A Prayer for Israel

Cindy Dawson
Heavenly Father,
 
The psalmist tells us to “pray for the peace of Jerusalem.”
 
So I pray for peace for Your chosen people, Israel, and their beloved city today.
 
You have planned for Israel, provided for Israel, and protected Israel for thousands of years.
But as in days of old, there are those today who seek to harm, even destroy, Your people.
 
So I ask you to keep Israel in Your loving care. Put a spiritual hedge of protection around Your people and their land.
 
Watch over this nation as a Good Shepherd watches over His flock, and may Your chosen people find their ultimate safety and security in You.
 
While You watch over Your people, may Your Spirit awaken in them a hunger to embrace their Messiah—the One who died for them—until they see Him
face-to-face.
 
We pray this in His name,
 
Amen.

In His Love, Cindy

Is There Hope for America?

Cindy Dawson

The only hope for America is that she would seek Truth and love it. Jesus is the Truth. His Word is Truth, and therefore we have access to Truth.

The devil is the prince of this world and the father of lies. His goal is to deceive and destroy.

Jesus said, “You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.” John 8:44 NIV

The tolerance of Satan’s lies has had severe consequences:

  • Anti-semitism is at an all-time high.
  • Terrorism is cheered while the innocent are hated (U.S. college campuses).
  • Transgender surgery on children is promoted and protected by law.
  • Homosexuality is considered a normal lifestyle.
  • Over 1 million babies are murdered every year by abortion.
  • Freedom of speech, our First Amendment right, is being taken away by anyone who disagrees by labeling it “misinformation.”
  • America, once a Christian nation, has become anti-God. (Just ask any Christian over 70 years old. They have seen this happen right before their eyes.)

PRAY FOR AMERICA!

The Bible says, “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people—  for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.  This is good, and pleases God our Savior,  who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy 2: 1-4 NIV

I urge all Americans to prayerfully consider the choices before us in this election. Vote for the agenda you want to see carried out. They are very different.

“The king’s heart is like channels of water in the hand of the Lord;
He turns it wherever He pleases.” Proverbs 21:1 NASB

Many died to give us freedom and the right to vote. Don’t toss it aside.

“For to be free is not merely to cast off one’s chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others.” Nelson Mandela

Friday’s Verse, 10/11/24

Cindy Dawson

“As soon as it was night, the believers sent Paul and Silas away to Berea. On arriving there, they went to the Jewish synagogue.  Now the Berean Jews were of more noble character than those in Thessalonica, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true.” Acts 17:10-11 NIV (emphasis mine)

Lord, Teach us to be like the Bereans, examining the Scriptures to see if the things we read and hear are true. Amen

In His Love, Cindy

Tuesday’s Verse, 10/8/24

Cindy Dawson

“That is why we never give up. Though our bodies are dying, our spirits are being renewed every day.  For our present troubles are small and won’t last very long. Yet they produce for us a glory that vastly outweighs them and will last forever!  So we don’t look at the troubles we can see now; rather, we fix our gaze on things that cannot be seen. For the things we see now will soon be gone, but the things we cannot see will last forever.” 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 NLT

“He will cover you with his feathers,
    and under his wings you will find refuge;
    his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” Psalm 91:4 NIV

“A mother bird spreads her wings over her fledglings to protect them from storm and predator. She will allow herself to be wounded to protect them.” (Jeremiah Study Bible notes)

Friday’s Verse, 10/4/24

Cindy Dawson

“Hear, O Israel” … “For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.” Deuteronomy 6:4 and 7:6 NIV

Comments: Israel (in blue on the map) is about the size of the state of New Jersey in the U.S. The countries and their proxies surrounding it are trying to annihilate the Jewish people.

Israel is still God’s treasured possession. We would do well to remember it.

Verses for Meditation, 10/3/24

Cindy Dawson

“So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.

Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.” Ephesians 4:11-16 NIV (emphasis mine) Read full chapter
