Donna: After an unusally long silence from Arni and Yonit Klein, yesterday I received this ministry letter from Arni explaining the lack of communication. So much of it registered with me, as I also have come to understand the Spirit of God is calling us into a deeper connection with Him than we have ever experienced before. I don't want to miss that, and I will bet you don't either. Arni has many things for us to consider in this part one of the great shift he has sensed that is taking place in the spirit.
Arni: Some of you have no doubt noticed that it’s been an unusually long time since our last letter. (Nov 2024) Some have wondered if they were inadvertently dropped from our list. We are here and are basically fine. The last four months have been quite a journey. The fullness of what we want to share is still on the way. But rather than wait any longer, we want to send out what’s been compiled thus far. In a way, what follows might be seen as complete, but in essence it is not. It is only the prelude. So please consider this as part one:
From the
inception of this letter, going back over thirty years, we have sought to
bring prophetic perspective to the events going on around us. Given the
volume and depth of changes and shifts over the past months, I (arni) have
experienced an inability to write that was surprising and somewhat disturbing.
It even felt somewhat irresponsible towards our many friends and supporters. The fact is that for months I have sat for
hours day after day trying to lay hold of a thread of thought worth of
communicating. Initially, it seemed
that the difficulty was in deciding what to choose from the vast amount of
significant and rapidly changing events and dynamics. Also, the complexity and
diversity of potential perspectives was stifling. All that being true, we have
come to see this period of being shut in as even a prophetic picture of the
spiritual season we are in.
A great shift is taking
place in the spirit. We are
being called…compelled…to live on another level -- that of eternity.
For a while, from the covid time to the Gaza war, we followed post after post,
disclosure, hope, promise and possibility that came our way. It was quite
consuming, overwhelming, fruitless, and emotionally debilitating. More
recently, our conversations and observations with brethren near and far have
indicated that we are in something like a divinely-ordained season of waiting.
Over
the last few years the spiritual landscape has changed dramatically. Beyond
what we might relate to or perceive as a quantitative increase, it’s more like
entering into another realm. We are impressed that a veil is being removed,
and those with eyes to see will perceive the essence of things as they really
are.
Where we
previously have dealt with outer effects and manifestations, the time has
fully come that we need to engage at a root (causative) level. Once
something is systemic, topical treatments are essentially fruitless. It’s
like casting the enemy from the house while the door is left wide open. This
moment requires a shift in our thinking accompanied by consequent changes in
how we look, what we see, where we stand, and what we choose to do.
Yeshua
told us, “No one having drunk old wine,
immediately desires new: for he says, ‘The old is better.’” (Lk.5:39) It’s
not easy to let go of what we have known for so long, but the new cannot come
until the old passes away.
If you
know something has changed but don’t really know what, if you have a sense of
disequilibrium, if you are wondering what to do with your life, if what was
once sure now seems clouded, know you are not alone. We are in
the midst of a global corporate spiritual quantum shift. Take a deep
breath, tighten your seatbelt, and “set
your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of
Yeshua the Messiah.” (1Pe.1:13)
Israel is a prophetic
nation existing in both the natural and spiritual realm. From Scripture and history we understand it is
God’s chosen channel through which spiritual dynamics are released into the
world. The Law, which is spiritual, went out from Zion, which is natural.
The connection between the natural and the spiritual…causes and effects…roots
and fruits…is often not recognized as it usually takes time for a seed to grow
to maturity. Physical fruit, or manifestations in the visible realm, are
invariably the product of roots existing in the invisible realm. With that
as a foundational principle let’s move on to consider it in real time.
As the
nation to whom the Word and the glory of God has been entrusted, it naturally
follows that Israel would be positioned as the global gatekeeper. We
believe it also follows that what Israel does or doesn’t do has implications
for the nations. If so, what then would be the result of freeing hundreds of
demonically-motivated convicted murderers into society? Surely it would open a gateway to the pit of
hell, releasing a spirit of murder into the global arena.
As far
as we can tell, nothing like this has ever been done before in human history.
The unprecedented has now become the precedent. We sense the dynamics of
this moment to be like when God would send forth a divine judgment. There is no
letup until the full appointed destruction has been accomplished. In these
days, from the Land and by the people that bear the Name of the Lord, a line
has been crossed from which there is no turning back. Once again Israel has
chosen Barabbas over the Way, the Truth and the Life. Once again we have
cast righteousness and judgment to be trampled underfoot. Once again we have
become an object of derision in the camp of our enemies. Once again the Name of
the Lord has been profaned among the nations.
As we are
writing this letter a major multi-front offensive is underway, seemingly
propelled by the present US administration. At this point, concerning all
things taking place in the national and international political arenas, we
have adopted the position that most probably nothing is what it seems on the
surface. Regardless of how this moment might turn out in the short term, the
moral and spiritual repercussions in the decision to release the terrorists
stands in the eternal court of the Lord.
Beyond
our rhetoric or that of Hamas, beyond the number of buildings in Gaza that have
been destroyed, beyond the true motives and hidden agendas of various world
leaders, spiritual transactions have taken place. Things have been set in
motion that will play out over the coming years. God will surely deal with
His enemies in His time. He will bring glory to His Name. We pray that all those
that love Him and await His appearing will be hidden in the shadow of His wings
with enough oil to carry us through any longer-than-expected night. Our next letter will pick up from this point.
Our
emphasis, according to our calling, has mainly to do with the unseen spiritual
realm. But we want to acknowledge the fact that in the Land there are so many
doing so much of great and eternal value. For those of you also
interested in the work taking place on the ground, we’d like to recommend
the digest put out by a longtime friend. …Donna Diorio. She has been at this work
faithfully for some 20 years. It is a well-considered compilation of
highlights from a wide and varied range of Israeli ministries. We know of no
other single address from which to easily get an overview of the work in
Israel. You can subscribe at: ArrowsDDiorio@protonmail.com or
donna@israelprayer.com. This is her
full-time work, so if you are blessed by it, please do consider becoming a
regular supporter.
On a more earthly
personal note, as prices have gone up everywhere, food costs in Israel have
nearly doubled. We would value your prayers for Emmaus Way’s monthly
contributions. It is the financial
umbrella for the Kleins, the Winklers, the Levins, the ministry center, the
guest house, and administrative assistance in Israel, Germany, and the US. May
the Lord bless you from Zion!
