Please Pray for Israel!
It would be very good for everyone to pray for Israel during this time. This is a very serious moment for Israel. From ancient times, in the book of Daniel, we read about the prince of Persia—a spiritual being whose goal has always been to destroy Israel and the Jewish people. Just as in Daniel’s day, I’m sure that G0d has dispatched His chief angel Michael, who has been assigned as the prince and protector of Israel. The war that we can see with our eyes is a reflection of the war we cannot see in the heavenly places.
We must lift our eyes to the L0rd. Our help comes from Him, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will prevail. From Hebrews chapter 12, we are encouraged to keep our eyes focused on Yeshua, the author and finisher of our faith, so that we do not lose heart.
If ever there was a time for prayer and international intercession, this is it. Gather your prayer partners and lift up the G0d of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the name of our Messiah Yeshua! He is our bulwark and our shield.
May the Holy One of Israel, who has become a light to the nations, arise! Arise, O L0rd, and let Your enemies be scattered. Let them run in defeat from Your presence.
Many of us have family members in Israel during this time of war. Let us pray that the L0rd Almighty will keep them safe and cover them under His wings. In addition to praying for the people of Israel, please also pray for the people of Persia, who have been held captive in their own land by leaders of radical Islam.
During this critical moment in Israel’s history, let us pray that G0d will arise. Arise, O L0rd, and let Your enemies be scattered. May Your presence be strong with the people of Israel right now, in Yeshua’s name. May the light of Messiah Yeshua shine in the midst of the darkness that seeks to overcome Israel. Israel must live, and our Father in heaven must draw all of us to Yeshua the Messiah.
May the prince of Persia be defeated, and may the darkness in Persia be brought to the light of Messiah!

“God, who brought them out of Egypt,
gives them the strength of a wild ox;
23 thus one can’t put a spell on Ya‘akov,
no magic will work against Isra’el.
It can now be said of Ya‘akov and Isra’el,
‘What is this that God has done?!’
24 “Here is a people rising up like a lioness;
like a lion he rears himself up —
he will not lie down till he eats up the prey
and drinks the blood of the slain.”
Numbers 23:22-24
