Galatians 6:2 (Week 16)

Hi everyone. I want to thank you, the faithful ones, who read and are committed to pray each week for these requests. You have no idea how much impact you're having, and your prayers are literally keeping people alive week after week.


There are a ton of new requests this week, but some wonderful praises as well:


Praise reports:


1. D is now going to therapy to deal with his schizophrenia issues; is getting a review of his meds; and starting classes ti learn and deal with his disease. He also just got sponsored in a 12-step program for his addictions!

N is trusting her life to her Lord and is walking with Him day by day. She sees His love for her and she knows He is with her!


New requests:


1. It's inevitable that K is going to need a kidney transplant. She's struggling a lot with this. Please pray for supernatural strength, peace and perseverance. Pray for her heart and mind as she's experience a tremendous amount of sadness and depression.


2. J is experiencing an enormous amount of anxiety. Pray for God's peace to overwhelm her fear.


3. K is struggling with the situation with her niece and nephew. K needs provision a hundred-fold, wisdom and understanding. Her niece and nephew need Jesus, badly. They are struggling with anger and frustration toward their mother, and acting out at school and at home. 


4. B is helping her mom recover from an injury. Pray for strength and perseverance for her and her mom.


5. G has been experiencing debilitating migraines. Pray for healing as she finished exams next week, and  that doctors are able to help when she gets home.


6. L is pregnant with identical twins, and has just learned there is a health issue with one of the babies. Pray for fear to flee for L and her husband. Pray for a miraculous healing in the womb, and that this precious baby is born completely well. Pray for God's peace to wash over her and her family any time they begin to be fearful.


7. J is ignoring doctors orders regarding his health, and has started drinking and smoking again. His heart, kidneys and liver are operating at a fraction of their capacity, and friends are fearful he will die soon. Pray for a Damascus-road encounter with Jesus that will change everything for him. He lives with a lot of demons from his past, and his addictions are rooted in pain. He needs instantaneous and miraculous life changes.


8. J's mom is recovering from a delibitating heart attack and stroke at home...but her health continues to fail. Every moment that J isn't at work or with her family is spent with her mom, spending the nights there to help. Pray for strength for J -- she's extremely exhausted physically and emotionally and spiritually. Pray for miraculous healing for her mom if it's the Lord's will.


9. The W's have been doing IVF, and are going in Wednesday for implantation of the embryos. Pray one or both of them would result in a healthy baby for them!


Ongoing requests:


1. J has just had his third back surgery, but is not recovering as he should be. He's in a tremendous amount of pain and doctors are trying to determine the cause. He is young and has a wife and two kids, all who are suffering with him. Pray for healing for him and for peace for his family.

2. C is back on drugs and alcohol and is daily risking the opportunity to get her infant son out of foster care. Pray for freedom from her addictions, for God's supernatural strength to help turn her life around for her and her son's sake.

"Don't fret or worry. Instead of worrying, pray. Let petitions and praises shape your worries into prayers, letting God know your concerns. Before you know it, a sense of God's wholeness, everything coming together for good, will come and settle you down. It's wonderful what happens when Christ displaces worry at the center of your life." (Philippians 4:6-7, MSG)

May Jesus forever be your center.

Be blessed this week and always.
