Benefits of praying for Israel

Blessings as we bless Isreal

1. In Genesis 12:3, the Lord says in the covenant He makes with Abraham: “I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”  This relates not only to a people (the Jews), but it also relates to a land (Israel). God will judge nations and deal with them for their decisions, just as He does individuals. 

Therefore, as you bless Israel by praying for Jerusalem's peace, God says he will bless you. Historically, every nation who blessed Israel was blessed and prospered by God, and every nation that opposed Israel has been disciplined or destroyed by God.


 2. God inspired the writers of Scripture to make a timeless charge to all who follow Him: "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: may they prosper who love you." Psalm 122:6 Again - God always builds reward into obedience to Him & His Word.                      

When we pray for peace of Jerusalem ,we shall prosper Indeed.

I encourage everyone who believes in Jesus Christ to dedicate few hours this week and pray for Israel.

GLORY with PASTOR KHUMALO

Listen now on our Podcast 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Glory is virtually impossible to define. In a sense, God’s glory is the magnificence, worth, loveliness, and grandeur of his many perfections . More often, glory communicates God’s special presence, as in the pillars of glory and of fire ( Exod. 13:21–22 ) or the glory that filled the tabernacle (40:34–38). The primary Hebrew term for glory is  kabod . This word stems from a root that means “weight” or “heaviness.” Depending on its form, it could have the sense of “ honorable,” “dignified ,” “exalted,” or “revered.” C. John Collins explains that it became a “technical term for God’s manifest presence.” It is similar in many respects to the concept of God’s name in the Old Testament (see “ kabod ” in  New International Dictionary of Old Testament Theology and Exegesis ) . The primary Greek term for glory is  doxa . According to Sverre Aalen,  doxa  in secular Greek referred to an “opinion,” “conjecture,” “ repute,” “praise,” or ...

Right attitude

  An attitude of a believer in trials .  Amplified Bible James 1:2-4 Consider it nothing but joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you fall into various trials . Be assured that the testing of your faith [ through experience] produces endurance [leading to spiritual maturity, and inner peace].And let endurance have its perfect result and do a thorough work, so that you may be perfect and completely developed [in your faith], lacking in nothing . A believer should be excited and Joy over trials because it brings a testing of his faith . Faith must be tested. When faith is tested , FAITH is stretched and exercised.  Suffering and Pain are the only school that help to strengthen and to loosen your faith to activity.  Your faith should be checked and ascertain it's authenticity .  When Abraham was tested ,God said to him, bring your son as an offering and Abraham didn't doubt God but he simply obeyed as a result his faith was found by God to be authentic and genuin...

FAITH ACTIVATING GRACE ON YOU

Faith and grace are two very important subjects in the Bible. When you study the Bible, you'll find that both of them operate together. Both Romans 4:16 and Romans 5:1-2 illustrate this connection: "Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace." (Rom. 4:16) "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God." (Rom. 5:1-2) Faith gives us access into the grace of God; it is, therefore, important that we understand what faith is and what grace is. The grace of God is available to every believer, but it's accessed by faith. Faith is the accelerator of grace; it makes the grace of God go in your life. You can't receive anything in the grace of God except through the vehicle of the faith of God. What is faith? Hebrews 11:1 in the Amplified Bible answers this question: " Now faith is the assurance, th...
