Praying For Israel

It was a privilege to chat for a while with Robert Ilato, a member of the Knesset, Israel’s unicameral parliament, the country’s legislative body. Robert is also the Chairman of “Israel Beitenu” Faction and Chairman of the Israeli Hi-tech Caucus. As we shared I identified somewhat with the terrorism in Israel as I am from Belfast Northern Ireland where many of my family lived through the horrifying acts of the terrorism of the IRA.

Whatever the country or whatever the cause, terrorists are a worldwide family most of whom are trained in Syria.

This may be the closest I’ll ever be to the political government of Israel but we can all be spiritually close as we faithfully pray for this country which is the roots of our Christian faith. Israel not only gave us God’s Word but also gave us our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.

Psalm 122:6 Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee Peace be within thy walls.
