[Today’s Prayer] Saudi Arabia steadfastly rejects establishment of Palestinian state in the country

Saudi Arabia announced on the 9th that it firmly rejects Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's call for a Palestinian state to be established in the country.

According to AFP and Al Jazeera, Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement on the same day stating that it is absolutely opposed to any call for Palestinians to relocate from their homeland to Saudi Arabia.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said on the 6th, “If Saudi Arabia wants a Palestinian state, let it be within Saudi Arabia.”

Prime Minister Netanyahu claimed that “Saudi Arabia can establish a Palestinian state within its territory,” and that “it has a large territory.”

Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries have previously strongly opposed US President Donald Trump’s plan to relocate the residents of the Gaza Strip, which has been devastated by the war between Israel and Hamas, to other regions. Saudi Arabia has also declared that it will not establish diplomatic relations with Israel without the establishment of a Palestinian state.

In the interview, Prime Minister Netanyahu made it clear that he would reject the idea of ​​allowing the establishment of a Palestinian state locally, saying that it “could put Israel at risk.”

The Israeli government opposes the so-called “two-state solution” in which Israel and Palestine coexist as sovereign states.

Prime Minister Netanyahu criticized, "The Gaza Strip controlled by Hamas was a Palestinian state," and "the result was a massacre on a large scale since the Holocaust (the massacre of Jews by Nazi Germany)." He compared Hamas' surprise attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.

He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted. (Jon 9:10)

As the conflict between Israel and Palestine continues, we hear that Saudi Arabia has categorically rejected the establishment of a Palestinian state within its borders.

Peace between Palestine and Israel seems far away after so many years of conflict, but we trust that you will work and accomplish your wonders.

God, have mercy on all those in Palestine and Israel who suffer in the conflict. Grant refuge to oppressed and displaced Palestinians, and guide Israeli leaders to act with justice and mercy.

Help Saudi Arabia and other Arab nations and the international community to make just and wise decisions so that true peace may come to the land, and may the world church pray together to prepare the way for Your return!

May the Palestinian people, who have been displaced and unloved, rise up with the Gospel and become loving souls who know You, so that through them Israel may rise up in jealousy and together praise You as King and proclaim Yeshua, the King of all nations!
