WE STAND WITH ISRAEL & PRAY FOR ISRAEL

Photo – Norman Miller blowing the shofar on all the border of Israel and Syria. We have prayed on all the borders of Israel a number of times, including at Sderot. Unfortunately, there was a serious border breach last weekend on Shabbat and the last day of Sukkot with Hamas attacking Israel by land, sea, and air. This has left 1200 Israelis brutally slaughtered, including elderly and Holocaust survivors, 2500 wounded, about 150 taken hostage to Gaza, children and women beheaded and mutilated, women raped, and unimaginable torture. 

This is the worst loss of life for Jewish people in one day since the Holocaust!!!

Our hearts are breaking as we stand with the people of Israel and Jews worldwide, especially with the pro-Hamas demonstration at the Sydney Opera House with a shameful reaction by the NSW police and government in facilitating it and telling Jews to stay home and not draw comfort from seeing the sails of the Sydney Opera House lit up with the colours of the Jewish flag.

Also shame on Foreign Minister Penny Wong telling Israel to show restraint in responding to this barbarism. Also, shame on Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese taking 4 days to contact the Australian Jewish community to express his condolences. He also missed out on joining in an international statement of condemnation of Hamas and expressing support for Israel.

We have contacted our considerable number of Jewish friends in Israel and Australia to express our support and offer comfort. Isaiah 40 says, “Comfort, comfort My people,” says your God. With gentle words, tender and kind … ” We are concerned that Jewish people in Australia are afraid and not safe. This is also a concern worldwide.

There have been missiles also from Lebanon and Syria. We know that Iran is behind Hamas and Hezbollah. Psalm 83 comes to mind and we need to pray that we don’t have a global conflict before God’s timing. Psalm 83:

O God, do not remain silent;
    do not turn a deaf ear,
    do not stand aloof, O God.
See how your enemies growl,
    how your foes rear their heads.
With cunning they conspire against your people;
    they plot against those you cherish.
“Come,” they say, “let us destroy them as a nation,
    so that Israel’s name is remembered no more.”
With one mind they plot together;
    they form an alliance against you—
the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
    of Moab and the Hagrites,
Byblos, Ammon and Amalek,
    Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
Even Assyria has joined them
    to reinforce Lot’s descendants.

Many Christians around the world are praying in support of Israel and that it does not become World War 3 before the Lord’s timing. Rick Riding is one of those who have made such a call. The Canberra Declaration has called its intercessors to join in a worldwide 21-day prayer call.
