    Hello Debra
    This is a wonderful opportunity to be prayed for. And you are blessed that so many people send their requests. We have a lot of work to do here…
    Please pray for my dad, Paul. Pray that his heart and proud will melt and that he will receive Jesus soon.
    Thanks so much, and God bless.

    Debra & Lauren,
    Please remember Heather. We thought she had allergies, but now we think its more serious because shes coughing up green which is a sign of infection. We’re going to be calling the doctor to see what he recommends, but we want to call on the great physician! So we would appreciate your prayers. We hope to see you Friday, She’s really wanting to see you, but it depends on how she’s feeling if we make it or not.

    Love and Prayers,
    Joyce

    Please pray for my mother Marjorie, she has had an unexplained weight loss over the last year of over 60 lbs. She did go to the doctor a few months ago who did a lot of tests and found nothing showing up on the tests that were done.As these tests did not show anything wrong mother said she was obviously fine did not go back to the doctor although she has continued to loose weight. We are all so very worried about her , we did manage to get her to go back to the doctor last week and she has had all sorts of tests done again plus x rays etc, the results of which should come through this week.

    Please pray for Coleton Wright. He is an 8 year old little boy, the grandson of our pastor at the Edinburgh Church of the Nazarene in Edinburgh,In. In December 07 he was diagnosed with a devastating disease of the brain called ALD (Adrenoleukodystrophy) It is the same disorder that the child from the movie Lorenzo’s Oil had. Typically the children only live a couple of years from the time of diagnosis. It only affects boys and is genetically carried from the mother. So you can imagine the hurt this mother is feeling. He will eventually be in a vegitative state before death. He has stopped talking and has a feeding tube now because of swallowing difficulties. Our pastor, his family, and our church family is struggling with this, as we just lost a lady in our church to brain cancer at age 40 in April of 07. Thank you for the healing music through the years. It has touched my life many times, many ways.

    I just got back last night from an amazing mission trip to Iquitos, Peru. I went with a team of 7 women. Praise God we made it through that alone. We witnessed the Glory of God on a daily basis. We held nightly crusades in the town squares and had may people to come and be prayed for. One man was delivered from drugs and 3 men were made sober right before us. A lady had no function in her hand and after prayer it began to function as well as her other hand. Our goal was to meet with the government officials to discuss more about opening a shelter for homeless and battered women. They were so moved that they gave us 10 acres of prime property. Glory to God! Resurrection Faith Ministries is honored to be the vessel that God is using to do a mighty work in this area. Please continue to pray for us as we pursue God’s will for all of us as well as for the ministry.

    I am seventeen years old and probably your biggest fan. I am writing you today to thank all of you who have taken the time out of your busy schedule to pray for my friends. In case anybody who is reading this now did not read my prayer request here is the situation, she is seventeen he is sixteen they are going to have a baby. All I can think is how on earth are they going to do this. Things are really bad in some cases. I chose to believe this baby is a
    gift from God. My prayers are with them, and please I ask that you all continue to pray for them.

    I usually just lurk around on here and read other posts and requests, but I have one that I need to ask.
    I have a friend that I’ve known for years. She lives in TX and she was just in the hospital for 2 days with MRSA. She’s in a lot of pain. She said the sores hurt her so bad and she gets fevers, chills, shakes and is constantly tired. She is dealing with more than one strain of bacteria and if she doesnt keep up on her meds she will die. She might have to deal with it for the rest of her life. She needs a miracle right now. Please pray for her. She’s 23 years old and her name is Rebecca.

    Thank you.

      Jeffery, We are all proud of our soldiers. I keep a list of some of our soldiers that moms and dads have asked us for prayer. Avery and Joseph are on the list. Please let them know we are praying for them and give them this website. Our troops sometimes have access to the internet. It might be a real encouragement to them.

    I just received a phone call from a dear friend telling asking us to pray for a young lady in Texas that we have been aquainted with. She struggles with an eating disorder and is down to 70 pounds. They are putting her in a special hospital because her organs are beginning to shut down. They may have to sell their home to pay the medical bills since their insurance will not cover it. Our first priority is for her healing or she will not survive. She is part of a group that sings. This is devastating to her group and her family. I am praying for all of your requests above and ask for your urgent prayers for this young lady. Her name is Sherri. Let’s not forget to post the praise reports when God answers our prayers.

    Last night we were in Wilkesboro, NC at a concert for the Ebenezar Children’s Home. Please pray for this incredible ministry. They have adopted “The Broken Ones” as their song. It is a cause that is close to my heart and their director Jean Davis is a godly woman that loves and fights for every child that comes in to the home. We were with several other groups last night and when we all met for prayer before the concert, Karen Peck’s mother was mentioned. Sue recently had surgery and a tumor was found. She is undergoing chemo at this posting. Karen and Susan asked for prayer for her. I told her about this site and she said to please put her mom on the prayer list. So, let’s really intercede for Karen and Susan’s mom. I know you will and we are blessed to have such prayer warriors. God bless you all and don’t forget we are lifting your needs up as well.

    Three of the seven foster teens in my home have been send by their dentist for an evaluation for braces. There teeth are very crooked! We heard that Medicaid was not paying for foster kids anymore, but prayed and hoped that was not true. We recived word on Thursday that all three kids have been denied! They are very disappointed and embarrased by their “smile”. I told them God must have another plan to get them braces. Maybe he wants to use His people to do it and allow them the blessing of helping. So . . . please pray with us that God supplies the funds for these kids. Thanks for your faithful prayers.

    I just finished with my skin cancer surgery and they only had to go in twice to get it all. I know I had lots of prayers going out for me and I appreciate them all.

    I have to have the stitches out on Friday and I told the Dr. that I would be at a Southern Gospel concert in Jackson, TN so he went and called a Dr. friend that practices there and arranged for his nurse to take them out for me. I was totally amazed that he would do that for me. God definetely is in control!!!!

    See you in Jackson.

    Hello everyone,
    We have been reading and praying over your requests and I know God is answering many. Please remember to post your praises when your answer comes. I am asking you to pray for two boys. One is Alex 7 months old. He is has hemaphillia and is not doing well. His grandmother Ellen in Virginia asked for your prayers. The other is a teenaged boy Graham. He is the son of Kenna West who wrote Red Letter Day. He is going in for surgery tomorrow in Nashville, for a detached retina. Pray for the surgeons and that God would completely restore his sight in both eyes. Thanks for your faithfulness.

    I told ya’ll about two months ago that my seventeen year old friends were going to have a baby. Well it looks like they are going to have a little girl About a month or so ago I told ya’ll that there was a small chance that she could have a heart defect, well good news I do not think that she has any heart problems, Praise the Lord. I still have my concerns though, because they are only seventeen, I am seventeen and just being that age is hard enough without the difficulty of raising a child. My friend has always had a hard life, whenever a problem arose for some reason or another she would run from her problems. She is still finding it easier to run than to face her problems, they are talking about moving because they want a fresh start, but I do not think that they realize that leaving this is not going to solve their problems they arejust running away again. I would like to see them get married and raise their daughter up going to church. I have a gut feeling that I hope and pray is wrong, but I am afraid when that baby gets to be to much to handle she will run away from her own child, and that scares me. My gut feelings about her have not been wrong yet, but I reall do hope this one is. I do not want to see her make a mistake that cannot be fixed. I really do hope that they make it as parents, but she did not have the best example to show her. Please continue to pray for them as they have to walk this road that they have chosen.

    HEY ALL!!! Just wanted to post a big THANK YOU to the Talley Trio for coming to Columbus. People are still talking about that concert. You guys brought the house down. I had a guy at church Sunday say that no one could out sing that Lauren Talley….I totally believe him. Debra everytime you sing or even speak there is such peace that just fills my soul.

    Just so you know, Kay got saved. How awesome is that! For a person to have never gone to a Christian concert, she fit right in. Praisin the Lord and all, it was so awesome. I believe she was the reason why the concert had to wait until August. I love the Lord and love what he has done for me. My spirit feels so charged up and I really needed it!!!

    Well much love guys…you all are a real blessing and a true talent.

    I’d like you to pray for a family I know. Their family member was found last week after missing for four years.
    There will be a memorial service next weekend. I didn’t really know him I knew one his brother’s family and his sister’s family and his parents when I was much younger. I last saw the ones I know in his family about two years ago.
    Honestly it’s bothering me more than I thought it would when I first found out about it the other day. It kind of brings back old memories and makes me feel a little helpless too. My cousin was a similar situation he had only been missing for maybe a week. My cousin was a young man at the time in the early 80’s. Their brother was a much older man. I also have a niece that to my knowledge is still missing since last November. She is in her
    early 30’s.
    I’m asking you to agree with me that God will give us all peace of mind, will give me personal instruction on how to show sympathy to this family that I care about and that I will hear something about my nieces whereabouts soon.

    I could use prayer right now. I recently moved out of state back to where I had been living a couple of years ago. I am staying with relatives until I get a full time job, but am having trouble finding one. I also have to deal with homosexual struggles/desires, and coupled with the job situation, I am very discouraged and depressed. If anyone has a minute to pray for me, I’d appreciate it.

    Dear Struggling, Just want you to know I read your posting & have prayed & will continue to pray for you. II Corinthians 4:8 & 9 reads: We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed. With this in mind hold on to the promises that although troubles (depression, struggles, temptation etc)come our way we are overcomers thru the Lord Jesus.

    Hang in there

    I would like to ask prayer for my mom today. The doctors have found a cyst on one of her ovaries and are very concerned. She has had all the cancer blood work done and is going in for a scan today. She will probably not know the results for at least another week or so. Our family is praying and we know God can heal her if there is anything wrong and give her and us the comfort that is needed; but i am just anxious to know something and trying not to think the worst. I would appreciate all of your prayers as my family waits to hear from all the tests..THANKS SO MUCH! God Bless!
