Jerusalem, Israel
JULY 2019 PRAYER UPDATE
Israel and the
Nations
We pray for the current Israeli government and for the new elections
in September, and speak declarations and decrees of righteousness into every
aspect of the government…. nationally and locally. We declare that honesty and
integrity will become hallmarks of Israel’s financial institutions, businesses
and society. We pray that these same principles of righteousness, honesty and
integrity will become valued in this nation among the people, and that Kingdom
values will be enforced. We declare a fresh alignment of the words and thoughts
of our leaders, embraced in the Lord’s will, so that His plans for this nation,
in all their fullness, will be established!
Proverbs 16:3:
“Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and He will establish your plans.”
Proverbs 14:34:
“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin is a disgrace to any people.”
We pray that, at this time of a transitional government,
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other members of his current government,
will walk in righteousness; that the Lord will expose all sin. Also, we pray
for those candidates that are running for office in the next election,
including the latest candidate Ehud Barak – all will walk in righteousness and
not sin.
Proverbs 3:3: “Let not mercy and truth forsake you; bind
them around your neck; write them on the tablet of Your heart; and, so find
favor and high esteem in the sight of God and man.”
We call forth a fresh desire for truth and righteousness in
the hearts of all those who have influence at this time. We also declare
truthfulness, accuracy, and clarity to be heard in all government, political
and media statements.
Proverbs 16:12:
“Kings detest wrongdoing, for a throne is established through righteousness.”
We declare that true authority to rule and reign will be
built on a foundation of righteousness; and that which seems impossible with
man is now possible by the power of God’s Holy Spirit!
Secondly, we pray about the latest aggression of the Iranian
government that is looking for ways to increase the threat of war with Israel,
and with the United States in the Gulf region. We ask You, Lord, to raise up men
like David, to deal with the Goliath of Iran.
1 Samuel 17:45: “David said to the Philistine, ‘You come
against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name
of the LORD Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel whom you have defiled.' "
We also pray that Israel will not be entangled by the web of
Russia in Syria and in the Middle East; that God will expose the intent of the
heart of Russian President Vladimir Putin.
We pray for calm and peace to be extended by the Lord to
Israel’s borders, especially because of the continued explosive balloons being
sent across the Gaza border by Hamas; and because of the continued Palestinian
riots. We ask the Lord to stop this scenario of the explosive balloons that are
ruining Israel’s crop land in the south. And, we prayerfully call upon the Lord
to cause Hamas and the Palestinians to obey and enforce the current truce with
Israel.
