DAY 27 - Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem

Pastor Sanford McQueen

Southfield, MI

Hello and thank you for supporting our 30 day prayer campaign. Today, day 27,

we get to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. You may be asking, “Why do we need

to pray for Jerusalem?” One reason would be found in Psalm 122 where the

Scripture says that we are to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. God instructs us to

pray for Jerusalem. Also in Romans chapter 1, the Scripture says that the Gospel

is to go out to the Jew first and then also to the Greek. So it’s in the heart of

God. It’s in the mind and the purpose of God that the Jewish people receive their

Messiah. And then also, in Genesis chapter 12, the Scripture declares that those

who bless Abraham’s descendants will be blessed indeed. Those that curse them

also will be cursed. Now, let me give you a few things that we can pray concerning

Jerusalem. Number one, we can pray for restoration and reconciliation of that

great nation to the heart of God. We can also pray that God will raise up watchmen

in every nation that will have a heart of God - that will have passion of God - that

will be willing to dedicate themselves to intercede and supplicate for Jerusalem.

We can pray that together. Amen. I’m encouraging you, certainly, to do that. And

then finally, we can pray that the people of this holy land will enjoy - that they will

have and will see with their eyes and experience with their lives the provision of

God, the power of God, the protection of God and, yes you’ve got it, the peace of

God. I know you are ready. Let’s continue to pray.
