Iran on Monday trumpeted the issuing of death sentences to several members of what it claims is a CIA spy ring that had been embedded in “sensitive” departments nationwide, a development that threatened to further inflame an already precarious staredown between the Islamic Republic and the United States.

The roundup of the alleged espionage cell ensnared 17 people during the past several months and was completed by the end of March, an Iranian official said at a news conference in Tehran. The official was identified only as the director of the counterespionage department of Iran’s Intelligence Ministry, which is highly unusual in Iran, as officials usually identify themselves at press conferences.

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, while not commenting directly on the spy report, advised caution and noted Iran has a history of lying.

“I can’t add much to it specifically,” Pompeo told “Fox & Friends” on Monday morning. “I would urge everyone who’s reading that story that the Iranian regime has a long history of lying. They lied about where they shot down the American UAV, they now lied about where they took down this tanker. It’s part of the nature of the Ayatollah to lie to the world. I would take with a significant grain of salt any Iranian assertion of Iranian actions taken. ”

Our newest resource is a fully updated prayer calendar, 31 Days of Strategic Intercession for the Nation. Praying through this, you will cover all the critical leaders.

Chess Match with Iran: An IFA Special Report Prayer Guide describes the military leaders of the U.S. and Iran. It is eye-opening to read about their leaders and discern how to pray effectively for this tenuous situation.

We also have a wonderful prayer guide bookmark based on Psalm 91. Written by a retired Army General, Prayer Guide for Military and Military Families is a great way to pray protection and blessing for those who are in harm’s way and sacrificing for the good of our nation.

The U.S. has increased its military presence in the Persian Gulf region in recent weeks after it alleged provocative moves by Tehran that included attacks on two oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, the downing of a U.S. drone and the seizure of a British tanker. (Excerpt from Fox News.)

Heavenly Father, Again I ask for You to reveal the Truth about this situation. If members of the CIA
have been arrested, I ask for their protection as they seek to do their jobs. Father, give wisdom to the leaders of the CIA and other government officials on how to handle this. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen

Father, an enemy within is always a danger. We know they are in our country too. Your divine watchfulness and care is our greatest treasure. Thank You for loving us in spite the enemy within our country and ourselves. Show us step-by-step how to come back to You–Truth, Wisdom, Love and so much more. We have lost our way in rhetoric and ideology not of You. Help usA to listen to You and obey. We recognize we are lost without You.

Teach us to pray, Lord. There is power in the blood of Jesus, and as a born again believer I want to prayerfully apply it to destroy the weapons of the enemy of our souls, satan himself. I pray for Iranian believers to come together in prayer to defeat satans control of their leaders in government. I pray that they will know that you are God and there is no other. Teach your Church worldwide how to repent and turn to you and to humble ourselves and pray and turn from our wicked ways so you will hear from heaven and forgive our sins and heal our land as you promised in your Word
