While the Bible makes frequent mention of military affairs and speaks often of soldiers, the important principle that emerges is that which is found in today’s verse. We must always remember that it is not our own efforts that matter, rather it is “He who makes our borders peaceful.” As we pray for the return of the three Israeli teens kidnapped by Hamas, we pray to the One Above to grant success to all of the incredible efforts of the IDF.

You can feel the emotional power and significance of this mission as IDF paratroopers work tirelessly to search the hills and homes of Israel for the three kidnapped boys.

The Chief Rabbis of Israel have urged us to recite Psalm 130 for the safety of the boys. Each and every day at 11 am EST, until the boys return home, we will be storming the gates of heaven and beseeching the Almighty with the words of King David’s Psalm.

“We Will Pray for Them From the Bottom of our Hearts”
We are grateful for the many emails of support of our dear readers from around the world who are praying for Eyal Yifrah, 19, Gilad Shaar, 16, and Naftali Frenkel, 16. May all of our collective prayers pierce the heavens and bring the safe return of our boys.
We will pray for them from the bottom of our hearts. May Lord bring them back to their families safe and in good health. Amine
