Prayer for the New Moon of Iyar 5775 by the Esteemed Rabbi Eliezer Berland

With the help of Hashem, for the sake of the unification of the Holy One, Blessed be He, and His Shechinah. Master of the World, All-Powerful, the new month of Iyar is an acronym for 'My enemies shall return, they shall be ashamed in a moment' (Oyeivai Yashuvu Yevoshu Rega), which is 312, month 418, radiance (ziv) 23 = 753. Its molad (birth) is on Motzaei Shabbat Kodesh at 12:06 and 4 chalakim, in which the pillars of the world are revealed: Abraham 248, Isaac 208, Jacob 182 = 638. In the merit of Hashem is One = 1, that we may become dust 350 and ashes 287 = 638. Please, Hashem, God 31, who brought them 187 out of Egypt 420 = 638. My God 41, my God 41, hear 410 my voice 146 = 638. Grant me a year 357 of goodness 22 for blessing 257 = 636. And may I always merit to be of lowly 422 spirit 214 = 636, and to merit the love 408 of Hashem in the merit of Moses 345 = 753, our Rebbe, peace be upon him. And through this, Hashem 26 our King 106, He 12 will save us 452 = 636. And in the merit of the molad of Iyar, an acronym for 'The Head that is not known' (Reisha D'lo Ityada), we shall merit every month 318, in its month 318 = 636, to the light 243 of 330 the King 90 Mashiach 363 = 1026. And You shall open for me, Hashem 26, Blessed be He, all the gates 580 of holiness 420 = 1026. And save me from evil thoughts, and may I never have an evil thought again forever. Through this, I will merit the revelation of the Explicit Name, like Yael, as it is said: 'And she went in stealth' = 42, for she struck Sisera and crushed his head through the Name of 42, through which she drew out the soul of Rabbi Akiva from his head. And through this, she crushed his head and pierced his temple, the wife 701 of Heber 210 the Kenite 175 = 1086. Through this, the souls of Sarah 505, Rebecca 307, Rachel 238, and Leah 36 were impregnated within her = 1086. And also the soul of David 14 with Sarah 505, Rebecca 307, Rachel 238, and Leah 36 = 1100. Through this, she struck and pierced his temple, and she merited the blessing 'Blessed above women shall Yael be, from women 440 in the tent 38 be blessed 622' = 1100. Because the souls of David, Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah were impregnated within her, she merited 'She struck Sisera, she crushed and pierced his temple.' And through this, the verse will be fulfilled in me: 'When the leaders lead in Israel, when the people offer themselves willingly.' And I will merit teshuvah (repentance) out of love, and all my sins will be transformed into merits, as it is said: 'If 41 your sins 31 be as scarlet 88, they shall be as white 420 as snow 333' 108 = 1041. And all our days we shall be attached to 'words 218 of peace 376 and truth 447' = 1041. And what is said will be fulfilled in me: 'He 12 cast 365 his burden 23 upon 100 Hashem 26, who 501 loved him 14' = 1041. 'For from Hashem 66 are the steps 214 of a man 205 established 132, and He delights 236 in his way 188' = 1041. And through this, the blessing will be fulfilled in me: 'And shall be blessed 634 in you 22 all 50 the nations 29 of the earth 296' = 1041.
