Prayer for Purim

This coming week, from March 23-25, we will be celebrating Purim, a holiday that commemorates the story found in the book of Esther, where God saves the Jewish people through the life and faithfulness of Mordechai and a young, Hebrew girl named Esther. We ask for you to intercede with us during the Feast of Purim, as Esther did, for the divine intervention and salvation of the Jewish people. This is a time to also be prayerful about where we stand in light of this persecution. A testing is coming for the world, including the body of Messiah, as to where we will stand when all the nations come against Jerusalem (Zech. 14:16). Let us stand faithfully in prayer and seek God’s face for understanding, protection and salvation.
