America and Israel Pull Out of Hamas Negotiations
Both Israel and the United States have withdrawn their negotiators from Qatar, signaling an end to ceasefire talks with Hamas.
Get involved in state-level prayer with IFA.
From Fox News:
The United States has withdrawn its delegation from Doha, where it was participating in ceasefire negotiations this week, according to United States Special Envoy to the Middle East Steve Witkoff.
The announcement came the same day Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office also announced that its negotiators in Doha would also be leaving in light of the response from Hamas. Witkoff also met with Israeli and Qatari officials in Rome Thursday, according to reports.
“We have decided to bring our team home from Doha for consultations after the latest response from Hamas, which clearly shows a lack of desire to reach a ceasefire in Gaza,” Witkoff said in a statement Thursday.
Witkoff asserted that Hamas “does not appear to be … acting in good faith,” adding that the U.S. would now “consider alternative options” to rescue hostages and bring an end to the conflict.
While this is big news, it isn’t necessarily surprising. We’ve seen Hamas back out of and break ceasefire agreements time and time again since October 7. This incident is only the latest example.
According to Fox, the breakdown occurred when Hamas demanded the “release of 200 Palestinians serving life sentences for murdering Israelis and an additional 2,000 Palestinians detained in Gaza after Oct. 7.” That demand significantly exceeded what was laid out in the Israeli-accepted framework, which included the release of only “125 life-term prisoners and 1,200 other detainees.”
In some ways, this breakdown is an answer to our prayers. We prayed for Steve Witkoff specifically to make Israel his priority, and this decision shows his and America’s commitment to God’s nation. On the other hand, the breakdown of negotiations is yet another roadblock on the path to peace.
Let’s continue to pray for the Middle East. Let’s pray that America would remain a strong ally to Israel, and that God’s nation would be victorious in its battle against terror!

Thank the Lord that the peace negotiations that may involve President Trump has broken down. There will be no lasting peace in Israel until the Prince of Peace rules and reigns for 1000 years during the millennium. Any pseudo fake or temporary peace will be negotiated by the Antichrist.
“Lay not wait, O wicked man, against the dwelling of the righteous; spoil not his resting place:
For a just man falleth seven times, and riseth up again: but the wicked shall fall into mischief.
Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stumbleth:
Lest The Lord see it, and it displease Him, and He turn away His wrath from him.
Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked:
For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
My son, fear thou The Lord and the king: and meddle not with them that are given to change:
For their calamity shall rise suddenly; and who knoweth the ruin of them both?”
Proverbs 24
Am Israel Hai!
Joel 3:1 “For behold, in those [climactic] days and at that time, When I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,
:2 I will gather together all the [Gentile] nations [that were hostile to My people]
And bring them down into the Valley of Jehoshaphat (the Lord has judged).
And there I will deal with them and enter into judgment with them there
For [their treatment of] My people, My inheritance, Israel,
Whom they have scattered among the nations,
And [because] they have encroached on My land and divided it up.
AMEN, ANSWERED PRAYERS
YEAH, NO MURDERERS FOR INNOCENT HOSTAGES
FATHER YeHoVaH bring the hostages home and total VICTORY IN YESHUA’S HOLY NAME AMEN AMEN
I pray in the name of YESHUA. that these people would be wiped out? There’s only one thing to do is get THEM out of GASA. and from that whole area you can’t negotiate with them. They’re a death squad. That’s all they’re about. So how are you gonna have talks with them? It’s ridiculous to think that you could have talked to with them. The only thing we need to do is get in there and get out the survivors, and that’s all you can do. It’s very sad that it’s this way, but that’s the way it is.
This unfortunately is the truth. The only thing the Arabs in Gaza can do to survive is Obey Acts 2:38! Jesus is their only Savior!
You can’t do negotiations with a terrorist group. I am believing God to get the hostages out safely, I pray soon!!
Lord you protect the righteous from the wicked! You also bring the storehouse of wealth back to the righteous!
Keep the bombs falling on Gaza, Syria, Iran, etc. until ALL the hostages are released. Make Gaza a giant ashtray. Never negotiate with hostage takers. Eradicate them. Scorched earth policy.
Praise God. I’ve been praying for that.
praying for the peace in middle east
Heavenly Father, we ask that You would move on behalf of Israel as the Lion of Judah, to protect your Israel and it’s people. May they come running to You for protection and peace. Defeat the enemies in any nation who insist on acting out hatred toward Jewish people. Protect each citizen, each IDF soldier as they seek peace from terrorist organizations, and any support groups. Break the weapon systems of every country seeking to destroy your people. Cause President Trump and all the cabinet, congress, state governments, Christians to pray and actively support Israel and break terrorism strongholds wherever it is found. Protect and give hope to any living hostages . In the name of Jesus Christ, we make our prayers and declarations to You, Amen
Lam 3:52-59 Those who are my enemies for no reason hunted me down like a bird. They forced me alive into a pit and threw stones on me. Water rose above my head; I thought, “I am finished!” I called on your name, YHVH, from the bottom of the pit. You heard my voice; don’t close your ear at my sighs, at my cries. You came near when I called to you; you said, “Don’t be afraid.” YHVH, you defended my cause; you redeemed my life. YHVH, you see how I have been wronged; give judgment in my favor!
YHVH – thank You for continuing to watch over the hostages. Many who’ve been rescued, testify that You did hear their cries, and You came near. Please now bring rescue to the remainder – give judgment in their favor!
Lam 3:60-63 You have seen all their vindictiveness and all their plots against me. You have heard their taunts, YHVH, and all their plots against me, the whispered murmurings of my foes against me all day long. See how, whether they sit or stand, I am the butt of their taunts.
YHVH, You have seen the way Hamas has treated the hostages – these verses provide a mild version of the indictment the hostages and You could write against them, and perhaps You have written against them. So . . .
Lam 3:64-66 Repay them, YHVH, as their deeds deserve. Give them hardheartedness as your curse on them. Pursue them in anger! Destroy them from under your heavens!
Their already hardened hearts, have been hardened further – just as happened to Pharaoh. Destruction is the end result of rebellion against You YHVH, and rightfully so. Now let Your thundering voice go into Gaza, “Let my people go!” Thank You for clarifying who in this conflict does not desire peace – at least to anyone who is reasonable and recognizes truth. Continue to fulfill Your covenant promises to Your people, Israel.
Lord, I pray you with supernatural. Intervene negotiations or as your word says Israel is the apple of your eye and all who come against her, will fail.
thank you Lord that we are called to stand with Israel as her ally.
In Jesus name, Amen
You can NOT make a deal with the devil. When will they ever learn ??? Almighty God promised the land – all of it – to the nation that followed Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. JACOB, not Ishmael. Hamas does not want peace with Israel, only it’s destruction. The devil only comes to steal, kill and destroy. Genesis 12: 2 & 3.
I was in communications at sea during the six day war. It was a proxy war between us and Russian backing with the belligerents including Egypt. The Lord intervened as we were approached at night by a Russian guided missal frigate. It pointed its missals at me as I was on deck at zero hundred hours. The frigate suddenly turned hard to starboard and disappeared in the night. Our sister ship, the Liberty did not fare so well. Thank you Lord. I pray a similar resolution to this ongoing horror of hatred in the middle east.
Thank you for your service, Jack.
Praying with you in agreement in Jesus’ Mighty Name, amen!

Father, God, I thank you for America to stand behind Israel and that she would have victory over Hamas over her enemies. I pray for our leaders, to stand behind Israel in whatever decision Israel, makes to get the victims out and safe home. In Jesus name
May God pour down blessings on the United States of America and may God richly bless the nation of Israel. May all Israelis receive Jesus Christ as the Messiah and the deliverer of all who trust in Him.
Father God,
We pray for Your hand of safety and protection to continue to rest upon the Nation of Israel—for the Nations of the World to hear the truth regarding the true intentions of the Palestinian Authority, as well as the Gaza-based terrorist group, Hamas, as directed against the Nation of Israel—that the Nations would begin to rise up in honor, respect and support of the undivided Nation of Israel and her undivided capital city—Jerusalem…
In Yeshua’s Name—Amen
