At Least Two Rockets Slam Into Eilat:At least two rockets slammed into the vacation city of Eilat. One rocket reportedly landed in the yard of a home while another landed in an open area. The Eilat airport was closed down due to the rocket fire. It is believed the rocket fire came from the Sinai. Please pray for there to be no further escalation on Israel’s border with Egypt. Please also pray that residents in Eilat would know God’s peace and that God would protect them from all violence. Lastly, please intercede for the peace of Israel. For more, see Rockets Hit Eilat

Yaalon: Israel May Have to Defend Against Iran Alone: Israel’s Defense Minister, Moshe Ya’alon, told reporters that Israel may have to defend herself against Iran alone. He said that a nuclear armed Iran is the most significant threat against both Israel and the world. This comes at the same time that a resolution passed in the US Senate stating that the US would stand by Israel diplomatically, militarily and in every other way if Israel struck Iran. Please pray that Israel’s leaders and other leaders dealing with Iran would be given wisdom and strength in dealing with the threat. Please also pray for the citizens of Iran who are under a repressive regime, that they would come to know the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the midst of their trials. Lastly, please pray for those in Israel to come to the full knowledge of the God who is their only protector, far more than armies and technologies. For more, see Yaalon on Iran

Please continue to pray for the Body of Messiah in Israel as Israel is facing uncertain times; please pray we will be a great source of blessing to all Israel and that through our witness, many in Israel will come to know their Messiah.  Please pray for strength, courage, gentleness, and boldness in our witness to our neighbors who do not yet know Yeshua.

Thank you for praying and standing with Israel! Shevuah Tov…
