Prayer Requests 6-3-15

Today is Wednesday, so don’t forget to pray for The Gambia. 

Anyone else have something to share?

Psalm 7

¹O Lord my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me:

2 Lest he tear my soul like a lion, rending it in pieces, while there is none to deliver.

3 O Lord my God, If I have done this; if there be iniquity in my hands;

4 If I have rewarded evil unto him that was at peace with me; (yea, I have delivered him that without cause is mine enemy:)

5 Let the enemy persecute my soul, and take it; yea, let him tread down my life upon the earth, and lay mine honour in the dust. Selah.

6 Arise, O Lord, in thine anger, lift up thyself because of the rage of mine enemies: and awake for me to the judgment that thou hast commanded.

7 So shall the congregation of the people compass thee about: for their sakes therefore return thou on high.

8 The Lord shall judge the people: judge me, O Lord, according to my righteousness, and according to mine integrity that is in me.

9 Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.

10 My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.

11 God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.

12 If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.

13 He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.

14 Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.

15 He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.

16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.

17 I will praise the Lord according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the Lord most high.

  1. Still need prayers for Miss Priss. She dug the hole a little deeper with her dad last night. She and I are having dinner tonight and I need the right words to say to make her think about what she is doing.

  3. Our friend, Kim, has been given amazing peace. She will have surgery next week for the cancer and it is then that the total extent of it will be revealed. In the meantime, her folks have been overwhelmed with family issues. Please pray for this whole extended family. The devil is really trying to cause trouble.

    On the upside, Kim’s grandson and others have been such a blessing. This young man, who is homeschooled, has been staying with his grandmother at night. He reads poetry to her and keeps her company. He is not a teen yet.

    God and the devil both do things through people. Of course, we know who wins. Pray that God’s people in this family will be firm in their faith, joyful in spite of affliction and graceful to those who do evil. Pray for wisdom for them and the doctors. Pray for reconciliation where it is needed.

    Thanks to the Lord for all those who take advantage of his wonderful gift of prayer!!

  5. Remember when I first mentioned Emily looking into the Catholic school, & I wrote something along the lines of “How wonderful for God to make a way where there seems to be no way”, & I said I would still believe that even if she decided against it?

    Well, Emily has decided she can’t afford the remaining tuition (after the scholarship), so Forrest will not be going to St. Edward’s after all. If R could be relied upon to pay the child support, she could afford it, but he is not reliable. (He hasn’t been able to pay it for a couple months. He only paid it for three weeks.) But I am still believing in, & holding onto, God’s faithfulness.

    Interestingly, R is disappointed about Emily not being able to afford St. Edward’s,, & expressed hope that maybe next year Forrest can go there. I’m hoping maybe this disappointment could have the effect of motivating him to keep a job, & stay on whatever meds he supposed to be on. May God do an amazing work in this young man’s life.

    BTW, their next court date is this Friday afternoon.

  6. Thanks for praying. I was a little nervous, because I’m feeling better today, and wondered if the doctor would think I was wasting her time. She sat and talked with me for a while, discussing my symptoms. She thinks that there is something else going on, besides my asthma, since my symptoms are atypical. I’m going to have a sleep study done, as I do have some symptoms of sleep apnea.

  7. I received a call from Nana. The problems with BG are more than I knew. I started making calls this afternoon and have pieced together part of a story. I called The Daddy, but he has his back up over the situation and they haven’t spoken since Monday and all I could get out of him were yes, no, fine, whatever.
    He and I need to sit down with her together and let her know we know what is going on and what is and isn’t acceptable.
    I asked him for the three of us to get together Saturday. As you can guess, I still need prayers where she is concerned.
    Thank you.
