Are You Weary?

Are You Weary?                  FIRM (Fellowship of Israel Related Ministries) 

I’ve often found that the most meaningful times to pray aren’t when things feel clear or hopeful, but when the weariness of the situation starts to set in. When you don’t have a clean resolution in sight. When it would be easier to just step back and disengage.

Passover doesn’t ignore that tension—it actually shows it.

Even as God was moving, even as things were unfolding exactly as He said they would, the Israelites kept looking at the next problem and questioning the whole thing. Why did this have to start? Wouldn’t it have been better to stay where we were? It’s not that they couldn’t see what God was doing. It’s that they couldn’t see how it would end.

And if we’re honest, that’s not far from where many people find themselves right now. When you look at how intractable the Iranian regime has been, even under pressure—economic, political, and military—it’s easy to start thinking in terms of stalemate, or worse, escalation.

But whatever we think about how this unfolds, we need to be careful not to come to the conclusion that God is absent from it. HE ISN’T.

He is no less present now than He was when Pharaoh watched one plague after another and still refused to change. Which is why this moment matters for prayer. Not because everything is clear—but because it isn’t.

We put together a special prayer guide for this exact kind of moment. It’s grounded in what’s actually happening right now—specific ways to pray for Israel, for the Iranian people, for the underground Church, and for what could come next.
