Netanyahu Set to Meet with Obama:  PM Netanyahu will meet with President Obama at the end of September, when he is in the USA on a trip to speak at the UN.  The two will talk about the Iranian threat and Netanyahu will present four main conditions that Iran must meet in order to avoid a military strike.  Please pray for this meeting, even now; please pray that President Obama will have an open heart and mind and that Israel’s safety will be strong on his heart.  Please also pray for great favor for Netanyahu at the UN, against all odds, that his speech will be strong and well received.  For more, see Netanyahu USA Trip

Palestinian Suspect Killed in IDF Arrest Mission:  A 20-year-old Palestinian man was shot and later died when the IDF came to arrest him in the Palestinian town of Jenin.  The soldiers were attacked when they came to arrest the suspect, and when they returned fire, they hit the terror suspect.  He died of his wounds at a hospital soon thereafter.  Please pray that this situation will not fire up the current tense situation between Israel and the Palestinians.  Please pray that these kinds of incidents will not happen often, as it only adds to the unfortunate tensions between the two groups.  For more, see IDF Operation in Jenin

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…
