pray for the peace of Jerusalem

Fresh Manna
by Pastor Tim Burt

In addition to my Pastoral roles at my church, I am also the Minnesota State Director for Christians United for Israel (CUFI). CUFI was birthed in 2006 by Pastor John Hagee and has grown to 1.9 million Christians who support and love Israel. God has drawn His people back to the land he gave them, and they were reestablished as a nation in 1948. This has been one of the great ongoing works God has been doing in the earth over the past half-century. Israel and the Jewish people are a tiny nation 1/19 the size of California and surrounded by 22 Arab nations that are 640 times larger than tiny Israel.

Israel is the only Democratic nation in the Middle East and the United States greatest ally. Israel allows Muslims and Palestinians to live as citizens of Israel – even participating in their government and have more rights than in any other Arab nation. The restrictions any Palestinians face in Israel are only a matter of Israel protecting its people from suicide bombing, efforts of terrorism against Israel, and the smuggling of weapons into Israel to hurt and undermine the nation of Israel. There have been over 11,000 rockets fired from Gaza at Israeli citizens since 2005.

Would you like to take a simple step in supporting Israel that takes approximately 10 seconds of your time? All you need to do is click on this link to CUFI and join by simply putting in your email address and click JOIN. At the very least, please go to CUFI.com and learn more about Christians United for Israel.

I hope you will watch this short video called “I Am Israel.” It is about six minutes long and critical for Christians to watch to understand the truth of Israel’s experience. Please pray for the peace of Israel and the peace of Jerusalem and all her people.

Isaiah 62:1 (NLT) “Because I love Zion, I will not keep still. Because my heart yearns for Jerusalem, I cannot remain silent. I will not stop praying for her until her righteousness shines like the dawn, and her salvation blazes like a burning torch.”

In His Love,
Pastor Tim Burt
