Jim, prayer up for your successful surgery and recovery.
May the Lord hold you and keep you, Jim!!!!
Prayers for God’s Blessings on Jim, you and caregivers.
How true. As for level of impact on the conservative movement, I rank Jim with Rush: Rush provided the anchor for us and let us know not only that we are NOT in the minority, but that we are and were never alone.
Jim has provided us the place to 'meet'.
Both are equally important.
I know they are probably getting him prepped now. I just said a prayer and will continue to pray...stopping only if I am disturbed by a client.
Bless every one of you for keeping Jim and his family in your prayers!
In our prayers!
Praying here BG...
Thank you for the pings...
((((HUGS)))))
Lord, I pray in one accord with every other prayer prayed in the Name of Jesus because of faith in Him on behalf of Jim and his family.
Lord God, there is one God, one King of Kings, one Lamb of God and that was, is and always will be You. You are Supreme above all things and work out all things for the good of those whose serve You in light of eternity. This is Your promise. Since You are Truth, You cannot lie. Therefore this morning we place our absolute trust in You, that indeed You will work out this thing for Your glory.
Lord God, among other things Your glory is the outshining of all that You are in a way others can see. You are the God of love. Out of that love, Your entire goal is to restore all who will come back to You for eternity. You use ALL things for this purpose. Where the enemy comes to seek to kill, steal and destroy, You come to bring life abundant. The life You bring does not terminate with our physical deaths, but continues on in heaven for all eternity. You, Lord God are AWESOME God because YOU use all tactics of the enemy in order to accomplish Your purposes. When the enemy sought to crucify Jesus, You used it to redeem humanity from eternal separation from You!!
Use today for Your purposes. We ask You to be with Jim and his family in a special, powerful way that can only be from You. We ask for Your peace to be so prevalent that it does not make sense to anyone around this family. We ask this peace to shine through the Robinson family during these difficult circumstances which can only be explained by the existence of YOU. Lord God, we ask for Your power to manifest in the surgery and how it progresses in every step. Let it manifest in a way which gives no other explanation other than the existence of You, our God. Use this surgery and healing time and the way You cause it to go to reveal the reality of who You are at every step along the way.
Let Your Presence accompany this family mightily. Lord God, even as I begin to pray for angels to accompany them, You give me a picture in my mind’s eye of a group of warrior angels surrounding Jim even now, accompanying him wherever he goes. Thank you for Your protection and favor on Jim and his family.
Your comfort, Your peace, Your way - even Your inexplicable joy in all circumstances - be with this family and Your mighty hand upon the surgeons and all who are assigned to his care. This we ask for and in this we believe. You will do the work perfectly and beyond any and all expectations because You alone are indeed GOD. In Jesus’ mighty and precious name, Amen.
(BTW, sometimes the most powerful thing we can do is WORSHIP because our worship causes Him to draw even closer - its what He promises. Therefore His Presence complete with all His attributes increases as well. When we worship - just adoring Him for who He is instead of asking for anything, He comes mightily and releases power His Way, which is all good in light of eternity because He cannot operate in a way contrary to who He is or what He has promised in His Word, the Bible. Worship can be in song, in adoration without words, in words declaring His attributes and how wonderful He is, in attitude in our actions and how we treat others. The past few days I have been spending time in “worship” on behalf of the Robinson family. This might be a way some of you also are called to be in God’s presence on behalf of the Robinson family during this difficult time as well. Just an idea.....
To God be the glory!

I’m lending Jim my angel today. She’s a bit tattered lately, but none the worse for wear. And she is really good!
I put Jim on my “list” and will be in prayer for him. Please keep us posted!
Prayers continue
Prayers up for Jim right here and right now. For a successful operation and a speedy and complete recovery. Prayers too for Shelia, Chris and John and all others concerned with our FRiends recovery and well being. Steady hand and peace of heart.
Thanks for the updates.
Prayers up!
To other FReepers whom I've pinged here: I am away from home and don't have access to my ping lists. PLEASE - if you have any lists, please ping as many FReepers as possible to this thread, and keep the prayers going 'round the clock for JimRob!
I have been invisible around here for awhile, but please let Jim know that I am keeping him in my prayers.
Have you guys seen this? Jim’s having surgery in the morning at 0800 (PST I “think”).
Wonderful... :o)
Prayers up for a true American Hero.
O MERCIFUL God, giver of life and health; Bless, we pray thee, thy servant, Jim, and those who administer to him of thy healing gifts; that he may be restored to health of body and of mind; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
ALMIGHTY God our heavenly Father, we beseech thee graciously to comfort thy servant in his suffering, and to bless the means made use of for his cure. Fill his heart with confidence, that though he be sometime afraid, he yet may put his trust in thee; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
God Bless.
