'I lift up my eyes to the mountains— where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord , the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip— he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. '

(Psalms 121:1-4)

Father God, we (I) pray for Israel.

Father God!

Over 900 Israelis have been killed, 2,600 injured, and about 130 kidnapped due to the southern invasion and some rocket fire by Hamas terrorists in Gaza. On Monday, all terrorists infiltrating Israel were eliminated, and 1,500 people were killed inside Israeli territory. The Israeli Air Force's airstrike on a Hamas base building in the Gaza Strip resulted in 770 casualties and 4,000 casualties, the Gaza Health Ministry announced. Over the past few months, Hamas has used information strategies to mislead Israel and give the impression that it has no intention of fighting or confronting Israel while preparing for a large-scale operation against it. Israel acknowledged that it was left defenseless after the attack coincided with the Jewish Sabbath and Tabernacle holidays. In addition, 26 countries, including Americans, are among the dead, and 84 countries, including the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Norway, Australia, and Korea, condemn the Hamas terrorist attack and support Israel. However, on the 8th and 9th, there were several rocket attacks by Hezbollah in the north, an Israeli lieutenant colonel was killed in a shootout at the border, and several people were injured in a terrorist attack in Tel Aviv. Prime Minister Netanyahu discussed forming an emergency government with opposition party leaders, and on the night of the 9th, Prime Minister Netanyahu gave a speech saying that the government, military, and people must become one to win this war.

Heavenly Father, Israel has lost many lives, and many wounded are receiving treatment due to terrorist attacks in the Gaza Strip. Please comfort the families who lost loved ones and heal those injured. Please protect the lives of the kidnapped soldiers and civilians and help them return safely. Above all, please protect the borders around the east and west to prevent invasion by Hezbollah on the northern border with Lebanon and Syria on the northeast. 'For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord , “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. ' (Jeremiah 29:11-13) In this war, please help all the people of Israel believe in Your thoughts of peace for Israel and cry out to the Lord in prayer. We declare that the war belongs to Jehovah. May the current soldiers and reserve forces fighting the war more than anyone else become God's new threshing machines, trusting in God and praying, and become God's instruments of victory. 'Do not be afraid, you worm Jacob, little Israel, do not fear, for I myself will help you,” declares the Lord , your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. “See, I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth. You will thresh the mountains and crush them, and reduce the hills to chaff. ' (Isaiah 41:14-15). According to these words, please let the Israeli soldiers on the battlefield not be afraid and rely only on God to help them. Please use the Israeli soldiers as a new threshing machine and hold on to them so that they can become warriors who attack entirely, crush, and send away their enemies. Please protect and protect their lives from danger.

'Have mercy on me, my God, have mercy on me, for in you I take refuge. I will take refuge in the shadow of your wings until the disaster has passed. I cry out to God Most High, to God, who vindicates me. '(Psalms 57:1-2). We pray that during this difficult time of war, Israel will cry out to God, pray, and ultimately turn to Him. We also pray that Israel's divided hearts between right and left will become one and that all citizens will become a country where they trust God. 'Gaza will be abandoned and Ashkelon left in ruins. At midday, Ashdod will be emptied and Ekron uprooted. Woe to you who live by the sea, you Kerethite people; the word of the Lord is against you, Canaan, land of the Philistines. He says, “I will destroy you, and none will be left.” The land by the sea will become pastures, having wells for shepherds and pens for flocks. That land will belong to the remnant of the people of Judah; there, they will find pasture. In the evening, they will lie down in the houses of Ashkelon. The Lord their God will care for them; he will restore their fortunes. ' (Zephaniah 2:4-7)

Heavenly Father, please remove idols from this land and make us a nation and people that repent before the God of Israel and serve only Jehovah God. Please help us to fully return and humble ourselves before Jehovah God and firmly believe that the God of Israel is the faithful God who is fulfilling the words He spoke about Israel even during this war. May Gaza and Canaan, the land of the Philistines, be returned to the remnant of the house of Judah. May the previously returned settlements and lands in the Gaza Strip be restored to Israel as the land promised to Abraham, and may peace be declared in that land. Heavenly Father, thank you for keeping your covenant and protecting and caring for the people of Israel.

“Heavenly Father, we thank you for calling all of us, Gentiles, as intercessors and servants of God’s great and precious work. We pray with the mission of a watchman on the perfect wall. Give us peace in Jerusalem, Lord God, establish Jerusalem and be praised. May the Jews and all the tribes of Israel scattered throughout the nations who must return to their homeland return to the Promised Land. Please work so Aliyah can be fulfilled even among the believing Jews by changing the law of return. Give us the power to fully fulfill the precious mission of praying and serving each of us until the word of God is fulfilled. May I always live a life of faith filled with the Holy Spirit. Please take care of our health.”

In the name of Yeshua Messiah, I (we) pray for Israel.

'Ascribe to the Lord , all you families of nations, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength. Ascribe to the Lord the glory due his name; bring an offering and come into his courts. Worship the Lord in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth. Say among the nations, “The Lord reigns.” The world is firmly established, it cannot be moved; he will judge the peoples with equity. '

(Psalms 96:7-10)

Father God, I (we) pray for the nation.

Father God!

On October 7, a magnitude 6.3 earthquake occurred in Herat Province, western Afghanistan. Several aftershocks followed, causing more than 4,500 casualties, and the Taliban government announced on the 9th that the number is expected to continue to increase. After the Islamic militant organization Taliban returned to power in August 2021, foreign aid to Afghanistan was halted, and the country is facing a severe humanitarian crisis. The international community is also showing little interest in Afghanistan earthquake relief. Because the Afghan government has limited equipment and technology for rescue operations, it has been unable to provide equipment despite residents' requests for rescue assistance, and residents of Herat Province are said to be pulling out people buried under the rubble with their bare hands and shovels. (Spanish EFE News)

Heavenly Father, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom will rise against kingdom; there will be famines and earthquakes in various places; all these are the beginning of disasters” (Matthew 24:7-8) May the Lord take pity on, comfort, and show mercy to the residents of Herat Province, Afghanistan, who are suffering from the grief of losing their families in the earthquake, all their possessions, and suffering under the rubble without help. Please have mercy on the persecution and suffering suffered by Christians in Afghanistan amid the evil of the Taliban government. Please, Holy Spirit, watch over and protect us in difficult moments so we can become believers who run the race of faith until the end. When the Lord was in the world, His disciples asked, “What will be the sign of Your coming and the end of the age?” (Matthew 24:3). In this era, especially as they saw the signs of earthquakes, floods, heat waves, and fires occurring all over the world, all the nations of the earth May all souls come to know God and go to Him. Let more people realize the love of God who loved the world and sent His only begotten son, Yeshua, and come to the cross of Yeshua, the Lord of life, and gain eternal life.

We (I) prayed for the nations in the name of Yeshua Messiah. Amen. 

'I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. '

(1 Timothy 2:1-2)

Father God, I (we) pray for the US.

Father God!

Last May, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt signed a bill banning gender reassignment treatment for minors under 18, saying that as governor, he was proud to ban life-changing transition surgeries for children in the state. In response, state Attorney General Gentner Drummond and the American Civil Liberties Union called the action a violation of equal protection under the law for the five minors and their families. On the 5th, Judge John Heil III of the U.S. District Court dismissed the complaint against the state government for a ‘request for relief from a gender reassignment injunction.’

Heavenly Father, we bless Oklahoma Governor Kevin, who opposed the current government's implementation of wrong transgender ideology education and made the right decision about what was wrong. Judge John Heil III dismissed the complaint against it. Please give God's people the determination of faith to speak out for the truth and live a life of obedience to it, and give parents courage and boldness to educate their children with the right word. “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its taste, how can it be made saltier? Then it is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled on by men.” (Matthew 5:13) As Yeshua said, please help people of faith live the lives of those seasoned with the salt of truth in a decaying world. Please fill us with the Holy Spirit so that we can live with the light of life in this rebellious world of darkness, and let us be parents who properly teach the next generation the Word of God and raise them to live with bold faith that overcomes the world.

Father God!

On October 2, former President Trump, a 2024 conservative presidential candidate, responded to a civil fraud trial, and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson explained how dangerous the case was. Trump, the front-runner in the presidential race, said all 91 criminal charges were politically motivated and were a decision made by progressives to prevent Trump from being elected president, which is absurd. Additionally, political commentator Davis Hanson said: “The Democrats are using the judiciary to legally stop him in this outrageous case brought by New York State's left-wing Attorney General Letitia James, and it is a trial show with a predetermined outcome, with left-wing Judge Engoron aiding the process.” 

Heavenly Father! There are opinions pointing out errors in the judiciary's legal process and various case manipulations by progressives trying to block the path of conservative presidential candidates from running. We pray that fair and legal procedures will take place and that a person who serves God will be elected president so that God can shape America's tomorrow. We also pray that justice and righteousness will be achieved in the American judiciary. In the United States, same-sex marriage was legalized through the policies of progressives, and the ‘Respect for Marriage Act,’ which prohibits discrimination against sexual minorities in various types of marriage, including same-sex marriage, is recognized in all states. “In the gospel, the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith, as it is written, ‘The righteous will live by faith.’”(Romans 1:17). According to these words, please help American Christians live lives that obey the Word of God. Please help the church and believers wake up, pray, and cry for America to fulfill the Lord’s will! “Be wise therefore, you kings; be instructed, you judges of the earth; serve the LORD in fear of him; rejoice with trembling.” (Psalm 2:10-11) According to these words, please help the country's political leaders and judges receive God's teachings and become people who practice the law uprightly and honestly.

Father God!

We pray for the 2024 US presidential election. 

Please help us rise as more faithful intercessors for next year's elections in 2024 and help America return to its holy path. To this end, please prevent all election fraud so we can appoint leaders God approves. Please support American churches and believers and pray for next year's election with the belief that next year's election may be the last opportunity for America to recover. Please help America use its good influence to support Israel and bring more harvests to the nations. Please help America stand upright before the Lord and become a nation serving God and influencing other countries extensively. Also, pray for our children, the Samuel generation, to stand as servants of the Lord and turn this land away from evil deeds. '“I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one. ' (Ezekiel 22:30) Like these words, please let more churches and intercessors rise to protect this land by blocking the collapsed walls. May righteousness and justice be achieved in all past and upcoming elections, truthful and accurate gratitude be achieved, and may the church and intercessors pray without ceasing.

We (I) prayed for America in the name of Yeshua, Messiah. Amen. 

'Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord ; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation. Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song. For the Lord is the great God, the great King above all gods. '

(Psalms 95:1-3)

Father God, I (we) pray for South Korea.

Father God!

On October 4th, Kurzgesagt, a science and medicine YouTube channel with 21.2 million subscribers, shed light on Korea's low birth rate crisis and published a video titled 'Why Korea is Dying Out.'  This video exceeded 2.61 million views and over 18,000 comments within two days of its release. This video shows that "Korea's average birth rate per woman in 2022 is 0.8, the lowest in the world," and that "if the current young population is 100, that number will decrease to 6 in 2100, and within 100 years, 94% of Korea's young people will be born." “It will become a country of fewer old people." He also predicted that “Korea’s population in 2100 will be 24 million.” “This is a return to the level of the 1950s.” The problem is, “If the median age in Korea in 1950 was 18 (19), it will be 45 in 2023 and 59 in 2100.” It was said that as society ages, medical costs and poverty will explode, and pension deficits will increase. In response to Korea's low birth rate problem, David Coleman, professor emeritus at Oxford University, warned, "Korea will become the first country to lose its population," and added, "If this continues, Korea is at risk of disappearing as a nation by 2750."

Heavenly Father, South Korea ranks last among OECD member countries with a total fertility rate of 0.78 and a population growth rate of -0.14%. There are even gloomy predictions that it will experience a population decline more rapidly than any other country. They will lead to the ‘extinction of the Republic of Korea.’ In creating all things in the world, “God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them. Male and female, he created them. God blessed them. Then God told them, “Be fruitful and increase in number, fill the earth, and subdue it.” “Take control over the fish and the birds of the sky and every living thing that moves on the earth.” (Genesis 1:27-28) Please bless the families of married couples and give birth to life according to God’s words. In particular, please help young people of faith be thankful for marriage, receive the blessing of children, and build happy families. “Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, and the fruit of the womb is a reward. The children of a young man are like arrows in the hand of a warrior. Blessed is the man whose quiver is filled with arrows. They will not be put to shame when they speak with their enemies in the gate.” (Psalm 127:3-5) Please bless young families to become families who accumulate heavenly rewards through their children, as the Bible says.

Father God!

Please have mercy on the North Korean people who are suffering and being trampled in North Korea and the North Korean defectors imprisoned in China and repatriated to North Korea, and grant them a day of liberation when the Three Eighth Parallel opens soon. “But the people who know their God will be strong and valiant” (Daniel 11:32b). Like these words, please help the people of the Republic of Korea become strong people who know God. Please unite North and South Korea through the unification of the gospel, not war, and make them a nation that serves God. Please listen to the tearful prayers of North Korean believers and quickly bring about the day when we can worship the Lord to our heart’s content. Please unify us through the Gospel and give us a day when the collapsed churches in North Korea are rebuilt, and worship is revived. May God work to make Korea an advanced missionary country, unified by the gospel and a unified Christian nation. May the Korean church awaken the world's governments and allow the church and believers to prepare and welcome the way of the Lord, who will return with the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Please help us become a country that reveals the glory of God.

In the name of Yeshua Messiah, I (we) prayed for South Korea. Amen.
