Please pray.
Fraud occurred in the South Korean election, but the government is not investigating. Pray that the government will investigate and punish those who cheated.
Urgent Prayer: The president of South Korea is trying to uncover fraudulent elections. Members of the opposition National Assembly, who were elected in a fraudulent election, want to impeach the president. Pray that the president of South Korea will not be impeached. The forces behind the fraudulent election are from the Chinese Communist Party, North Korea, and the Communist Party in South Korea. Pray that those responsible for the election fraud will be found and punished. Pray that there will be no bloodshed in South Korea. Pray that Satan and the evil spirits controlling them will be bound.

Lily

Lily (Heb. shûshân, shôshannâh). Although there is little doubt that the Hebrew word denotes some plant of the lily species, it is by no means certain what individual of this class it specially designates. The plant must have been a conspicuous object on the shores of the Lake of Gennesaret, Matt. 6:28; Luke 12:27; it must have flourished in the deep broad valleys of Palestine, Song. 2:1, among the thorny shrubs, Song. 2:2, and pastures of the desert, Song. 2:16; 4:5; 6:3; and must have been remarkable for its rapid and luxuriant growth. Hos. 14:5; Ecclus. 39:14. That its flowers were brilliant in color would seem to be indicated in Matt. 6:28, where it is compared with the gorgeous robes of Solomon; and that this color was scarlet or purple is implied in Song. 5:13. There appears to be no species of lily which so completely answers all these requirements as the Lilium chalcedonicum, or scarlet martagon, which grows in profusion in the Levant. But direct evidence on the point is still to be desired from the observation of travellers. (It is very probable that the term lily here is general, not referring to any particular species, but to a large class of flowers growing in Palestine, and resembling the lily, as the tulip, iris, gladiolus, etc.—Ed.)
