Happy Rosh Hashanah! Pray for the Peace of Israel

On Wednesday 17 September, Fiji became the one-hundredth Diplomatic Mission in Israel and the seventh country to open its Embassy in Jerusalem, alongside the U.S., Guatemala, Honduras, Kosovo, Papua New Guinea and Paraguay. This further strengthens the very close religious and cultural connection Fiji has with the Holy Land.

While any move or gesture to support Israel draws criticism from her detractors, we Christians have a Biblical mandate to advocate for the peace of Jerusalem.

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May they prosper who love you. Peace be within your walls, prosperity within your palaces.”

Psalm 122:6-7 NKJV

We might not have the political standing or the financial means to endorse Israel, but I think our prayers also help because through them we agree with God’s will and heart for His people.

May this new year bring you prosperity as you pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the salvation of God’s people.

The grace of our Lord and Saviour Yeshua be with you all. Amen.
