September 22 when the UN convenes it is the intention of the Palestinian Authority governing only the West Bank, to make a bid for UN recognition of a Palestinian State. There has been much groundwork laid to reinforce the attractiveness of a UN recognition – the flotillas, the Durban “anti-racism” conferences, etc. Yet the reality that before the crucial vote, the terrorists in Gaza could just not refrain from major attacks on Israel, shows us Psalm 2:1-6 in motion:
Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD, and against his anointed, saying, Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. He that sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. ...Yet have I set my King upon my holy hill of Zion.
Pray for the Messianic Jerusalem Institute of Justice-led demonstration (with Eagle’s Wings & World Zionist Org support) that will take place SEPT 21 in NYC outside the UN to protest anti-Israel Durban III. If you can be there join in, if not pray for a major impact to be made by those on site.

Pray for the Boycott Durban III rally to be held in Dag Hammerskojld Plaza (East 42nd ST, between 1st and 2nd Ave, close to the UN building) on SEPTEMBER 21 AT 11 AM. with your friends who need to know why the UN continually targets Israel for international censure. http://www.durban3nyc.com/
Most of the prayer letters Israelprayer received over the last week deal with the terror attacks and rockets flying into Israel from Gaza. Even though at this writing there is a tenuous ceasefire, many of the prayer requests will still hold over the next month or so – especially as the PA goes to the to be recognized as a state.
The New Reality | Yesterday’s attacks were a stark manifestation of the new reality that Israel faces. For the past thirty years since the signing of the peace treaty with Egypt, Israel’s southern border with Egypt has been predominantly peaceful. With the fall of the Mubarak Government last spring, the radical Islamic forces have obtained a new freedom.
Please pray for Israel’s leaders. The current situation is volatile, unpredictable and dangerous. They need great wisdom as they respond to the current aggression against Israel and develop new strategies to deal with these new realities.
Also pray against the forces of Islamic Jihad, the world wide movement that is causing death and destruction throughout the earth. The attacks in Israel, the continual call for the destruction of this nation and the terror that pervades the whole earth are all part of a radical Islamic strategy that seeks the destruction of all western democracies, and ultimately world domination and control.
From Beer Sheva: “I do not believe that any believer is exempt from being harmed, either directly or indirectly. What will distinguish us is our reaction and response in the event of personal suffering, and how we relate to others who do suffer.” Pray for the Body of Messiah to be under the Abba’s protective wings & prepared to meet the needs of those terrorized and/or harmed.
Pray for the diplomatic front: “…there has been a major escalation of tension between Egypt and Israel.”
“The already fragile Israeli-Egyptian relationship is now further jeopardized as the Egyptian lack of will or ability to stop the terrorists speaks loudly of their future intentions towards Israel. It also reveals the inherent danger and delusion of peace treaties with Muslim-controlled countries. The peace treaty on paper will not control terrorist attacks, and cannot prevent a takeover by more extremist Muslim forces in the future.
Pray for the media coverage: “Every missile that is fired into Israel is aimed at civilian targets. The inequality of the world’s response to this fact must be exposed…. The beginning of this event was the unprovoked terror attack and murder of eight Israeli citizens in southern Israel by Palestinian terrorists from Gaza. The Western press is already talking of an ‘escalating cycle of violence’. Please do not lose sight of the truth that these events are not "cycles of violence" but have a starting point.”
“Israel is increasingly finding itself in the situation it was in before the Yom Kippur War. It appears that the peace treaties between Israel, Jordan and Egypt are crumbling. More importantly, the attitude of those nation's citizens is increasingly filled with hatred of Israel…. perhaps the most dangerous part of all this is that the collective Arab ego is again reaching an understanding that this is the time that “Allah” has appointed for the destruction of Israel.”
“Please be faithful in lifting up Israel during this difficult period. We also encourage you to present the truth of the situation to as many as will listen. And finally be encouraged because the one who determines the destiny of nations is seated on the throne in heaven and He is not sleeping.”
This report from Ron Cantor about his wife “Elana and her mother were walking on the beach in Ashkelon on Friday morning when several Kassam and Grad Rockets flew over them from Gaza on their way to Ashdod. A Yeshiva (religious school) was hit and 10 people were injured.” Thank God for His protection!
Pray for the Israelis who live in the region surrounding Gaza: Only people who have lived with this ongoing threat for all the years since Israel pulled out of the Gaza strip can have the perspective that they do. Please pray for …all the families in the South of Israel who are under attack at this time.”
The Kehila.org website run by the son-in-law of Howard Bass in Beer Sheva features three compelling Videos from the Deadly Weekend in Israel provided by Maoz Ministries. http://www.kehila.org/en/posts/220-compelling-video-from-the-deadly-weekend-in-israel This is a valuable site for those inside and outside Israel. Pray for them, as well as for the Beer Sheva Bible House.
The Messianic Humanitarian Aid Hands of Mercy http://www.israel-handsofmercy.org/ has been helping Israeli who live around the Gaza region for years. They continue this important work and if you want to give to help victims, please prioritize your giving to Messianic-run ministries.
The Israeli Supreme Court has ruled against Palestinian villagers seeking to reroute a section of the separation barrier along the Jerusalem border saying the barrier is crucial to keep out terrorists – which it has brought to a virtual complete halt. Israel agreed to facilitate water and farmland access for the villagers.
Howard Bass writes something we strongly agree with: “Today Israel and Jewish people curse -- although not always knowingly -- both Jesus and those who believe in Him. And Israel herself finds the nations delegitimizing and cursing the truth of her existence, and her witness to the one true God -- even in her unbelief. “ Pray Israelis will cry out “Baruch haba b’Shem Adonai!” Blessed is he – including Israeli Messianic Jews - who come in the Name of the LORD!
Pray for the young adult generation of Messianic Israelis who are taking their strategic places in the society of their nation – whether as spiritual leaders or business leaders – this is a generation destined by God to mightily impact the salvation of Israel. Pray for them to excel with a spirit of excellence and the mantle for emerging as leaders as the prophet Daniel walked in.
Pray for the world’s only Messianic kibbutz in Israel which is seeking to develop as a housing development for young Messianic families and also as a strategic industrial park. “Because of persecution against Messianic Jews, establishing businesses is very difficult. Supplying an infrastructure through a Messianic-owned industrial park will enable new business and professional enterprises to be launched. And succeed. Please pray, as there is much spiritual warfare”
Young Israeli ministries continue to that the word of the Lord out of Zion – with ministries into the Congo and Italy. Nearly 1,000 Israeli youth plus over 150 Palestinians took part in the Elav Prayer & Worship gathering in Tel Aviv. Pray for lasting fruit and true bonds of brotherly love in all these young people.
Thank God for the continuing increase of believers from the East coming up to Jerusalem for the purpose of connecting with the Body of Believers in Israel. The last to come seem to be the first to recognize the significance of the witness of Yeshua in the lives of Israeli Jews.
From this time forward – despite all the conflicts with terror & Islamist states – the nation of Israel will be gearing up for the latter harvest Holidays – and for the peak tourist season. Pray for the hearts of their family members, neighbors, co-workers and friends to be opened in this season of get-togethers to the good news.
Pray for the Israeli ministries who are now booking speaking engagements – that God would open doors for them to connect with those who would pray and support their laborers. Also – that seeds planted in the past that have laid dormant or decreased since the worldwide economic downturn – would begin to burst forth blossoming with fruit. The earth is the Lord’s and the fullness thereof!
Romans 12:10 calls us to be “Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another.” And Galatians 6:10 urges us to “As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.”
A hearing on the mental ability of anti-missionary bomber Jack Teitel to stand trial will be held on Sept 4th. The judge’s decision will not likely be shared at that time, but the Ortiz family expect to be notified by letter or by the prosecutor. It is very important that an open trial in this case is held and that Jack Teitel is not allowed to slip through accountability for his actions motivated by religious hatred – not mental instability!
On a personal note, over the past couple of years as I have read of the work and testimonies of the House of Victory rehab ministry of the Carmel Congregation, it often made me jealous for one of my relatives who desperately needs to be in that kind of program. Today he entered such a program here in Texas. Thank God for those who minister to the down and out, those with no hope BUT GOD.

Daniel Decker, son of Jerusalem pastor David Decker and brother of Michael Decker, an attorney with the Jerusalem Institute of Justice (Messianic Attorneys For the Advancement of Civil Rights, Freedom of Religion and Social Justice in the Nation of Israel), has launched a brand new division for Eshet Incoming Tours, called "Jerusalem Eternal Tours" or JET.
Eshet Incoming, was established in 1987 and is today recognized as one of the leading incoming tour operators in Israel and the new JET division, comes with the same great service and reputation for excellence of the Eshet Incoming tours. The JET division will focus EXCLUSIVELY on bringing Christians to Israel for a spiritually minded pilgrimage, a life changing odyssey of faith.
Decker’s JET division will be catering to the faith community to provide all types of Christian tour groups to the Holy Land, but the heart of the vision is to develop special "prayer tours", designed for prayer warriors. In addition to visiting the Holy land to see the tourist sites, many are looking for a more specifically designed tour that will position prayer warriors to pray at strategic spots in Israel.
Whether a group of 10 to 1,000, the Jet-Eshet partnership can provide an amazing Holy Land experience with a seasoned, highly trained staff to guide, support and make your tour of Israel the tour of your dreams.
For more information see the JET website and contact Daniel, who has deep family roots in the Land – born and raised in a strong Christian home in Jerusalem.
The Israelprayer Messianic Marketplace is not an online store and Israelprayer does not receive any commission or other compensation for the promotional advertising of the Israeli believers' businesses.
