Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up the prayer request of our anonymous friend. We ask for Your divine intervention and protection over the nation of Israel. Your Word declares in Psalm 121:4 that You neither slumber nor sleep, and we trust in Your unwavering watchfulness over Your chosen people. We pray for a hedge of protection to surround Israel, guarding them from any harm or danger that may come their way.
Lord, we also lift up the Palestinians who may be causing trouble. We ask for Your mercy and grace to touch their hearts and bring them to a saving knowledge of Your Son, Jesus Christ. We know that salvation is Your desire for all people, as stated in 1 Timothy 2:4, and we pray that the troubled hearts of the Palestinians would be transformed by Your love and forgiveness.
Father, we acknowledge that peace in the Middle East can only come through You. We pray for reconciliation, understanding, and unity among all parties involved. May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, reign in the hearts of both Israelis and Palestinians, leading to a resolution that brings glory to Your name.
We thank You, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for Your faithfulness to answer according to Your perfect will. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
