Pinging all Prayer Warriors to a new thread!!

Freeper Ragtime Cowgirl has brought to our attention that there is a Freeper who shall be going to the Middle East soon to perform a special mission. The work this person is involved with is apolitical so it is important that he/she remain anonymous. We shall refer to this person as "A Freeper FRIEND going into harm's way." He/she has requested prayers, which we are grateful to offer.

We have also learned of some special prayer needs which another fellow FReeper has. This FReeper has a track record of supporting our troops with care packages and other ways. The doctors don't know what's wrong with him/her. They've done every test possible and they only think he/she has some kind of auto-immune disease. He/she has only been sick for about a year. We shall refer to this Freeper as "Completely Healed FReeper!"

Blessed Father of Us All,

We have learned of two members of this Forum who have some special prayer needs. We now take a minute to offer up to your care our friends "A Freeper FRIEND going into harm's way." and "Completely Healed FReeper!"

Father, we ask that you will surround AFF during his/her special mission in the ME. Place that spiritual armor around him/her and assign a special angel to be his/her constant companion and guard. Father, we ask that you will grant AFF special insight, wisdom, and the ability to discriminate between friend and foe in split seconds when those seconds count. We are grateful for this friend's willingness to serve the Holy Cause of Freedom. Grant him/her safety and a complete Victory in his/her mission.

Father, we call forth your mercy and healing for our friend, "Completely Healed FReeper!" Surround his/her doctors and let them know what is out of balance in that body! Reach into CHF's body systems and heal at a microscopic level, any and all auto immune problems and their causes and cores. Father, we call forth the binding of all opposition to CHF's mission to support our troops and to perform all other assignments you may have given him/her. Intercede, Father, and grant abundant grace in this entire situation. Grant him/her strength, courage, and oceans of Faith to weather this challenge. We commend him/her into thy care and keeping. Swaddle him/her in a garment of our prayers and your love and healing.

Amen

Rags gave us heads up in a special needs prayer bump on the last thread:

From Ragtime Cowgirl:
Extra prayer bump for the 4th ID. They've had a rough few weeks in Iraq. Accidental fire in an abandoned building, shock from a power line, RPG attacks. These Soldiers have been handling many of the dangerous raids near Tikrit, Saddam's hometown. They have handled many other raids and missions successfully since arriving late (and refreshed!) to Iraq after taking a detour from Turkey through Kuwait. They've more than made up for their late arrival in captured bad guys post Baghdad Liberation Day.

Hi ms, Texokie!

Prayer bump, oh yes!!

I'll pray for our 'Freeper friend' who is going to Iraq. My son could have had a job there as a Chemist. I was SO happy he turned it down.

Praying and agreeing with you.
