"His divine power HAS GIVEN to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who
called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through
these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust."
(2 Peter 1:3,4).
What shall we make of these Scriptural declarations? Sometimes we are like children with a check for a million dollars who haven't yet learned how to go to the bank and cash it. Ignorance of God's promises, and ignorance concerning the principles of faith which must be applied to receive them, have cost us dearly. This ignorance exists because of a deficient personal knowledge of Jesus Christ in our lives. If we drew near to Him and sought to please Him through a life of active faith, the results would be amazing. It would change the way we talk, the way we think, the way we act, and the way God would move in and through our lives. God wants us to talk, think and act like He means what He says!
Too many Christians struggle along, desperately begging God for things He has already promised, or already declared that He has given to us. Emotionally tormenting oneself does not impress God or move Him to respond. God responds to faith. Without faith it is impossible to please Him (Hebrews 11:6).
Verbal thanksgiving is a major key to releasing faith. We thank God for his promises, we praise God for His promises and His declarations to us, before we see the manifestation of the answer we need. We talk as if it is already done. This pleases God, who wants us to "walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7).
The Promises are For Us
"For all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God through us."
(2 Corinthians 1:20)
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ".
(Ephesians 1:3)
If we are in Christ, then all the promises in the Bible can be found, claimed and received by us. Any Bible teacher who declares "this biblical promise is no longer for today" is a deceiver. Such a teacher places his own theology above the plain declarations of Scripture.
Satan used to whisper to me that the promises were for another time, another person, that they were not worth having, and later, that I would not receive. All these kind of lies can be overcome by immersing ourselves in the Word of God - by pondering it, speaking it, and hearing people of faith preach it. Like anything worthwhile though, it takes some effort and diligence to renew our minds according to the Word of God. Satan is out to promote unbelief. Unbelief is sin, and we do well to make war on the unbelief in our own hearts, so that the new man in Christ can start to live and move through us.
This most important promise, apart from the promise of justification and the new birth to those who believe, is the promise of the Spirit. It helps a great deal to receive the Spirit as the disciples did on the day of Pentecost, and on other occasions throughout the book of Acts. We need the power of the Spirit. It is the Spirit of God who then leads us through the Word and teaches us how to pray so that God is glorified through the fact that His promises come to pass in OUR lives.
The prayers belong are based on Scriptural promises. By thanking God for making them a reality in our lives, we please God who told us "in everything give thanks" (1 Thessalonians 5:18) and to offer thanks when we pray (Philippians 4:6,7).
We who have entered into a covenant with God through the blood of Jesus Christ are partakers in the promises of God, found in His Word, the Bible. We have given our life to God and promised to obey His Word. He in turn not only gives us the power to obey His commandments, but also is ready to pour His blessings upon us because we are now His children. Everything His Word promises is for us to receive. We must appropriate these blessings by faith.
Speaking the Word of God with a first person application is one way of expressing the kind of faith which pleases God. By confessing our obedience to a commandment of God we are boldly declaring our allegiance to God. We are trusting God for the power to walk in obedience to what He told us to do. It is important to confess like this because our verbal commitments steer the direction of our life. It is also important because many of God's promises to us are conditional upon the kind of faith which leads to obedience.
By confessing a promise in the first person we are boldly stating that we are the ones that it applies to. We definitely express faith that we are the ones who are going to receive the blessing.
Praying the Word for the church is one way of expressing the kind of faith which pleases God. We can be sure we are praying God's will when we pray His word, and we have confidence that He does what we ask. (1 John 5:14,15)

wrecthed man i am
if someone feels like praying plz pray for me im knee deep in drug addition, ive spent thousands upon thousands of dollars on dope. ive prayed for god to set me free but nothing... plz help me.
wretched man I am
Raymond,when you pray for God to release you from something, to set you free from something, you have to believe with all your heart that he has done so. What I can advice you to do is to meet with prayer groups if you know of any around you, don't longer mingle with drug addicts because they can not help you, meet with people who can help you and lay your problems to them, and try to meet someone who was a drug addict before(if you know of any) he/she might be of great help to you. Whenever uyou fell like taking any drug, rush to your paryer group, be with them always, attend prayer sessions, meetings. Nonetheless, I will also pray for God to help you overcome drug addiction.
God bless you.
Need guidance and miracle - Please pray
Please pray for me. I had prayed two years back for a soulmate and my future husband and then met this man. After a lot of trials of tribulations, I felt he was the one God sent, and accepted him as my husband and promised him that i would be faithful and married to him for life.
Now his family has forced him to marry another girl and refuses to accept me. I prayed every novena and prayers and got all signs and we were making progress till two days back when all seems to have ended.BUT I STILL HAVE BLIND FAITH IN GOD THAT HE CAN DO ANYTHING, EVEN A MIRACLE AND REUNITE US.
There is a prophesy which says he will marry her and leave her and come back to me. But for me that is a sin. For me a breaking a promise is a sin too. So I will be destined to be alone for life and if prophesy comes true we might hurt an innocent girl.
I agree am a sinner but I need divine intervention and God's blessings. I just have this week. If miracle does not happen, the way ahead is either solitude or sin. Am sure God does not want that. I KNOW ALL SAY ITS OVER BUT MY FAITH IN GOD IS BIGGER THAN THAT. I SAY GOD CAN DO ANYTHING.
Please pray for me that I get my miracle. My life depends on it.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ME SO I GOD CAN FORGIVE ME & GIVE ME PEACE
I feel empty, stupid, and I am hating myself, I feel I am not worth it, I cheated on my boyfriend and I still don't know why I did it, I LOVE HIM, he's my blessing, I didn't want to cheat, I was drunk (and I never drink, but I was down and I went out with a couple people to have a couple of drinks, well I kept drinking and then my ex-boyfriend picked me up at the location where I was because I was too drunk to drive, once I got to my place, I felt that nothing was real, a surreal experience, I was so drunk that it seems like nothing, and we started kissing and then I realized when everything was happening as soon as it happens I told him that I couldn't do it, but he didn't stop and I just didn't know how to react, it was only a couple minutes and then I started crying...I didn't even want to cheat, I didn't even desire to be with this man, I was just drunk!!! I hate myself for that...I Love my boyfriend and I can believe this happen to me, I have always been a good woman, and now I feel terrible. I just want GOD to forgive me and to give me peace, I need it badly...I am so bitter and feel disgusted...all what I want is to make my boyfriend happy and be the best partner ever, for GOD to give me a chance to make it up...I can live like this...I really feel like I would like to die...It wasn't me...that's not the person that I am, that's what hurts me the most, and that I failed to GOD and to my boyfriend the love of my life, my blessing.
You are forgiven......awsome
Hello
The awsome thing is that you are forgiven according to (1John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness).We must just remember to stay under the Lords protection and will and plan for our lifes.And just remember that the Devil walks around like a lion and see who he can defour,so just be more allert of the devils traps and take a stand for God.The thing with us is that God allready forgives us and says that He never thinks of our sins again,but we think and bring up the deeds all the time,and that is the work of the devil as he reminds us all the time of our sins.Remember that what you say has power over life and death according to (Prov 18:21 Death and life are in the power of the tongue)So speak death to this guilt feeling that you are carying with you and speek new life as you are forgiven.
God Bless

God will forgive u
God will forgive u, see the bible tell us "if we confess with our mouth our sins that God is faithful and just to forgive us", He is not only Faithful but he also Just and He will forgive u, the most important thing is that u realise where u went wrong, u realised ur sin and u want forgiveness God will forgive u and all u have to do is ask and he will give it. Then u have to ask him to help u to forgive urself. Don't lose faith. I can tell u this because i did the same thing before and i cried to God and i begged him to help me never to do it again because i realised not only was i hurting my boyfriend if he ever found out which he did, i was also hurting my self and selling my self short and i didn't want to do that anymore. I told God if he made my boyfriend take me back i would never do it again and God did it for me so He can and will do it for u. Just Keep the faith
I want to confess my sins
I want to confess my sins and seek deliverance. God restored my marriage in Febuary. As the idiot i am, I used drugs with in the next 3 months while my family went on vacation. I also met a young woman that I almost had an affair with. She was my wife's cousin who came to saty with us for a month and worked her way into my heart. I have been so shamed of thesed things I have kept them in, everyone was so amazed about God putting our marriage back together. I destroyed it, in my own little hands, i feel as if I spit in God's face. I have been on a rampage since then, blaming everyone and everyhting, not wanting to admit any wrong doing. I did wrong. I know there is no chance that God will give me my family back, but I need peace in my heart and my relationship with God restored. I have still been using drugs, ususally because I am so much in pain about what has happened, I want to cover up the pain. I want to confess my sins, which has been stealing, lying, adultery and drug use. I love God, I miss God, I want God back and I want to be delivered. Thank you
Jared, Repent, repent,
Jared,
Repent, repent, repent! That's what my bible study teacher told me several weeks ago and she is right! Give everything to God and watch what he can do in your life! He HATES divorce! NEVER GIVE UP! Read Psalms! Get close with God and He will heal you... God bless you brother!
please I need help very bad
Hi this is F83 first of all I wanna thank you for reading my massage.I need your help very bad,I'm looking for people who pray for me, please pray for me cause I feel so weak,hopeless and unhappy every single day. It is misrable to have this kind of emtyness in my heart EVERY SINGLE DAY and I really don't have anybody to talk to cause I don't have friends and I don't think I could talk to my family because they wouldn't understand it.
I really believe in God and I really believe that God is with me and loves me every day.I know that God helped many people and I truly believe that he would help me one day too. I am not a bad person, I respect everybody. I don't hurt anybody and I'm not fighting either.I'm a very harmless person, I don't smoke and I never did, I don't drink alcohol either and drugs is not acceptable for me.
I know I should be happy for being healthy, for having my parents and siblings and for many other things in my life but it's just not easy for me to overcome this feeling because I feel the sadness every day. Many things are going through in my mind and I ask myself day by day,
WHY am I alone?
WHY don't I have any friends in my life?
WHY is it that I can't communicat with people?
Would I ever find love in my life?
Would I ever get married? and
What can I do to life me dreams?
I'm 25 years old I'm young and should have fun,I should go out with friends and maybe I should have a man in my life too,someone who loves me.I never really had a real realationship with a man.
I am just done with this world cause I am getting older and nothing is about to chance.
I pray often almost everyday,I go to church and I trust in the Lord. I really need his help,probably I pray wrong or just not to strong enough.
I just don't know what to do, thats why I am writing this massage for asking help,please pray for me please help me,I could need every single pray from you.
Thank you for your time,thank you for helping me and God bless you all,thank you:-)

My dear girl, I so hear your
My dear girl, I so hear your pain and feel great and deep compassion for you. I struggled with depression from my teenage years on- I was baptized and raised ostensibly Christian, but raised by a mother into occult New Ageism, whose idea of teaching me about love and my place as a woman in the world (on topic of love and romance, etc) was to give me a copy covering sexual diseases and how best to protect myself. She also was a big supporter of planned Parenthood and abortion, though thankfully the Lord kept me from ever being pregnant out of marriage, despite the bad morals I was raised with.
My mother was also cruel and constantly unkind..I felt like something was really wrong with me, and I was often terrified socially , and was horribly insecure with men, and gave myself sexually very early in "relationships" , and was very depressed.
Nothing seemed to be working..mind you, through all this, from the time I was a little girl - I don't know why- I knew God, I believed in God, and I prayed to God. I won't count that I was saved, I just knew and feared the Lord, and prayed to him, all through the years, all through the years I was tricked into New Age type psych "fixes" and occult things like calling online psychics, and even brief period in my life when I followed "gurus" - one of two times in my life when I was attacked in the night by satanic spirits (I didn't knw what they were then, because I had read in some BS New age tract that they were "alien visitors" or some such nonsense)- even in those times, when my bookshelves were full of all sorts of nonsense, I knew in my darkest hour to cry out " Jesus , God, help me".
and do you know what? EVERY SINGLE TIME, He did. As soon as I called out the Lord's name, in that minute the darkness left and the attack ended. But for all those years, the rest of the time, I was so very depressed- after all my mother's meanness and cruelties I believed so little of myself, I thought I was different from everyone else, that no one else would or could ever really know me or love me.
I am writing all this to tell you- it has all changed for me now, and it can for you too. And please, do what your heart and the Holy SPirit tell you- but my mother wanted to drug me and put me on prozac or whatever antidepressants were then available- and I resisted and resisted. You really only need God for this kind of spiritual despair. Open your heart and ask God to fill you with the Holy SPirit, and then pray that He guide you and show you where you are a blessing in the world- where you have brought light to others, given love to a friend, where you are lovely and worthwhile. Ask to be shown your true beauty , pray to be shown this and it will be given you - every woman is beautiful in her own way , truly, and one with a beautiful heart who loves God is magnificent. Look for where in your daily path and walk you can reach out and give a small kindness to someone else who may need it- whether it's smiling and giving a compliment to the teller at the five and ten cent store or giving a geuine smile to a lonely looking older person in the street- Go sees every kindess, and the more you open your heart to others, te more you will find yourself surrounded by friends-and see your deep, intrinsic worth. NOt one of us is put here by accident. You are not an accident, you are the beauty that He made you in.
I was so depressed and in despair - in my twenties people sometimes judged me to be in my late thirties- I had bad acne and sallow skin and wrinkles. NOw, in my late thirties, I know I am beautiful in the way God intended for me, and I am often judged to be ten years LESS than my age. Forgive me for the focus on looks, which is truly incidental, but just to know- if you ever judge who you are as less or abnormal in some way, it's just that damn old devil trying to get you to make less of yourself so he can get you to do things to degrade yourself and feel badly.
The statistics are so high on people committing suicide or hurting others (ie Columbine and all the other school shootings, every single one, involved a child shooter who had been prescribed antidepressants) that it makes me really wary when people, even good Christians, well intentioned , advise to take them.
God knows we really only need Him, as simple and cheap a solution as that may seem, it is so. I am a living testament to that, I am finally really , completely happy and I walk my days in joy knowing that The Lord is in control , and I am loved, and blessed. I once was lonely and despaired like you, I once thought I was worthless and would never marry- and dear heart- you are SO YOUNG! you have so many years left to find a man to love you. Truly, once you start loving yourself a man will love you as you are. Pray to God to be shown your own beauty .
And if you have dreams, write lists of these things and what you want to accomplish, and then give them up to God and look to where He directs you to go to begin accomplishing and having those dreams. WIth HIm, all things are possible.
I wish you all the love and blessings possible and imginable, and please know you are not alone- there are others who have been where you are, who have been suicidal, felt they were different, all this comes from lies- ask the Lord to show you the truth, and ask for the Holy SPirit to fill you, and you will be freed from this torment and feel the lightness of spirit that comes when you walk with God.
much love, C
down and out
F83-
It's easy for others to say "don't give up hope," but when you feel like there's nothing you can do to climb out of that deep dark hole, all those words do no good. It is my belief that God has created men who have created medicines to help humankind. It is a gift from God and should be treated as a gift. I have been in your spot before... I know exactly what it's like. At the time I did not trust or believe in God, but decided that I had to get help somewhere. My doctor told me I had depression and prescribed me an anti-depressant. This was the life rope that I deparately needed. I look back on that time in my life now and know that God had me in his hands and was guiding me. It was a true blessing that I broke down and went to my family doctor asking for help. God will always be there for you, but he also expects you to help yourself. Take a risk and go to your doctor.... don't think of it as giving in or that you are crazy. God knows that we need his help, and he offers it in many ways.
Good luck to you and God bless -Mary
F83 Realize...........
Hello F83,
Realize that the Devil sees your love for the Lord and he is trying to break you down by putting doubt in your head. If you truly love the Lord open your heart to him and leave your life in his hands.Leave the lord in charge of your life. He knows when is the right time for EVERYTHING! If you feel that void in your heart it is because you have not fully given your all to the Lord. And trust me I know it is difficult. But I can assure you that if you give your all to the Lord you will wake up so happy and the fire of Jesus will be with you whenever you call for it~! Belive in him! He will never let you down! Never!
As far as having a man in your life, girrrrl have you ever tried making God your man??!! If you have not you should! He gives you whatever you want, you just have to be faithful to him. You never know, maybe the Lord is working with your future_husband so that he and you can be ready for when it is time to meet.The Lord might want both of you in a speacial ministry, but first the Lord must work with both of you. Be paitent, ask the Lord for strenth and courage. Stop asking why , why , why and start saying THANK YOU LORD FOR EVERYTHING IN MY LIFE!!!
And I know as women we want that physical Love from a man who really truly loves us, trust me I know what your going through. I'm 19 and have been on my own since 16. I feel alone at times but I rebuke that feeling and pick up my bible and thank the Lord for coming into my life as such a young age.And I know in my heart that the Lord is going to bless me with a Great man of God, I just have to be paitent and trust in the Lord. You do to, I have been through the fire and back becuase of doubting the lord and lack of paitents. Love your life!You can go to church Monday-Friday, but if your heart is not open to the Lord completley, than your attendance at church is worthless.
Hold on sister, the LORD WILL TOUCH YOU. You will realize that ture love is only found in the Lord. No man , not your mother, father, brother , sister,grandmother, will ever love you the way THE LORD DOES. NOBODY WILL EVER BE THERE FOR YOU LIKE HE.SEEK AND YOU WILL FIND.
\God bless you sister,read the bible,pray, fast and you will see your life changing right before your eyes!/
Hey beautiful You must never
Hey beautiful
You must never forget that you are fearfully and wonderfully made. You are God's special possession and you were placed on earth for a reason. You have all the hope in the world coz Jesus lay on the cross for you. He had you in mind when he was being whipped and spet on.
You must never allow Satan to take away the joy that has been placed deep inside of you by our Lord. You are more than a conqueror and you can beat sadness.
Tell you self to rise up and be the woman God has created you to be. Having a man in your life or being married is not going to make you happy. You hae to sort out your feelings first and God will sort out the rest.
Why dont you start by putting on your favorite dress and perfume, take a walk and just admire the beautiful creatures and nature that God has made. Look at the fmily you have also and be very greatful coz some people do not have any family at all. Love yourself coz you are a princess, daughter of the one and true King. Dont let theworries of life rule you, coz you rock more than you know.
Take time to feel better and realize all you have.
Tonz of love
A sister you dont know
Help
My wife and I have been looking at houses in the hopes of buying our first house. We looked at a very nice house last night and the price is very reasonable. However the elderly gentleman who lived there passed away and he may have committed suicide. My concern is first for this gentleman and the hope that this is not true. Second, if he did my view on the house would change, only because I believe that the enemy always has a hand in these situations. I am not saying the man was evil or anyone else who has committed suicide is, only that the enemy will definitely exploit anything he can. My question is; does the act of suicide carry over, can the act bring evil into our realm and stay waiting for anyone to come in contact. This may seem like a strange or ignorant question, but I will not put my wife or children in harms way. Any advice would help and any scripture would be awesome.
Blessings in Christ,
Jonathon
JONATHON....
Hello,
The best thing you can do is get your Pastor(s) to come over and bless the house. It's always works,if there are any evil spirits in the house a true man Of God has the authority to rebuke them out. There is nothing you can do but that. Trust me you will feel much safer in your new home if you make it the Lord's home. God bless and congrats on your new home!
Thank you for the reply.
Thank you for the reply. This is solid advice and definitely a good plan. If we buy the house I will definitely ask my Pastor to bless the house.
Thank you again, Blessings In Christ,
Jonathon

Prayer Request
I have stumbled upon this site today as i always do when i look for scriptural leadership and influence, i've been doing this for some months now. I am looking for others to help me in prayer so that i can turn my life around and fulfill my potential. I am a divorced man, i committed adultery several times during my marriage. I have a young daughter i hardly see and when i call to speak to her she doesnt seem interested. I have lost every material possession, my career, i lost my best friend this year who was always a massive support in my life and i feel blessed that i was with her when she died. My possessions can easily be pakced into two suitcases and fitted into the back of any reasonably priced car. This is not all i have lost, this year i lost my floundering business, my self esteem, my oozing super confidence. In a nutshell I have hit rock bottom. If it wasnt for my parents I would be walking barefoot on the streets of my local town.
I am defiant in turning my life around, I believe in the Lord and I think of him many times a day, sometimes i really struggle to pray but not a day passes where i feel my thoughts being directed to the holy spirit. Through all of my trials I am desperate to be the man I was born to be, I have many times relived my misgivings and feel remorse and regret. I have begged my ex wife for forgiveness and I really did want to try again but sadly she lost interest and see's me as a total loser.
I would be eternally grateful for others to help me achieve turning my life around, attracting the best possible job i can get and to have all these seen and unseen blockages removed from my life. If i could achieve this right now i would feel like i have won the lottery. Thank you and blessing to all who read this and the very best of luck and God's love to all those above who are looking for answered prayers and divine inspiration.

Hello everyone my name is Bryan I reside in Texas with my two beautiful boys, and a lovely wife of 14 years. I’m 29 years of age, and I have been to church a few times when I was younger, but nothing ever serious, which I still do not attend. Well I have reached a point in my life do to certain circumstances where I am seeking God through Jesus Christ as my Savior, and I feel things are getting really tough for me as I am seeking, Satan just won’t let up on me because I have let him control my life for so long. I don’t know what to do, but the one thing I do know is that I do not want to go back to my old lifestyle. I need some help, I need lots of prayers, can someone help me? Send me a miracle....
Brian a few tips to help.
I have geared my life totally around God. God is the first thing I think of in the morning and the last thing I think of at night. And it is the best thing i ever did. Firstly I recommed you ask in prayer for God to fill your heart so full of the Holy spirit you are walking on air in love with the Lord. it will motivate everything you do in all the right ways. In fact I will pray for this for you. Secondly if you start to move yourself totally towards God things do improve. For example I only listen to Christian music or music that is God friendly. I read only God's word, Christian liturature and good testimony of how God is moving in the world. I do keep up with the news but never on Tv. In fact I don't watch Tv. I always devote time to God and worship and I spend everyday sometimes hours a day praying for others. Oh and very important I obey God's commandments. The more time I spend with God the less attack I get. I seem to get little attack of my own mind or will these days, it tends to come from outside influences. I am not saying I don't get attack these days because I do, it is just I won't make it easy for the evil one. I have had some mighty attacks from outside influences but even those we have prayer for. Also with God so much in your life you learn to overcome easier. I do understand you have children but these are things you can do as a family, you will be helping and guiding them also. You know the best thing of all is when you really start living with God as your main focus, your heart will really feel the amazing love of God 24/7. It is like being constantly in love only with our great love it is completely perfect.
YOUR HELP IS JESUS
Hey Bryan,
Just want to let you know that being Christain and obeying he Lord is not easy. We have to fight with Satan even more. He will continue to attck you, but you have to keep praying for strength and guidence. Praying is so powerful! Satan may have won a couple of battles in your life but be sure that HE DOES NOT WIN THIS WAR!Read the bible and you will be able to overcome all his attacks. Prepare yourself for war and have your sheild with you at all times, which is the Lord Jesus. If you seek the Lord he will never abandon you. Just be ready. Pray consatntly. Trust me with ,the word you will be able to kick the Devil's butt!!! He is and idiot after all. He left Gods side thinking he can be more powerful than his creator, so ofcourse you can win!!! God Bless you and your family.
Thanks
Thank you godSgift for taking the time to reply to my post, it is greatly appreciated. I’m so longing to find my calling in life, and the Devil is trying to keep me from it, but he shall lose in the light of Christ. I just pray that the Lord will reveal it to me real soon, and I know he will because he is never early, but also he is never late. God Bless You
i just wanted to tell you Jesus will help you with this.
God's gift is absolutely correct. Jesus is the way, seek closeness to him through prayer and God's word. He will never let you down. Never mind what that evil liar the devil tries to do, just keep on calling on the name of Jesus Christ,amen
Financial Freedom
We need financial curses broken. Pray we receive money- an abundance of money- and use it constructively and wisely- pray the bonds of debt never touch us again - pray that we give and pay our debts with joy and receive multiplied what went out and receive it with joy. May money never hinder us again.
We need curses broken concerning our families -
We are in a whole, someone is throwing dirt upon us and we are trying to dig out. Please pray-
I BELIEVE God is blessing us through all this- we just have to ask and then we will receive- I'm asking and asking all of you to ask as well!
I just recently went for an
I just recently went for an interview for a great company, which I could not bealive that I actually got an interview due to lack of in the past. I gave this all to God, because I did not know what to do any more in my search for a job. I struggle to provide for my family, but if I acquire this job it will no longer be any trouble. I now am waiting two weeks to find out if I got the job or not, I need some prayers to back me up. I know if God wants me to have it he will make it happen, I just need some prayers on this issue cause it would really mean alot to me thx.
Health problems
Please pray with me about my health problems. I have been struggling with depression for 2 years now, this has damaged my mind and due to poor life choices i have damaged my body. Please pray for physical and mental healing, faith and for restoration of my life. Thank you, Damo
Your Depression
Damo, I have been through two periods of depression, the first so severe I was bed-couch bound for most of the day, feeling like my body weighed a thousand pounds. The depression would come down on me, suddenly, like from the air above me, settle on me, and I'd have to lie down. One day when something made me sad and the weight started descending, I said, "No, I am going to praise the Lord anyway." Immediately, the weight went back up into the air, and I didn't get depressed. The next time several times when the depression descended, and I was lying down, if I forced myself - and it took strength to do it and it was a choice -to begin saying a Bible verse, the weight would lift. After several times, the depression descended no more. THUS, I came to see that at least one cause of my depression was demonic.
The second time I was depressed I went on Effexor and it helped. FOr the past 5 years I have lived under severe stress but I am not depressed. I have been taking cod liver oil capsules. THe DHA-EPA in it feeds my physical brain and that keeps my mind strong. We don't usually think our thoughts are connected to our physical brain, but it is. I order my capsules on-line from vitacost.com. You can go online, or you can call the toll-free number 1-800-381-0759 for a catalog. I use NSI Norwegian Cod Liver Oil capsules. You can get 300 capsules for 14.77 and they will last 5 months. God love you, Kathie

Please pray I need the Lords help
Please pray for me as I start 7 days of prayer and fasting. I need the help of Christ in a particular situation in my life that I don't know how to deal with, and I need the Lords help also for my family, in particular my eldest son, husband and father. I am surrounded by many unsaved souls also who I want dearly to find Christ. I feel I must fast and pray. Your prayers to help me get through all this would be much appreciated. Many thanks dear Brothers and sisters through Christ.
IF YOU BECOME SAVED SO WILL YOUR FAMILY..
If you seek the Lord with all your heart and become saved and keep your family in your prayers each night, then know that your loved ones will be saved in the name of the Lord Jesus. Think about it....if The Lord gave his life for us, then why cant he save you and your family? You have to believe in him with all your forces and he will show you how powerful he his. Read the bible to your family even when you think they are not listening and you will see. Becuase the WORD OF THE LORD STAYS RECORED IN EVERY HEART. His word ALWAYS has an effect...ALWAYS! Seek him and you will experience happiness and peace even , when through your problems. Have the Lord close and dont let go,,, you will see how he how his mercy dwells on us. I will pray that you feel how good the holy spirit feels when it's cleaning you! it's an aweseome feeling! pray for it!!! God bless you and your family.
I do those exact things thank you
Thank you, and thank God. It feels like God has inspired you to say those things: as I do exactly that. I read the bible out loud for that very purpose. I do it so as my family will hear God's word and I pray for their souls and salvation. God bless
Thank you
Thank you dear soul your kindness is much appreciated

Prayer
Thanks for all your support michael. You're a good man who shows the will of God. This is about my health but its hard to make a determination. One of my parents don't think anything is wrong with me. One of the neuroglists I saw determined I have what you call dystonia which is a horrorible disease. I done some research and it doens't look like there is a cure but they do have medicine to help aid with it. I need help because I've been having horrible spasms in my face that I want to go away. Please send some advice.
What to do about so-called incurable diseases
Hi Paul,
The best thing to do is to take medicine to help manage the symptoms until your faith grows through meditating on the Word of God. Through faith and patience we can receive miracles from God. They don't always come when we want them, so we have to settle it in our minds that we believe God does not lie, and we are not giving up.
The Word of God if meditated on can fix anything. Usually a lot of other stuff in us gets fixed while we are waiting to receive the physical healing we need. The Word of God works it in us.
The Universe is subject to God's Word and so is your flesh. See Proverbs 4:20-22. Best promise there is for physical healing - as it says "health to all your FLESH".
Health
Hi, I'd like prayer for continued good health. When I went for my physical last week, everything was fine, the only thing was that there was a little protien in my urin. which could indicate kidney disease. Its one of my fears to have any kind of disease. The doctor wasn't worried. I just pray that when I go to the Doctors this coming Wednesday that there will be no protien in my urin and that I will be healthy. I'd also like prayer to keep me free from Anxiety and worry. Amen

Prayer for your salvation
Hi my dear friend.
Let us pray for deliverance from the evil that has been plaging your soul.
Lord father I come now to the foot of your throne to pray for Titus. We denounce the evil one who has plagued distruction on Titus over the years. We plead the blood of Jesus on Titus and bind any occult, witchcraft, sorcery, and any other spirits that have come into his life, in the name of Jesus of Nazareth. We bind and loose them in heaven and on Earth such as you said we can. In the name of Jesus we demand you satan to let loose any holdings on Titus life you may be trying to hold on to. In the name of Jesus. Father Lord, the great I am, we thank you for your carring loving nature. We ask to fill any spots in titus life with your Holly Spirit. Thank you lord and all praises to the great God and father of Earth and the heavens.
Titus in addition to this you need to let go of any personal items that maybe allowing Satan into your life I dealt with many and it was objects or words that allow him in your life. I will keep praying for you brother and God bless you soul. Love from a fellow brother in the body of Christ
Jesus came so that through Him we could be free from the bondage
Jesus came so that through Him, we could be free from the bondage of evil. demons fear Jesus greatly, invite Jesus into your life and heart firstly and most importantly, ask Him for forgiveness of your sins, those you know of and those you don't. Let go of any grudges you have towards others also and then believe. We are all sinners if we know it or not, we are. These are all things you will come to know as The Lord starts working in your life. Start reading the bible, it will help you in your new life as a Christian. Follow Gods commandments. Jesus will help you with all this, just pray for help. Don't just believe me read the scripture below. Jesus really has the power to drive away demons. By asking Jesus into your heart you will receive help with your current fears and problems. Jesus will help you also to be on the path that God intended for you. I believe he is already trying to help you by guiding you here. Much help is available to you through this site, which is I feel guided by God. look up the salvation prayer on this site and say it, and most importantly believe in Jesus, He is the way the truth and the life. Here is some scripture from The Bible taken from
Mark 1:34 "and Jesus healed many who had various diseases. He also drove out many demons, but He would not let the demons speak because they knew who He was".
You see how this passage describes how Jesus is Lord and Demons have no power against the power of God. He would not even let it speak and it had no power to do so. Many passages of The Bible describe how Jesus drives away demons and they have no power over Jesus. See example below Matthew 8;28 through to Matthew 8:34
28When he arrived at the other side in the region of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men coming from the tombs met him. They were so violent that no one could pass that way. 29"What do you want with us, Son of God?" they shouted. "Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time?"30Some distance from them a large herd of pigs was feeding. 31The demons begged Jesus, "If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs."32He said to them, "Go!" So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the lake and died in the water. 33Those tending the pigs ran off, went into the town and reported all this, including what had happened to the demon-possessed men.
It is Jesus you need now. When you ask Jesus into your life and submit your life to Him he will be with you, and evil has no power over Him. Fear not my friend. He Loves you and forgives sins and wants you to be a Child of God and to have a relationship with Him, He will love you and help you. he will break the bondage and lies that the evil one tries to hold over you through fear of these things you speak. Please Read some of the lovely testimonies on this site from people who have turned away from the occult and who have been rescued by Jesus. It will show your heart some of the wonderful things God is doing for those who seek him. If you have personally practiced the occult or been involved in it in any way (see also a list on here). You will need to reject all works of the devil also and pray for deliverance. The deliverance prayer is also on this site too. Ask God to bring a good Christians into your life also. Then my friend, I advise you to look for a good church also. Ask God to help you find the right one and he will. The next step is to get a water baptisim through a good Christian minister. I noticed that people on this website are based all over the world, so you could make some new friends and find contacts here also. Please be patient though when you post a question or prayer request as it sometimes takes time to get a reply. Jesus loves you and wants you to seek him, He wants you to be a Child of God. God bless you dear soul Titus as you seek Our Lord Jesus. My prayers are with you.

Marriage and Alchohol
I know that prayer makes a difference and I am in a battle for my life that has many fronts. Dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, let me remind you of the Psalmists reminder to guard your heart! I was saved in 86' and helped found an inner-city church in Louisiana 88' to 96', but I started losing traction in 98' and in 99' went into a full tail spin with a few beers then cigs and then hard liquor. I still went to church and tried to serve the Lord, but Satan has been able to nullify any help God would give me because of the sin. I just can't pay my bills, and my wife has left me. I have stopped drinking for a few days now and cigarettes I will start on July 16th, one at a time. Well, there it is my finances are a wreck, my beautiful wonderful life has left me, and i have addictions to contend with. I know the word so I am back in it and confessing His promises, I just need you guys to stand with me and pray. Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou in advance.
Please for a Godly Marriage
Beloved in Christ,
Please pray that God will do a miracle in my life. My parents are praying for my future. I pray that God will just send the right person into my life and will not allow me to meet any wrong person and then get dissappointed. Please pray that God will make a tesimony for all my unsaved family members that they may know Christ.
BE PAITENT FOR THE MARRIAGE YOU WANT
The Lord knows your heart and he knows what and who is best for you. I can relate to what your going through. I am 19 yrs old and i have gone through things in life that have made me mauture in an extreme way. I would love to have a caring husband one day. I want a husband to love God with all his forces and then to love me. I know God has my husband put aside for me. Its is easier said than done to be paitent, but we must not go against God 's will or else the Devil will trick us and we might end up with the wrong men who will destory our lives. I was being inpaitent with the Lord recently I was datin.And one sunday ago a prophet came to my church to preach, I went up for prayer and this is what the Lord told me, "I am giving you a warning, save your self for me or a deasease will touch your body, I love you and i know your heart, and sometimes you trust in people you shouldn't trust, through me you will see how people really are. I am warning you. Your going to see who i really am." That was the first time i ever heard the Lord scold me. I was scared but relieved that he stays by my side. The Lord has also told me before, that he has my husband and to be paitent and I still disobyed him ,but after he scolded me, I will not disobey him. I am going to wait paitenly until the Lord sends my husband to me. You should too. Keep yourself busy with church and helping your community.And make your prayer life, your medicine when those inpaitent thoguhts come to mind. Trust me the Lord wants us to be happy but we must go through this wait to appreciate his gifts. God bless you and be strong and courageous against all temptations.
Prayer Request
It's been awhile that I responded to this and I would like to say thank you and everyone for their support. I now know that God truly hasn't abandoned me but somethings are still going wrong. I'll state my first concern first which is my health. I just recently got a good paying career with the Lords help but my health seems to be failing and if I have problems now then it would be over. My next is my addiction which I'm in a struggling cycle because sometimes I just fall and its not feeling good on me. I need good Christian help and guidance and I hope that Jesus is still willing to listen to my voice since I've said but recently taken and rebuked the words I've spoken and thought. I don't have the luxurys of some because sometimes I feel that God doesn't realize that but I know better know. I would also ask the church for advice and healing but I don't really go to any because I want to go to the Church of Christ the real one until the end of time so sites like yours help me greatly for someone so alone. I'm an orphan of the world and one of many of the least of his children. Any advice would help.
Hi Paul
I'm glad you got the job and you've seen some of God's blessings recently.
Paul, you might never find a perfect church, but its important to find a church where the people love the Word of God. You too can be a person who loves God's Word.
Jesus came to call people apart for Himself. Those who trust Him and separate themselves from evil will be counted worthy to enjoy eternity with Him forever. Do all you can to be in that number. What I mean is, present your body to God, give yourself to God, and give your attention to God's Word. Study it, so that you will know if what you hear in a church is of God or not. Focussing on God's Word will change your mind and change your life in ways you could not believe now.
Don't trust absolutely in any man or human leader. But trust God to send His Spirit to help you get free of every worldly or fleshly chain. And trust God's Word.
My encouragement to you is, if you want to be finally free, and not be lost, give priority to the Bible, and prayer. Seek God until you find Him. Use your spare time for that. Things will start changing.
With Christian love,
Michael

I need prayers for a husband!
I greet you brethren in the Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ. I need prayers for a husband. since I got born again I know it is not right to date. However I do feel alone at times, which is bad since the devil can want to use that so I get off my walk with the Lord. I have seen a brethren in church where I go, I had prayed since last year July for God to take away this feeling or that his be done. I do not know what to do, I won't go directly to him but I know I need to pray. I did get an answer that I need to be patient and that he will come to me, but I am starting to lose my hope. Please pray that I do not lose hope and that God sends him to me. God bless you. I honestly do love this man.
My wife is leaving me - pray for permanent reconciliation
Please pray for my wife and myself. She wants to leave me. I am open to the change in my heart, my mind, and my will and my actions and I fully allow God to do this. Please pray that my wife will have a change in her heart, her mind, her will, and her actions and that she would fully allow God to do this.
Please pray that:
1.) Our minds would be bound to the mind of Christ.
2.) Our wills would be bound to the will of God.
3.) Our actions would be bound to the Fruits of the Spirit - love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness, faithfullness, goodness and self-control.
4.) Our hearts would be bound to the Heart of God.
5.) Our marriage would be bound by the Spirit of God and the Spirit of His perfect love.
That true change will take place in both our hearts, minds,wills, and actions speedily, and that permanent reconciliation will take place speedily and immediately through the Power and the Love of God.
Thank you
