On March 23rd, Israelis will go to the polls for the 4th time in two years. For our nation this is unprecedented. While elections in the past have been about security, the economy, or right vs. left, this one is an election based on pro and anti-Netanyahu factions as it deals with a number of issues created by His style of leadership and coalitions that have included far-right ultra-orthodox populations.

Today, Israeli believers from across the nation and different ministry platforms are gathering together online for a Pre-Passover Nationwide Day of Prayer, Fasting, and Worship for the Israeli Election and Government.
Please join us in prayer for our nation that has also been quite severely affected economically by the Corona Virus
Kerry and Sandra Teplinsky put together a very good list of prayer requests for this election and Passover season.
| 1. | Repentance. We humble ourselves, turn from our sin, and repent on behalf of God’s covenant people Israel. (2 Chronicles 7:13-14) |
| 2. | Election Process. We pray for righteousness and justice in the election and voting process, with any corruption exposed and justly dealt with. (Proverbs 14:34) |
| 3. | Voters. May a spirit of grace and supplication convict Israelis to vote for parties whose leaders fear the Lord or stand for righteousness or both. (Zechariah 12:10, Psalm 111:10) |
| 4. | God’s Choice Leaders. May God give us a coalition government and prime minister through which He can best achieve His purposes for Israel at this time of our restoration. (Psalm 75:6-7, Proverbs 21:1, Daniel 2:21, Proverbs 16:33) |
| 5. | Salvation. Let there be a coalition government conducive to the spread of the Gospel, salvation in Yeshua, and aliyah for all Jews, including Messianic Jews. (Psalm 24:7-10, 1 Timothy 2:1-4) |
| 6. | Restore Truth. Let a government be established that exposes and disdains corruption and deception in governance while upholding truth and righteousness. (Proverbs 14:34, Proverbs 16:12) |
| 7. | Security. Lord, we ask for a very strong government, yet trusts in You, in matters of national defense and security. (Psalms 121 and 91, Zechariah 2:5) |
| 8. | Globalism. Give us, O God, a government that resists premature surrender to anti-Messiah or globalist agendas, and instead embraces its call not to be like other nations. Free Israel from any anti-Messiah restrictions on personal freedoms or institutional strongholds based on anti-Messiah foundations of the modern state. (Ezekiel 20:32, Deuteronomy 28:13) |
| 9. | Pandemic. We pray for a government that seeks godly wisdom in establishing pandemic and post-pandemic policies, and in transitioning to a post-pandemic economy. (Proverbs 24:3-4) |
| 10. | Sanctity of Life. We pray for a government that honors the sanctity of life and understands that abortion is murder. (Exodus 20:13) |
| 11. | Servant Leadership. Raise shepherd-leaders to govern Your people with father and mother hearts of love for Israel. Give them an anointing to heal and unify the people. (Matthew 23:11, Jeremiah 3:15) |
| 12. | Religious Strongholds. Let any ultraorthodox Jewish, and other religious strongholds, that oppose faith in Yeshua be broken. (Luke 11:46) |
| 13. | Witchcraft. Let no witchcraft or weapon formed against Israel succeed. May all covenants we have made with death be annulled by the blood of Yeshua. (Numbers 23:23, Isaiah 54:17, Psalm 9:15, Psalm 57:2-6, Isaiah 28:14-19) |
| 14. | Jerusalem. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem, the city of the Great King, in every natural and supernatural realm. (Psalm 122) |
