 
Interpretation:  The electrical current is the machine now known as HAARP which government authorities have made that can create earthquakes, volcanoes to erupt and storms.  They are tampering with creation and the way things were made to naturally run which is dangerous.  Man manipulating creation for his own purposes.
The mountain is a symbol of a government, a nation that will rise up suddenly.  Daniel 7 – One World Government.
Animals were running from their natural habitat with fear.  Suddenly four huge moons appeared behind the original moon, shining so bright that people could not look at it.
Interpretation: The four moons represent that in four coming months all these things given in this dream would take place. 
Dream given on the 19th June 2010 (original moon) + 19 July, 19 August (one month), 19 September  (second month), October (third month) and November (fourth month).
After the original month and an extra four months of this dream being given, major earthquakes started taking place in the world and up to date we have experienced tremendous amounts of storms, earthquakes and tornadoes erupting.  On the 24th November 2010 Russia and China shook hands on agreeing to quit the dollar and trade in their own currencies – why?

There were lots of Chinese people that started appearing in the dream.

Interpretation: China has one of the largest armies in the world next to America.  Unfortunately the American Governent has intentionally gotten involved with the affairs of other countries dispersing their troops making their army weaker.  Weak enough not to defend itself against an invasion?  America is so much in debt with China, America couldn’t print enough money to pay it back.  Aslo consider the Arab uprizing which has taken place, great civil unrest is happening all over the world.

This dream, given by Yahweh/God Almighty, has been fulfilled and I am being obedient to share it with you.  It says in Revelations that the enemy has been sent down to earth and he is filled with wrath because he knows his time is short.  Revelations explains the wrath of the devil and the wrath of Yahweh which  will come upon the face of the earth and it is called the great tribulation.  Revelations says that even though these things will come upon the whole earth, many hearts will be hardened and some will not repent of their abominations before the Almighty and against His Word.  The Bride of the Groom Yahshua, she is making herself ready, the virgins according to Matthew 25, having enough oil – obeying the Words of her Groom.

I pray that we prepare ourselves for the King and that we are kept in the great tribulation that is coming upon the face of the earth.  There is NO pre-tribulation rapture!!!  Yahweh says in Psalm 91 that He will keep His people through it. 

Yahweh sent the plagues against Egypt to reveal to the Egyptians and Pharaoh that He is the only living God and for them to repent and turn to Him, but Pharaoh’s heart was hardened and Pharaoh did not repent.

My prayer is that you come to know the goodness of Yahweh/God Almighty and the wonderful redemptive plan through Yahshua Messiah/Jesus.  I pray that if you know Him you will seek Him more and have an ever increasing intimate relationship with the Father.  It is not about religion, it is about relationship.  As a parent speaks to his or her children, so the Father wants to speak to you as his son or daughter.  Love Him as He loves you and obey the commandments He placed in His Word for us to have life and peace.  King David said that Yahweh’s Word was a light unto his feet and a lamp unto his path meditating on His Laws and Precepts Day and Night.

Those who are far off I pray you will draw near and realize how much He loves you.  Yahweh says in His Word that He relents in sending calamity but rather that the nations should repent, turn back to Him and receive the salvation given freely through Messiah Yahshua/Jesus.

Be blessed on your journey and may we be kept from the hour of temptation coming upon the face of the earth.
Amein!

The Latest News from Israel - The CARMEL ALERT May 27th 2011

Out of Zion Ministries is under the spiritual covering of Kehilat HaCarmel (Carmel Assembly),
Pastor  Mike Fryer  &  Motte Sircus 
The CARMEL ALERT  May 27th  2011A compilation of news reports from the past week for the information of those committed to praying
for the Restoration of Israel & the Jewish People
  whose voice then shook the earth; but now He has promised, saying, "yet once more I shake not only the earth, but also heaven."
This is just one verse of a selection that speaks of a shaking to come. Some people see the shaking as the coming seven year tribulation. While in total contrast others, (including  myself) , see it as a present shaking to awaken God’s people across the earth. And that would include both believing Israel and the Church. But even wider it will bring unbelieving Israel and many weak gentile church people and the unsaved to a renewal or new level of faith and experience in Yeshua Messiah.

In recent years there have been significant, Earthquakes, Floods, Hurricanes, Droughts and other natural disasters. It is as Yeshua said in Mathew 24.22  the summer is near and we should acknowledge the signs.  There is an increasing anxiety that the riots in the Middle East are the harbinger of the Muslim Brother hood taking over all the nations, then to make worldwide Jihad  destroying America and Israel. However the end times are not in the hand of Islam, antichrist or the politicians. They are in the hand of The Father who spoke through the prophets in the Old Testament and in the Hands of Yeshua who gave the details clearly in the New Testament.  While it is challenging to make sense of events at present or to know which way they will turn for democracy or for Sharia Law. We do not need to rush to either conclusion. That  any new democracy will give worldwide peace and Islam will be de-radicalised. Or that  an new Islamic empire will soon be destroying the world.   (although that may in some degree, come finally with Armageddon).

Some TV presentations are raising fear by reporting on Iran and their plans to unmask the Madhi. Islam’s teachings or the interpretations thereof; are however not our guide to the future. And we should not be allowing some “church prophecy teachers” to over influence our anxieties. Jesus warned of not heeding false messiahs that may be in the “desert place” (Mathew 24.26) ie. where Islam has its’ sway.

There is an alternative. The Lord God is in control of the natural disasters, the economic woes and the riots. These things He will have been aware of beforehand and are His means to get our attention.  When all else seems to be crumbling and we turn to Him, He will restore all things and bring a worldwide Holy Spirit Renewal or Revival. Then  Mathew 24.14 can be fulfilled before “the end comes”. And Acts 3.21 the restoration of all things will have been accomplished.

If democracy does not satisfy the Middle Eastern rioters, or fails to be fully achieved, Could it be that the Lord is preparing them to turn somewhere else, that being to the Gospel and Himself ? That is where the real future answers lie.  In the mean time it may get scary;  Luke 21:26  “men's hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken”.

Israel has been restored to the Land of Promise not to be destroyed, but to be restored to spiritual faith and relationship with their God. As borne out by another shaking verse.
Joe 3:16  The LORD also will roar from Zion, And utter His voice from Jerusalem; The heavens  and earth will shake; But the LORD will be a shelter for His people, And the strength of the children of Israel.
The Lord bless you as you bless Israel by standing in defense of her right to exist on the land given to the Jewish people by the God of Israel.  Lets pray that Israel will turn back to their God.  Do not be silent, but share this with your fellow Christians, share it with your pastors, and with anyone you have a chance to speak to. Lets also pray for that breakthrough to the Muslims,  and please remember to pray for all of the soldiers in the IDF -they are defending and fighting for the Kingdom of God.
Shabbat Shalom .... David & Josie
THIS WEEKS NEWS REPORTS   
1. Israeli Cabinet Supports PM Netanyahu's Rejection of Obama's Speech    Ha Arz News  May 22nd      After two days packed with meetings and peaking with his confrontation with President Barack Obama, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has emerged stronger within Likud and became a uniting force for the Israeli right.  Netanyahu's adamant rejection of Obama's "1967 borders" speech restored calm to the right-wing coalition he heads; even the leftmost pole of his government, Defense Minister Ehud Barak, sent him a message of support Saturday.  "I don't think that the president's speech was such a bad thing," Barak said in an interview on Saturday with Israel's Channel 2 television news. "I think it's good that the prime minister brought attention to the fact that we expect the recognition of settlement blocs and that we want the refugees to be absorbed within the Palestinian state," Barak said.   "I don't think that the president said it was necessary to return to the 1967 lines, but rather that we need to start the discussion based on the 1967 borders," Barak said, stressing that the gaps between the United States and Israel on the peace process were smaller than they seemed. "[The Netanyahu-Obama meeting at the White House Friday] was a lot less dramatic than it appeared," Barak said. "I think the Americans know well the nuances of our positions."  Barak went on to explain that he is staying in the coalition as a guarantor for negotiations with the Palestinians.
   The rightmost poles of Netanyahu's coalition government, Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, Deputy Prime Minister Eli Yishai and Vice Prime Minister Moshe Ya'alon, saw to it that the political front remained calm.   "Israel cannot permit itself to return to the 1967 borders, which are indefensible, or to a process in which it is giving more territory to the Palestinians," Ya'alon said.   Deputy Foreign Minister Daniel Ayalon sounded a reassuring note Saturday. Like Barak, said he did not interpret the interchange between Obama and Netanyahu as a confrontation. "Obama's speech was positive for Israel, since he remained committed to Israel as a Jewish state and even demanded that the Palestinians explain the reconciliation agreement with Hamas," Ayalon said.  A senior source in Likud, speaking Saturday about the prime minister's right-wing coalition partners, said: "Netanyahu passed them on the right. No one can say he took a hard left. That's why no one on the right attacked him."
Please pray for continued national support for PM Netanyahu to encourage him to stand strong against the US pressure
2. Netanyahu's Speech  Red Lines    -  Ted Belman
1. Jerusalem will remain the undivided capital of Israel.
2. Israel won’t retreat to ’67 lines.
3. Israel must maintain a longterm presence on the Jordan.
4. Palestine must be demilitarized.
5. No right of return to Israel
6. Israel will keep all its settlement blocks around Jerusalem and Tel Aviv
7. Israel will evacuate some settlements
8. Fatah must blow off Hamas.
9. Abbas must accept Israel as a Jewish state

As for how much land we would give them for a state, he said he would be generous. But he made it clear that we are giving them part of our homeland rather than returning to them what is theirs. I had the feeling that he was intent on hanging on to much more land than his predecessors have tried to do. Especially when he said we will give them “part of the land”.    The speech was extremely well received by the audience.  
Please pray that the Israeli people will stand firmly behind the PM
3. Colombia:  We Will Not Recognise Palestinian State       After suffering a series of diplomatic defeats to the Palestinians in Latin America, Israel won a rare victory on Wednesday when Colombia announced that it would not unilaterally recognize a Palestinian state.   Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos Calderón told a delegation of the World Jewish Congress in a meeting in the Colombian capital of Bogota that his governmentwould not recognize Palestinian statehood as "a matter of principle."   "We value your friendship and courage for Israel and the Jewish people," World Jewish Congress President Ronald Lauder said. "We also appreciate that you have withstood pressure from fellow Latin American leaders to prematurely recognize a Palestinian state."   In the past half year a string of Latin American countries, mostly with left-leaning governments, including Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay and Guyana have recognized Palestinian statehood. Chile, which has a right-leaning government, has also recognized Palestinian statehood with caveats.     Please pray that God will bless Colombia for this decision
4.  US Congress Sides With Netanyahu Over Obama's Speech    Israel Today News   May 24th    Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech before the US Congress on Tuesday was seen by most Israelis as a resounding success, and as a rejection of President Barack Obama's policy speeches over the previous few days.   Speaking before a joint gathering of the House of Representatives and Senate, Netanyahu reiterated that Israel will not return to its 1967 borders, as Obama had insisted it must do for the sake of peace. The Israeli leader also adamantly restated Israel's position that Jerusalem must not be divided.   Netanyahu's strong statements won no fewer than 29 rounds of applause (26 of them standing ovations) from the lawmakers, despite the fact that he was seen to be defying the Americans' own president.
     Israel found support in resisting US President Barack Obama's dangerous peace policies not only in the US Congress, but also in America's northern neighbor, Canada.  On Monday, Canadian officials told Ottawa's Globe and Mail newspaper that Obama's adoption of the Arab position that peace must be based on the 1967 borders was out of place.  "Both the Israelis and the Palestinians have to decide on their bottom lines, which the Israelis have said will not include a return to the 1967 border," one official said.  
Please pray that more nations will turn to stand in defense of Israel
5.  Egypt Opens Rafah Crossing   ICEJ News  May 26th    Israeli Vice Premier Silvan Shalom spoke out on Thursday against the opening of the Rafah crossing from Gaza into Egypt, calling for international supervision of the crossing.  "This is a dangerous development that could lead to weapons and al-Qaida smuggling into Gaza," Shalom said.   Homeland Security Minister Matan Vilna'i also warned that the opening of the Rafah will be ve Corssingry problematic for Israel.  However, he added in an interview with Israel Radio, that Egypt did not break any agreements with Israel. Hamas welcomed Egypt's decision to permanently open the crossing from Gaza into Egypt.   "This decision reflects the spirit of revolution in Egypt and the depth of brotherhood between the Palestinian people and the Egyptian people, which has returned itself to its original role in the Palestinian matter," a statement released by Hamas read.   Egypt announced on Wednesday that it plans to open its border with the Gaza Strip "on a daily basis" to "ease entry restrictions for Palestinians."   Under former president Mubarak, Egypt only sporadically opened up the Rafah border crossing for food and medicine, or to let through people, mainly those seeking medical treatment or traveling to study.  "Egyptian authorities have decided to extend the working hours at the Rafah border crossing starting from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on a daily basis, except for Fridays and official holidays, starting on Saturday, May 28," Egyptian news agency MENA said.  It said the decision came as "part of Egyptian efforts to end divisions among Palestinians and to finalize their reconciliation."  Please pray that angels will patrol the Rafah crossing if no-one else does
6. Poll Shows Israelis Supportive of Netanyahu   ICEJ News   May 27th    A poll published by the Left-wing Haaretz newspaper on Thursday shows that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is returning to Israel after his visit to Washington in excellent political shape, enjoying high approval ratings from Israelis. The poll also showed that most Israelis felt "pride" while watching Netanyahu address the US Congress on Tuesday, as well as showing that most Israelis have a favorable opinion of US President Barak Obama and do not believe that the tension between the two leaders will cause long term damage to the Israel-US relationshipPlease pray that the Lord will continue to direct the son of is right hand  -  Benjamin Netanyahu
Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz signed an agreement on Monday approving the construction and operation of a new desalination facility near Ashdod, which upon completion will make Israel's domestic water consumption 65% reliant on desalinated sources. The $400 million project will be one of the world's largest desalination plants and is to be ready in 2013.
