A Jewish Temple Mount group known as Revava, is planning in one week, Monday, Aug. 14th, to hold a "massive prayer assembly for the rebuilding of our holy Temple on its historic site." The group may very well meet with much opposition however, as a Palestinian leader with alleged ties to Hamas is urging Arabs to surround the holy site next weekend to "protect it from Israeli protesters."

Chairman of the Israeli group Revava, David Ha'ivri told World Net Daily, "The Muslims must understand that their rule over our holy place has come to an end and that the Jewish people will exercise our religious rights on the Temple Mount. We expect thousands of Jews to take part."

Revava held a rally at the Western Wall this past April, but no one was allowed to ascend the Mount.

Editor's Note: As headlines increasingly seem to point to fulfillment of biblical prophecies, it becomes more and more important to be praying for Israel. As we do, we also pray for the "shalom" of Jerusalem and that each heart, both Jew and Arab, would be illuminated by The Messiah. - Aimee Herd, Breaking Christian News.
