Pls pray for my brother Ken...he had an OD due to prescription drug interactions....he is off most of the medication now but still in depression, I guess withdrawal, and anxious....He has heard the word and knows the Bible to some degree...pls pray for his salvation and triumph over these things...and that he will be on fire for God! I am concerned for him (in my fleshly existence)

Hi Lori,

I am standing in agreement with you about your brother and am praying in the Holy Spirit....

Lori...Do not worry about this, Lay your concerns at the master's feet. Take them to the cross and pray for strength for your brother, pray patience and victory, pray our Father's Love and the Lord to breathe into him to restore him completely...Think on these on what is lovely, nobel, holy about him see him as that and that will have an impact on his spirit.

I am to remind you that the Lord restores people, temples, cities, situations...resurrects what is dead and shift your focus on to the scriptures concerning these....take your focus off of the problem and onto the solution...

Also this song is in my head for you....to remember to do no matter what is happening around you, praise and worship songs are more than just singing and thanking the Lord, they can aid in renewing, renergising, healing and restoring our focus off of our problems onto the Lord who is our solution for everything...Jesus answer is always yes and amen....

With you I belong by Sonia Ryan 1999

Jesus my heart,
Belongs to You.
Saviour how my soul
Cries out for You

You're calling me
Closer to You
I give my all I surrender to You
With every step
I'm falling into You

You are my joy
I've found my strength in You
You are my peace
And I will rest in You
You are my hope
And I will follow You
From this moment on
With You I belong

Lori, It was the lines "You are my joy
I've found my strength in You
You are my peace
And I will rest in You", was what was going over and over in my head...and is also the answer we need too. Thankyou Lord for answering Lori and us for we know you are with us even if at times when we can't sense you or feel you because of all the other stuff that shifts our focus off of you. We ask for your forgiveness for our distractions and ask that we just keep our focus on you and please keep us save in your love in Jesus' name, amen...

love and blessings in the Lord,

Serenity

I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.

and binds up their wounds.

Thanks, John and Serenity......I am believing for my brother but I think he may avoiding things he should deal with as he seems to be carrying on with life as though nothing just happened....I don't know, I don't see all things...but thanks for the prayers and keep praying....
Be blessed.....
Lori

Ken,

Keep planting the seed. God knows your heart and wants all to be saved and free. We will continue to pray for his healing and for guidance.

Nothing is too big for God.

He sees and hears our prayers! May Kenny feel the presence of God's healing mercies as we continue to lift him up.

Hold on to the grip of faith!

lori
I have Ken in my prayers for miracles of salvation and healing. May God annoint you to witness and minister to him in wisdom.

Hi Lori,

I am to remind you that it is not us that does the change, for us we can do nothing, it is the Lord who brings change within our minds, hearts, spirits, he gives us new hearts, minds and spirits. The only thing we are to do is to keep praying, petitioning the Lord and asking for the transformation and deliverence of our Loved ones, believing and having faith the Lord will do it. When your prayers for you brother have been received on the spiritual realm, serenity will come to you, you will feel a peace in this matter and you will not feel that you need to pray about it anymore. Then all you need to do is watch and see how the events unfold.

I am so glad that transformation is not of anything we do our selves, it is the Lord who does it all, which means we don't have to place our trust on people who can not be relied upon to make those changes for themselves without his promptings. I have heard of testimonies where people have been delivered from all sorts of things because they have had loved ones praying for them sometimes for years. The song I had was for you to rest in God with this matter and every other matter...I am more than happy to send it to you, u can email me and let me know your details if you do...I have seen what continuous praise and worship music can do along with prayer, reading the bible, fasting etc......however each act by themselves is only what the Lord uses for his perfect will...

love and blessings in the Lord,

Serenity

I couldn't get into the praise board....Kenny is doing better....he is a very quiet person, keeps alot inside and now he is openly sharing his past pain(s) and is getting better medical care.....I was struck by a television testimony one night as I mourned over Kenny's illnesses...God spoke thru this lady who said, even when I couldn't ask for myself and didn't believe in God, my family was interceding for me and God acted....thank you FAMILY for interceding....pls continue til Kenny can praise God.....I did tell him that I had people praying and that I believed that with each day (and that is all we really have) is that things would improve for him....I ask you Family, Church to continue to pray that God may truly be Glorified in Kenny's life and that the miracle God is and will do will be undeniable that it is of a Divine Nature....many of my family members need salvation....thank you for praying that into existence......
Be blessed and encouraged...for your prayers are not in vain!

Lori,

Kenny and your family are in my prayers. Praise God that he is doing better.

--------------------------------------------

Father we continue to lift up Kenny to you. We pray that you continue to use our sister Lori to show Your love to him. Thank you God that we are saved by grace and that you accept us where we are at. We pray that you soften Kenny's heart to receive your spirt. Amen


For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God (Ephesians 2:8)

Eternal and Holy God,
I lift this family up to your right now. I ask that you heal all wounds and fears.

Amen

Lord Jesus, please be with Kenny today. Father, we come to You in his behalf and ask that You annoint him with Your Holy Spirit. Open his eyes to the things that cause him to choose things which addict and enslave as a means of recourse. Help Him to understand that You make us "rich" and add no sorrow to it. You alone give to us and fill us and heal us and grant us mercy and grace and every good thing; and, there are no reprecussions or things waiting at the end to blind-side us or to cause us pain. Grant Kenny this knowledge and reveal Yourself to him. May he experience Your healing and deliverance and a personal relationship with You to last his lifetime. We ask this in the Name of Your Son and our Saviour, Jesus the Annointed One. Trustworthy is Your Name!
