Dear Praying Friends~Last week we prayed through Psalm 122 and on Thursday our prayer included “I pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” This past Saturday, we heard of the terrible attack on Israel which now is in a state of war. This month we continue to pray from 1 Chronicles 29:11 every day: Yours, Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, Lord, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all. This week I feel we should pray more intentionally for the Jewish people in Israel and around the world. Some days it feels like the return of the Lord is very close. No one knows for sure when, but I believe we must be diligent in prayer and sharing God’s Word during these difficult days. I encourage you to submit more fully this month to Holy Spirit as we pray on…SHOW US YOUR GLORY, LORD and LET YOUR KINGDOM COME! ~Gina
