Ronny’s love inspires me and moves me to pray for peace in Israel, Iran, the Middle East, and the whole world. Paul exhorts us to pray for all men. Will you pray with me according to the instructions of Paul in this passage?
“I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men… [Lord, we pray especially for Israel, Iran and the Middle East right now in light of the nuclear threat that Iran is imposing on Israel] for kings, and for all that are in authority; [especially the leaders of Iran and any others who desire Israel’s destruction] that we [especially Israel and Iran in this crucial time in world history] may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
“Lord, you said ‘Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.’ We pray for Ronny in this video and all the peacemakers in Iran and the Middle East that their efforts will succeed. We pray that the message of this video will penetrate into all of Iran and reach Muslims throughout the Middle East that they will all see that the people of Israel are not their enemies but their brothers and sisters as children of God. What would you have us do Lord? Help us to be faithful in prayer. Thank you Lord.”
If you wonder sometimes if your prayers really matter, consider this meditation:
