Acts 1:8: "But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

For ten days, they consecrated themselves and continued with one accord, praying and waiting for the promised gift of the Holy Spirit. Finally, on the Day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit was poured out upon those who were gathered in the upper room, resulting in 3,000 new Jesus followers.

Over the centuries the Church has, in commemoration, kept the ten days before Pentecost in like manner. This year, 2024, we want to encourage you to join us for 10 days of Prayer—praying for 10 key cities on the Isaiah 19 highway from Cairo to Jerusalem. We are praying for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the people of these cities.

The Biblical promise is found in Isaiah 19:23 (ESV), "In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria, and Assyria will come into Egypt, and Egypt into Assyria, and the Egyptians will worship with the Assyrians. On that day Israel will be the third with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing in the midst of the earth, whom the LORD of hosts has blessed, saying, 'Blessed be Egypt my people, and Assyria the work of my hands, and Israel my heritage.'"

Each of these 10 cities (one per day) are on this highway from Cairo, through modern day Assyria, and back to Jerusalem. [Starting on May 10th], we will culminate these 10 days together with millions of Believers who have agreed to pray on Pentecost Sunday, May 19, crying out in prayer for the salvation of Israel and unbelieving Jews around the world.

According to Romans 9-11, God's plan is that Israel (the Jewish people) will be provoked to godly jealousy to experience God's love and power that they witness in the lives of Gentile Believers walking in the fullness of the Spirit (Rom. 11:11). Israel's salvation is connected to the fullness of the Gentiles in the end times (Rom. 11:25). The fullness of the Gentiles (v. 25) will lead to the salvation of Israel (v. 26), which will result in God's glory filling the earth as the waters cover the sea (Hab. 2:14).

Each day we have provided simple, Bible-based prayer points for these 10 cities. You can gather in your homes, house churches, or prayer rooms to pray together during these 10 days. Let's ask God to do immeasurably more than all we could ever ask or even imagine, for His glory, our joy, and the salvation of multitudes across the Middle East!
