Weekly Watch Focus: National Elections—Pray for our Ally, Great Britain

FRIDAY, November 15, 2019— On December 12th, Great Britain will hold General Elections that will determine the next Prime Minister and the United Kingdom's future for generations to come. Great Britain has been a special friend and ally of the U.S. through World War I, World War II, the War on Terror, and beyond. Let us once again lift up in prayer our friend, Great Britain. We want to specifically cover these elections and pray for the defeat of every anti-Semitic candidate and party member. This is a critical time of decision making for our British friends. Pray that God will guide the upcoming elections and give the UK leaders that will have divine wisdom to keep their nation safe and prosperous. May the British remain free to continue to be a true friend of Israel.

Part 2: Pray for Israel

As of today, more than 300 rockets have been fired into Israel from Gaza following an IDF operation that killed Islamic Jihad leader, Baha Abu al-Ata. May the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob protect His people, Israel. May He send forth His heavenly host to protect all Israelis and disrupt the plans of the terrorist Jihadi forces.
