Just looking over the board tonight, we have many new posters and many new concerns. So a new thread for this week. <P>For those that are new, we have designated an hour on Tuesday night to pray, for all that can. The time was 11:00 EST, but that is getting to be too late for me, so last week I prayed from 10:00 to 11:00 EST. I will do the same tomorrow night. <P>Those that can pray during that time, please join in. Everyone who cares to, posts their prayer requests here and then we pray over them together but in our own homes. I hope you will join in or at least post a request..

Hello, <P>my prayer is that God will soften my H heart so that he can work in it. I Love my H and I pray that God will restore our Marriage even better and stronger than original.<P>I would love to join you for prayer time.<BR>I'm on PST, so is that 3 hours ahead or behind EST.<P>------------------<BR>Scared and lonely

Time zones: The MB board clock is on Central Time, one hour earlier than Eastern. I'm in Pacific time too, and can't be on at 7 p.m. barring extraordinary circumstances, so I usually show up at 10 or 11 Pacific = 12 or 1 a.m. Central = 1 or 2 a.m. Eastern time.<P>While it's great to be synchronized, praying with one purpose over the course of a night and day is always wonderful too.<P>Anyone who can join and read the prayers, pray along silently, during, before or after, is part of the scene. Post if you can, but God hears anyway, and we all feel the lift and all share the blessings. I can't tell you how much I have felt uplifted by the prayer times on Tuesday. They help me all week!<P><B>Prayer Request</B><P>I need blessings in the following areas: <P>Humility - unto repentance and forgiveness<BR>Obedience - in the little things<BR>Health - for me and my baby<BR>Love - for my husband and family and others<BR>Committment - to all my obligations<p>[This message has been edited by Karenna (edited September 19, 2000).]

request: help in focusing on the good things. Let me stop tormenting myself as I dwell on my failures. Save me from bitterness. Let me see Your glory and grace. The enemy is filling me with doubts and dark thoughts and I need help with prayers to make them go away. I wish to renew by belief in the promise that God will provide for my needs.

Request: Please pray that I will find understanding and in what has happen in my family; that I become in love with my H again--not just love him. Help me to find joy in the morning, strenth where I need it. That my H will come to under that GOD is in control and let HIM do is work. ITS

I talked with my husband last night. He was kind enough to cut my grass as the regular guy didn't finish. I thanked him for also be helpful to my daughter when she was trying to get her dryer installed at her apartment. He said, "You know you promised me dinner for helping out around the house." I said tell when and where and it's yours. He mentioned a couple of dishes I had previously prepared especially for him ... so I told him I would make them. When we were finished, I told him I LOVE YOU...and he just mumbled, "yeah I know." But this was exactly like when he was here and I said so ... we both had a good laugh about that as he was never very outgoing with affection. But he knows I still love him and I feel deep in my heart that he still loves me too. So much has happen during the two years of our separation, but this journey is to God's glory alone.<P>My prayer request is for God to continue to grant me words of knowledge when it comes to dealing with my husband; a patient heart to wait on God's timing, not my own; and a loving spirit to see my husband as God sees him.<P>God bless you all ...<P>Hopeful Heart

My prayer request is first to thank the Lord for the wonderful things he is doing in my life and my marriage. I praise Him, giving Him all glory and honor for the positive changes in my husband and me. I pray the Lord instills in David a deep, abiding love for me, so that David loves me, his wife, as Christ loved the Church and gave himself for it. I pray that the Lord continue speaking to my husband's heart, even as he sleeps, instructing him, directing his path. I thank the Lord for calling David to Him, for the Holy Spirit interceding on our behalf, pleading my case. I praise Him for the glorious testimony of David's conversion that is to come! I believe the Lord will place born-again believers in David's path to witness to him, planting more seeds, that the Holy Spirit will grow. <P>Thanks ladies!

My prayer request is that my H finds the Lord again, and that my marriage is restored. Right now he has gone south again after coming along way. He has alot of deeper issues then our marraige child hood issues. He once again is very very hateful. he disperatly needs help. Also that dylan and are are safe. I have came to the conclusion that no matter how much none LBing I do until he finds the Lord its not going to work.<P>Thanks <BR>Michelle

Praise for His mercy and grace and steadfastness.<BR>Thankful that He continues to reveal areas of my life that need to be addressed.<BR>Prayer request that I face these challenges head first even though they are painful, that I continue to seek how to be open and vulnerable and genuine in mt relationship with the Lord and my husband. That the bitter roots are ripped out of my heart and that I experience His peace throughout the trial.

first I praise the Lord, for being near me last week as I was attacked all week. i thank Him for calling me through the attacks to praise Him. I praise Him for hearing my feeble attempts to praise Him when I felt so down. I praise Him for giving me peace this week and a song of praise to sing to Him.<P>I pray that the Lord is sending prayer warriors to pray for my husband's return to Jesus. That his saving relationship is rekindled with the Lord, and that it is planted firmly in good soil this time. <P>I pray for Godly Christian men to come along side my husband and lead him to a richer relationship with the Lord. I pray for an annointing of the Holy Spirit to meet my h where he is and that the Holy Spirit break through my h's hardened heart and soften it toward Jesus. I pray that every scripture he has ever read will raise up powerfully within his heart and mind. I pray the the love of Christ is loosed within his heart.<P>I pray that I keep seeking the Lord with all my heart and that my circumstances have no effect on what and how I feel. That I seek God with all my heart for Him alone.

For steadfastness in doing right, courage to do what is before me. For a softened and yielded heart, that I accept ALL God provides and gives me. That all roots of bitterness and resentment be torn out.
