Please pray for my son pray that God would save him and deliver him. Pray that he would be a great man of God and a great man he just turned 18 last month. Pray that he would be focused, and pray that God would fill him with his Spirit and drive out any spirits, behaviours, and attitudes that are not pleasing to God. Pray for a quick work to be done God don’t need no long and drawn out process he can do an instant change in his life
Please pray also for me. I have been hurt so many times in life and I just realize, now that I am striving to get higher in God that my flesh is so strong past hurts and hurts that occurred within this year have opened the door to – bitterness, envy, jealousy, backbiting (this may be too strong of a word as I talked about people when they did me wrong, the problem is I just wouldn’t let it go I kept talking and focusing on what they did to me), pointing of the finger, lust, arrogance, pride, self righteousness, vengeance, I believe these things exist in my nature and even as I write this I can feel the stoniness of my heart. It’s like I have no energy, no strength. The anointing of God was so intense on me one morning my voice even had changed it was raspy and I felt the separation of the flesh and the Spirit within me. I got a phone call from someone who was to pick me up for church and he said, “I’m coming for you 10:00 not 10:15 not 10:30, ten, and it was like an involuntary reaction (like breathing, I had no control over what happened). I was not offended in any way by what was said but it was as if the flesh was just waiting to hear something immediately the flesh become STRONG and the anointing vanished and my voice turned back to normal. That was something. That happens too when I fast. I would be humbled feel the anointing but the minute the fast is over and I start eating again the flesh becomes STRONG and then it was as if I never fasted. I am praying for a change of heart 360 degree turn around. I tell you as I write this my heart feels so stony like the walls of Jericho. Also pray for anything that is not like God that exists in my life (the sin that so easily besets and the laying aside of heavyweights) that I may not know, because even though I have listed some things it could be that they are not the problem it could be something else or both.
Chantell
Hi Chantell,
I am happy to join you in prayer to the Almighty God for your need:
Heavenly Father, Wonderful Counselor, Ultimate Healer, I pray healing and wholeness for Chantell. Father You are sovereign and know all the details surrounding Chantell’s prayer request, so I ask that You will deliver her from all that is not of You. Almighty I ask You to please deliver Chantell and her son from the plans of the enemy. Enable Chantell and her son to resist temptation and live their lives with You at the center. Heavenly Father, help them both to resist all temptation to disobey You. Help them not to do anything that would keep their prayers from being heard. Grant that they may not even think about sinning or acting in a way that would displease You. Chantell’s desire is to do only the things that bring You glory. Enable her to do that. Help Chantell and her son to want to live the way You want them to live so that they can move into all You have for them. Put a holy barometer in Chantell that always measures the spiritual climate she’s in so that she never compromise Your ways. Warn her whenever she is close to crossing over the line from doing things Your way into doing what is wrong in Your sight. Thank You! Father God for the wonderful rewards of peace, wholeness, and fulfillment You give to all those who live according to Your commandments.
Lord, help Chantell to understand that life lived by the power of Your Spirit has greater rewards and profits than anything she can accomplish in her own flesh. Help Chantell and her son to live in a godly manner so that they can receive the promises You have for them both in this life as well as in the life to come. Lord, show Chantell if there is anyone from whom she need to ask forgiveness. If there is anything hurtful she may have said or done to someone, whether knowingly or not, I pray You will bring it to her understanding so she can confess it to You and possibly to that person and be forgiven. Enable Chantell to know the healing that forgiveness brings. Jesus, give her the ability to love those who have hurt her, to bless those who have been cruel to her, and to be good to those who have behaved badly toward her. Help Chantell to pray for the people she least want to pray for. She’s Your child, and she desires to inherit Your ability to show love and mercy at all times. Whenever Chantell loses hope or become discouraged, I pray that Father God, You would help her to better understand Your Word and enable her to draw on all the hope that is to be found in it. Help Chantell to know You better so that she can fully understand how great her hope is in You. May the hope she finds in Your Word gives her joy in her heart.
Father God, I pray that Chantell and her son will receive the free gift of eternal life through Jesus Christ the Lord. I pray that You would grant genuine repentance to Chantell and her son, a repentance that will cause them to hate sin and to turn from it. Father, I ask that You will send people continually into Chantell and her son’s lives who will share the gospel with them. I plead in the name of Jesus that You will put a new heart in Chantell and her son and that You will place Your Holy Spirit in them. Father, I pray that You will open Chantell and her son’s hearts so that they will receive and believe the gospel. I ask You to bind and remove Satan’s work in Chantell and her son’s lives and to open their eyes to the truth of the gospel. Father, I pray that the pleasures of this world and the pressures of life will not choke the Word of God that has been sown into Chantell and her son’s lives.
Almighty Father, I pray that You will enable Chantell, her family and friends to open their hearts to Your spirit of wisdom and revelation, have the eyes of their hearts enlightened, and know the hope of Jesus’ calling, the riches of the glory of his inheritance, and the surpassing greatness of his power towards those who believe. I ask that You will never allow the enemy to snatch Your Truth away from Chantell, her family and friends. In the name of Jesus Christ, King of Kings, please hear and bless this prayer O Heavenly Father. Amen

P.S. Chantell please place God at the center of you and your family’s lives by way of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ which is where true happiness resides. God knows your struggle and will not forsake you. He will help you to resist the temptation to do wrong and enable you to do what’s right. You must stay focused on Him and His promises to you in His Word ( the Holy Bible) and not satan’s lies. We must always gird ourselves with the Word of God since satan is always working to bring us to destruction. Boost your faith in God by meditating on His Word day in and out. Remember we are all a work in progress so don’t let the enemy weigh you down with guilt and condemnation – God will take you to each glory one at a time to bring you out of the darkness of satan’s lies. Continue to pray for your teenage son without ceasing for there are many struggles ahead for our young children today. May God Bless You and Your Family Richly.
In His Service,
