Prayer Requests 4-12-14

Anyone have a request or praise to share today?

Psalm 80

¹Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, thou that leadest Joseph like a flock; thou that dwellest between the cherubims, shine forth.

Before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh stir up thy strength, and come and save us.

Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.

O Lord God of hosts, how long wilt thou be angry against the prayer of thy people?

Thou feedest them with the bread of tears; and givest them tears to drink in great measure.

Thou makest us a strife unto our neighbours: and our enemies laugh among themselves.

Turn us again, O God of hosts, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.

Thou hast brought a vine out of Egypt: thou hast cast out the heathen, and planted it.

Thou preparedst room before it, and didst cause it to take deep root, and it filled the land.

10 The hills were covered with the shadow of it, and the boughs thereof were like the goodly cedars.

11 She sent out her boughs unto the sea, and her branches unto the river.

12 Why hast thou then broken down her hedges, so that all they which pass by the way do pluck her?

13 The boar out of the wood doth waste it, and the wild beast of the field doth devour it.

14 Return, we beseech thee, O God of hosts: look down from heaven, and behold, and visit this vine;

15 And the vineyard which thy right hand hath planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself.

16 It is burned with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance.

17 Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself.

18 So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.

19 Turn us again, O Lord God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.

  1. Prayer for sixteen year old as she makes the big drive into the city by herself. Okay, it is a small city, but for her it is big. She starts her CNA course by taking a CPR course today. Then she will be driving in every Monday, though usually the neighbor will drive in with her. She is nervous, but she will be okay. She is not driving the stick shift though she needs to.
    Thanks.

  2. Prayers, Mumsee.

    Please pray for my daughter this coming week. She is really struggling with her final weeks of her practicum. She says she is struggling mentally, physically and spiritually. She is finding it hard to sleep which then affects how and what she does on the job. Please pray for God to lift her up, to give her some encouragement today and for her to be able to sleep soundly at night.
    Thank you, my friends, that I can come here when my heart is heavy.

  3. We are often told to pray for our children as no one else is doing so. It is nice to come here and join with others in praying for their children, knowing they are lifting up ours as well.

  4. Heavenly Father, You hold the place as the best Daddy (Abba) on earth. We know without a doubt that You never stop caring for our needs and the needs of our children. Not one of us is worthy to come into Your presence for we each have some sort of sin in our lives. You would cast away the sight of us except You see Jesus leading before us and You acknowledge the price He paid for our redemption and for making it so that we can be in Your very presence. We are in the season of sorrow defeated by Your accomplishment of raising Jesus from death. Only You working the plan out along with Jesus being both humble and obedient could make such a wonderful thought become reality. Thank You for what that means to each of us each dsy and for all eternity. You are so worthy of praise, adoration and glory.

    I ask that You would meet the needs mentioned on here for safety on the roads for new drivers. I pray for those trying to get sdttled in new living environments. Please help Peter and his family as they move. Give safety to those who are traveling during the Easter break. And help those who sre struggling with academics, emotions and or spiritual conflicts. So many things and people try to divide the hearts of our young. Please may they learn the joy and contentment found only in a life foremost dedicated to Jesus.

    Please bless Jo as she is developing new skill in preparation for teaching. I ask that the Holy Spirit would become like a mentor, a felt presence, in the room with her guiding her in making plans of kmowledge to impart.

    I pray for Kim to feel peaceful aboug new responsibilities. Help her to not feel overwhelmed by the quantity of information required for her to learn. Please make a good relationship between BG and Kim and Mr. P. I pray finances can become less of an issue with ex.

    Thank You again for Lee and Karen O’s good news. And may good solutions be found regarding Lee’s work load. I ask for Your blessing to be upon the spiritual development of Emily and Chrissy. And please always keep Forrest in Your perfect care.

  6. BG had better things to do this weekend than spend time with her mother. I will try one more time today to see if she will do something with me this afternoon.

  7. Yes, she probably would be doing it even if she lived with Kim, but the difference is that Kim would at least get to see her in her daily life.

    Kim – That really stinks. George should be insisting that BG spend time with you on the weekends she’s supposed to be with you. I’m so sorry this is happening to you. But Kathaleena is right, someday she will realize what she has done, how shabbily she has treated you. And you will be there with your arms open wide in forgiveness.

    Kare – Prayers for your daughter & you.

  8. Chas, at that age, my children get away from me twice a week by going square dancing with a bunch of sixties to nineties. Their choice and they love it. The boys in their string ties, girls in their dresses.
