The Bible tells us to “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.â€; “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you…..â€; â€Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.â€; and to “Confess our faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.â€

Well, here goes. Please ask our Heavenly Father to help me as I am having a difficult time winning the battle over the flesh. I try. I pray and more often than not, I fail. It’s true at work and at home. It’s true in every aspect of my life. I try to do the right thing. Then the wrong thing comes along and I get sidetracked just long enough to fail. I really believe my family motto should be “It seemed like a good idea at the time.â€

At any rate, please pray also and ask God to help me win the upcoming court case. I’m facing criminal charges. If it is His Will, I would like to stay out of jail, the truth is, I would like to see this case thrown out of court. However, like so many accused of wrongdoing I will not claim to be without guilt. I made a series of poor choices and in this case, I am guilty of only poor judgment and a misdemeanor charge in the worst case scenario. My accusers have grossly exaggerated the extent of my wrongdoing, I believe, in an effort to cover the questionable business practices they are involved in

Enough said on that subject except I ask that you pray for me, my attorney, the judge, the prosecuting attorneys, my local law enforcement officer, my accusers and their family and friends, and ask our Heavenly Father to first and foremost bring each and every one of us involved in this unfortunate set of circumstances into a closer relationship with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Now I’m not going to go as far as to say any or all of these people (except for me) are saved or not. That’s not my job, nor is it my place to make a judgment call, especially in the case of one’s Salvation and/or one’s personal relationship with our Lord. God knows each and every one of our hearts, He knows our needs, He knows our desires, and He also knows our motives for doing the things we do.

Now, I would also ask you pray for a Brother in Christ named Farhan. He is a minister in a Muslim country. As such, he, his family, and his congregation are under constant scrutiny and persecution. When I think of the things I worry about and complain about I should take time to consider the problems faced by this body of believers every second of every day of their lives. I can’t speak for anyone else, but even with the possibility of having to go to jail for what I’m accused of doing, I’ve got it easy. I have a roof over my head. I’ve got a job, and I’ve got food on the table. What do I truly have to worry about? Compared too many, not a thing.

Now the following folks are people our Lord puts on my heart to pray for. In most cases there’s nothing specific so I just ask that you pray for them and ask God’s anointing, His Blessings, and more important, that His Will be done in their lives. So here goes, please pray for Dreu, Beka, Liz, Sara, David, Josh, Danielle, Shannon, Kymmie, Debbie, Tom and Doris, Howard and Clara, Glenda, Janet, Sean, Cort, Robert and Camille, Greg and Laurie, Kevin and Kelly, Barbara, Julie, Ron and Dionne, Scott, Patrick, Kenny, Marsha, Suzan, Angela, Christian, Eden, Lily, Marsha, Chris, Katie, Susie, Cathy, Cindy, Virginia, Joe and Bridgette, Harry, Bradley, Chris, Candice, Brian and Megan, Heaven, Robin, Emma, Wendy, April, Tracy, Carmen, Juliana, Anna, Robert, Viktor, Cody, Jill, Judy, Richie, Cheri, Darlene, Scott, Bruce, Paul, Wendy, Amy, Susan, Sally, Pam, Tina, Carol, Lisa, Patty, Cathy, Erin, Sheila, Bob, Cody and Jill, Oren and Peggy, Rob, Sean, Josh, Gary and Yvonne, Liz, Lonnie, Jimmy, Justin, Briana, Colin, Justin, Forrest, William and Tracy, Scott and Jo, Lynda, John and Barb, Georgia, Jacquie, Carmen, Michelle, Douglas, Marna, Cory and Ramona, Rority, Rowdy, Random, Morgan, Tyler, Trevor, Travis, Shawna, Coral, Jacquie, Lana, Johnny, Sterling, Kira, Mick, Sammy, Sarah, Carey, Phil, Kim, Andy and Jackie, Paul and Andrea, Paul, Charles, Vic and Boo Boo, Grant and Tina, Tori, Babe, Tracy, Chan and Jacoba, Rhonda, Stacey, Casey and Stacey, Jane, Rob, Dennis, Sherwin, Mark, Ron, Maui, Rosemarie, Judy, Ellen, Kay, Kathy, Sue, Jane, Carol, Barbara, Terry, Dosha, Diana, Blake, Rich, Kevin, Danny, Steve and Susie, Geoff, Mary, Steve and Demi, Vic and Debbie, Johnny and Krista, Wayne, Larry and Colleen, Dan and Helen, Eric and Laura, Angie, Dawn, Libby, Mike and Annie, Chowder, Skillet, John, Everett, Warren, Hank, Chris, Suzanne, Tom and Cindy, Clay and Julie, Clay and Patty, Jeremiah, Jennifer, Mike, Jason and Sasha, Loren and Sue, Karen, Debbie, Richard, Danny, Lisa, Mary, Taylor and Summer, Mike and Winter, Patrick and Christine, Danielle, Jasmine, Christine, Mason, Elijah, Sheila, Heather, Logan, Holly, Kevin, Brophy, Civ, Damien, Brandon, Daryl, Trefor, Bronwyn, Ceredwyn, Dan and Frances, Francis and Rebecca, JB and Glenda, Forrest, William and Tracy, Ian, Camron, Mriah, Stan and Bridget, Breanna, Paul, Roxanne, Scott, Jeff, Mike and Brooke, Rob and Jesse, Marc, Glenn, Teri, Tommy and Diana, Levi and Anna, Chiara, Sherri, Shelley, Jeff, Felix and Angela, Dean, Alegra, Shelley, Leilani, Dennie, Daniel, PC and Rebecca, Jonathan and Candice, Tom and Tina, Danielle, Julie, Paul, Aaron, Penny, Wes, Jesse, Donna, Pam, David and Laura, Jerry and Kim, Lori, Rob, Dennis, Steve, Will and Brook, Merle, Bobby, Jimmy, Ronny, Ricky, Lex, Lachlan, Donald, Colleen, Charlie, Randy, Nicky, Brian and Rikki, Christine, Tracy, Jennifer, Tom, Doug, Dean, Danny, Kelly, Molly, Mark, Bob, Tom, Erik, Scott, Joey, Patrick, Daniel, Mindy, Randi, Sheryl, Joan, Miguel, Virginia, Fernando, Rosa, Antonio, Jose, Francisco, Juan, David, Corrine, David and Janet, Mary Grace, Niko and Sue, Alexis, Devin, Eddie and Genie, Barret, George and Paul, Amanda, Alexis, Kim, Jim, Tim, Tom, Pete and Erin, Johannes and Angie, Archie and Carrie, Caryis, Aaron, Adam, Morgan, Bonnie, Glen, Alister, Bill, William, Scott and Patricia, Joe, Vern, Nigel and Libbie, Virginia, Wendy, Bobby and Lynette, Joleen, Jaileen, Tiffany, Amena, Michelle, Mike, LaRue, Bo, Twitch, Opie, Dumb Dumb, Jay and Robin, Riley, Barbara, Ann, Eli, Freedom, Abe and Marlene, Eileen, Sonja, Elton, Norm, Harry, Jonathan, Don, Sandy, Erik and Kellie, Lars, Donny and Sarah, Raelene, Marcus, Anna, Ryan, Al and Gail, Mario, Julie, Frank, Loretta, Randy, Gayle, Al, Jack, Gayle, Jack, Sam, Sue, Kira, Rich and Janice, Sammy, Kira, Maile, Judith, Elyse, Elise, Richard, Kim, Chip, Jennifer, Sarajane, Juniper, Julia, Gregg and Carol, Sam, Carol, Joe, Corrine, Ashlyn, Allistar, Izzy, Larry, Emerald, Carol, Mike, Garry, Steve, John, Todd, Tad, Andrew, Richard, Ted, and Gary.

I ask this in Jesus Name. Amen.
 
Lord, we thank you that you for the blessings that you have given us. Help us to honor you in every part of our lives. We place this request at your throne. Please hear and reply according to your perfect will and timing. Grant us the peace to know that you are in control. In Jesus Name. Amen.
 
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
