Glory to God! (Washington State) ORIGINAL PRAYER REQUEST (6/10/09): Please pray for a situation where I worked and am owed $800.00 which I really need badly to pay bills, and it looks like the company is not going to pay me---they keep putting me off, and giving me the runaround. Please pray that God turns their minds so that they pay me what they owe me. (Washington State) 6/8/09_____________________________________ Last year The Prayer

I asked for Monk
Linda to pray for me as I am/was recovering from rape which
turned my life upside down over the last few years.
Within a few weeks I came across a Catholic
priest who I spoke to in the USA who helped me immensely. I then
came across a woman in the USA who I spoke to who helped even more with
the emotions. It is incredible. I am feeling peace of mind,
joy and have hope for the future, I never believed this could really
happen. I feel so much healing has been received and
healthy in mind and soul/spirit. My head is clear and calm for the
first time in years.
Thank you so much for your prayer!
Your ministry is in my prayers.
In Christ,
God Bless,

ANSWER TO PRAYER: Dear Friends,
I placed a prayer request, a couple of days
ago, and wanted to update you on it. It was for my friend's
grandma. She really picked up on Christmas day, and the family had
a wonderful time together.
On another note the whole family found
themselves together at church on Christmas eve which is such wonderful
answered prayer.
Thank you.
Mo (Canada)
ORIGINAL PRAYER REQUEST (12/25/07): Dear Brothers,
I would like to ask prayer for my friend's mom.
Grandma is 84 years old and has just had a spleen-dectomy, her blood
platelets were down due to lupus, and a pace maker fitted. She is
now coming down with an infection. She is already weak from the
surgery and needs to heal. Can you please pray for her healing?
Can you also pray peace into this family? God is slowly drawing
them all towards a real faith in him. My friend is returning to
her first love and her son is considering going to Bible school and
witnessing to friends, and other parts of the family are returning to
church. I am hoping that God would draw this entire family to him
and that somehow Grandma's illness would be used by God to do this.
I know ultimately we need his will.
I want to thank you. I will email and let
you know how this works out.
Love and Thanks and Prayers,
Mo (Canada)
10/24/07__________________________________ About three years ago I found your website and sent in a prayer request for prayer for myself. For the previous two years I had been suffering from what I believed was an infection in my body as well as back trouble I had for many years. Within a few weeks of sending in my prayer request I received through unusual circumstances an incredible healing. Gary (Louisville, Kentucky) 8/22/07___________________________________ ORIGINAL
PRAYER REQUEST (8/18/07): This
coming Tuesday, August 21, (our Seminary in Russia) ETSM will have
a visit from the sanitation department. (Actually, the visit will take
place during Monday evening in the Ilya
negotiated further with her. She agreed to visit the seminary on
August 21, Tuesday for an inspection. As it turns out, she has enough
clout in her department and can say either “I close your building
down” or: “I will certify your building.” So
we at ETSM request for your prayers. Please pray for this Inspector.
May God turn her heart toward us so that she will not do something against
us, but rather do all the paper work the way we need for the licensing
process. 8/22/07___________________________________
Good day and may God bless you all people who
have held my wife and my marriage in prayer.
I wanted to inform you all of what happened at
the TRO court hearing at 800 this morning. My wife Tonga
requested a 1 year restraining order against me based primarily on past
sins from years ago. We are both Bible believing, and I asked for
promotion and purification so...I requested 4 months and mom to be with
our two sons for visitation, and marital
counseling.
Tonga's request was granted by the Judge in whom I see no
fault. And Tonga didn't look into my eyes, but her's have
looked better. I prayed that God's will be done, and it is.
The good news is she can request the court dissolve or amend
the TRO at any time during this year. She is also going to be
going to our church at a service I won't go to. And I am
surrendering it all to Jesus,
I may go to Israel
to serve if He lets me, but otherwise I plan on being hopeful, faithful
to her, and sober minded.
I wanted to say thank you and thank God for
each and every one of you who took time out of your schedules to answer
when I called. I am assured that God's will will be done in this.
Bless you all again, in Jesus' Name, Amen.
Your
brother in Christ,
Richard (Hawaii)
ORIGINAL PRAYER REQUEST (8/19/07): Good day and may God bless you.
I thank God for you in advance. I have
written your ministry twice now requesting prayer for my marriage to my
wife Tonga and for her. As I said she had requested a TRO
be placed against me based on sins that are long past and she knows
that. I am a pacifist and a Bible believing man of God, and am
sober now. The court date is on Monday 0800 AM Hawaii standard
Time (3 hours after Cali I think). Please intercede for us then,
and if she doesn't show up, then no TRO. I just want God's will
and His Word performed in this matter and am believing Him for the
victory already in my marriage and restoration of my household back to
me. Thank you and your ministry for your help.

Let it never,
ever be said that prayer doesn't work.
We want each of you to know that your prayers have come to this:
Tomorrow (Wednesday) morning, 9:00 AM we close on the house in
Isanti!
It has
taken 11 weeks, countless tears, concerted screaming and a huge amount
of prayer. The last ten days have been so amazing. Even down to today,
where the closing was moved from 1:30 PM to 10:30 AM to 9:00 AM.
Everything has just fallen into place as if guided by some great, unseen
hand...which, of course, it was. Then the icing on the cake; the
also oft-delayed movers are available on our schedule, and they gave
us a surprise discount!
One other thing
you should know...we went through some serious storms last night.
I was driving home from teaching a class in Roseville, and ended up
seeking cover from dime to quarter sized hail and torrential rain under
the awning of an abandoned service station. The hail was as much
as 6 inches deep in spots. We had 60 - 80 MPH wind gusts that
uprooted trees, took down power lines and two inches or more of rain in
just a couple of hours. One of the spruce trees here at our home
in Cedar was snapped off 15 feet above the ground and deposited about 12
feet away from the tree. First thing this morning I drove up to
the new house in Isanti. Everything was fine. It looks like
they/we just had a good rainfall. Just crossing the Isanti County
line, ten miles north of here, was an amazing thing. Much, much more
damage in the county that bills itself as home to the
celebration of Halloween than in the one we will be moving to.
Coincidence?

ORIGINAL PRAYER REQUEST (Posted 8/6/07): We have been
given a vision of providing a place of rest, renewal and respite
for missionaries returning from the field and providing training to new
missionaries, with the "side mission" of getting equipment to
missionaries who need it.
One of the
great things about our being part of the Knights
of Prayer is that it has, after 30 years, brought us together in
prayer; a weak area in our lives for almost 30 years. Now we pray the
evening "hours"
together almost every night. Two weeks ago we began the next step in our
commitment, and began praying at 9:00 PM (Central time) on Saturday for
the requests on the Prayer Foundation's Prayer
Chain. We have been listening to Dr.
McGee as much as possible and have also been lifting you both
and the Order up in prayer daily.
As I
said previously, we want to start a small group fellowship in the new
location, which we would like to invite other Minnesota Knights of
Prayer monks to take part in, but that is down the road a ways.
We have
found a suitable house for our ministry to missionaries and
training program, it is in the country and large enough for our living
and work, as well as to have 2-4 missionaries staying with
us. It is in the country but close enough to
church and work, where everything will fit and that we can afford.
However we have been subject to continual spiritual warfare since the
sellers, (A young couple who will be serving the Lord in China)
accepted our purchase offer, and we have yet to secure a mortgage. The
closing has been delayed TEN times, by the mortgage broker or the
lender. Yesterday we re-started with a new mortgage broker, but we
need a covering of prayer that the delays and obstacles would be past,
and this would close quickly.
...I
pray that our work and ministry as part of the Knights of Prayer
Monastic Order will be glorious to our Lord and Savior and beneficial to
missionaries from the world over. "The
Deer's Cry" is playing on the Internet radio as I finish
this up.
Pray
for the victims and families of the bridge disaster here in Minnesota,
and for the rescuers who responded to the collapse and those still
searching for bodies.
Blessings,
Monk Hans

7/24/07_____________________________________ (Praise Report) Thank you Brothers for your prayers. I asked that you would pray that I sell my house so I could move back home.

Charismatic Catholic community in Indonesia. I have seen and heard many testimonial about experience love of God and Holy Spirit, many young man and women feel love of God, in this retreat. Jesus love you all, Okky (Indonesia) 6/15/07____________________________________ Dear
Brothers at The Prayer Foundation ™, I submitted a prayer request in October, for a job...at that time I had been offered a one month job at the same place I am in right now. Well when my one month was over, I was requested to work for another month with the assurance that they could simply not afford to keep me on. Well, as the second month elapsed, a call for proposals from the WHO came in and I was encouraged by my boss to submit a proposal… ...this proposal was granted in February 2007 offering me a 3 year job on a small, challenging but rewarding area in health sciences. Yes the work I am doing is challenging but I know that God’s ways are higher than mine and His thoughts far above mine. It is the Perfect job...you see, while I was applying for jobs before...and got all these interviews which stressed me yet all those times I did not really feel I even wanted the jobs I was being interviewed for…I just wanted any job…God in all his mercy and goodness saw it fit to hold me back until a job came along which would offered emotional, intellectual (career) and material satisfaction…He Is A Good God!!! What
amazes me even more is that, this job…I was offered without even writing
an application or doing an interview…I an praying for wisdom, favor and
excellence at this job…an that all the work I do may bring glory to God.
Well…That is my praise report and I thank you for praying for me and
with me. May God bless you richly and keep you always. Original Prayer Request (11/11/06): Have just completed a PhD but have been struggling to find employment in my country due to being over-qualified...However I have absolute faith that God is turning this around. I pray and ask you to pray with me that God will open doors for me that no man can close, that He will make a way where there seems to be no way. That He will surround me with His favor as a shield for with God nothing is impossible and He will provide a good satisfying job for me in Jesus' Mighty Name. Suzanne (Uganda) 6/1/07_____________________________________ ANSWER TO PRAYER: Dear Brothers & Sisters, God has blessed me. I have gotten a new job with great pay and benefits. I will be on 90 days probation; then my insurance will kick in. It is temp. to perm., 40 hours a week. This job sounds a lot easier, even though I never have sold IT solutions, I believe God will guide me and help me through the training so that I can learn it and apply it to all my sales and be able to make the funds I need to support my family. I have gotten involved in our community, in citizens on patrol, seeking funds to assist our residents with emergencies; we even have a church service in our community center with Bible classes for everyone. Thanks, Have a wonderful Jesus day, Libbie & Faith 5/11/07____________________________________ Tuipine has regained consciousness, and had first taste of food this evening. Thank you for your faithful prayers, God bless and intensify his anointing upon you for his service. 5/7/07_____________________________________ Praise God our merciful & loving Healer. Had requested prayers for Kalifa was in coma since Saturday 28th April. Tuesday 1st May between 12am & 2am he began to recover consciousness. Wednesday he was taken from intensive care to out of danger ward. I thank God for your faithful prayers. God bless you all!
Praise God our Healer,
The God who answers prayers. Around
about 11pm last night Samoan time, our Head of State's condition changed
miraculously for the better. His condition took a turn for the worse
yesterday evening, but God is faithful, about 12pm last night a miracle
occurred, & his condition began to improve.
I know God has healed him & his healing is progressing right
now.
Thank you,
Tifitifi (Samoa)
Original Prayer Request (5/6/07): Please pray for Kalifa who was injured last Saturday, & has not recovered unconsciousness. We call upon our Lord the Healer of all Healers, by His stripes we claim his healing. Please cover his wife and 2 children. Please pray for our Head of State; because of his age, he is not able to discharge fluid easily; thus build-up of fluid. Please pray for equipment, to be installed at home, also medical care provided on home basis, so he is not having to move around and transported to and fro from hospital. He is 95, & finding it more difficult to cope with hospital surroundings. May Jehovah Rapha our Healer just touch him, and renew his strength like an eagle.The
Lord has blessed him with long life for a purpose.
It was his forefather who first received the Good News &
salvation of Jesus Christ from missionary John Williams, & so
conversion of our whole country. If it his time to go home, God's will
be done, otherwise the Lord knows our hearts.
We stand on his Word, by His stripes we are healed, & may
His healing of our Head of State be an even greater witness to our
country & all people that God is alive, & draw more souls to
his kingdom. 4/27/07_____________________________________ Hallelujah, Praise be to God for He truly answers prayers. My daughter Ida whom I requested prayers for her exam, received A+ grade. Thank you for your faithful prayers for our chaplain. Everything went off well, & God's message was swift & powerful. Thank you for your faithful prayers, Sonia whom I requested prayers for has been successful with her application. She is now the new CEO for our Tourism. May God continue to intensify his anointing upon you all as prayer warriors for our Lord Jesus Christ! Tifitifi (Samoa) 4/21/07_____________________________________ All praise to God! All the black is gone, there is only a little scarring covering about one-fifth of the original area. Thank you so much for your prayers, and especially those who joined us in fasting. Original Prayer Request (4/15/07): Please pray for our own Monk Bob, 80 years old, who has a two-inch black scab on his right hand that looks very cancerous, and for any other problems that we cannot see (he is one of those people who will not go to a Doctor). We will be fasting about this matter this week, and invite any others worldwide who would like to join us in this for one or more days. 3/21/07_____________________________________ Prayer was

understand how he got better so quickly, I do. Thank you Jesus. Original Prayer Request (3/20/07): My Grandson is in the hospital

seem to be responding to medication. Please pray for a full recovery
in the name of Jesus Christ. 2/2/07___________________________________ Alleluia! Praise the Lord!

Dear Prayer
Warriors,
God is truth,
and so faithful. Had requested prayers for my husband, & 3
fold ministry: high chief for family, and village, member of judiciary
commission, and chaplain for govt. prayer house.
Enemy has been
trying for past 2 yrs, ever since he was called into these roles, to
block and destroy him. Wherever God's favour is, so is Satan.
His high chief role, his inheritance, opposition came from within
family, and even when that had been resolved, evil spread to village,
but God carried him through all these trials to be finally recognized
and accepted within extended family and village.
Enemy didn't
stop there, took matter to court had to be recognized legally, although
culturally & genealogically it was his inheritance.
After much
delaying tactics, the Lord took over, and out of the blue, within the
matter of half an hour, the court rubber stamped and officially recognized
him in eyes of law as the High Chief for his family & village.
8.30am yesterday.
Last Friday was
our sponsors thank you dinner. Everything thing that could go
wrong did, and worst part was we couldn't do a thing about it, as it was
out of our control. The dinner was put on by the dept, and we just
had to accept, and trust in the Lord. God is the God of miracles,
and what may seem disaster for us, He turns into overwhelming success,
that it just blows our minds away. Monday met up with some of
sponsors, and they were very happy, said what a wonderful time they had,
it was their fellowship, meeting and talking with one another.
They didn't notice the cramped condition, and physical flaws we knew.
Praise God for loving us so much!
Sunday, service
of fasting & prayer. Although enemies always trying to catch
us out, but our God is watching over us, and turns what Satan has in
store for us, into good for his children.
Yesterday my
daughter Ida rang excited, received an A+ for her last drama
presentation. She is preparing for her final submissions, and
exams. Thank you so much for your faithful prayers, truly we could
not have got this far without your intercession, and faithful prayers.
Pray our Lord
Jesus Christ continue to intensify his anointing upon you all for His
service, and glory!

Dear Prayer Warriors,
Praise our wonderful
wonderful Lord Jesus Christ! I requested prayers for my husband
Afamasaga who is chieftain of his clan. He was banned from
village, because he stood up for one of village youths involved in
brawl. The youth was fined a very ridiculous amount. There
was no way he could possibly pay fine. Much of village laws still
practiced belongs to dark ages. My husband preached Jesus into the
council meeting in way of reforming some of these laws. Has made
many enemies since involved in village affairs.
However, your prayers
were answered, and even though he did not agree to the penalty, and ban,
but he obeyed the law. He rounded up his family, and raised the
amount for the fine. On delivering it, the council were emotional,
and thanked him for his godly wisdom, and pardoned all the chiefs
totaling 6, who had also been banned from village, some had been out for
several years, but because of Afamasaga, they received pardon. It
was truly an emotional time.
Praise, glory, and
honour be returned to our heavenly Father!
Thank you for your
faithful service for our Lord Jesus Christ!

The plan to kill
believers in Himachal Pradesh (India) if they did not reconvert to
Hinduism has been thwarted.
The date set was Sunday the 20th of
November. The only ceremony that day was church! And the
police, who had been trying to stay uninvolved, actually met with the
Hindu community (including the media!) and explained that Christian
conversion was one of choice and that the new believers had not been
coerced. They told the people that those who had been speaking against
the church were misleading them. The pastor's son said they met without
incident.
Brother Seamus (Ontario, Canada)
ORIGINAL
PRAYER REQUEST (11/18/05): Please pray for the believers in the Himachal
Pradesh region of India. A group of radical Hindus have beaten a
pastor and threatened to burn more than 60 new converts to death if they
do not re-convert to Hinduism.
This area is home to a large shrine to
the Hindu "god" Shiva, and since the tourist visits are so important to
the local economy the police are dragging their feet in becoming
involved.
Please pray for the protection of the
believers, and pray that the hearts of the attackers would be softened
to the gospel.
Thank you again for praying.

9/20/05__________________________________ The Lord healed my mother-in-law Marilyn's problem that was preventing the weight gain, so they were able to have a Gall Bladder operation, which also went successfully. The pancreatic cancer has been shrinking for months now since you have been praying for her, and is now down to the size of a walnut and not spreading. Annette (Goldendale, Washington State) ORIGINAL PRAYER REQUEST (8/24/05): Please pray for complete healing for my mother-in-law, Marilyn, who has Pancreatic Cancer and Gall Bladder problems. She had been recovering from your prayers and the Cancer shrinking when she had a Gall Bladder attack. They need to operate on this first, but cannot because her weight is too low (95 lbs.) due to the Chemo-therapy. She also has an additional problem that makes it very difficult for her to gain weight. Annette (Goldendale, Washington State) 8/05/05___________________________________
Praise God
for His faithfulness!
A short time ago I asked your to pray for
our friend Gord, who had been suddenly, unexpectedly released from his
long term job with a Christian service agency. I just learned
today that he has signed a one-year management contract with a
ministry that works with folks leaving prison. This is very much
in his heart, and it will allow him more time in direct contact with
the people he helps. Our thanks to our fellow warriors
around the world for your faithfulness in prayer.
Brother
Seamus (Ontario,
