Yesterday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved a full military occupation of Gaza in order to free the remaining hostages.

From The New York Post:
The expansion of the war would see the military, which already controls about 75% of Gaza, take over the remaining areas and conduct operations where the hostages are believed to be held, the Jerusalem Post reported.
…
Senior Israeli officials who discussed the occupation plan with Netanyahu believe that Hamas will not free the remaining 50 hostages without being forced to surrender, local Channel 12 reported.
That view has put pressure on Netanyahu and his cabinet following the recent release of Hamas propaganda videos showing emaciated hostages suffering and begging for food and water inside the terror group’s tunnels.
Previously, the IDF had assessed that full occupation was not the answer, as it could cause harm to the remaining hostages, 20 of whom, the post notes, are still believed to be alive. Israel has also faced worldwide backlash over the conditions in Gaza, and many have accused the Jewish state of starving the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip.
As he faces backlash, however, Netanyahu has decided that he and the IDF need to act fast. The living hostages in Gaza had been held by terrorists for nearly 2 years now. IDF soldiers will need to be swift to rescue them. They’ll also need to be cunning and stealthy, as Hamas has reportedly ordered its members to kill the hostages if Israeli soldiers are drawing near.
The question is whether America will support Israel in this new, more intense stage of the war. Luckily, those prayers may have been answered already over the weekend. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson prayed in front of the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem for “America [to] always stand with Israel.”
From The Daily Wire:
“We are grateful for the privilege of being here in Israel today, particularly on this day,” Johnson said, alluding to how it was Tisha B’Av, the annual day in the Jewish calendar of mourning that marks the destruction of the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem.
“It is a moving time for us to be here at the Wailing Wall. We’ve offered our prayers. We put our notes into the wall as is traditional. And we’re so moved by the hospitality of the people and the great love of Israel,” Johnson added. “Our prayer is that America will always stand with Israel and we pray for the preservation and peace of Jerusalem. That’s what scripture tells us to do, it’s a matter of faith for us, and a commitment that we have.”
At a time when many are turning on Israel, it would seem that our leaders are allied with God’s chosen nation. Let’s thank God for this, and let’s pray that the IDF would be successful in its mission to free the hostages and defeat Hamas!

Our Heavenly Father. It has almost been 2 years this October 7th since
the deadly massacre between Hamas and Israel. Hamas is a demonic
and sick group of men who have no regard for life and only want to do
harm to their victims or kill them in torturous ways. There are still hostages
in Gaza that need to be rescued once and for all and Hamas needs to be
taken out and put somewhere else.
Speaker Johnson was praying for Israel at the Wailing Wall and I know that
God is hearing his prayers as a representation of America. We will always stand
for Israel and Bless Israel. Thank you that he is such a Godly man and truly cares
for Israel’s future.
Please guide the IDF soldiers as they undertake the huge decision to go into Gaza
and release the hostages and go after Hamas. The people of Gaza have been through
so much death and now starvation is showing it’s ugly head, especially in children.
Please let Benjamin Netanyahu get divine wisdom from God as to what to do and
how to do it. It has to be a very strategic plan that will work. Please protect all the
hostages that he wants to free so that there is no harm that will come to them. This
is a Spiritual War of Good vs. Evil. Our God is mighty and can win this War. Please
keep the people of Gaza safe and all the Hostages. Let the Angels do their work!!
In Jesus name,
Amen and Amen…
Faith in God is not an “on and off” thing; neither is support for Israel!
We are not responsible for being the judges of others, as if each turn
or twist of events brings us to the option of abandoning faith because of
the evil of others.
I am certainly no expert in foreign affairs, but it is interesting to me what
Hamas said about Israel’s plans for full military occupation of Gaza:
“Repetitive
Worthless and
Without influence on our decisions.”
It has the same rhythm as: “I will exalt my throne above the stars of God.”
I feel that we might use these words in beseeching the Lord for victory over Hamas,
by studying Scriptures that will defeat them and the prideful attitude behind them;
knowing that God hates pride and stands far off from prideful people.
My constant prayer is: “Lord, Glorify Your Name In All The Earth!”
He says in Isaiah 61 (Amplified) that He will bring forth Rightness and Justice and Praise
before all the nations by the self-fulfilling power of His Word!
Let’s tell Him that we approve of His ways and give Him thanks and praise!!!
In Jesus Mighty Name. Amen.
Yes, and amen!!
Fear not. for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10 A beautiful verse that has been a memory verse and a song. Praying for Israel today.
This is what they should have done it the first place. These are animals who do not value life. Why would anyone want their loved one to suffer at the hands of these uncaring men. Is it any worse to be killed and go to be with the Lord than to suffer as these men have??????
May God be with the IDF and clean out this infestation and rescue the hostages. Amen
I agree, Patti – but that is why I have pleaded that YHVH reveal Himself to the hostages through His Son, Yeshua since they were taken. Many have testified that they were aware of God’s presence while in captivity. May all come to receive Israel’s Messiah, so they are prepared to die, whenever and however it happens.
Jesus, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, we dispatch you and your heavenly armies to help Israel bring home the hostages and free the innocents in Gaza. We ask for an end to this war and horror, and for Israel’s boundaries to be expanded. Hallelujah!
Heavenly Father God, may we as a nation, stand with Israel, because of the covenant you made with Abraham. Lord we do pray that you will expose all the fraudsters, that have hijacked much of the true Israel, for financial gain. Protect all of YOUR people, in Gaza, in Jerusalem, Israel and Palestine, on both sides of all this and expose AlL the evil that is lurking on both sides. In your most glorious name I pray. May Your perfect will be done in all things. Amen
Father, I pray for wisdom for Netanyahu as they plan this next move. I pray they would be able to rescue the remaining hostages who are starving. Open doors for Israel in their rescue of these hostages. May Hamas give up and not fight.
If we support Israel. We cannot support the Israel settlers for their shooting the poor, peaceful (many Christian) Palestinian people in the West Bank and Gaza who are suffering and are just trying to live peaceful lives. .
May we as a nation be faithful to Israel. and obedient to Gods heart .We show our love to the Father by our obedience to Im.
YHVH, You are a covenant-keeping God, perfect in all Your ways, plans and purposes. You will fulfill every covenant promise to Your people Israel! You will restore their covenant Land to them. We continue to cry out for the hostages, who have suffered so much. Please intervene on their behalf, and set them free. Lion of the Tribe of Judah – ROAR! Roar over Your people, and breathe life and renewed strength into them! Roar over Your enemies, draining their strength by the sheer terror of recognizing the One they are fighting against. May the ground shake at Your mighty presence, as You go through Gaza. Grant victory, God of angel armies – YHVH Tzva’ot!
Lord, I pray You will give Prime Minister Netanyahu and his advisors wisdom, understanding and insight as they seek to rescue the October 7th hostages that are still being held by Hamas and drive the terrorists out of the Gaza strip. I pray for those nations the seek to divide Israel will reconsider their plan of recognizing a Palestinian state. Israel is God’s land, on loan to the Israeli people. God has judged and will continue to judge any nation that seeks to divide Isreal under the guise of “Land for Peace.” The promises of peace in exchange for a portion of Israel has NEVER worked and those nations that come against Israel will suffer the consequences. In Genesis 15:18 it is recorded: “On that day the Lord made a covenant with Abram saying, “To your descendants I have given this land, from the river of Egypt as far as the great river, the river Euphrates…”” With the rebirth of the nation fo Israel in 1948, God began to fulfill his promise by reclaiming the land for the descendants of Abraham. No nation has the authority over the land God has granted to the Jewish people. Lord, I pray for your intervention to cause nations considering taking land in Israel for a Palestinian state to rethink their intentions and consider the consequences.
It is good that the US is supporting Israel. With or without the support of the US as long as Israel is following God’s will they will not fail no matter what the rest of the world thinks. I trust in God’s will.
🙏😇🙏
The only thing that Hamas is going to understand is total annhilation, It is an impossible task to attempt to negotiate with terrorists, They see it as a sign of weakness. Lord Jesus, I pray that You will give the Israeli government the guidance and wisdom that they need in this difficult situation that they find themselves in. May Your will prevail. Thank You Jesus.
Thank you Lord for raising up Speaker Johnson and we come into agreement with his words that America will “always support Israel.” Amen. I also pray for People throughout the World to get a true Historical perspective of Islam. It has a 1400 year History of murder, torture, kidnapping, beheading, rape, pedophilia(both male and female), slavery, theft, looting, lies, deception, and jezebelish Polical intimidation. Wealthy Muslim Nations also use their money to bribe and corrupt in order to manipulate.. Hamas is not fighting for a Palestinian State but for a Worldwide Caliphate and to overthrow Jerusalem. (This is not to slander many good and honorable Arabs who have been born in Islamic Lands but don’t follow the Quaran.) The spirit behind Islam, which I believe is Baal, is utterly hostile to Israel and the West and will never change. It is high time Christians take a stand like the valiant Knights of Saint John who defending the West in the sieges of Rhodes and Malta in days of old. We must not bow our knees to Satan even unto death🔥🇺🇸🇮🇱
Amen And Amen! I have praying for true warriors of Faith to rise up and fight the good fight for the Name sake of our Lord Jesus, who is worthy of it all!
Also, and just as important, I have been praying for the scales to come off eyes to see things as they truly are and wax out of peoples ears to hear truth that will awaken their hearts to salvation in Jesus Christ.
God bless you Bonnie❤️
Lord thank you for the bravery being shown by Netanyahu he has done everything he could possibly do to bring home the hostages -please be with him now as he does this very dangerous assignment and bring home the hostages safely – Hamas thought they had the upper hand because of all the lies they have been reporting and the Lie Media has run with the propaganda – no more time to end this – so many things should have been done differently but here we are – that’s Israel’s land anyway – God gave it to the Jewish People now time to take it back – please keep President Trump on the side of Israel – I will bless those who bless you – thank you Lord Jesus.
Dearest Heavenly Father: We continue to pray YOUR WILL over Israel, America, and this entire world. Knowing that you as Almighty Creator have a plan, are FAITHFUL and will be VICTORIOUS. I pray America and others will realize that your word is absolutely true and that you have promised to protect Israel and bless those who bless them. America has made a lot of mistakes in theses years but I sincerely hope we have learned our lessons. That we as a nation will return to our knees, humble ourselves before you and repent. That we will pray YOUR WILL for ourselves and ISRAEL and not be a stumbling block to your People. We pray this prayer In the Mighty Name of Jesus giving you all Glory, Honor, Power, and Praise for you alone are Worthy to be PRAISED.
Lord, forbid that President Trump would force Israel into another ceasefire as he did with both Hizbullah in Lebanon and with Iran.
This time Almighty King, command victories for Jacob (Psa. 44:4).
Messiah Yeshua, I also pray for You to abundantly bless our precious brothers and sisters in America who fully stand with Your nation (Psa. 134:3).
[PS Trump, a great friend of Israel, needs someone to clue him in to how Muslims view things.
For them a ceasefire – or hudna – is just a break from active battle in order to attack its enemy again when it is stronger.
Ceasefire with Islamic entities or nations is very dangerous to Israel and ultimately to the West.]
