Father, we come before you with psalms, songs of praise and rejoicing for Your Son and all He did for us. During this week as we recall how He came not to condemn but to save us. As we remember the greatness of You o, God. That because we always want to sit on the throne (our pride and sinful nature,) You sent Your son to substitute for us. How awesome and above what we could ever have thought. Jesus I need you in my life. You are calling me to learn to be intimate with You first before I can be intimate with my h.<BR>Lord, the other thing you have recalled to me this week is that when I pray I myust believe, be convicted that You will answer. I must now ask in timidity but with boldness and faith thast is unwavering. You are God. If I come before You and ask, I KNOW You hear. If my prayer is not answered then I KNOW that You have something better planned. So it is with this conviction that I come before You tonight and pray for Jack, my h and all the other women and their h's tonight. Father how gracious you are. How loving and wise. Father with power beyond our imagination yet you touch each of us with such gentleness. Lord, I come humbled before you, but I pray with complete conviction that You want to save every husband here or return them to Jesus. Lord, heal their hurts, give them eyes to see and ears to hear You. Sent the Spirit with a special annointing on each h here and touch them with Your Soirit in such an individual way so that each h is touched and comes to Godly repentence and sorrow. Lord, cause each h here to pick up Your word and read Your truth. Let Your word sift their thoughts. Instruct each h through other Christain men at their jobs, as they ride to work, as they walk, and even as they sleep. Lord let their wives these praying wives be a radiant beacon to call them out of their darkness into Your light. Shine Your cleansing light into the darkness within each of us and show us where repentance is needed. Let there be nothing left in us that is not from You. Lord, comfort those that have been distressed this week. Go before those that have counseling this week and be in those sessions. Let Your Spirit guide each woman as she prays and let Your Spirit interceed for those wives that are just too burdened and weary to pray. Lord. increase our faith and help any unbelief. Lord, convict each wife to come boldly before You with their prayers and give them the fortitute to believe without a doubt and to stand on Your many promices. You never leave us or desert us. If God is for us, who can be against us. Lord, I lift up these many prayers and ask that You bring answers and let them be for Your Glory and used according to Your purposes. Lord Thank you. Thank You Jesus. Praise the Lord O, my soul! Amen.<BR>Have a great prayer time ladies!

Father:<BR>O God You are my God, and I will ever praise You. O God You are my God and I will ever praise You. I will seek you in the morning. I will walk in all of Your ways. And step by step You'll lead me, And I will follow You all of my days. <P>Praise the Lord that You have provided communion with You through Your Son, Jesus Christ. I praise You for the awesome priviledge to be able to come to you with praise, thanks, confession and suplication. Lord, cover each women here with your blood and draw them ever closer to you. Lord, loose the binds that bind these men, our husbands, to their blindness and deafness against You. Send Your Spirit to release them from the chains and give them eyes to see Jesus and ears to hear JESUS and a heart that will allow Jesus and Your Spirit in. Lord, Thank You for this time of prayer.I thank You for the answers that You are planning and working through at this moment. We stand on Your promices and Your hope. We know that You have heard and that You have answered. Thank You. Praise the Lord, in His Holy Place for He is worthy of our praise In Jesus name. Amen.

Oh, hw, your prayers are so powerful, they touch my heart and bring tears to overflowing. Your unwavering faith and trust in our Lord inspires me to reach a higher level. Thank you so much for posting these beautiful prayers!<P>Dear Lord, I pray in agreement with hw tonight, praising You in the highest. For You are our God, the King of Kings, Lord of all lords, lover of our souls, keeper of our hearts. We love You Jesus, praise You and lift our hearts up to You, asking for an fresh infilling of the Holy Spirit. Lord, I pray that You will stay close to each praying wife tonight, and through the week, showering them abundantly with your peace and joy. Guide each praying wife in how You want her to pray for her husband. <P>Lord, I also lift up each husband to You; bring the wayward home, fill each husband with loving thoughts of their wife every minute of every hour of every day. Trouble the relationships with OW that may be involved with these husbands, remove the OW permanently from their lives. Thank You Lord for delivering the addicted from their addictions, thank You Lord for softening these husbands' hearts towards their wives and families, filling their hearts, minds, and souls with a deep, unending desire to be reunited with their wife. Thank You Father for listening to and answering our prayers. I praise You Lord, and worship You. Thank You Jesus. In Your precious name I pray, AMEN

Dear Heavenly Father, <P>We thank thee for hearing and answering our prayers. Praise to thy Holy Name for the gifts of life and creation and salvation. We thank thee for strengthing our faith, for the gift of hope through thy Son's atoning sacrifice. <P>Please forgive us our sins. We confess that we have turned aside from thee at times. We acknowledge our weaknesses, whether they be anger, selfishness, pride or doubt. Please help us discover our shortcomings that we may correct our courses. <P>We ask now for the gift of love, that our hearts may be softened and reach out to thy many children in need. That we may give service everywhere in our paths. <P>Please, bless our families, that they may be guided by thee. We are so grateful for our families, Father! We love our children, our parents, our husbands. Please especially bless our husbands who are struggling with doubt, with self-doubt, with all manner of sin, temptations, addictions and disappointments. <P>Father, we ask a special blessing on each of the sisters in the gospel who are participating in this forum. We pray that all who visit this site may feel the comfort of thy Spirit for at least a little time. We pray that thou wilt bless us with calmness, peace, wisdom and love. Let each sister here be filled with the experience of Thy love for this night. Help us to understand our worth in Thy sight. We are committed to following the right path and we are committed to building up our marriages. <P>Please bless our efforts. Sanctify our marriages and help us to be useful instruments in thy hand for the salvation of many souls. Help us to so live that others will not have difficulty seeing the light of Christ reflected in our countenances.<P>These things we humbly pray, In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.<P>------------------<BR>A true friend is one who not only is willing to love us the way we are, but is able to leave us better than he found us.

AW< JOY< KARENNA,<P>Thanks so much for the prayers you shared on line here, they were very touching. I know God hears us! Prayers come through the Spirit, if we seek to pray through the Spirit we can't go wrong. Later when I have a longer minute, let me share the testimony of a new member of my Bible Study. Her Father's cancer has almost totally disappeared, and it happened almost over night. It was so inspiring. And it convicted me even more about something God has been showing to me. When we pray we have to believe it is. NBo doub;ts, no wavering. If you know you are praying in God's will then you must pray with the power of faith and belief. Then realize if God aoesn't answer He has something bigger planned. I overslept, so I've got to run now. I love you all and your beautiful praying selves. Have a great day.<P>Oh and Joy, I know how frustrating losong a post is. The Spirit shared a prayer through me one night that I guess satan didn't want posted, 30 minutes of work. Gone Poof!! Ah well, God still heard it and that was the important part. When you look at it like that you see how illusionary satan's power is.<P>

Dear HW<P>I can't agree more with AW, your prayers are beautiful and so much from the heart. I take comfort and what you say, I know our Lord hears our prayers, and have Faith that they will be answered. <P>That is awsome about your Bible Study friend's father. You'll have to tell us more. You are an inspiration to all of us.<P>Lord, I pray to You again, that our sisters' prayers are heard, and that You soften their husbands heart and remind them about their vows to their wives and to You oh Lord. Remove all temptation, addiction, and confusion from their hearts and minds. Cleanse them so that they may come back to you dear Lord. <P>I thank You from the bottom of my heart for answering my prayers, and showing my H the way home! I also thank You for continuing to mold me to be a good wife and mother, to live and do Your will. We will continue to praise you Father for all Your Goodness. <BR>IJN, Amen.<P>Pookie~<P>P.S. I'm so happy to be part of this group. I enjoy so much praying with you ladies, I still enjoy praying as I walk down the streets of NYC to work. Have a Happy Easter everyone! xoxox Pookie
