I have been praying a lot for these two friends of mine lately, but they have "big" requests here so I was wondering if it is possible for you to maybe like, post these on the discussion board or use some other resource to spread the word and get a lot of believers praying faithfully for them!
The first is my friend E... She is a 22 year old student at ... college. She is beautiful, funny, and intelligent. Earlier this month one of her friends gave me the following information with the intention that I pray for E… - thus my information is second hand. Well, a couple of weeks ago E… awoke to find that she had lost peripheral vision in her right eye. After getting extensive tests, doctors found that she has what looks like a tumor on the nerve of her right eye. Although the final tests are not yet in, doctors think it is the onset of Multiple Sclerosis. Her family has a history of MS as well. My heart breaks when I think that this young woman, about to graduate will be struck down by MS possibly within 8 years.
My second friend is named A... She is also a 22 year old senior at …, also soon to be graduating. She is one of the sweetest, most selfless people I have ever met. As an RA she was dearly loved. A… came to me earlier this semester and told me that she was worried that she had skin cancer. Some strange moles had appeared on her back in the last couple of months. She did some research online and she thinks she has melanoma. She is scared to tell any of her roommates because "she doesn't want them to worry." I have been praying continually for her emotional strength and also for the healing of her body.
I believe that God can and does perform miracles on earth today, when prayers are prayed by people with faith! Thanks so much for hearing these requests.

I ask that even during this busy time, as they move toward graduation, that you will draw them into your presence. Help them to abide in you Lord. Refresh their spirits Lord, and increase their faith. I ask that even in the midst of all stress this last month of school brings that you will bring them into the peace that passes understanding. I pray that by the power of your spirit, they can pray in faith, and have the strength the lay their burdens at your feet. Multiple the work of their hands Father, so that they have time to be with you. Continue to raise up the saints to minister your comfort, and spirit to them. Father you said that our enemy is like a raging lion seeking those he may devour. Just like a predators on the plains of Africa, this “lion” preys on our young all too often. Put a hedge of protection around these young women Lord. I believe that sickness and death are not your will Father. You bring life. Abundantly. So I pray your will Lord, that their spirits will be strong during this time of trial, and that their bodies will be healed. And most especially Lord, I pray that they will see your hand in it, that they will feel your love, know your touch, and give you the glory. Let your work in their lives be a testament to all those around them of your love, your power, and your faithfulness, and your victory over the darkness in this world. Amen.
I thank you Father for the fellowship of the believers and the power you have given them to pray your will into reality. I thank you for the prayer warriors who are willing to stand in the gap, and pray for these young women, in their time of need.

A.. has been into a clinic, which is a praise report in itself, but she is not talking about it. I pray that she is at least sharing with her family.
E... found out that she does not have MS. Her peripheral vision loss is being caused by a benign cyst on her retina. Due to the location of the cyst, it is inoperable which means that her peripheral vision is most likely a permanent loss. But it is still good news indeed that she doesn't have MS.
Thanks again, blessings, -S | | Back to Top | | |
