062 - For Zion's Sake
Letter from the Editor
Dear Comrades in Arms,
Before diving into today’s important briefing, I want to thank each of you who responded to Lou’s recent appeal with your prayers and generosity. Paul and I have been deeply touched by your care for us personally in the midst of our ongoing corporate assignments. We are convinced that the prayers of the saints are powerful and effective unto the restoration of physical bodies as well as the shifting of nations. Meanwhile, we received word this week that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is also grateful for this company’s prayers. He was encouraged to hear of The Briefing’s 7000+ intercessors who are praying to the Holy One of Israel for His divine purposes to be fulfilled in the upcoming elections. With twelve days left to this historic vote, I urge you to read and weigh the following dream and prayer directives. May God grant us all greater understanding of the times we are in and establish us as watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Amabile
FOR ZION’S SAKE
For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, And for Jerusalem’s sake I will not keep quiet…
It will no longer be said to you, "Forsaken," Nor to your land will it any longer be said, "Desolate"; But you will be called, "My delight is in her," And your land, "Married"; For the LORD delights in you, And to Him your land will be married. Isaiah 62:1,4
Over the years, we have learned that though every nation has many issues of the day, they are not all equal in God’s eyes. When it comes to the raising up of kings and the bringing down of others, we must know the priorities of God’s heart to rightly partner with Him in His divine plan. The scriptures explain, “There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens” (Ecc 3:1). Therefore, it is clear that God’s priorities are not generic, but rather they are strategically connected to the express purpose of specific times and seasons.
In our last briefing, The Times of Truman and Trump, we shared a significant dream that revealed how our current times are likened to the times of President Harry S. Truman in regards to Israel. We understand that this has much to do with the establishment of Israel in the actual land of her inheritance. The land, therefore, is a central factor in Israel’s upcoming election. This has led us to the following deductions and prayer objectives:
1) Benny Gantz, who is running against Netanyahu, has made a declaration that he will not apply sovereignty to Judea and Samaria until there is approval from the international community. Of course, history tells us that Israel would not have this approval. With that said, Prime Minister Netanyahu must win the March 2nd election and form a coalition within the government to uphold the progress being made with the U.S. Administration for taking the land, that is 30% of Judea and Samaria.
2) PM Netanyahu needs a strong voter turnout on March 2. With each passing election, the voters are showing up less and less. This is the third election. Prevailing prayer is needed.
3) After the election, PM Netanyahu will have to form a coalition of at least 61 seats made up of various party leaders. This is the most difficult part and he has failed the past two elections. His ideal coalition would be a conservative, right wing coalition that includes the following parties: Likud, Yamina, Shana, and United Torah.
4) Netanyahu needs renewed energy, peace and favor each day as we head into the third election on March 2nd and then continued success as he begins the process to form a coalition.
As our team has been discussing and praying into these matters, Chris Berglund had another insightful dream last night...
In Chris’ dream our team arrived at the Pentagon in D.C. to meet with military leaders from various branches of the military. They brought us to the Israeli Embassy. Above the door were the initials, D.O.D. which Chris knew stood for multiple terms: Department of Defense, Department of Displacement and Decreeing Over Demonic Strongholds. At the embassy we were being invited to teach and equip the military leaders in spiritual warfare. At one point they specifically asked us how to “speak to the mountains” to have them removed. It was clear to Chris that the mountains were spiritual governmental powers that needed to be displaced so God’s kingdom could be established in the natural governance of Israel’s territory. There was also a connection being made between the voice needed to decree and the actual displacement of these powers which would then take place.
This dream strongly confirms to us that we are still in the midst of this crucial assignment. It also emphasizes the spiritual dimension of this battle which is against powers and principalities that will ultimately impact the natural realm. So, with twelve days left before the elections (12 being the number of government), let us govern in the heavenly realms over the coming shift in Israel’s government. In doing so, let’s “speak to the mountains” and decree the removal of every hindrance that stands in the way of God’s jealous love for Israel and the land of their inheritance.
