Heavenly Father,
I am constantly reminded of Your gift to us in the mighty weapon of prayer, individually and as The Body of Christ. Lord, together, Bob and I pray for each of these dear ones everyday. We pray for them in our private quiet times, too and throughout our waking hours. If Jesus asked three of His best friends to pray for Him, how much more do we need others to pray for and with us?
Thank You, Lord, that we can boldly come to you as we seek to pray according to Your Will. Thank You, Lord, for always hearing us and for answers that go above and beyond our requests. Thank You for answers that guard and protect us. What a beautiful reassurance to meet You anytime or anyplace knowing that we are welcome in Your presence. There is a powerful confidence in that You always hear us when we live and walk in Truth.
Praise You that our prayers linger with You; never being dismissed or forgotten, even after they are answered. We are learning that Your answers may not come when we want. It is enough that You hear and will respond in Your perfect timing. May we never fail to recognize the great "I Am" through worship, adoration and trust in the power of our prayers. May we all commit ourselves to praying for each other and for others, knowing it's spiritually healthy to ask they to pray for us, too. All good, Lord! In Jesus' Name, Amen
Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take
or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.

Ephesians 6:18-19 And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. 19 Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel
John 14:25-26 “All this I have spoken while still with you. 26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name,will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, concerned citizens can change the world. Indeed it is the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead
"As long as we have unsolved problems, unfilled desires and a mustard seed of faith, we have all we need for a vibrant prayer life." - John Ortberg

Loved ones, we have seen the power of prayer over and over. Never doubt that God is waiting for you for come to Him with your praises, needs and to supply what is lacking. Align your will with His Will and wonders will never cease.
Always and Forever ~
