"This binding resolution will ensure that the Assad regime must keep its commitments, or face consequences," Obama said at a press conference at the White House. "We’ll have to be vigilant about following through, but this could be a significant victory for the international community, and demonstrate how strong diplomacy can allow us to secure our country and pursue a better world," he said.

Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham, who have for months pushed for more aggressive US involvement in Syria to aid the opposition, immediately released a statement pouring cold water on the resolution.

"This resolution is another triumph of hope over reality," the senators said in a prepared statement. "It contains no meaningful or immediate enforcement mechanisms, let alone a threat of the use of force for the Assad regime’s non-compliance. The whole question of enforcement has been deferred."

But a senior administration official told reporters on Friday that the resolution was an achievement that went beyond what a military campaign could have accomplished.

"This would, frankly, go beyond achieving the objective that we were contemplating with military action," the official said.

The call comes just days before Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is to travel to New York and Washington to make his case against Iran's nuclear program, both publicly and privately."We'll continue to keep the Israeli government updated on this diplomatic effort," the official said. "The Israeli government has every right to be skeptical of the Iranian government, given... threats toward Israel's existence."

PRAYER For Israel’s Neighbors

“No leader, no government can

block intercession anywhere in the

world. That is one thing that can get

into any country. So we must pray as

Believers that God would continue to push the Gospel to

the ends of the earth.”

Tom Doyle (CBN News Interview)

Ticker Tape Prayers – Started back on September 11, 2001 when news was coming too fast to report so ticker tape style of reporting started in order to update everyone. With that same style in mind, take the news that you have access to and pray. Pray for salvation of leaders, wisdom to fill decision makers, pray for God’s will to be done here as it is in Heaven, and pray for both the aggressors and for victims in situation.

PRAYER Ticker Tape –

Pray for the news as it comes across the

airwaves.

Pray for:*God’s will

* salvation of leaders

*wise decision makers

*both aggressors and victims in any

situation

PRAYER INDIVIDUALS – Countries, headlines and

“situations” are all made up of individual people.

People created in His image.

People who are children, parents, siblings,

co-workers; not a grouping or statistics.

Each person has a name and an appointed time on God’s Kingdom calendar; placed by and known by

God Himself.

“City of Peace”For a child will be born to us, a son

will be given to us; And the

government will rest on His

shoulders; And His name will be called

Wonderful Counselor, Mighty

God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

Isaiah 9:6

ISRAELA Song of Ascents, of David.

I was glad when they said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD." Our feet are standing Within your gates, O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, that is built as a city that is compact together; To which the tribes go up, even the tribes of the LORD-- An

ordinance for Israel-- To give thanks to the name of the LORD. For there thrones were set for

judgment, the thrones of the house of David. Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: "May they

prosper who love you. "May peace be within your walls, And prosperity within your palaces." For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, "May peace be within you." For the sake

of the house of the LORD our God, I will seek your good.

Psalm 122:1-9
