OCTOBER PRAYER REQUESTS

"Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. 
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken"      
Ecclesiastes 4:12  



This is meant to be an interactive blog based on comment and response system. That's where YOU come in, we need YOU to help the Lighthouse of Prayer work effectively by joining us in sharing your prayer requests or other's you encounter AND then by leaving a prayer for them, let them know that you are lifting them in prayer with us here.

WE REALLY NEED YOU !

This blog ONLY works if WE all JOIN together 
in prayer and sharing.

We'd love to see your Prayer requests (Petitions) in what normally would be the Comment area, where others will be supporting you through their prayers hopefully, written as a response to your petition there. We'd like this to be a community of prayer, praying for one another.

We encourage you ALL to pray whenever you read a need of someone, so please respond here with a prayer also. You need not be a team member to leave a prayer for someone or bring a prayer need here. We all can lift up a prayer for each person and encourage someone, help to carry another's burden, stand with them and bless them.

This blog post is only for 
PRAYER REQUESTS 

Please use other posts to write other prayers 
but
Your PRAYERS are always welcome here!

When you leave a prayer request, 
please come back to read the prayer(s) for you.

Hopefully you will find them right under your 
PRAYER REQUEST
made possible with the new feature of 
REPLY

If you are praying for that prayer request
please use the REPLY right under that prayer request.

When you add a PRAYER REQUEST in comments, 
please
write PRAYER REQUEST first

Thank you in the name of Jesus
let us pray

Yes, we really do need each other. I ask for prayer for other to join me in prayer for healing for my mom and myself. Pray too for us to grow from strength to strength. I am feeling so depleted and it is hard to pray for others at this time. God bless.

Pray we can prevail and make positive inroads for mom's sake. Pray for mom's protection too as she is very stressed out.

Joyful said...

Father thank you for bringing Denise home from the hospital and looking after her. We pray a continued healing touch on her body.

Please help him, comfort him, strengthen him and give him the resources he needs to do what he must do. We ask in Jesus' precious name, Amen.

From the Heart said...

Father I ask that You would touch the daughter, Molly who is fighting cancer. She does not have to do this by herself, but with her Mom, her friends, the prayer warriors here at The Lighthouse.

Amen!

I pray that my heart will go back into normal rhythm before Friday. I know that the doctors are taking good care of me, and I trust you that you are in control. Thank you, Lord. We give you thanks and praise, in Jesus name, Amen.

Peggy said...

Forgive me Cathy for not coming here first to pray for you here but ...

Heavenly Father, You heard my prayers for Cathy and know every part of Cathy's situation far better than I so I come in agreement with Cathy and stand on Your Promises of Healing for Cathy. Go before Cathy this day and meet her immediate needs by restoring her heart to its normal rhythm ... since Cathy has been so gifted my You in the melodies of music, I'm sure You can tune and sync her heart rhythmically to as it should and remove all these irregularities and the worry that Cathy is having that needs Your calming touch. Take away anything that is causing this and replace it with Your peace, Your Comfort, Your perfect beat in her heart. Cathy loves You so and is so deeply concerned for our country, and others and so much that we (she) is facing in particular... You know as You know every fiber and hair on her sweet head. I pray that Cathy had a restful night and her pre op goes well or better yet that they will not need to do the heart procedure on Fri. at all. No matter what we do trust You and yYou are in control. Have Your hands and Your wisdom guide Cathy's medical care. Thank You for Cathy! Thank You for her heart! Thank You that Your will will be done in Cathy and that we can give You all the praise and glory for watching over her and keeping Your eye on her as well as Alice, Denise, Joyful and anyone else who passes by here in search of You or in need of Your Healing! You are great! You are mighty! You are Cathy's Healer as well as Our Healer, each one of us. You are the Great Physician, Jehovah Rapha! We completely believe that You heal by Jesus' name and by His stripes we are healed. Thank You LORD, for healing our dear sister(s) in Jesus' name... we await a good report to give You all the praise, glory and honor due You alone!

Peggy said...

Heavenly Father, Be with all of the family as they need Your Holy Spirit as their Comforter. Help them to grieve their loss and pass through this season of grief with Your divine help and healing. Be with each one and hold them tightly. Thank You for this dearly loved great aunt, may she rest in peace and may Your holy angels welcome her into her heavenly rest with You and others who have gone before her.

Be with each of the many people that Denise has lifted to You. Ease their hurts and heavy hearts. Help us Lord, in this time of so much loss to accept and bear and press through this valley to Your Son, Jesus!

I ask that You come Holy Spirit and hear the words of these broken hearts, the needs of so many and move as You breathe hope and faith and healing into them and us in Jesus' name, we pray ...

Peggy said...

O LORD, WE ask that You help Makalia and her little man to heal and recover. You created these lovely creatures and You are in control but we ask for Your grace over this situation and if this surgery is needed that You direct and guide carefully this sweet dog's care. Encourage the ones that love this pet that You are with them and You still heal, even the dogs we love. Thank You for loving us and our pets, keep them safe and watch over them as they mend.

Cathy said...

Father, Thank you that my heart is now fixed. And thank you for dear Peggy and for her precious prayer, and all of my sweet online friends who prayed for me. I give you thanks and praise for taking care of me. Please heal all of those in prayer requests and my dear sisters who need healing. I love you, in Jesus name. Amen

From the Heart said...

Thank you Father for answering the prayers of all these dear people who are so faithful to the prayer requests
listed here at the Lighthouse.

Please bless Peggy and help her to get a new computer to lighten her load. Give her peace in her life in all areas of her life. Restore all that has been stolen from her by the enemy. She loves You so much. Amen

From the Heart said...

Heavenly Father, I lift up Denise to You and ask that you heal everything that the enemy has stolen from her. Restore her marriage and may she get her life back together while she is away from the computer. She is Your child and so faithful here at the Lighthouse. May she feel Your loving arms around her as she recovers in the name of Jesus. Amen.

From the Heart said...

Prayer Request: Heavenly Father, I thank You for the vacation last week with dh's family. It was the brothers' 23rd year for fishing and they caught a lot especially toward the end of the week. Thank You for the nieces and nephews who came for their first time to be with us.

Father I do have a prayer request for one of dh's nieces. Her name is Donna and she desperately needs a healing of her mind. She was a beautiful teenager but You know the things she has been involved in and done that has taken her outside beauty as well as her inside beauty. Please put someone in her life that can pray with her, be a friend to her and help her find herself, in the name of Jesus. Help her sister and brother to know what to do when she comes to visit. Father, You know more about this dear niece than any of us do so I again ask, as humbly as I know how, that You will be able to reach her through all the tangled mess and bring this sweet lady back to her close family and all of us. I give You praise now for what You are going to do to bring this about. Your word says, "ask and you will receive." She can't ask right now but You have the power, and the love for this dear lady and I give You all the praise, Honor and glory not only for her physical healing, but spiritual healing. There is nothing impossible for You. Amen.

From the Heart said...

Heavenly Father, You know how much I love You and You know all the physical problems You have brought me through (even restoring me from a medication that made me stop breathing - two different times). I give You all the praise, honor and glory for what You have done and what I believe You will do in my life. You, alone, know all the things that need healing in my body and I ask, in the precious name of Jesus, for healing from the top of my head to the bottom of my feet. Thy will be done, Father. Amen.

Peggy said...

Dearest LORD God Almighty ... Here I am, just coming to stand in agreement with Alice (when it should be the other way around) for DENISE! You know how vital she has been to this prayer ministry here and around blogland yet Denise herself has many prayer needs that we bring before You. My heart aches and grieves for this dear sister in Christ. And frankly, I did not know how to pray this for her as Alice has done so graciously! Thank You Lord, for Denise! Thank You for her service to You! Thank You for Alice, Cathy and Joyful!

I do not know how to pray except I know You hear and heard the many prayers I've lifted on her behalf so I trust You to watch over her and do Your will in her life.

I lift up the Lighthouse of Prayer today and ask the same that Your will be done. Guide me. Direct me. Let me know where we should go. The faithful that come here and pray, and those who just pass by ... I wonder how to continue in the next 6 months or who knows. I leave this in Your hands because mine and Alice and even dear Cathy have ours full as Denise did ... but You are more than capable. I will be listening. With more than 100 "followers" (and I use that term loosely because we week to follow Only You) ... you'd think I would have a few more prayer people leaving requests or prayers for others. I will not let the enemy steal this or win. So the next two months will go as regular to end this year as I seek Your will and direction for the Lighthouse of Prayer. It was not meant just for 3-4 strands as the verse we claim declares, it was meant to be interactive with all 100+ and beyond the perimeters of this blog page to the many that need prayer... I pray for each one that added whatever part they have had and ask You to stir up "Prayer" partners, intercessors, warriors, and open doors for the ones that need prayer to not be ashamed or held back from writing out their prayer requests because we ALL need prayer.

Yes, Lord wrap Your loving arms around Denise, and each of the others, especially dear Alice, Cathy and Joyful so that we would remain strong in You and not give up the battle or the fight. May You raise up a warrior strength in us to stand and declare Your Word. May we continue to reach out as Denise has done when there is a need and share. Have You way O Lord. We stand committed to pray even when we do not type them out, we are praying and standing together in one accord ... Bring HEALING and deliverance and continue to protect each one of us in Jesus' Name...

Peggy said...

Father God, Standing with dear Alice and her prayers! I ask that You continue to meet all her needs and those of her loved ones, for You alone are the Answer we need! Thank You for hearing our prayers and answering each one as we wait for You and keep on seeking You and Your will to be done!

My heavenly Father, I come to You this day with my own prayer petition for my physical health right now. I do not know if
it is an attack but You already have heard me crying out to You, asking for Your healing touch. You know my situation and You also know exactly what I need because You know that I do not trust the medical facilities here (although they may be the best for the Mexican people, they are not at all the standard that I have back home, even if there may be great ones here, I have a lack of trust in them and that's enough). Help me to breathe without pain. Release anything that may be blocking my airways. Thank You for clearing my nasal passages but now it is fallen below ... if it is an infection, You know, if it is anything else, You know. Guide me and direct me. Breathe Your fresh air into me. Strengthen that part of my lung and/or bronchial tubes because I do not receive any family curse from my mother or anyone over my health. You have given me You healing many times, from a collapsed lung to simple sore throats. You have delivered me often from bronchitis and other respiratory problems. You are healed all my diseases (except for a few thorns) and I give You thanks!
I will not fear but trust in You. Touch me Lord once again. I have had no other cold symptoms prior to this so this has caught me off guard but not You. There are no surprises for You, So I will believe that You have the cure this time as well.
I trust You with my right side pain and know that You will give me wisdom in what I do and how long I wait. I will rest in You.
If it's just a cold that entered my back of my lung, send it out in Jesus' Name and make my lungs and respiratory function as You created them. I am Yours! Thank You for Your promises of healing and that Jesus bore all our sufferings on the Cross! I lay this at His feet and I will give You all the glory, praise and honor as You heal all of us; Alice, Cathy, me and Denise too in Jesus' precious name, we release Your healing power and strength and wisdom over us and cast the rest to the pit...

Peggy said...

Heavenly Father, I join and stand in agreement with the prayers of Alice and Joyful for her mom, as I do each time a prayer is posted and I receive them, I make it a point to pray (often I fail to come here and leave a prayer). Forgive me. Thank You for Joyful and her cousin taking care of her mom, please give them wisdom and direction for the management of their care. Protect Joyful and her mom, as You help them to be calm and less stressed in this adjustment. May she breathe freely and each day may You cover her with Your very own breath to sustain and strengthen her. Help her to feel more secure in You as You watch over You.
Open doors for Joyful and her cousin to make the necessary inroads for quality care to ease all of this for everyone concerned. Thank You for hearing us. We look forward to a good report as we give You praise for all You will do in Jesus' name

From the Heart said...

Heavenly Father, I ask in the name of Your son, Jesus, that You would heal Peggy from the top of her head to the soles of her feet and everything in between. Only You know what is invading her body and only You have the answer to all that is happening in dear Peggy's body and mind. She has given of herself to work for You, bless her in every situation, let her feel Your loving arms around her. Father, we all need to know that we are loved, especially by You.

PRAYER for Our Nation

This was shared in an email from the Presidential Prayer Team:

Declaration of Independence Signer

Samuel Chase
George Washington (1732-1799), 1st President of the United States

"Almighty God: We make our earnest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy Holy protection; and Thou wilt incline the hearts of the Citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to Government; and to entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another and for their fellow Citizens of the United States at large, and particularly for their brethren who have served in the Field. And finally that Thou wilt most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that Charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind which were the Characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed Religion, and without a humble imitation of whose example in these things we can never hope to be a happy nation. Grant our supplication we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." --

This prayer of George Washington appears in St. Paul's Chapel in New York City.
