TAKING PRAYER REQUESTS

TAKING PRAYER REQUESTS

You are invited to leave prayer requests here.  Prayer is the second most important tool the warrior of Christ has, the first being salvation through the blood of Jesus.  As we get to know our Lord, we see how the spiritual is connected to the physical.  Prayer is powerful.

James 5

 13) Is any one of you in trouble?  He should pray.  Is anyone happy?  Let him sing songs of praise.  14) Is any one of you sick?  He should call the elders of the church to pray over him and anoint him with oil in the name of the Lord.  15) And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well;  the Lord will raise him up.  If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.  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.

Matthew 18:19

Where two of you on earth agree about any matter that you pray for, it will be done for you by My Father in heaven.

JOIN US IN PRAYING

   If you will, please keep our church congregation in your prayers.  We have 8 of us out with the COVID.  Three  of them are severe:  Donna F., Darrel C., and his wife Gerri.  Also their son, Coy and their neighbor Robbin.  The others with COVID are Goldie F., and Wanda B.  Wanda B. is in the hospital with it.  We also have one member who's legs were ran over with a lawn mower (Bobby B.).  Karen W. needs prayer also, for some serious GI issues.   

   I have also received an urgent prayer request for Nicole M. who is at the hospital currently giving birth.  We understand the baby is also in need.  It has been a difficult pregnancy, for sure and I am praising G-d they have been able to postpone the birth until now.

   Thank you all for your help.

UPDATE 7/29/21:  Nicole and baby came through the delivery beautifully.  No hemorrhaging for her and the baby did not require NICU!  We have an awesome G-d!

   I was informed today that our Pastor, Brother Jonathan, also has the COVID.  Donna F. is his wife.  They have five children; all are still living at home.  Please pray for them.  And if you are not in fellowship with G-d, please make things right with Him so He will answer your prayers.  I feel like Elijah on this one:  "of all of the prophets, I am the only one left."  I know I am not the only one praying, but it feels like a huge responsibility, like I am in charge of healing everyone.  But I know I'm not.  I do know The One who is.  Thank you for all of your help.

UPDATE 7/31/21:  It with a heavy heart that I relay the news that during the battle with COVID, Wanda B. was called home.  Please pray for her family and friends.

UPDATE  8/2/21:  Nicole's baby wasn't doing quite as well as we were lead to believe.  He lost two pounds and has been referred to a pediatric specialist.  Mommies are already stressed during childbirth, so this news is taking it's toll on Nicole.  Please keep them in your prayers for peace for her and for healing for him.  thank you.

   I also learned today that Marvin B. went to the hospital for low oxygen levels.  Please pray for his recovery and for his family to cope.  Thank you for that, too.

UPDATE:  8/3/21  My great niece and great great niece has been confirmed with COVID:  Brooklin T. and Marissa T.  Please add them to your prayers. Thank you.

   I have received word that Darrel C. was taken to the ER this afternoon to monitor oxygen levels and that Gloria R. has been hospitalized with the COVID.  I did not even know she was sick.  Please keep all of these in your prayers, as well as the congregation of Beulah Land Baptist Church of Cleveland, Texas.  They have been hit pretty hard with the COVID, also.  Thank you all, again, for your continued help with this.

   Please also keep Nicole and her husband, Anthony M. in your prayers as they are losing a lot of sleep trying to care for the newborn (Ezekiel).  He is not tolerating his feedings well and is losing weight.  This is in addition to other issues he is having.  They have two older children who also need attention from their parents.  These are trying times, for sure.  Thank you all who take the time and make the commitment to pray for all of these.

UPDATE:  8/4/21  I was informed that today Donna F. was hospitalized with low oxygen levels.  I also learned that Gloria R. has passed. Baby Ezekiel is not doing good, either, as he has lost half of his body weight.  Please keep all of these and their families in your prayers.  Thank you so much.

UPDATE:  8/5/21  Mrs. Lillian B. is on her way to the hospital this morning for complaints of chest pain.  Please pray for her healing and to be restored to our church family.  

    Little Ezekiel has had some slight improvement overnight.  He has been able to eat about 3 ounces of formula and rested better.  

Thank you all for your continued prayers.

UPDATE:  8/11/21  I have learned that Marvin B. continues to improve; Darrel C. is improving slightly; Donna F. is expected to be discharged from the hospital with oxygen soon; Brother Jonathan is better, just weak; Bobby B. has also contracted the virus in addition to his leg issues; Mrs. Lillian B. received no medical diagnosis for what is going on with her and it continues (uncontrolled leg movements, even when she is walking).  However, G-d put someone in her path who told her of a medication they were taking for uncontrolled movements and she is going to consult her doctor to see if she might benefit from it.

   We have an entire family who is positive for the virus:  Jake and Amber Q. as well as 4 of their children:  Laysee, Kayleigh, Ryland, and Maggie.  Also Amber's dad, Eric S. has it.  Eric does not live in the same household.

   My niece and great niece also are infected:  Brooklin T. and Marissa.  but they are not severe.

   I will post an update on Nicole and family as soon as I hear back from them.

Please continue your prayers for all of these people.  Our prayers are working.  Thank you.

UPDATE:  8/16/21  About the family who is infected with the virus:  Jake went to the ER for low oxygen.  He was having very bad dizzy spells, tummy pains, fever, cough/congestion but was released to home with some prescriptions.  Amber's symptoms are similar with a lot of dizziness, terrible headache, eye pain, congestion, fever, and body aches/pains.  As for the children, Laysee is fever free and feeling better but has a lingering cough; Maggie is feeling much better, as is Ryland.  Kaylegh isn't able to hold down much food and is still dealing with bad congestion.  Jacob has a headache and an occasional tummy ache.

I saw Bobby B. this weekend.  He was sent home with blood thinners for the blood clots in his lungs, and medication for the pneumonia.  His legs are doing better.

Brooklin T. and Marissa are both negative and resuming their lives.

None of my Pastor's family were at church yesterday.

UPDATE: 8/21/21  Baby Ezekiel is doing so much better, as he has gained a pound in one week!  Praise God for His mercy!  The parents are coping as best as any could.   She has long term chronic health issues, and he has his health issues, also.  The other two children seem to be doing ok.

It is with a heavy heart that I am reporting that we have another member of our congregation who was called home:  Mrs.  Hanne.  She had fallen months ago and broke her hip.  She was 96 years old and such a survivor!

We will have corporate worship this Sunday and expect our Pastor and his family to be there.  We had a visiting Pastor last Sunday.  I miss our first family of our church.  😢

I don't know how Beulah Land Church is doing but please keep them in your prayers.  I KNOW GOD IS PREPARING US FOR A MASSIVE ASSIGNMENT.   

Thank you, again, for all of the prayers.

If you have any prayer requests, please leave them in the comments.  You see how I modify your personal information.  If this is not acceptable, you can request for me to not publish your request at all.  Thank you.

   I have been so excited today.  I learned that Donna F. has been given her eyesight back!  G-d has healed her!  I don't think I had posted on this site about this issue, but it has been heavy on my heart and I have been praying constantly for her.  I have certainly been spontaneously giving Him praises for answered pray ALL day long!

   I went to buy a sandwich this afternoon and the owner of the establishment asked me to pray for his sister, Peggy G.  He said she was diagnosed with a "weak heart".  Please join me in praying for her.  I also prayed that G-d would use this time to stir those family members who have not accepted Jesus as their personal Savior to do so.  

   Thank you for always praying with us.  Blessings to you.
