Please join me in prayer for Judith. She had a stroke and has limited mobility. She will be moving in with her daughter and their family. It would be such a blessing if Judith was able to move from her bed to her wheelchair. It would be a huge answer to prayer if she could walk again, even with a walker. Please pray especially for her left side. Her sweet family will be so grateful if you joined them in prayer. May God bless Judith with His healing touch, and may He bless each of you for praying for her.

Please pray for Dana's healing.  She has a non-alcohol related liver disease called NASH. While the doctors have a grim prognosis, she's believing in prayer along with diet and exercise. Dana would greatly appreciate your prayer support.  Please join me in covering her with prayer.  May the Lord bless each of you as you faithfully lift her up to our Lord and Savior for healing.

We went to Seattle to the UW. Tests for past two weeks were done to confirm his lungs are not able to give him enough oxygen, they are scarring and he has acid reflux which requires surgery to fix. I didn't know that it could create scarring in his lungs. In order to qualify to have a lung transplant, he first must pass the eltrocardiogram, and see a speach therapist to see if htey can strengthen the muscles in his throat on the right side. If he passes these exams, the doctor will place him on the list to receive a lung transplant. My brother has had a lot happen in his life. At 28 he had his first brain tumor. That left him deaf in his left ear. At 30 he had another brain surgery near the optic nerve. At 37 he had AML leukemia. We were a perfect match and a bone marrow transplant saved his life. At 51 he had his third brain surgery near the his brain stem. That surgery left his left eyelid with palsey that doesn't have the ability to lift his eyelid. My brother never complains. He just wants to live. He loves his family so much. Nurses are always telling us this. He has three sisters we tend to watch him like a hawk. I know this message is long. I just thought this may help someone else to know what our family has gone through, and I wanted to encourage friends that are facing maybe similar situations that God has always answered our prayers and brought him through. God bless you all for your prayers. Stay strong in your walk with God and he will draw close to you. Please pray for my brother to meet these tests and to heal. I am believing for a miracle. I and standing in faith. I feel like crying and sometimes feel rattled, but not over turned. I believe God's hand is on my brother's life, he has given him favor. He will begin taking a medication that will help stop further scarring of the lungs. It comes with side affects that could cause stomach upset. Please pray he is not one of the people with this problem and his body responds well to the medication. Its a $10,000 monthly prescription, we are working with the drug company to get a reduced rate for his needs.

There are other expenses that he is acquiring that make me concerned, please pray for wisdom how I can help him and my mother who lives with him, if they should move closer to the hospital, they have to stay in a hotel with some of these appointments, if he has a transplant its recommended that he lives near the hospital after they release him for follow up appointments.

Please pray join me in prayer for Mary Anne, a dear friend and prayer warrior.  She has prayed for and encouraged many on the Prayer Bank.  Mary Anne has been diagnosed with kidney disease and arthritis.  She has been very ill and is in constant pain.  Thank you so much for praying for her.  

Lord, shine your light on your servant Mary Anne and cause Your healing hand to touch her body.  Cause sickness to flee and your presence to comfort her in every way.  Fight for her and bring restoration to her life. Provide for her everything that she needs and give her the blessings that You have promised to those that serve You.  Enable her to gaze into Your eyes and find the fullness of joy in Your presence.   Lord, she has sought Your kingdom first and fed Your lambs. We ask that all things promised that you bought with Your blood would be provided for her.  Let there be nothing missing and nothing lacking in her life.  Bless Your servant more than she asks or thinks.  In the name of Jesus and according to Your promises we ask. Amen.

Here is a request from Cathrine in Englad. Her sister is sick and in need of prayer ...please pray for Jeanette M., my sister. Tomorrow the 19th December she will be having keyhole surgery to have a disc removed from her spine. She has been in a lot of pain since beginning of October. A large amount of the time could not sit or walk about was in bed all the time. Thank you 

Update today ... Update on my sister. She has an urinary infection, high temp, severe migraine, vomiting and aches all over. Please pray.  Pray that she will be in the hands of God and fight off this infection.  

God Bless 

 (Angie) who is in her early 40's had a virus that attacked her heart this morning and she had a massive heart attack.  She is very critical and it looks bad.  She is top of the list for a heart transplant but the next 12-36 hrs are very important.  She is very special to me and her mom was one that was always in my face and I remember most being bold asking about my relationship with God.  Angie was very fit (buff to no extreme!) and healthy.  This is a complete shock to everyone.  If you have a moment, please take some time to pray for her!  She is an amazing woman with a great heart and very loved. 

Please continue to pray for my brother Sam for healing of his liver. Please also pray for healing in all aspects of his life - spiritual, emotional, financial, relationships. Please pray that he comes to know the Lord. Many thanks and blessings.

My son began college this fall. He has been such a joy in my life. He is a wonderful example of a great child. He began feeling ill. Complaining of a heavy head and lack of concentration. He was put on medication for 4 weeks which didnt help. He then went in for an MRI and they found White specks on the right side of his brain or brain stem. The symptoms are terrible for him and he is afraid he will not do well. He has been referred to A Billings Neurologist. Please pray that he has a complete healing and the problems he has will go away.

Please pray for my friend Mike, on holiday with his family in Portugal, who has been taken very ill. He is anemic, in some considerable pain and has been in hospital for almost a week now.

Pray too for his wife Katherine, as she tries to do what she can for him while also looking after their 4 children, all the while far from home.

Please pray for Donna, she has some kind of lump in her cheek, needs to have an MRI, please pray that it is nothing serious .... Thank You so much

please pray for lara,mother of three for good test results.she is a good mother and her children need her

Please pray for me.    I am having these bad headaches for two weeks.  It's kinda scary.    I can't seem to get medicine to take it away.   Please pray these will stop in Jesus name. 

Please pray for my baby brother, Lance. He just collapsed at Disney on a family vacation. He is now in a Florida hospital doing all the testing. We are in Ct waiting on any news from his wife & we are all so worried. We do know that he has very high liver levels & his lungs are not functioning correctly. He also has an enlarged underarm Lymph Node. This all came out of nowhere! He seemed fine & then all of a sudden, he collapsed.  Thank you so much for any prayers!

The nurses were ready to take him to have the scope procedure, when he passed another bm that was dark, and his blood count is low.  So once they complete the transfusion, they will move forward with the scope, and if they locate an opening where the bleeding is, they will cauterize it.

As I was speaking to the nurse, I told the Lord that, if it time to take my Father, take him now!

If it is not my Father's time to be taken to be with My Sweet Father God, may my Father be completely healed!  

And I Claim This Now, In The Name Of Our Sweet Savior, Jesus Christ!  

AMEN!!!
