Psalm 122 calls us to rejoice and to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, the city God has chosen and loved throughout the generations. In this Psalm, David celebrates the joy of gathering in God’s presence and expresses a heartfelt desire for Jerusalem’s peace, unity, and prosperity. Today, that same call to prayer remains vital. As we lift up the city of David, we pray not only for its safety but for its people to come to know the Prince of Peace—Jesus the Messiah. Join me in this prayer, and if it speaks to your heart, I invite you to share it on your social media to spread the call to pray for Jerusalem even further. Let’s fill the world with prayers for peace, hope, and salvation.

Prayer

Father, You’ve chosen Jerusalem. It’s the city of David! Jerusalem is the historic capital of Israel. I ask that the city of Jerusalem will experience abundant peace and prosperity, but ultimately my prayer is they’ll experience the Prince of Peace. Bring them to Jesus, the Messiah, so they can truly enter into Your presence. I pray this in the name of Jesus, the King of the Jews.

Psalms 122:1-9

I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the Lord.” Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem. Jerusalem is built like a city that is closely compacted together. That is where the tribes go up—the tribes of the Lord—to praise the name of the Lord according to the statute given to Israel. There stand the thrones for judgment, the thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: “May those who love you be secure. May there be peace within your walls and security within your citadels.” For the sake of my family and friends, I will say, “Peace be within you.” For the sake of the house of the Lord our God, I will seek your prosperity.
