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

With Hashem's help, to the merit of the holy tzaddikim, Master of the Universe, Almighty, in the new moon of Iyar, the initials of 'My enemies will return, they will be ashamed in an instant,' which is 312, month 418, Ziv 23 = 753, whose birth is on the night after the holy Shabbat at 12:06 and 4 parts, in which the lights of the world are revealed: Avraham 248, Yitzchak 208, Yaakov 182 = 638, in the merit of Hashem is One = 1, that we may be dust 350 and ashes 287 = 638, please Hashem, Almighty 31, who brought them out 187 from Egypt 420 = 638, my Almighty 41, my Almighty 41, hear 410 my voice 146 = 638, grant me a year 357 good 22 for blessing 257 = 636. And may I always merit to be in the humility 422 of spirit 214 = 636, and to merit in the love 408 of Hashem in the merit of Moshe 345 = 753, our teacher, 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 birth of Iyar, initials 'the head that is not known,' may we merit every month 318 in its renewal 318 = 636, to the light 243 of the King 90 the Mashiach 363 = 1026. And open for me, Hashem 26, may He be blessed, all the gates 580 of kedushah 420 = 1026, and save me from evil thoughts, and may I no longer have an evil thought forever, and through this may I merit the revelation of the explicit Name as Yael, as it is said: 'And she went softly' = 42, who struck Sisera, erased his head through the Name of 42, through which she extracted from his head the neshamah of Rabbi Akiva, and through this erased his head, pierced his temple, the wife 701 of Chever 210 the Kenite 175 = 1086, through which the neshamot of Sarah 505, Rivka 307, Rachel 238, Leah 36 = 1086 were impregnated in her, and also the neshamah of David 14 with Sarah 505, Rivka 307, Rachel 238, Leah 36 = 1100, and through this she pierced his temple, and merited the blessing 'Blessed above women is Yael, above women in the tent she shall be blessed' 440 in the tent 38 blessed 622 = 1100, through which the neshamot of David, Sarah, Rivka, Rachel, Leah were impregnated in her, she merited 'She hammered Sisera, pierced his temple.' And through this, may the verse be fulfilled in me: 'When leaders lead in Israel, when the people volunteer.' And may I merit teshuvah (repentance) out of love and all my sins will turn into merits, as it is said: 'If 41 your sins 88 are like scarlet 420, they shall be as white as snow' 333 = 1041. And all our days may we be attached 'in words of peace 376 and truth' 447 = 1041. And may it be fulfilled in me what is said: 'He 12 cast 365 his burden 23 upon 100 Hashem 26 who 501 loves him' 14 = 1041. 'For from Hashem 66 are the steps 214 of a man 205 established 132 and his way 236 He desires' 188 = 1041, and through this may the blessing be fulfilled in me: 'And all the nations of the earth shall be blessed 634 through you 22' 50 = 1041.
