ISRAEL PRAYER
UPDATE – June 27th, 2005
2. PERSECUTION OF JEWISH BELIEVERS BY
ULTRA-ORTHODOX FORCES INCREASES.
As the identification of some streams of
Orthodox Judaism with the Land of Israel awakens the admiration and prayerful
support of many Believers, and this beneath the
banner that “Jews do not persecute or transfer other Jews”, an ironically
different aspect of this religion is also rising—the persecution of fellow Jews
who choose to believe that Yeshua (Jesus) is the Messiah and the Son of
God. Last Friday evening a group of worshippers gathered in
We should not be surprised or discouraged by
these things. In John 16:2-4 Yeshua speaks of a day when Jews who
persecute and even kill Jews who believe in Him as Messiah will think they are
“offering service to God.” And in Matt:
PLEASE PRAY:
*That the Spirit of Messiah would strengthen
and encourage Messianic Jews in
*That they would persevere and stand. That they would also come to know and be able to use the weapons of
the Holy Spirit which are at their disposal.
*That Messianic Jews (Jews who believe in
Jesus as Lord and Messiah), would excel even in the face of persecution and be
strong testimonies of the Holy One whom they serve.
*For the success of the business,
agricultural endeavors of Messianic Jews as they permeate the agricultural,
business and governmental strata of the society with the Spirit of Messiah.
*For the Ultra-Orthodox that the anti-Christ
spirit which controls so many of them would be broken…that many, like Shaul (Paul) on the road to Damascus, would come to know
the truth and the truth set them free.
