During August and September, we began a new prayer initiative ‘Battle for Britain’ and we gathered faithfully every day to intercede on behalf of the UK nation, government and church.

As the unity of strength and fellowship became the foundation for prayer, we started to see answered prayers, but there is so much more to pray for.

In Ezekiel 22:30 it states: 

“So I sought for a man among them who would make a wall, and stand in the gap before Me on behalf of the land, that I should not destroy it…” NKJV

Thank you to all who stand in the gap for Israel and our own country at various prayer gatherings.

The ‘Battle for Britain’ continues every Monday and Friday at 8am for half an hour of spirit-led prayer.

This was spoken by Pastor Israel Pochtar. Pastor of Beit Hallel Congregation in Ashdod at the Feast of Tabernacles, October 2025. He saw firsthand what happened in Gaza on October 7, 2023.

This year he visited the UK and as he was on his way to speak in a church near to the Jewish community, he saw the demonstrations of the pro-Palestinians. He could see the hatred, the violence and the demonic spirits that were causing this hatred.

This touched him greatly, but not in a good way. He then started praying about all this hatred and started asking the Lord how these demonstrations could be addressed, as they were so close to the Jewish community.

Then he had a vision where he saw normal British-born individuals, possibly witha Christian upbringing and many who class themselves as Christians.

In the vision, he saw these young people (mainly white British individuals) screaming curses at Israel and shouting from the river to the sea and for the destruction of Israel. According to the Bible they were calling for curses to come upon their lives, and we know that if you open your life up to Satan, you open yourselves up to spirits of hatred and antisemitism.

Antisemitism is one of the ancient and very strong spirits, and they will come into these people in this vision.

In the vision, he saw destruction coming to the lives of young people who will experience all sorts of trouble, and they will start suffering and through this suffering, they will call upon the Lord, and they will run to the churches, and many of them will be saved, delivered and changed and become people of the Kingdom and friends of Israel.

This was such a clear vision, and he pointed out that there is hope in the midst of this evil and that God can turn this evil for good.

So, this is our prayer going forward; that those who have been blinded by hatred and antisemitism will find the truth in Jesus, their Messiah. To pray for their salvation.

Blessings,
Gordon and Karen
