31 DAYS OF SCRIPTURE/PRAYERS/PROCLAMATIONS TO
BLESS ISRAEL
Adapted from compilation by Derek Prince
Father God, remove the veil You have sovereignly placed over the eyes
of Israel, that they would recognize Yeshua as their Messiah. (2
Corinthians 3:14)
Lord, show Your mercy and favor to Israel in this set time. (Psalm
102:13)
We pray for the current leaders in Israel, including the prime
minister, the mayor of Jerusalem, and all those in military service.
Raise up government leaders in Israel (and worldwide) who will not
seek to "divide the land," and who would recognize the unique
significance of Jerusalem in God's end-time purposes.
He who scattered Israel will gather him, and will keep him as a
shepherd keeps his flock. (Jeremiah 31:10) Father, continue to draw
the Jewish people to You according to Your sovereign plan.
Let them all be confounded and turned back that hate Zion. Let
them be as grass upon the housetops, which withers before it grows up.
(Psalm 129:5-6) Lord, deal justly and swiftly with Your enemies.
Destroy and divide the tongues of those who would incite violence
against Israel. (Psalm 55:9) In the name of Yeshua, we bind every
false religion and false doctrine that does not acknowledge Your
eternal plan for the land and people of Israel.
The scepter of the wicked will not remain over the land allotted
to the righteous. (Psalm 125:3) Father, break the strongholds of
religion, pride and wickedness that seek to control Israel.
The Lord will not forsake His people for His great name's sake,
because it has pleased the Lord to make Israel His people. (1 Samuel
12:22) Use us to help others understand Your plan for Israel and Your
love for the Jewish people.
The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He makes
their plans of no effect. (Psalm 33:10) We declare that God's purposes
for Israel will be completely fulfilled and that He will be glorified.
Show Your loving kindness to Your people Israel and keep them as
the apple of Your eye. Hide them under the shadow of Your wings, from
the wicked who oppress them, from their deadly enemies who surround
them. (Psalm 17:7-9)
We pray that You would remember your covenants and promises
towards Israel, especially when others rise up against her to swallow
her alive. When their wrath is kindled against her, the waters will
not overwhelm her. God will not give her as prey to their teeth.
(Psalm 124)
Sanctify Your great name which has been profaned among the
nations, which has been profaned in the midst of Israel. That nations
shall know that the Lord is God, when He is sanctified in Israel
before their eyes. Sprinkle the clean water of Your Word on Israel and
cleanse her from her filthiness and from all her idols, including
abortion and the occult. Give Israel a new heart, and put a new spirit
within her. Remove her heart of stone and give her a heart of flesh
that can respond to the Holy Spirit, and cause her to walk in Your
statutes, keep Your commandments and do them. (Ezekiel 36:23-27)
Cause the church to fulfill its commission to preach the Gospel to
the whole world, so the full number of the Gentiles would come into
the Kingdom. Then all Israel will be saved. (Romans 11:25-26)
We pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6) and for it to
remain Israel's undivided capital.
Father, in Your mercy vanquish the tremendously powerful religious
spirits which dominate the whole territory-Jewish, Christian and
others.
We pray for a spirit of unity-for peace between religious and
secular Jews, for peace to exist between believers in the land.
We pray for the body of Messiah in Israel to become a praying,
maturing body. We pray that this body would allow the love and
compassion of Yeshua to flow through them and touch everyone they
encounter.
Raise up intercessors for Israel. Put more watchmen on the walls
of Jerusalem, who would give You no peace day or night until You
establish Jerusalem and make her the praise of the earth. (Isaiah
62:6-7).
Father, bring glory to Your name through the mercy You show to the
land. Bring the necessary seasonal rain upon the country. Cause the
crops to be bountiful.
We pray that the three spiritual forces of humanism,
Marxistsocialist philosophy, and the spiritual inheritance of the
Ottoman Empire will be broken and rendered powerless.
Bless Israel through the many immigrants who are flowing back to
the nation. Bring a sovereign, supernatural move of the Holy Spirit
among these new immigrants, that they might proclaim Your truth to
their fellow Jews.
We pray for a radical change in the Israeli system of government,
that divisiveness and partisanship would give way to unity and
cooperation; grant wisdom and revelation to all members of the Knesset
and Israel's Supreme Court.
We pray that, in the midst of the pressures, the people of Israel
will turn to You, God. We pray that You will hear the heart cries of
people in this land and have mercy. As it says in Isaiah 30:19, "You
shall weep no more. He will be very gracious to you at the sound of
your cry. When He hears it, He will answer."
Pour out Your Spirit upon the people of Israel-especially upon the
young people so that your works can be declared to future generations.
Raise up "sons of Zion" who take God's word seriously in
opposition to the humanistic "sons of Greece." (Zechariah 9:13)
We pray for the Holy Spirit to intervene in the current situation
in Israel. "When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of
the Lord shall lift up a standard against him." (Isaiah 59:19)
Turn the hearts of the people of Israel to trust in the name of
the Lord for deliverance-not in the "chariots and horses" of their
military might. (Zechariah 4:6)
God, raise up elders and young leaders to teach and train the new
generation of Israelis who are coming to faith in the Messiah
We pray that the Palestinian Arabs will come to faith in Messiah
and embrace God's end-time purpose for Israel; send forth laborers to
bring in the appointed harvest from the whole of the Middle East.
May Israel's relationship with the United States be strong, and
may our nation-and especially young believers-recognize and support
God's purposes for Israel.
Lord, we ask that young believers in America would come to love
the Jewish people as they seek to prepare the way for the return of
Messiah.
