We join together in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, to lift up the land of Israel in prayer, acknowledging its significance in biblical history and prophecy. Israel is indeed the land where our Lord Jesus Christ was born, ministered, died, and rose again, and it holds a special place in God's heart and plan. As we read in Zechariah 2:8 WEB, "For he who touches you touches the apple of his eye." We stand on this promise, asking for God's divine protection over Israel.
Father, We come before You, in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your hand of protection to cover Israel. Surround this nation with Your shield of faith and love, guarding it from all enemies that seek its harm. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem, as commanded in Psalm 122:6 WEB, "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Those who love you will prosper." Let Your peace and prosperity reign in their borders.
We also pray for the people of Israel, that they may find true peace and salvation through faith in Jesus Christ, the Messiah.
We agree with the words of Isaiah 62:1, 6-7 WEB, "For Zion’s sake will I not hold my peace, and for Jerusalem’s sake I will not rest, until its righteousness goes out as brightness, and its salvation as a lamp that burns... I have set watchmen on your walls, Jerusalem; they will never hold their peace day nor night: 'You who call on Yahweh, take no rest, and give him no rest, until he establishes, and until he makes Jerusalem a praise in the earth.'"
