You have been lifted up in prayer. I hope you are feeling that lift, as me and my team carried your requests before His throne of grace.

Hundreds of prayer requests poured in, ranging from a better friendship with Jesus, to New Testaments for the Esimbi people of Cameroon, to salvation for loved ones. You opened your hearts.

It’s been a joy to partner with you. We divided your prayer requests among 4 of us and took them before the Lord.

As we prayed, we also listened and wrote down the thoughts, prayers and Bible verses that the Lord spoke to our hearts.

Take a minute to jump in and read these insights*. May your soul be watered and strengthened.

From Kathleen

Visionary for unreached people groups and intercessor:

As I prayed over your requests, I kept seeing: If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all – how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things? (Romans 8:31-32)

So many Bible verses flowed in as I prayed for you. So I have compiled them into one message below, with the scripture references at the end. This thought came through strong: Finish your race. Be intentional. Reset your focus. Run to win.

May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. The LORD makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him.  Have compassion on your servants. Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days. Make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us, for as many years as we have seen trouble. May your deeds be shown to your servants, your splendor to their children. May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us and establish the work of our hands for us – yes, establish the work of our hands. Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. I remain confident of this, I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Amen.

From N.B.

Intercessor, editor, overseer of mailings:

As I prayed for you who have loved ones who have not embraced Christ, I was reminded that we must fight for them in the Spirit.  Remember that our struggle is not against flesh and blood (Ephesians 6:12), so be sure you are fighting our spiritual enemy, and not your loved one!

The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God…. For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ. (2 Corinthians 4:4,6)

May we trust in God’s ability to do what is merciful and right in the lives of those we love. We can count on His faithfulness, no matter what we see in the natural. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:17-18)

From R.R.

Troubleshooter, detail manager, encourager:

Here’s the impressions that came to me while I was praying for you: Press in  – your Father desires to provide the wisdom that you seek. If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you (James 1:5) Your courage in ministry and your heart for truth and revival pleases Him. Your hunger for peace and restoration is from His Spirit, keep pursuing peace as much as it depends on you. (Romans 8:12)

From N.M.

Web and media designer, devoted disciple:

It was a joy to pray over your requests, I asked for: Burdens to be LIFTED, and for His blessing to be released over each of your concerns. For health to be restored and for God’s delivering care. For comfort and restoration over marriages. And stronger understanding in communications.

 As I kept praying, these words came through strong: clarity, restore, reveal. “Lord, provide clarity for those seeking answers. Restore the hearts in need of restoration. Reveal your will for those seeking specifics.”
