		<description>For Dianne and Cheryl,

Dearest Lord JESUS..It is heartbreaking reading the pain above that your beloved daughters, Dianne and Cheryl are going through in these challenging marital circumstances. They are precious and am asking in your powerful name that they be protected from physical abuse..That you will surround them with your protective Angels..and give guidance as to what they are to do in their individual circumstances. These are serious problems, dear Lord, but not bigger than you and am believing and asking in JESUS name for relief, protection and help for these two dear ones that you love so much! Amen, Amen and Amen! We Praise you, Father, and entrust this to you for solving. (((((((Dianne and Cheryl)))))))</description>

		<description>My husband is still abusive, even though he has changed in other areas.  My &quot;character defects,&quot; or &quot; sins&quot; play into this, too.  He so wants to be in denial about his abusivness that he keeps falling back into it.  He has not done any physical damage to me in quite a while, but he can still be cruel, controlling, and manipulative. 

He threatened to put me through a wall tonight, and he has had me pushed up against a wall 2 or 3 times in the last several months, and he has punched or hit things, including something in my hands recently.  So he might be escalating.

So, although some of my misery is self-generated, it isn&#039;t all.  If this is true for you, too, Cheryl, I pray that you have, or get the tools to deal with it.  Pray that I use mine wisely, too.

If your husband is no longer abusive, praise God, and pray than mine gets better, too.</description>

		<description>I Need PRAYER.. 
Please help me I need prayer support. I am in severe depression due to a soul tie I allowed in my life. I divorced my husband 7years ago due to abuse issues for our 24yr marriage. To make life worse I fell deep in love, and sin with another man. “He swept me off my feet” However after a couple years I seen red flags and realized it wasn’t where the Lord wanted me, and I felt burdened to return to my husband. I did remarry my husband in april’06. I still have love, and desires for this man and its destroying me I have prayed, and asked others to pray. I have to truly let go of this man, and be stronger than ever before in God’s will, and learn to love, and respect my husband. I also started smoking cigarettes, and drinking while with this man.. I need to let go of all this sin I can’t live like this anymore. I need prayer, and deliverance.. God Bless, Cheryl,    Thankyou. I need to get healthy spiritually, physically, mentally, and help others for the Lord. I NEED peace..If I can help ONE woman avoid this trap it will be worth all the pain..</description>

		<description>I too have three girls. My youngest is already making plans for her twenty eighth birthday which will be next July. She says she wants to have an Hawaiian party. She is a born again christian but she plans on having an alcohol beverage there along with some nonalcohol ones. Even though she says she is only going to make one batch of the alcohol drink and when it is gone it is gone I tried to convince her that it wouldn&#039;t be a very good christian testimony. Please pray and tell me what you ladies think.</description>

		<description>Ann, What beautiful prayers have been lifted up to the ONE who loves you and your daughters sooooo much. I prayed the same prayers for as I read over them. Thanking Him in advance for what He is going to do. So many of our children are in the same place, not walking with the Lord, because they listen to the worlds way, and not the right way. God often reminds me that I also went against my mother&#039;s teachings of right and wrong. However, she didn&#039;t teach me about God and salvation, so I made sure I taught mine. But my one and only son still is not walking with the Lord. But he is getting closer. In the meantme I support him with love, and pray without ceasing.

Nancy, praising the Lord that your day was &quot;cooler&quot;. PRAISE HIM! I couldn&#039;t help but weep when I read about your co-worker. Drugs and alcohol are serious problems and I certainly have never had to deal with them. But, the one that loves her soooooo has wisdom and power to do something 
great for that family. Praying that he will protect her and the children as He works a miracle in this man&#039;s life. HE is able!</description>

		<description>Dear Ann,

I pray that your children will take note of God&#039;s word. I too am a mother of two and I continue to Pray that God will direct them into knowing him and his truths in regards to how one should live. 

The bible warns all of us to not be unequally YOKED and none of your childrens relationships will work out for them if they do not take this to heart. I feel your pain and sorrow for I just so much wish that I could control and tell my already grown up daughters what to and what not to allow in their lives. Just today, my oldest left my home filled with tears for she is so heavenly burdened by the dysfunction that still is so actively alive within our family close and extended. The only thing that I could say is that you need to detach from it in order to not allow it to do harm in her life. 

We all love our children so much just as God loves all of us and this day i learned one more valuable lesson after speaking with my daughter and calming her down from things that are not hers to deal with. That being how ashamed I felt by still having such a big familiy that chooses to live life the way in which is not at all proper in God&#039;s eyes. Yet the only thing that I know to do is pray, pray,pray for them all and to try to set a godly example for them all yet not get sucked into such chaos that God already delivered me from.

Father God may you draw Anne&#039;s children to you more and more as well as my two precious ones too. In Jesus name I pray, Amen

		<description>Dear Ann,

Praying for your daughters and know every Prayer Warrior on here will do the same! Draw strength this night from the fact that you raised them in the &quot;right way to go&quot;..and, sometimes, they temporarily &quot;depart&quot; like the Bible says in Proverbs....but those &quot;seeds&quot; you planted will draw them back! Praying  &quot;earthen harvesters&quot; into their pathways... HE will draw them for you! HE will put those who will remind them of the way you raised them! Be with Ann, Father God, and answer her prayers and give her Peace while you work in her daughters&#039; lives. Protect them while you do, beloved Father.. Amen and AMEN!!!</description>

		<description>I ask that all the women join me in prayer that my three daughters realize who they are and whose they are and that they allow the Lord to introduce bible beleiving and living young men into their lives. Poor choices and wanting love in all the wrong places has caused so many injuries into thier lives. I have taught  and lived the life of Christ before my children and the very thing you teach them against is what they found or found them. Thank you.</description>

		<description>Good morning ladies. I hope you are all well this morning. Thank you all for praying for me about the heat. The lord answered through our supervisor. He let us have extra time off on our breaks. Praise the Lord. I have a prayer request for one of my Cole workers. She is having a ruff time now with her husband. He drinks and is on drugs. He says terrible this to her and her children. He has warrants out for his arrest. She is very fearful for herself and her children and is trying to either find another place to live  or get him out of the house. I told her to call the police and they will come get him because he has warrants out for his arrest but she is afraid to.

(((((JUNE))))))

Thank you ladies! If there is one good thing that has come out of the trials that i am going through, it is a closer relationship with God, and learning to &#039;let go and let God&#039;. God is good and faithful to those who love HIM. He will bring me through all of this, as He will all of you. 

Instead of telling God how big our problems are, we should be telling our problems how big God is! With God all things are possible!!! Alleluia! :) Be strong in the Lord and His mighty power. (Ephesians 6:10)

Keeping all of you in prayer. :)</description>
