God of Comfort and Refuge, we bring before You the wounded and fearful near the Lebanese border in northern Israel. You are our strong tower, a shelter for those who run to You in times of danger. Draw near to the brokenhearted and bind up their wounds, healing both body and spirit. Restrain the forces that perpetuate violence and let Your peace rest over this land. Reveal Jesus to soldiers, first responders, and families caught in the turmoil of conflict. Strengthen believers to be a light in the darkness, and let Your name be a fortress of hope and safety. For Your glory and in the name of Jesus, who is our peace, we pray. Amen.
