 If you're joining us online, welcome, this is day 13 of the 21 Day Fast that we're participating in with some 6 million intercessors across the face of the earth, the Isaiah 62 Fast on behalf of Israel. It's an unprecedented historic prayer initiative and we are honored to be a part of it. Isaiah 40 verse 1 says comfort, O comfort my people, speak kindly to her speaking of Israel. And one of the primary ways that we comfort Israel is to talk to Abba about Israel in the place of prayer to agree with his heart concerning his heart and his plans and intentions for Israel. So if you have your Bible, we're going to jump right into prayer. You can turn to Habakkuk 3, a little book at the end of the Old Testament. And in verse 2, it says, Lord, I have heard the report about you and I fear. Lord, revive your work in the midst of the years. In the midst of the years, make it known. In wrath, remember mercy. And if we turn over just a couple books to the left, to the book of Micah chapter 7. Verse 14 says, make it my glasses. Shepherd your people with your scepter, the flock of your possession which dwells by itself in the woodland. In the midst of a fruitful field, let them feed in Bashan and Gilead as in the days of old, jumping over to verse 18. Who is a God like you who pardons iniquity and passes over the rebellious act of the remnant of his possession? He does not retain his anger forever because he delights in unchanging love or he delights in showing mercy. So Father, we just thank you for this privilege to stand on the wall by faith and to pray for Jerusalem and to pray for Israel. To agree with your heart and to agree with our brothers and sisters across the earth in this prayer initiative. We do just remind you of your word. We remind you of the days of old, God, when you bore your right arm into time and space over and over again and you revealed your power and your glory on behalf of Israel. We remind you God how you parted the Red Sea and brought them out of Egypt. How you fed them and watered them in the wilderness. How you established them back in the land in 1948. How you protected, preserved the nation of Israel time and time again, Lord, against countless enemies. And we just say, Lord, would you do it again? Would you remember mercy in this hour? Would you demonstrate your glory and your power again to her? We say, Lord, restrain your judgments against her. In her treason against you as king, Lord, we're asking that you would remember mercy today. That you would pour out unchanging love upon Israel today. In Jesus' name we pray. This is our cry. You never change. You remain the same yesterday, today, and forever. And you uphold your covenant promises to Israel today, Lord. So we lean into your heart, that heart that longs to be gracious to your people. That heart that longs to show mercy, that delights in showing mercy. Your heart, God, of a shepherd who longs to make them lie down in those peaceful pastures. God, we lean into your heart and we just say, would you bear mercy to her? Would you restrain judgment against her, God? And pour forth of your loving kindness on Israel today. In Jesus' name. Good Shepherd, people of Israel. Upon Israel. Have mercy, Lord. On chapter 10, verse 27. Jesus, as the good shepherd says, my sheep hear my voice. And I know them. And they follow me. And I give eternal life to them. And they will never perish. And no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father who has given them to me is greater than all. And no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. So Lord, we thank you that your covenant promises to Israel are yes and amen today. That every promise made to Israel, to Jerusalem, God. You are faithful to uphold. Good Shepherd, and that in you is life. And so we pray, Holy Spirit. The eyes of Israel to see Jesus, Messiah, as the good shepherd. That you would open for its voice. And that Israel would follow you again, Abba. As their God, as Messiah. Yourself as the good shepherd. To your people, Israel. Your possession in the apple of your eye. We're asking for a spirit of revelation in the knowledge of Jesus. To fill Israel today in your name. So thank you. Thank you for your faithfulness. We're going to go into a time of corporate worship now. And then in a little bit, we're going to come back into a second prayer cycle for Israel. Let's just begin to lift our eyes. Just behold the Lord. We're going to agree with heaven in that place of worship concerning who he is. Jesus found me just as I am. The presence of your majesty. The presence of your majesty. The presence of your majesty. The presence of your majesty. The presence of your majesty. In that posture of worship, we're going to shift back into our second prayer cycle for Israel. The Book of Acts, Peter's Sermon at the Pentecost. Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you and give ear to my words, for these people are not drunk as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day. But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel. And in the last days, it shall be, God declares that I will pour out my spirit on all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy. Your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams. Even on my male servants and female servants. In those days, I will pour out my spirit, and they shall prophesy. And I will show wonders in the heavens above, and signs on the earth below. Blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood. Before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day. And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Father, we just pray for the nation of Israel, Father. We pray for your chosen people to come to you, Lord, that the Holy Spirit would fall down over that nation, Father, and the scales that are on their eyes, Lord, will be removed, Father, and they will be able to see you clearly as the Messiah, Lord, the chosen one. Thank you, Lord, for your goodness and your faithfulness in Jesus' name. Do you, Jesus, after seven, verse 20, give truth to Jacob and unchanging love to Abraham, which you swore to our forefathers from the days of old. And so, Lord, here we stand as the prayer cannons of the earth are aimed at Israel. We join with that fire, God. We join with the agreement of your heart. And we say, Abba, would you do it again as in the days of old? Would you release your call? Would you release your voice? Would you release your glory? Say, Father, give to Israel. Let the blinders of deception and of truth that breaks in life to every man. Lation, would you break in to the city of the great King, Jerusalem? Would you break into Israel? Would you break into the hearts of your people, God, scattered across the face of the earth? Hammer that shatters every lie and every deception that opens up hearts got to receive the salvation truth of Jesus as Messiah. We pray, release truth to Israel. Jesus, that you are the way. Would you walk in to Israel as truth? Would you walk into Jerusalem to the hearts of your people, God, across the earth as truth? And would you let every lie give the Jesus as Messiah? We're praying, God, for just hearts to unlock to receive truth today. We're praying for minds, God, to be cleared of all deception in the name of the Lord Jesus that truth would be received in the hearts and the minds of your people. We say, Jesus, Messiah, the man who is called truth, the man who is called life, people Israel in Jesus' name. To their dreams, Lord. Visions in the day. Branding the hearts of the rabbis. With Abba, hammers to fall in hearts and minds of your people, Israel. We thank you for your faithfulness to do that. We thank you for this hour. God, we thank you for the privilege to stand as watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem even this morning. We thank you for what you're doing in these unprecedented times, Lord. On behalf of your people and on behalf of your church, God, on behalf of this place in this city, Lord, we don't take it lightly. And Lord, I ask that all that is transpired, all the intimate partnership with you in the place of prayer and all the worship and agreement with heaven concerning who you are, the declarations of your worth and your faithfulness. God, I ask that you would multiply them, many hours over right here at this altar, many hours over throughout our city and our nation and the nations of the earth that there would be prayer fires burning God on corporate altars and prayer fires burning on home altars on earth as it is in heaven. We thank you, Jesus. We thank for this honor as your Godly ones. And we bless you in Jesus' name. Amen. And amen. Well, thank you for coming downtown this morning and praying with us and agreeing with us in the place of worship. Thank you for joining us on the live stream from the cities and the nations you represent.
