Prayer for the Israel Defense Forces

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our God from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.

May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.

May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your God, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.

Thank you (((((Alouette))))) for the beautiful prayer and all that you do to get the word out about the Israeli cause. I have read many of your posts and although I do not comment, I have learned much from you.

May God continue to bless the Israelis, His chosen people.

Thanks for stopping by Alouette. I'm embarrassed to say when I added your son to my military prayer list I could not think what IDF stood for. (acronyms can be frustrating sometimes :o) ) God bless your son and prayers for his safety.
