Israel is enjoying several days of heavy rain and snow this weekend. We thank and praise Yehovah God for this blessing after four years of serious drought. The Sea of Galilee was at its lowest recorded point. But the total rain this weekend may exceed eleven or twelve inches! Pray that the flooding caused by this rain will not cost lives. There is also snow falling on Mt Hermon.
Friday will see rain, thunderstorms, hail, and strong winds in Israel’s north and center. There may be flooding along the coastline. Snow will fall on Mount Hermon, and there may be snow on the tops of northern and central mountains.
During the afternoon, the rain will spread to the northern Negev, and there may be flooding near the Dead Sea and in the Judean Desert.
Israeli farmers breathe a sigh of relief – Winter is here to stay: Thunderstorms, rain, and hail expected to remain over weekend. After two days of rain and stormy weather,farmers in northern Israel are beginning to breathe a sigh of relief. Israel National News
Ask Yehovah for rain
In the time of the latter rain.
Yehovah will make flashing clouds;
He will give them showers of rain,
Grass in the field for everyone. Zechariah 10:1
Be glad then, you children of Zion,
And rejoice in Yehovah your God;
For He has given you the former rain faithfully,
And He will cause the rain to come down for you—
The former rain, and the latter rain. Joel 2:23
Therefore be patient, brethren, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, waiting patiently for it until it receives the early and latter rain.first month. James 5:7
Keep praying, much more is needed to fill up the Sea of Galilee.

20 02 2021Israel Snow Part 2: So many people think of Israel as a desert, but this week they enjoyed a beautiful snowfall. From two feet on Mt. Hermon, to several inches in Jerusalem, Israelis rejoiced and played in the snow. It was a welcome break from the virus lockdowns, which are finally being lifted. Here is a link to some great snow pictures from this week. There was also abundant rain and another rise in the level of the Sea of Galilee. (Previous post: Snow in Israel?)
Yehovah gave specific instructions for us in the 21st Century to pray for rain. That is why I always include it as I close my posts. Zechariah 10 is a powerful declaration of His Plan to restore and save Israel and Judah! Here is the Biblical command:

We are living in the historic prophetic fulfillment of the great restoration of Israel! Here is a list of the promises:
