I Prayed have prayed

Pray for righteous leadership to be birthed in both Iran and North Korea. Both countries have citizens that are praying along with you.

“When the righteous thrive, the people rejoice; when the wicked rule, the people groan.” (Pr. 29:2)

Several top Israeli and American experts on nuclear proliferation and Iran say the failure to successfully deal with North Korea sets a precedent for a similar result with the Islamic Republic.

“The aspect of the North Korean case that needs to be taken into account with regard to Iran is the fact that despite all the differences between the two states, they share a determination to acquire nuclear weapons in violation of the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) commitment they took upon themselves to remain non-nuclear,” said Emily Landau, director of the Arms Control and Regional Security Program at Tel Aviv University’s Institute for National Security Studies.

Although North Korea exited the NPT in 2003, the international community did not view that move as giving the rogue state carte blanche to become nuclear, she noted.

“The international community faces a similar challenge in getting [Iran and North Korea] to back down and return to the fold of the NPT,” Landau told JNS.org, “and in both cases the strategy chosen for this was negotiations and diplomacy.”

The North Korean case entails 25 years of failed negotiations. The country has been a nuclear state for at least a decade and now has demonstrated the ability to reach the U.S. with an intercontinental ballistic missile.

“This raises a question regarding the outcome of negotiations with Iran as well,” said Landau. “In 1994, there were celebrations of the deal with North Korea that were viewed as ending the nuclear crisis, but it continued to move forward.” …

The Middle East is watching North Korea

Col. (res.) Dr. Shaul Shay, director of research for the Institute for Policy and Strategy at Israel’s IDC Herzliya research college, said Middle Eastern states such as Iran are watching how America deals with the North Korean crisis.

“North Korea had supported Syria to build the nuclear reactor in Deir ez-Zor and Tehran used North Korean knowledge to build its nuclear program,” Shay told JNS.org.

Shay said failure to thwart North Korea “may be a prelude to a more challenging threat from Tehran.” The Americans should use a combination of military and political threats while recruiting China and Russia to defuse the tensions and prevent North Korea from going nuclear, he advised.

“So far, Iran is responding to the U.S. sanctions with further provocations,” he said. “Iran’s parliament voted Sunday to allocate $520 million to develop its missile program to fight Washington’s ‘adventurism’ and sanctions, and to boost the foreign operations of the country’s Revolutionary Guard.” …

“The campaign against North Korea,” said Shay, “may define the American position against Iran.” (Excerpt from Ariel Ben Solomon’s article for JNS.org)

Heavenly Father in Jesus mighty name, I come standing the power of agreement to pray for righteous, and God fearing leaders in North Korea, and Iran, may those who are in power even now submit to your will, and your way, and may those waiting in the wings to rule, and govern both these nations, or even now be placed in these seats of power over North Korea, and Iran, and may the people in North Korea be divinely protected under the heavy hand of dictatorship that they may be free to know, serve, and worship you, may every dictator come to know you.. may they have a road to Damascus experience that may come to the truth, and light of who you are, may they repent for every evil deed, may they turn from their wicked ways in Jesus mighty name!!

Dear God:

Hear the cries of Your children in North Korea and have mercy upon them. Rescue them from the hands of the devils. Raise up a shining star like Moses to lead them out of their long-suffering hopeless torturous captivities into freedom. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

Lord God, our Heavenly Father, many of us viewed 9/11 as the Lord taking his hand of protection away from America. Have we gotten better? Lord please help us, your children to be the light and salt that keeps this moral decay from happening. Help us to see the bondages we allow in our own lives by pursuing the American dream more than we seek after you. Cause our hearts to know when we are no longer in fellowship with you because a thought or attitude or sin of omission has broken our communion with a Holy God. And then Lord, gear us up for battle, for we are your warriors as well as your ambasadors. Cause us to walk in you and in the power of Jesus’s resurrection. Thank you Lord for all the spiritual blessings you have given us, help us to use them now and in a time of calamity. In Jesus name, Amen

Your foes, LORD, need your love. You know who can turn to you, and who will not. To those who will not, move them out of the way and disable them. Render them powerless according to what is written in many Psalms. Yet spare their families who will turn to you. PRAISE ADONAI !

“Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered; let them also that hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of the God. But let the righteous be glad; let them rejoice before God: yea, let them exceedingly rejoice. Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him.” Psalms 68:1-4 KJV
