This is the confidence that we have in approaching God; that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. (1 John 5:14)

When we come to God, we come as His child who is heard. That kind of confidence changes everything, especially when our hearts are heavy for Israel. Today we pray with a steady trust, asking for what aligns with His will, believing He is listening closely, and that He will act with wisdom, mercy, and power.

Lord, we come to You honestly and openly. You know what we are carrying, the concern we feel for Israel, and the questions we cannot answer. Still, we choose faith. Please guard Israel and her people, place Your protection over families, communities, and all who serve to defend and rescue. Give clear wisdom to leaders, courage to those on the front lines, and comfort to those who are grieving or afraid. Turn away violence, expose evil plans before they unfold, and make room for peace that only You can give. Let Your will be done in Israel, and keep our hearts faithful as we keep praying. Amen.
