    1. This Shabbat's Torah portion has several verses that are very appropriate for Israel's current situation…

    2. Numbers 11:23, which is also part of this Shabbat's Torah portion, led us to also praise God for all He has done in restoring Israel - up to this very day…

    3. The IDF: The Israeli Defense Forces is facing for the first time since 1973 the possibility of a regional war against Israel. Besides praying for the army, we also prayed for the new recruits - mostly teenagers - who might be facing life and death decisions and situations too soon in their young lives…

    4. Israeli leaders: The three leaders who will be responsible for way the next war is fought are Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon and the IDF's Chief of Staff Benny Gantz. They especially need our prayer support…

    5. The 'peace' process: A continual pressure on Israel is the world's 'obsession' with seeing this land divided and a 'Palestine' created. US Secretary of State John Kerry made another trip to Israel to try and resurrect negotiations between Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority head Abbas. Yet, thank God, the Palestinians have put so many pre-conditions on the talks, that Kerry is just wasting time - his and Israel's…

    6. One of the most grievous issues that we deal with is the resistance of our brothers and sisters - the true Church - to God's prophetic plans for this nation and her people…

    7. Iran…

    8. Aliyah - the return of the Jewish exiles from the nations to home…

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.

General Prayer Topics

Regardless of current news, here are ongoing ways to pray and intercede for the people and Land of Israel:

  • Pray for the salvation of Israel.

  • Pray for aliyah (Jewish immigration to Israel).

  • Pray against any "land for peace" process.

  • Cry out for Israel to cry out.

  • Plead for mercy in the midst of God's righteous judgments.

  • Intercede for the salvation of Muslims.

  • Intercede for the Church, so that it wakes up to its responsibility toward Israel.
