June 7-9, 2019: GPC Prayer Conference in Jerusalem
Jerusalem and the “Valley of Decision”

Invitation

"In those days and at that time, when I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem, I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat” (Joel 3,1-2a).

Intercessors from all around the world are realizing that Jerusalem, and especially the Temple Mount, is increasingly becoming the center of global conflict – in the seen and in the unseen worlds. Governments must decide how they position themselves in regard to Jerusalem. The royal priesthood of every nation is called upon to seek the Lord for guidance as to how they should unite and seek divine strategies and empowerment in these decisive times.

This will be the 3rd conference of its kind in Jerusalem. Once again, we expect intercessory leaders and intercessors from all continents to participate. And, once again, In Jerusalem, the undivided Jewish capital of Israel and the “city of the great king”, we as an international gathering take our position as “watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem” – keeping watch for Jerusalem and for our nations with regard to Jerusalem!

This year the “Global Prayer Call” (GPC) conference will follow - and is somewhat connected with - the 3rd Jerusalem Prayer Breakfast (JPB), from June 4-6. Both conferences are completely independent in leadership, setup and style. But spiritually they complement each other: The JPB conference focusses on prayer for the peace of Jerusalem and the Israeli leadership. The GPC conference focusses on prayer for our governments, nations and continents around the world concerning their positioning regarding Jerusalem.

We are changing our conference venue! Instead of the Israel Prayer Tower in Western Jerusalem, we have been invited by Rick and Patricia Ridings to use the rooms in “Succat Hallel”, a 24/7 center for prayer and worship opposite the Temple Mount with a history of about 12 years of uninterrupted “incense” of worship, prayer and (governmental) intercession. We sense that the Lord has very special reason “at such a time as this” to change our plans and place us at this prayer altar.

Each participant is responsible for their own accommodation and meals. If you need help for travel arrangements, please contact your travel agent or our partner, Keshet tours in Israel (www.keshetisrael.co.il).
