God is awakening the church to the mandate He has given in His Word to pray for the nation of Israel at a time such as this! This calling is not to a remnant any longer but to all of God's children who call upon the Name of the Lordi (Isaiah62:6&7} Like John the Baptist -who prepared the way for the Lords' first coming through his ministry and proclamations, so we as the Body of Christ through our fervent and passionate intercession for Israel and the nations are preparing the way for our Lord's second coming! As Aaron and Hur raised the arms of Moses to strengthen him which in turn led them to victory and defeating the enemy at the time, so the church is being called upon to raise up the nation of Israel in prayer to comfort, encourage and strengthen them (Isaiah 40:1-2) against the intensified attacks of the enemy in these last days.
