Wednesdays here on the blog we dedicate to praying for the Peace of Jerusalem and all of Israel. I pray that you will join me in this prayer.
And dear readers I hope you know that when I am praying for Israel, I am also praying for your country. God is alive and well all over this vast universe and He is more than willing and able to bring peace to your country and to mine.
I live in America and we are experiencing things here that I honestly never thought I would see in my lifetime.
We don't have the overt persecution of beheadings and such, but there is a spirit of hatred towards those who want to follow God's Word and do things His way.
But really we are not to be surprised by this, are we?
The Word of God predicts it!
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.
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
