Wife having a baby
Submitted By: Stephen Taylor
My wife is pregnant with our 4th child and when she went to the doctor's office she did have great news. Because my wife had complication with our last child and the extent of the complications, she said to have this baby may kill her, in spite of that fact the doctor told us we would be able to have more children after her last delivery even though there were risks. So this Friday, Sept. 8, we go see the high risk doctor, we are praying for a good report. Also I ask that you would keep us prayer through the duration of the pregnancy, she is about 14 weeks right now Lastly, would you pray that the LORD would bless me full time employment so that I may take care of my wife and four kids.09-12-2011

Church Trouble
Submitted By: Rick
There is a matter of importance and possibly urgency I need prayer about. The deacon I have mentioned before, that had been opposing and undermining me, caused some real problems tonight at the deacons meeting. He is no longer a deacon and should not have even been at the meeting. It was obvious from his attitude that he came there to straighten out the problem of the church, which he saw as me. He dominated the meeting with negativity and anger. At one time, I thought he was going to fight. It's obvious that he is trying to get me out. He has been for two years now. So far the Lord has stopped his efforts. Even exposing his lies to others in the congregation. This man has opposed every preacher that has been here. Even though terrible things have happened to him within a week of doing so, he still continues. He does not learn that he is not opposing man, but God. I don't know how many times, as he did tonight, that he has told me how to run the church and ordered me not to preach over 35 min. This is wearing my wife and I out. If we get ran off, I not only loose my job, but we loose our place to live. We have been protected, I believe, because God has answered the prayers of those who have prayed. Please continue to lift us up, and that God will bring this man to repentance. Pastor Rick Summerdale Alabama09-16-2011

Blair
Submitted By: Blair
Please pray for a healing of my brain as I have had permanent damage done to it. I see life as pretty much hopeless as I have had about a 60-80% loss of both short term and long term memory as well as brain functioning. I have also experienced about a 90-95% reduction in my ability to feel emotions. I have not experienced ANY positive emotions for over 21 months. Please pray for wisdom for my doctors. I have an MRI on my brain on March 11, and a follow-up with my Neurologist. I cannot live this way for the rest of my life!!! Thank you, Blair P.S.- I also need prayer to find an attorney03-11-2009

Pastor's Wife (Not Luz)
Submitted By: Anonymous
I am an elder in a reformed church. Since ordination, my wife has grown in her opposition to this role. Among other things, I will not share confidential information with her, and she becomes quite angry over it. Our sons (9 & 13) are in constant emotional turmoil. Cutting to the chase, we're close to separation. I can see God bringing about an awesome deliverance, but we need so much help. We need Jesus to reign over our marriage, and the Holy Spirit to illuminate our vision so we can see our own faults (we see to have the whole seeing-the-speck-in-the-other-person's-eye thing down pat.). I want to give glory to God for His deliverance. I pray that I am able to do so....soon. 10-08-2007

Please consider copying this request and praying for us monthly during the coming year. Please pray for the ministry of Greenwood Church in the following areas: 1. Pastor: That I would be diligent in Holiness, Prayer, Study, Visitation, and Soul winning. That the protection of God would be on myself and family. 2. Leadership: That the leadership would be an example in Bible study, Prayer, Giving and Attendance. 3. Congregation: That lost religious people would be awakened and saved, and the saved would grow in their desire for the Word, and become more involved. 4. Youth: That God would get hold of the few that we do have, who are running from God, and only come for the fun events. That God will bring in others that will fall in love with Jesus. 5. Prospects: That God will bring us workers that are grounded in the Word of God. 6. Outreach: That we would go out with the message of the gospel, and God will give us many souls. That God would bring the lost in as well. As of yet, we have had no one saved in three years. That God would bless and increase our Radio Ministry, and enable us to do Internet Ministy on Sermon Audio. 7. Missions: God has given us the opportunity to support a missionary to Russia.

Joining the Army
Submitted By: Seth
I'm joining the US Army. Tomorrow I'll start talking to the recruiter about jobs, and soon after that I'll be signing a contract for a job, and writing my top 3 choices for deployment. Please pray for wisdom, guidance with that. Pray that God will guide both me and the recruiter in discussing jobs and choosing the right one. Pray that if possible, if it's wise, I'll be able to get a quick-ship job, and get deployed very soon (with the way things are, I might get better options that way). Pray for the right doors to open, and the right jobs to be available. Pray that everywhere I send this prayer request God will draw a lot of powerful prayer warriors to pray fervently, with faith for this, as God leads.03-16-2011
