Rewritten Article: Dozens of anti-Israel protesters were arrested as students clashed with Austin police and Texas State troopers at the University of Texas. Meanwhile, Pastor Jesse Bradley from Grace Community Church in Auburn, Washington highlighted that the Bible is filled with accounts showcasing how effective prayer can be. He stated, “In a relationship with God, we are encouraged to pray and listen to His voice; it leads us into action through prayer itself which brings change”. Accordingly, some individuals have a desire to offer prayers but struggle with finding suitable words to say due to uncertainty regarding the same. Bradley further added that in such situations where one is unsure about what to utter during their supplications, they should remember that “prayer is global and very personal.”
Bradley emphasized that God does not delight in human deaths (Ezekiel 33:11) and urged people to pray for protection. He also encouraged individuals to seek wisdom from the Almighty as leaders who honor Him will be guided by His decisions, which is mentioned in James 1:5. Moreover, Bradley requested everyone to plead with God for peace not only in Jerusalem but across the world (Psalms 122:6). According to Bradley, individuals can remain certain about a fact that irrespective of their ethnicity or nationality; Jesus is concerned and compassionate towards each soul.
Bradley further urged people to pray for courage as those who risked their lives in order to assist others are protected by God (John 15:13). While addressing the issue, Bradley asserted that individuals should remember what has been revealed about Jewish communities scattered across different nations whenever they make a request. In brief, Bradley reiterated his plea saying that when people pray, their hearts pour out to God; they confess and repent for their sins while also interceding on behalf of others who are close to them in terms of kinship ties as well. Finally, Bradley mentioned how supplication serves various objectives ranging from uniting individuals across the globe to crying out with a heavy heart towards God (Psalms 46:10). He urged everyone to persistently and fervently pray for their brothers, sisters and others in distress; may we find comfort through faith as God brings good even amidst terrible situations.
