I loved your story on the bed
…because I have recently acquired “princess” beds for myself and my two daughters 
Praise the Lord, and I thank Him…when I moved to the Great Lakes area there had been a drought of 10 years. I prayed believing (just me) that He would fill up the lakes. Against all scientific weather forecasts He filled them up in one year! Only one of my friends knew I was “doing this” through God, and she, not a believer–more a new-ager (anything goes). So I wanted to tell everyone how good God is for the little and big things.
Tomorrow I turn 52: pray for quickening of this body, requesting a lightness, and a flat belly, a smoothness, resilience and beauty in preparation for marriage as I have just prayed with my daughters for a particular man to be my husband. In the natural he’s been in my life since 6 months after I was saved when I walked into a church for the first time in about 30 years (apparently he showed up to that church for the first time on that same day, as well…everybody kept asking me “Do you know Jake?”). We like each other, have been out as friends many times, and I helped him get an “A” when he was studying a new course in nursing. And he helped me make the big move from the west coast to the Great Lakes, near Niagara Falls). We are in touch although he is on the other side of the country, I came home almost two years ago (his family is out here, too). All these years (5) I have not prayed about this, except generally, but suddenly today my children said I should marry him. If I ever spoke of marrying they shut me down, because their father and I were separated, then divorced, these past dozen years.
Pray for my unbelief that it is even possible, though I am fairly young looking he is nine years younger, so I am scandalized.
Thank you,
Cathy
Thank you for sharing Cathy – what an encouragement! God is good!
I will be in prayer for you and you already know God is a big god and He can open your heart and have the right mate come into your life that will give you a successful and victorious marriage and family in Jesus’ name!
I have been divorced almost 12 years now too, and understand where you are coming from. So I am happy to stand in faith with you on this one. :0) God bless you, your daughers and your future husband – Brenda
Been a Christian a long time. Husband emotionally and verbally abused me. Divorced 11 years and have never remarrried. He did within a year. When my only child was 16 he convinced him to move in with them leaving me alone. It’s almost like he put a curse on me that I would never prosper of remarry. When we were married he so much verbally and emotionally abused me and said I would die alone. He stayed out all night with this woman and she was married also to someone else. He said he did not want any more kids said he hated kids had to convince him to have one and then he steals him from me. why is God blessing them and not me. I try to do right. I give. I still care for my son. Why does God bless those that do so wrong and not me. I don’t understand it.
I feel for your situation! I to have been saved and walking with the Lord for many years, divorced 7 now and was married to a man that sounds like the same one you were married too! Ha! He went to church with me but his heart was not into it I suppose. He was abusive also and used his $$$ & “power” (influence over my children) and they to left me alone and went after him and his ways and his money. The Bible tells us when we’ve done ALL TO STAND, still STAND. I have and have never regretted it. Although the Lord has brought no one special into my life, I have a stronger relationship with Him, understand Him and His ways far better than I ever would have if everything in my life had been “just lovely” I suppose but I know, I know He didn’t want this for me nor does He want that for you! My ex now has lost the job he had, the kids still “worship” Him and his stronghold over them:( I do not blame the Lord for bringing anyone into my life. Reasons being is we the abused have our issues from years of the abuse and the Lord has nothing to do with that but to help to heal our broken hearts which He continues to do for me and will for you too. His heart has been broken also so therefore He knows. Your life is worth living regardless of a “special” man, regardless of your children. There are many happy singles in the world who have never had these things (marriage or children, the Apostle Paul was one also) so they are a testament to the fact we can lead great lives regardless of these losses. The happiness articles the owner of this website has are great helps. Focusing on what we do have instead of what we’ve lost helps. Deciding to be happy anyways in spite of it all, knowing we are loved by such a beautiful God helps daily and I pray now for you and all the other abused out there that all the negative programming that we have heard for years from our abusers that have destroyed our hopes and dreams of a great future will be cast out of our lives forever in the name of Jesus! God bless you and KNOW, know, know, there are others facing the same sorry lot in life and trying to go on and be happy and thankful anyways.
Sherry – Know that your situation may be bigger than you, but God is bigger than your situation, keep faith in God!
I’m sorry for your pain. I can relate to your situation in many ways.
I pray that God will heal the hurt you have experienced and open your heart to receive love from Him and others. May you be released from anything that is holding you back from reaching your full potential and purpose in life. As you open your heart and move past hurts, may God bless you like never before, in Jesus Name. Amen.
People can prosper by following natural laws, but without God, it does not satisfy and there is no true prosperity and no peace.
Start speaking and confessing God’s Word out loud over your life daily and you will see change! A couple suggestions to begin with:
I let the peace of God rule in my heart, I give Him thanks, and I refuse to worry about anything.(Col 3:15)
I shall LIVE and NOT die to declare the works of the Lord! (Psalm 118:17)
God loves you, God bless you – Brenda
Praise the Lord for healing. 15 months ago I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma- stage 4. After 4 chemo treatments plus faith & prayer I was given a PET scan which did not detect any cancer cells in my body and I did not have any side effects from the chemo other than losing my hair. I received two more chemo treatments and the Dr. gave me a clean bill of health.
Now I need a break through in the financial area. My desire is to own no man anything except love:Romans 13:8 Please agree with me in prayer for hand of our God to perform a miracle in the area.
May you prosper and be in health is my stronghold.
Blessings – Phil
Praise God for your healing, Phil! Thank you for sharing and what an encouraging testimony – I am so happy for you!
I will pray in agreement with you for your financial breakthrough and that God gives you the wisdom to make wise choices over all your financial matters.
May you be blessed to be a blessing –
Brenda
I simply love your website: so upbeat and positive:
I have two prayer requests
1 My son Luke is very talented at football, his God givin talent has been so good to him up until, he informed me he doesn’t feel like playing anymore. If this is Gods will then so be it, but the talent is going to waste. pray for Luke to understand what god wants for him. he’s 15 yrs old.
2. Please pray for my prosperity quest, and for me to remain positive and upbeat about my relationship with Christ
thanks so much
Doug
I will be in prayer for you and your son. We know how challenging 15 is, and I’ve experienced how challenging it can be to parent a 15 year old…
May God give you both the wisdom and understanding you are asking for and strengthen your relationship with each other and with God.
God says if you lack wisdom to ask Him and He’ll give it generously. (James 1:5) And God is not the author of confusion, but peace. (1 Cor. 14:33) His Word also says you are more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus. (Rom 9:37)
Thanks for your compliments on the website, Doug – and God bless you!
Brenda

May GOD’s Hand be on You –
and Keep You from evil!
(1 Chronicles 4:10)
I have had a difficult two years, and this character-building stuff is wearing me down. My husband’s and my once-successful business has been hugely affected by the dismal economy over the last few years, and I just pulled the last of our savings to get through this month. And I’ve been stress-eating…and have gained 40 pounds in the last 3 years.
The wonderful thing is that my husband and I are still very close and my faith is strong.
I know God wants me to prosper and be in good health. I ask for prayers of courage and strength, guidance and wisdom, prosperity and blessings — and in turn that I be a source of blessings to others.
Thank you so much for your podcasts and this web site. I love starting my mornings with you.
May God honor your commitment to stand faithful to Him and each other, even in the midst of trouble and I pray that He delivers you quickly!
“No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgement you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, says the LORD.” – Isaiah 54:17
It is your heritage, your right, to walk in victory. When the enemy shall rise up against you, he will NOT prevail – for the LORD your God has spoken it. All God wants you to do is to believe the integrity of His Word. He will see you out of trouble. Do not allow yourself to get overwhelmed and start talking the problem.
Just Stand On The Word! People may not be able to help you, but God can bring you out.
(And thank you for your kind comments and encouragment!)
