This Week is North Korea Freedom Week

Open Door Prayer and Intercession Schedule...

I will be updating this daily and adding my own prayer suggestions for those areas that Open Doors is highlighting on that specific day

Sunday

* Asylum

Please pray for safety and protection of those North Koreans already having escaped out of North Korea , that they will be received safely into other countries and not be repatriated back to North Korea. Pray that these refugees receive political asylum and protection in these countries that are their new home and refuge.. Please Intercede that recent efforts by advocates for North Koreans freedom will lead China to fully honor their responsibilities of acting as signatory of the UN protocol - and that China will not restrict access to these refuguess by the agencies and individuals who seek to further help them.

Saturday

* Underground Railroad

Please pray for safety, protection and God's blessing upon those running and assisting the efforts of the underground railroad and that others be led to join them in their noble and bold efforts to assist North Koreans wh are seeking escape from the North Korea regime and asylum in other countries. May any plan and scheme of the enemy to uncover and derail these good works be made null and void.

In Jesus name. I pray.

Friday

* Refugees

Please pray for God's shelter and strong hand of protection and blessing upon those seeking to escape from North Korea, and those who may already have escaped to China but are hiding out , that those in China not be led to desperation and forced into slavery and prostitution, that all will be well with their souls and that God's will shall be manifest in their lives.

Thursday

* Religious Persecution

Please pray for deep spiritual peace and the boldness of the Holy Spirit for believers in North Korea, for them to hold fast to their faith in the midst of the worst possible persecution. Give them hearts like the first century Apostles and the ability to face this darkness with the confidence and security that can only be found through faith in God. May many more hearts be opened to the truth and the message of the gospel, and be moved to take the great leap of faith, trusting God with their very lives, to take them through this journey with Him always by their sides, in the midst of and through any and all perescution.

Wednesday

*Famine

Please pray that food & other aid designated for the starving and needy will truly reach them and not remain in the hands of those in government and the military. May God's heart move them (those in government) to do the righteous thing in these distribution efforts. Pray that God will provide each and every North Korean physical sustenance for their bodies, daily bread and true manna from heaven .. and for God to continuously feed their souls and spirits through the work of His Holy Spirit.

Tuesday


* Prisoners

Please pray for God's hand on the lives of those who are imprisoned unjustly, that the presence of God's Holy Spirit will be ever present and manifest upon those suffering in labor camps and give them comfort, strength and boldness. Pray for the loved ones of those imprisoned and that advocacy will raise an even greater awareness in the rest of the world of North Korea's on-going human rights violations and atrocities against it's people..

Monday

* Leadership within North Korea

Pray that all satan's strongholds over this government be abolished, that idolatry of the nations leaders will end, the political and spiritual brainwashing of the people will stop and that all in government will come to know the true God, and accept Jesus Christ as Saviour.
