Prayer Line Schedule: Updates Are Posted Here

A few weeks ago, I asked you all to pray for my father who is going in for surgery/procedure. I want to report that God showed up and showed out! My father's blood pressure before the procedure was in the normal range (the doctors said it would "NEVER" be normal but the best we could hope for would be for it to be stabilized). The procedure went perfectly-and one of the ushers I work with at my church was one of the nurses-she checked on him frequently even though he wasn't her patient. GOD is good!!

Hello Ladies,

I would to request prayer for Ms. Dorothy, she is seeking employment in the area of education or as an education researcher. Ms. Dorothy has a PhD and when she goes on interviews she is being told she does not have enough experience. Let's stand in agreement that Ms. Dorothy gets a full-time with benefits in her career area of education.

Thanks in advance,
Maria

Please pray for minister Thomas and his congregation; he lost his wife to cancer yesterday, and she left behind four children, including little Sarai and Abram. May God comfort their congregation, as we all know it is HE who is in control.

Praise God... Please give Dad a great big hug from all of us...

Last week I asked that you all pray for me and my health. My bloodwork came back showing that my potassium level was high. Well, the repeat bloodwork showed that all is well. My potassium level was within range. I praise God that all is well. The nurse told me that 99% of the time high potassium is an error due to the way the blood sample was handled. Still, I couldn't help but worry and webmd and google are of no help for someone who worries the way that I do. Thank you so much for your prayers.

Tonight's Scripture....

Tighten Your Reigns with this...

As you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so continue to live in him. Keep your roots deep in him and have your lives built on him. Be strong in the faith, just as you were taught, and always be thankful. Colossians 2:6-7 NCV

As you received Christ Jesus the Lord....

so continue to live in him.....



As you received Christ Jesus the Lord....

so continue to live in him.....


As you received Christ Jesus the Lord....

so continue to live in him.....


In the same manner you received the Lord Jesus Christ into your heart and into your life...

RECEIVE HIS PROMISES as you have believed and received Him into your heart. God's promises come with Him and with Him come His promises.

Okay, that may sound like echo, but meditate on this until it 'opens' up in your heart. God is with you all the way, not part of the way but all of the way.

Therefore...

As you received Christ Jesus the Lord....so continue to live in him... receive His Word, His promises to and for you .................... 'all the way.' There's never a 'disconnect' between you and the Lord and the Love that He has for you...

From Health&hair28

Revelation 3:13-22

13 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.

Welcome Back Health&hair28 and TraciChanel

We thank God for you and each of our sisters who come to the Prayer Line as well as all of our sisters here in this forum with as Laela says "For Him" for this forum is 'For Him'... Jesus Our Lord and Saviour.

God is faithful in His love for all of us; please don't give up.

Continue to move in faith. Step out onto the waters, you will not fall; if the floor or the ground seems weak beneath you, keep moving forward, you will not fall. God has you and He is going to SURELY see you through. You will not fall and you will not fail. Keep stepping forward in your faith, moving towards the other side. You will not fall.

Ummmmmm, I have scripture to prove it...

To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you before his glorious presence without fault and with great joy----- Jude 1:24

Guess what else? Jehovah Shammah, the God who goes before you... is already there... So... 'Step out'.... Come on, don't be afraid. Step out on your faith and go towards the mark of your Desire, which God has given you.

Look what God says:

Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the LORD thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will NOT FAIL thee, nor forsake thee
.
And the LORD, He it is that doth go before thee; He will be with thee, He will NOT FAIL thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.

------ Deuteronomy 31:6-8

Step out... be it upon land or sea or air... step out, for God is already there, waiting just for you.

You will not fail.

Sweet Sleep Precious Lambs

Definitely, we praise God for healing Georgina and providing for all of her needs in Jesus' Name.

And we praise God for His divine order and peace to surround you not only on your job but everywhere you are... you shall be covered and protected and highly favoured, in Jesus' Name. Amen and Amen.

Can't wait to join the call tonight-it was so nice to hear your voices last week!

Two prayer requests: first, praying that my father will receive the money he needs to stay in his home (owes back property taxes due to illness).

Second, I am dealing with frustrations at work and becoming restless. I am also not enjoying my work as much as I used to. I pray for peace, grace, and direction/instruction.

Hi Sashaa... God's provision shall definitely be seen for your Dad and in extra places where you and he have not asked, yet you will reap the blessings held in store for you.

You shall have peace no matter what is going on around you. You shall have the peace of God that no one can steal from you. At work, at home, in your social life, in Church, God has ordained peace for you. In Full and in Jesus' Name... Amen and Amen.

Tonight's Scriptures...

Hebrews Chapter 4 ...

"God's Rest"

God’s promise that we may enter his place of rest still stands. We are afraid that some of you think you won’t enter his place of rest. We have heard the same Good News that your ancestors heard. But the message didn’t help those who heard it in the past because they didn’t believe.

We who believe are entering that place of rest.

God also said, “They will never enter my place of rest.”

However, some people enter that place of rest. Those who heard the Good News in the past did not enter God’s place of rest because they did not obey God.

So God set another day. That day is today.

Today is that day... Come :welcome3: Enter into God's Rest. He will embrace you there and you will find refreshing 'waters' and rest for your weary souls.

In Jesus' Name... Amen.

Hebrews 4:12-16 (KJV 21st Century)

12 For the Word of God is living and powerful and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in His sight, but all things are naked and open unto the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.

14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed into the Heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast to our profession.

15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.

16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

:Rose: :Rose: :Rose:

No matter what your feelings are, God is not untouched by them; He hears your cries and prayers and He cares ... beyond the hurts you feel.

Marriages and families are healed in Jesus' Name... Amen and Amen...

Praise God for the Prayers and Scriptures and the endless LOVE shared by TraciChanel and Health&hair28 in Jesus' Name, Amen.

Philipians 4:11-13

11 Not that I speak in respect to want, for I have learned in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.

12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

13 I can do all things through Christ who strengtheneth me.

Luke 1:37

For with God nothing shall be impossible.”


:Rose: :Rose: :Rose:

We praise God for all of our sisters on this forum and for their families and other loved ones... in Jesus' Name... Bless them, Heal them, Prosper them, Give them Peace and Rest in Jesus' Name... Amen and Amen.. :Rose:

Tonight's Prayer Service has been updated in the post above.

Ladies may I please recommend this thread and Marriage Project that has been shared with us by Supergirl (our moderator) who is a strong Believer in Jesus Christ our Lord.

Please sign up for this 'fun' and happy marriage project. I'm even encouraging the single women to sign up as well. (Hey, it's good preparation; remember Esther?). This is 'active support' which will bear good fruit in your marriages, those present and those future.

Here's the thread... 21-Day Husband Project

http://www.longhaircareforum.com/showthread.php?t=633357

Have fun on this 21 day adventure. Enjoy your hubbies ladies.

God bless each of your marriages in Jesus' name... Amen.

Hi Ladies,

Please pray for God's favor for a job I really want. This job is amazing and it would allow me to have the time/resources to visit with my family that lives out of town and I've had alot of sickness in my family. I do not have experience in this particular area. However, it appears this job is not about what you know, but who you know. I received a referral from a current employee. That of course isn't enough, but I do know Jesus and that's the "referral" I need.

Tonight's Scripture...

Too powerful not to share. I was going to post this tomorrow morning, however the Lord knows that someone needs this...

Thank you TraciChanel and Health&hair28 for sharing John chapter 14...

Let not your hearts be troubled:


Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.


4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.

8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.

9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?

10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.

12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.

15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.

16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.[/COLOR
]
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.

20 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.

21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world?

23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

24 He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me.

25 These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you.

26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.

27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.

29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do.


Arise, let us go hence.

:Rose: :Rose: :Rose:

Loved Ones... for you. :Rose:

Hear the Word of the Lord...

"Whatever it is... I'll fix it." No matter how it happened, I will make it right. However it happened, I will heal you, I will heal them. Whatever the reason, the cause I will undo the harm. I will perfect all that concerns you and work all things together for good. I will restore new life into what has been 'stilled', this I will do, I will make all things new.

Hear the Word of the Lord... fear nor fret no more; for He will keep you and all that is yours, in Jesus' Name... Amen and Amen. :Rose:

Look forward to praying with everyone tonight. I ask for prayer for favor in my upcoming evaluation for work (next week) and prayer over my students as they search for jobs and internships in this economy.

Hey LHCF,

I'm in need of prayer again. I just gt off the phone with my financial aid office at my university (our FA department is truly a mess). I do not qualify for a pell grant and i barely qualify for any loans, due to the jackpot my mother(single parent) won this year that showed an 'increase' of income (yeah right!). So because of that, i'm being put thru all kinds of hell trying to get some aid to actually go to school. I can not afford to pay for school on my own, and my family is already struggling . My dad aint around so all I got is her, and it's amazing that I can't file for independence unless i'm 'neglected' by my mother. SMH the government truly got us students in a pit ! we want to better ourselves, but if i was in jail, everything would be paid for. Why can't education be free?

Please pray that financial doors open for me and that I find multiple ways to pay for my tuition effectively. The scholarship search is dry and is already hard enough without wanting to pay with loans(money i have to pay back).

Thanks.

• I'm writing an exam tomorrow. PLease pray that I successfuly pass the exam.

• Pray that my oldest brother finds a new home and that he handles his finances correctly and wisely.

• Pray for my second older brother's health. Pray that he heals completely from his injuries.

• Pray that my oldest nephews will be in a school that he loves, learns and cathes up academically. I'm doing my best to find him a school/ program where he can be inspired, learn , grow and improve all around.

• Pray for my best friend jess. Pray that the enquiry unit where I work, will call her soon and offer her a position on a 2 year contract or more.

• Please pray that move from my current residence to my new one goes smoothly, comfortably and without any issues.

• Also pray that the trip that I'm taking next week goes smoothly and without any issues.

• Pray for the protection of my brothers and I at work. We are around a lot of negative, and jealous peolple. Its not easy. But we are holding on.

Question:

I know the bible tells us how to deal with our own jealousy towards others.But, is there something about dealing with jealousy and envy that others have towards us???

Tonight's Scriptures....

From the heart of Health&hair28 who shared Psalm 121 to encourage our hearts:

Please remember that 'He who keeps you shall not slumber or sleep, He will keep your foot unmovable, you will not stumble or fall.

Psalm 121

I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?

2 My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

3 He will not allow your foot to be moved;
He who keeps you will not slumber.

4 Behold, He who keeps Israel
Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

5 The Lord is your keeper;
The Lord is your shade at your right hand.

6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

7 The Lord shall preserve you from all evil;
He shall preserve your soul.

8 The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.

Thank you Health&hair28.... Praise God for His Word...

He is your keeper, He shall preserve you from ALL evil, He shall preserve your soul; preserve you in your going out and your coming in, from this time forth and forever more.

:Rose: Lord we thank you for TraciChanel as she continues her studies; she's been working diligently and yet still remains faithful unto you and unto each of us in her loving prayers for everyone here. We miss her, yet we release her to complete the work that God has called her to do. We pray her strength and her encouragement with her studies, her exams and with her job, and in all that she has to do, in Jesus' Name --- Psalm 121 is covering TraciChanel all the way through. Amen and Amen.

:Rose: We lift up Iwanthealthyhair67 in Jesus' Name. That she is rested and full of peace and that every care she has upon her heart is eased and the fruit of God's works shall be seen... in Jesus' Name Amen and Amen.

:Rose: Father we lift up our Married couples and Married couples to be in the name of Jesus. You are healing the hearts of them; healing the hurts and sealing their union in you, embracing them unto your heart --- from here to "Norway" and beyond... to Heaven and back, in Jesus' Name, Amen.

:Rose: Thank you donna894 for closing our session in prayer. Beautiful...:Rose:

:Rose: Praise God for the loving support of all of our sisters in Christ. We are one in the Lord and it is each of us who are upholding each other, not one holding up all.

In closing.... :Rose:

Let Jesus Touch Your Eyes...

Matthew 20:32-34


So Jesus stood still and called them, and said,

“What do you want Me to do for you?”

They said to Him, “Lord, that our eyes may be opened.”

34 So Jesus had compassion and touched their eyes. .

And immediately their eyes received sight, and they followed Him.



Jesus is asking you, 'What do you want Me to do for you?" What is it that you are asking 'Me' to do?

Whatever it is, just ask... and Jesus is loving and willing to do it...just for you.

Allow Jesus to touch your eyes, so that you can see that He is there to protect and to take care of you and all that matters in your heart.

Jesus is asking; "What do you want me to do for you?"

Touch my eyes, Lord and my heart so that I may see......and follow you.

:Rose: To follow Jesus, means that you 'Believe and Receive' all of Who He is...

Amen.

Love,

Shimmie...

Thank you ladies for the prayers! May God bless you all so much for that.
I was unable to call in last night, as my baby boy was sick and coughing and crying all night...
I will be meditating on the powerful scriptures though. Surely Jesus is our help, and He is more than willing to answer our prayers.

Have a great weekend everyone :blowkiss:

How is the beautiful bundle of love, your precious son. Is he feeling better today? I pray so. Please know that we still carried your heart in prayer last night and we alway will. You are our 'family' and nothing is going to hinder the love and prayers which are from our hearts and most of all from the heart of God our Father in Heaven.

Take care

Thank you for asking Shimmie
The "love bundle" is a bit better today, but of course now the other "love bundle" is coughing as well, so I have them both coughing and crying together. It has become quite a "sweet choir", though I feel bad for them.
I guess I won't be getting too much sleep tonight either...

My alarm still rung last night at 03.55, so I was thinking of you all, and praying in my heart, though I did not call in

What a privilege to be part of such a beautiful and loving "family". Words can not express how thankful I am for the Prayer Line. May it continue to reach out and bless many more women and their loved ones.

Love and blessings right back at ya

You're always in my heart Precious Sister... the love that surrounds you is stronger than ever.

Your faith and your victory outweighs the trial. So as a twig that falls from the branch of a tree, so shall this burden be... 'fallen'; for it no longer bears fruit; it is no longer a weapon against you.

In Jesus' Name...

Thank you kind sis...

Praise report!

Thank you sisters for praying for me regarding my evaluation. I scored outstanding in every category and I was promoted! I've been declaring Psalm 75:6-7 and it has resulted in two promotions in two years. God is AMAZING!

Also, I had asked for prayer over my father's delinquent property taxes, especially after the bank denied the loan. Now, it looks like we will be able to cover all back owed property taxes without a loan. We will lend and not have to borrow-praise Him!!

Tonight's Scripture:

Thank you Health&hair28 for sharing Psalm 27:1-5

Lord is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
2 When the wicked came against me
To eat up my flesh,
My enemies and foes,
They stumbled and fell.
3 Though an army may encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
Though war may rise against me,
In this I will be confident.


4 One thing I have desired of the Lord,
That will I seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the Lord
All the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the Lord,
And to inquire in His temple.
5 For in the time of trouble
He shall hide me in His pavilion;
In the secret place of His tabernacle
He shall hide me;
He shall set me high upon a rock.


6 And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me;
Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.


7 Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice!
Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
8 When You said, “Seek My face,”
My heart said to You, “Your face, Lord, I will seek.”
9 Do not hide Your face from me;
Do not turn Your servant away in anger;
You have been my help;
Do not leave me nor forsake me,
O God of my salvation.
10 When my father and my mother forsake me,
Then the Lord will take care of me.


11 Teach me Your way, O Lord,
And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.
12 Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries;
For false witnesses have risen against me,
And such as breathe out violence.
13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
That I would see the goodness of the Lord
In the land of the living.


14 Wait on the Lord;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
