When we initiated this ministry called "For Zion's Sake" approximately five years ago, we used the following three verses of our Lord God's Word as the basis or foundation for its existence:
Genesis 12:3 says Our Lord God will bless those who bless Israel.
Psalm 122:6 says, "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem."
Isaiah 62:1 says, "For Zion's Sake I will not remain silent."
We believe For Zion's Sake ministry is one of many throughout the world with similar purposes and the result is millions of Christians each day praying for Israel. What has been the result of our Lord God responding to all of these prayers?
An article on the Israel Today website this week was entitled Israel Recognizes Christian Zionism As A Strategic Asset. The article went on to say Israel recognizes the support from Christians as a strategic asset in its struggle to survive.
Recently, the annual Herzliya Conference took place which addressed Israel's security. Two top leaders in the Christian Zionist movement addressed the audience. Dr. Juergen Buhler, Director of the International Christian Embassy Jerusalem, challenged the hosts to "Think about the strategic opportunities that the Evangelical World can offer to the State of Israel."
Dr. Jerry Johnson, President of National Religious Broadcasters, also was a main speaker. He added, "The Jewish people have been a blessing for Christianity which came out of Judaism. Israel stands alone in this region in defense of liberty, freedom and the rule of law."
Thirty five years ago when I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior, I purposed in my heart to be obedient to Him each day. The scriptures used as the basis for this ministry illustrate how we can all be obedient in praying and supporting Israel. Be blessed each and every day in your obedience!
May The Lord Bless You And Keep You This Day And Every Day,
Frank
