Prayer

Raising up informed prayer and intercession are the primary activities of IFI. Through prayer, the hand of the Lord can be moved, and the course of nations altered. Would you join with us?

Prayer Points

These Prayer Points are the prayers which are prayed through at the "Intercessors For Israel" Friday Prayer Meetings. They are also sent out weekly via email.

  1. May 2012

  2. May 18th, 2012

    1. We opened this morning's meeting looking at Psalm 28:1-2…

    2. Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu did an in-depth interview with Time magazine. They are planning to show him on the cover with the words, 'The King of Israel', referring to his forming a very large governing coalition recently. There is a danger of this going to the prime minister's head and puffing him up with pride. God would then need to resist him (James 4:6). Yet there are reports that Bibi is very upset by what Time is trying to do - which is to put him in a bad light. So we lifted him up in prayer…

    3. Attacks by Palestinian terrorists have been on the rise. The IDF is very upset that Israel's mainstream media has not been reporting it. Usually, it is only if a Jew is murdered or if a Jew attacks an Arab that the media both here and elsewhere feels it is newsworthy. We prayed for Israel's internal security situation…

    4. Iran: Western powers think that as long as they can get Iran to talk, that is progress. Actually, the one thing that makes progress during these talks is Iran's nuclear program - the very thing the world wants to see stopped. There are more talks going on now and in the next few weeks. Israel needs to know what to do once these talks end…

    5. The current Syrian situation is difficult to pray into because it appears that whatever the outcome, it will not be good for Israel. President al-Assad has proven himself a mass killer, yet if he is overthrown the radical Muslim Brotherhood will most likely take over, as they are doing in Egypt. On top of this, al-Assad is better for the Syrian Christian minority…

    6. We ended by praying for the Body of Messiah - in Israel and internationally. A recent BBC global poll found that a majority polled saw Israel as the 3rd most dangerous nation on the planet - right after Iran and North Korea! Only in nations where there is a strong evangelical base, was Israel viewed favorably - with the top three being Nigeria, Kenya and America in that order. Messiah's Body must wake up to how far into the last days we have already traveled…

Guidelines for Corporate Prayer

Staying on Track

In Intercessors for Israel prayer meetings, the leadership asks those assembled to form small groups (three to four individuals is recommended) and introduces subjects for prayer. In corporate prayer, we do not pray whatever comes into our heart/mind. We need to stay on track and exercise discipline to be sharpshooters in prayer and hit the center of the target.
