“Israel’s election campaign has been a three-month roller coaster of mudslinging, scandals and more scandals. But when voters head to the polls on Tuesday, one name will be predominantly on their minds: Benjamin Netanyahu.

Download our Special Report on praying for the Israeli election!

At its core, the vote boils down to a referendum on Netanyahu, the man who has dominated Israeli politics for the better part of three decades. A victory will propel him into the record books later this year as the longest-serving Israeli prime minister, surpassing founding father David Ben-Gurion.

A loss would likely end his career just as he is enjoying the limelight at the vanguard of a rising global movement of tough-talking, nationalist world leaders led by his close friend, President Donald Trump. . . .

In the final days of the campaign, the race appears too close to call as Netanyahu faces a strong challenge from Benny Gantz, a popular former army chief. Polls show Netanyahu’s Likud party and Gantz’s new Blue and White party neck and neck. The surveys give Likud a slight advantage in being able to put together a governing coalition with smaller, likeminded parties. . . .

But this campaign is anything but usual. Gantz, with two other former military chiefs on his ticket, is a rare candidate who has the credentials to challenge Netanyahu on security, always a central issue to voters. He has derided Netanyahu’s failure to halt rocket fire from the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip.

Yet Gantz’s main focus has been on Netanyahu himself, taking aim at the raft of corruption allegations against the prime minister. Israel’s attorney general has recommended indicting Netanyahu on bribery and breach of trust charges. Rivals have also begun to question a deal in which Netanyahu reportedly earned $4 million on a German submarine sale to Egypt by owning shares in one of the German manufacturer’s suppliers. . . .

The election campaign has been especially nasty. . . .”

Psalm 33:10,11 “The Lord foils the plans of the nations, he thwarts the purposes of the peoples. But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart to all generations.” Lord, Your plans are greater than we can guess, and so we praise you that YOU are in control of this election and will do as is best for your kingdom. We praise you that you can be trusted and that your good plans stand forever. Amen

Psalm 124 – May Israel say— If it had not been the Lord Who was on our side when men rose up against us, then they would have quickly swallowed us up alive when their wrath was kindled against us. Then the waters would have overwhelmed us and swept us away. Then the proud waters would have gone over us. Blessed be the Lord who has not given us as prey to their teeth! We are like a bird escaped from the snare of the fowlers; the snare is broken, and we have escaped! Our help is in the name of the Lord, Who made heaven and earth. We pray You would remember Your promises and covenants towards Israel this day.

Father, I know You will put into office as prime minister of Israel the person, Who is right for this time in Israel’s history. I pray that whoever it is You will give them the wisdom of Solomon, the courage of Gideon, the strength of Samson and the heart of King David.
I pray for the people of Israel, that they will follow Your leading as to who You want them to vote for and that they will not be swayed by accusations that have been brought against different ones who are running for the position of Prime Minister.
I pray that whoever is elected as prime minister, they will have a close binding relationship with our president. That relations with Israel and America will become even stronger.
Father, I pray that Your kingdom come Your will will be done in Israel as it is in heaven.
Father,I pray that more and more of Your Jewish Children will have their spiritual eyes opened and there will be many who come to know Your Son, Jesus Christ as their personal Savior.

Daniel 2:20-22

…“Blessed be the name of God forever and ever,
for wisdom and power belong to Him.
21He changes the times and seasons;
He removes kings and establishes them.
He gives wisdom to the wise
and knowledge to the discerning.
22He reveals the deep and hidden things;
He knows what lies in darkness,
and light dwells with Him.

I thank you Father that I bear witness of this glorious season that Isrreal is honored as a sovereign nation. I pray You are blessed by the United Ststes support of Israel your holy land. Move upon the hearts of Your people Father to bring about Your will not only in Israel, but on the entire earth.

In Jesus mighty name, Amen🙏👆❤️

Lord, mayYou impress upon voters in Israel the importance of this election and the need to seek You for wisdom, truth, and direction as they vote. We bind deception and the lies and accusations swirling around, in Jesus’ mighty name!
Please, Lord, protect Israel and the voting process this day. Turn the hearts and minds of the people to You at this important time, and bring about Your will through these elections. Thank You, Lord.

Heavenly Father, I pray for the election in Israel today. You see and know all things. Move upon the hearts of the people to vote for the one who will carry out your plans and purposes for Israel. Come against accusations and lies of those bent on maligning the integrity of the innocent. I pray for the peace of Jerusalem and your blessings upon Israel to the return of the Prince of Peace, Yeshua Hamashiach! Your Will be done in Christ’s name I pray. Amen

Prayer from Derek Prince.
We ask that government leaders in Israel would be raised up who will not seek to “divide the land,” and who would recognize the unique significance of Jerusalem in God’s end-time purposes.

    Jon Ellison
    April 9, 2019

    Amen to not dividing the Land. ”For behold, in those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, I will gather all the nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. And I will enter into judgment with them there, on behalf of my people and my heritage Israel, because they have scattered them among the nations and have divided up my land”(Joel 3:1-2).

    “On that day I will make Jerusalem a heavy stone for all the peoples. All who lift it will surely hurt themselves”(Zecharaiah 12:3).

    Father, we know from your Word that the Land of Israel belongs to the People of Israel, and that it will be a fearsome thing for any who divide it. May those who vote in Israel today be aware that anyone who gives away part of the land to Israel’s enemies will surely hurt themselves. And we ask that those who are elected to the Knesset today will oppose any plan, including the one President Trump is expected to unveil on May 15, that would divide the Land.

You Christians that love Israel for GOD’s favor and not for humanitarian reasons; this is Blasphemy!!! Jehovah did not tell you to love Israel for financial wealth. He told you to love them because they are your brothers and sisters under great persecution like millions of “other” ethnic groups. STOP this madness!!! Your not going to win any extra “rewards” from Jehovah because He knows the “intent” of your heart that lies in greed and self-promotion!!!

Father God, Lord of Heaven and earth, my prayer is that Israel might be saved by acknowledging her Messiah Yeshua. Then she will be a Kingdom that cannot be shaken. Isaiah 45:17 but Israel shall be saved in the Lord with everlasting salvation: he shall not be ashamed nor confounded. World without end.Romans 10:1 Brethren, my hearts desire and prayer for Israel is this, that they might be saved.
Jer 23:6 You shall be called THE LORD our RIGHTEOUSNESS.
Father, I stand before You and ask for the gift of repentance for all Your people that we may experience Your abundant mercy and righteous judgment.
Impart Divine insight to the voters that they will choose a government of integrity, wisdom, fear of the Lord. A government that will seek Your counsel in fulfilling their responsibilities. Amen

    Helen I make not this comment for you because I don’t know the “intent” of your heart; so I pass off judgment because your prayer is beautiful. But for those who seek a special place of seat of power in Jehovah’s kingdom along with the unlimited vast resources of wealth…STOP Praying and REPENT of your subtle serpentine wickedness. You are blind, death, and dumb to the “cleverness” of demons and devils. REPENT, YOU HYPOCRITES…In the famous words of John the Baptist “”O vipers’ brood, who has warned you to flee…”

      Vanessa Mitchell

      paragraph continuation…”O vipers’ brood, who has warned you to flee…you don’t even love your neighbor who is black or Muslim or Spanish etc… You suppress them in wages restricting the quality of their life because you won’t even hire them. You justify your evil by saying “oh they don’t qualify etc. I have 40 years of the “White World Corporate Politics. I know your game very well. Keep them out of your fine neighborhoods. Don’t allow them to purchase food, clothing, or drive cars that is better than yours. And for GOD sake’s keep them out of your houses of worship by not seeking them out to invite them into your fold. I have much understanding as a Black Woman of 64 years. And as I said, I have 40 years of White Corporate Culture. Have a good day!!!

        Abba Father, I read the bitterness spewing forth from this person. Like Your House was supposed to be a House of Prayer, I read Vanessa Mitchell’s comments turning it into a politcal billboard. I bind this in the name of Yeshua Ha’Mashiach and I loose the Ruach Hakodesh to return this back to a House (thread) of Prayer.

        In the mighty name of my Savior, Jesus, Amen.

        Holy Father, you are full of loving kindness, long suffering and merciful to all. I ask you to bless Vanessa with peace and forgiveness for injustices she has suffered. Lord, may she identify with Your sufferings John 15:20 tells us the servant is not greater than his master. And since they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. You also command us to forgive those who persecute us as Jesus did as He was crucified.
        Father, I ask You to wrap Vanessa in Your loving embrace dispelling all bitterness and unforgiveness. Help her to see that in Jesus she can overcome the world in which we have tribulations, injustices, betrayals.
        Lord, bless Vanessa with Your Shalom, meet every need she has through Your great storehouse of treasures. Amen

Father! Please bless Benjamin Netanyahu with another term for Your man at the helm of Israel! Let him be like King David who ‘behaved himself wisely and the Lord was with him’. Let him seek You in all he does! Let the people of Israel put their trust in You and love You more and more each day. Let Prime Minister Bibi be elected once again Father!! In Your Precious Son’s Name, Jesus!

    I am endorsing Anna’s prayer. Israel needs to be resolute in adhering to God’s very clear plans since the day of the covenant. God has always been the source of their unparalleled continuity as a nation.
