Done.

Thank you.

I pray for all of those who are having surgery. May God comfort them.

Ladies and gentlemen get ready to pray later on this evening AT 8 PDT, 9 MDT, 10 CDT, 11 EDT as we lift our voices up together to bring these requests and praises to the Lord.

Thank you all for your participation.

[MHGinTN]

Brother, I’m praying that the Lord shows you where He wants you and your family ... He can take care of the rest you might worry over.

[ozaukeemom]

Thank you!

[Monkey Face]

Thank you both for your thoughtfulness.
Because of CFIDS, I will miss the call for prayers, but I want you to know that I’ll ask a special blessing on this group that their prayers will be heard and answered in ways that will be best for us all.
And for all those who have requests, I will say a private prayer for all of you.
I’ll also ask that this thread grows in strength, and that the FReepers involved will be blessed for their faithfulness.

Thanks again for including me.

Thank you for praying for those in need.

I ask your prayers for my beloved twin brother, Ronnie, whose house in Reno recently burnt down. Please pray that the Lord will meet all his and his family’s needs.

I also ask for prayer for my oldest brother, Walt, who is on dialysis and is now in hospital and worried about colon cancer recurrence. May he know Jesus!

Lastly, I ask for prayer for myself. I need a personal spiritual renewal that cuts out the dross in my life. In my flesh I can do nothing. Praise God!

In Jesus’ name

[svcw]

God is our hope and promise. He is in control and He performs miracles. We are part of His family and He loves us. He is concerned about our daily needs, as well as our problems. We need to rest in Him, obey Him, and seek His will daily.

My prayer:

Dear Heavenly Father we lift these requests for healing to Your gracious hands and claim victory for miracles. We praise You this evening for those already answered prayers and miracles already come to completion. We thank You for those that have gathered together to praise Your name. Thank you Dear Lord for Your kindness and love.

Psalm 103:2-5 Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget not all His benefits: Who forgives all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases, Who redeems your life from destruction, Who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, Who satisfies your mouth with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

Jeremiah 17:14 Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed; Save me, and I shall be saved, For You are my praise.

[Osage Orange]

Done.

FRegards,

Dearest Monkey Face,

I wonder if my prayers alone are enough to sustain him.

Praise the Lord you do not have to sustain your son. We agree together to turn the burden to Christ that His will is carried out. That your family is lifted during this trial..

[metmom]

Thanks for the summary of requests. That’s very helpful for praying so that I don’t miss anything.

Is this the thing that’s supposed to start at 11 PM or is that something different?

[MHGinTN]

And all those gathering in His name said ‘Amen’ ...

[MHGinTN]

This the ‘thing’ that starts at 11PM. We are gathering in His name to petition His Grace for these requesting His blessing.

[metmom]

OK. I get it now. Thanks.

I’ll ask for prayer next week.

I still stuggle with believing God will actually help me, I’m not good enough. I hesitate to post here the nature of my needs. I’m afraid my enemies will see them as weakness and pounce upon me, as they have been doing on other threads this week.

Pleas, pray for me to have the courage to ASK for prayer next week.

[MHGinTN]

It may seem strange to some that we are claiming to gather in His name, when we are separated by so many thousands of miles across the globe. But remember that He transcends time and space. He left the burial clothes and stone-bound tomb without rolling the stone away, visited Moses, the three Hebrew boys in the firey furnace, Daniel in the Lion's Den, numerous prophets and praying faithful, and entered rooms without opening a window or door. He is the Great I AM and His Spirit has no bounds. He has promised while speaking to His disciples, "Verily I say to you, that, if two of you may agree on the earth concerning anything, whatever they may ask -- it shall be done to them from my Father who is in the heavens, for where there are two or three gathered together == to my name, there am I in the midst of them." [Matthew 18:19&20]

Being spread so far apart, it is His presence which binds us together in His name! We ask for these, agreeing as His disciples now alive in Him. He ALWAYS keeps His promises, regardless of our worries. And remember, on the day of Pentecost, as the disciples spoke did not the faithful Jewish visitors on pilgrimage to Jerusalem each hear the words in their native language?... Gathering our voices from afar in Him is no big deal to such a God!

[svcw]

Well ColorCountry how can I say this without being misinterpreted.
You aren't good enough, which is why there is Grace - Praise the Lord for that.
We can never be good enough, only God is good.
Praise the Lord for Grace, I'll say it again Praise the Lord for Grace.
We do not need to know your needs God knows your needs and the desire of your heart - Praise God. As far as your enimies we can agree together that they be bound so that they can never hurt you. When God is with you who can prevail - none.

Having said all this I pray for the courage you ask for remembering always that we agree together for your needs to be resolved/healed. Praise the Lord for Grace. Praise God for Grace.

Jeremiah 33:6 Behold, I will bring it health and healing; I will heal them and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.

[svcw]

Amen brother!
