I got this in today in an email and thought it is worth passing on for us to pray about.

 A WAKE UP NOTICE

Friends,
 
Occasionally something will come across my desktop that sends the sound of a shofar across my spirit.  One such email just arrived today from dear friends who live in the Golan Heights.  This couple is rich in faith and in discernment.  I believe that what was written below is a call for us to get up onto the walls of intercession, and to seek the face of God earnestly and immediately.  Sometimes the Lord allows us to see and to sense things that the enemy is doing, by noticing the little changes in the routine or in the atmosphere.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~
Today we had business to do in Jerusalem, so we left our home at 7 am and traveled down the east side of the Galilee, through Bet Shean and past the check point at Sede Trimot in the Jordan Valley.
 
Once we entered the Jordan Valley as we passed through the Arab agricultural areas we noticed the following which is most unusual;
 
1. There were no people visible working the in the fields.
2. There were no children along the side of the road.
3. There were no tractors or other farm vehicles anywhere to be seen.
4. All of the vegetables had been completely harvested and the fields were 100% empty.
5. No preparation of the fields was evident for the next planting...Plastic was everywhere from the prior crop.
6. The greenhouses had no plants in them.....
7. The vegetable stands that are normally filled to the brim from the harvest were completely vacant.
8. This is the peak season for growing vegetables in the Jordan Valley, yet everything had been harvested and nothing was growing waiting to be harvested or picked.
 
We concluded our business in Jerusalem and got back on the road again about 2:45 pm heading north up the Jordan Valley. Again, no people, no fruit stands, no crops, nothing!
 
Do these Arabs know something is about to happen that we do not know is coming? The 9th of Av is on July 23rd, which is the exact day both Temples in Jerusalem were destroyed hundreds of years apart...
 
We need your prayers for revelation and understanding of what the Lord was revealing to us today. Is war on the horizon? Please pray the Lord will give us discernment and understanding of what we are to do; where we are to position ourselves; and how to pray...
