Prayers Request Thread!

Heather225 September 1st, 2023

We all face moments of struggle and uncertainty at some point in our life journey. It can help to know that there are people out there thinking about you and rooting for you.

This thread is a dedicated space for prayer requests and support. Whether you're going through a personal crisis, facing health concerns, or other difficulties, you can ask for an empathetic ear, offer prayers, or just comforting words. If you'd like a specific kind of support, please do mention it with your share. You can say as much or as little as you like about your situation. (It can be as simple as "please pray for x", "please send me strength/blessings/vibes", "please keep me in your thoughts", "send beams" etc!)

For those who are willing, please consider extending your support to fellow members. Your compassion and words of encouragement can provide solace and strength to someone in need. Let's come together as a community to lift each other up in times of hardship.

Reminder
Please be mindful when posting in the forums, particularly in discussions around religion. Ensure that all posts are respectful, kind and productive. Flag a post for review by forum moderators by clicking the flag option in the lower right hand corner of the post if you feel it is inappropriate, offensive or goes against our forum guidelines.

Please, anyone who sees this and is kind enough, please, send prayers for my little grandson who is ill.
I cannot pray for a person of a different religion, it's forbidden, so if you could pray for a Christian Roman Catholic boy who is ill, I would be eternally grateful.

Thank you so much for both this thread and the prayers.

Hi Straw! 😊 ❤️ I bowed my head and I prayed for you as well as your grandson, over my key board and in front of this screen.

As an aside, thank you for being such an amazing human being! Even though you may have your current struggles, worries and concerns (as many do), you don't let that stop you from being kind, compassionate, empathetic and a great example to others here on the platform! It's been noted. I appreciate you and more than you may know! ❤️

Again, thank you for being such a great example to others! ❤️

Hi.
You 4 prayed for me (site 2 here) so I send this note to you. After hearing a Christian message today I got this revelation: Jesus Christ has been there every moment when I have been suffering for these 18 years. He has seen every tear, every thought and every feeling. This acceptance is very good for me. It makes me feel safe, seen and gives me a lot of comfort. If I ever go back in my thoughts to these years in my mind; I can think: "Jesus Christ was there". I think also it will bring a lot of good energy to my brain. Hebrews 4:15 (The Bible) "For we do not have a high priest (Jesus Christ) who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are."

Hi Helgafy! 😊 ❤️ Thank you so very much for your beautiful message, for tagging me and for giving me such a beautiful gift today 🎁.

I could not agree with you more! Yes, Jesus Christ has been there every moment. I, in turn, have a gift 🎁 for you as well. I love this poem and it speaks to exactly what it was that you just said.

The Footprints Prayer

One night I had a dream…

I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord, and
Across the sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand; One belonged to me, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of my life flashed before us, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that many times along the path of my life, There was only one set of footprints.

I also noticed that it happened at the very lowest
and saddest times in my life
This really bothered me, and I questioned the Lord about it.
“Lord, you said that once I decided to follow you,
You would walk with me all the way;
But I have noticed that during the
most troublesome times in my life,
There is only one set of footprints.
I don’t understand why in times when I
needed you the most, you should leave me.

The Lord replied, “My precious, precious
child. I love you, and I would never,
never leave you during your times of
trial and suffering.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you.

*hugs* ❤️😇

Helgafy: @ThatChristLover@SparkyGizrmo@LyricalAngel170,@RogueOne1983

I am asking for prayer, for I feel that I am losing my way and my trust in my Lord. I feel that so much has caused my wavering faith that my hope is that some of you pray that I can once again find trust in God and try to make sense of the way I feel he has let me down and not shown me His love in a way that I feel He cares. I am so ashamed that this is happening but it is. The Church seems to have in many ways lost us by trying to keep us imprisoned by traditions and doctrines that we are not looking to God as we should. I am supposed to be a child of God and not to the Pastors to do their bidding.

The Scriptures say that children are a gift of God, I don't understand how he allowed a child to be conceived violently and then let me keep him only to lose him. I don't understand how He did not rescue me when I needed Him. I know I should just accept this but I have been covering up my real feelings but I know he knows. Trust and Faith are on the line as I keep trying not to allow it.

Everyone's prayers would be of great value to me at this point in my life or any help to make sense of it all.🙏🏽❤️I don't want to have these feelings, nor do I want to fall by the wayside but I am battling.

I feel it's okay to feel how you do, and question the whys behind the challenging experiences you've had, you certainly did not deserve being mistreated so much. :( Everyone's relationship with their faith in their God can be different. It's so inspiring that you're seeking support and prayers in strengthening your faith again, and I truly hope your heart feels lighter as you continue building your relationship with your God. Sending lots of love and blessings your way!❤

Friend.

I also can find it hard to trust in God. When you feel you're wavering, this is what God says: “I will never leave you nor forsake you” (Hebrews 13:5). I watch GodTV and also I get a verse from the Bible online each day to lean on.

I think we cannot always feel God's presence. He showed his love by giving us Jesus Christ on the cross so we are blameless before God because Jesus Christ bore our sins.

I'm very sorry for the violence that was made towards you. That's terrible. And also that you lost your child. That's terrible. Many persons go through very hard things in this world and there was nobody to rescue you when you needed it. That's very hard to accept.

You're battling friend. I'm battling also each day. Maybe you can read the poem SparkyGizmo wrote to me on site 3.

I'll pray for you today.

I will be praying for Gods peace during this hard time. You know, God allows challenges for a reason they strengthen us and draw us closer to Him. He is always with you, He sees you in this difficult time. And He hurts with you. He is waiting with open arms for you to pour out these feelings to Him, and to abide in Him. I know how difficult it is, but trust me He is with you every moment. “surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life”. Prayers for you friend ❤️ 🙏

Thank you dear WorkingThrough! Your honesty and transparency is encouraging. It is not easy to be that upfront and frank with people (especially IRL, for me). And I do know that God hears your honesty too. As you mentioned, God already knows what you are dealing with and how your trust and faith is not where you know He would like it to be ... but be encouraged dear one! God knows your heart, he knows your struggle, he knows what you really want and how you are struggling right now.

I will certainly lift up you and these situations in prayer. God knows what is THE best, even when it doesn't feel like it or when situations feel really *** or awful as we are here on Earth (reminder to myself there too!) And dearest @WorkingitThrough2 , God loves you right now, in the middle of this season, in the middle of your doubt and questions, right exactly where you are, this very second, God loves you!

Church people hated Jesus so much they started a riot to get the authorities to give Him the humiliating death of a criminal.

@WorkingitThrough2

Thank you so very much for asking! 😊 ❤️ When I said I was "praying over my key board and in front of this screen" my meaning was that I am on my computer, my lap top. I use the key board (qwerty) to type words that appear on our screens 😊.

I think that is so very incredibly kind that your daughter and grandson use their musical gifts and talents to give back to others In a Church setting! ❤️

To answer your question though, I don't currently play any musical instruments. I used to play trumpet, french horn, as well as violin. I was also asked to sing on a competitive level while in high school, against those in college, simply because my music teacher (in the public school system) asked that I do so. (oh my 😳 ) I assure you, no grand trophy was won for doing that, lol 😊. It was a unique experience however to sing in some incredibly beautiful cathedrals with fantastic acoustics.

While I no longer play and only sing in the shower, lol 😊 (again, great acoustics) I love music and all genres. I try to find value in it all.

Do you find ways to enjoy music? If so, in what ways? Do you enjoy listening, singing or playing instruments?

I was singing with two Gospel groups and I played a mean Tamborine. My husband plays a guitar and also sings with a gospel group. After Covid hit I basically was struggling with my faith after being witness to so much stuff going on in the body of Christ I fell back and began to doubt everything.

I enjoy singing and have since I was a child, I sang in the Gleet clubs and talent shows. I still sing upon request but just felt that right now I was not a good witness for the Lord. Thank you for asking😊❤️

My dearest,

Please accept my apologies as I have been away from 7 Cups and couldn't pray for you instantly. Nonetheless, I'm glad that I came across your request and I'm super happy that you trusted me with praying for you.

My heart goes out to you as you have suffered a lot. Also, all your feelings of distress, frustration, and exhaustion truly make sense. Believe me, if I were at your place, I would just stumble and fall on the first step itself. You are braver than you think, you are stronger than you could ever imagine!

The Almighty God has His beautiful ways of doing things and planning people's lives. What may seem like suffering may be a blessing in reality. People losing lives in jolts of earthquakes doesn't make sense at all. However, it's possible that people who had to suffer would be blessed with way above and beyond in unimaginable ways in their future.

I know your feelings as I have been there too. I just wanna tell you that we don't know why you had to go through so much in life. Nevertheless, please know that even if it may not seem so, God loves you come what may. I agree with you that when we are going through tough times, it's hard to get an answer to Why me?

But please hang on in there! I pray that may God bless your soul with serenity and help you stay connected to Him in the best way possible for you, Ameeen ♥️💯

Much love,

Hi Helgafy! 😊 ❤️ I'm so very glad that you enjoyed the poem (prayer) that I provided for you here on this thread! Thank you for letting me know that I'm on the right path to bring to you comfort and joy and in all of the right ways! You have no idea how very much that means to me! *high fives* 😊 and big *hugs* ❤️

Thank you, too for your special gift of scripture to me today 🎁. I enjoyed reading it. Thank you for taking the time to do that for all of us! I appreciate you! ❤️

*high fives* 😊 for reaching out to Glen for clarification on what it is that he would like to see here on the platform. (His house, his rules! 😁❤️. Same goes for H. Their house, their rules! 😁❤️) This is a new thread as well as a new sub community being recently established.

I think it's a wonderful thing that has been provided for all of us. I'm confident that the community leaders knew going into this, at first blush, that we would have, what I call "growing pains" in our ways of potentially engaging with one another. I'm confident that they were well aware, that there could be questions as well as needed reminders of how we should treat one another as human beings. 😇

The team is doing a great job with providing forum posts, iterating the "rules of engagement" and I'm glad that you have felt supported with getting answers with what we are allowed to provide for others! 😊 ❤️

Lastly, thank you again, my sweet friend! ❤️

One thing I say often here on the site, if it's warranted is that "The magic happens around here every day. Either we see it, or we create it. " ✨ It's even better if we are able to do both. Thank you for being a special magic maker that can see it as well. Abracadabra! ✨

Welcome back Angel! 😊❤️ I'm so happy to see you! Thank you so very much for asking! ❤️ I'm doing so much better now! My procedure went well and the results came back that there is no cancer! It was a place on my face, a "beauty mark" lol 😊 a.k.a. a mole that was a getting a bit out of hand.

I'm happy it's gone, nothing to worry about now and it is healing up nicely!

I'm hoping your exams went well my sweet friend! ❤️

*hugs* ❤️😇

Oh my God, I can't even imagine how one single thing can lead us to think of Cancer whereas it wasn't even near that. I know how scary it must have been for you. However, I'm delighted that it was just a mole and nothing to worry about. You are so brave for getting it checked and for agreeing to do the tests, and see the doctor promptly. I'm so much proud of you.

I know of so many cases in my practice that patients get scared reading certain diagnoses on the internet and self-diagnosing. I have seen patients even losing their lives just based on their fear. May God save us all and help us make the right decision at the right time, Ameeeen 😢♥️

As for me, my exams went well I'm just nervous cuz I want to get good grades for my Ph.D. 🙈

I'm also waiting for some of my applications that were rejected and I had to reapply. 😭

Hi Angel! 😊 ❤️ I could not agree with you more my friend! Sometimes moles can take on different shapes, become larger, etc. and physicians can become worried that it is cancerous so I do have to take them seriously. I did what I was told to do.

I went into it with good thoughts, was expecting a hopeful outcome, just knew it was going to be removed and I let those in charge do their good work with the biopsy.

I don't worry until someone tells me that it's ....time to worry 😊. Worrying about tomorrow many times can steal our joy from today. I was glad that it was removed, it was unsightly and I went about my business and when the phone call came that I am fine, I was happy even though that wasn't something that I was dwelling on.

I agree also that it must be a bit frustrating when you see those in your practice that are self diagnosing by reading things on the internet as it's best to let a clinician or many of them make their appraisal of the situation. It must break your heart at times to see others getting overly worried and too early. (I put this in the category of "unnecessary suffering"). ❤️

I will keep you in my prayers 😇. I prayed for you just now. Don't let the rejecters or Nay-sayers keep you down! Keep going, keep applying!

You can gewguulll :) search this one, but I think it may have been Michael Jordan that was rejected and told he wasn't good enough to play on his high school basketball team. 😳 Shocking!

There is the guy on youtube that goes by Dr. K. I have listened to some of his pod casts. He's quite good. I think he said he applied to school like over 150 times before he was finally accepted. His family told him to stop trying, but he didn't. Woooooooooo-hoooooooooo, look who is winning now? 😊

keep going my friend! *high fives* 😊 and big *hugs* ❤️

I appreciate you! ❤️ I believe in you! ❤️

A fine Bibleverse:

Ephesians 6:10-17 NIV

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.

@Heather225

We have this small, cosy prayer-place here, nearly like a little chapel. Here we meet to praise the Lord and ask him for help. And as he said, (Matthew 18:20): "For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." Think of that - Jesus Christ is walking among us and this is what he says he's he doing, (Luke 4:18-19): “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. (I think poor in all ways, psychologically, etc.). He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners (I think the same as above here) and recovery of sight for the blind (I think the same here), to set the oppressed free (and I think the same here), to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

@Helgafy Love this!!

SparkyGizmo September 14th, 2023

@Helgafy

Helgafy........oh my gosh! 😊 ❤️ You have noooooooooo idea how much I love this! I cannot thank you enough for providing this scripture.

This truly what was in the back of my mind when H initially created this forum post. I didn't say it, but I thought it and I felt it! There are many translations of the Bible as well as opportunities to study it. Based on ones studies, there can be different "take away's" and interpretations for the meaning of it all for each of us as human beings.

For me, it means.....Where two or more come together "in My Name", then a Church is born/formed. A "church" can be formed anywhere through prayer. My God doesn't require for me to sit on a church pew bench each Sunday in a brick and mortar building. I like to think of Him as come one and come all, one that is accepting and loving of each and every one of us, no matter what! ❤️

Everyone can have a different way of speaking to Him, connecting with Him as well as what their concept of a Church may be.

As for me, I like the concept of "living my church". I try to do my best daily. While I love this thread, interestingly enough, I'm not what would be considered to be an over the top "Bible Thumper" (even though I have read the Bible at least 3 times over, cover to cover). I have gone on a spiritual journey long ago.

I have recognized that many of us have simply been "born" into certain religions. I think that is great. For me, I wanted to take the "tour" and investigate all other religions. To see what true spirituality meant to me with out it being a "forced issue" that was simply handed down generationally.

I'm so glad that I did that as I feel as if that through my spiritual journey, I have a better understanding now. While I may have come straight back to "baseline" as to my core belief system, I have pulled from other religions and have embraced many of those concepts as well.

The majority of the worlds most prolific religions boil down to one simple tenant...."love one another". I am so very happy to do so! ❤️

*hugs* ❤️😇

@Helgafy

Thank you so very much Helgafy! 😊❤️ I certainly do hear you my friend.

For me, there is unity in diversity. This is a prayer thread and I would never want for it to be potentially "off putting" to those of different faiths in our community that might want to come here, to seek comfort and to be prayed for as well. I never like to see things as an "us against them" or "we are the only" as I have no idea how others might be embracing their own personal spirituality and ultimately, it is none of my business. I am here to judge no one, simply to pray or send beams if they would like.

Love one another. ❤️ This is my mantra. 😇

Maybe another thread would be best to discuss/debate ideologies. I don't do well with those types of things as I'm not good at an "us versus them" concept.

Something that I have on my profile page is "Ideologies separate us. Dreams and anguish bring us together". -Eugene Ionesco

For me, this means that many times ideologies can get in the way of us coming together as human beings. I'm here to pray for everyone as well to listen to their dreams, to hear their anguish and do my best to support us all no matter what anyone's faith may be or even lack there of. I have heard that even having no faith can be considered as ones faith.

*hugs* ❤️😇

Very nice Rogue. I share here (a little bit) and you share there (lol), Nehemiah 8:10 (the Bible) "The joy of the LORD is your strength.”
