As we build this community prayer platform, we ask the Lord to listen to our petitions with full confidence they not only are heard but acted upon by God according to His holy will. These requests are on my prayer list and I hope you consider putting them on yours as you place your petitions before the Lord Sunday.

Approach the throne room and respond with faith and not fear, knowing the promises of God and His mighty hand will hold us through any situation! Sometimes, all it takes is just one prayer to change everything. Something extraordinary happens when two or more agree together in prayer.

What is one of the most important things we should do as Christians? Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints (Ephesians 6:18).

And, so, Lord, we come to You with our petitions, knowing and expecting Your will to be done.

Thoughts and prayers to all worldwide suffering from the consequences of coronavirus flu – and all other strains. Many – many – of the prayer requests are covid-19 related … people diagnosed … people sick … people dying … relatives worried and isolated. We are in this together – in prayer!

Please keep the victims of household abuse in your prayers. Whether it be physical, emotional, sexual or neglect, this time in particular is very horrifying for them to be trapped in a house with their abuser(s) and not being able to escape.

We also need to pray for colorblind peace. Racism will remain a plague until we stop looking at people as black and white, but as human beings created by the same Creator. We pray for new eyes, calmer heads, and softer hearts. 

Eric is at end stage of an autoimmune disease, battling high ammonia. He is very weak and has dropped 40 pounds in three months. Prayers requested.

Laura is in pain beyond what she can explain. Prayers please.

Virginia is in the hospital again, this time for bacterial meningitis. Prayers needed.

Urgent prayer request for an encouraging CT scan for Pamela.

Please pray for Tom who cut himself while using a chain saw.

Please pray for five year old Angela. She had some sort of anaphylaxis reaction the other day and now her head hurts. She is awaiting MRI results.

Please pray for John who just had a heart attack (angina pectoris due to coronary arteries narrowed or blocked by atherosclerosis/blood clot) and went to the hospital via ambulance.

Mindy had a stroke in my eye Friday and lost her eyesight in her right eye. It was diagnosed as a central retinal artery occlusion (CROA) and she is in the stroke ICU. Prayers requested.

Cindy is asking for prayers. She has had three heart attacks and headed to ER with possibly another one.

Jack was involved in a boating accident. He is listed in serious. Prayers requested.

Please pray for God’s blessings in some legal situations Pete faces.

Please pray for the safe and healthy pregnancy for Henna. Last time she had an etopic pregnancy which did not survive.

Lissette is going to take a very important and difficult test for real estate Sunday. She has failed several times and is feeling discouraged and hopeless. Can you please pray for her to pass this very important test with good results so she can move forward and schedule the other part of the test.

Please pray the infection in Donna’s legs will be healed.

Please pray Sarah is fit and healthy enough to return to medical school this year. She was temporarily excluded two years ago and it has constantly been under review. She is better now, but it’s been really difficult to get a job. She just want to go back to university and finish medical school, so she can graduate and be a blessing to others.

Please pray for Michelle. Her blood pressure is really high and it’s never like this. She is already on medication, so she is not sure what’s going on and is really scared. She believes it’s anxiety from all that’s going on.

Toby is fighting an infection caused by stepping on a nail. He is in danger of losing part of his leg. Prayers requested.

Beth is having a difficult baby delivery. Prayers are requested for a healthy delivery and her health.

Leroy is disabled with a spine injury, but the disability company cut his benefits and said he could work. Please pray the assistance is  restored. He is a single parent and needs a miracle.

Please pray for a healing of Frank’s neck. It causes severe pain in both arms and has already caused nerve damage in both hands. He is constantly in pain.

Please pray for Alma whose heart rate and BP are running a little high.

Please pray for Debra who is battling insomnia and other issues.

Please pray for Liz who is battling type 2 diabetes and high cholesterol.

Leticia is suffering from glaucoma, optic nerve damage/detachment, and high pressure in the eyes. Prayers requested.

Please pray Miriam’s health challenges are resolved and her upcoming health tests and reports are good.

Pray for a complete skin healing for five year old James.

Please pray for Greg. He has some kind of infection in his leg. The doctors amputated his toe and foot, and now they may have to amputate his leg above the knee.

Hilda, 94, fell and broke her hip. She is currently in rehab. Prayers requested.

Andrew continues to struggle. He had a few very bad, dark nights this week, but continues to battle through prayer – and a sense of humor.

There were a host of unspoken prayer requests and we heard of a number of deaths this week. Prayers for their families as they go through this earthly trial. We grieve … heaven rejoices.

We come to You, Lord, because prayer is the least yet the greatest thing we can do for each other. When two or more are gathered in Your name, we confidently know You are with us. What better company can we have? You reign and we trust You! We may be broken and battered but know You heal and quiet the soul. You are the source for all that happens in our lives. We thank You for the progress being made. We thank You for the many blessings we have received this week. Some we unfortunately didn’t notice. Nonetheless, those blessings are ever-present in our lives. We thank You for healing. We thank You for slowing us down. We thank You for providing us our daily needs — no more and no less. We thank You for being with us, listening to us, walking with us on this journey. We thank You for the support of our family and friends … for seeing the extraordinary in the ordinary — sunrises, sunsets, flowers, kids laughing, adventures, good news amid the bad news. We know we can come to You with our concerns and they will be heard. Through Christ all things are possible. We lift up those family members and friends who are battling various physical, emotional, financial, career or spiritual issues and ask not for Your guidance and healing (although that would be welcomed) but to keep reminding us we are not alone in our battles. Specifically we lift up Eric, Laura, Virginia, Pamela, Tom, Angela, John, Mindy, Cindy, Jack, Pete, Henna, Lissette, Donna, Sarah, Michelle, Toby, Beth, Leroy, Frank, Alma, Debra, Liz, Leticia, Miriam, James, Greg, Hilda, Andrew, and all those needing Your healing and guiding touch. We pray for the families of all those You have called home. We grieve … You celebrate. We pray for obedience to Your Will so Your “Son” Light shines through us through the power of the Spirit. And we come to You through the confidence of the words taught by Your Son Jesus. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

Keep your joys and concerns coming. They have been and will be included during my prayer time and I trust they will be on your lips as well as you approach the altar. All it takes is a couple of keystrokes under the “Contact Me” button on the top bar {or to the right if you’re not a follower yet}. I hope it becomes your best friend as you navigate around the site so we can all be viable prayer warriors. You can also comment or reach me at wisdomfromafather@gmail.com.
