When we ask, He speaks: Korea's Destiny

When we were on our walk last week, we were asking God to speak to us what He thinks and feels about Korea and the people affected by the sex industry. He is so faithful to answer when we ask Him! How blessed are we that we can so intimately hear the voice of such a powerful and awesome God. I am humbled every time.

During the walk, as I was asking Him to speak to me, I heard Him so clearly in my spirit and I was deeply stirred.
He spoke to me that this nation is like a young child....a child who wants to eat only candy for dinner. This child thinks that candy is his greatest desire and thinks that eating it for dinner will be ok. But he doesn't realize that if he does eat it, it will make him sick and he will regret it.  Right now this nation is like a young, immature child who doesn't understand the consequences of her actions. Korea is "eating her candy for dinner" and is not yet aware that soon she will become sick and will regret her decision. Right now, sex and pleasure is her "candy" and she thinks that there will be no consequences to enjoying something that is so satisfying.

But He also said "But I still have a destiny for them! Pray them into their destiny!" A parent prays for their child to grow up to be a godly man or woman and asks God to give them all of His best. In this same way, God stirred in my spirit that we need to pray for Korea's destiny (and for each individual that is involved in the sex industry). We need to pray that she would "grow up" to be a righteous nation, to fear and love the Lord, to walk in the path that He has set for her.

We have a choice! We can watch as Korea and her people lead themselves into destruction, sickness and regret. Or we can pray that they would walk into the amazing destiny that God has for them. This is an hour in which we get to play a key role in the history of this nation.  I feel so strongly in my spirit that NOW is the time when history is being written, and we can let it continue on its current path, or we can change it. As intercessors and followers of Jesus, this is what we do! We cry out for the nations. We stand in the gap. We proclaim the truth. "PRAY THEM INTO THEIR DESTINY!"

Psalm 2: 8...Ask of Me, and I will surely give the nations as Your inheritance, and the very ends of the earth as Your possession.

Let us continue to stand in the gap and cry out for mercy, justice and righteousness! Surely, in His goodness He will respond!

Thank You

We want to extend a big thank you to everyone who is supporting us and praying for us! Our prayer walk this Friday was amazing and we felt all of your prayers!

The Lord's presence was strong during our prayer time together and our walk on the streets was full of revelation, divine leading and divine appointments. There was so much team unity and the atmosphere was lighter. We will be posting some more specific testimonies shortly.

We couldn't do this without you, so thank you for your continued support and prayer covering. We are changing the course of this nation. We are changing the course of this nation!! We are claiming that truth as ours.

For His Glory,
Unearthed Team

Friday Aug. 20 Walk

We are headed back to the streets to do a prayer walk. We would love for you to join us in prayer as we go out.

The Lord has pressed on our hearts the absolute necessity to have faithful intercessors to cover us as we walk into the midst of heavy darkness. The enemy has a strong grip over this nation right now, but our prayers are mighty and our God is great! We are desperate for you to join us in prayer and fasting, before and during our prayer walk.

DETAILS: (SEOUL time)     Friday, Aug. 20th. 11 pm - 2 am
(USA time- CST) Friday, Aug. 20th. 9 am-12 noon

Prayer Points:
- Team Unity and closeness
- God to lead us where to go, what/who to pray for while we are walking
- Focus! It's easy to get distracted when there is so much visual stimulation around with lights and people, but we want to be focused and spiritually in tune to the movings of Holy Spirit
- Protection, physical and spiritual. It's late at night, its sin and darkness, we need the Lord's hand upon us.

More updates and testimonies to come after the walk! Thank you faithful intercessors.

The Lord's Leadership

As you may have noticed, we've had a lack of postings and updates lately.  Many of our members recently went on amazing mission trips and vacations all around Asia, and we have also felt a leading from the Lord to seek Him in prayer about details of the ministry.

We have many questions about when, where, how, how often...honestly, at times it is kind of frustrating to still not know.  But, as I was thinking about all of these questions this past weekend, I suddenly became aware of how thankful I am that God is the one who is leading it all. Though I may stress and worry over these logistical things, I am certain that the Lord, in His perfect leadership, has everything in His control and He is faithful to reveal answers to us in His perfect timing. Knowing that I don't have to try to figure it out all on my own is such a relief and it fills me with gratitude.

While eating brunch with another sister in the group, she shared with me something a woman told her while she was on a mission trip a few weeks ago. The woman lives with her husband and children in a foreign country as missionaries and she often questions if they are doing the right thing, or what should they be doing next, etc. She said that her husband often reminds her to "go back to the last thing the Lord said to them" and stay there until He says something different.  Such refreshing wisdom! As we question things in Unearthed, we just have to go back to the last thing God said, and rest there. The last thing He said was "pray".  So that is what we will do. We will pray and we will trust in His leadership.

With that said...we are waiting on Him for more concrete details. We would love for you to join with us in praying for His wisdom and His revelation about our next steps as a ministry.
