Pray According to God's Will as Revealed in the Holy Scriptures
Speaking from the region of Qumran, Israel - where the Dead Sea scrolls were found in 1947- Dean Bye shares on the importance of praying with an understanding of God’s will, as revealed through the Holy Scriptures. As you listen and meditate on this 20 minute video teaching- the first in a series of twelve- you will gain an understanding of “What time it is” on God’s prophetic clock and learn to pray effectively for Israel, in accordance to His will.
“And this is the confidence we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.” 1 John 5: 14-15
Watchman Training Series #2
Pray According to the Revelation of the Mystery
Still in the region of Qumran, Israel - where evidence of God’s Word was unearthed by the discovery of the Dead Sea scrolls in 1947- Dean Bye shares a KEY on how the Watchmen for Israel may manifest the wisdom of God to the heavenly realms (Ephesians 3:10), ie by praying and declaring the Word of God according to “the revelation of the mystery”, as Paul did.
Learn more as you join Dean in this 20 min study of Scriptures. May fresh revelation from the Holy Spirit pour down on you and further equip you to watch & pray for Israel in this hour!
“…how that by revelation He made known to me the mystery, which in other ages was not made known to the sons of men, as it has now been revealed by the Spirit to His holy apostles and prophets: that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs (together with the Jewish people), of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ the Messiah, through the gospel…” Ephesians 3:3-6
Watchman Training Series #3
Watch Diligently to See His Word Fulfilled
Speaking from the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, Dean Bye explains how the LORD diligently watches over His Word to perform it (Jeremiah 1:12).
As Watchmen for Israel, we are also called to be diligent in watching and praying to see that His Word is fulfilled. Moreover, just as Jesus lived to fulfill that which is written about Him in the Law and the Prophets, we too are called to cooperate with the Father in fulfilling that which is written about our role in these last days, as found in the Holy Scriptures.
"But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Matthew 26:56
“Then I said, ’Behold, I come; in the scroll of the book it is written of me; I delight to do thy will, O my God...” Psalm 40:7 & Hebrews 10:7.
Watchman Training Series #4
Understand the Call of the Gentiles - Romans 11
Still speaking from the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem, Dean Bye focuses on the importance of understanding the call of the Gentiles as expressed by Paul in Romans 11. Here we see that the part of the Bride which is made up of Gentile believers from the nations is called to make Israel jealous, by living out their salvation and showing the Jewish people the mercy that was shown to them in Messiah.
Furthermore, those who are willing to present their bodies as a living sacrifice for this purpose (Romans 12: 1-2) will be brought into closer intimacy with the Father and enabled by His grace to understand “what His will is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.”
By their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, to make them (the Jewish people) jealous. Now if their transgression be riches for the world and their failure be riches for the Gentiles, how much more will their fulfillment be!” Romans 11:11-12
Watchman Training Series #5
See and Hear by the Spirit What Time It Is!
Dean Bye is speaking from the Mount of Olives, where numerous Jewish people have been buried and are awaiting the resurrection of the dead. It is from this mountain that our Messiah ascended into heaven, and to this mountain that He will be returning one day!
Dean asks, “Why do we want to intercede for the Jewish people, pray and be about the Father’s business in this hour? –It has everything to do with the resurrection from the dead!”. As Paul points out in Romans 11:15, “For if their being cast away is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead?”
We’re living in the hour of their acceptance. God is accepting His people & His city Jerusalem, and He’s accepting them through a people that once were not His people, but have now been adopted into His family to make them jealous. The unity that Jesus prayed about (and that Paul spoke about) was between Jews and Gentiles, coming to the Father as one new man in their Messiah (Eph 2: 11-16).
Furthermore, we have been given the Holy Spirit for more than to experience the evidence of salvation, the fruit of the Spirit and the gifts of the Spirit in our lives. By the Holy Spirit, we have been given eyes to see and ears to hear the prophetic Scriptures that are unsealed to us in this hour, revealing God’s restoration of Israel and of the Kingdom to Israel. Yes, we are living in that hour, and we are called by God as Watchmen to declare, bring witness to, pray and intercede for the fulfillment of His purposes.
As we see by the Spirit “what time it is”, we can pray according to the Father’s will and know what to do as it relates to Israel and Jerusalem in this hour
Watchman Training Series #6
Watch and Pray One Hour With Me
Dean Bye, speaking from the Garden of Gethsemane, explains how one of the greatest temptations we can fall into is to overlook the Prophetic Scriptures and not see what God is doing in our days: He is rejoicing in doing good to His people and planting them back in the land of Israel "with all His heart and soul." (Jeremiah 32:41)
Oh, that we would get God's heart and respond accordingly! Dean exhorts us to be diligent in watching and praying, and even playing our part, to see His Word and purposes fulfilled in this hour.

"Then He returned to His disciples and found them sleeping. 'Simon,' he said to Peter, 'are you asleep? Could you not keep watch for one hour? Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.' " Mark 14:37-38
Watchman Training Series #7
Pray for His Name to be Hallowed - Ezekiel 36:23
Come with Dean Bye to the heartland of Israel, the Mountains of Ephraim in the midst of Samaria, and discover keys from God’s Word on how to be effective Watchmen for the House of Israel.
Find out who Jeremiah is speaking to in chapter 31, what he is saying, and how we can participate in the fulfillment of this ancient prophecy. Watchmen, it is time to cry out, “O LORD, save Your people, the remnant of Israelâ€!
Remember the Lord’s prayer? Are we doing our part to ensure that God's name will be hallowed? We can- by praying and helping in the RETURN of His people back to the land He promised them in an eternal covenant. As the Jewish people return to Israel and to their God, greater riches are released to the world and the nations will know that He is the LORD.
“And I will sanctify My great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am the LORD,†says the Lord God, “when I am hallowed in you before their eyes.†Ezekiel 36 :23
Watchman Training Series #8
Understand God's Heart & Our Role in Aliyah - Isaiah 49
How great is the faith of the Jewish people who leave the comfort of their homes in far off lands to pioneer and settle a desert wilderness in the Judeans Hills! Watch and see the establishing of a people called back by the God of their forefathers to rebuild the nation of Israel, transforming what was once barren into a lush and fertile land.
As Dean Bye points out, we too, Gentiles, have a role in this hour. Once we begin a relationship with the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and continue to walk with Him, He reveals Himself, our high calling, and destiny.
Discover for yourself how God is inviting you to participate in His holy plan - Aliyah, for the glory of His name!
Watchman Training Series #9
Blessing Israel To Please The Father- Numbers 22 & 23
Speaking from an area north of the Dead Sea and overlooking the mountains of Moab, Dean Bye has some key lessons for us. From the story of Balak and Balaam, he shares some of the subtle ways the enemy will try to lure us to “curse” Israel, and exhorts all Watchmen for Israel to gain discernment in these key times. He emphasizes how essential it is to walk in close relationship with God, knowing His Word by the Holy Spirit!
Based on Gen. 12:3, Dean prays that we will learn to remain humble before the LORD and desire to bless Israel with the right motive, that is, not for any personal gain but, as Balaam learned, because “it pleases the LORD to bless Israel”!(Num. 24:1) As we do so, we can expect the Spirit of God to come upon us and bless us -by turning us away from our iniquities (Acts 3:26)- and enable us to do whatever He desires. Our eyes will be opened and we will hear the words of God clearly. (Num. 24:2-4)
In this place of blessing in Him we will become more effective intercessors, able to endure and to persevere through tests and temptations. This will ultimately make us a greater blessing to His people and to the Body of Christ worldwide!
Watchman Training Series #10
Ruth and Rahab, Rise Up! - Joshua 2-6; Ruth
Standing in Israel by the plains of Jericho, near the Jordan River and across from the mountains of Moab, Dean Bye relates how Rahab- a prostitute from Jericho- and Ruth -the Moabitess- both chose to help and bless Israel, thus gaining favor with God and His people. Thereafter, things began to “just happen” for them: they both entered into a place of covenantal safety and blessing, and even became part of the lineage of Jesus, the Messiah Himself!
The Church in our day has a choice to either kiss Israel goodbye like Orpah did and turn to foreign God’s, or be like Ruth and cling to the Jewish people and to their God. “Your people will be my people, and your God, my God” (Ruth 1:16). The LORD is still looking for Gentiles today who will respond to His call to come alongside His people in love, to bless and comfort them, helping the “Naomis” return and settle in their homeland, as well as praying for His ultimate purposes to be fulfilled in Israel and the nations.
As Dean puts it, “It is one thing to ask Jesus Christ to come live in our lives; it’s another thing to invite the rest of Jesus’ family to live in our lives!” He challenges us to become like Ruth and Rahab in our attitudes: fearless, courageous and willing to lay down our lives for the Jewish people if need be. As we do, we will enjoy a deeper relationship with the Father Himself, and it will release greater faith in our own lives to believe that things can ‘just happen’ as we walk with Him
