1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 KJV 16 Rejoice evermore. 17 Pray without ceasing. 18 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
This is a place for sharing your doubts and struggles. This is a place where you can ask for prayer or leave a prayer. Remember, the prayer of a righteous person avails much! Talking to your heavenly Father should be your first thought.
James 5:13 Is anyone among you suffering? Then he must pray. Is anyone cheerful? He is to sing praises.
James 5:16 Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.
What is Prayer?
The most basic definition of prayer is “talking to God.” Prayer is not meditation or passive reflection; it is direct address to God. It is the communication of the human soul with the Lord who created the soul. Prayer is the primary way for the believer in Jesus Christ to communicate his emotions and desires with God and to fellowship with God.
Prayer can be audible or silent, private or public, formal or informal. All prayer must be offered in faith (James 1:6), in the name of the Lord Jesus (John 16:23), and in the power of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:26). As the International Standard Bible Encyclopedia puts it, “Christian prayer in its full New Testament meaning is prayer addressed to God as Father, in the name of Christ as Mediator, and through the enabling grace of the indwelling Spirit” (“Prayer” by J. C. Lambert). The wicked have no desire to pray (Psalm 10:4), but the children of God have a natural desire to pray (Luke 11:1).
Prayer is described in the Bible as seeking God’s favor (Exodus 32:11), pouring out one’s soul to the Lord (1 Samuel 1:15), crying out to heaven (2 Chronicles 32:20), drawing near to God (Psalm 73:28, KJV), and kneeling before the Father (Ephesians 3:14)… more by GotQuestions

Hurricane Helene Destroys – Want to Give – Share or View Below How You Can.
It is devastating when disasters come our way and destroy, hurt, or take away those we love and items we own. In the US, many states have suffered from the hurricane Helene that went from Florida to North Carolina and onward. There were several states that got hit hard and lots of damage occurred. One of them being Asheville, NC. This small town was quickly going down. We have added some videos below of the people speaking out on what is happening and what took place. These videos will also provide information on where and what steps to take if you want to help out.
If you have other videos or links to share, please leave a comment. We will post your comment if the link goes to a company where all the donations go to the people in need. Not to those who take and do not give.

Lord, please hear our prayers. You are the One Who keeps Your chosen people. You never slumber nor sleep. This did not catch You by surprise. So, Lord we pray many come to saving faith in Your Son.

We ask You give comfort, courage, and peace to those who are being held captive and have lost their loved ones.
We pray for courage to speak the truth in this dark and evil world.
Come Lord Jesus, come Amen

SOUND OF FREEDOM MOVIE – BASED ON A TRUE STORY
——————————————
Sound of Freedom is based on a true story about Tim Ballard. It is about him making a hard decision and choosing a different path. He rescues children from sex trafficking and brings them home. But there is more to this story as it reveals the truth about each person in this movie. Highly recommend this movie. It was wonderful, sad and in your face movie. Pray for our CHILDREN. Pray, they are coming after the children. They are the slaves.
Please share your thoughts and prayers about this movie or how our children are being sold into sex trafficking. The truth shall not be hidden!

POWER OF PRAYER BASED ON A TRUE STORY by LHWM
——————————————
In mid-1984, an Australian woman was flying across the Tasman Sea to stay with friends in Auckland when the plane ran into a severe electrical storm. In order to remember the significance of the occasion she decided to take a photo of the turbulent storm out of the window of the plane. She saw only the clouds intermittently lit by flashes of lightning. But what she saw on the photo later will blow your mind!
WORSHIPPING THE CREATOR by LHWM
———————————
We ask for forgiveness of our idolatry. Loving ourselves and lusting after the ways of the world. We turned from worshipping the Creator to worshipping the created. Hear the plea of Your children.
Comfort those who seek Your kingdom first. The Lord, our Shepherd, help us not to fear in this time of great turmoil. Lead us in Your wisdom. Give us wisdom, knowledge, and the courage to know what to do. And then stand for Your righteousness for the sake of Your glory.
Your remnant is eagerly awaiting Your coming for Your bride. As we look, keep our hearts and minds stayed on the task at hand. Speaking Your truth and in truth, against the lies.
We give You thanks that You provide our needs. Lord Jesus Christ, we give thanks that You made a way for us to be able to come boldly to the throne of grace to find mercy and help in our time of need.
When we are afraid, we will trust in the Lord.
Come Lord Jesus, Amen
PRAYER FOR A NATION by LHWM
——————————————
Lord God of heaven, the great and awesome God, You Who keeps Your covenant and loving kindness with those who love and obey You. We ask You to hear our prayer. We confess our sins and the sins of our nation, which we have committed against You alone. God, we pray those who are yours have true repentance. Heavenly Father, help us to rejoice as we put our trust in You. Give us a heart to love Your holy name and be joyful in You. You are our shield and defender.
Guide us, Holy Spirit, in the ways and steps of Christ. Give us boldness to profess Your word of Truth. We will choose to surrender our life to You daily in order to grow closer to You, heavenly Father. To pursue You, to know You and Your Son deeper and deeper. We need greater understanding in our heart of the hope to which we have been called. To know how rich and glorious are the blessings God promised to His holy people.
We have determined to know nothing except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. And the greatness of Your power to us who believe. The great power and strength that raised Christ from the dead. Who is now at the right hand of the Father in heaven. Nothing is chaotic or falling apart. Because God put all things and all rule under the power and authority of Christ. Thank You, our Lord God, as you continue to reveal to us how things are lining up with Your promise, You are coming suddenly.
As the world spins out of control and embracing evil, remember God is in control and knows all. You can rest in Him during these difficult and stressful times. How interesting that God tells not to worry many times in the bible. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, mind and soul (mind, will and emotions).
Psalm 118:6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?
Proverbs 3:7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil.
Proverbs 23:17 Do not let your heart envy sinners, But be zealous for the fear of the Lord all the day;
Prayer is powerful! We hope you add your prayer here for our nation, God Bless!

PRAYER FOR YOUR ENEMY by LHWM
——————————————
Our Father in heaven and of our Lord Jesus Christ, The enemy, is always challenging my faith in my weakest times. I will lean on your strength and power. Lord, when I’m tired and at my weakest, you are my only source of help. Help me to stand strong in your will, on your path in obedience, and to let go of me. Help me to not become discouraged or give up when heavy times of testing come. Strengthen my faith.
Lord, forgive my sins and the sins of my enemies. Cleanse my heart daily. Give me courage to stand and wisdom to see the truth, so I am not caught off guard. Lord Jesus, you have overcome and defeated Satan. The Truth, Jesus Christ, sets me free. We are asking for mercy. Thanks, be to God who gets all the Glory and Honor! In Jesus name, Amen!
So much is happening around the world. So much evil! Lord I pray for my enemies and give them to you because I don’t know what specifically to pray for. Lord please come!!!
BEING THANKFUL ON THANKSGIVING by LHWM
—————————————————-
Nahum 1:7 NASB1995 The Lord is good, A stronghold in the day of trouble, And He knows those who take refuge in Him.
The times we live in are days of trouble. These are uncertain and perilous days that have spread worldwide. We are watching the world come apart at the seams, and our hearts grow weary. There is loss on every front for many this holiday season.
But God’s love and goodness has not changed toward those who love Him. We who have been called know all our suffering will be made for good and His glory. Our hearts yearn to be home where there is no death, sorrow, tears, or suffering in our future home. Sin will no longer exist. Our worship and love toward God will truly be in “spirit and truth.”
Until then, eyes up and hearts thankful.
Psalm 136:1-7 NASB1995 1 Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, For His lovingkindness is everlasting. 2 Give thanks to the God of gods, For His lovingkindness is everlasting. 3 Give thanks to the Lord of lords, For His lovingkindness is everlasting. 4 To Him who alone does great wonders, For His lovingkindness is everlasting; 5 To Him who made the heavens with skill, For His lovingkindness is everlasting; 6 To Him who spread out the earth above the waters, For His lovingkindness is everlasting; 7 To Him who made the great lights, For His lovingkindness is everlasting
PRAYER FOR THOSE ADDICTIVE TO DRUGS by LHWM
———————————————————–
1 Corinthians 10:13 12 If you think you are strong, you should be careful not to fall. 13 The only temptation that has come to you is that which everyone has. But you can trust God, who will not permit you to be tempted more than you can stand. But when you are tempted, he will also give you a way to escape so that you will be able to stand it.
Romans 5:1-5 1 Since we have been made right with God by our faith, we have peace with God. This happened through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 who through our faith has brought us into that blessing of God’s grace that we now enjoy. And we are happy because of the hope we have of sharing God’s glory. 3 We also have joy with our troubles, because we know that these troubles produce patience. 4 And patience produces character, and character produces hope. 5 And this hope will never disappoint us, because God has poured out his love to fill our hearts. He gave us his love through the Holy Spirit, whom God has given to us.
Lord Jesus,
Show (add name here) (he, she) does not have the strength to overcome their addiction without You. Do not let them put confidence in others or themselves. Bring them to repentance and the submission of their heart to You. Let them see that You, God, are their strength to say no. Help them to put their hope in You to get through this.
Give them eyes to see and ears to hear the work of Your mercy in their life. Lord, we ask You to intervene when the cravings come. You alone know what it will take for them to say no. We ask You Lord to show them the futility and destruction of their addiction in truth.
Heal them and open the doors for the healing of their soul and their body. According to Your will in Jesus name, Amen!
Dear God My Savior and Lord. I am grateful for your mercy and grace in my life, past, present and future. You have done more for me than I could ever do for myself. Thank you for putting up with me. Sometimes I am just not what I should be. But thank you for knowing there is not perfect on this earth. Thank you for health and the strength that you give me each day. I pray and ask Lord to let me always have enough to help someone else. Let my cup overflow with love and kindness. Be a fence around me and my family and friends. Give the bereaved families comfort. Lord remove covid 19. Keep us safe from it. Send the holy spirit to guide and direct or paths. protect us from all hurt and danger. In Jesus Name. Amen.
Thank you for your prayer! Amen! We needed to hear this ourselves.
