Declaration/Replacement Verses:

And one cried to another and said:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;
The whole earth is full of His glory!” (Isaiah 6:3).

Of the increase of His government and peace
There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this (Isaiah 9:7).

“O Lord of hosts, God of Israel, the One who dwells between the cherubim, You are God, You alone, of all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth” (Isaiah 37:16).

“Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel,
And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
‘I am the First and I am the Last;
Besides Me there is no God’”  (Isaiah 44:6).

As for our Redeemer, the Lord of hosts is His name,
The Holy One of Israel (Isaiah 47:4).

But I am the Lord your God,
Who divided the sea whose waves roared—
The Lord of hosts is His name (Isaiah 51:15).

Prayers for Israel

For the nation and kingdom which will not serve you [Jerusalem] shall perish, and those nations shall be utterly ruined. Isaiah 60:12

Please pray for our Nation’s involvement and support for Israel in particular with the current events taking place this week.

Of the increase of His government and peace
There will be no end,
Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom,
To order it and establish it with judgment and justice
From that time forward, even forever.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this (Isaiah 9:7).

Thank you for your continued prayers!

Prayers for Israel

For the nation and kingdom which will not serve you [Jerusalem] shall perish,
and those nations shall be utterly ruined. Isaiah 60:12

Please pray for our Nation’s involvement and support for Israel.

Blessed are You Adonai, the Holy One of Israel, who keeps covenant with Israel. Thank You for Your Word that speaks blessings to Your people from Joel 3:18-21:

And it will come to pass in that day
That the mountains shall drip with new wine,
The hills shall flow with milk,
And all the brooks of Judah shall be flooded with water;
A fountain shall flow from the house of the Lord
And water the Valley of Acacias.

“Egypt shall be a desolation,
And Edom a desolate wilderness,
Because of violence against the people of Judah,
For they have shed innocent blood in their land.
But Judah shall abide forever,
And Jerusalem from generation to generation.
For I will acquit them of the guilt of bloodshed, whom I had not acquitted;
For the Lord dwells in Zion.” 

Amen.

Please pray for our Nation’s involvement and support for Israel.

Dear Heavenly Father, I lift up the nation of Israel and the Jewish people. May Israel fulfill Your original design of being a kingdom of priests (Ex 19:6). I pray that she be strong and of good courage to keep Your statutes and judgments as a nation in order to keep the land clean, which keeps You from punishing the iniquity on the land (Lev 18: 24-28). May Israel and Your people have wisdom by observing Your statutes. May they be a great nation that comes as a result of following Your statutes and righteous judgments. As they are obedient to Your voice, I bless them to endure as a nation, amen.
