You need not be afraid. There is no right or wrong way to pray. This is between you and Him and He wants a relationship with you! You will be so surprised at how great it feels to WRITE your prayer out! So, go on! WORSHIP HIM! Give Him thanks! Voice your requests! Stand in the gap for another! Fill the "Bowl of Intercession". (The name for this prayer forum comes from this scripture verse in the Book of Revelations:
Revelation 5:3 "Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints."


[ Full Size ] WHAT GOES WHERE IN PRAYING HANDS

1.) THE BOWL OF INTERCESSION:
YOU ARE INVITED TO USE THE GREEN BOX ABOVE CALLED "THE BOWL of INTERCESSION" to JOURNAL YOUR PRAYERS FOR OTHERS and YOURSELF.
This prayer tool is a wonderful way for us to agree with one another in prayer.
The Bowl of Intercession has been set aside for PRAYER ONLY; and therefore, NO OTHER COMMUNICATION SHOULD GO ON IN THERE.
To use this chat box you will need to click the SET NAME tab and create a LOG IN NAME PASSWORD. After you have done this once you simply will Log-in using that name and password when you come to pray. (If you have set up a LOG-IN on any other chat box here at LW or with "chatango" then you can use that same login name here.)

2.) PLEASE USE THE "PRAYER WALL" BELOW TO POST PRAYER REQUESTS ONLY. THAT WAY WE ARE CERTAIN NOT TO MISS AN URGENT REQUESTS DUE TO THE CONGESTION OF OTHER COMMUNICATIONS.
**IMPORTANT** Let's keep in mind that it is in confidence that somone trusts us with the prayer needs of their family, friends and even for themselves.

3.) WE WANT TO CELLEBRATE GOD'S GOODNESS IN ANSWERED PRAYER ALONG SIDE YOU!! Please post these reports in the Discussion titled: "PRAISE REPORTS!!!!" (there is also a TAB at the top of the page) Post these as often as you like!

Tim was admitted last night thru the ER. The pain following the procedure was unbearable. Thankfully there are no ruptures, only pain. They did find yesterday that he has diverticulosis and had several polyps removed. He will probably have to stay another night.I am headed back out there now.

Please pray for my daughter Rebecca who has been fighting a sinus and ear infection and now has flu on top of it. She went to the doctor yesterday and got a stronger antibiotic for the infection and is out of classes for a couple of days per doctor's orders. She is worried about missing classes and assignments. I would appreciate prayers for her recovery and for catching up in her classes.
Thanks,
Patti

I want to thank each and every one of you for your prayers, I have truely been blessed by a group I know I can come to and cry out to in prayer.
We brought mom home on Sat. well my dad did, I was ill more emotionally then anything I think, mom has still a long way to come in her journey to recovery and will continue as an out patient for rehab.
I will continue to be there as needed and possibly butting in, in a nice way of course to help.
Continued prayer are much appreciated for her recover and for my dads strength and health, as well as my own, I am in a lot of pain and physically exhausted.
Thanku dear family for your prayers

I've flitted in and out of LW this past week - wanting to put a prayer request in here but finding that the words will not come to me.....for the first time I have found it difficult to settle here and stay awhile in your company.

A week ago today a work colleague (28 year old male - Christian) committed suicide. Jonny was employed in the Christian outreach side of the company, involving young people in outreach and discipleship programs, both at home here and sending summer teams throughout the world.
Pray for these young folks seeking understanding and answers to their whats and whys in these tragic circumstances, for Jonny's colleagues coming to terms with the loss of an apparently happy upbeat young man, and of course for Jonny's parents who have lost their only son.
Thank you friends for the facility to come here and be assured of your support.

Hello my sisters and brothers

I have a very serious and urgent prayer request. Over the past few weeks I have slowly become more and more unable to lift my arms/head, shoulders etc, along with a full blown flare in my legs/back so that I can only walk with a walker. However I can't walk with a walker when my hands/arms/shoulders are this way. More importantly, my only contact to all of you and to the world is through the internet. It is taking me every last bit of stamina to even write this but I need help and I know you girls are the ones that can help me.

Please pray that this flare settles down without becoming permanent, as I have watched it getting worse and worse for months now without any remission. Pray that I might have the fortitude to still load Christian files on my ipod so that I can at least keep withinn the body of Christ and feel his Holy Spirit. Also, please pray that He will help me to find a way to be comfortably online again. I believe that I will need someone to assist me in programming my voice recognition software; an angel sent from Heaven is my hope for this prayer.

I am accepting that the Lord is putting me"on the shelf" for awhile, but even the little things I could do, such as giving encouragement to strangers and friends alike online seems to be shut down for awhile. I am most upset that I cannot even read my devotionals or my bible, or chat online with Christian sisters and brothers like you. I have no physical church to attend, nor fellow congretionalists that I know, so I am feeling especially cut off.

Ladies, I have watched our Lord take one thing away at a time over the last few years, and it took me waaaayyyy to long to figure out that he no longer wanted my work to be outside of my home. I kept changing jobs, letting go of responsibility down until I could no longer even attend work 1 day a week. I used to say that I felt like a blow up clown: God would push me back to lie down, and I'd pop right back up again with a silly smile on my face. I suppose that this could be part of his plan, but I feel more like it might be an attack from the evil one on our family. We are growing quickly within the Lord and have given up everything, including work, to wait on the Lord. (My hubby has had to be off work to look after me; it looks like our 'past' has caught up to us and we are once again in the writing/researching arena. We both feel that He is doing a HUGE turn in our lives so that we can work for Him in the way He wants, now that we have woken up from our slumber.

I miss and love you all...i hope to drop by at least once a week if i can, until my flare goes down or I get the software working. My hubby has helped me with the typing this time.

I love you all and miss talking to you!

Thank you for the prayers for my brother. He is doing better. No heart blockages but they changes many of his medications around in hopes to make him feel better, God is good.
Miriam Comment by Miriam on November 11, 2009 at 8:39pm
Please keep my brother in your prayers. He is five years older than I am and is also in a wheelchair with Muscular Dystrophy. He has a history of heart problems and has an anomaly with his coronary artieries. He is actually missing one. Anyway he is going tomorrow for a check because they think he is having more heart problems. We are not sure what will be needed. His name is Richard. Thanks so much. Miriam
