The Bible has many things to
say about prayer. The Bible teaches us to pray to God the Father
through His one and only Son Jesus Christ
(John 16:23)(1John
4:9),
to pray in the Holy Spirit
(Jude
20:1),
to pray continually
(1 Thessalonians 5:17),
that the prayers of righteous men and women are powerful and effective
(James
5:16),
to occasionally pray all night
(Luke
6:12).
Further:
Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise.
(James 5:13-14)
Prayer includes: adoration of God just for who He is, confessing our sins to God,
thanking God for His great mercy and, last, bringing our petitions
(prayer requests) to Him: requests both for other's needs (intercession)
and for our own needs. Regarding answers to prayer: You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit - fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. (John 15:16-17) and If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. (John 15:6-7) Remember this my friends: |

02.26.2007 Monday Morning "They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator — who is forever praised. Amen. Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts." Romans 1:24-26 |
Just a current reminder that we pray for
all the prayer requests that are sent to us. We have received a number of
them in the last several months. Prayer for relationships that have
been shattered by worldly pursuits and health issues are the two top
requests. The goal of the radical agenda(s) in the United States is
to turn men and boys into apologetic sissies and to break up every
marriage in America. Jesus Christ died for their sin also. As for me and my house. we will serve the Lord. Jos 24:15c |
|
|
03.20.2006 Monday morning
"Never will I leave you; never
will I forsake you." So we say with confidence, "The Lord is my helper; I
will not be afraid. What can man do to me?" |
Ray has stopped posting prayer requests to this page because of time constraints. I spend most of my ministry time now in face to face meetings with the rich and poor alike and there is not a lot of time to faithfully update this particular page. I pray for every request that we get even though I don't acknowledge each one. Also, even if you get a "Sp*m" reply to your email (because your address is not in my email address book), rest assured that I have seen and prayed for your request. Do not ever forget this one thing: If you have asked the Lord Jesus Christ to forgive your sin then He has promised, in Hebrews (left) that He will always be with you, in both good times and bad. | |

04.03.04 Saturday morning "We pray for His kingdom to come; we don't bring it in. Oh, the conceit of prayerless activity! P.T. Forsyth said our worst sin is prayerlessness because of what it says about who we really think is in charge of the church and the universe. God save us from the people who would renew the church and bring justice in the world without praying. Having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power, they are more dangerous than the wrongs they would set right. They will replace old evils with new evils, themselves." Ben Patterson, Pastor/Author |
Please Pray for: Amazing Grace Church as they bring Christ to every house in a city in Rhode Island. That God would open doors and hearts. Men of Hope as they begin (April 8, 2004) a Rhode Island Statewide prayer meeting (second Thursday of the month) for God to bring revival in the leaders of our nation, state, cities and towns (in RI) and within the hearts of RI Pastors and Churches. The mid-eastern nations surrounding Israel and the Palestinian people: that they would not see The Passion of the Christ movie in the context of anti-Semitism but rather in the Biblical light of Christ's suffering on the cross to pay the price for their disobedience to the Living God. That they would ask and receive Christ's forgiveness. For the upcoming holy week culminating in Easter. That churches would be filled with men, women and children seeking Biblical understanding of Jesus Christ. That those seeking this understanding would be led to Holy Spirit filled churches (and not counterfeits). Those recently invited to attend church: that they would attend . . . |

03.19.04 Friday morning
We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about the hardships we
suffered in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond
our ability to endure, so that we despaired even of life. Indeed, in our
hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not
rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. |
Please Pray for: Pastor Isabella and her church in Guatemala. Also for the many new churches in Guatemala that there would be at least one Bible for each church in their native Quechi language. For the many new Christians in Guatemala. For Pastor Dick from Frontlines Missions and his family (wife and children). For God to move in a mighty way in that country. For revival. For the orphanages in Guatemala. For the lame, poor, destitute, widows, children, blind, and sick. The USA and our blindness to God - especially within the church - in the midst of our monetary richness but spiritual destitution. "You quarrel and fight. You do not have, because you do not ask God. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures. You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God." James 4:2-4 |
|
|
03.03.04 Tuesday morning Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20 |
We will soon be in the remote mountains of
Central America on a mission trip to bring the good news of Jesus Christ
in practical ways. "I will go before you and will level the mountains; I will break down gates of bronze and cut through bars of iron." Isaiah 45:2 Keep us in your prayers. |

02.19.04 Thursday afternoon "When you tell them all this, they will not listen to you; when you call to them, they will not answer. Therefore say to them, 'This is the nation that has not obeyed the LORD its God or responded to correction. Truth has perished; it has vanished from their lips. . . . Jeremiah 7:27-28
|
Please pray for: Those men, women and children who asked Jesus Christ this week to forgive their sin: that each would read the Bible Book they were asked to read <Book of "John"> and that God to show them a Bible Believing Church to start attending. Our nation as God's Truth has perished in many places, especially in this election season. "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts" 2 Peter 3:3 <KJV> and "Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night." Psalms 1:1-2 <NIV> |

S. a single mother: for God's provision for her in both faith and material needs. Christian missionaries and church planters world wide. This is an incredibly busy time in ministry. The lack of regular updates on this page is one indicator. There are so many needs. Keep us (Joan and Ray) in your prayers also as we bring Hope to men, women and children searching for God's enduring and unchanging Truth: that we can be set free from our rebellion and reconciled to God by Jesus Christ, God's one and only Son, who is the Way and the Truth and the Life. |

Please pray for: Those missionaries who are dealing with sickness at the present time as well as those who are trying to raise financial support. From the Arabian Gulf: 2 year old Rhea who fell from the 4th floor of her house and is in a coma and 13 year old Merryl who met with a car accident and is also in a coma.

(World Magazine, July 5-12, 2003 issue) President George W. Bush as the media attacks everything and anything he does: that he would continue to call on the name of the Living God in the name of Jesus Christ and that God would give he and his family "the peace that passes all understanding". |

06.12.03 Thursday AM The time has now come when men and women will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They have turned their ears away from the truth and turned aside to myths. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 |
Note: Several
recent prayer requests we received were lost when Ray accidentally deleted
them prior to their being read. Please resend them so we can pray
for you. Please pray for: - A spiritual awakening across America. - Pastors and Ministers and Church leaders who are tired. - Those who are content to just sit in our churches and fail to "go and make disciples" as Jesus commanded. - Churches whose leadership and congregations do not believe (all of the) the Bible to be true and so fall under the warning of 2 Timothy 4:3 (see my paraphrase to left). - Churches whose elders call for corporate prayer and their congregations do not show up. Jesus said His Church would be a house of prayer . . . 2 Tim 4:3-4 "Do not be afraid of what they say or terrified by them, though they are a rebellious house. You must speak my words to them, whether they listen or fail to listen, for they are rebellious." Ezekiel 2:6-7 |

Have
received many requests for prayer although they have not been posted
here since December. Each one is prayed for at the time it is
received. Remember Matthew 6:8 - "your Father knows what you need before you ask
him." and,
Luke 18:6-8 "And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?"
No, he will not!
I have witnessed God moving a number of times since 12/10. He is always about His work. I try to often be about that work! Men and women who were dead in the world and then made alive in Christ through the reality of Christ raised from the dead! It is so good to receive forgiveness of our sin which so easily entangles us. Be
encouraged that God listens to the prayers of those who love Him; who
are called according to His purposes. If you are looking for God,
go
here
right now. |

for: Our "national news media" - In my life time I have never seen a time when the President of the United States went before the American people to make the case for why he should have the power to go engage another country in war (here: Iraq) and NBC, CBS and ABC elected not to broadcast his speech in Cincinnati, Ohio. Our family listened to his speech last night on the Radio instead. |

Hard to believe that this page has not been updated for over 2
months! Have been speaking to and with and praying for and with
many since the last update on 05/05. Know that we receive many
prayer requests on a weekly basis and that I pray for each one of
them. Some of you are having such difficult times with family
related issues that it breaks my heart to read your prayer
requests. If you're struggling as you read these words try to remember
that God loves you so very much and your situation grieves His
heart even more. I care for those who take time to write and
send each of you a big daddy's hug tonight in the name of Jesus Christ. Pray for Sandy who has contracted Lou Gehrig's disease. For Rick who is struggling with a broken heart. For reconciliation in Amy's marriage. For Gina-Marie and Bob and their family. For a church that is seeking the direction of the Holy Spirit. For another medium sized church that called a prayer meeting and no one showed up. For N. that he would come to the cross of Jesus Christ. For the Gospel Rescue Missions that bring the hope and power of the risen Jesus Christ to hurting men and women. Pray for the pastor (or minister) of your church - that God would keep him and his family safe. Why not send them a hand written note after you read this thanking them for their faithful service! |

isolated desperation: that God would cause them to seek
Christ in a real way for the first time: that the joy of a
personal relationship with the Living Jesus Christ would transform

overwhelming. Thanks be to God that He is mighty to save.

For K. as he currently struggles with addiction. For several men: for their wives to want to reconcile with them; for several women: for their husbands to want to reconcile with them; for the IV ministry at RISD in Providence; for M., a Muslim man seeking understanding of who Jesus really is; for a loving woman with arthritis; for M&C as they look for a new church; for Churches that preach the Bible in Truth in spite of cultural pressures to the contrary (both from without and within); for the staff, volunteers, residents and guests at the Prov. Rescue Mission. For all those single dads and moms out there struggling just to make ends meet each month: that they might ask Jesus to heal their broken marriages. For revival to break out in the churches in your neighborhood; for friends who do not have a personal and, therefore, life saving relationship with Jesus Christ. Jesus is coming back soon. Share His great love with someone you love today while there is still time . . . |

My name is Andrea and I am a single mom struggling with my son. We are both Christians but he is at that age when he is rebelling at times. I pray I will be the Mom God wants me to be. I also write Christian poetry and would like to share this with those who are struggling. GOD BLESS. JESUS LOVES YOU. |
YOU CARRY US I sometimes dream of you Lord. Holding my hand, Walking down a long, Winding road, Never leaving my side. Like a father walking With his child. Picking him up, When he falls. Telling him, " I love you." Yet, still feeling discouraged At times, Thinking I can't make it, I cry out to you, Lord. Then I hear your ever so, Gentle voice utter these words, " My child, I am here." " I will carry you home." |
| Will you pray* with us in March, 2003 for God to "Send revival to the Church and spiritual awakening to our nation so that Christ’s Great commission might be fulfilled worldwide in our generation." | ||

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you
rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find
rest for your
souls...Jesus |
