WE CRY OUT TO GOD
 
 
Psalm 102:1-2, 13-14 "Hear my prayer,O Lord! And let my cry for help come to You. Do not hide Your face from me in the day of my distress; incline Your ear to me; in the day when I call answer me quickly....You will arise and have compassion on Zion; for it is time to be gracious to her, for the appointed time has come. Surely Your servants find pleasure in her stones, and feel pity for her dust."
 
 
Lord God, we ask that a loud cry would rise up within us, that we would call out to You in a time of distress with confidence knowing that You hear us and answer us quickly. Hear our prayer, O Lord! Thank you for listening to our cries for help. Listen to the cries of Your people, Israel, and give us Your heart of compassion for them. Arise and have compassion on Your people. Hear their prayers, O Lord! Be gracious to Israel, for the time has come. We pray Your heart of compassion for her condition. Give us Your heart, Lord, and let the apple of Your eye become the center of our vision. Amen.
 
 
Psalm 22:4-5 "In You our fathers trusted; they trusted, and You delivered them. To You they cried out, and were delivered; in You they trusted and were not disappointed."
 
God, we read in the Bible of Your great faithfulness. When those who trusted in You cried out to You, You delivered each one. We ask, therefore, that the people of Israel would once again put their trust in You, the God of their fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. In the midst of great difficulty, we ask that they would cry out to You and that You would deliver them from all their troubles. Reveal Yourself to them. Show them again Your great faithfulness and that You are a God who does not disappoint.
 
Isaiah 27:6 "In the days to come Jacob will take root, Israel will blossom and sprout; and they will fill the whole world with fruit."
 
Thank you, Lord, for Your eternal Word and Your promises to Jacob. Prosper Israel. Let her take root, blossom, and sprout. Jesus said that only those who abide in Him will bear much fruit. We ask that Israel will abide in their Messiah so they can bear much, much fruit and that their fruit will fill the whole world. Let the fruit of revival come to Israel, and from Israel to the ends of the earth. Amen.
