Problem:
This is the second time I have put this prayer request on your site! Why do I have to put it on twice/ I read the prayer needs daily and do not find the one I wrote! It was sent to you the day after Christmas Please be in agreement with me that those who are in need of jobs will find one soon! Many of us have no income and that is not a good situation! Businesses are not hiring and many of us have the credentials! Favor with unemployment; an appeal hearing soon for me!!
Prayer Request:
I am praying for jobs for many of us that are out of work! We have the credentials in Social Work, Counseling and Nursing but no one is hiring! Lord we pray You will intervene; we are asking for a good hourly wage with benefits, favor with the Inteviewer and they will notice our applications in big bold letters! I know that there is nothing impossible for You Father! Waiting and expecting IN Jesus Name! Favor with judge when I have a healring on my appeal for unemployment! First time of ever receiving umemployment and my nursing company lied about absenteeism! I was never late and went above the call of duty! The client I worked for was always late to her job; which she worked for the same company and the times she missed or was late she probably blamed me for her being late! Lord thank You for showing me I needed a history on my bank statement! It shows the checks that were deposited into my checking account; the only proof I had! The right words will be directed from My Father to give out during the hearing session!! Praise be to My God! I love and adore you

Problem:
A. The ministry I have been in for the past 6.5 years is in it's dying stages-I have no more heart for the work, but my pastor has resisted allowing me to leave or even to take a needed sabbatical rest. With the downturn in the economy I need the income from this part time ministry, but that is not a good reason to stay on. B. I've talked to my pastor twice and asked trusted friends and family to pray with me. C. The need for more prayer support in finding God's will-my most important concern. God has not spoken to me yet.
Prayer Request:
Divine direction and permission to leave the ministry peacefully, if this be His will. Also, I need to replace the income with about $400 per month in some type part time work, which will not interfere with family or worship.

Prayerline response:
Lord, You have promised wisdom if we ask so we ask You to give him wisdom, discernment and understanding of Your plan for his life. The direction You have for him to go. We ask for Your peace as he seeks You in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

Problem:
I am in a very scary situation. My husband and I were victims from Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana during Summer 05. We were generously blessed with all the money we could need to rebuild our lives. We foolishly squandered and wasted it away on luxurious purchases, my husband stopped working to rebuild our house, and I have sunk into a pit of deep depression and anger. I now have isolated myself from wanting to see my husband's family again because they always criticized him, and now we would be totally rediculed if I show my face to tell the that our house never got rebuilt, and we don't have a place to live in like planned. I feel totally foolish for this happening. Worse of all I destroyed my husband's chance to have a better career of real estate since I foolishly spent it all.
Prayer Request:
Please pray that God directs both of our steps from here, and gives us the courage and confidence we need to both get a job. Mainly I need prayer for serious depression and anger issues. I have had multiple relationship issues with other family and in-law members within our family, and feel like I can't rebuild our relationship back since so much has happened that we can't explain to any of our family members to better the situation. I feel like my only recourse is to run away from everyone. Please also pray that God helps us both to get new vehicles so we won't have to pray for a miracle each day just to travel without the fear of breaking down. Please also pray that this trailer that my neighbor is letting us to take over her notes for to live in, that this works out for us if it's God's will, and that he will help us get a nicer house later on down the road. We just need a breath of fresh air in our lives more than ever. God bless you for this ministry and for your prayers.

Prayerline response:
1 John 1:9 (NIV) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness to forgive us and deliver us and cleanse us from our sins. We thank You we can repent and turn from our way and return to You and You will deliver us from the bondage we have put ourselves into. Father, we ask for miracles we ask You to intervene in this situation and turn it around bring them into a close relationship with You in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

Problem:
I am full of axniety and fear concerning my 21 year old son Aaron. He started a new job last night and was not prepared to do so. He had not slept much for a couple of days. I am concerned for him. There was some confusion about when he was supposed to start his job due to the boss being out of town. They scheduled him, but no one told him what his first day was. He misssed the first day because of it.
Prayer Request:
Pray for me, the mom to not be so fullof axiety and worry and that I will again become a women of faith and substance. Pray for God's will for my son, Aaron.

We pray for you to know the power and authority you have in the Mighty Name of Jesus, if you are a child of God. Ephesians 1:15-22, Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give to you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, what are the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power which He worked in Christ when He raised Him from the dead and seated Him at the right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principality and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. And He put all things under His feet, and gave Him to be head over all things to the church, which is His body, the fullness of Him who fills all in all. **In Jesus Mighty Name we bind the lies and deception of the devil in Your life and command you to be loosed. We bind your mind to the mind of Christ and your will and emotions to the Lord. We plead the Blood of Jesus that is more than enough to turn this around. Father, we thank You that You have given us power over the devil and his demons, we thank You that no weapon formed against us can prosper when we put Your Word to work in our lives. Thank You Father in Jesus Mighty Name, Amen.

Problem:
I need prayer to overcome my addiction to tobacco/smoking. I have been praying and using Nicotine patches. God put the thought of finding a prayer line into my heart this morning.
Prayer Request:
That I will stop smoking.

Prayerline response:
Romans 7:14 for we know that the law is spiritual, but I am carnal, sold under sin. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do. If then, I do what I will not to do, I agree with the law that it is good. But now, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh) nothing good dwells; for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find. For the good that I will to do, I do not do; but the evil I will not to do, that I practice. Now if I do what I will not to do, it is no longer I who do it, but sin that dwells in me. I find then a law, that evil is present with me, the one who wills to do good. For I delight in the law of God according to the inward man. But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members. O wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord! In Jesus we can have freedom from sin, all bondage of the devil. In Jesus we can live the life God Almighty intended us to live. Father, we plead the blood of Jesus in Jesus mighty name and ask for deliverance once and for all time to live for You. Amen.

"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled." (NKJ)

Prayerline response:
John 4:46-52 46 So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum. 47 When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to Him and implored Him to come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death. 48 Then Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will by no means believe.” Believing before you see, feel or touch it is faith. 49 The nobleman said to Him, “Sir, come down before my child dies!” 50 Jesus said to him, “Go your way; your son lives.” So the man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way. 51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying, “Your son lives!” 52 Then he inquired of them the hour when he got better. And they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.” 53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” The father, believed Jesus when He said his son was healed and went his way, his son was healed because he believed. We are healed because we believe not because we beg God to heal or pray over and over for healing. We are healed because we believe the Word of God and act on it. Lord, we thank You that healing belongs to us we thank You that You have healed us and made us whole. Lord, help them receive healing today in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

Problem:
I'm having a siege of witch craft bothering me, and hounding me. I can barely breath, and this is very serious. Father, Please bless this prayer warrior, mentally, physically, spiritually, emotionally, and financially. Please allow this person who is praying for me all the blessings they pray for me, 10 fold.
Prayer Request:
my health

Prayerline response:
Ephesians 1:11-14 (NCV) In Christ we were chosen to be God's people, because from the very beginning God had decided this in keeping with his plan. And he is the One who makes everything agree with what he decides and wants. We are the first people who hoped in Christ, and we were chosen so that we would bring praise to God's glory. So it is with you. When you heard the true teaching—the Good News about your salvation—you believed in Christ. And in Christ, God put his special mark of ownership on you by giving you the Holy Spirit that he had promised. That Holy Spirit is the guarantee that we will receive what God promised for his people until God gives full freedom to those who are his—to bring praise to God's glory. When we make Jesus Lord of our lives His Spirit comes to live in us. Having Christ in us gives us power and authority over the enemy. Luke 10:19 behold I have given you power and authority over snakes and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy and nothing will by any means harm you. Jesus defeated Satan and took away his power to harm us, witchcraft cannot harm us unless we let it. We stand before the enemy with the power of God in us. The enemy must flee from us. James 4:7 (NKJV) therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Father, give them revelation of their authority over the enemy to be free and stay free in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled." (NKJ)
2 Cor 10:3-6

"Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you." (NKJ)

Problem:
There is nothing I can do but pray, and get others to pray. They laid hands on me at my church (I stood in for the baby, she lives in Phila. Pa. I live in WV) I believe in God and the power of prayer in numbers. If we all pray in one accord, the Lord will make it so.
Prayer Request:
Please pray for my niece! cierra lynn. Could you please send this name out to everyone you know who will pray for her? It is the name of the little girl laying in critical care in a children's hospital in Phila. She is my little sister's(kinda) baby girl. She is 5 years old. A beautiful little girl who may die due to an allergic reaction to antibiotics prescribed for a sore throat! The reaction went undetected by the Dr's and they mistakenly prescribed more. Now her little body may be shutting down! Please, please pray for her and her mother Gloria. That God will give her the strength and faith to get through this and put it in His hands! Thank you. I love you all! Kelly

Prayerline response:
Dear Heavenly Father we plead the blood of Jesus over Cierra Lynn and command healing, restoration in her body. We command this allergic reaction to leave her body now in Jesus mighty name. Father, thank You for total healing in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

Please pray for my mom, Joan, who is having recurring seizures and is recovering from surgery. Pray for God to either heal her or take her home, based on what He thinks is best. She is 82 and a believer. Pray for her spirit to be strong. Thanks, so much.

Prayerline response:
James 5:14-15 is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven. Faith believes when you pray God is going to do it. Matthew 9:20 according to your faith be it unto you. Matthew 15:28 O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. Matthew 21:21 verily I say unto you, lf ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, be thou removed…it shall be done. Hebrews 11:1 now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:6 but without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that He is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him. Mark 9:22-23 and often he has thrown him both into the fire and into the water to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us. Jesus said to him, if you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. God’s Word is His will. When we come to Him in prayer we are to come knowing His will and asking according to His will knowing He will answer according to His will His Word. We know healing is God’s will through His Word. Psalm 103:3, who forgives all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases. 1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore are sins in his own body on the tree, that we being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. God does not choose to heal some and not others. God’s word declares to us His will and way. When we come to him in faith, believing His Word He will do it. Father, thank You that You hear the prayer of faith and answer it. Lord, we ask in faith for healing today. Amen.

"Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: who forgives all your iniquities, who heals all your diseases, who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's."

Harrassment at work
Prayer Request:
I keep getting harrassed at work by various people who are into power trips and game playing. I suspect a drug or alcohol issue and possibly employee theft. There is a sports betting ring going on as well which causes these employees to mistreat those not involved. Others have sexual issues and if Christ's name is even mentioned they have a cow. I have worked here for 10 years just minding my own business and trying to improve myself and save for the future. Please pray that the situation may improve. These people don't seem to be happy unless they make others suffer. It is difficult to think of them as human anymore.

Prayerline response:
Psalm 55:1-14, 16-19, Give ear to my prayer, O God, and do not hide Yourself from my supplication. Attend to me, and hear me; I am restless in my complaint, and moan noisily, because of the voice of the enemy. Because of the oppression of the wicked; for they bring down trouble upon me, and in wrath they hate me. My heart is severely pained within me, and the terrors of death have fallen upon me, and horror has overwhelmed me. So I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest. In deed, I would wander far off, and remain in the wilderness. I would hasten my escape from the windy storm and tempest.” Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues, for I have seen violence and strife in the city. Day and night they go around it on its walls; in iniquity and trouble also in the midst of it. Destruction is in its midst; oppression and deceit do not depart from its streets. For it is not an enemy who reproaches me; then I could bear it. Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me; Then I could hide from him. But it was you, a man my equal, my companion and my acquaintance. We took sweet counsel together, and walked to the house of God in the throng. As for me, I will call upon God and the Lord shall save me. Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, and He shall hear my voice. He has redeemed my soul in peace from the battle that was against me, for there were many against me. God will hear, and afflict them, even He who abides from of old. Lord, we thank You that we can call on You at any time to meet any need. Thank You for defending Your people and bringing victory in the work place in Jesus. Amen. Proverbs 16:7 He makes even his enemies to be at peace with him.

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

"For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses."

Jeremiah 1:12 then the Lord said to me, you have seen well, for I am ready to perform My Word. Lord, Your Word says in 1 Peter 2:24 who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might life for righteousness - by whose stripes you were healed. Lord, we know that Jesus bore every sickness for us at Calvary. But we also know that Satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. Ephesians 6:12, for we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Cancer is of the devil. 2 Corinthians 10:4-5 says for the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ. Hebrews 4:12 says, for the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. Father, thank You for Your Word to cause cancer to leave and restoration and healing to come today in Jesus Christ mighty name, Amen

"He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions."

MY FAITH AND MY FAMILY

Prayerline response:
God has given us faith. We grow that faith as we hear the Word, read the Word and speak the Word of God. Romans 12:3 (NIV) For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you. As we seek God and His kingdom all things are added unto us. Matthew 6:33 seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things will be added unto you. John 15:7-8 (New International Version) If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples. When we bare fruit for God others are drawn to Him, they see and want what He has done for us. To bare fruit for God we must abide in Him and His Word abide in us. Father, we thank You that Your Word says in Matthew 11:5 they blind receive their sight. Father, we ask for restoration, healing of her vision today. We ask You to reveal Yourself to her in Your healing power to be a witness to her family in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

"My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh."

I am so upset and I no I was wrong for what I did and I know with your prayers and believing God for healing this will go away. I have just got medicine for it and the doctors says most of the time it is gone after the treatment, but we have got to get my immune system up. I have been really down and upset with myself, but I know it istn't the end of the world and with your prayers I will be happier. I have been a christian for twenty years and I love watching your minisry on television. Lately, I have been so caught up in school, work, and raising my children,as a single mom,that I have not have had the time to watch your program. Your show came ontoday and I watched a brief message and said to myself I have to contact them for prayer. I thank you for everything you guys do. Your are truly a blesssing from God. Thank you so much and Merry Christmas.

1 John 1:9 (NIV) If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. Father, we thank You for loving us so much that You forgive us when we repent and cleanse us of the sin. Psalm 86:5 "For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee." In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth we demand this std to cease to exist in her body and never return. Father, thank You for Your Word to bring life and healing in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

Problem:
I heard about the prayer line from watching The Harvest Show. My family and I are not fully enjoying family life because of my sister Yolanda. She has lost her job 2 years ago and she has been very angry and takes it out on all of us. Worse of all she stopped going to any church and it's clear to us that she gave up on God and expects us to pay her bills and she is a able body person.
Prayer Request:
Pray that my sister Yolanda will go find a church home of her choice and that God will strengthen and mature her walk in Him and that she will find a good job.

Prayerline response:
Lord, we thank You that You are longsuffering toward us and desire all should come to repentance and be saved, 2 Peter 3:9. Lord, Satan is a liar and deceiver trying to keep the lost from hearing and receiving the gospel of Your Son Christ Jesus we break the power of Satan in Yolanda. Matthew 18:18 assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. We bind Satan his assignments and activities in her life. We thank You she is now free to hear the gospel of our Savior Christ Jesus. We ask You to send forth the laborer’s she will listen to and receive salvation from. Father we ask you to fill her with Your understanding and wisdom of the things of You. Lord we thank you for drawing her to You and bringing her to salvation through Your Son Christ Jesus today. Amen

"For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved."
Romans 10:13

". . .Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house."
Acts 16:31

Problem:
Fear. In my minds eye I can see a conquering army in our land. We are being led down a socialist government. Our fate for this country is slavery. What appears to be a good thing will turn on us and cause great harm. People will be sent to a great concentration camp far north. I wish I could shake this off but It is very overwhelming. I pray for God's intervention though I don't think we deserve it.
Prayer Request:
our country to repent. I desire peace in the place of my great turmoil

Prayerline response:
There is a song that says turn Your eyes on Jesus look full in His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow strongly dim in the light of His glory and grace. It is also written in 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land. All God’s promises are still available to His people. Numbers 13:17-20 Numbers 13:17 (New International Version) 17 When Moses sent them to explore Canaan, he said, "Go up through the Negev and on into the hill country. Numbers 13:27-33 (New International Version) 27 They gave Moses this account: "We went into the land to which you sent us, and it does flow with milk and honey! Here is its fruit. 28 But the people who live there are powerful and the cities are fortified and very large. We even saw descendants of Anak there. 29 The Amalekites live in the Negev; the Hittites, Jebusites and Amorites live in the hill country; and the Canaanites live near the sea and along the Jordan." 30 Then Caleb silenced the people before Moses and said, "We should go up and take possession of the land, for we can certainly do it." 31 But the men who had gone up with him said, "We can't attack those people; they are stronger than we are." 32 And they spread among the Israelites a bad report about the land they had explored. They said, "The land we explored devours those living in it. All the people we saw there are of great size. 33 We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them." The children of Israel did not enter the promise land because of unbelief, thinking the enemy was more powerful than the promises of God. God has never intervened in our behalf because we deserve it. It has always been because of what Jesus did for us at Calvary. It is because of His grace, mercy and favor. Fear comes from the devil to paralyze people to keep them from prayer to keep them from the promises of God. The Israelites could have entered the Promised Land but chose to fear instead. The same applies today do we have faith in God’s Word in His promises do we go and possess the land or fear the enemy. Lord, open their spiritual eyes and ears to see and hear the truth of Your Word, give them revelation of who You are and who they are in You. God is greater than anyone or anything. We should go to God in praise, worship and prayer trusting Him to do what He has promised. God’s promises are not based on the world’s economy or who is in government authority. God’s promise are Himself, they are greater. Jesus was manifested to destroy the works of the devil and we are to do the same. We do this by abiding in Him and His Word abiding in us, John 15:7-8, Matthew 6:33. Get in God’s Word, seek Him with all your heart, and speak His Word in every situation. Pray for the purpose of accomplishing God’s will on this earth.

"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."
Romans 10:17

"Now faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]." The Amplified Bible
Heb. 11:1

"For in this hope we were saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently." (NIV)
Rom 8:24-25

Pleasehelp me pray for charlie to be healed of cancer. Another co-workers wife (Sue) has a chance of having breast cancer. Please help me pray that she gets healed of anything that may cause or turn into breast cancer. I pray everyday for them My brother went to World Harvest Bible College
Prayer Request:
That charlie will be healed of cancer. That Sue doesn't have breast cancer or anything that may cause it.

Prayerline response:
Deuteronomy 28:7 the Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways. Cancer is an enemy. But cancer is a defeated enemy. 1 Peter 2:24 Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed. Jesus defeated cancer, He bore it in His own body for us that we would have authority over it. Luke 10:19 behold I have given you power and authority over snakes and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy (cancer) and nothing shall be any means harm you. Lord we thank You that this cancer must bow to the name of Jesus and go. James 4:7 submit to God, resist the devil (cancer) and he will flee from you. Thank You Jesus, Amen.

"My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh."
Proverbs 4:20-22

"He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions."
Psalm 107:20

Problem:
I WAS in therapy AND medication for Social Anxiety/Depression. >>My husband Todd, has adult ADD....and someimes I BELIEVE possibly Bi-Polar. --Two years ago....Todd HAD an EXCELLENT paying job, but decided he HAD to have his own business.........NEITHER ONE of us has a Business background, and I had GREAT MISGIVINGS about this--(which I DID share with Todd, to no avail!!) I started to go to counseling FOR MYSELF, to try to overcome my (mentally) paralyzing issue of Social Anxiety.--HOWEVER, due to all the MANY ups/downs with the business (which my husband RECRUITED me into) my Psychology sessions [unfortunately] were more of how to DEAL with my husband & his many moods, INSTEAD OF GETTING ME TO MY GOAL OF: fearing LESS, being able to lead an INDEPENDENT life (if need be). Long story short, Todd lost interest in the business after only 13 months, quit & left me to "collect" from our customers. He went on to acquire a job quickly through a friend.---- I find myself feeling (once again) DISPLACED, Depressed, and VERY ANXIOUS & sometimes have PANIC attacks (I've been without insurance 5 months, so I've NOT been to counseling....which I need more NOW than ever!! I'm able to afford the Generic anti-anxiety prescribed to me, BUT IT'S NO HELP FOR THE DEPRESSION, AND MY HUSBAND.....BEING THE NARCISSISTIC PERSON HE IS HAS ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA THAT HIS ERRATIC DECISIONS HAVE AN EFFECT ON ME MENTALLY!!--Please PRAY that GOD would calm my soul....my mind feels like it's going in 5 directions @ once!! My husband's job is paying about 1/3 LESS than he initially led me to believe, and now we are in a financial spot we've never encountered before. My "collections" from the business we were in are going nowhere because our customers (as many) are in the same situation we are. I wanted to RE-finance MONTHS ago, BEFORE it would get to this point, but my husband DIDN't want to. (He USUALLY does NOT respect or LISTEN to my ideas, even though he TELLS me I'm "smart" & that he "respects" me......his ACTION show a VERY DIFFERENT tale!) PLEASE PRAY THAT WE CAN RESOLVE OUR FINANCIAL PROBLEMS TOGETHER, CALMLY, and also.....PLEASE PRAY THAT GOD WOULD LEAD ME FROM THIS DEPRESSIVE, NON-MOTIVATED STATE, TO JUST FEEL AS THOUGH I'M "NORMAL". EVERY DAY, AS I SAID IS TRULY, TRULY A STRUGGLE FOR ME MENTALLY, AND IT'S ETREMEMLY DIFFICULT TO JUST GET THROUGH EACH DAY. I'M SO TIRED OF MERELY "EXISTING"!! I KNOW God has a BETTER plan for me than THIS......THAT's the ONLY thing that keeps me going. (Yes, I HAVE felt suicidal at times, but as I said, I just HAVE to BELIEVE that God brought me here for a REASON......not merely to exist like this.) I just need God to REVEAL his plan for me, and GIVE ME STRENGTH & COURAGE!! God Bless you !!! --Debra
Prayer Request:
Specifically??......BOTH my husband Todd AND myself need to hear from God on WHAT he would have us do REGARDING OUR FINANCES at this time. (We are facing possible bankrupty as a LAST resort now, as we've exhausted ALL OTHER possibilities........my husband keeps WAVERING on what to do.----In the past I'VE been the one to : Look for the house; mortgage; handle the bills, etc.. But THIS time, I TRULY NEED Todd to be the "MAN" and solve this problem! I'm BOTH mentally AND physically EXHAUSTED from lack of sleep over this!! When Todd is "settled" I find it MUCH easier to concentrate on what I CAN & NEED to do.----I myself NEED PRAYER FOR HEALING OF MY MIND, SO THAT EVERYDAY IS NOT A PERSONAL STRUGGLE.......I've NOT been able to hold a job for QUITE sometime becuase of my panicy/depressed state......I JUST WANT TO BE MADE WHOLE and lead a "normal" life (with, or without my husband........I CRAVE to be INDEPENDENT, so if anything happens to our marriage (whether is be death or divorce) I WANT TO BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF MYSELF WITHOUT FEAR!!! God Bless YOU for you prayers!!!!

Prayerline response:
Proverbs 12:25 anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, but a good word makes it glad. Psalm 9:9-10 the Lord also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And those who know Your name will put their trust in You; for You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You. Lord, this friend needs to know Your Name, who You are and what You will do for them. Anxiety comes from lack of understanding that You have set them free and You will do what You say You will do. Lord, make Your Word so clear, understandable to them, make Your Word stand out against the problems they are facing. Make Your Word more important, understandable, clear, and bigger than the problems. Lord, make Your Word bigger than Satan’s lies and deceptions. Cause them to resist Satan and every evil spirit with the Word of God and the Name of Jesus. Cause them to resist fear, anger, discouragement, self-pity, bitterness and depression with the Name of Jesus and Your Word. Show them they have power over the enemy if they have made Jesus Lord of their life. Show them they are redeemed from the curse of the law. Galatians 3:13 Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree) that the blessing of Abraham might come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. Psalm 42:5, 11 why are you cast down O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him for the help of His countenance. Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God. Father, You are our hope. You know how Satan tries to deceive us by telling us we are separated from you and You cannot help us. But Jesus paid the penalty for our sins and brought us into right relationship with You and His blood was more than enough to bring us into covenant relationship with You and redeemed from every curse even generational curses. Amen. Isaiah 54:14-17 In righteousness you shall be established; you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear; and from terror, for it shall not come near you. Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me. Whoever assembles against you shall fall for your sake. Behold, I have created the blacksmith who blows the coals in the fire. Who brings forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the spoiler to destroy. No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgment you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me, says the Lord. Amen

"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled."

Problem:
for the last three months I have been compleatly overtaken by demonic sprits. These sprits wait for me to go to sleep and then posses my body during the possession I am being made to do unspeakable sexual acts and sexual activity of the most bizar natuer. when i wake up i am compleatly unaware of what transpired during the night but after a while the memory comes back in bits and pieces and I can put it togeather somewhat. I am at a compleat loss as to how to combat these sprits as they apparentsly do not listen to my envoking The name of Jesus christ to demand them depart from my presense. I have a rock solid faith in christ Jesus but I cannot understand why my absolute faith will not have any affect on them. I am pleading with anyone one who can help me in this matter as I do not think I will last much longer under their constant power. I have asked forgiveness of my sins and seek the power of prayer to assist me in this matter. I am desperat for at this very moment they are waiting for me to go to sleep so they can posses me
Prayer Request:
I need deliverance from demonic posseson and demonic sprits in my house.

Prayerline response:
Ephesians 6:16 Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD. Isaiah 59:19 So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. We are secure in Jesus. He that is in me is greater than he that is in the world coming against me. Galatians 3:13 Christ hath redeemed us from the curse, being made a curse for us that the blessings of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ. Romans 8:15-16 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoptions, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him. James 4:7 submit to God resist the devil and he will flee from you. We must accept what Jesus did for us and the authority He has given us over the enemy. Satan will flee from us when we stand on the word of God. Lord, give them knowledge of Your presence in their life, knowledge of who they are in You and who You are in them. Thank You Father in Jesus mighty name, Amen. Mark 16:17 and these signs shall follow them that believe; in My name shall they cast out devils. A person has power and authority over Satan, demons and devils the moment they become surrendered to Jesus and make Him Lord of their lives. You can even cast a demon out of yourself if you believe and know Jesus personally. If you do not then you need to find a born again believer who can help you. Matthew 10:1 and when he has called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease. Amen

"For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ, and being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is fulfilled." (NKJ)
