Prayer For Healing....Cancer

I learned that a friend of mine recently was diagnosed with ovarian and colon cancer.  She  has had 3 surgeries and is starting Chemo therapy this week.  The cancer is every where and the prognosis is not good.  Please.... everyone pray for the doctors and for the health care professionals treating her and for her body to be able to handle the aggressive treatment she is to undergo.  For her family to continue to support and for them to be supported.  I must confess, these are times when God's plan seems so cruel and confusing to me; I feel so small and insufficient.  Such a wonderful person and family; such an ugly disease.

Pray with me for Sherri and for everyone battling this horrible disease, their families and those connected to them....

One of the names of Our Mighty God is "Jehovah Rapha". Our dear LORD God that heals us. Cancer roots dry at the command of our Almighty God, "Jehovah Rapha". It's cells will stop spreading at the command of God. His Word will restore health to those suffering and to Sherri.  "Therefore God has exalted Him to the highest place and gave Him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord to the Glory of God the Father” Philippians 2:9-10. Healing can be attained by trusting in Your Wonderful name. We pray for all those undertaking "Chemo" therapy the use of medication or other drugs to treat the disease that the Lord will work out His prefect will in their situation and bring about healing. We ask that The Great Physician will heal all those that have undergone surgery and radiation therapy and that the fire of God will destroy all the cancer cells. We speak peace to all the patients and ask the healing virtue of Our Lord God will flow through every vein, tissue, cell, ligament and that healing will manifest. We believe that God's desire is manifest in their life. His desire is written in “Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along” 3 John 2 . We speak peace to all the families experiencing cancer in their everyday lives and for the  cancer patients. We speak uncommon provisions to cater for all the expenses needed to take care of the patients. We destroy every generational curses and declare that they will not continue but the blessings of God will overshadow each and every one of you. We are in agreement with God's word in Jeremiah 30:17 “ But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds declares the LORD.” So be it, in Jesus Name. Amen.

God's Ways...Trust IT!

     Did you know a lack of understanding of how God does things can wear you out?  If you don't understand His ways, you could end up fighting and resisting things, thinking they are an attack from the devil, when in reality they are an attempt by the Lord to work something good in your life.
    We know God does not do bad things.  But sometimes we fail to realize that everything that feels bad is not necessarily bad for us.  Reminding our self that His ways are not our ways will help us trust Him even when our circumstances are hard to understand.  So at the close of your busy day, put yourself in the hands of almighty God...and rest in the knowledge that He is good and knows what's best.

    Father God, In Jesus name, we thank You for Your will in our lives.  Please forgive us when we fall short and resist.  As we learn and continue to grow we will remind ourselves through You all things are possible and all things are for our good.  We love and trust Your way...Amen!

Isaiah 55:8-9 (NIV)

  “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
   neither are your ways my ways,”
            declares the LORD.
 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
   so are my ways higher than your ways
   and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Pray for Japan......

   The news has been on at our house constantly MSNBC, CNN, mostly or where ever footage of any latest news of Japan.  My hubby's extended family is from a Fukuoka, Japan.  It is on the southwest side of Japan.  Although the earthquake and Tsunami hit the Northeast side of Japan this really hit home with us.  The latest I heard as I walked out to leave for work was "100s of bodies washing up on shore", I gasped.  Those words rang in my ears all the way to work.  Fukushima and surrounding communities are not only having the challenges of aftershocks, complete destruction, missing, injured and death.  I cannot imagine loved ones washing up on the shore; I am so devastatingly speechless and saddened.  Arrive at work and saw that a second explosion at the nuclear power plant, now they are facing a possible nuclear disaster.  As bad as Chernobyl?!

I prayed....

“Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.” 1 Peter 5:6-10 (NKJV)

    O Gracious Father,  ....I know and trust that You are with these survivors and that You will guide the rescuers and volunteers.  Give them strength, stamina, courage and grace to deal with all that they will uncover or discover.  Father, give them words and the wisdom to protect their people from the radiation.  Dear Lord, break the barriers of pride, so they can be honest and accept help.  Open the door for full disclosure and transparency in the condition and stability of the nuclear reactors and radiation that may or is a health threat.  Continue to bless this country with aid and the strength and resources to recover and healing.  In Jesus' name...Amen!

With Love...Prayer of Intercession

Father God, in the power of the Holy Spirit, I pray in intercession for healing the sick and the injured.  Ask that you renew their bodies and their spirits.  Deliver them from destruction of the enemy who wishes to break Your children physically.  Restore their health and bodies.  And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven.  Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. James 5:15-16 Father God, there are troubled hearts that have forgotten Your way.  The enemy is trying to discourage and lie to give doubt in their advancement.  Our brothers and sisters spiritual warfare is bringing them weakness and darkness, I declare strength and protection through the Holy Spirit our beloved brothers and sisters will be delivered.     The salvation of the righteous comes from the LORD; he is their stronghold in time of trouble.  The LORD helps them and delivers them; he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
 because they take refuge in him. Psalm 37:39-40 (NIV) In His glorious name, Christ Jesus……Amen!!
