SPARK: Igniting Faith, Family, and Revival

From Mourning to Revival: A Prophetic Prayer Over a Generation

Maria Termotto-Horwitz

Recorded live at the Blessed Beginnings book launch on August 3, 2025, this episode captures a Holy Spirit–charged moment as we declared a mighty prayer over our gathering. On what is known in Jewish history as one of the saddest days—the destruction of the Temple—God turned mourning into joy, marking my mom’s 55th birthday and the release of my book with a prophetic call to revival. Surrounded by seventy voices in unity, we proclaimed God’s promises, His outpouring, and His victory over our lives, our families, and our community. What happened at that farm felt like more than a book launch—it was a spiritual turning point.

SPEAKER_00:

Hi, Harry. Welcome. Thank you guys for coming here. Some of the most beautiful, spirit-filled, most loving people that we know. And thank you for being here on this very special day. And there's a lot of reasons why it's special, but I'm about to read some really crazy things that just make it 10 billion times more special. Y'all ready for this? Yes. Okay, I need some more. Are y'all ready? Woo! So on the way to the office, I'm like, why am I driving all the way to the office? Like, I'm at a party. Like, this is crazy. I should have gotten the mail the night before, but I didn't. So I'm going to the office. I'm realizing that Josh has a fob to the office, and it's a Saturday. No realtors are going to be there, okay? So I'm calling the office manager. I'm calling the owner of the offices. I'm like, I need a key. Good timing. And so then... Charles Post says, he's like, I'm going to say the most obvious thing. He's like, why don't you just call your father-in-law? I was like, that's a brilliant idea. He lived like right down the street from the office. He had a fob. So I called him. I showed up. The reason he's not here is because it's a very holy Jewish holiday. Not holiday, morning day. So I'm like, what day is it? He's like, it's the Tisha B'Av, the ninth of Av. I'm like, of course. What does that mean? So then he says, this is the saddest day in Jewish history. He said 586 BC, the first temple, Solomon's temple, was destroyed by the Babylonians. 70 AD, the second temple was destroyed by the Romans, scattering the Jewish people. It is also linked to the evil plot of Haman and Esther's time and other calamities throughout Jewish history, including expulsion, persecution, and so it's a really bad day, okay? A symbol of loss, exile, destruction. But in Jesus... In Jesus, mourning is turned into dancing. In Jesus, the broken becomes beautiful. In Jesus, the ruined temple is replaced by the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. And we are now the temples of God. So how powerful is it that on this very day, in the face of historical sorrow, when a frat a quarter maybe how many jews are in the world there's a lot of people mourning today we're launching a book about life and blessing yes we're honoring the legacy of a woman who lives with faith and joy and we're gathering a community to celebrate god's goodness this is god rewriting history in real time reversing the curse and filling the temple again this time with his spirit praise the lord yeah so Those of you who have papers, okay, if you're not gonna read it or declare it, give it to someone who will. But I'm calling out the lionesses and the lions, okay? So we're gonna read this together. Leo season, come on! My mom was a Leo, she was loud, she was beautiful. Those who knew her personally say amen. Blonde hair, blue eyes, just joy everywhere. But inwardly suffering. Broken family beginnings, broken marriage, just inwardly dying inside. And back in 2005, talking about suicide, depression, anxiety wasn't the norm. But now in 2025, I think it's an everyday topic now. So had my mom had you all, she would still be here. But she is still here. That's right. Maria, we love you. We're going to read the declaration, the prayer aloud, and the whole next page together. And then we're going to all anoint each other with holy oil that we prayed over. And we are just inviting the Holy Spirit. Okay, and the crazy thing is, who went to Christ Fellowship today? What was the message about? Can it be any more perfect? I didn't design this. He did. So, What was the message today in church? That the Holy Spirit comes with power. That's right. The Holy Spirit comes with his presence. That's right. His peace. His purification. That's right. So, come on. Come on. Let's do this. Who's ready for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit? Amen. Let's do this. Let's declare it. Okay. On this land. He's like, I can't hear you. Woo! Woo! a few weeks ago in church was that my hands were up like this like a martini cup and that god's blessings were pouring in and that the overflow was going on every single person around us amen and we've been seeing that in a big way britney can testify absolutely say it you're 30 seconds 30 seconds i just bought and sold a house in a week yeah god is And it was all gone. I literally prayed a prayer, the next day my house sold, prayed the prayer, next day I bought a house.

UNKNOWN:

Yes!

SPEAKER_00:

Her house wasn't even on the market! No. All cash was gone. No inspection, anointed buyer. Wow. Absolutely. and she's like, I'm afraid of selling it fully furnished because I won't have any furniture. What did I tell you? The house came fully furnished. The fully furnished house had$90,000 worth of brand new furniture. Wow. So allow God to surprise you in this season because that's what it's all about. And every single person here has a God story. And I encourage you to share your God story after we do this blessing, okay? Okay, are you all ready to declare? We're ready, yeah. You ready? Let's do some declaring on you. And we need to hear this loud. As loud as I'm talking, I'm expecting you to read this with me out loud, okay? Let's go. You lead us. Today, on this very day, the temple was destroyed. We declare, the temple is now within us. We are living stones, and this land is holy ground. This celebration is not a coincidence.

UNKNOWN:

It is divine reversal.

SPEAKER_00:

On this Tisha B'Av, the night above, we proclaim new beginnings, healing, joy, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Let the Lion of Judah roar! O Palm City, let the dry bones live again. Let the daughters and sons prophesize. Let every heart be set ablaze with God's glory. Amen. Today has created sorrow and devastation throughout history. We stand in the authority of the cross and declare a new legacy, a legacy of life, of joy, of healing, and of restoration. We thank you for the blood of Jesus that overcomes every curse, and we thank you that your spirit now dwells in us.

UNKNOWN:

Make us the living temples of your glory. Let us gather in the upper room moments and encounter them for our lives forever.

SPEAKER_00:

Let mothers, fathers, children, and every soul here be filled with the fire of your love. Pour out your spirit, O God. Come like a rushing wind, like the tongues of fire, break chains, heal hearts, awaken destinies. Let this book, Blessed Beginnings, become a vessel of your voice to the nations. And may Amanda's legacy live on through every life touched today. What the enemy meant for evil, you are turning for good. We bless this land, this farm, this community. And we say, come Holy Spirit, you are welcome here. In Yeshua's mighty name, Jesus our Messiah. Amen. Hallelujah. And the little child will guide them. So please get some holy oil from this princess. How she's gorgeous. Thank you. Everyone get some oil. Hold it strong. And then bless someone else. God bless you too.
