Now, “Lord of the whole earth” (Micah 4:13; ESV), be gracious to Your believing people in the Middle East. Just as I completed composing this prayer with Your help, news broke out that Israel and the United States launched a massive joint attack on Iran, on February 28, 2026. Iran wasted no time in launching retaliatory waves of missiles toward Israel and U. S. military bases in the Persian Gulf. We know that this was no surprise for You. For, You are in control of all the affairs of the nations. Therefore, we earnestly pray to You to protect and preserve Your chosen people- Israel and Your believing children in the Middle East. As well, we plead with You to bring good out of this rapidly developing situation. Specifically, we pray “that the word of the Lord may speed ahead and be honored” (2 Thessalonians 3:1; ESV) among the people of the Middle East. O Lord of the whole world, set free many who are deceived and held in bondage by the devil for ages. We thank You that You are the Great Warrior, Conqueror and Victor.
