I stand with Israel, because Israel is God’s chosen land, for His chosen people. The re-establishment of Israel as a nation for the Jewish people after WWII is a fulfillment of God’s prophecy. As a Christian by profession of faith, I am called, and it is my pleasure, to stand and pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6).
