Rabbi Scott Sekulow
This is a sad time in our history, and a time that all must come together and pray for all that have been affected by this terrorist act on innocent people. We now see how Israel feels when its men, women and children are attacked for no reason. I pray for those that are trapped and for our president, as he must pull this country back together. We must pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the United States.
Rabbi Sekulow is founder of Israel's Harvest Ministries.

Bishop T.D. Jakes
The terrorist attacks on the United States have stunned our nation. I want to call all Americans to pray. Pray for the victims and their families. Pray for the emergency workers so overwhelmed by these multiple incidents. Pray for President Bush as he sorts through the details of this horrific attack on our nation. Pray for the people so lost and desperate that they would resort to such an act. While we can never understand why these things happen, we must remember that God is with us in this time of pain and loss. He will not leave us or forsake us. This is a time for prayer, for courage and for Americans to support one another as we carry on.
Bishop T.D. Jakes is pastor of The Potter’s House in Dallas, Texas, and the author of a number of books.

In light of the recent terrorist attacks on our country, we ask for your immediate and fervent prayer on behalf of our nation's victims, our government leaders, and those dedicated individuals rendering aid and assistance in New York and Washington, D.C.
We are blessed to report that all Campus Crusade staff in New York City and Washington, D.C., are well and accounted for. Many are already on the scene praying and encouraging those in shock and pain with the message of our Lord's love.
As God would have it, our President's Cabinet was in session when the attacks happened. We are dedicating ourselves to doing what Jesus would have us do in this time of national crisis.
The promise of Romans 8:28 has not ceased to be true. We have every reason to hope and not despair. Please claim God's wisdom for us and the Crisis Management Team as we continue to meet.
Steve Douglass is president of Campus Crusade for Christ.
Larry Huch
First off, all our prayers go out to all the victims and their families of these terrorist attacks.
These tragic events help us understand the challenges that Israel faces in trying to negotiate with a people that send their children into the street to celebrate disaster and death.
This is why God has asked us to pray for our own governments, for general peace in the Middle East and specifically in Jerusalem.
Any religion that endorses murdering of innocent people is obviously not a religion of the compassionate and merciful God of our faith.
Secondly, we are praying for all of America along with countless numbers of others, believing that terrorism will not strike this great nation again.
Larry Huch is pastor of New Beginnings Christian Center in Portland, Ore.
