“Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.” (Luke 18:1)
In times of weariness and uncertainty, we are reminded that persistent prayer is not in vain. As members of the Wall of Prayer, we refuse to grow discouraged, but instead press on in continual intercession for Israel, trusting that God hears every cry and moves according to His perfect wisdom and timing.
Lord, strengthen our hearts to pray without ceasing. When we are tempted to give up, renew our faith and remind us that You are always at work, even when we cannot see it. We lift up Israel before You today. Protect her from every enemy, comfort those who mourn, guard her borders, and grant wisdom and courage to her leaders. Let Your peace surround Jerusalem and Your purposes stand firm over the land and the people You have chosen. Use our persistent prayers as part of the covering You are placing over Israel, and keep us faithful in this calling. Amen.
