A time for intercession and lament

Bibles for Mideast has six underground churches in Palestine. As Christians in an Arab land, members of those churches have never ‘had it easy’ but now, having fled to the West Bank from their now-destroyed homes in Gaza, they lack food, water, clothes, medicine and electricity. Thankfully though, all are safe! While their situation is precarious, our Lord protects them mightily.

With their mental and spiritual support resting with Israel, they assure us they can palpably feel the Lord’s Presence. They spend much of their time praying for a stop to the war between Israel and Palestine. Kindly remember them in your prayers.

Lisa Loden’s words about hostilities in the region back in May of 2021 are as true today as ever.

It is a time for intercession and lament. May the Lord have mercy on us all.” (Lisa Loden co-chairs the Lausanne Initiative for Reconciliation in Israel/Palestine)
