I need someone to touch and agree with me on a few things. I have an anger issue. What's currently going on in the world with racism and the rash of police killings of unarmed black men (and subsequently no charges being filed/no justice being served) has me feeling a lot of anger. Additionally, the enemy has infiltrated my family and no one seems to see it but me and I'm very angry about this.
The second issue is more so about how I've been using my words to tear people down lately. I feel so convicted about this and I feel like if I don't reign in on this, I will say something that will hurt someone irreparably. God has given me a certain boldness when I speak that I truly hadn't really had before and I'm grateful but I notice the enemy trying to turn it into something that he can use and I'm not here for it. Please pray with and for me that I can use my words to edify and not tear down. Thank you.

Please say a prayer for my uncle who is having heart surgery today and DH's cousin who was hospitalized and is battling an aggressive form of cancer. He just celebrated his 27th birthday and is in amazing spirits after getting the news.
My favorite aunt came to me in a dream a few days ago. She was a true Prayer Warrior and it was so comforting to see her, with my uncle, together in a dream. They died not too long apart after 33 years of marriage. Her son told me that he sees her often in his dreams. I don't know what it means, if anything, but it made me feel great.

We stand in agreement for the complete healing of this young man. There is nothing that is too hard for God. We declare that this weapon that has formed against this child shall not prosper. For Christ heals every sickness and every illness (Matt 9:35). We ask that this enemy of cancer will be seen no more (Exodus 14:13). We stand in agreement that this young man will see the glory of the Lord in the land of the living (Psalm 27:13).

@bellatiamarie, thank you for your honesty. I feel the same way when I let my flesh take over. Then I read Romans 8 and realize I need to allow the Spirit of God to be in control and to allow Him to lead me. It is only then that I can pray for my enemies and that I realize that we are not at war against flesh and blood, but that this is a spiritual war. Satan wants to keep us distracted and angry and bitter and full of hatred, but we must resist the devil so that he will flee from us. The battle is not ours, but the Lord's.
Secondly, we know that in Ephesians 4:29, we are to let no corrupt communication proceed out of our mouths but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.
Dear Lord, please open the eyes, ears and heart of bellatiamarie and let her see You. Help her to know that You are in control and that even though it looks bad right now, all things work together for good to those who love You. Help her to understand that You are angry and grieving right beside her. Encourage her to humble herself and pray and seek Your face and turn from her wicked ways, so that You will hear from heaven, forgive her sin and heal her land. Lord, as believers and followers of Jesus Christ, I make this same request on behalf of all of us. Father, please ease her troubled mind and help her to bring all of her thoughts into captivity to the obedience of Christ.
Lord, give her Your peace that passes all understanding and guard her heart and mind through Christ Jesus. Amen!

Dear Lord, on behalf of @mensa, I pray that her loved one will ask Jesus Christ to be Lord of his or her life, that this one will be filled with the Holy Spirit and that they will be led by the Spirit of God. I further pray that you will supply all of their needs according to Your riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Amen!

You have a righteous anger about what is going on in the world, and the abuse and mistreatment that people of color have endured for centuries. But I stand on God's promise that He is not mocked and what evildoers sow, that shall they reap. I pray that God opens eyes of the blind and heals hearts. I pray that God raises up a generation of officers who are men and women after His own heart and will see men and women of color as people and not immediately as threats. We agree and declare that God will promote and place in power those who will take a stand against this cruelty and injustice and snatch away the power from those who are ignorant, feeble-minded, weak, and abuse their power as cowards. God can give power and promote and He can also take power away (Psalm 75:6-7)
As for me, I will declare this forever; I will sing praise to the God of Jacob, who says, “I will cut off the horns of all the wicked, but the horns of the righteous will be lifted up.” Psalm 75:9-10. God is still sovereign, He is still on the throne, and He reigns. We must intercede and bombard Heaven with prayers, agreeing and standing on His word. I pray that the dissention and discord is removed from your family and that your family comes into one accord, united for justice.
Lord I pray that you place a guard over Bellatiamarie's mouth. (Psalm 141:3). When you open your mouth to speak, we pray that God will fill your mouth with what to say. That the words spoken will convict but not condemn. And we pray that the traps that the enemy has set for you will ensnare them and you will pass by safely (Psalm 141:9-10)

I stand in agreement with Newgrowth15 for our sister Mensa's family member. It is Your will that NONE should perish. We ask that for a hedge of protection to be placed around this family member and that You send multiple witnesses to this person. We ask, oh God, that You prick this person's heart to be sensitive and receptive to Your voice because You have been calling this person for years. Let Your child hear Your voice and draw close to you. Your promise is that if we praise and lift You up that You will draw all men unto you. We cannot save, but YOU can. So we thank you in advance for drawing this family member closer to You, to deepen his/her understanding of you. We rejoice in advance for another soul saved!

Father, we ask that You would guide the eyes, hands and thoughts of the doctors performing heart surgery on the uncle of @naturalmanenyc. We further ask that his recovery will be speedy and that You will restore him to good health.
Lord, we also ask on behalf of her DH's cousin, that you would heal his body of cancer, supernaturally. That you would give this cousin a testimony that glorifies You and that others would be drawn to You as a result of his testimony to your healing power, grace and mercy.
Lord, I also ask that you comfort naturalmanenyc, her husband and their family at this difficult time. Remind them that you love them and their family no matter what happens. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen!

We pray for your uncle to have a successful procedure and for the healing of your husband's cousin. We pray for each nurse, surgeon, therapist, CNA, any practitioner that is ministering to their needs. We pray that the medicine is effective. We ask that the insurance covers each aspect of the surgery, hospitilization and aftercare. We pray that family members and friend's surround both families with the support they need-whether it is running errands, dropping off meals, or just coming by the hospital to visit. Regardless of the diagnosis or prognosis, there is NOTHING that is to hard for You. For You oh God specialize in the "exceedingly, abundantly, and above all that we could even ask or think".
We pray for the Spirit to give peace of mind and harmony to both families during this season. We look forward to miraculous praise reports of restoration and the physical ailments disappearing. I ask oh God that the cousin in particular is healed in such a way that even the doctors say, "we can't explain this" and that everyone knows that it was YOU oh God who is the true physician and healer.

Thank you all so much for your prayers. My mom lost her baby brother recently (grandma's baby) so learning about this surgery last minute (he didn't tell us in advance) is scary for everyone.

Praise the Lord that his surgery went well!!!
God is not a half way God. We are praying for every procedure, every step, every medication, every appointment, every post-op visit. We are praying that the damage to his heart is minimal and that the pacemaker works to perfection and that there are no side effects or complications.
Newgrowth15,
Thanks so much.
In The Name Of Jesus Christ...I enter into agreement with you.
You are truly a brave and precious soul. God will indeed look after you, He loves you just that much and more.
Praying for you...

We pray for these parents protection and safe passage and they return to their home country. We ask that the process run smoothly and that they have favor every step of the way. We pray that God provides peace of mind for their children during this time of relocation and that no harm shall befall anyone in their family.

Hi everyone,
I have you all in my prayers, and I will continue to intercede. Right now, I would just like for you all to help me pray that my husband and I could be filled with the Holy Ghost, and brought closer to God. We do not want to be lukewarm Christians. We want to be prayer warriors. I want to be on fire for Christ, and I want the same for my husband. If you could also pray financial security and the end of anxiety for us both, I would appreciate that.

@alex114, I pray God's peace upon you and your husband. I pray that the both of you would be anxious for nothing, but that in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, you would make your requests known to God. I further pray that as you both seek God's kingdom first and His righteousness, all of the things you need will be added unto you. I pray that you both love and serve God with all of your hearts, minds and strength for who He is and not just for what He does. I pray His protection over your marriage and family and that as you both draw near to God, He will draw near to you both. I further pray that He will open the windows of heaven and pour out blessings upon you and that the two of you will be blessings to others. In the matchless name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
