This is the week that the Palestinians are set to petition the U.N. for statehood. The repercussions of this could bring violence to Israel in the form of Palestinian protests within days, not to mention more attacks on Israeli embassies like what happened Egypt.
There will be plenty of news stories this week regarding what's happening, and as the week goes on I'll try to link and comment on some.
With this Friday's petition looming, we as Christians need to pray for the following things:
1. The peace of Jerusalem
2. Wisdom for our leaders to stand beside Israel
3. Wisdom for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
4. Safety in Israel with the potential for violent protests.
