Day of Prayer Impacts the World From Jerusalem

Shalom and greetings again from Jerusalem, the City of the King.

We just had another Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem. Worldwide in churches all over, on the first Sunday of every October. Of course, we also held the meeting in Jerusalem.

I was there for this prayer meeting – it was powerful, as every year!

This Day of Prayer was part of the Feast of Tabernacles celebration where I am all this week, in Jerusalem. Over 8,000 Christians are gathered from the nations for this conference. 1,000 came from Brazil!

Live from Israel,

Day of Prayer in Jerusalem – Oct 4 2009

Buffalo, NY: Oct. 5, 2009

Christians Worldwide Gather in Homes, Churches, and Cities to Unite in Prayer for Jerusalem!

Millions of Christians marked the 8th annual Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem (DPPJ) (www.daytopray.com) on Sunday, October 4th with concerted, worldwide worship and prayer.

From soaring cathedrals to simple grass huts, hundreds of thousands of churches, involving millions of Christians in well over 175 nations, prayed for Jerusalem’s peace on Sunday, October 4th. According to the New York office of Eagles’ Wings Ministries, the prayer initiative’s sponsor, these numbers include the participation of underground Christian churches in seven primarily Muslim countries and in China.

Dr. Robert Stearns, founder of Eagles’ Wings and co-chairman of the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem, led a Jerusalem Celebration of the DPPJ at the International Convention Center in Jerusalem that was attended by leaders of the Christian, Jewish, and Arab communities, and which was broadcast globally on GOD TV live to 192 nations. The main auditorium was filled with approximately 2,000 believers from Asia, Africa, Latin America, North America, Canada, and Europe.

“It is a new day in the Christian Church,” said Stearns. “There are millions of Christians declaring that they will pray for the peace of Jerusalem. We are not spectators, we are not bystanders, and we will not be silent… The sin of silence (during the Holocaust) will not be repeated… Shalom to Israel is Shalom for the world!” Dr. Stearns received a standing ovation and shouts of support by the audience at these comments.

Representing the government of Israel, Uzi Landau, Minister of Infrastructure, addressed the Christians gathered in Jerusalem and watching around the world: “Thank you for the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem, it is important…we need more Watchmen on the Walls of Zion.”

Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, chief Rabbi of Efrat also spoke, saying, “Why do I believe God is with us? I have witnessed a new Christianity – one that observes the Covenant between God and Israel – between God and the Jewish people. It is a Christianity that proudly says to us that ‘you are the root and we are the branch’… You stand with us, and for this we are eternally grateful.”

In addition to global prayer rallies and church services, the Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem inspired more than 1,000 callers to access a 24-hour Day of Prayer international conference call that united Christians from 10 nations and 36 U.S. states in a virtual prayer room. For 24 hours, believers from nations including Canada, Italy, Germany, France, Netherlands, Malawi, Kenya, Nigeria, Australia, and the U.S. called in, praying in multiple languages for supernatural peace to canopy Jerusalem and all her people, both young and old, Jew and Arab.

The Day of Prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem occurs the first Sunday in October every year, connecting the Christian and Hebrew calendars. The initiative involves tens of millions of people and is endorsed by more than 1,200 prominent Christian leaders worldwide, including Jack Hayford, Paul Cedar, Ron Luce, Kay Arthur, John Hagee, Jane Hansen Hoyt, K.P. Yohannan, T.D. Jakes, Ravi Zacharias, Mosy Madugba, Kenneth Copeland, Thomas Wang, Sunday Adelaja, and many more.

Coming soon… Many more reports from around the world from the DPPJ, including a 2009 Jerusalem Celebration Highlight Video! To view the latest updates, click here to visit www.daytopray.com.
