Let's Continue to Pray....

So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.
The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries stood guard at the entrance. Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. "Quick, get up!" he said, and the chains fell off Peter's wrists.
Then the angel said to him, "Put on your clothes and sandals." And Peter did so. "Wrap your cloak around you and follow me," the angel told him. Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a vision. They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went through it. When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the angel left him.
Then Peter came to himself and said, "Now I know without a doubt that the Lord sent his angel and rescued me from Herod's clutches and from everything the Jewish people were anticipating." (Acts 12:5-11)

I continue to have a burden for our Korean brothers and sisters held captive in Afghanistan. It is not a good feeling reading the news each day, half expecting another to be killed by their captors. (at this moment, their captives have claimed to have killed another, though that has yet to to confirmed)

I don't know what God's will for them is at this moment, and I am not assuming that God has definitely intended them all for martyrdom.

So let us continue to pray for God's miracle to come through, to rescue His people from captivity. In the same way that he rescued Peter, He can do the same for the Korean Christians. Let us not be found lacking in our efforts to pray for them.

As for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the LORD by failing to pray for you.
(Isa 12:23)
