Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself Reverend Ben Cooper recorded live here in London, England, where faith meets the world in daily devotion and global hope. I want to tell you, listeners and brothers, don't you ever give up. Whatever nation you're in right now, these prayers are designed by the Holy Spirit. You know, when we come into this studio, we believe that God has given us these scriptures. There might be times when we are pressing the same scripture day after day, hour after hour. That is because God has laid it on our hearts. Now I'm with you right now, wherever you are, and I'm telling you, never give
up. We're gonna pray for our brothers and sisters wherever they are within the persecuted church, faith under fire. I need you, sister and brother, to
lock in with me. Come on, we're gonna pray for our sisters and brothers in North Korea, Afghanistan, Somalia, and Libya. Father, in the name of Jesus, we know that they're God, their faith is under fire. The persecuted church, the underground church. Father, we thank you today, Lord, as the persecuted church rises right now, but Lord, we pray for North Korea. North Korea will be saved. We believe that North Korea belongs to the God of Israel. We believe that North Korea is a Bible-believing nation and the spirit of the living God is in North Korea.
We pray, dear God, for Afghanistan. We pray, dear God, that the love of God will bring peace to Afghanistan. Right now, Lord, we pray for the borders. We pray for every area of Afghanistan. We pray for the leaders. We pray for the churches. We thank you, Lord, that Bibles are getting into Afghanistan right now in Jesus' name.
We pray for Somalia. Lord, as the sun rises in Somalia, we believe that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior over everybody that lives and travels within Somalia. That the God of Israel, the Father of the uh the God above all gods, the Father above all kings, the Father above all humanity, Jesus Christ, we thank you that our God is in Somalia right now.
Lord, we bring Libya to the cross of Calvary and we believe that Libya will be saved. We believe that Libya, dear God, will see the hand and the power of God. But right now we pray for our brothers and sisters that are living and moving. We pray, dear God, for faith under fire, the persecuted church. We ask you, dear God, for courage, endurance, and God's sustaining strength to be with those Christians, dear God, that are running from their lives. Father, wherever we are, from Cairo, dear God, to Egypt, from Egypt to Seoul, from Seoul, dear God, to Mumbai, to Bronesseris. Father, across this world, we pray for every tribe,
every tongue. But today we lock down and we believe Matthew 5, verse 10 is for our brothers and sisters. Blessed are those that are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Father, we thank you for our sisters and brothers. Lord, we ask, dear God, that you will strengthen those that are in the persecuted church. Today, Lord, faith under fire as families across the earth strengthen every believer, standing firm within the persecuted church. Cover their sons and daughters in North Korea, Afghanistan, Somalia, and Libya. Father, we believe divine courage is with every brother and sister wherever they are. Let the underground church know that the presence of God is so strong. Protect them. Let your guidance be with them. Give them endurance when weary, when tired. Father, give them hope when
threatened. Give them peace when surrounded by danger. Lord, we believe we pray for prayer for courage, prayer for protection, prayer for the persecuted believer, prayer for have bold faith, the prayer for endurance, the prayer for comfort, the prayer for hope. Lord, bless those, dear God, those families that are left behind because those in their lives have been martyred for the gospel of Jesus Christ. We pray, dear God, for those that are in prison for their faith, those that have been put in prison because of their love of Jesus. Bless the pastors, bless the leaders. Let the churches, dear God, explode with the power of the Holy Spirit. Let your glory reign down, Father God. But we believe right now that the persecuted church is growing. The whispering church, the silent church, the church that is underground. Dear God, the secret church. Father, bless those that are gathering for the word today. Bless those ones and twos that are taking communion. Bless those, dear God, that are prying for miracles in the situations that are in. Father, we pray that they will feel the heartbeat of God, that they will feel the presence of God, that they will feel the love of God, that they will feel the strength of God, the goodness
of God, Spirit of the living God. Let your love permeate all the way through the persecuted church wherever they are. We thank you that they got unshakable faith today, unshakable hope. We declare that every persecuted believer is walking in God's courage and strength. May the Lord be with you wherever you are, sister and brother. May the Lord bless the persecuted church. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. Until tomorrow.
