Pray for Israel

 

Pray for peace in Jerusalem. May all who love this city prosper.

Psalm 122:6

I'm sure you are aware of the situation in Israel. Recently Pastor Dean Haun of First Baptist Church of Morristown, posted an article from a ministry contact in Israel. It is a guide to praying for Israel during this current crisis. 


PRAYING FOR ISRAEL…
The Hamaayan congregation in Israel (one of our partners) put out a great prayer guide for believers concerning this conflict:
1) Pray for the young people who have been called up to active military service as well as their families who see them off knowing how devastating this conflict is. Joining with the soldiers who are already in service. There are many from our congregation & all the congregations in Israel being called up daily.
2) Pray for the soldiers, for wisdom & discernment when looking for the terrorists who are still hiding in the villages & other place through the country.
3) Pray for the kidnapped soldiers & citizens, many elderly, women, small children, for their safety & quick release.
4) Pray for a wall of fire, for protection against the intervention of Hezbollah, the Muslim Shihad from Lebanon, allies of Iran, that they will not open another front against Israel from the North.
5) Our families and friends living in the south where the devastation is the most extensive. Pray they are safe, out of harm’s way and will be healed of post-traumatic stress. All of them will have friends/relatives that they celebrated the holidays with, now gone.
6) Our government and military to make wise, long-lasting decisions that honors God, seeks His help and wisdom to defeat the enemy and save our troops.
7) Many families lost their home along with all their belongings. Pray that God will supply and provide for them.

8) For the body of Yeshua (Jesus) to unite and be the light to their friends and family. Going through this trauma as well, for God to give them the strength to give out.

“See how they are rewarding us by coming to drive us out from Your possession which You have given us as an inheritance. Our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this great multitude that is coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are on You.” (2 Chronicles 20:11-12).

Thank you for praying!
