Friday Prayer Points
Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu and Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon are faced with needing to make very tough decisions in relation to Israel's security. There have been some rocket attacks from Gaza, riots in Judea and Samaria that could lead to a third intifada, some attacks from the Syrian side of the Golan, and the continual threat of Iran and their development of atomic weapons. These two men in particular are the one who need to decide what Israel needs to do and when and how.
Abba, we want to thank you for PM Natanyahu and DM Ya'alon.
Enable them to have an excellent working relationship.
Give them clarity of mind and heart concerning all these issues and prevent any cloudiness from the enemy to hinder them in making decisions that are in line with Your Will.
Surround them with wise counsel, as You have said,
"Where there is no wisdom, the people fall; but in the multitude of wise counsel there is safety." Proverbs 11:14
Also, since You emphasized that nations should plan their war strategy by wise counsel, we ask especially for those type of people to be raised up to help Netanyahu and Ya'alon today. Proverbs 20:18; 24:6
Use these men for Your glory - as You have often done with Israel's leaders in times past. Exodus 14:13-18
"Asa cried to YHWH his God and said, 'YHWH, it is nothing with You to help, whether with many or with him who has no power. Help us, YHWH our God, for we rest on You and in Your name we go against this multitude. YHWH, You are God. Do not let man prevail against You. 2 Chronicles 14:11
Enable Israel's prime minister and defense minister to communicate to the nation clearly and truthfully.
When they do communicate, please prevent the media from distorting their words and meanings. Provide accurate intelligence information on what our enemies are doing, including when and where.
Enable the sum of these two men working together be greater than the individual parts.
