Prayer request thread.

[BabyCurls]

I really want to do the right things this year, and one of which is searching for employment. I'm also on the journey to lose weight and being a healthy person.

I want to continue to be there for my mom and my siblings. Finally, my heart is aching to the point that I want to destroy all the junk that's cluttered inside, and make it more pure and flawless.

I need prayer for my requests, my sisters. As I post this, I'm crying because I'm ready for a total spiritual makeover. Please, be praying for me and for my family. God Bless each and every one of you.

[Koffie]

The last thread we had was lost in the process of bringing it over to this thread, so we'll start a new one. Thanks Bev, for saving the orignal text of that thread. :)
___________________

There are a lot of our sisters on the LHCF that are in need of prayer. God laid upon my heart the desire to pray for my LHCF sisters on this year. I meant to post this earlier, but I got sidetracked. If I can find just one prayer warrior who will pray with me in agreement for God to change these circumstances, in the name of Jesus, I assure you that we can see miracles happen. If I find more than one willing sister, we can send the devil running away screaming in agony! Oh, how he HATES when we come together in agreement for God's promises!

We have sisters who are:
- suffering from depression,
-they need jobs
-their finances are a mess
-their husbands are acting up
-their children are acting up
-their bodies are afflicted with sickness and disease
-some of our sisters cannot conceive and desparately need God to move
-some of us will receive negative reports from the doctor on this year. Are we going to accept that it's over for us? Or will we take it to the Doctor of doctors for His final diagnosis?
-many of our sisters need to be married, but the men are nowhere to be found. I'm believing God that this year, many of our LHCF sisters will meet their life partners. If you thought there was no hope, I've got news for ya! I've been praying on it, and I KNOW it will come to pass. :yay:
-and the list of situations that need prayer goes on and on...

We can pray for God to change these situations. Those who pray faithfully know the POWER of prayer. Towards the end of last year, I saw God work some mighty miracles, and I know that He wants to bless those who believe that He can do the things we ask of Him.

So pray with me. All those who have prayer requests, just add on to this thread. I'll write down your request and take it to God in prayer. Those who are of a heart to do the same, please do! God will bless you for it. For as you raise others in prayer, God will handle your business for you too! That's how our Father works! He blesses us as we are a blessing to others around us.

I'll be patiently waiting for a praise report so that I can sing and shout about the goodness of God. :)

The desire you have to remove things that have kept you bound is God calling you to a higher level in your spiritual walk with HIM! PRAISE HIM!!

Seek God diligently, and myself and the other prayer warriors here who want to pray will pray in agreement with you for God to meet you right where you need HIM. It's all going to be all right. Be blessed, sis. :rosebud:

[Dolce_Dawn]

Everyone, pls pray for me. I find myself tangled in a huge ordeal that is truly demonic and I need it to be resolved quickly and in my favor. It involves some deceitful people who are not only lying against me, but are trying to confuse the situation w/a bunch of double talk and don't care one hill of beans about me AT ALL. I paid them for a service and they have yet to be accommodating about delivering on that service to my total satisfaction. So, this ordeal involves a large amt of money, too. All out of pocket.

So pls pray for me.

Sweetie, I will pray for you. God can open doors that are closed, and close doors that are open. Whatever you do, don't lose heart. Pray even more, asking our FATHER for exactly what you need. Be specific in your prayers, and be dilligent. I've seen God step into situations that looked like all hope was lost, and He worked a mighty miracle. I'll be on my knees praying for you. :rosebud:

Thx, Pebbles! I needed to hear that...:)

[Poohbear]

Please pray that I get over this flu sickness... I've been having chills/fever, sore throat, inflammed tonsils, coughing up phelgm, blowing my nose, and sinus pressure.

Also pray for my sister who is in school while she is away from her son that she had this summer before she went off to school. She has been feeling depressed because she doesn't get to see her son much and her son's father is a dead beat dad.

Also pray for my church family that it will grow and thrive.

Lastly, pray for my ex-boyfriend. He's had a rough life losing both of his parents at a young age. Pray that he will be able to do the things he would like to do such as getting back into school, getting his car fixed, etc. Also pray for his family.

[mrsjones1]

Ladies

Also things are not going well in the reproductive area either please pray for that as well.

Thank you all and God Bless

[DisOui33]

Can someone please pray for me. At first I was really hesitant in writing this, but I just need some help to see me through. I'm becoming depressed over everything...I'm at the point where I'm constantly saying I hate my life. :nono: I just need prayer to get over this, because I know this will pass. I also would like to ask for prayer for me and my relationships with people. I just want them to be sincere and true. I'm tired of being tired. :ohwell: Thanks in advance for your prayers.

Be healed, sister, In Jesus' name! I'm praying for your sister, that the spirit of depression not overtake her. Please tell her to take heart. She's in school, and her son is safe with family. This is temporary, and her sacrifice of going off to school and get an education will benefit her son tomorrow. I pray that the angels of the Lord will minister to her right where she is and lift up her spirit. I know a thing or two about dead beat dads since my children have a big one, but God is faithful to make a way for those children, and for that I PRAISE HIM!

I will pray for spiritual, and financial increase for your church, that GOD would bring committed members to that ministry and cause it to grow and affect change in your area.

Lastly, it's difficult enough to lose one parent when your young, but to lose both is an incredibly difficult thing. We'll pray against the spirit of depression in his life. We will pray that God takes him to a place of understanding that as difficult as things are for him right now, nothing is impossible with God. He needs to look up to the Father and focus on what the Lord wants for him. Great men of God have come out of some of the most desperate situations imaginable. Be blessed! :rosebud:

It's done. God will make a special way for you, so that the work of the ministry not suffer while you work to help support your family. 1 John 5:4 says: "Whatever is born of God overcomes the world, and this is the victory that overcomes the world, our faith."

Ministry is a difficult thing, but God makes a special way for those He calls to that life. In faith we'll pray, and in faith we'll believe that God is going to manifest His glory mightily in your situation.

Finally, I curse the spirit of barreness to it's very roots, and declare you healed and made whole, In Jesus' name. Lay hands on yourself and speak life over your womb. It's all done, and I pray in agreement with you that God will move on your behalf. Kingdom of God come, Will of God be done, in Jesus' name. Be blessed! :rosebud:

Sis, your very brief post spoke to me, because it reminded me that I was bound in despair for years, to the point of suicide. I hated my life, I hated myself, and I couldn't understand the point of me living. I wasn't going to churchand I wasn't praying. I didn't see the point, because I was convinced that God wouldn't hear me, and if He could, He didn't care.

My experience with depression is that the enemy has a habit of magnifying the areas of our life where we aren't successful, and he convinces us of what a complete and total failure we are. And don't be fooled. The devil starts off softly and slowly with his lies, then gradually gains momentum with his message to you.

"You're not doing anything that matters to anyone. No-one is ever going to love you, look at you? You're such a mess that God can't use you. Even your kids don't need you. Face it, you were a mistake, and it's better to exit this world. This life just isn't worth living. Why do you bother? Don't even try to pray. You know that doesn't work. And the church can't help you."

I spent years hearing these messages playing in my head. I got to the point that I couldn't be around people. I isolated myself from everyone. I was in tears constantly. The trick of the devil is to get you on your own, to talk to you and have no-one opposing the messages he puts in your mind, then he wins. But my mother was praying for me. Even when her words couldn't reach me, her prayers reached God, and He heard her cry for me.

I'm going to do the same for you. You are not alone, and thank God that you posted this. The Lord wants you to know that you are not alone, and no matter what you see happening around you, hold on tighter to Him. In the midst of it all, He's there, and He will see you through.

Read this thread about people coming into your life. I wish this was around when I was having a difficult time with relationships in my life. http://www.longhaircareforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=50389

Finally, let me leave you with this passage. Be blessed, sweetie! :kiss:

Jeremiah 29:11-13
" For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD , "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."

[soontobenatural]

Hi ladies,

I am so thankful for this for this forum!

I have been "going to" church all of my life, but last year I found a wonderful, spirit-led church that I joined in October, and was baptized in November. My need for prayer revolves around the fact that being a babe in Christ, I don't feel that I know how to pray. Whenever I start praying, my mind wanders and I start thinking about all kinds of things that have nothing to do with the Lord - do I need to wash clothes?, what's going on at work?, etc. Everything except the Lord! Can some of you ladies maybe start a thread on prayer? Or a New Christian 101 thread? Any thing that will help me out and anybody else that may need help.

I also need prayer that I will stay strong in my marriage, and be the virtuous woman of God that I want and need to be.

Peace....

[natalied]

Hey STN,

What helps me is that I try to "talk" to God instead of a saying a "formal" prayer. Just like if I was talking to my earthly parents, except with more reverance. My thought wander sometimes too esp. when I'm reading the Bible.:( I"m still working on that through God's grace! You are in my prayers my sister!:kiss:

Here's a website on how to pray that you might find useful:

Thank you very much for everything that you said, and the link that you posted. The link definately made me cry. It just...spoke to me. It's kind of funny, me and my mother were talking yesterday and she was telling me that I need to make prayer a daily part of my life. She also told me God had given all these tools for us to use, but a lot of us aren't using them. I'm working on that.

Sis, your very brief post spoke to me, because it reminded me that I was bound in despair for years, to the point of suicide.

Prayer request for healing and restoration:

I do believe that by His stripes I am healed. The bible says that one can chase 1000, but 2 can put 10000 demons to flight. Something happened Wed night at church and I am struggling to use my right hand..which I use for almost everything. I just need someone to agree as touching so that my healing will manifest in the flesh...My hand is already better...at least now I can open the door...etc. Just having trouble writing, typing, etc...

thanks in advance to you all and our Lord and Savior!!! :)

Hello everyone.


I would like to ask for your prayers for my family. We really need to refinance our home and get a fixed interest rate. The circumstances are bleak right now because the property values in our area are going down for some reason and the appraisal is not coming up at enough. I ask for your prayers that God will make a way because I have seen Him make a way out of no way many times. Thanks for all of your support. All of you ladies continue to be in my prayers. :)

[Amarachi]

I too stand in the need of prayer. I am currently unemployed and have been cut off of my insurance. I have a condition that warrants use of medication. While it would be good to get a job that offers excellent benefits, I come before you to ask for your touching and agreeing with me that the Lord heals my body completely so that medication is no longer needed. In addition, I would like your prayers that I find an excellent, fulfilling position before I graduate from school this coming May.

I am so sorry, Kei. I pray that GOD blows a wind of comfort over you, her husband, and your entire congregation. Take comfort that she was a woman of GOD and she will go to heaven. Thank God for the time He blessed you to have her in your life. Death is not the end, but the separation of body and spirit. Psalm 116:15 says: "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints." She went on home to glory to be with her heavenly Father, and we know that you will see her again.

Please pray for my 19 year old brother....

he has been living with me for free for three months. he owes me over $1,000 in rent, bills, and groceries. he just started getting back on his feet until he got pulled over by 4 police one night when he was hanging with his white friends. They charged him with wreckless driving and attempted assault of an officer by using his car as a weapon (ITS A LONG STORY). He'll have points on his liscense which means his insurance will go up and he'll have to pay court costs and lawyer cost in order to keep his driver's liscense. So please pray for our financial circumstances right now.

What a difficult situation. I will pray that God blesses you and keeps you during this difficult time. I pray that He brings financial increase to you to help you carry your responsibilities.

Absolutely! The one thing that I do know is that as you seek a closer, more pure walk with Jesus, the enemy will throw obsticles in your way like never before. But stand firm! Let me leave you with this quote: :kiss:

"For you have spent enough time in the past doing what pagans choose to do–living in debauchery, lust, drunkenness, orgies, carousing and detestable idolatry. They think it strange that you do not plunge with them into the same flood of dissipation, and they heap abuse on you. But they will have to give account to HIM who is ready to judge the living and the dead."-1 Peter 4:3-5

[nicki23]

Please pray for my friend. He's going through a very rough time right now with child custody issues, divorce, and loss of a job. He has been talking about taking his life. I know that God has a great plan for his life and the devil is seeking to destroy him. I don't know what to say to my friend, but I have been praying that God will give him comfort and peace and help him to see his way out of his current circumstance.

I decided at the turn of the year, this was going to be my year of making a difference in my life where it came to my work situation. I'm very much tired of working for other people and feel now is the time to branch out and set up business for myself.

Anyway. I'm applying for VAT (tax) registration today, and then once that's through I'm applying for a business account with one of the largest distributors in the country. Ladies please pray for me that my application is accepted. Only the Lord knows how many trials and errors I've done when it comes to business now I finally found the opportunity and feel this can be my ticket out of the corporate world.

Thanks so much in advance.

[pebbles]

Please pray for my friend. He's going through a very rough time right now with child custody issues, divorce, and loss of a job. He has been talking about taking his life. I know that God has a great plan for his life and the devil is seeking to destroy him. I don't know what to say to my friend, but I have been praying that God will give him comfort and peace and help him to see his way out of his current circumstance.

I will pray that God reveals to him a direction for his life. Is he a believer? If so, he needs to be in church where the saints can lay hands on him and pray him through this difficult time. Talks of suicide should not be taken lightly. Be blessed! :rosebud:

[PoeticJustice]

I'd like to ask all the ladies of the board who are prayer warriors to lift my son up in prayer. On Wed. he had to have emergency surgery on his intestines. His small intestine had just about lost all circulation and if he had not had surgery he would not have made it. He is stabilized and in ICU. The setbacks that have come our way since his suregery (infection, lost of blood during surgery and having to have a blood transfusion, high fever, swelling, etc) he's still a fighter and holding on. I just ask for you to lift him up. I believe he is already healed and all is well. And I thank you all in advance for covering him. He's 20 months old (will be 2 in June) and his name is Jabari.

God bless!

[pebbles]

I will lift Jabari and your entire family up in prayer, Justicewifey. Pray and believe that God has healed him, as will I. Be blessed and at peace, sis. :rosebud:

Thank you very much for your prayers, I appreciate that so much! God bless.

Thanks Pebbles. I don't what kind of praying you've been doing, but I got some good news that a co-worker i'm none to fond of is moving depts in 3 weeks and it's totally lifted my spirits which was actually having a hand in how much longer I could stand here. He's very negative and it was a affecting my moods daily where I had to take a day off just to avoid him. It doesn't mean I'm not going to pursue my business, but less bad thoughts about this particular person are going through my head. I guess he does work in mysterious ways. :grin:

I'm so freakin happy :clap: I haven't been this happy in weeks.

[pebbles]

That is wonderful! :clap: You know, it's good that he's being moved out of the way. Release any bad feelings you have for him. That way, God can move mightily in your life and bless you as you wouldn't believe. :)

Hello everybody!

It was truly a blessing to read this thread, all the requests and all the answered prayers. If this doesn't keep you encouraged in your walk with Christ, I don't know what will.

I just request that you pray for my hubby who is currently in Paris for business. I am asking the Lord for traveling mercies for my spouse. BC, my hubby, loves the Lord with all his heart and I know the Lord is with him. But the Lord says, "Where two are gather together in agreement, I am in the midst." So, having others praying along in agreement is a good feeling.

I must admit, God is very good to this family and He never fails to answer our prayers one way or the other. Even if he didn't, I would still love him will all my mind, heart, and soul. He's a good God and he deserves all I can give him even if he didn't give me anything else.

Stay encouraged ladies, this life is but a vapor, it won't last forever so give God your best while you can. Keep me in prayer and I will do the same for you. Take care :kiss:

[ThickHair]

A former friend just called to let me know her mother was in intensive care. Please pray for her family.

ETA: She passed away this morning 3/9/05.

[honeylove316]

Please pray for me to have the courage and drive to do what I feel God has called me to do with my life. Please pray that my path is made clear. I have fought this for a long while and I know I need to do it, it is a gift that comes easily to me but I have been immobilized by fear of failure(or maybe fear of success, I don't know). I need to take that step, the first step being the hardest and most humbling- it will be a long and hard road, but it will be the best thing I've ever done. Be blessed.

[Poohbear]

Now I'm asking for another special prayer for my sister. I love her dearly and she's still having lots of problems... school, stress, guys, missing her son, and being sexually active. She's 18 and had her son right before she went into her freshman year in college. She's going into pharmacy. Last semester, she failed two classes and she's still struggling right now. She called me yesterday crying for help because she wants to change. I was glad to hear that because I felt like she was going down hill when she would tell me about guys she would have sex with that she wasn't even in a relationship with (even though that doesn't matter because it's wrong to do it before you're married). Please pray that she will be strong through her journey through college and let her know that she does not have to feel lonely if she allows Christ back into her heart. It seems like she strayed away from Him ever since she starting messing with this guy for over a year (her son's father) and he does nothing for their son. Throughout their relationship, he cheated on her constantly and never did anything for her. Also pray for her to have a clear mind, start respecting her body, and to raise her self-esteem to feel like she is worth something. Thank you.

[phynestone]

Hello ladies. This past year has been something else for me. Despite the highs my family and I have encountered, there have been tremendous lows. My mother has been working herself to death for so long now, trying to make ends meet and I'm so worried about her health right now. She told me a few months ago that I was her best friend and we are like sisters to each other, only born quite a few years apart. I just worry so much about her. Please pray for her. Also, I need prayer for my relationship with Him right now. I was saved a few weeks ago and it's almost as if the devil is trying to throw all these obstacles in my way, trying to make things extremely difficult for me. I broke things off with my bf and I'm about to go crazy with everything that's been going on with me. Being on this board calms me down and I love listening to what everyone has to say here. Will everyone please pray for my mental and spiritual health, along with my mother's. I know God has already taken care of it and everyone else's problems as well.

[MSee]

Hi all,

I truly am in need of your prayers for my familly. One of my sisters and her husband just lost a baby (miscarriage) last week and my grandfather died this week.

There is also some spiritual warefare that is going on in my life. Has anyone ever experienced night presses (thats the best way I know how to describe it). I've experienced these and would like prayer against them and if anyone know anything about these things please PM me.

I've decided to truly seek after God last year but it just seems like things have been thrown in my way to divert my attention, to the extent that I just feel overwhelmed most of the time. Please pray that I get my act together.

I also have to confront my boss today about an issue and I would like your support in prayer, please.

Thank you all. Thank God for you all.

Please know that God has not given you a spirit of fear. I find that the enemy really suppresses those who can bless others with the talents God gave them.
Proverbs 21:30 says "Commit your works to the Lord, and your plans shall succeed." I will pray that God strengthens you to move forward in what He would have you do. Be blessed! :rosebud:

Let's pray that God touches your sister's heart with the need to draw closer to Him. There are some situations that are too difficult to make it alone, and this is one of them. Let's pray that the Holy Spirit convicts your sister about certain things going on in her life. Only the Lord can change hearts. She seems to be battling depression, and I think we need to rebuke the enemy who is working overtime in her life. We should also pray that this young man is moved out of her life. He is a stumbling block for her. We will pray, asking and believing that God will move in her life, in Jesus' name. Be blessed! :rosebud:

Stand bold! As a new creation in Christ, please know that the enemy will seek to discourage the most by throwing obstacles of all kinds in your way. But be firm in your convictions. No matter what you see happening around you, God is still in control. Know it and believe it! I will pray for God to extend His hand of healing over your mother, that He may bless her financially, and I pray that you stay anchored in Jesus. Don't let anything shake your faith. You are being tested, sis. I'll keep praying for you. Blessings, sweetie! :kiss:

I can't say that I really know what night presses are. Is it being asleep and feeling that someone is pressing you into the mattress? That happened to me once many years ago, and I started praying Psalm 23, and half way through the psalm, that evil spirit had to release me. I felt as if I were being smothered. Memorize Psalm 54. There are other very good Psalms as well, but this one stands out in my mind. Years later, I now sleep with my bible open to different Psalms nightly on my nightstand or on my bed with me. It's a habit my mother has always had, and I picked it up late in life. :lol:

May God comfort your sister and her husband, and your entire family during this very difficult time. My sister also recently had a miscarriage, and it was devastating. And a death in the family just makes it even harder to deal with, but God is able to heal all hurts.

I will pray that God strengthens you in your walk with Him. Pray and read the word daily. This is vital to your walk with the Lord. Keep your focus on Jesus always, no matter how difficult things may get. Have faith that God is able to see you through. Be blessed, hon! :rosebud:

Please pray for me I feel like I am under attack. I feel so confused and unfocused. I'm praising and praying constantly,but I still can't seem to shake these negative feelings. My mind is running 100 mph. I have these feelings that no one loves me and I'm a failure and my life is never gonna get better. Everytime I make a connection with God there is this horrible force trying to pull me away. It's like I'm up one minute down the next. I know I am annointed and I have power, but right now I just feel weak. Please Pray for me! I need my mind to be freed! I hope I have made sense, it was a struggle to type this.

I completely understand. It is a trick of the enemy, make no mistake. You are involved in a spiritual warfare. When you are praising and praying you are on the right track, but you also make yourself a target of the devil. Remember, he doesn't care to see you advance in your walk with Christ. Stand bold, my sister! I will pray that the Lord silences the voice of the devil in your mind who is trying to bring you down with these negative thoughts. You are an overcomer. Be blessed, sweetie! :kiss:

Been there and still walking through. I certainly will be praying for you and hope you'll do the same for me. I can tell you of 2 messages that were sent to me as I go through the same thing your experiencing.
*Satans most common battlefield is your mind.
*Check your thoughts with the Word of God. If you're like me you will find that you are thinking more of yourself and situation rather than God and His provision.

Although I feel like I know what to do, there are days that I still feel like I'm going under. But one thing I've been telling myself that would probably help you, is that my feelings may be convincing but only God's word is truth and that is what I'll believe. I don't know you personally but I love you because you are God's perfect creation. Girl you even look like your Heavenly Daddy (we were all made in His image and likeness). I can also tell you that you must be destined because the enemy doesn't fight dead soldiers. One of my favorite verses says something like this "Be not weary in well doing, for in due season you shall reap if you faint not"

Thank you Millie.....I will be praying for you as well. What you said about me thinking more about myself and situation is right on point! I had to check myself today beacuse it seems like everyone around me is getting good news and positive things are happening for them and they're not even trying to do right, but I feel like I'm getting nothing and going no where. I immediately began to praise God to remove that demon from my mind. It gets hard at times, but becuse I know where my help and strength come from I know I can make it. It's good to know I'm not in this fight alone. Let's continue to pray for each other. God is too good for us not to press foward. I love you and don't ever give up! :) :)

Pleas pray for my SO. He has been trying to get a job and has been having the hardest time.

The reason it is so hard is because he is a student and goes to church on Fridays and Saturdays (as per his religion) and the places where most student get part-time jobs is retail and restaurants, many of which don't want to hire him because Fridays and Saturdays are their busiest days.

He is starting to get very frustrated.

I posted a couple of weeks ago about me being under attack. I just ask that you continue to pray with me and for me. As soon as I start to see things a little clearer and get my head together to move forward I get hit with another brick.....my car was reposessed this morning. That worst part of all is that it was in my dad's name. I feel so bad and I was trying really hard to prevent this from happening. I really don't want him to hate me.....we just re-united in the last couple of years (parents couldn't get along). I need strength to endure this....please pray for me. I know this is only a test.

Thank you!!!!!

[Camille]

I can't really talk about it, but I'm going through something that is draining me mentally. Please please pray for me.

[oglorious1]

Update on my test results, I missed it by TWO points, so please continue to pray, that I get the 220 points I need....

[brownsugarbabe]

Please pray for my dad.

He had surgery about 14 days ago to repair an aortic distention (sp)-this is the condition that killed John Ritter.

He's had complication ever since. First he had Heparin-Induced Thrombocytopenia, which is a rare allergic reaction to the Heparin-this is given to patients to thin out their blood after sugery. This condition caused his palettes to go down to 7 (normal is 150,000). Palettes are what help your blood clot so you don't bleed to death. He's getting bad circulation and his right foot, left toes and right thumb will need to be amputated.

We learned after his cat scan on Friday that he has suffered a stroke and that's the reason why he not responding to any stimuli.

I'm asking for prayers for his health...but mostly for prayers that he not be scared. I'm in Illinois and he's in Florida and the nearest family memer is 4 hours away and elderly. I went to visit him this weekend and I'm going to go back as soon as I can.

I know he's still with us because when I talked to him...tears well up in his eyes. I told him not to be scared, just concentrate on getting better.

[PaperDoll]

Someone please pray for me.

My job situation is out of control right now.

Long story short, I found a listing for my position on my boss's desk and on several job sites.

Eventually my boss decided to tell me about her search for my replacement.

She said it was because she needed someone full-time (I work 4 days of the week) but after talking with the only other person that works here, I know that's not the truth.

Yesterday I had to sit here while she and the other person interviewed someone and act as if nothing was wrong. I am fielding calls/emails and faxes from people applying for *MY* job.

It's disheartening, discouraging, depressing and rude.

On top of that I am desperately searching for a new job so that I am not left unemployed once she finds someone. I have too many bills to be unemployed.

I fear that I will not be able to draw unemployment either because technically I am considered self-employed ( a long drawn out story).

Will you guys help me pray that my job search will be fruitful, that I find a new position immediately, in my chosen career field(s), with my desired salary?

I sent out resumes last week and have heard nothing. A friend put me in touch with someone at another comapny but when I went in for an informal interview, I realized the person was more interesed in making new "friends" (if you catch my drift) than helping me find a new job.

I just sent my resume to another contact I have and I'm hoping something comes of this. I will also continue to send out resumes.

Just please pray for me. I'm so discouraged, stressed, confused and worried.

Sorry this was so long.

Thank you.:)

Not 5 minutes after I posted this did I get a call from a person I've worked with previously. I'd sent him my resume right before posting this and he called me back and I have an interview Monday!
GOD IS SO GOOD!



Okay y'all pray my interview goes well! :lol:

Please pray for me and my mom...

I am new to the site and I just wanted to share my testimony and ask for prayer requests:

I am from Texas and have been living in Pennsylvania for almost 6 yrs now (this includes 4 years in college). My dad passed away (he was 53) in October and since January I have been financially supporting my mom (who is still in Texas). Although I am not the only child (I have two older brothers- 38yrs. old and 37 yrs. old), I am the only one helping because I have the best job, no children, youngest (I am 25), etc. My brothers have tried to use my mom financially, not HELP her (one of my brothers "borrowed 2,000 from her in January and has yet to pay her back).

Along with my rent (over 750 per month), my utilities, car payment, insurance and student loans, I am also sending my mom money weekly just to get her through. I can only afford to send about $950 per month and that's not enough for her to live on and her house note. To "remy" this, I have recently gotten a part time job to help raise money for my mom's mortgage. So I am working from 7-3 at a pharmaceutical company as a scientist and from 4-10 at a hospital. But God is so good! Even though I have been doing this, God has been holding me up through all of it. Through the 16 hour days and applying to medical school, God has given me strength that I did not know I had in me. He gave me a great boyfriend who is also helping out financially and has no qualms about it. In fact, he urges me to be there for my mom. I know that God will continue to be there for my mom and me, but I need prayers.

Right now she is searching for a job and I know that she will get one. Just wanted to share my testimony and praise God! If yall could, please pray that she can get a job and help pay her bills. I am scared that our house might be foreclosed but I do have faith.

Thank you!

I am asking prayer for a friend of mine. She quit her job a few months ago and started working for a temp agency. Well that job has ended and now she is six weeks behind in her rent. Her landlord told her to be out of his house by the first of julyI want to tell her to come stay with me, but I'm trying to move soon myself and I also live about fifty miles away from her. She is a single mother with a six year old son. She is also attending school. She is feeling really down and worthless right now. Please remember her in your prayers. Her name is Rose.

In Jesus' name, Amen.

Ladies,

I am asking for a prayer this morning. I have been really stressed over a matter at my job. I love my job, love what I do, but I have been dealing with some major issues here for over a year. I was out yesterday, came to work to be greeted by a bunch of nasty emails.

Please pray; I'm at my wit's end and I'm stressing right now.

Thank you, Lord. Amen.

[Poohbear]

Please pray for me as I get through this International Politcal Economics class. This class is very vague and the instructor isn't a very good teacher. He's very conceited and always brags about how knowledgeable he is but can't teach a lick. I only have 4 more days with him and my grade in the class is not looking very good at all. Please pray that I at least get a C+ in his class. I hate anything below a B with a passion, but that grade is all I can hope for right now after he threw a very hard test on us Thursday afternoon. :(

[webby]

I wanted to take a moment to thank you for your prayers. I am continuing to stay in prayer, fighting depression as I type, but I would be remiss if I didn't take a moment to acknowledge you all for your prayers.

Thank you so much!

I would like to request prayer from you ladies in the Christian Forum.

I am having a lot of problems with my boyfriend of over 2 years. Please pray that God's will for my life be done. I would like the relationship to work out, and my boyfriend is literally on the CUSP of being saved. (And you know how Satan attacks this). I have spoken to my pastor about the situation and He advised me to fast and pray and then fast and pray some more. I'm doing just that. Please join me in prayer. I thought this would be the man I would marry someday.

Also, I am requesting prayer for my mother's finances. We are having a hard time keeping everything paid since my dad died last fall and she is not working right now. I am helping her out financially and trying to help myself.

Thank you for your prayers. I know that God hears us so I will reply back with the outcomes. Because I still believe in miracles! :)

[legs71]

I'm a bit hesitant in asking for prayer because I have been blessed many times over. I feel there are people out there in dire need of prayer in comparison to my issues.


My life isn't horrible, but it seems as if my blessings are being blocked and my life has come to a complete standstill. My life is just one steady boring rhythm. Nothing to look forward to and it seems the closer I get to the "prize" God pulls it back even further out of reach.


I pray constantly and it seems nothing changes. For starters, I truly believe the devil has a foothold on my love life. Last year my 6 year relationship ended in chaos and since then it's as if God is testing me or the devil has taken over because I get the worse of the worse. I've literally given up meeting men. It doesn't help that here I am a year later after my breakup feeling as if it just happened yesterday.

Also, I am going through job issues. I do not like my job/position because I am no longer challenged. I am so capable of so much more and I would like to stay with the company, but career advancement is limited. Just recently I applied for a management position within my department and I have been diligently praying it's in God's favor for me to have this job. Getting this job will open so many doors for me career wise and financially.


I'd be lying if i said I was depressed, but I am on the verge of depression. I'm just not happy with the state of my life at the moment. I keep telling myself obviously there are reasons why God has completely blocked my blessings, but it doesn't change the fact I am growing impatient.

Last year during one of my low points in life as if God had a hand in it I discovered the book "The Power of a Praying Woman" by Stormie Omartian. I read that book from cover to cover applying it's principles to my life. Almost overnight my life changed and the blessings began pouring in.


Sadly this time around I think I need a little more than the book. Please pray for my situations and my sanity.

I too am going through a LOT in my personal life just now, and GOD knows that I am TRULY experiencing a 'season' for my soul. HOWEVER, I am holding on for a better day, and I want to encourage you to also KEEP praying because IMHO, GOD does hear you :yep: and HE WILL answer your prayers. BUT, the only thing is that GOD does things when HE wants to do them and on HIS timeframe :) And above all, you MUST remain patient :yep:... God will NOT forget about you girl. Don't say you want or need, but ASK God for help and what you need......Make your prayers specific. And IF you have to, take a book or journal and WRITE down the specific prayers of your heart so they can go out into the universe and so they will be manifes themselves.....That is what I am doing currently.

KEEP ON TRUCKIN' GOD won't let you down :) . Just remember, this is a 'season' unto your soul...With GOD, time, belief, and continual prayer, things WILL get better, okay? DON'T GIVE UP :kiss:!!!!!

Please pray for my four year old son.


A praise! He had a very serious choking episode this weekend, but we were able to get his airway cleared out.
Now he is doing very well, except for a chronic cough. We had xrays, and the doc said that more than likely it's irritation, but if he got any food in his lungs he can get pnumonia. Nothing has showed up yet, but we still need to watch for pnumonia symptoms.

God is good. Please keep my baby in your prayers.

[BMoreFlyy]

I want to make a request now, not just for me but for me and my fellow classmates...
First and foremost, I need to take the worry out of my mind and walk on faith.

But my classmates and I have an exam to take on June 11th. It is our last chance to take it so that we can graduate in December. I want the knowledge and the confidence to be instilled in us to do what must be done and to most definitely walk on faith and not be weary.

Thank you.

I'm seeking prayer for my son who has been sick with an unknown illness. They plan to run some tests to check his heart tomorrow. He is 2 years old. Please pray for me and my family.

[BLESSED1]

I'm a bit hesitant in asking for prayer because I have been blessed many times over. I feel there are people out there in dire need of prayer in comparison to my issues......
.

I feel this same way about myself, but I got to ask y'all for help after praying so hard on my personal issues for the past 2 months I still feel burdened. So I'm just asking if anyone has time to please lift my name up in prayer, for all the things that I have been going through (I already talked to God about them so he knows already, too much for me to go into details). And also if you can say a special word for me to be blessed w/ my living situation, I just got a new landlord and she kicked us all out because she wants to renovate the whole building. We have until the end of this month to leave and the apt. pickings are slim round here :ohwell:

Be Blessed ladies, and don't worry even though I've been going through some serious lows the past couple of months I never stopped praying for y'all, love you all :kiss:

PLEASE PRAY FOR MY MOTHER!!!

Ladies please pray for my mother, she had a colitis attack yesterday (inflammation of the large intestine and colon). She was admitted to the hospital and released today. She's still in some pain and she will see the doctor and specialist tomorrow. My son had something similar with his intestines a few months ago where he had to have emergency surgery and was in ICU for almost a month. To God be the Glory he is doing wonderful now (even when the doctors were skeptical) all is well!

I claim total healing on my mother right now but I'd like the support of the prayer warriors out there. Thank you ladies, God bless.

[BLESSED1]

Please pray for my boyfriend. He's still hasn't found a job and his debt is getting bigger, I've been praying for financial relief and that he doesn't lose his spirit. I'd appreciate anyone else's prayers, TIA.

Oh and thanks to whoever prayed for me in my earlier prayer request, I got the blessings that I was looking for and then some. PRAISE HIM :notworthy

[phynestone]

Hi everyone!

There are several things I need prayer for and I just don't know where to start. I'm really worried about my academic future b/c I'm trying hard to get into a good graduate school and I'm so worried that I won't. Secondly, my spiritual walk as I learn the truth about more and more of people I thought were my friends. I honestly feel as if I can't trust anyone anymore. Despite what's going on, I am happy b/c I do know that this is happening for a reason, and it is all for the glory of God.

Hi ladies,

Please pray for my mother specifically when she goes for testing next week. The doctors will see if the cancer from her kidney spread to her uretha. Her kindney will be removed Friday (6/15/05) and if the cancer has not spread she will not need radiation or chemo. Thank you ladies and God bless!

[Poohbear]

Please pray for my 1 year old nephew. He went to the doctor yesterday and we found out he has lost about 20% of his hearing from fluid buildup in his ears. He will be getting tubes in August. Please pray that his condition clears up and that his surgery goes well.

Ladies Im in need of prayer, I'm taking my National Dental Licensure Board examination tuesday. The past 5 yrs of my life has been geared for this day. Pray that I pass my board Tuesday.
Thanx :look:

[shalom]

To make a long story short I have been living at home for a very long time and I am now looking to move. My sister lives at home as well and she is looking to move also. Our dilemma: Every time we have tried to move some catastrophe has placed itself in our paths (lack of funds, unemployment, family illness you name it), this has offered much discouragement to us in our past.

Please pray for my sister and I that God will lead and guide us with the move and that everything will be paid in full with leaving no debt behind or before us, pray that we will find good safe neighborhoods and space to live in as well as for employment security and safety. We really want to be lead by God and not by our personal need.

Thank you ladies.

P. S. I will be keep each and every one of you in my prayers.
If anyone wants to interceed with me, my daily prayer times is 6:00 p.m. P. S. T.

[shalom]

I know I should have added this to the last one but I just got the request.

Before I say what I would like prayer on I'd like to ask that you not judge me. My sister has a little less than I have financially so moving is more difficult for her and to add to this she has a teenage son. She just called to asked what do I think about getting a bigger place, my response is I haven't thought about it, but the truth is ladies I really want to live out on my own, for the last 17 yrs. I have been at home helping out. 17 yrs. ago my mother came home from work and said that the lord told her to quit her job and go into full time ministry at the same time my teenage sister was pregnant, to make a long story short we have all lived together for the last 15 yrs. 2 yrs. ago my mother had a stroke and is now living in a convelescant home and this came of the heels of me telling my family that I was moving out, my mom fell into such a deep depression that she just lost it. My sister, nephew and I continued living together so in total it's been 17 yrs. the last two my sister was unemployed and I have been there for her and my nephew, she is now employed. I'm going to try to simplify my situation: 40, never left home no children and has never been married. I do not regret the choices that I have made for my life as I love my family very much. Our living wasn't one full of struggle we were happy together we live in a very nice upper middle class neighborhood in California the beach is only 10 min. away expensive shopper centers, restaurant also well as other amenties. I don't feel that this situation has held me back from anything in my life I just want to live on my own. The worst part is I've been feeling like in my spirit wonders of if we should get a bigger place I don't know if this is God or not. I pray that I am in God's will. Please pray for me I am extremely confused.

Thank youl

[renee_n_3000]

Hi ladies,

Until now I have just been a lurker on the Christian Fellowship forum but have been so very thankful for it. I am posting this message to ask for prayers for my brother who has just reentered the hospital. He has a very serious illness and has been in this situation before. I believe that prayer is what brought him through last time and I have faith that it will again.

My father just called to tell me about this and the symptoms he described hurt my heart so much that it is too hard for me to go into much detail. Please pray for my brother's young daughter and ex-wife as well because it is very hard for them to see him suffer this way.

Thank you. You are all in my prayers as are your loved ones that you have posted about.

:wave: God recently led me to begin a Christian based book club where we meet once a month to discuss books based on biblical truth. We started with "Power of the Praying Wife" by Stormie Omaritan. Please pray that all the members will commit to praying for their husband on a consistent basis and that God did not bring us together to just discuss books but to intercede and encourage one another. Thank you and your prayers are truly appreciated :)

I can't stop crying over a situatiton that I cannot control. I can only learn to control myself. Please ladies, pray for me. I need to get over an ended relationship but cannot stop butchering myself over what happened, or constantly guessing in my head "why". I wish everyday that I could call him and talk to him in a mature way. But I've talked to him enough during the relationship, what can I say now that would make a difference? I feel as though he hates me and yet he was my best friend, and he let me go. I can't run back to fix anything, it's over, and I need help moving on. Please ladies, I have to stop crying and sabotaging myself over our relationship. It pains me that he doesn't need me in his life. It's been almost 2 months now. Pray that God heals my broken heart. Pray that I learn to move on, because I'm sure he has.

[levette]

Please pray for my nieces and nephew who lost their mother and now have to adjust to living in different environments.

[islangirl2002]

Hello Good Morning Ladies of LHCF. I've been very hesitant in posting and asking for prayer but the Lord knows that I need it. As I sit here typing this I'm in tears. I ask that as I come to you with this prayer request that you will not be judgemental towards me. I have not been where I should these past few months, and it's really taking a toll on me mentally and spiritually. I try praying for myself but it seems as if I'm not doing it right. So I need all you prayer worriors to pray for me because my mistakes just seems too unbearable. It's hard for me to believe that God will forgive me for what I've done. I haven't been in able to go to church the way I want to because of it. I kept telling myself what was the point especially since I knew I wasn't ready to stop what I was doing. Well as of Saturday the decision was made to stop even though I still wasn't ready but it was a decision that had to be made and now the guilt is wieghing me down. So I'm asking you guys to pray that the Lord give me the strength to forgive myself and get past this feeling of guilt.

Thanks in Advance

Shannie

[1stladysonshine]

Ladies,

I need your prayers. Today I go to my first doctor's appointment since finding out that I am pregnant. I am soooo excited, and nervous. See, a few years back I had a pregnancy that turned into a miscarriage, which resulted from a molar pregnancy (abnormal, and invasive cells). Well, the molar turned into a form of cancer called choriocarcinoma. After 6 months of chemo, I am find today!!!

So, you can understand why I am nervous about my appointment today. However, it doesn't stop there. The father of my baby and I were supposed to be married earlier this summer, but I called it off due to unresolved issues that NEEDED to be straightened out before the marriage took place. Well, in the mist of the "straightening out" we got pregnant. Now, my issue is how in the world do I deal with my family. We, he and I, are soooo happy about this blessing. We want to move forth with starting our family, but people, when I tell you that some close relatives may not be so supportive, that is the understatment. :eek: My fiance has moved to Cali and I am in the ATL. Therefore, we (me and the bambino) would have to move, but I am just about to close on a house, and he is in law school. Now, though our future may look bright, the next two-three years may be a little hectic, which is the grief I am going to get from my family. How do I handle this???? :(

That is why I need your prayers. I need prayers to soften hearts, to cover the pregnancy, and for GOD to prepare us mentally, spiritually, and financially to have this baby!

I ask that you keep me in your prayers. I have gone through some major issues with school and my family. Also, keep my sister, family and fiance in your prayers.

[blqlady]

Dear Lord,
I am one of the last persons who should be posting a prayer. I have made promises and promises to you that I would remain steadfast in prayer. Once again i failed You. I get so anxious and depressed when things do not go my way. I feel as though i have no self-worth. I know I should not focus on my past situations and that I need to rise above all of that. It is very difficult. I need your help all the time I can not do this by myself. Please help me Lord only You can help me. Please bless me with perserverance, patience, love,compassion and most of all wisdom. You know that these are amoung the desires of my heart. I want to change and to be a whole and to feel like I do not need I need anything else in my life. Yes I want to get married and live a good life but at the same time if I am blessed with a husband (the one you have blessed for me) that marriage will be right for me? I dont know Lord I just remember to always put you first in my life

[blqlady]

I am sorry i forgot to mention that to please hear the prayers of all my sisters here and for all my family,friends and enemiesespecially my brother who really needs You in his life and to bless him with a wife blessed by You for him.
My son who is the light of my life needs your help to he is a teenager who is going thru the motions. He needs Your guidance, love and protection

[madamdot]

I am so glad I have found this site. In fact I believe God led me here as I told him I was going to embark on this hair care journey and ask Him for direction.

Please say a prayer for me. So many things have been difficult and confusing in my life and I have been praying for God's guidance and help.

Please pray for my job. I have been promised a raise for a new position and they have not followed through. They even hinted that if and when they do it would be tiny even though my new responsibilities are more. I pray that they are fair with me.

Please pray for my immigration status. The story is too long to explain but the Lord knows my struggle.

Please pray that God guide me in my relationship. I have met the most amazing wonderful man who I believe could be my mate. However, things are not going smoothly. I pray the Lord guide me, because even though I love this person if this is not God's will then I know there can be no success.

Thank you for your kindness and prayers. God Bless you all.

[azul11]

Dear friends,

I have a prayer request. I dont know if I am asking for too much but I have a prayer for three people. One is my friend who right now seems to have lost faith in prayer. It made a little sad that she didnt think that it was effective. She is working two jobs and doesnt even have time to think about her future and I just feel like she is very unhappy. She works almost every day to help support her family, her father, and two younger siblings, while her father slips into depression and his health is not well. I just want for her to have hope in life and faith that God will see her though. I just wish that something good could happen so that she can enjoy life again and her father can get his joy back.

The second person is a friend who has mental health issues. I have tried to be there tirelessly for her, during her calls at all hours of the day and night, her repeated calls while I was at work, her hallucinations and everything. I told her we should go to church, and she said WE, when you start speaking french?? I realize I cant fight this for her and it is wearing me down because I have neglected myself. I just wish the Lord would touch her life, and help her get through.

The last person is myself. I am a worryer. I am trying to be positive and have hope and faith in God and his plan for me. I need strength to overcome all obstacles. I NEED MY JOY BACK. I want to smile and have joy even when times arent great. I want to rejoice even when the devil is trying to get me and say you WILL NOT TAKE MY JOY AWAY. I need help for strength to get myself healthy, to eat right, lose weight and have silly as it sounds to grow my hair and continue to fight.

I know these are a lot of prayers but I know prayer works. I pray these every day and night and even when I am walking down the street or working. Thank you all for listening. God bless you all.

[phynestone]

I'm in need of prayer. I'm just really exhausted and I don't know how long I'll be able to deal. I'm so tired.

[shalom]

Ladies, if I am not mistaken tomorrow we get together to fast and pray I will hold each of your prayer request up before the Lord to believe with you for what you ask.

I have a request: please pray for my nephew the boy has dropped out of High School, on probation and got the nerve to be smoking drugs, when he's not doing this he's sitting around sleeping all day his family just recently came to move with me, I'm trying to be patient with the child but he's lazy on top of everything else. Because of worrying about him my health problems are escalating (diabetes and CFS). Pray for my sister who's having problems on her job.

Thanks all, I appreciated your efforts.

[BLESSED1]

Please pray for my friend's family. He was shot last night and died this morning. Thank you

Thank you for fulfilling the previous prayer request ;)

Please also if you have time, pray for me and my job situation. When I came in this morning I was greeted by my supervisor and a security guard who told me I had to leave immediately as I was to be suspended indefinitely. They wouldn't tell me why I was suspended and I'm confused because I haven't done anything wrong there nor do I know if this will lead to termination.

Thank you

This is my first post in this thread...
I need your prayers and agreement, I am taking the last portion a test Math/Science portion, that the state of CA requires me to pass in order for me to pass, Ladies I have taken this test(particularly this section), at least three times and have been only a few points from passing, I need you prayers that I pass with at least 220(the minimum requirements), passing this portion(Math/Science) will allow me to quit my job and start my teaching career, which will double my income, and get my Master's degree, I am really desperate at this point and really really need all those PRAYER WARRIORS out there to send a special prayer up for me, the test is on March 19 at 7:30 AM....I am asking the LORD to give me the victory in this....and I surely claim the victory, I think that's all I have to "say" at this point...TIA and please continue to pray for me and I will continue to pray for you all...

May God Richly Bless You and All Your Families!!!


Update...I passed the test, PRAISE THE LORD!!!

[oglorious1]

One more thing my cousin needs your prayers, we heard her dad had a heart attack is on life support, her dad had an admin directive not to be on, so they're going to turn off life support today, and she is trying to make memorial arrangements, God still has the final say, so whatever God's will is please pray for her strength

[FRO-EVER 21]

Please pray for me and my family. Im going thru quite a bit with my sister and Im not sure what to do.

[levette]

Please pray for me and my family as we all have been sick lately. Also, please pray for me at my job as a lot of things are happening that have gotten me down.

[pressncurl]

Please pray for me . . . I have a huge decision to make regarding my career, and I truly need God's guidance. I don't want to act hastily.

On Jan 2, I quit that stupid door to door sales job and immediately found employment with a temp agency. I was only supposed to be working for the first client for two weeks but they liked me so much that they asked me to stay for a couple of more weeks. Then they asked me to stay until April because an employee was going on maternity leave.

This week I was offered a permanent position as a marketing admin assistant (right next to one of the VPs). I do have to apply and interview just like everyone else. I am asking for your prayers in hopes that I get this job. It is actually something I want to do. The only problem that I have with it is that I have to have a two year committment (my boyfriend is going to be all the way in KY one year and Iraq the next while I am in Arizona for two years :( ) But we can do this.

I have been very optimistic since I left New Orleans and got SO much help from you guys. Please pray that I get a permanent job that I love.

Hello All!
This is my first time posting but I'm a regular reader. I need your prayers right now...I've been at this company for 5 1/2 years and have seen many people within my department as well as throughout the co. get layed off in preparation for a merger. It is now final, but I've been told in confidence by one of the "higher ups" who I have a close working relationship with that they are going to eliminate one more person at my level --currently only 2 people including myself are left. There is a meeting tomorrow morning to discuss and decide who it will be, but no one knows when their decision will be made final. I was also told that most of my peers have voted for me so to speak. However... ladies I'm going to put it all out on the table right now and I apologize in advance if I sound very curt, but I'm black she's white and you know how that can go in corporate america. Also for my SO who has been very supportive despite going through his own ordeal. Keep us in your prayers please.

Be blessed.

Pops

[good2uuuu]

Pops, I will say a prayer now. Even if you are chosen to go, trust that God has got something bigger and better in store for you and is just making a way to give it to you!

Thanks again!

Please continue to raise my dad up in prayer. He has been battling cancer for over a year. His faith is stronger than ever and he claims this year as his year of restoration. We still believe God for healing, this battle has really taken a toll on my family as a whole. I really pray that God also teaches us to grow through this experience.

[beyondcute]

Please pray for me... Im going thru a break-up. A 5 year relationship is ending. I dont see any coming back from this. I dont know what to do, what to think, how to act, how to heal my brokwn heart. Im at a loss. Please pray for me....

[Zeal]

Hey sisters. God Blessed me with a Job Interview at Aramark as a Customer Support Analyst. Pray that God will go before me and with me during the interview. Working at this location would make things much easier for me. I will ba ablt to attend my praise dance on time. Have more rest tand take better care of my temple.

[crlsweetie912]

Praise the Lord: I am being tested/tried on many levels. I have assumed leadership responsibilities in my church, have been trying to organize a new ministry aimed at young teens with babies. I have especially been being tested because I allowed my sister and neice to come into my home after they (my sister, her husband and neice) were evicted from their apartment in August. They were supposed to move in November but they squander money. This has been an extremely hard task for me since my sister doesn't contribute to the house hold. My Gas and electric bills are sky high and I have three sons to care for. Please keep my family in your prayers as will I keep you in mine!

Be Blessed.

[Sazzy4Evr]

Hello to everyone!

Please pray for me. I am at a point in my life where I feel apathetic, anxious, and depressed. I feel like I have made a lot of mistakes in my life, but I am working on myself to become a better person. But still, your prayers would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and God bless everyone.

[cheeks23]

Please pray for my mother who needs to pass her boards in order to renew her RN license. She will be taking the test next Wednesday. My sister who is in college (full-time), working (part-time), and a single mother. I would also like you to pray for me. I just graduate from college and I need a job (career), I would also like to pray that my boyfriend will, one day soon, accept Jesus as his personal Savior, and I would like to get a place of my own. I know there is power in numbers so please keep me in prayer. It's been a ROUGH year for me and my family. Thank you.

[longhair1]

Kiearha, I'm sorry about your babysister. My heart and prayers extend to you and your family. For Jesus says, that He came to heal the brokenhearted, and so He has...

He's right there with each of you and on the inside holding you in His loving arms. Just rest precious one...just feel His healing love in and around you and just rest.

With all my heart...

With your consent, in prayer I am changing your name from 'naughtee' to Preciousgirl, for there is nothing naughty about you; that name no longer governs your future nor the outcome of your progress or success. for words have power over our success.

From this moment on, let it be known to you that Jesus no longer calls you 'servant' but 'Friend". All because you are precious in the heart and in the sight of God, therefore, you are more than a conqueror through Jesus Christ who loves you. :)

Preciousgirl, He will bring all things to your rememberance as well as He is there to impart your heart with His wisdom and at the appointed time, He will lead and guide you in what to do. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Father, this precious one of yours is exactly as such...'precious.'

From the crown of her head to the souls of her feet, she is healed.

In all of her relationships there is love and total peace.

As a Virtuous woman, she is surrounded with the love of friends and family who know her heart and see only good and love is mulitiplied back to her 1000-fold

With her B/F's father, Lord...you know. We speak the breath of life into his heart, body and soul, allowing you to be the one in full control of each and every area of concern.

Father, bless her destiny...career, home, finances, marriage, her dreams.

As for the cares of this world, allow not one hair of her head to fall to the ground...for worry. We decree an end to the war, an end to the crooked political schemes and the schemers and for a sound government which operates in the manner that gives you glory.

In Jesus' name, Amen and Amen.

I dont know what to do yall please help me.

God will not give you more than you can handle. If you doubt that, just consider the fact that you are here and typed this message. You didn't die, and in the name of Jesus, you shall live and prosper, no matter what you see or feel right now.

Sweetie, please know that you are not alone. All the women here have suffered through this type of hurt that kept some of us down for months and even YEARS in my case, but we all made it through with the Grace of God, and so will you!!

I don't know what your situation is exactly so I can't speak to it directly, but I can tell you that these are the trials that make us stronger women tomorrow. There are some hurts and troubles that come to mold and shape you into who you'll need to be for the future. It's happened to all of us. Believe me when I say, this too shall pass. :kiss:

Let me pray for you:

Father, in the name of Jesus, we lift up beyondcute before you. You know who she is and call her by name. As she goes through this difficult time, send Your angels to minister to her. We know that You have a plan for her life, a plan to prosper and bless her, not harm her. Give her the clarity she needs to see You in all the events of her life.

We rebuke the spirit of fear, in the name of Jesus. We declare that her body is healed and made whole, that the enemy has NO AUTHORITY over her mind, and that no thoughts of suicide will be permitted to gain a foothold. We plead the Blood of Jesus over her, and curse the spirit of depression to it's roots. We ask that all ungodly ties be broken, in the name of Jesus. Set her free from any and everything NOT intended for her.

We pray and ask for abundant blessings to rain over her. Let peace be hers during the day, and cause her to sleep at night under Your protection. We thank-you in advance for the victory we KNOW she already has in this situation because of the power in the name of Jesus.

Thank-you, Lord, that in all things we can come to You, expecting and knowing that our prayers will be answered. We say Kingdom of God come, Will of God be done in her life, in the name of Jesus, Amen.

Be blessed, sweetie. I'll be praying for you! :rosebud:

Beyondcute, allow no man to steal your crown. That's God's word. No man is allowed access to whom God has called you to be. And what that is, is FREE.

Precious one, no man possesses your soul. Bread and water is our substance to live; yet even Jesus says, 'Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." God's word says further, that you are not alone. Nor will you ever be forsaken. Babygirl turn this thing around and allow yourself to be free. Let the burden of this be cast upon Jesus, for He cares for you.

No man is worth your life neither the quality of it. You've already given this man more than he deserves, the very best of you...your wonderful loving heart. Now, it's time to be selfish and put the focus on you and only you. This is your life, not anyone else's. And you have been given the God-given right to enjoy it and you will.

It's okay Baby to feel hurt, but not anymore. Angel shut the door and close in to and with the love of God who is waiting to embrace you and love you through all of this. For you are truly loved far above and beyond...'cute.' With Jesus you have it all and more and you always will.

You are deeply loved... :kiss:

[beyondcute]

Thanks to everyone!!! Im feeling so much better today. I realize that its s trick. Another set up. When I was putting my life back together here comes ol' trouble again... *sigh* I need to learn how to recognize that lil monster...

Father God, please help me through these trying times that I am going through. I know that you hate divorce. My husband is not willing to work on the marriage. I know that you have seen all that has gone out throughout our marriage. I know you have witnessed the physcial and verbal abuse that has taken place in this marriage. I do not believe that my husband wants to be this way but I dont feel like he believes he has a way out. Reveal to him that he does not have to be a bitter, angry, and a controlling person. He revealed in an angry email that he was drained physically and emotionally. Touch his heart and show him how to be the father to his child that you created him to be. Please open his heart to forgiveness so that we can get beyond the plan that you have for the both of us. I ask this all in Jesus name!
Amen

Dearest Father,

We place AMJMJR and her husband upon your mercy seat and allow them to be under your protective care. Father no longer can the enemy have rule or even a foothold in these precious lives. he is commanded to flee from them in Jesus' name.

Father, in your precious word, you said that a man is to be the protector of the wife, not someone that she needs to be protected from. O' Father in Heaven, break this man's anger and make Him see what He has been designed by you to be. It's not abusive in any manner or form.

Give wisdom to these lives and hearts and Father until he repents and turns solely to you, place this family in a safe haven of peaceful rest allowing you to give your best to make them what you designed and called them to be. Happily married.

No longer is this man allowed to lift his hand and raise his voice against his wife in anger. His hands are designed to love and protect her. To comfort her; to embrace her; to soothe her and to brush her hair with all loving and tender care. Let his hands be lifted up ONLY to give you praise and glory and his voice raised to give your praise all the day long.

Father, this has now been given unto you. Do whatever you have to do, to bring your life into his heart giving this marriage a brand new start. In Jesus name we pray, Amen and Amen.

AMJMJR, Hold on angel. Hold on. Please find a safe place to be; don't be alone in this, sweet one. Allow God to show you when and where to go until your husband has been made whole. God bless you, angel. :kiss:

Thanks ladies for your prayers. My son and I are living with family in a different state. I didn't want to leave but I had to for the safety of myself and our son. He continues to remain angry and bitter eventhough we have been separated going on 9 months. Please continue to pray for me and my family and I will pray for you all.

[ultrasuede]

Please pray for my sister and my nephew Chris. My sister has developed a very hard hearted attitude toward her oldest child. She considers herself a devout Christian so I don't understand why she can show no compassion towards her own flesh and blood. She has five other children that she treats like gold. She recently bought a nice five bedroom house and doesn't want him living with her. He can do nothing right in her eyes and I believe he gets blamed for things that the other children do. My nephew is a young adult who just needs a little support to get on his feet. He was laid off around a month ago. I feel that no matter how old a child is a mother should be willing to extend a helping hand to her child and not kick him when he's down.Please pray that the Lord would speak to her heart in this situation.

[crlsweetie912]

Please pray for me as I have been depressed for the past couple of weeks. It seems as if nothing is going right for me. I have headaches every day and all I want to do is sleep. I know God hasn't forgotten me, but the things that have been happening lately have left me feeling kind of hopeless. I know that God has a plan for my life if I hold on to His hand and be steadfast. Things are really hard for me right now and I need to get back to a place of peace. Especially pray for my children. My middle son is having a lot of trouble in school and every avenue that I seek help in is another door shut in my face. I don't want him to fall so far behind that he can't recover.

TIA.

Without knowing the people involved, let me say that sometimes as a parent, you have to mete out really tough love to get a child to do right. I don't know your sister or her situation, and I don't know if your nephew has given her some trouble in the past, but if she's a Christian woman, I want to believe that this is as hard on her as it is on him. It would be for me. We will pray that the Lord doesn't harden her heart over much towards her son, and that any discipline she doles out is given within reason. That she has a heart of understanding for any difficulties he may be having in his life, and that she not give up on him and consider him a lost cause too quickly.

We will further pray that the Lord would guide this young man in the ways that he should go. That he be kept from people who would cause him to go in a direction that is wrong for him, that he be inclined to do right in the sight of his mother and God, and that he fulfills the destiny God has for him. It's hard enough for young black men in today's society. He certainly doesn't need to feel he's being rejected by his own mother. Be blessed! :rosebud:

For your son, cover him with your prayers every morning before he goes off to school. Plead the blood of Jesus over him, and pray that he would find favor in the eyes of the school administrators and the people who need to help him. Continue in your fight to get him help, no matter how many doors are shut in your face. Trust me when I tell you, God has a habit of showing up when all hope is lost, and you think there's no help coming from any direction. Then you'll know without a doubt WHO it was that is deserving of all the credit and praise! :)

As for yourself, sweetie, Jeremiah 29: 11-13 says:

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

I know where you are and what you're feeling. It's a tough place to be in, and in that place, it's hard to feel encouraged, but remember the words of the Lord for you! His plans to prosper you and not harm you. This is the time to praise Him and give Him glory, in the middle of the battle. Don't be depressed or in despair. Show the enemy how tough you are in the battle, and that despite everything that's going wrong around you, you KNOW that God is going to show up! The Lord loves it when we excercise our faith in Him in the midst of our troubles. God is faithful, He will come and fix everything that's currently going wrong. Believe it! :kiss:

Hence my neice and nephews/stank family thread from the other day. :ohwell: I pray that I can handle these issues in a diplomatic loving manner. Oh add the coworkers to that prayer for me also please. Shimmieeeeeeeeeee where you be's?:p

Hi Babygirl. "Mommie's" right here. {{{ Hugs }}} ;)

I'm home in Florida this week with my family, but still here.

You know what? The peace has always been in your heart. The love and the peace that you chose out of your own free will. But knowing the 'fire' that's in your spirit (for you have strong courage), the devil is only 'testing' you with the same tools and weapons that he thinks still trigger you to anger.

But they no longer 'have' you. They never did. If so, you would not be able to recognize the call for prayer. You are growing, pretty blossom. Yes, the "Fire" (you) are growing. Growing into the beautiful example of change that God wants to show off to the world. You, His babygirl.

There's a big difference between one who is wrong and denies it ** from the one who calls out from her heart for God to move in and move out what does not belong. You called out. ;)

You are in His heart, growing warm, Fire. Your cry for prayer is all the proof that you will ever need that God lives in you, breathes in you and that He is so very proud of you. For what you've done is pushed out what does not belong, making more room in your heart for more of God's love to live inside of you. More love for you to share, for you share so much of yourself with others. You always have.

Shimmie is here and loves you dearly, but more than that, God is here and loving you far more than anyone ever could. Today, you have given Him something to smile about. His daughter, who is "Fire" that warmed His heart in the midst a cold cruel world.

The people you mentioned...they are no biggie anymore, are they? You have better things to focus upon; such as how very much you are loved and thought about. :yep: Feel Better Now? If not, you will. ;)

Loving hugs to you my sister... :kiss:

Dear Ladies:

This is really hard for me to write, because I don't usually ask for things for myself. However, I need your prayers that God will deliver me from something I have been struggling with for a while.

I know that God has put this on my heart because He is trying to take me to a higher place for His glory. And I also realize that my life has hit a plateau because of this issue. I know that God alone can heal my heart and allow me to prosper. However, I am also praying that I can find someone who can give Godly counsel to me concerning this situation.

Basically, I have a problem with appearances. Not physical appearances, but keeping up appearances. For example, things may not be going well for me, but I'll make others think everything is okay. I just finished graduate school, and I'm still looking for job, but I'm making all my friends think everything is okay, but it's not. God has shown me that keeping things to myself, and letting people believe things is not being truthful. In essence, He's shown me that I am not always honest, and that makes me a "liar" in His eyes. I used to pride myself on being honest, so this is a difficult thing. I know that I should trust others more, and that everyone struggles with something, so I'm not a weirdo.

I am fortunate to have loving Christian parents and siblings, who are wonderful, but I would like someone who is not related to me to talk with. It's not that I don't trust my parents or my sisters, it's just that I would like someone who will pull me up where necessary (my family will tell me about myself, but not the way a non-relative will).

I know my heart needs to change, and I'm trying on my own, but I feel that I need an accountability person. Thank you.

For your son, cover him with your prayers every morning before he goes off to school. Plead the blood of Jesus over him, and pray that he would find favor in the eyes of the school administrators and the people who need to help him. Continue in your fight to get him help, no matter how many doors are shut in your face. Trust me when I tell you, God has a habit of showing up when all hope is lost, and you think there's no help coming from any direction. Then you'll know without a doubt WHO it was that is deserving of all the credit and praise! :)

As for yourself, sweetie, Jeremiah 29: 11-13 says:

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

I know where you are and what you're feeling. It's a tough place to be in, and in that place, it's hard to feel encouraged, but remember the words of the Lord for you! His plans to prosper you and not harm you. This is the time to praise Him and give Him glory, in the middle of the battle. Don't be depressed or in despair. Show the enemy how tough you are in the battle, and that despite everything that's going wrong around you, you KNOW that God is going to show up! The Lord loves it when we excercise our faith in Him in the midst of our troubles. God is faithful, He will come and fix everything that's currently going wrong. Believe it! :kiss:
Thank you Pebbles! I am just now seeing this!
Just also keep my son in prayer. He has been diagnosed with sleep apnea and may have to have surgery. TIA!

Coco, I have struggled with this for a very long time. I have always been the one that people go to for help, cry on my shoulder. I never had a "human" friend/counselor that I could trust and go to. For myself, I realized that God wanted me to see Him as the person who would never fail me and whom I could go to any time of the night or day. When I tried to put this same trust in a human, I was disappointed every time. I am not saying that this is your experience, just sharing mine.

Is there a person of authority at your church who you could trust and go to for guidance? What about your pastor? I know that a lot of pastors are so busy, but I doubt that any one of your church leaders would turn you down. BE BLESSED.

Thank you crlsweetie912. I agree with you, especially the bolded part. I know that God is trying to do great things in my life, and I know that my problem is my stumbling block. I guess I know that only God can deliver me, but I get frustrated with myself when I continue doing the same thing. I know God is not as upset with me as I am with myself. I want to be able to be a more open person. I have always been private, and that may never change. But God has (through the Holy Spirit) really been putting on my heart that I need to believe in Him so much that no matter how something looks, He will always see me through.

I have a habit of making everything always seem perfect in my life when it's not. I don't have any major problems, but I feel like I do need to trust people a little more than I do now. I feel like God is trying to get me to love my neighbor more. I'm a nice person, but I don't open up to people and that's not Godly. For example, I thought I had a job, but it didn't work out. I haven't told people this. Some of my friends thought I was working there, and I haven't shared with them that I'm not. In this way, God has shown me that I am not being honest with people. In essence, it makes me a liar. I feel like God is trying to get me to lean on others. Not to the extent that I don't always go to God first, but to know that He made people to help with life along the way. Does that clarify? Thank you for your advice.

[crlsweetie912]

perfect sense coco, that's why I was saying that I didn't think that your case and mine were exactly the same! I understand what you mean about putting off the "image" too. People always ask me how I do it with the 3 boys, I am always at church (early), prepared and look like I have it all together. I think it's an issue with vulnerability as well. Not wanting people to know just how hard you have it, no matter what it is. Showing your chink in the armor.

I couldn't have said it better myself. That's exactly what the Lord has been showing me about myself. By not allowing people to see my vulnerabilities, they really can't get to know me. And I feel God's loving but firm hand on my shoulders telling me that I need to change. I also feel like He is trying to show me that by making everything always seem okay, I'm denying Him, because it's like I don't ever need God to fix things for me (and I know that's far from true).

[cheeks23]

Please pray for me. The devil is trying to knock me down. He tries one way and fails, but he keeps coming back. I need strength from the Lord in order to push through. Please keep me and my family in your prayers. Thank you.

[mblake8]

Please pray for strong holds to be broken off of my life. God has blessed me so much its crazy. He answers all my prayers. The thing that is holding me back is me. I need to break this spirit of laziness and lack of self disipline in my life.Its stopping me from reaching many of my goals. If anyone has any scriptures in this area for me to meditate on please PM me. Thanks!

[shalom]

Since I'm fasting today with Star, I'll be sure to pray for you guys.

"If God be for me, who can be against me" No one.:)

As Paul said to Timothy, "Stir up the gift that is in you..."

Angel, a wonderful gift you are and a wealth of gifts you have within. That's the only reason for your 'stand-still'. Your gifts are overflowing and there's only one of you...;) Ask God to sort them for you and fire you up to put them into action. He will. Just for you...He will. ;)

Ladies (and gentleman),

Please lift my teenage son up to the Lord in prayer. He is truly rebellious and defiant and I am very afraid for him. He wants to be grown and ghetto so bad that he is willing to risk his freedom to do so.

He lives with his father now, but I am extremely concerned for him because he just does not seem to respond to punishment or consequences. He was raised in a good home, but so desires to be like his cousins who live in the ghetto (no offense because some of them are angels and are doing much better than my son). I just mean that its like he has something to prove to them because he did not share that experience and is somewhat priveledged. He has absolutely no reason to want to get into drugs or to drop out of school, yet he gravitates towards all of the horrible things that others had no choice but to experience.

I know that God has great plans for my son's life because it was revealed to me in a dream when my son was very small, but right now, I am at a loss. All I can do is pray for him now, and I ask that you do the same.

His name is Markeith.

[star]

Have a meeting on this day that can change my life or begin a change to my life; need your prayers desperately. If you are able to fast and pray all or part of the day I would grealty appreciate it. If you can fast and pray any day before that, that will be fine too. If you cannot fast and prayer just say a prayer for me. This day may change my whole life this is my Esther moment when destiny meets purpose. Your power in Jesus will help to increase my favor that day. This involves my career direction. Meeting starts in the morning.

Thanks ladies and whatever you can do will be helpful.

[zzirvingj]

I would like to request some prayer. I seem to get depressed around the same time every year and I feel it coming on right about now.

The stresses I put on myself have been hindering me from making any future plans or goals. I have become so concerned with a fear of dying that I am not living. I think it's cause the person who raised me, my grandmother, the person I called "Mama" passed last Christmas and it was a horrible experience. Now it is about to be the 1 year anniversary of her death.

It is hard because I feel like I have no plans for life and work is wearing me down. I don't feel the desire to get out of the bed and that's real.

Father, in the name of Jesus, we lift up Markeith before you. Lord, the enemy is on special assignment against the children of believers. Lord, we turn Markeith over to you. You created him, and we ask You, right now, to seize him and turn him away from the path of destruction he's on. If You must bring him low to raise him high, let Your will be done. But Father, we claim him for Your kingdom. In the name of Jesus, we ask that ungodly friends be moved away from him. Make Markeith grow tired and weary of the path he is currently travelling. Give him a restlessness in his spirit to accomplish more than what he sees currently in his life.

Father, I ask that You would strengthen his mother to pray more fervently and with more urgency. Let her not grow weary or faint, but encourage her daily to seek You and Your will for the life of her son.

We pray this way, in Jesus' name. Amen.

Be blessed!! :rosebud:

Sweetie, I know how hard it is to lose a loved one. Especially one who is like a parent. And to lose her around the holiday has got to be the hardest thing of all.

But think for a moment. If your grandmother could see you now, what would she say to you? Allow me, for just a moment, to guess what she would say and what she would want you to do.

She would remind you of how much she loved you. She would remind you of how much she wanted you to do with your life, and the goals she would love to see you reach. She knew you were destined for a wonderful, prosperous life, and she would be pushing you to reach for that destiny with all your strength.

We all have a mission on this earth, and once we're done, the Lord calls us home. Her time was up, but she left a wonderful legacy in you. Do your best to live up to your dreams. She may not be able to see you, but live as if she could see you. Make her proud.

There is a time to weep and mourn, and your time is quickly coming to an end. It's time to pick up the pieces and move forward. Make her proud of the woman she left behind.

Heavenly Father,

Thank-you for the life of this beautiful young woman! Lord, she's hurting and she's lost her way and her will to live. But You are The God of restoration and second chances. You have a plan for her life. Reveal it to her, and let her be reminded that no matter who is moved in and out of her life, YOU are still in control of all things!

Father, I thank-you in advance for how You're going to quicken her desire to live a full and happy life. As she enters into 2007, bring fresh revelation to her. Bring people after Your own heart into her life. Give her a new mindset. In Jesus name, we rebuke the spirit of depression and command it to loose it's hold on her and set her free! We declare that her mind is stayed and focused on YOU!

Dry her tears, dust her off, and stand her up, Lord! We know, trust, and believe that YOU can do it! We say Kingdom of God come, Will of God be done in her life. In the Mighty Name of Jesus we pray, Amen.

I believe that you will be well. You're not here by mistake. You exist because God wanted you to exist. You will be victorious, and you will go on to live a happy and prosperous life. Be at peace, and know that your destiny in Jesus awaits you!! Be blessed!! :rosebud:

[Proudpiscean]

I am embarking on a difficult journey that I know I will need the Lord to help me accomplish. I am trying to get into graduate school! It may seem small, but it is in fact a difficult task (especially as a single parent). I pray to God for the resolve & determination to do what it takes to get into school and to complete it successfully. Please send up prayers for me.

[tallnomad]

Please pray for me and my family. We will be traveling to Egypt later today with a stop off in Amsterdam. Please pray for our traveling grace overseas, throughout our trip and as we make our way back home in the next two weeks.

Thank you.

I just started a new job and believe that many of my co-workers have a great disdain for me because of a misunderstanding. Also, since this is a sales job that includes recruiting students, I have to maintain a quota. Please pray that I continue to have God's strength and protection as I continue my training. (Psalm 91).

[AmyInAtl]

I need to be on this prayer list.
I am having a really difficult time in my life and marriage. I sacrificed not working to conceive girls, for my husband, now he's acting a total fool. The devil wants to be victorious over my relationship, I do not want him to win. He keep coming at us with so much evil, for my husband, that it is. With him having emotional relationships with women online. I desperately need to pray and be prayed for. I have a heart ailment, that the doctor, told me last year, they would need to operate on my beating heart for 6 hours to correct the problem. I trusted and prayed to GOD. I received a prayer miracle. My heart has not bothered me. They say i dont need the operation now. But my husband is stressing me so bad, my heart is just plain overwhelmed, I do not want to be sick again. Please pray that GOD delivers my life from this stressful situation. i would like to save my marriage, but ultimately, I accept, what the LORDs will is for my life.
Thank you very much. may GOD bless us all.

[bludacious]

I asked that you ladies please pray for me. I am a contractor and my job is set to end at the end of February. I have one particular job that I am seeking but I am not limiting myself to that job. I feel it is God sent. I asked that you pray for a job for me, strength, stronger in faith, and patience.

Be Blessed,

To God be the glory...so shall it be done here on earth in your husband's heart, as it is in Heaven. Your husband shall behave as if he were in God's presence and not alone online, without moditoring. The devil is a liar. And from this moment on, God is in control and His will shall prevail and it shall be done in your husband's heart and in your marriage as well as in your health. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Lady Blu, I've prayed for you too. You needn't fear for God's provision is here and shall be seen crystal clear. You will never be in lack. Every need is met beyond that which you have prayed and beyond what you expect.

In Jesus' name...Amen. ;)

I just saw this and I hope that all is well. I pray that it will continue to flow in the order that God has called it to be. For no weapon formed against you shall prosper and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

Can anything good come from the book of Job? Hmmmmm, in Job 5, it says that 'they will not be able to perform their interprise.' and also, '...you shall be hid from the scourge of the tongue.'

The key issue is the threat upon you having financial resources. That has never stopped our Father God nor will it ever. This job is not your Destiny... instead, a bridge crossing to something better...beyond.

In God's perfect timing and provision, you will move on and you will move on in total peace and clear direction from our Father above...surrounded by His love.

God bless you and don't be afraid to succeed beyond where you are.;)

Hi Tiff... you have been in my prayers long before this post; never the less, I thank God for blessing you and keeping you safe no matter where you go. God bless you and I'm sorry that I did not see your post sooner.

I love you, precious sister...;)

[Ms Red]

Please pray for me and my mother. I have been helping her financially since my dad passed away over 2 yrs ago and now she is in desperate need of a financial blessing to keep her house. I have asked her to come up here to stay with me for a while to get her mind off of the situation and also look for work since there's barely any work since Rita hit my hometown.

Also, please pray for my BF, he is going through a rough time and is a believer and attends church and I know God wants to move in His life.

Thanks.

Hi,

I've never posted on this forum before but I'm going through some issues and I really need prayer.

My Grandmother died recently and we were very close. She was the Matriarch of our family. She basically raised me and I could talk to her about anything. I felt like royalty when she was alive because of how well she was thought of in the community and our church circles. There was over 400 hundred people at the funeral.

Anyway, since I came back to Florida (She lived in Toronto) I've been feeling like the Devil sees that I'm not protected by her prayers anymore and I think he is trying to kill me. On the first day of the year I had a flood in my apartment, last Friday I hit someone in the back after my Girlfriend dreamed I'd get into an accident and today I narrowly averted not one, but TWO accidents (not my fault).

I'm scared because she was always there for me and I long to pick up the phone and talk to her because it seems like bad things are happening to me all the time now. I don't want to live in fear, and I'm trying to develop a better relationship with God. But I need your prayers for strength. I cry every single day, at home as soon as I wake up, on the way to work, at work...you get my drift. The pain just doesn't go away...

Also, pray for my family because we are all really lost. When I speak to most family members, it's like we are all in a daze, we all feel so abandoned and alone.

PLEASE don't feel like you are alone!!! That's just a trick of the enemy. Last year I lost BOTH of my grandmothers within 3 weeks. My family made a vow that we would ban together and not loose the "family" that my grandmothers worked so hard to create.

GOD IS WITH YOU! Keep your faith and never listen to that crap that the devil tries to tell you. It isn't true.

Isaiah 54:17:
no weapon forged against you will prevail,
and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
and this is their vindication from me,"
declares the LORD.

2 Thessalonians 3:3:
"But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you from evil."

Joel 2:32:
"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call."

You and your family are the remnant. He still has His covering over. Please don't give up!

Please pray for my sons and their schooling. They have various things going on that I won't go into here, but they need the Lords covering and protection. Also for me to know how and what to talk to them about and to be receptive to what they need from me.

My Grandmother died recently and we were very close. She was the Matriarch of our family.
You've been in my prayers since you wrote this.

My relationship with my boyfriend is changing. A couple of days ago we had a disagreement that involved money and even though I really meant my apology, I know that only God and time can help the pain go away. Please pray that God's will be done in my relationship and that we both have the strength to endure any hurdles that may come to pass. Thank you for your prayers.

Thanks. I pray that God will direct you in this. Matters of the heart are the hardest to let God take control of. :-)

I would like prayer for a healthy pregnancy. I'm a little worried now but I've prayed and the rest is in God's hands.

[girlwithguitar]

Please pray for me. I have suffered from depression for so many years now. I would like to have some peace and happiness in my life and not be so lonely. Also I know this may sound petty but I would appreciate it if anyone would pray fro me to have a boyfriend as I am almost 22 and never had one or may be even just have a date for once? Thank you

[Africana in Alberta]

Please pray for me I just moved to a new city and I can't get a job I left a very good job behind to join my family here. I have gone to over 8 interviews and 8 times I have ben rejected. My resume and experience is great but I don't know whats wrong with me. Its hard not to think negatively. I know God has something in store for me but I'm really discouraged. Sisters I need your prayers.

[cheeks23]

I have a number of items that I would like you ladies to please present before the Lord:

1. Continued recovery (I recently had surgery)
2. Complete deliverance out of my current situation
3. Help to move out of my current living situation
4. My family
5. Decision to continue to draw closer to God.

Thank you ladies. The devil is trying to knock me down but the Bible says where two or three are gathered together in His name, He is there is there in the midst; so please join me in lifting up these requests to the Lord.

Good Evening Ladies,

I ask that you all lift me up in prayer. My husband and I have been trying to have a child and I was diagnosed with a condition called PCOS (long story). I have had ultrasounds, blood work, and have been to the doctor about 7 times within 5 months. I'm on my third doctor now but was refered to another doctor last week. I've even been put on fertility medicine. It's been a rough ride. Not only has us not getting pregnant been rough on our relationship, we've moved twice within a year both times across country since my husband is in the military and that has just added to our constant arguements and grudge holding.

I'm praying that the LORD strenghten our marriage and help us to realize that we need each other and that love will conquer all this negativity. Bless us with a healthy bundle of joy!! Lift our faith up!!

Thanks my Sisters,

Mz_Zartavia

Please pray for my family:
My youngest son's father is in intensive care and on a respirator. He has some kind of infection. Please pray for his healing and recovery. Also, my son who is only 3 has been with him for some time this week and may need to take antibiotics once they discover what type of infection his father has.

Thank you,

[sugaplum]

crlsweetie912 & baby42 I will keep you & your family lifted in my prayers. :)

I am asking for prayer for my transportation issues. Now that I've started school my car wants to act up. :nono: Thank you.

[crlsweetie912]

Suga I pray and I know that God will not leave you without the necessary tools, (transportation) to get where you need to go!

Thank you for your prayers. My son's father is now home from the hospital and doing well.

I ask for prayers for my mental peace of mind and that I get rid of this heavy spirit of lonliness that I am feeling. I feel like I have never been loved (besides God) and that I will never be loved. I just want to sleep forever.

[sugaplum]

Thank you crlsweetie912 for and everyone's prayers. :rosebud: My car is now fixed and running smoothly. :driver:

I will keep you crlsweetie912 in my prayers tonight. I'm so happy that your son's father is doing ok. My father suffered a massive heart attack, but thanks to all of your ladies prayers and God's power, he is doing well. :)

My only other prayer request is that my BF finds a job. :( He has been unemployed now for months. Sometimes I feel like giving up.

Thank you ladies.

[DreamLife]

Please pray for me. I have alot of bitterness built up from many many misfortunate events that have happened to me since I have been in college and it is stifling my Christian walk. I feel miserable and depressed and angry and can't seem to get over things that people have done to me. I am trying really hard to get a new heart and forgive, but its not working. And I know that if I can't forgive, I am going to be stuck in this rut. :confused:

I know that Jesus can set you free from ALL your cares. :grin: The devil is a liar...He wants you to believe you can't forgive to keep you from getting to where you need to be. If God can show so much mercy, then why can't people forgive. If Jesus can die on calvary, you can do a way simpler thing like forgiving even if it's hard. I know how hard it can be to forgive, but once you've moved on--you'll see how relieved you will feel not to have such things as anger & bitterness eating you up daily. Let go and Let God. The Lord can speak to the rain and the wind and they will obey, He can heal the sick and raise the dead--so do you really think He can't pull you out of a little rut?:smirk: I'll pray for you, Evagray and you just keep praying too.

Please pray for my bf. He has been job searching for a while with no results. He is God-fearing but his faith is wavering during this time.

Thank you.

[Sosa]

Hi Ladies,
I really need your prayers on this one. I'm trying to get into grad school (after MUCH procrastination). I've waited so long to do this that most deadlines have passed:( but I really believe that 2007 is a year of 'open doors':woot: . I'm believing GOD for a miracle for me to get accepted into a good med school, please believe with me on this. Its only with GOD's divine intervention will i be able to get in on time but I know that HE's not only able but WILLING:yay: !
I'm sure I'll start matriculating by Summer '07 as long as i keep my faith up :p
THANKS for ur prayers!!! I look forward to writing about my acceptance in the Praise Report thread;) . YAAAAY! (I'm so tickled, I feel like I'm already in)

I'm feeling led to say, for everyone who has placed a prayer request on this thread...PLEASE remember that GOD rewards faith (not tears and no need to bargain). so muster up great faith (not just little faith, cuz HE always rebuked HIS disciples for that) , keep believing GOD for what you're asking for and watch HIM meet you at the level of YOUR expectations.
luv y'all

[kinchen]

please pray for my piece of mind.

Thank you

[KansasHalo]

Please pray for me. My situation in a nutshell is this - I'm upset with God and I hate feeling this way because its a contradiction in terms for me because I don't understand how I can feel this way about Him when He means the world to me. I know my provisions and purpose come from Him, but there is one area of my life that it seems like God isn't working in - at all. And its this area that is causing resentment to grow and fester in me towards God and I don't like it. I KNOW better...I KNOW God loves me and has my best interest at heart, but still....

Anyway, I feel like I'm rambling now....but thanks in advance for your prayers and God bless.

[God'schild]

Pray for me as I take my Nclex exam for my RN license Monday. It has been a long journey and I praise God daily and for healing for my husband who is recovering from neck surgery.

[MzLady78]

I really need some closure this situation with my ex and our old landlady. My mind is tired, my body is tired and I just need things to work out in my favor and be done with so that I can move on for good.

Congrats on being a Registered Nurse. Keep me in your prayers as I prepare to take the Praxis II test for my Ed. Leadership certification. I can't receive my degree until I pass the test. The test is April 28. Please pray that I will pass the praxis exam on the first attempt. The test is very expensive.

[Tenejita10473]
