Weekly Prayer Strategy — Jul 19, 2025

Saturday, July 19, 2025

Chris joined Patricia Bootsma on Faytene Grasseschi’s television program. In this powerful conversation, they share their perspectives on the unfolding situation in the Middle East, including the significance of Israel, the threat posed by Iran, and the troubling rise of antisemitism both globally and within Canada. They also highlight a biblical foundation for standing with Israel, referencing God's promise in Genesis 12:3: “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse.” Their insights offer a timely and faith-filled response, urging believers to pray, speak up, and align their hearts with God’s covenant purposes for Israel and the Jewish people.

"Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life."

Ezekiel 37:4-5
