Hello, this is Rick Ridings from Succat Hallel. We’re coming today with an urgent prayer need. This coming Saturday at noon President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu have set a deadline that either Hamas restores all the hostages or, in the words of President Trump, all hell will break loose.
We don’t know exactly what that means obviously, but it’s a very strong message for Hamas to release the hostages and also indicates that Hamas would be uprooted, which we’ve been praying as you remember for many many months here.
Those of you who follow this have been praying that Hamas would not just be pruned this time as in the past but that they would be uprooted. And under the hostage agreement as it stood, it looked more like a pruning which would allow Hamas to come back again.
But we believe God wants to miraculously release a lot, if not all of the hostages soon, and at the same time, work in such a way that Hamas would really be fully uprooted.
And the people of Gaza would be freed from this oppressive evil demonic terrorist group that has brought so much death and devastation to the people of Gaza and to the people of Israel.
So there’s some key scriptures to Proclaim during these days, and I’ll just pray and proclaim those right now. Then I encourage you to pray and proclaim them in your own times with the Lord.
Jeremiah 12: God Uproots and Gives Compassion
First of all, in Jeremiah 12:14 and 16, we declare this is what the Lord says, as for all my wicked neighbors who seize the inheritance I gave my people Israel, I will uproot them from their lands and I will uproot the people of Judah from among them.
But after I uproot them, I will again have compassion and will bring each of them back to their own inheritance and their own country.
And if they learn the ways of my people and swear by my name saying that surely the Lord is the true and living God of the Bible, even as they once taught my people to swear by Baal by Baal, then they will be established among my people.
But, He says, if they do not swear by His name and learn to trust in His name and instead swear by the names of false gods, then He says I will fully uproot them.
What to Pray for in the Middle East
So, Lord, we pray you give mercy and grace and revelation to the many who have been deceived by radical Islam into trying to seize what you have given to Israel and who swear by the name of another God other than the true and the Living God.
You who created the heavens and the Earth, we pray that there would be revelation, dreams, visions, visitations, that even many terrorists would come to a knowledge of the truth and would swear by the true and the Living God, not the moon god, but the true and Living God.
We pray they would realize what is their inheritance and what is the inheritance of the people of Israel.
Gaza
And then over Gaza we pray specifically Zechariah 9 again: that Gaza will rise in agony but Gaza will lose her king. We agree together that Gaza will lose this evil demonic spiritual king ultimately who has been the king of over Gaza.
We believe you will do what you said: “I will put an end to the pride of the Philistines”, and Hamas models itself after the Philistines. “I will take the blood from their mouths the forbidden food from between their teeth…”
Oh God rise up and take the blood from the mouths of Hamas the forbidden food from between their teeth. Then you say those who are left will belong to our God and become as a clan in Judah, so we believe you Lord that those who are left will come back to a rebuilt Gaza, will belong to you, and many will come to know you.
You know the hearts and those whose hearts are looking for truth. We believe you, Lord, that they will belong to you and that they will become a clan in Judah, a clan of praise to the true and the Living God.
They will be like the Jebusites who were not Jews but stood with King David for the establishment of His kingdom. We believe you Lord that there will be those that will belong to you.
They will become like a clan in Judah that will become like the Jebusites to support the rule of the son of David, Yeshua, Jesus, the son of David.
Iran
Then over in Iran as there’s the strong possibility that something will be done very seriously soon concerning their nuclear program. They’re actually within days of having a nuclear weapon and Lord you know what needs to be done.
If it could be done without a war with some kind of a real surrender we would prefer that, but if not we trust you, Lord, and ultimately we know that your words here are directed at the evil rulers, the evil regime in Iran, the Iranian people.
So many huge numbers know you now, huge numbers that love Israel and huge numbers here in Israel love them. We want to see them free from the oppression of this evil regime that has so oppressed them.
So we proclaim over the evil regime in Iran who in the Bible is the ancient uh Persian governmental seat. Elam, the city of Shushan, where Queen Esther was and where Hamon was defeated and where the evil Amalekites were defeated.
So we Proclaim over those who are operating in that Amalekite spirit in the Hamon spirit, in the evil regime of Iran, now what God spoke over Elam this province of Iran of Persia.
In Jeremiah 49: 35-39 this is what the Lord Almighty says: see I will break the bow of Elam the mainstay of their might.
So we believe you Lord to arise and break the military and any kind of nuclear power of the evil regime in Iran. Oh Lord break their bow, the mainstay of their might.
I will bring against Elam the Four Winds from the four quarters of Heaven. I will scatter them to the Four Winds. There will not be a nation where Elam’s exiles go. I will shatter Elam.
Lord those who are in this Spirit of ancient Elam the spirit of Hamon before their foes before those who want to kill them I will bring disaster on them, even my Fierce anger declares the Lord.
So we pray, Lord, they will either repent and turn to you or be removed from their place of evil oppression over the Middle East and over Israel and over the Nations.
Then you said I will pursue them with the sword until I have made an end of them. Again, those who do not repent in the evil leadership in Iran make an end of them, but we also thank you for your glorious promise Lord I will set my throne in Elam.
So set your throne there, destroy her King and officials. Again your contention is with the evil rulers but then you give another glorious promise. I will restore the fortunes of Elam in days to come.
So Lord we pray for the uprooting of that which would stand against you, everything you have not planted.
Uproot All That the Father Has Not Planted
As Yeshua said, every plant my father has not planted shall be uprooted. So, again, we agree together in these days, Lord, in these weeks, in this strategic time in history for a full uprooting of the evil roots of the Demonic powers and people that are serving those powers in the Iranian regime, in the Hamas regime, in the Hezbollah regime, in the Houthi regime.
And we add to that those in Syria now that are still under the influence of the spirits behind Isis and Al-Qaeda.
We believe you Lord for your uprooting of that which was not planted by you and that this region will know a freedom that it has not known for a very very long time as these radical Islamic terrorist groups are uprooted and doors begin to open for the kingdom of God and the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Let your peace, your Shalom, your righteousness come into this region powerfully. In the name of Yeshua we pray amen.
Thank you for agreeing with us in prayer in this strategic time.
