Psalm 121:4

Behold, He who keeps Israel Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

Heavenly and Merciful Father,
With a heavy heart I come to You seeking help for those in Your Holy Land. Lifting up our eyes unto the hills to You Lord the maker of heaven and earth, and our keeper, please preserve the souls of Your people. May Your presence be known to the children of Israel as their spirit within them are overwhelmed with grieve and despair at the horrific attacks upon them. Be there refuge and strength, protecting and guiding them to safety. Father, please pour out Your mercy and grace as You tend to their cries for peace and deliverance from their enemies. Though they may walk through the valley of shadows may they fear no evil for You are with them. Your rod and staff shall comfort them. You are their ever-present help in this time of need. Lord thwarts the plans and schemes of those who have wickedness in their hearts and minds. Jesus taught us to pray for our enemies and those who persecute us, but Father I confess this is no easy task as I grapple with the news reports of horror and unimaginable hate. I cry out for justice but also am reminded of precious Jesus on the cross and His kind words (who could fathom) "Father forgive them they no not what they do."  Oh, Father please give wisdom to the leaders! Console those who are mourning. Forgive us Lord for all our iniquities. Save the lost. Help us to endure till the end. Jesus be glorified, magnified and personified. Maranatha. In your matchless name Jesus, amen.
