Prayer request thread.

Thank you for the heads up! I will lift up our sister and her family right now and we will also cover them on our prayer call tonight. Off to OT to find the thread. Thanks!

 

Thank you for your prayers @Sashaa08, once again. My sister informed me yesterday that her husband's medical expenses for the hospital will be covered 100%. I praise God and give him all the glory and I wanted to thank you for your direct and specific prayer for their financial situation. My brother-in-law is still in the rehab facility and he is determined to get stronger so that he can walk out of there on his own two feet. My family is praising God and giving Him all the glory. I just feel like shouting and dancing right now.

 

Praise the Lord!! I am so happy that his medical expenses were completely covered. We are believing for a full recovery in Jesus' name.

 

Amen!

 

Praise the Lord! My brother-in-law went home from the rehab today. My niece sent a picture of him sitting in the car and ready to go. He called me when he got home and we praised The Lord together. All I can say is thank you all for your prayers and support over these 3 1/2 months. God is so good.

 

@newgrowth15, thank you for the update! Glad that he's back at home. Keep praising the Lord and sharing his testimony. God is truly amazing!

 

Hello ladies,
@YvetteWithJoy @Shimmie @mrselle @bellatiamarie @newgrowth15
@Chicoro

I haven't posted on this board since April, because so much has occurred, but I just wanted to give yall an update.
Unfortunately and with great sadness, my mom passed away on May 12th--- the day before Mother's Day.

Let me just say that the entire months of April and May were practically a blur. I'll try to sum it up, but at one point, BOTH of my parents were admitted in the same hospital, on the same floor--in different rooms for one week!

My dad ultimately had to have his big toe amputated. My mom had the debridement surgery and spent 3 weeks in wound care/swing bed/rehab after her surgery.

Both of them were discharged on that Wednesday prior to Mother's Day. My mom passed away that Saturday before Mother's Day.
I've been through an array of emotions over the last few months, and I've come to understand that although we loved my mom, God loved her most. She is no longer in pain, so oddly for some reason, that makes me want to rejoice.
When my mom was first hospitalized she was given so much morphine and other drugs to manage her pain.
During one of her drug induced conversations, she started talking about her best friend who had passed away nearly 40 years earlier! I hadn't heard her mention her name in years, so that was a big shock.

I had a feeling then, that my mom may not recover, so it gave me time to really understand what was going on.

During my mom's last days in the swing bed, although she was in severe pain, I was able to spend the night with her, wash her hair, bought her nail polish, crossword puzzles and other things. I also rolled her outside in her wheelchair to get some sun and fresh air and allowed her to enjoy one of the most beautiful days of spring!

My only comfort throughout her loss is that she passed away in her own bed at home early that Saturday morning, with my dad at her side.
That Friday night the 11th, she had one of her favorite meals--a shrimp poboy from local cajun poboy joint.
Not soon afterwards, she wanted to go to bed early. My dad said she couldn't sleep because she was in so much pain. So he did what he could to help soothe her by rubbing her back.
Early that Saturday morning about 3am, she prepared my dad by letting him know by saying.."I'm okay now. I feel better, everything's going to be okay, so you get on the other side and get some rest".
He realized that morning when he woke up about 7am that she had passed away.
They were married 55 years.

Today is my mom's birthday.

While it has been difficult trying to live on without her and get through this day without her, I have this sense of calm knowing that she has earned her wings and is truly at peace.

In addition, miraculously my dad is doing quite well and is walking cane free, at age 81.
Actually he never even had to have walking assistance, and stated that he never was in any pain after his amputation! He also has been given a total discharge from his doctors, in spite of his amputation--no more weekly appointments.

Anyway, just wanted to give you all an update, and say Happy Birthday Mommy!

Thank you ladies once again for your prayers, it truly means a lot. God is STILL good!

 

@Cien, my heart is with you at this bittersweet time. Today is the 20th anniversary of my Dad's passing. And yes, God is still good. I am lifting up you and your family in prayer asking that God comforts you all and gives you His peace. I pray that you will be able to cherish the time you have with your Dad and that his health will continue to improve. I pray that you will have fond memories of your Mom that will make you smile and perhaps even laugh. I pray that as you cast your cares upon Him, God will lift your spirit to soaring new heights. May His love and comfort keep you, in Jesus' name. Amen!

 

@Cien, Sorrry to hear about your mother passing away but glad to hear that your father is doing so well. My mom passed away several years ago and last year I lost my sister and father. Loss is difficult but as Newgrowth15 said, cherish those memories. I still acknowledge my parents and sister's birthdays. We will keep lifting you and your father in prayer. He has suffered the loss of his wife and closest companion.

We pray that God will continue to strengthen your father and that as you all think of your mother that those memories bring a smile to your face and laughter to your hearts.

 

Pray for my family. Please.

 

Lord, You know the needs in this family. I lift them up to You and ask that You do what only You can do for, with and through them to Your glory. Father, strengthen @LadyBugsy for such a time as this and give her the courage to hold on to Your unchanging hand and the wisdom to know what and when to speak into the lives of her family members. In Jesus' name, Amen!

 

Ladies please keep my grandmother in your prayers. She is experiencing some kidney issues. I know God is able and I’ve seen Him do it before. Please join me in prayer for a complete healing of her body in the name of Jesus. Thanks in advance.

 

@bellatiamarie , we lift your grandmother in prayers-that God repair her damaged kidneys and that her renal numbers start normalizing and improving. We pray that she will not have to go on dialysis and that her health will be restored. In Jesus' name, amen.

 

Amen! Thank you.... she was dialyzed yesterday and she will likely go again tomorrow. My prayer is that she won’t have to go on dialysis long term. Please continue to pray for her as she is having some other issues as well. I know God is able and I’m trusting only in Him.

 

I forgot to come back and update y’all on my granny. God healed her body fully and completely 100%. Her kidneys bounced back right away. No dialysis! No residual issues! Her lungs even improved! She spent almost 2 weeks in the hospital y’all and things were very questionable. She had sooooo many people praying for her! I kept reminding the Lord of the promises that He made to her and my prayer was for a complete restoration. He did it. I’m thankful! Keep trusting Him. Whatever you’re going through.

 

@bellatiamarie , thank you for that miraculous praise report. HE IS ABLE!!! What a blessing. He has done exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think and we are grateful.

 

I’m asking for prayer on behalf of my Mom she is currently in ICU. I’m believing for a right now healing in her body.I pray her pulse “heart rate”will return to normal & the surgery goes well with speedy recovery.Thanking you Father God in advance.Amen

 

@Lita, we stand in agreement with you right now for your mother's healing. We pray that her heart rate stabilizes and returns to normal range. We pray that the surgery is effective with no errors and that the medications work perfectly with no negative side effects. We pray that God blesses the hands of the surgeon, every nurse, every CNA, every therapist, and any practitioner that is ministering to Lita's mother. We pray that God endows then with unique and godly wisdom and discernment in every decision made concerning Lita's mother's health and recovery. We believe for a full and complete recovery, in Jesus' name, amen.

 

I’m touching and agreeing with both @Lita @Sashaa08...do it God. We’ve seen you do it before. We trust in You Father!

 

@bellatiamarie @Sashaa08 Thank youwith all my heart.
Father God Father God as we all come into agreement,yes you have done it before “miraculous healing” do it again.Thank you
In the precious name of Jesus.Amen Amen

 

@Shimmie Thank You
My family & I really appreciate it..Means a lot to us..Words can’t explain
May Father God bless and keep you always.In Jesus name.Amen Amen

 

@Cien I pray that our Heavenly Father fill you & your family with his awesome grace,mercy and peace in every area of your lives.In Jesus name.Amen Amen

 

Please lift up Ernest in prayer. He is going through something and has requested that all the prayer warriors call out his name to the Lord for help at this time. Thank you in advance and may God bless you.

 

Prayer request for my child and me, for our voices to be heard today and my request given easily so we can be legally set free from the past, so we can be truly free to live happily and successfully. Thank you so much.

 

Lord God, we lift up Ernest in prayer. We don't know the situation but You do. We ask that according to Your word in Psalm 138:8 that You will perfect everything that concerns Ernest. We pray that Ernest will have peace of mind during this time and that You give him divine favor. Close doors that need to be shut, break down strongholds, and may no weapon that has formed against him prosper. We pray a hedge of protection around Ernest and his family, in Jesus' name, Amen.

 

Lord God we ask that Reinventing21 and her child receive justice and that your vindication will shine like the noonday sun (Psalm 37:6). Behold, all things for Reinventing21 are made new, and just like her forum name, she is being Reinvented. Her life is being reinvented. It is not too late and greater are You in her than he that is in the world.
Luke 7:50 "Reinventing21", your faith has saved you, go in peace.

Speak this out loud to encourage yourself and as your declaration: I need not fight this battle. I will stand firm and see the Lord deliver me and my child. I will not be afraid and I will not be discouraged. Whenever I go out, the LORD will be with me. 2 Chronicles 20:17

 

@Sashaa08, thank you for your prayers. I will pass this on to my nephew so that he will be encouraged in his spirit.
