PLEASE PRAY

I know that you so many of you are are, but I am now asking for Intercessory Prayer Warriors for my husband at this moment.  I am asking that those that are able to storm the gates of heaven on behalf of Russell with me.  In this I ask that you speak only life over him for the Bible says in Proverbs 18:21 "The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit."   Also pray for him to have the strength to fight to live.  I truly believe that NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH GOD, and we need to bring our cause before the throne and speak health and healing on this side of heaven.  I do not want to see this from MAN'S perspective, because I believe in a God that is much greater. We are only the clay and He is the potter!!

I am so sorry the earthly loss you and your boys are experiencing. May the God of all grace, comfort and help be everpresent in your lives in the coming days, weeks and months.

Psalms 125:2 - "As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds His people, both now and forever."

Julie- I am so sorry to hear about Russ. May he have peace and pain-free days in the presence of the Father. Praying for peace and comfort for you and the boys!

God is Able!
Look at the women with the issue of Blood - God is Able. Look at the blind man - God is able. Look at Lazarus - God is able - Look at Jairus daughter - God is able. Look at us, sinners saved by his amazing grace - God is able. Hold on to The God who can heal.

[Antia Aurit]

Julie,
I am continuing to pray for you and Russ and the boys. II thoght of you when I read the Davi's charge to his son Solomom in Palm 27, " The Lord is my light and my salvation—so why should I be afraid? The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble? When evil people come to devour me, when my enemies and foes attack me,they will stumble and fall. Though a mighty army surrounds me, my heart will not be afraid. Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident." Be confident in the Lord and never let the enemy try to tell you that your faith or God's power is determined by your circumstace!

[janine]

praying for you and your family!

[Nadia]

Still praying for you and declaring that he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world, His name is above all names including cancer! It is God's will to heal Russ, have no doubt about that. It says in the Bible that Jesus healed them ALL not some but all. And we know that by Jesus stripes Russ is healed! I look forward to reading your testimony after this, remember, you have the victory through Chirst Jesus!
Much love,
Nadia

[Bren]

Oh Lord in Heaven, I beseech you now for healing for Russ. We selfishly pray for earthly healing Lord. Knowing in all things, your timing is often not the same as ours, we beg that Russ' life here on earth may continue. Let him continue to live a life that shines for you Jesus. Please be with Julie and the boys right now. Comfort them, wrap them in your love. Bring Your warmth and light to that hospital room right now Jesus, give that family the peace that passeth all understanding, for we know that all things work for the good of those who love you, and we do. In our Father's precious name. Amen

May The Lord almighty take away the pain and grant his life to Your Dear Husband - grant you strength to help him flight this evil and regain his life!! Thinking of you and your family and sending you all the strength to carry on! Hugs always! G

[tonilea]

You and Russ and your boys are in my thoughts and prayers. You seem so strong and I know you have to be strong for Russ and the boys, but just remember to take the time YOU need to feel the arms of God holding you. Your strong faith will bring you through this but you need to take care of yourself too. When adversity strikes, we as women tend to face it head on and try to shield everyone else, but we don't accept our own humanity. We are not as strong as we try to make people think we are. Embrace your pain, your suffering, and your fears. Accept them, pray over them and CRY over them. Then move on and be there for everyone else.
hugs and prayers
