God has called us to love one another. This is such an important part of our relationship with God that He says loving one another will be the mark of His disciples. One of the most significant ways we can to this is to pray for one another. The Following are just a few of the scriptures prompting us to love one another:
- John 13:34
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. - John 13:35
By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” - Romans 12:10
Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. - Romans 13:8
Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for he who loves his fellowman has fulfilled the law. - Galatians 5:13
You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature ; rather, serve one another in love. - Ephesians 4:2
Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. - Hebrews 10:24
And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. - 1 Peter 1:22
Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from the heart. - 1 Peter 3:8
Finally, all of you, live in harmony with one another; be sympathetic, love as brothers, be compassionate and humble.
As you can see, loving and caring for one another is so important to God! He loves us, and we are His hands and feet, so it is our job to show His love to one another.
So many of us are hurting. So many of us need love. So many of us need prayer; It is our job as a body of Christ to be there for each other, and to pray for one another. So my hope for this post is to create a place for us as a body, to help each other through prayer (James 5:16):
- If you are in need, let us all know. Leave your name (or leave anonymous) and your prayer request in the comment form at the bottom of the page. And we will be sure to start praying for you.
- Scroll down and see who has left prayer requests, and pray for them. You could also reply to their prayer request(s) and leave them an encouraging message.
I strongly encourage anyone who is in need, to please ask for prayer. It doesn’t have to be huge, it can be anything! (maybe you have trouble devoting time to God, maybe someone close to you is in the hospital, maybe you stubbed your toe and it REALLY hurts!…Anything!). Let us deliberately be the hands and feet of Jesus in our daily lives. Let us strive to love one another.
Thank you, and God bless.

Need help and communication now. Need to make some great moves. My education and work have amounted to nothing. Trying to get real help from G-d, not just feelings.
First let us give the Lord thanks for the abundance of all things.Please pray that the Lord would deliver his people from evil men; That the Lord would preserve his people from violent men, who plan evil things in their heart and stir up wars continually. Pray against the spirit of anti Christ,false witness,terrorism hatred and violence. Please pray and intercede without ceasing that God’s will be done in the lives of the world’s leaders and for our leaders to seek God and listen to Him. Pray that they would be surrounded by godly counsel and, that our leadership would personally know God and the salvation found through faith in Jesus Christ alone. That we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. God can turn the hearts of kings. Earnestly pray that the people of America and its leaders will humble themselves and seek the Lords face and turn from their wicked ways. Pray that the Lord would hear from heaven and forgive our countries sins and heal our land. God Bless America Pray that the Lord would grant peace in America, that we may lie down and no one will make us afraid. That the Lord would remove wild beasts from the land, and that the sword will not pass through our country and that President Trump along with our leaders be filled with power, with the Spirit of the Lord, and with justice and might to declare the sins of Gods people. Please pray for revival and that the Lord would pour out his spirit on his servants, throughout the world both men and women. Pray for the peace of Israel. Gods will be done on earth as it is in heaven.In Jesus Name, Amen.

“Dear Lord, please guide this special sister during the trouble in her marriage. And her ears shall hear a word behind her saying, this is the way, walk here, when she turns to her right and when she turns to her left (see Isa. 30:21).
“Please reassure her when she sees a thousand fall on her right side and ten thousand at her left; help her to know that if she follows You, it will not happen to her (see Ps. 91:7). Hide her under your protective wings.
“Help her to find the narrow path that will lead her to life, the abundant life you have for her and for her family. Lord, I pray for a testimony that you can use for Your glory when this troubled or broken marriage is healed and restored! We will give You all the honor and the glory. Amen.” HopeAtLast.com
Please pray for my sister. She is alone after having divorced from her husband of 17 years. Her 2 sons became estranged from her. If you know my sister, you will see that she was very kind but in recent years her behavior changed and she got very angry fast. Now we understand why – recently she got diagnosed with aggressive brain cancer and which she was operated on 1 month ago. She used to be suicidal and crying often and never had any much happiness except thru her kids. Please help to pray for her. Please help to pray that she is covered with Jesus’ blood as she undergoes her chemotherapy for the next 3 months on a daily basis the doctors don’t want to say anything – please pray for her, please pray for her, I am so scared and worried. PLease pray for her for her to lead a long life so that she can touch more people with her kindness.

Prayer much needed for a friend of mine, Rhiannon, who is 14 yrs old. She has cancer and has been experiencing complications, apparently the oncologist is looking into stopping her chemo. Lots of faithful prayer needed here, i have been putting out a call for prayer to friends and family, we need as many people as we can to join us.
Just letting you all know i discovered this site just now and will be praying for all of you, no matter how long ago it all happened.
Thank you and God bless,

Please pray for us. My mother has dementia and is bed bound. I am running out of money to pay the nurse aides to help me care for her. I have no one to help me. No siblings, no family. I am alone. I have no money for a nursing home and she does not qualify for medicaid. I can’t take care of her alone. Please pray for us.
Keep praying Jessica. Communication. Don’t blame just yourself.
I need prayers please-my husband informed me he is no longer happy with me and is leaving me. I want to save our marriage and am heartbroken. Please, please pray that he has a change of heart and decides he wants to stay and work on our marriage. I am devastated that we have let this happen please pray that I get my miracle…we are discussing divorce tonight ;(
My wife left me and our kids a little over a year ago. She said if they wanted to stay with me they could. She told me she was going to come back after a couple of weeks.Then she told me she was done and wanted a divorce. I waited months talk to a lawyer for a property settlement. Then she told me she did not mean it. After a year she talks to the kids very seldom and tells me she wants a divorce and is happier without me. Called the kids for Christmas told them she would bring gifts next weekend if she had time. What to do . Give up and divorce are what. I still love her.
Please pray for my 16 yo daughter Lanie. She ran away with an older guy on Oct 10th and has not called or tried to communicate since then. We had a big fight because of her grades and her talking to this older rebellious gangster-wannabe and I ended up losing my temper. Please pray with me that God will soften her heart and that she realize I was only trying to correct her, and that she too had fault in all this. I want her home so bad. There is a big hole in my heart and my sadness and guilt won’t leave me.
thank you,
