Jordan reaffirmed its commitment to the peace treaty with Israel, in the wake of the incident in which a Jordanian minister was pictured stepping on an image of the Israeli flag. Israel’s Foreign Ministry issued a statement, deploring the flag “desecration.” and said it had summoned the acting Jordanian ambassador. Jordan is one of two Arab countries, along with Egypt, that has signed a peace treaty with Israel. The treaty stipulated that the deal would be automatically renewed unless either of the parties notified the other a year before expiry that it wished to terminate the agreement. Pray that Jordan will continue to commit to peace with Israel. Pray that the people will know that their lives are secured in God (The Bible, Psalm 122:6).
