Missing Man: Update

May 14, 2013

I asked for prayer last week for a missing man. With great sadness I must tell you that this young man will not be returning home to his wife and daughter but was instead called to his eternal home. I know I will continue to pray for this family and for their great loss. May they be given much strength and comfort in the days and weeks ahead!


I asked for prayer regarding unemployment claim and new job.

May 02, 2013

Thank you for all your prayers. Thank God my unemployment claim was approved. I have to wait a little longer for the money, but it was approved. Hopefully I will find a good job soon as well. Thank you for your prayers. God bless you all.


Marriage Took an Upswing!

March 11, 2013

The year 2012 was a very difficult one for my family. My husband and I were fighting constantly and I was being emotionally ripped apart by my family's demise playing out before me. In May my husband left, moved out of state, the day he left I posted a prayer request on here asking for prayer for God's will to play out in our marriage, I never believed it was time for it to end. I'm still to this day not sure what happened, but within 2 weeks of my husband leaving he was begging to come home, something involving a dream he had. But, the hard time were not over by any means, it reach a very very bad place around the beginning of November again. Once again, I turned to requesting prayer on here, and my husband went from wanting to leave again, to being willing to seek counseling and work on communicating and the other areas where we were struggling. I'm happy to say that the past few months have not been without disagreements but they have been handled in such a more loving fashion and there is in general a more loving atmosphere in our home. Thanks so much for everyone who contributed their prayers to this situation! Continued prayers of support are welcome!


Entering into His Manifest Presence... HOW HE LOVES US!

January 30, 2013

I have heard clearly from my Lord my entire life. Yet I am a very broken individual, suffering with depression, feelings of loneliness, rejection, pain... I see failure, disappointment, loser... But God sees more. And He has had me in His Plan forever. In more recent years, He has had me writing certain things, eventually for publication to help save souls, but all in His Timing. On that date I mentioned, I was getting ready to write something from Him, something very important. I was singing to Him the entire day and night leading into that. As I readied myself, I suddenly felt sick to my stomach, heard curses and horns, alarms, growls, a full spiritual attack from satan. But then Jesus rescued me! A Light overtook me and everything here faded away. I felt peace, comfort, joy, such LOVE as I have never felt before. Just imagine every good feeling and multiply it by the biggest number ever, and that doesn't even do it justice. I was in my Lord's care for 7 hours. He shared so much. But the part of it that I want to share with you is this: At one point, I was feeling unworthy, reflecting on past sin. He told me that I already asked for forgiveness. But I kept on going back to that. So, at one point, He reminded me of The Cross. And, with pleading and tears, He said to me, "Don't you get it? I DIED for you! I LOVE YOU!!!" It wasn't so much as WHAT He said as HOW HE SAID IT, with TEARS, with PLEADING, with such a depth and feeling, with such passion and understanding and LOVE. I am forever changed by that day. Please do not forget TRULY HOW MUCH HE LOVES YOU!!! God Bless, Mark R., Colorado Springs


recap and what's new

January 25, 2013

Hi i haven't shared a prayer request in 7 months. Although I haven't asked for prayer here I got involved in a non-profit that glorifies God in every way! The pastor is a woman and has been helping people find jobs since 1983 in Denver. She not only helps you find a job but helps you with food, clothing, shelter, volunteer services, and prayer. If you need help just call Susan 720-457-3078. Anyway life is well....I would be lying if I said grand but the truth is life is going better because God has recently made things happen for my life! Back in October I finally came to the point to declare to the Lord, "I am available!" so things started to happen. I still have my fair share of tribulations and temptations but I am pulling through. Thanks for all your prayers as I keep going with my college degree. I have to retake algebra in 7 weeks cuz I failed it last mod and have to pay for it as well with no job. I still need to pay child support even though they took my state license away this past week. :( I have bills mostly medical but still lots of bills stacking up and no money to throw at them. Praise Report!: I am moving out of my mom's house and in with a friend from church who has offered me healing time rent free for 6 months! God is amazingly faithful! Since I declared myself available for God I have formed a team to reach women of all ages who desperately need to know who they are in Christ and to know how to beautify themselves inside and out and prepare themselves for the King of kings as His bride! Thanks again for all your prayers!


How are you?... What if we MEANT that?

January 12, 2013

Someone recently said to me, "How are you?" I said, "fine, how about you?".... "Great, thanks, God bless you"... But God interceded in me, "That is a lie"... And I said those words, as difficult as they were. She came over and we talked and prayed for over an hour, tears flowed, and we were both blessed in that. How often do we say things that are not true? I pray that we find the strength to say "Hurting" or "Struggling" if that is the case... God wants us to LOVE one another. How? Be transparent and vulnerable. You'd be surprised how many people will actually CARE! With LOVE, Mark


Gid's will for a new tenant

January 09, 2013

I recently posted a prayer request to find new tenants. God provided them on Friday. This is the day the house payment was due!!! Yeah Gid! You never change yesterday, today and tomorrow, you stay the same! Thank you prayer warriors!


From job troubles to job success =)

November 06, 2012

I had a prayer posted about a month ago about my job not being what I wanted it to be, I now have a job in an environment that is more what it should be and financially it is so much better! I'm teaching in my own two year old classroom and I have an assistant teacher helping me and we are a good team. Please continue to pray for wisdom on how to handle my class as I am not allowed to talk about God with my kiddos. That will be very hard for me this Christmas and I am praying for sneaky ways to get the birth of Jesus in my classroom =) Thank you to everyone who prayed for me and the person who sent me an encouraging note!! It really does help to know someone else is there and knows what you are going through. God bless to everyone and I pray that God answers your prayers and lifts you up the way he has lifted me up!!


Uncle beat cancer!!

October 27, 2012

I just want to thank all of you for your prayers for my uncle Chris! By the grace of God he beat the cancer and just went through a successful hernia surgery. Thank you again and may God bless you as well!!


Strong Enough

September 20, 2012

I took my 9-year-old son, Jet, to the doctor on Monday because for a week he had not been himself. Each day he seemed worse than the day before. We left the doctor's office with a diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes and had to go straight to the hospital for him to be admitted. It was one of those moments that change your life in a split second. I held it together until my son asked, "How many shots am I going to have to get?" I teared up and said something along the lines of, "I'm just going to be honest with you, sweetheart. This diagnosis will mean several shots a day for you for the rest of your life, but we will tackle this together. Mommy and Daddy are here for you EVERY step of the way. And with God's help, we will do whatever it takes to take care of you and not let this define who you are. We have LOTS of good things to look forward to!" But inside, my heart was crushed. This came on top of an already hectic life due to bringing home our 9-year-old blind daughter adopted from Bulgaria only 4 months ago. Add in another son, my husband trying to both work and finish up his degree, and other health issues in our family recently...WHAT?!? :) God has blown my mind enough times to know that He is in control and He will give us what we need to get through this. If I didn't believe that with everything in me, I would fall apart. We were in the hospital 2 nights as they tried to stabilize Jet. We got released yesterday morning and headed directly to the Barbara Davis Center in Denver for some training on how to manage Jet's diabetes. We had WAY-FM on (as is customary in our car) and Matthew West's song "Strong Enough" came on. Before the words even started, Jet recognized the song and said, "This is the perfect song for me right now." I could barely hold back tears as the song played because the night before at 2am he'd had his first tearful "I wish I didn't have diabetes" moment after a really painful procedure. I just held him and cried and told him I wished the same, but that we just need to keep trusting that God is bigger, has a plan and that He was not surprised by this. His plans for Jet are NOT derailed because of diabetes. Jet is being such a champ and I am so proud to be his mom, and I'm so thankful that I have more time to be with him. My heart physically hurt as I sat up all night in his hospital room thinking about even the possibility of losing him, so I spent my time praising and thanking God for leading us to take him in when we did. I love Jet too much to do less than everything it takes to take care of him. Praying for God's provision for our family in being able to bring God glory in spite of how out of control it all seems to us. God is STRONG ENOUGH!!


Praise Report

July 13, 2012

A few weeks ago I asked for prayer because my in-laws were going to put my 3 young kids, my husband, and myself out on the street if we couldn't pay rent. We went to them and explained we had no money and miraculously they let us stay. Within a week my husband had an offer for a job. It's in another town and we have no transportation of our own so he is making less than minimum wage but getting room and board from his job. We miss each other terribly but this job is enough to pay our bills right now where we're at in this season. The job is supposed to end on October 31st (it's just a seasonal job) but they are already talking about extending his employment! And God changed something in my husband because every other job he's had has made him suicidally depressed but he is actually doing very well with this job! He tells me every evening that he's doing good, he likes his job, and he misses us but he realizes this is what has to be done to provide for his family. Praise God!! Please continue to pray for us as we now have to decide if we are going to stay where we are or try to move the family to where my husband is working. I grew up there and it is a tourist town and so an expensive place to live. We only have about a month to figure out what to do before school starts for the kids and I don't want to change their schools once the year starts (it would be detrimental to my girls who are in a special education program). Thank you for your prayers!


daughter, deliverance, healing, thanks

July 05, 2012

I have asked prayer here for 2 of my daughters...THANK YOU all who have prayed for my daughter and her many diseases- In June I took my daughter to a prayer/deliverance pastor who prayed for her healing, and so many symptoms were healed: visual problems connected to migraines - they are gone (black spots, weird lights, wavy lines in vision). THE MIGRAINES THEMSELVES are gone (they used to happen a few times a week!) A limp that she had because of crooked hips and a shorter leg, disappeared. Much chronic pain left - the whole right side of her body was ALWAYS in pain, but not now! Her digestion is the best it has been in years, and also, no more seizures! My daughter has been bed ridden on and off for almost 11 years. ... she seems to be experiencing increasing well being and healing each day...thank you all who prayed. We are amazed -- and praising the Lord. Please praise the Lord with us...if anyone would pray for her spiritual growth, I will thank you in Heaven...please pray that she becomes a student of the Word with a heart for worship...


Baby Jaxson battling cancer - Passed away this morning

June 30, 2012

Thank you to everyone who has prayed for this amazing little boy. God took away his pain this morning, and he went to live with Heavenly Father. If you can continue to pray for strength and comfort for the family, I know they can use it.


Thank you for your prayers

March 23, 2012

I asked for prayer for a biopsy that my wife went in for, and the results came back fine. Praise God and thank you all for your prayers.


Feeling like a failure

March 15, 2012

A month and a half ago I got into some trouble with my job as a substitue teacher aid and it really had me down. Mainly my subsitute assignments are working with Special Ed kids. I was called by the principal of a school and told that I could no longer sub there. It was especially painful because it was my children's school. I felt like a failure and didn't know if I should keep trying to work with kids or not. I know I have a temper and that somtimes I can get impatient with children. After praying over the situation (and having people like you pray for me) I talked the whole situation over with other teachers in Special Education. These teachers loved having me work with them and had no problem with my work. I decided that one of my big problems was trying to pick up children who would lay down on the floor to avoid work. Because of the society we live in where people love to sue others, one cannot lift a child unless they have had training. More importantly, I decided that I needed to concentrate more on being a humble servant when I am working in schools and tell other teachers whom I work with that I am very teachable. I am open to any imput they would like to give me. So far this has worked well for me. It even happened that another school where I worked last December also wanted to take me off their list of subs. Instead of being devastated, I allowed God to calm my heart and keep going. I don't feel like a failure anymore. I feel the need to walk closer to God every day while I work and quiet myself to hear his voice in me. Thank you for your prayers. Way Fm is a true blessing.


2012=awful

February 29, 2012

Thanks for everyone who prayed for my health. You guys rocked for that. But now we are having more problems. My cat died, I got a cold, and I have to have braces, an expander, and a retainer.. Yay... But I am feeling like myself again and can do anything! :)


child custody

February 29, 2012

God is good! Thanks to everyone who has prayed! Lynn will retain custody of his two girls at present, and false allegations against him were dismissed. Truth prevailed!!! Lynn, his girls and their mother still need prayer to help them survive the impact of divorce.


A semester later, I'm still here

February 20, 2012

Late this summer, I came on this site asking for prayers. I was worried that I would not be able to attend the school I worked hard to get into because I couldn't afford to pay for it. After many challenges, battling depression, and many nights of praying, I was able to figure out how to stay stay two extra semesters at my school. With the help of my friends, my professors, and my school's Chaplin, I was able to figure out how to stay for another year. Throughout all of this, my faith in the Lord has grown. He never let me go through life alone and made sure I had others to guide me. I'd like to thank all of you for your prayers. The Lord listens, I know this! Praise Him!

February 04, 2012

November 09, 2011

I just want to thank everyone who prayed for my mom and our family. Mom made it almost 4 days after being removed from life support.

Answered Prayer, thanks to all

I wanted to say thank you to all who kept my granddaughter's situation in your prayers. We went to court in CA last Thursday. God worked His will. She is not going to Brazil now. I am so grateful that God heard the desire of my heart. Still praying to be the spouse that my husband can see Christ in, but 1 victory at a time is awesome.


See you at the Pole

September 28, 2011

Today at school there were roughly 60 students out of 850 that arrived for See You at the Pole. It was so encouraging to be uplifted in song, prayer, and the Word with fellow believers. :) Praise the Lord for brothers and sisters in Christ in my school.

A prayer was answered because of you

August 25, 2011

I write this with tears in my eyes because I almost thought there wouldn't be a light at the end of that dark tunnel! So I requested back in May for a miracle and you guys have been awesome. So often we forget the gifts god bestows upon us. I was able to get a new job, which was better before and things are looking up to getting our house...thank you all so much!!!! I will continue to keep you all in my prayers.


Marriage Reconciled!

August 23, 2011

Praise God! I wrote several weeks ago about my wife and I being separated, and how she's a runner--running away at the first hint of conflict. On May 3rd, she told me that she wanted a divorce, but thanks to our counselor, and that prayers of many of you here, she told me this morning that she wants me to come home for good. This past Sunday she told me that because of a series of things she'd been hearing from the Lord, she needed to apologize for doubting God, and doubting our marriage. Thank you for all of your prayers--they definitely made a difference.


Leg Surgery

August 18, 2011

My son was only on one crutch for one week and then no crutches at all. He was just released from his surgeon and his workers comp doctor. They expect him to make a full recovery. His pain was minimal and his healing was miraculously quick. Thank you for all your prayers!


Grandma's Accident

August 10, 2011

My grandma was hit by a car while she was out walking her dogs. Though she has months and months of recovery ahead of her she has already forgiven the driver that hit her (she says life is too hard to hold bitterness in your heart), and her recovery so far has already been amazing. She lost her leg above the knee, but she is keeping her spirits up and her pain is now fully under control. Thank you all for your support in prayer. I have a feeling that might have something to do with her remarkable recovery so far.


update on my baby boy Jonah

June 29, 2011

Thank you for praying for us. The appointment went ok on Tuesday. everything is basically the same as last week but we are not losing hope! my husband made a website to update our family and friends on whats going on, its prayforjonah.com. It goes into a little more depth of the appointment and everything that is going on... again thank you so much for putting us out there you have no idea how much this means to us. My heart is breaking everyday for my son and all I want is to be a mom to him. I never thought I wanted kids until I met my husband. Now I cant imagine my life without Jonah! Thank you for your prayers and support!! we will keep you updated as much as we can!! In Christ Jesus, Kelsey, Patrick & Jonah


Leg Surgery

May 31, 2011

My son had his leg surgery last Thursday and it was a wonderful success! He was up and walking the day after his surgery using just one crutch. His pain in minimal and controllable. Thank you so very much for your healing prayers.


Thank you for your prayers

May 24, 2011

Thank you so very much for all the prayers received. Justin goes in for his surgery this Thursday at 7:30am. I will keep everyone posted on his condition and outcome. I'm sure with all the prayers he is receiving, he will be just fine. Thanks again!


My prodigal returned home

May 23, 2011

My foster daughter and I had a parting of the ways over her lifestyle and untruthful ways. It has hurt me deeply as I look at her as my own daughter, not a foster child. I was able to keep track of her on Facebook but that became so upsetting to see what she was involving herself in that I pulled the plug on it so I could no longer keep tabs on her. I did this as I heard the Lord ask me if I could entrust her to Him. I have felt such peace since I did this, but still want to pray for Jerrika, that she feels the love of God and realizes the love me and my family gave to her. We want her back, in an honest relationship devoid of drugs, promiscuity, lies and distrust. I know Jesus has her, I know she has a mustard seed of faith, Holy Spirit, please do your work quickly. Praise you Lord! I placed the above prayer request on Prayer Works around April 30th. I was blessed to have at least one person pray every day, which was a huge comfort to me. Low and behold, Friday night 5-13 late there is a knock at my door and who was it? My prodigal Jerrika. She was broke and at the end of herself, admitting an addiction and wanting help to recover. I just held her in my arms as she cried when she first came in the house. She NEVER cries and has NEVER let me hold her, it was so sweet, even though she was broken, I know it's the beginning of recovery for her. She has followed up and looked into her benefits and we are looking at places she can to for rehab. So please join my in PRAISING GOD for such a quick answer to everyone's prayers. God is SO GOOD, but it still can shock me!! My prayers now turn to finding a suitable rehab and financing for what insurance does not cover. And for recovery the first time (no relapses) and the abundant life Jesus has ahead of her. Prayer Works, THANK YOU!!!


Prayers for my friends 21 month old daughter

May 22, 2011

There is definitely power in prayer. My friend's daughter made it through her recent heart surgery and did regain her movement in her right side. GOD is indeed great and present for all that we do. While we may sometimes forget about Him, He will never forget us. Thank you to all that have taken time to offer prayers.


Jeff

April 28, 2011

Thank you everybody for your prayers. So many came in. Thank God. Jeff was/is a Christian. I have his bible that he kept. He highlighted scriptures. Our family is broke. All of us. He is buried at the cemetery in Buena vista, CO. If it weren't for my wife and i stopping by the dollar store for some plastic flowers, he would have none. in fact we all had to pitch in $88 for the cremation and burial. He has no headstone. imagine that. my sister Cindy makes $35/hour as a dental hygienist and yet his headstone is only $600. i am an engineering student full time. when i graduate i will pay for this.
