(10/21/2000) pray for the site


Hello prayer warriors, 1. Prayer note: pray for the site [James 5:16] Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective. Two days ago, I had difficulty accessing the site. I emailed the web-hosting company many times and they said that our site has been giving their server problems. We have not changed any programs for some time now, so we are really baffled. We have tried our best to trouble-shoot but it has been difficult coordinating with them. They have taken down the site at the moment and for some moments yesterday I felt quite helpless. Then I received some encouraging emails from our prayer warriors. The first person to email me was Nadine and she gave me such encouraging words, I cried. So, I've decided, since we are having so much difficulty here, we will move to a new web-hosting company and put up the site up again. This brings to mind something that I have learned. When I first joined this church, the pastors called for intercessors and people to pray for them for 15 minutes a day. I find this to be such a powerful ministry because we need to pray for those above us, whom God has given to cover us. If the enemy is to attack something good that God has given us, he will probably go and attack the head first. When I started this ministry, I consulted one of my pastors and she said that I myself would need a lot of prayer if I was to coordinate a prayer group. We have all been busy at the site doing so many things and praying for many people but we have not been praying for the site. So, now, I'm asking everyone of you, if you feel led to, to pray for the site, for all the members and prayer warriors of the site (especially for those of us who have been actively interceding for the rest) and to pray for me that I will continue to press on to what God has given us here. I'm going to borrow some of Nadine's words here: "I miss everyone at My Devotion! But God willing, we'll be back, and I believe He can do it." 2. New prayer requests: I'm still receiving new prayer requests through email. If you have prayer requests, please email me and I will try to maintain the prayer email so that we can all still keep in touch. If you want to post a reply to any prayer requests, email me and I will post your replies personally to the emails of the people requesting prayer. i. please pray for us -- mel The Lord has given a vision of opening up a resort for inner healing. We are seeking God for wisdom & direction. Our church is 40 minutes away from our home, my husband feels like maybe the Lord is wanting us to move to Naples FL. Is this the church God really wants us at? We need to have a bigger van, my son Isaac who was diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy at birth his wheelchair is now too big for our van. My husband is a loan officer & just got his license, he needs figure out if he is going to start up his own office or go with a company that is already in business & if that be the case which one? The Lord told my husband a long time ago that he would be a preacher his heart is for inner city kids/ families. My x husband & his wife plan on taking me back again to court to try to take my oldest son away from me. I am wanting for Gods perfect will to be in our lives. Pray for us & if God shows you any thing please share. ii. new job -- gmles I'm starting a new job tomorrow. Please pray for me. I know that the Lord's hand has been on this - I just finished college in December, at the age of 50! He's led me every step of the way, but I still feel a little anxious. I guess it's the idea of something new in my life. iii. prayer needed for a friend's daughter -- lisa101 The daughter's name is Becky. She is young, about 24 & she has 2 sons ages 5 & 2. Becky has never been married to either father though both men were abusive to her & her children have suffered through witnessing the physical abuse & fighting. It seems that Becky has very low self esteem & has a pattern of choosing abusive men. Becky's parents have always been very loving & supportive & are strong Christians, but they are at their wits end. Pray for Becky, for her children, for her parents & also for current boyfriend who is also abusive. Especially for salvation for Becky & her boyfriend. iv. Bradley needs your prayers -- christiandeb My little grandson is in hospital with suspected Meningitis. He has just undergone a lumbar puncture, & is on a drip. He is only two years of age. This little boy has already had, many serious medical problems, so please find it in your heart to pray for him. v. Pray for me -- glory I can't pull up the website tonight. Don't know why. Please pray that my husband gets saved soon. I don't know how much more I can take. I know that the believer is supposed to stay with the nonbeliever, but this is harder than it should be. I'm so discouraged right now. Please pray for me. 3. Prayer update: i. Praise report! Michelle Baker -- bina Michelle has been upgraded from a critical status to serious status!! Praise Jesus!!! She is still on life support & in trauma icu, however God is moving & touching. Keep praying lost souls will be won for the Glory of God through this trial. ii. Praise report -- guest I would like to thank all of you who prayed for my full restoration to christ!! It has been done!!! God is still blessing right now. My tears of Sorrow- Have been filled with Tears of Joy!! Please continue to pray, I feel God calling me to the ministry, Pray that God will reveal his will for me. I want to be used as a vessel, So that I may win souls for Christ!! 4. Number of prayer warriors: 503 in Christ, waihun
