Our message this week will be different as it will revolve around a quote from the Bridges For Peace newsletter. Bridges For Peace is a ministry that exists to promote positive relationships between Jews and Christians.
The quote is as follows: "Why would someone move to a country at war? In fact, why would someone pack up their life in a prosperous, safe country like the United States or France and relocate to a country facing an evil enemy on the battlefield? There's more though. What would motivate someone to start over in a country at war that recently had its sovereign border breached by a genocidal terrorist army who massacred over 1,200 people, wounded nearly 5,000 and kidnapped 250 more, only to drag them back to their terror enclave to torture, rape and starve them? Yet during the first ten months of 2023 and throughout three subsequent months of war, 46,687 people from over 37 countries did just that. If you have not yet guessed it, I'm speaking about immigration to Israel." The author of this article is Rev. Peter Fast, International CEO of Bridges For Peace.
Let Us Pray Psalm 122, "Pray For The Peace Of Jerusalem."
Vs. 1 - "I was glad when they said to me, 'let us go into the house of The Lord.'"
Vs. 2 - "Our feet have been standing within your gates, O Jerusalem!"
Vs. 3 - "Jerusalem is built as a city that is compact together."
Vs. 4 - "Where the tribes go up, the tribes of The Lord, to the Testimony of Israel, to give thanks to the name of The Lord."
Vs. 5 - "For thrones are set there for judgement, the thrones of the house of David."
Vs. 6 - "Pray for the peace of Jerusalem; may they prosper who love you."
Vs. 7 - "Peace be within your walls, prosperity within your palaces."
Vs. 8 - "For the sake of my brethren and companions, I will say, 'Peace be within you.'"
Vs. 9 - "Because of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your good."
Blessings,
Frank
