Obama Mulls Iran Uranium Enrichment to Stay:  Latest reports from the White House are that President Obama is considering allowing Iran to keep its uranium enrichment facilities as long as they are used for peaceful purposes only.  This comes just ahead of the Geneva talks over Iran’s nuclear weapons program.  Obama is apparently also considering easing sanctions on Iran if they agree. PM Netanyahu is vehemently opposed to such an idea, for obvious reasons that Iran cannot be trusted and will most likely find a way to build its nuclear weapon at all costs.  Please pray that the LORD will frustrate the plans of Iran to achieve a nuclear weapon.  Please also pray that the world will NOT ease up sanctions on Iran and allow Iran to fool everyone with their fake plans for “peace”.  Lastly, please pray for Israel’s continued protection against her enemies who seek to destroy her.  For more, see Iran’s Nuclear Game

Creeping 3rd Intifada:  Member of Knesset (MK) Naftali Bennett has called for Israel to take the increasing attacks on Jewish Israelis very seriously, and has even termed it a “creeping intifada”.  The last two Palestinians intifadas (“uprising”) brought much death and destruction to Israel.  Israelis have been under increased attacks as of late and the rising tensions between Jews and Arabs in the land is quite concerning.  Please pray that a 3rd Intifada will not occur, and that Israel will seek the LORD for a solution to the tensions with the Palestinians, that will not divide the Land.  For more, see 3rd Intifada Rising

Please continue to pray for the Body of Messiah in Israel as the time of the tribulation draws near; 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! Have a blessed week…
