We are coming to the end of our Ten Days of Prayer!
May it be that He Who sits on High would hear our collective cry!
Yom Teruah begins ten days between it and the most holy day of the year, Yom Kippur. These days are traditionally called the "Ten Days of Awe." They mark a time wherein brothers are especially supposed to make peace with brothers- because the "judgment" associated with Yom Kippur is coming.
This season teaches us that to the greatest extent possible we want to make peace with all men before we stand before our King, Messiah Yeshua. We want to hear the Prince of Peace say to us, "Well done, good and faithful servant."
To help us prepare our hearts during this time, we are posting (ahead of time) some suggested prayer points for each day.
Like our forefathers in Egypt, if we truly want deliverance we need to "cry out," we need to make our supplications known in Heaven and Earth. Then Abba will hear our groaning and remember that we are His covenant people (Exo 2:23-24; 1 Pet 2:9-10). Without faith it is impossible to please Him, so we must pray with faith, believing that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him (Heb 11:6). At this time we need to cry out in prayer for the changes that we so desperately need to come to the body of Messiah.
We list these ten days of suggested prayers in my feast book (plus the verse references from which the ideas were taken). There is one section for each of the Ten Days of Awe (see chapter 29, "Ten Days of Prayer"). These prayers are unique in that they especially focus on the restoration and reunion of the whole house of Israel.
A similar, less extensive list is likewise available in the now out of print book, Ephraim and Judah: Israel Revealed; although out of print this handy book is available in a PDF format (see "Prayer Points" pages 34-37). You may download a free copy at Key of David Marketplace.
Finally, we want to suggest that you listen to a new song. We we are getting wonderful feedback about it. Written by me and recorded by my friend, Will Spires, the song is titled "I AM YHVH." People are telling us that they think it is truly inspiring and that they plan to sing it at their services. You might want to listen to it before you pray. It is about the Father's heart cry for His chosen people: Judah and Ephraim. You can hear it at
Zachariah's Patrol website or Key of David Marketplace, and it is available at as a free download at Key of David Marketplace.
Prayer Points for Day 8:
Pray for both houses to see the Father's plan to have a pure,
overcoming army, and to give themselves to becoming that army (Isa
11:11-14; 27:6-9; Zec 8:3,7,13; 9:13; 10:7-10; Hos 11:10; Obad 1:18;
Jer 50:4,5,20; 3:14-18; Ezek 37:22-26). Pray the sons of Israel come,
they and the sons of Judah, and go along weeping in a true search for
their God; pray they turn their faces toward Zion and truly be joined in
covenant with Him (Jer 50:4-5; Hos 5:14-15). Pray that Ephraim would
again be like a mighty man, with their heart glad as if from wine, and
that their children see it and be glad and their heart rejoice in the
LORD (Zec 10:7). Pray that all Israel will seek to pay the full price
for their pardon; pray that all their pagan practices and idols will be
made like chalk stones and thus unable to stand (Isa 27:9). Pray that
Israel's mighty ones will be equipped with the breath of the Spirit of
the Most High (Eze 37:10).

I Am YHVH
We encourage you to listen to a new song, written by Batya and
recorded by our friend, Will Spires. The song is titled "I AM YHVH"
and it is truly inspiring. You might want to listen to it before you
pray. The song is about the Father's heart cry for His chosen people:
Judah and Ephraim. You can hear it as you enter the Zachariah's Patrol website or Key of David Marketplace, and it can be downloaded for free at Key of David Marketplace. Several people have asked for the song on a cd so they can play it in their cars. So we have made available at Key of David Marketplace. a CD that has seven renditions of the song for $4 (to cover shipping and handling costs).
