Bible verse of the day:

1 Timothy 2:1-2. First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. 
Prayer Request:
Pray for former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, for current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and for everyone who's seeking to lead in Israel into the next chapter, that God would grant wisdom, integrity, and courage to the people he raises up.
Pray for Israel's soldiers, reservists, and their families, especially those who have carried the weight of more than two and a half years of war, that God would strengthen and protect them and honor their service. 
Pray for the evangelical Christian community around the world that they would stay informed, engaged, and prayerful as Israel heads towards elections in October. And that our love for Israel would be rooted in scripture, not in politics.
