In a highly unusual press conference in Pyongyang in September, the National Security Service of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) announced the arrest of “foreign spies” and “native citizens working for a foreign intelligence service.”
"We pray that they are alive,” said Nettleton. “But we know it is possible that they have finished their race on earth and gone on to their eternal reward in heaven. We encourage Christians everywhere to pray for our brothers and sisters in North Korea, who must constantly face the threat of arrest, torture and execution simply for living out their faith in Jesus Christ.”
Psalm 72
A Prayer for the King
God, give Your justice to the king
and Your righteousness to the king's son.
He will judge Your people with righteousness
and Your afflicted ones with justice.
May the mountains bring prosperity to the people,
and the hills, righteousness.
May he vindicate the afflicted among the people,
help the poor, and crush the oppressor.
May he continue while the sun endures,
and as long as the moon, throughout all generations.
