Little Prayer Box: Online Prayers of intercession

Having been born again in the 1980's we sinfully did some backsliding earlier this year, living outside of God's will, we got into smoking marijuana and sold a couple of bags to a "friend" who turned us in. We were arrested and charged with "possession of marijuan with intent to deliver" We KNOW we made a mistake and sinned. We confessed our sin to God,repented and gave up using drugs of any kind. Also turned our lives back over to God and ask Jesus to guide our steps daily. The prosecutor in the case is VERY hardhearted and is not willing to work with us in any way, eventhough it is a first offence! He is not willing to release any of our impounded property ( motorcycles,computers,cameras, etc. that WERE NOT purchased by or used in any "drug transactions") the amount of marijuana was very minimal that we had. Please pray that God will soften the prosecutors hard heart, and bless us with divine favor. That our lawyer would do the best possible job he can, and he will let God lead him ( he is a christian) We pray for favor in the judges eyes, and that the perfect will of Almighty God is brought to pass! We KNOW we messed up!!! We thank Jesus for His forgiveness! We ask God to intervene and change hearts, and to bless us with minimal punishment ( as we have greatly punished ourselves over all this) we never sold marijuana to others, just these "friends" whom we HAVE forgiven

I want whoever' God fearing people to pray for my beloved country.

Poeple may not aware of what is called Myanmar(Burma) or may know nothing about it.

Please prey for us.
We have been trying to have a baby for a few years now and we have not been blessed with a child yet. We are at an age that we are watching all our friends having children, even my mother inlaw has had a beautiful little girl last year. It is breaking our spirits to be left on the side lines when we know that we will make wonderful parents. I know this may be a selfish prayer but it is something that we would love to experiance with all our hearts. We are starting to feel as though we being punished and its heart breaking. Please pray for us and the child we so badly want and our faith.

Thank you so very much

Here is an e-mail I just got from my mother. Its about my father's sister in Michigan.  Her name is Susan.

Please pray for Susan.  She had surgery Monday and the pathology report following surgery came back that 10 of 11 lymph nodes removed, showed cancer.  This puts her in a situation where the chances of her cancer metastasizing are great and the outlook medically is not very good.

Of course we know that God is not a God of chance—but he is sovereign and in control.  Please pray for Susan (and Dave) for peace in the midst of the trial of their life.  Please pray for God to completely heal her, if it is His will.

Thanks, Verl and Bernice 

Please pray the Gods will be done - we all love her so much and will miss her!

thanks for your time,

This is my prayer request:

            My wife and I met on Christian Café’ (a Christian based dating site) on December 9, 2007.  I lived in Columbus, OH. and she lived in Granger, IN.  She had been married and divorced approximately 5 yrs. prior to us meeting and had two teenage boys.  I had been married twice before and no children.  We spoke with one another 7 hours the first time we talked to one another and I went to IN that very next weekend.  We saw each other every weekend but one, until we were married on September 13, 2008.  I moved from Columbus, OH. to Granger IN because Indiana law stated: if she had moved out of state, she would have lost all custody rights to her kids.  My job in Columbus allowed me to keep my job and work out of the home, which was a blessing.  

Prior to getting married, our pastor recommended a marriage mentoring class, which we had taken together.  We also attended church on a regular basis right from the start of our relationship.  We both agreed that we had wanted a God-centered marriage!  My wife’s previous marriage was both verbally and physically abusive and I recognized that she was highly sensitive and very emotional right from the start.  I’m not sure if she actually took time to work out any of the baggage she brought with her to the marriage.  Both of my wives from my previous marriages ended-up leaving me for other men, therefore I was bringing extra baggage into this relationship as well, which I had not dealt with either.

For the first time, I thought I had married a woman who was finally going the same direction I wanted to go for so many years and was being held back from, and that was growing closer to our one and only, Jesus Christ.

Once we were married and actually living together and settled in, we just weren’t getting along like we had been when we were seeing each other only on the weekends.  I had become a new step-dad and reality just seemed to slap us in the face.  The first few months were great, and then we just seemed to fight like cats and dogs.  Nothing physical at all and there wasn’t any name calling.  Just arguments only, that eventually escalated to the point where my wife felt that I was verbally abusing her just like her previous husband used to, which I didn’t realize it had gotten to that point for her.  We had gone to see a counselor once together and then each of us had gone separately once or twice after the first visit together.  My wife for some reason felt it had escalated verbally to a point that she had asked me to leave the home on Friday, July 24, 2009 and to take all of my belongings with me.  She actually had a court order issued against me forcing me out of the house that day.  In addition, my employer would no longer allow me to work for them if I was leaving this particular residence.  We have been separated since July 24^th and I was served Dissolution of Marriage paperwork the following Monday. 

I had called the pastor who married us and his strong counsel was: that we had entered a covenant with God and with one another, and even if we had to be separated for a while until we worked things out, that he expected us to honor our vows to God.  He also stated he stood 18 inches away from us on our wedding day and heard both of us promise to God that we would keep our covenant to love and forgive one another until death do us part.  He also recommended that we both find a Godly Christian Psychologist in our areas, both of us pay to get a battery of psychological tests done, and work hard with these results of our testing with the Psychologist who did the testing, with a Christian Counselor, with our church, our mentor couples, our pastors, our accountability partners…with all the resources at our disposal in our areas TO CHANGE.  He said that change was the normal Christian life, as our goal is to change daily into the image of Christ.  He said the glaring realization to him about our crisis is that we must use this trial to change, and God wants us to change so that we learn to love one another well.

My prayer to anyone who reads this is that I love my wife dearly and I am hoping for a divine intervention.  We both have old baggage we must deal with, I recognize that, however, when I text my wife, even if it’s just to tell her that I love her and I hope her day is going well, I get nothing!  There is absolutely no communication on her part whatsoever. 

I finally got a chance to speak with her yesterday, only because I had asked her on several occasions that I really needed to speak with her.  When I got to talk with her, I had already put my feelings down on a five page letter (the holy spirit moved me to do this just in case I didn’t get to talk with her right away, so I wouldn’t forget what I wanted to say) and I shared this with her.  There were no feelings from her after I was finished, it’s as though she has already made up her mind and she is going through with the dissolution and there is nothing I can do about it. 

I have been praying that between the strong counsel from our pastor and with the hour-long conversation I had with her in sharing my feelings, that she would strongly re-consider reconsiling and that God would bring her back into my arms again.  Technically she has only given this marriage 10 months and now she just wants to run away as if it never existed.  From speaking with the counselor and other individuals, they are beginning to wonder if her walls ever came down from her first marriage and it is easier running this time than actually dealing with the problem.  I’m not pointing fingers, but as the pastor has said, both of us can’t continue to run away from our relationships when things get bad anymore or this will continue to be a pattern of failed marriages. 

I love my wife dearly and I pray for reconsiliation!  I want those of you who are reading this to pray for my wife and I and that my wife reconsiders her decision of dissolving this marriage.  She is the love of my life and I can’t imagine my life without her!  Thank you in advance for your support!  If anyone reading this knows of a good Christian Psychologist in the Columbus, OH. area, I would be greatful for the referral!
