Psalm 121:4

"He who watches Israel, neither Slumbers nor Sleeps!"

Shalom!


Hinei lo yanum...we attended a Shabbat Service on our travels that concluded with a phenomenal season of prayer...those whose souls were crying for Intercessory Prayer had the opportunity to approach the Bema and address those heartfelt needs in joint prayer with the Congregational Leaders...all during this Season of Prayer a beautiful...haunting song was sung...Hinei lo yanum, ve lo yishan, Shomeir Yisra'el...He who watches Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps...slumbers nor sleeps...neither slumbers nor sleeps...He who watches Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps, slumbers nor sleeps...

I have been unable to remove this song from my mind...and find myself singing it over and over continually...it has brought comfort to my heart and soul that are weary and in desperate need of rest and refreshment...He who watches Israel...on Shavuot/Sivan 6 5770...May 19...last Wednesday on the Gregorian calendar...the Heavens told the story of G-d as He watches over His Land...the photos sent to me of the cloud formations over the Temple Mount looked exactly like the Cloud by Day...Pillar of Fire by Night...a report from friends in Israel who wrote:"for several days before, there had been a hot heavy oppression over Jerusalem...a dust cloud from deserts hundreds of miles away hanging high overhead...May 19th Shavuot/Pentecost dawned sparkling and blue...a cold wind springing up overnight had driven away the dust...then throughout the morning we watched a display in the Heavens such as we had never seen before...great streams of clouds rising in the northwest, arching across the city, and then, incredibly, raining down in showers of convergence onto the Mount of Olives...sometimes in broad streams, at others like arrows falling from the sky...He who watches Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps...

Take your heart's needs and longings to Him...let Him refresh you in the depths of your soul as you come before Him with your wounds and hurts, fears and praises laid before this One to whom every knee will bow...He who watches Israel...
