Israel-Iran: Urgent prayers for peace

Christian organisations are calling for urgent prayers for lasting peace in Israel, Iran and the wider Middle East.

On social media, Messianic Jewish organisation Jews for Jesus posted a video from an unnamed staff worker in Israel in which he said: “It’s 4:00 AM in Israel [and] we’ve been awakened twice by push alerts and alarms … Would you stand with us and pray for the peace of Jerusalem; pray for peace in the whole area of the Middle East.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen. We’ve been alerted to stay next to shelters as an expected response from Iran may happen in the next hours or days. But would you pray for God to bring peace to this region, peace to all of the Middle East, for wisdom for the leaders.
