“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

God’s plans remain steadfast, even in moments of conflict. Today, as Israel has acted to defend itself against its enemies, we hold fast to the promise that His purpose is to bring hope, protection, and a future of peace to His people.

Lord, we ask for Your shield of protection over Israel in this time of conflict. Guide their leaders with wisdom, strengthen their defenders, and bring swift victory against those who seek harm. Let hope rise within the hearts of Your people, and may Your plans for a secure and prosperous future prevail. Keep us faithful in prayer as we stand with Israel, trusting in Your unfailing promises. Amen.
