Blessings Over Israel  

Abba Father, Balaam spoke a blessing over Israel instead of cursing as Balak asked him to do-You gave these words to Balaam; "No misfortune is seen in Jacob, no misery observed in Israel.  The LORD their God is with them; the shout of the King is among them.  God brought them out of Egypt; they have the strength of a wild ox. There is no sorcery against Jacob, no divination against Israel.  It will now be said of Jacob    and of Israel, `See what God has done!'  The people rise like a lioness; they rouse themselves like a lion that does not rest till he devours his prey and drinks the blood of his victims." "How beautiful are your tents, O Jacob, your dwelling places, O Israel!

"Like valleys they spread out, like gardens beside a river, like aloes planted by the LORD, like cedars beside the waters.  Water will flow from their buckets; their seed will have abundant water. "Their king will be greater than Agag; their kingdom will be exalted.” God brought them out of Egypt;    they have the strength of a wild ox. They devour hostile nations and break their bones in pieces; with their arrows they pierce them; like a lion they crouch and lie down, like a lioness--who dares to rouse them?  "May those who bless you be blessed and those who curse you be cursed!"

"Your dwelling place is secure, your nest is set in a rock; yet you Kenites will be destroyed when Asshur takes you captive."  "Ah, who can live when God does this? Ships will come from the shores of Kittim; they will subdue Asshur and Eber, but they too will come to ruin."   A star will come out of Jacob; a scepter will rise out of Israel.  He will crush the foreheads of Moab, the skulls of all the sons of Sheth. Edom will be conquered; Seir, his enemy, will be conquered, but Israel will grow strong.  A ruler will come out of Jacob and destroy the survivors of the city."

 

Father God, I pray these same blessing over Israel once again and I ask that You honor them as You did back in Moses day. Protect Your people, O God. Protect the nation of America and United Kingdom as they take a stand against terrorism.

Break the teeth in the mouth of Israel’s enemies, O God; tear out, O LORD, the fangs of the lions! Let them vanish like water that flows away; when they draw the bow, let their arrows be blunted. 

 

Like a slug melting away as it moves along, like a stillborn child, may they not see the sun.  Before your pots can feel the heat of the thorns -- whether they be green or dry

 --the wicked will be swept away. The righteous will be glad when they are avenged, when they bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked.  Then men will say, “Surely the righteous still are rewarded; surely there is a God who judges the earth."

Deliver Israel from her enemies, O God; protect them from those who rise up against her. Deliver her from evildoers and save her from bloodthirsty men.

 

Father, fierce men conspire against Your people Israel for no offence and sin against them. They have done no wrong, yet Israel enemies are ready to attack them —Arise O God, to help Israel; look upon their plight, O Lord God Almighty, the God of Israel rouse Yourself to punish all the nations who come against Your people, show no mercy to the wicked traitors.

 

The enemies snarl like dogs and spew hatred from their mouths -they spew out swords from their lips and say, “Who can come against us?” But, You, O Lord laughs at them; You scoff at all the nations. O Lord our Strength; Israel watches for You. Be their fortress, their shield and loving God  -go before them into battle, save Israel with Your Right Hand of Mercy, so those You love may be delivered.

 

Let us hear You roar, as You go to battle against Your Covenant people’s enemies. You will be a shelter and strength to Your people.  May Israel, lead out with praise to their God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. May they sing the Psalms before You, giving praise to Your Greatness; Your strength; Your holiness. Praise to Yahweh, God of the Universe -praise to the Lord of lords, King of kings, as we hear the roaring of the mighty armies of the heavens going to battle for them.

Amen and Amen! Do it again Lord, for Your people Israel. In Jesus name I lift up this prayer and blessing over Israel.

Your daughter, Susie 3/15/03 (Scriptures are found in numbers 23 and Palms 58)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Let the Nations Be Judged

 

  

Arise, O Lord, do not let man prevail; let the nations be judged in Your site. Put them in fear, O Lord that the nations may know themselves to be but men. Your Word says, “Woe to you who lie awake at night plotting wickedness…” . O Father, let Israel’s adversaries be clothed with shame; and let them cover themselves with their own confusion. Destroy their plans, O Lord; confuse their tongues so that they might not communicate.

 

I pray for Prime Minister Sharon, that You would give him wisdom, discernment and strength and courage to obey You. Let Your right hand be upon him, upon the son whom You made strong. Father, I pray that Jerusalem will remain the undivided capitol of Israel and I pray for the peace of Jerusalem; may all who love this city prosper, Lord. Your promises to Israel are forever, and the Bible clearly states that the nations will be judged according to their position on Israel (Joel 3) According to Your Word the present international pressure to convince Israel to give up land for peace goes directly against Your Covenant made with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  O God, remind Israel of Your covenant and speak to President Bush of the USA that Your covenant is LAW- no way will You break covenant with Your people. Your promise to Israel is forever and You will never abandon her. “Remember the former things of old, for I am God and there is no other: I am God and there is none like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done, saying, “My Counsel shall stand, and I will do all My pleasure.” 

 

Set Your watchmen on the Walls, O God, may they never hold their peace day or night praying for the peace of Jerusalem and Your people Israel. May they not keep silent and give You no rest until You accomplish all You established and until You make Jerusalem the praise of the earth.

 

Father, I pray for the leadership of Israel and for them to be fully prepared for any casualties if Iraq should retaliate and we pray that causalities would be kept at a minimum. I pray, O Lord, of Host that You would defend Your people and all those who dwell in the Land.

 

Oh, make a river in the desert, O God, cover Israel under Your wings; O Lord scatter Your enemies, O Holy One of Israel You alone are mighty to save with Your right hand.

 

I pray for those who persecute the Jews, in thought, word, or deed. May the spirit of anti-Semitism be broken once and for all! I proclaim victory over it, O God.  Your word says You are near to all  who call on Your name-to all who call upon You in truth -You will fulfill the desire of those who fear You; You will also  hear their cries and save them- I cry out  to You, O God for the peace of Jerusalem and for Your divine will to be done on earth as it would be done in heaven. Hallelujah! Amen and Amen

 

In Jesus name I pray. 2/12/03

Eternal and Everlasting God Protect Israel

 

 

May You, O God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob be magnified and glorified as I lift up Your people Israel in prayer. May there be a transparency in my life that reveals the very heart of the King of kings, the LORD of lords. May I come humbly before Your Throne counting it an honor to stand before You as such a time as this. Bless Your holy name for ever! Amen

 

 How infinite and complete is Your wisdom; how deep is Your love; how everlasting is Your Word! May I continue to be a vessel, which You alone can keep filling as I continue to stand in the gap for Your people Israel.  Thank You, Lord, that You have put a burden on my heart for Your people. May I never fail You, in coming to Your Throne Room in intercessory pray for the Nation Israel. May You anoint me with the new oil of Your Holy Spirit! I am like an empty vessel, which needs to be filled with the Holy Spirit, as I serve the Most High God. My debt has been paid with the shed blood of my Lord and Master Jesus the Christ and I pray that I will live on the overflow, of Your Holy Spirit and that the oil will not stop flowing.

 

 Father, I cannot pray with power on my own, I must depend on Your Holy Spirit to empower me. I desire a continuous flow of communion with You.  I pray that the oil of the Holy Spirit will keep the fire burning in my heart and the hearts of Your people Israel. I pray that Your Light will shine brightly in a world that is turning increasingly darker and that Your Light will completely overcome that darkness. May Your people lean on the Holy One of Israel for her provision and protection.

 

As Abraham knew that God would provide the perfect sacrifice, we pray that Your people will again turn to You, and put their total trust and faith in the God of Abraham for their self-preservation.  O God, may Your people hear the clear command of Yeshua, their Commander –in-Chief, to move with Him when He calls, may they seek His face.

Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth." (John 4:23-24)

 

Father, I pray that more believers will be raised up to be intercessors for Israel in these perilous days ahead. May You be blessed to see the Body of Messiah rally up for Israel like never before. I pray for unity in the Body for the purpose of standing with Israel. May we all agree that there should be no place for anti-Semitism and Replacement Theology in the Body of Messiah!

 

Father, I pray that a spirit of compromise will be bound and that the spirit of truth will set man on the straight and narrow path toward true peace concerning Israel and Palestine. The United States of America gave Israel a Roadmap to peace, asking them to give up land to Palestine for their own state! We know, Father, by reading Your Word that the only way  peace will come, will be from the Prince of Peace, Yeshua, Your only Son.  And may that day come soon, LORD! Your Word says, You will not accept any division of Land that Your people has been restored to after two thousand years. This is not the time of scattering Your people, but the re-gathering. This is the time when the blood of Yeshua cries out from the soil of the very heart of Israel. This is the time when the dry bones of Ezekiel 37 has been brought to life again, and Israel is being restored! Hallelujah! Your land covenant is eternal and unconditional! No one can change this. O Father, may my Nation USA come to realize we must stand with Israel no matter what! May we become so convicted on this point and seek Your will for Israel. I pray that our President and his cabinet will come to the realization that Israel is the Apple of Your eye and that no amount of concession  with Palestine will change that. May our President seek Your face and be obedient to Your calling on his life. May he search the scriptures on this matter and seek Your face in prayer before he makes any decision concerning Israel and of going to war against Iraq. I pray that He and the leaders of this Nation will see the blessing that abounds when they seek to pursue the ways of the LORD.

 

I pray for unity of mind, heart and purpose in the Israeli leadership. I pray for divine wisdom and for the fear of the LORD and reverence of His holiness, will be the focal point of all their decision for Israel.

 

I pray  that the leadership will realize that military strength and man’s wisdom alone are not enough to fight future battles. I pray that they will acknowledge that the survival of Israel and the Jewish people is a spiritual battle, no physical; the battle is the Lord’s and He has the victory. I pray for the protection of Israel’s leadership, their families and for the protection of the entire community of Israel. I pray a wall of protection to surround the Jewish community in the Land. May the Lord of Host be with you.

 

Father, I pray for the families who suffer from the terror attacks in Israel. I lift up all the individual families who have lost loved one; dreams have been crushed, sons and daughter have been lost, each day they wake up hoping for life and they are faced with uncertainty. Some wedding could not take place because someone may have been in the wrong place at the wrong time. O, my Father, my heart grieves for these families who’s lost love ones, but also for the ones who fear every day that it may be their son or daughter, their mother or daddy. O, comfort them in their grief, and hold them in the shadow of Your wings.  Praise God, that someday You will wipe away ever tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow or crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things will have passed away! I pray for the peace of Jerusalem, and for Your glory to be revealed to all of Israel.

 

 

                                                   

(EPH 6:1)  Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. "Honor your father and mother"--which is the first commandment with a promise-- "that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth."    EPH 6:4 Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord.    (EPH 6:5) Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ.  Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but like slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart.  Serve wholeheartedly, as if you were serving the Lord, not men, 8 because you know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free.    (EPH 6:9)  And masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Do not threaten them, since you know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and there is no favoritism with him.

 

    (EPH 6:10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 1 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes.  For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.  Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,  and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.  And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.    (EPH 6:19)  Pray also for me, that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel,  for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should.    I am doing.  I am sending him to you for this very purpose, that you may know how we are, and that he may encourage you.

 

    (EPH 6:23)  Peace to the brothers, and love with faith from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 24 Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love.

 

May the Eternal and Everlasting God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob be magnified! Your thoughts are not our thoughts, neither are Your ways our ways, says the Lord. For as heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your ways and My thoughts than your thoughts. Isaiah 55:8- 9.

 

 

 

 

Wailing Wall in Jerusalem

 

Lamentations For Israel

 

Father, the roads to Zion mourn, no longer filled with joyous throngs who come to celebrate the Temple feast; the city gates are silent, her priest groan, her virgins have been dragged away. Bitterly she weeps.

Her enemies prosper, O God. They flaunt their god, Allah above the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. All her beauty and her majesty are gone; her princes are like starving deer that search for pasture. O Lord, see her plight, the enemy is triumph over her. Her enemies have plundered her completely, everything precious; her children, O God, have gone to their grave due to terrorist attacks. She has seen foreign nations violate her sacred Temple — foreigners, You have forbidden even to enter.

Israel groans and cries to her God, “Look O Lord, she prays, see how we are despised?” Jerusalem pleads for help but no one comforts her. See her anguish and despair, for her son’s and daughters are taken from her. Her heart is broken and her soul despairs, for her lost loved ones.

Hear her groans, O God; there is no one but Thee who can rescue her. All her enemies have heard of her troubles and they are glad. O, do to them as You promised, O God -do unto them, as they, have done unto Israel.

O, bend Your bow against Israel’s enemies, O God. Use Your strength against them; let Your fury be poured forth like fire against them. Destroy their forts and palaces, O God with Your very breath.

O God, Your people weep before You. O God, do You not see their tears; they fall down upon You like a river? They pour out their hearts like water to You, O God, lifting up hands to You, pleading for their deliverance.

O Lord, think! These are Your own people -Come to their rescue. The old men sit no longer in the city gates, the young no longer dance and sing. The joy of their glory is gone, the crown fallen from their head. Their hearts are faint and weary. O God, do not forsake Your people, Israel, come to their rescue.

O Lord, Israel is depending on You to save them from her persecutors. Do not let them pounce upon her as a lion would and maul and drag her away with no one to rescue her.

O Lord, rise up in anger against Israel’s enemies. Gather her enemies all before You; sit high above them, judging their sins. Justify Israel publicly, establish her honor and trust before them all. End all wickedness, 0 Lord, and bless all who truly worship the One true God, Yahweh.

Be Israel’s shield and defend her. May her enemies fall back and perish in Your presence, vindicate Israel, O God.

I am pleading for Your help, O Lord. Why am I praying like this? Because I know You will answer me, O God! Yes, listen as I pray for Your people, Israel. Show her Your strong love in wonderful ways. Protect her as You would the pupil of Your eye; hide them in the shadow of Your wings as You hover over them.

You will fill Israel with Your strength and protect her wherever she goes. Prepare her for battle and give her the strength to draw an iron bow. Give them the victory, my Father.

Accept my praise, O God for all Your glorious power, and as we open up the Ancient Gates for the King of Glory to reign in Israel. Hallelujah!

Rainbow over Israel

 

The Lord our Rock

 

Bless the Lord who is my unmovable Rock! You give me strength and skill; You are always kind and loving, You are my fortress, my tower of strength and safety, and my deliverer. You stand before me as a shield.

Bend down from heaven Lord and come. The mountains smoke beneath Your touch. Let loose Your lightening bolts, Your arrows against Israel’s enemies. Look upon Israel’s enemies and scatter them. Reach down from heaven and rescue Your people, 0 God, deliver them from deep waters, from the power of her enemies. Their mouths are filled with lies; they swear to the truth of what is false.

Israel will sing a new song with the ten-stringed harp for the great victory You will grant them. You are the One who will rescue Your people Israel, from her fatal wounds. Save her! Deliver her from her enemies, these liars, these treacherous men who plot to destroy Your chosen people.

 

Oh my Father here is a description of a truly happy land where Jehovah is God:

Israel’s sons will be vigorous and tall as growing palms; their daughters of graceful beauty, like the pillars of a palace wall. Their barns will be full to the brim with crops of every kind. Their fields will be filled with sheep by the thousands. Their oxen will be loaded down with produce, with no enemy attacking her walls, but peace everywhere. There will be no crime in her streets. Yes, happy are those who belong to Jehovah God. Israel will praise her God, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and bless Your name each day and forever. Hallelujah!
