Pray for Peace


It is amazing to me how fast the weeks are passing. Our lives are made up of moments that turn in to minutes, hours and days.

It is my desire to have a life that counts in the prayer department.

 Every Wednesday here on the blog we take the opportunity to pray for Jerusalem and all of Israel.  I usually add one other country that I have a burden for.  So today we will also be praying for Germany.


Father,

We come before you today to ask your blessings on Jerusalem and all of Israel.

We pray that in the days ahead you will burden our hearts more and more for Israel and teach us how to pray.

In your Word we are told to pray for the peace of Jerusalem and we know that you are peace--the only true peace comes from you--

We pray that you would protect Israel from those who would want to destroy her, who would want this country wiped from the face of the map.

When her enemies stretch forth their bows, may their arrows fall short--Psalm 58:7b

And not only that, Lord, but we pray that her enemies would have miraculous encounters with you--we pray that You would make Yourself real to them in visions and dreams, in encounters that we cannot even imagine.

And Germany, Lord, please bless the people of Germany today. Let your blessings flow unbounded, may many come to know You, even today.

Thank you so much for the readers of this blog from that part of the world. Be gracious and compassionate towards them, Lord, and enrich their lives abundantly with the knowledge of You.

Thank you for the power of prayer.

All things we ask in the name of Jesus,

Amen
