Prayer Requests for Sept 4

I am wondering how many of you feel somewhat as I do after this past week?! It truly has been an emotional week in many ways! As Christian women, I believe our “grids” have been tested vigorously. I have experienced many of the emotions expressed in this verse. And yet our hope is in the fact that though we have been troubled, perplexed, maybe even persecuted in our emotions, yet we do not have to be in despair, nor are we distressed or cast down and certainly not destroyed! And above all, remember that the power is of God and we are not facing these issues alone! We serve the God of the Universe and HE IS IN CONTROL! Let’s claim victory and trust Him to settle the accounts and determine the outcome.

1. Praise the Lord that the hurricane was not as bad as it could have been and there was no direct loss of life! Praise the Lord that the levies held! Pray that God will get the credit for that!

2. Pray for the safety of those who live on the East Coast waiting for the other storms to arrive. May God receive the glory for this magnificent show of His power!

3. Praise for the testimonies and the seeds that were planted at the convention in St. Paul! God can use His Word wherever it is spoken.

4. Pray for the honor of God’s name through all of the controversy surrounding Mrs. Palin and her family.

5. Pray for each of us as we respond to all that is up for grabs right now that strikes at the very core of who we are as Christian women.

6. Once again, I remind all of us to pray that Truth will prevail
