Ron is in need of salvation. He has pushed everyone away because he hates himself and doesn't think he's worthy. He has expressed openness to learning about God, but just as we were getting close, he pushed me away too. The enemy must love the rift between us because now Ron is cut off from hearing about God. He has no other close relationships, he says, and lives his life working all the time without any emotional connections. With your agreement, I pray to our Lord, thanking Him for loving Ron, and ask that the Lord bring Ron to his knees. May Ron cry his heart out for the Lord and be answer

I would like to put in a prayer request for my aunt she is a member here at GC her name is Elizabeth Walker. She is currently in Albert Einstein Hospital in the BX, NY. She has been living with COPD and has recently been hospitalized due to having a COPD flare up, pneumonia and is also showing signs of confusion/dementia. I'm requesting prayer for her healing and her comfort. When visiting her she was upset because she hasn't been able to come to church in a while due to her health and had also been saying that she is tired and wants God to take her however, I know that prayer changes things.

At this time I am seriously struggling financially and I feel down at times. I am asking for extra prayers for the Lord to give me some relief and to lift my spirit.

I believe in prayer and I know things will work out, but it helps me to know that someone or others from our church are praying for me.

At the beginning of March I came home and found my 16 year old Stepson hanging in his closet. I proceeded to perform CPR until Emergency Personnel arrived. Unbeknownst to me, my Stepson had passed prior to me starting CPR. At the end of March, my Grandfather passed. Prior to all of this, at the end of August 2021 the Mom of my then Partner (now Fiancé) was diagnosed with Cancer and she passed away by October 2021. These past 2 years have been so stressful and filled with so much anxiety and sadness. I am trying very hard to hold on but I feel like the devil is on me and my family.

A month ago I sent a prayer request asking the church to pray for a young lady name Jessica who was in a domestic violence situation. Praise God that she’s no longer in that situation. She’s no longer homeless, she’s now living in a two bedroom apartment with her two little girls and has a brand new job. The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous man availeth much.

You are worthy of wholehearted worship and perpetual praise. Help us better reflect the lives that mirror Your commandments of love. You know our misdoings and what we miss doing. In this Lenten season, revive your church inside the brick and mortar of the walls but more importantly inside the hearts of those who claim You are their God.

Psalm 140[a]
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1 Rescue me, Lord, from evildoers;
protect me from the violent,
2 who devise evil plans in their hearts
and stir up war every day.
3 They make their tongues as sharp as a serpent’s;
the poison of vipers is on their lips.[b]

4 Keep me safe, Lord, from the hands of the wicked;
protect me from the violent,
who devise ways to trip my feet.
5 The arrogant have hidden a snare for me;
they have spread out the cords of their net
and have set traps for me along my path.

6 I say to the Lord, “You are my God.”
Hear, Lord, my cry for mercy.
7 Sovereign Lord, my strong deliverer,
you shield my head in the day of battle.
8 Do not grant the wicked their desires, Lord;
do not let their plans succeed.

9 Those who surround me proudly rear their heads;
may the mischief of their lips engulf them.
10 May burning coals fall on them;
may they be thrown into the fire,
into miry pits, never to rise.
11 May slanderers not be established in the land;
may disaster hunt down the violent.

12 I know that the Lord secures justice for the poor
and upholds the cause of the needy.
13 Surely the righteous will praise your name,
and the upright will live in your presence.

When I thought my dad was cheating on my mom with a church member, I was hurtful, rude and unbecoming. While I thought he was cheating I was going out drinking, watching lewd movies and waxing away in college while the unforgiveness ravaged my life. I want to pray to repent because I cannot repay my Father. The Lord kept the situation with my dad covered and forgiven. I did struggle with reading harlequin novels and masturbation in high school so I thought why he would cheat would be my fault. I got delivered and got out my parents house so not to live openly in rebellion longer than 18. I struggle with respect for self and shame. Praying to God he will forgive for blaming the men in my family and their alternative lives of womanizing for why I struggled with lust too. It is to be born human to struggle with sin. I do repent.
