Father,<BR>we come before you humbled that you would hear our prayer and encourage us to lift our requests and praises to You. Lord, how great is such a God that knows each and everyone of us by name and dowm to the detail of knowing the number of hairs on our heads. Amazing, awesome how overwhelming. God is truely in everything. We must come to understand and accept that truth, God is in everything. And Lord when you move Your presence away and allow the trials, it is meant for good not for evil. Lord You are still in it and are more than able to use it for ours and others good, proclaiming Your glory for all the world to see. Thank You that you include us in such a grand arrangement.<BR>Lord let your presence be in this prayer time. Be in each praying heart so they pray according to Your Spirit and what He says to each of us. Lord, let those thoughts and distractions not from you be swept out of our minds now, and replaced by every good and perfect thought from You. <BR>Lord, we come to You knowing we are praying in Your will, because You hate divorce and separation. You hate fornication of any type. You hate idolitry of any kind also. Lord, You have called each and every one of us for Your purpose and because You love us. Lord, let our love abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ-to the glory and praise of God. (Philippians 1:9-11.)<P>Lord continue to call us closer to you. Continue to help us know you and call us to know you in a deeper way. Lord continue to tug at our hearts to know you in a very personal way. Lord let us seek to walk with you and to sit at your feet simply because we love you and want to spend time with you. Let us listen to your words and thoughts and delight in the conversation. Lor, let us lay down our trials at your feet and walk with you down the path knowing in our hearts that You are in Everything. That Your presence is everywhere, therefore all is within your power and control. Lord, what a mighty God and thank you for <BR> You hen me in-behind and before;<BR>you have laid your hand upon me.<BR>Where can I go from your Spirit?<BR>Where can I flee from your presence?<BR>Thank God the answer is nowhere can we go that His presence is not there. (Psalm 139:5,7) being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus (philippians 1:6)<BR>Jesus thank You.So let us devote ourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful (Colossians 4:2)<BR>We are to do nothing but to pray and rely on God!<P>I lift up my sisters in Christ to you and ask that you teach us what it means to let go and let you.

Oh, HW your prayer was so incredibly beautiful!!!! I am sitting here crying because your prayer has moved me so much. Thank you for your dedication to this prayer time, and for praying so earnestly for each of us. You are an angel from God. I praise Him every day for your presence here as your words of love, hope and encouragement while you are enduring the most horrible pain and heartache of your life touches me so very much. Thank you again for all you do.<P>Praise report - my husband called shortly after I finished praying, and he was not mean at all tonight. In fact he said "I love you" and "I miss you" before he hung up. <B>PRAISE YOU GOD YOU ARE ALMIGHTY!!!</B> Yahoo!<P>

Dear Heavenly Father,<P>Thank you for hearing and answering all our prayers. We thank thee for all the strong sisters providing their faith, time and energy to this board and making our prayer time a fruitful reality. <P>Please bless hw and AW especially for the leadership they provide and the inspired prayers they lead. We praise thy name forever for thy eternal love and care for all thy children. Please continue to bless us and guide us according to our faith and according to thy will.<P>In Jesus name, Amen

You truly are an awesome God Father, ever present and faithful to Your children. Thank you for never leaving or forsaking us. Thank you for using this forum for your glory, that what Satan had hoped to divide and conquer can be united in purpose, that women can come together with the hope that comes from you, to claim your promises for good and not evil, to learn more about your kind of agape love. Continue to search our hearts and teach us how to become the women you would have us be, honoring both you and our husbands. Instill in us the gentle quiet spirit in all truth that is not walked on, but bold in our convictions of the Word. Show us how to be gentle and yet firm, compassionate in our marriages and passionate for the truth which is You. Teach us humility in our times of strife, how to find the joy in the midst of the pain, for even Jesus felt that pain as he looked over Jeruselem and cried out "O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those sent to you, how often I have longed to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing." (MT 23:37)<P>Teach us to be willing Father, that You would be glorified in our lives and in our marriages. IJN, Amen.

It was great to turn on the computer this morning to see Sue, Karena, and AW's prayers aded to the thread. Together our prayes are more complete and therefore powerful in the sight of the Lord, and over the enemy. <BR>Father I am so blessed by these faithful ladies. Lord, we all struggle, but we all lift praise to you, Lord. A sacrifice of praise is what you want. Let our praises be heard high above these present storms and let Your glory and Power shine through the gray and darkness as rays of light that break through the darkness of evil and the storms we each endure. <BR>Lord, we praise your name for it is Holy. Lord we praise Your Son for he died for us and sits with you in heaven. Lord we praise that you call us to you to be women designed by You. Lord we praise you for your mighty hand in everything, for you are Lord over all the righteous and evil. Lord we must see You in it all and give thanks that you are such a mighty God that those things that happen are not meant to destroy us but rather to restore un in Christ. Let us drop all our worries, cares and heartbreaks at Your feet today and leave them there as we walk with you through the garden praising the astounding beauty that you create for us to enjoy daily. Praiae the Lord, all the earth. Praise the Lord, Oh my soul. Praise the Lord for God is God, let us follow Him. Praise the Lord, for Jesus came to love us. Praise the Lord, for You heal us Lord with Your love that surpasses all understanding. Lord increase our faith and love for others today and restore our hope in You. In Jesus name, Amen.

Lord, thank you so much for these woman and the beautiful prayers they shared. I say amen and amen to them all. <P>Thank you for showing me that even when I don't have words to pray...when the situation seems so overwhelming and I don't know what to say...that Your Spirit prays for me and intercedes on my behalf. Lord, thy will be done. I believe that you can heal my marriage. But even if you don't, yet will I praise you forever.<P>Be with all the people on this board who are hurting and seeking a balm for their wounds. Be that balm, Lord, and embrace us with Your wonderful arms of love. Embrace our spouses too....You love them more than even we do. Please find them and bring them back into your fold.<P>Amen.<BR>Mrs.O<BR>
