WEEK 2 : CONTENDING FOR UNDERSTANDING AND HIS HEART OF COMPASSION
We entered week 2 contending for the Lord to give us understanding as Daniel did. Daniel fasted in response to a vision God gave to him pertaining to Israel in the latter days.(Daniel 10:14) In response to Daniel’s humility, God sent divine help and gave him understanding.
We found ourselves getting to know His merciful and compassionate heart for Israel and the Middle East.
May the Lord raise laborers and call them into His Harvest, Israel. May the Lord make us His laborers in these last days to give Him what He longs for for a long time.

Daniel 10:11-14 ESV
[11] And he said to me, “O Daniel, man greatly loved, understand the words that I speak to you, and stand upright, for now I have been sent to you.” And when he had spoken this word to me, I stood up trembling. [12] Then he said to me, “Fear not, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart to understand and humbled yourself before your God, your words have been heard, and I have come because of your words. [13] The prince of the kingdom of Persia withstood me twenty-one days, but Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, for I was left there with the kings of Persia, [14] and came to make you understand what is to happen to your people in the latter days. For the vision is for days yet to come.”

Matthew 9:37-38 ESV
[37] Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; [38] therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
