Yahudic Jewish in Israel

Have you ever heard of the Yahudic Jews? They are Jews who settled in the area now called Iraq after the destruction of Jerusalem by the Babylonians in 586 BC and Romans in AD 70. Almost all of these Iraqi Jews have moved to Israel. For hundreds of years they have been regarded as the leading scholars of the Jewish world. Most Yahudic Jews in Israel speak Hebrew, Arabic and English.

Ministry Obstacles

Many Jews view Christians as responsible for the Holocaust, the murder of almost six million Jews during World War II. Jews often see becoming a Christian as forsaking their families and ancient culture.

Scripture Focus

"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty."  Psalm 91:1

Scripture Prayer

Pray for many from today’s people group to find rest in their relationship with the Lord.

Prayer Focus

Pray that God would show his grace by leading more Yahudic Jewish to himself. Pray that God would stir the hearts of Christ followers to share the good news of the perfect Jew, Jesus the Messiah. Pray that the Lord would raise up a movement to Christ among the Yahudic Jews of Israel. Pray for more workers to go to the Jewish peoples of Israel. Pray that Messianic fellowships in Israel might grow in number and size as more and more Yahudic Jews encounter and trust in their Messiah.
