PLEASE PRAY FOR ISRAEL and all JEWISH PEOPLE
Please Pray for:
1. Release and Restoration of Hostages
- Pray for the immediate, safe release of all remaining hostages. As significant progress is made in the negotiations between Israel and Hamas, including the expected release of up to 33 hostages in the first phase, pray for divine breakthroughs in bringing all remaining hostages home safely. Ask for continued protection over the captives and that efforts toward their release would be successful, guided by God’s wisdom and intervention.
- Pray for comfort and peace for the families of the hostages. With families of hostages still awaiting their loved ones’ return, pray that they would experience God’s peace during this critical time. As the ceasefire deal nears agreement, pray that the families feel a renewed sense of hope and comfort, knowing that the negotiations are moving forward. Pray for resilience and strength for those who remain in this difficult waiting period, and for a swift resolution that will lead to reunion and healing.
- Pray for protection over the families of the hostages. As families of hostages endure the ongoing stress of this situation, pray for God’s shield to protect them from fear, anxiety, and despair. With the progress in ceasefire discussions and the potential for a breakthrough in the next few days, ask God to grant them courage and unwavering hope. Pray for creative solutions that will bring a peaceful resolution and ensure that all families are reunited in safety and peace.
2. Divine Protection and Safety
- Pray for the ongoing safety and protection of Israelis both within the country and abroad, especially with continual missile attacks from Yemen. Ask God to surround them with His divine shield and keep them safe from all harm.
- Pray for supernatural protection over all people in Israel—Jews, Christians, Muslims, Druze, and others. May God’s peace reign, and may He guide all people away from danger during these uncertain times.
- Pray for enduring protection and peace along Israel’s northern border with Lebanon, ensuring the safety and stability needed for Israeli-displaced families to return to their homes as the IDF transitions control of Southern Lebanon.
- Pray for protection over Israel’s civilians against terror attacks, that all plans to murder Israelis will be thwarted and fail.
3. Successful Defense, Military Support, and Wisdom for Security Forces
- Pray for a victorious outcome for Israel and her allies, particularly the USA, as they confront escalating regional threats, including the wave of recent attacks launched from Yemen. Multiple rockets and drones have targeted Israel, underscoring the growing threat posed by Iranian-backed Houthis. Ask for strategic wisdom and unity in efforts to ensure lasting peace and security in the region.
- Pray for supernatural protection, strength, and resilience for Israeli soldiers serving on all fronts as they respond to this multi-front conflict. May God provide healing and restoration for those impacted by the trauma of war and the courage to persevere in defending the nation.
- Pray for clear and accurate intelligence to thwart deadly attacks, recently from Yemen, which has launched more than 200 rockets and 170 drones over the past year. May Israel’s security forces be equipped with wisdom, resources, and divine guidance to safeguard its citizens and neutralize threats swiftly and effectively.
4. Divine Intervention and Victory in Conflict
- Ask God to instill fear in the hearts of Israel’s enemies, particularly Iran and its proxies, neutralizing their harmful intentions and preventing escalation.
- Pray for divine wisdom and discernment for Israel’s military and political leaders, so that they make strategic decisions that secure peace, protect the nation, and effectively address emerging threats.
5. Healing for Wounded Soldiers and Comfort for Families
- Pray for full & complete healing of all injured soldiers – mind, body & spirit.
- Pray for Moshe, a soldier in critical condition, asking for a miraculous recovery and healing.
- Lift up the families of fallen soldiers, seeking comfort and hope, and healing for those dealing with loss and grief.
6. Healing from Trauma and PTSD
- Pray for healing from PTSD and trauma for all those who survived the events of October 7th. Ask for emotional, mental, and spiritual restoration for the survivors and their families as they process and heal from the experience.
- Lift up the entire nation of Israel – children & youth especially – asking God to bring peace and healing to all as we all endure the ongoing trauma of war and its effects on daily life.
7. Protection from Rising Antisemitism
- Pray for protection over Jewish people worldwide as antisemitism rises, and for the global community to take strong, unified action against it.
8. Unity and Wisdom in Leadership
- For Israel’s political leaders to put aside differences and work together for the nation’s good.
- For wisdom, humility, and honesty among those in positions of authority.
- For divisions among the people to be healed, creating unity and mutual support.
- For the people of Israel to find hope and strength during these political and social struggles.
9. Awakening and Support from Believers Worldwide
- Seek that the Body of Messiah globally stands in prayer and support for God’s work and for Israel.
- Pray for continued resources and funding for initiatives like “Operation Restoration” that aid displaced Israeli families.
10. Spiritual Awakening and Peace Across the Region
- Pray for the people of Israel and the surrounding Arab nations to come to know the God of Israel, seeking truth, peace, and understanding.
- Ask for the Lord’s peace to dwell over Israel and within the hearts of all who live there.
