These Petitions and Requests are in No Particular Order, though They All Seem Very Important to Me... I was told years ago I would accomplish much for Christ but not by my striving, but through the intercession of others...
1) WORK — Please pray I get the RIGHT Schedule, Section and tables that reward excellent service... I NEED to work Monday to Friday Dinners and have Sat & Sunday off to do counciling (Sat) and Church (Sun) 2 Hrs away... am in a shore community and we need clear weeks and sunny skies so people come to our restaurant... Favor with mangers, co-workers and customers... Head and not tail (Deut 28:13), so I can tithe, pay off debts and be free to serve God with no encumbrances... Not wrestling against flesh and blood (Eph 6:10-12), Grace to be an example so I can witness... I submit to God, resist the devil so he flees from off my work, life and finances and the light of God’s confidence may shine on me (Num 6:24)...
2) CAR — Running rough, stalling if I run a/c at idle, has check engine and other code problems... Please pray it is fixed quickly, the other car (the keeper) is finished so I can sell this one for a profit... Need to repay those that lent me money... May both Jim and Paul get back with facts and take action in Jesus’ Name and by Jesus’ Blood...
3) RENTAL — Please pray I can get all (air mattress / boxspring / desk / chair / lamp & bluetooth speaker) and settle in for the summer...
4) PTL AGAIN FOR DOC VISIT — went well though my script was $111 and my visit $200... Please pray for my focus to be heightened and distractions lessened...
5) PRE-MARITAL COUNSELING and CHURCH ATTENDANCE... That the pastor and wife would be healthy, have insight into the material and have a blessed marriage... I need off all day Saturday for counseling and Sunday for Church Attendance ... Please ask my scheduling manager honors this request in Jesus’ Name...
6) SAFETY and FAVOR... Safety driving, favor with government, military and law enforcment, finances to pay-off all my debts for a good conscience so I can get a passport and do missions & have some savings plan — I am middle-aged and have nothing earthly for any retirement as of yet...
7) CHECK FROM LAST EMPLOYER NEEDED BADLY — Have to make my Government payments and need that check — it’s $600-800 or more... Pray all blockage be removed and God open the floodgates of heaven in Jesus’ Name...
8) DIET & EXERCISE... Grace to get to gym, heal injuries, get back in shape and not over-train... Much healthier diet so God can satisfy me with a long life and let me behold His salvation (Ps 91)...
9) PROTECTION for MYSELF, FAMILY MEMBERS, FRIENDS & PRAYER PARTNERS... Safety Driving, favor with government, military and law enforcment, finances to pay my debts for a good conscience and to have some savings plan — I am middle-aged and have nothing earthly for any retirement... Safety and blessing on my descendants, their mom and step-dad, our relatives, my mother, father, his girlfriend, my siblings and my friends and prayer partners as well... Salvation and grace to strengthen the families for all I listed above... Strong, healthy conversations and relationships between us all — “A Mighty Fortress is Our God”...
10) Time with God in prayer and Bible, clear leading, direction and protection in Jesus’ Name... Thank you!
