## Resource

At the moment Gentiles are saved, they enter into a story far beyond themselves—God’s story with the Jewish people. Their salvation signals the fulfillment of God’s covenant promise with Israel. Thanks to the Spirit’s indwelling work, we foster compassion for Jerusalem and the Jewish people, and we pray for the city’s peace, which, ultimately, will facilitate the peace of the entire world. Praying for Israel and the Jewish people aligns our hearts with the Lord’s and draws us closer to Him in obedience to His Word. So, let’s commit to praying for Israel regularly from now on!
