Shalom Warriors,
Thank you for responding to the urgent call for a time of prayer dedicated to Israel! It's prayer warriors like you that stop the forces of the evil one and take a stand for the tiny nation of Israel in it's most trying times. As you are aware, the world is being forced to choose sides. There is no more fence-sitting when it comes to being either for or against Israel. YOU have chosen God's side and that means you love, support and pray for Israel and the Jewish people. As someone who lives in the land, I can't thank you enough for your prayers and encouragement.
Yesterday, Jerusalem was on a Red Alert and security forces were all throughout the city and several roads were closed down. Today, additional police have been called in for other existing threats. Just scrolling the Jerusalem Post will reveal countless threats: rockets and missiles being fired, smuggling in of explosives by the Palestinians and many other things. The intensity here has reached an all-time high and I have never seen such warnings as I have in this past week.
Prayer points are as follows:
- Please pray against the constant rockets and missiles that are being fired upon Israel on a daily basis. Many of them are reaching closer and closer to key areas, such as suburbs of Jerusalem.
- Please pray against the Hamas government which is an organized terrorist group: http://www.conceptwizard.com/terror/a1.html
- Please pray against those who are daily smuggling in explosives, knoves and other instruments of terrorism.
- Please pray for our Police, Intelligence and IDF Military Forces who are working excessively to protect those of us that live here in Israel.
- Please pray for the Iran threats that directly compromise Israel's security.
- Please pray for the Israeli government that is still in a state of disorganization.
- Please pray for safety for Israel as a whole.
- Please pray for anything else God puts upon your heart in regard to Israel.
Once again, thank you for being true prayer warriors on the other side of the world. You may not be physicially present on the "frontlines" over here, but you are here spiritually!
