Global Phenomenon: Christians Unite across 200 Countries to Pray for Peace of Jerusalem

Raphael Poch : Oct 20, 2014  Breaking Israel News

"It is truly difficult to grasp the width and the breadth of this global, grassroots prayer movement until you begin to read the multitude of reports that have come in from churches—both large and small—from all corners of the earth." -Robert Stearns, Eagles Wings

(Israel)—A recent phenomenon swept the globe, which while still relatively unheard of, is gathering steam at an overwhelming pace. It involved a prayer initiative which was undertaken by individuals, communities, and churches all around the world praying on the same day, October 5th, for the peace of Jerusalem.

Prayer gatherings were held across the globe in over 200 countries as part of the Peace and Safety of Jerusalem and Israel initiative.
Robert Stearns, a chief officer at Eagles Wings, the organizer of the International Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem (DPPJ), explained the importance of continually praying for Israel.

"As impossible as it is to imagine, two hundred nations united on one day... to pray with one heart and one mind for one thing—The Peace of Jerusalem and Her People!" he said. "It is truly difficult to grasp the width and the breadth of this global, grassroots prayer movement until you begin to read the multitude of reports that have come in from churches—both large and small—from all corners of the earth."

According to Eagles Wings, the goal of the DPPJ was "to raise global awareness, and intercession for God's purpose in Israel, and to unite believers around the world in raising a cry to Heaven on behalf of this troubled but strategic land and its people."

One of the most befuddling things in modern history is how much positive attention, interest and time nations of the world spend focusing upon Israel. Why should people half a world away pray for Israel? Is it simply because of a Biblical commandment or is there something more, some force that is causing people from countries as distant as the Philippines and Zambia, who have never set foot on Israeli soil, to pray for the peace of Jerusalem?
