What Leaders Are Saying

Read what some of the world's top leaders are saying about the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem.

John Paul Jackson - Streams Ministries International

"We would do well to heed and believe with the apostle Paul when he penned, “If their transgression means riches for the world, and their loss means riches for the Gentiles, how much greater riches will their fullness bring.” We must pray for the peace of Jerusalem, that their fullness might be fulfilled."

Jill Austin - Master Potter Ministries

"Praying for the peace of Jerusalem is a Biblical mandate from the Lord Himself. It is His heartbeat for His people. This intense, strategic battle between the kingdom of darkness and the Kingdom of God will only be won on our knees when we, the Body of Christ, unite in agreement and...give Him no rest until He establishes Jerusalem and makes her a praise in the earth. Isa. 62:7 (Amplified). Because I am a German Jew, this call is a top priority of mine!" Please note: Although Jill Austin went home to be with Jesus on January 09, 2009, her exhortation is as relevant now as when she first shared it with us.

Barabara Yoder - Shekinah Christian Church

"We have a biblical mandate in Psalm 122: 6-9 to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Our prosperity is linked to ones heart for Jerusalem. We must pray for and love Jerusalem, seek its good if we are to prosper. I fully support this national effort to pray for the peace of Jerusalem." 



Bob Bakke - Global Day of Prayer

 “With the fearful and seemingly intractable dangers facing our generation and Israel, it is incumbent upon all Christians to plead with God for the outpouring of his mercy and for the establishment of a joyous and persistent ‘Shalom’ throughout all the land of the Bible. May the Lord answer our prayers. May the seed of Abraham know God and the grace and power of his hand.”
 
Chuck Pierce - Glory of Zion Ministries International

"When we bless God’s covenant we receive the blessing of the covenant."






Dick Eastman - Every Home for Christ

"The call to prayer for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6-8) is one of the great appeals for prayer with promises, in all the Bible. To pray daily as such demonstrates our love for God’s chosen people and with that, according to verse six, comes “security” (NIV) and prosperity (NLT). Personally I consider my daily time of prayer incomplete if I haven’t specifically prayed for the peace of Jerusalem."

Dutch Sheets - Dutch Sheets Ministries

"God is sovereignly aligning many nations and individuals with His redemptive purposes concerning Israel. Do not miss your opportunity to bless them and receive the promised blessing in return."




Ford Taylor - Transformation Cincinnati Northern Kentucky

"May believers in Jesus set aside their personal agendas for a world wide vision in prayers including praying for the peace of Jerusalem, '...the city of our God, in the mountain of His holiness.'" (Psalm 48:1)

Paula White - Paula White Ministries

"It is not a suggestion. It is an absolute commandment and a commision for us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem. God has trusted us, this generation, to be at the forefront of the greatest move of God in the earth today. I believe all history longs to have lived in the day in which we stand, so as believers, we undestand not only the privelage, but also the responsibility."




Jim Hutchens - The Jerusalem Connection International

"As we pray for the peace of Jerusalem, we are also responding to the mandate, “to comfort, yes comfort my people, says the Lord. Speak tenderly to Jerusalem.” (Isa. 40:1-2) In keeping this commitment to pray we are “showing mercy because of the mercy we have received in Christ. (Rom. 11:30-31)"
