Why We Pray Together

I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people. —1 Timothy 2:1

Is anyone among you in trouble? Let them pray. Is anyone happy? Let them sing songs of praise. Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the Lord will raise them up. If they have sinned, they will be forgiven. Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. —James 5:13–16

I sensed and saw demons and evil things in my dreams and tried to stop them. Please help!

I’ve always believed in God. But I don’t know where to start with reading the bible and living a life that Jesus wants me to.

But last night I had a horrible dream. Before going to sleep, I prayed thanks and also for forgiveness for a sin.

Then when I slept, during my dream, I was surrounded by people I loved (both alive today and deceased). I was in a church and these people were trying not to become possessed but there were dark forces trying to break into the church and into my spirit. It’s like from a horror movie with doors swinging, windows breaking, horrific noises and everyone bracing themselves. The devil/demons were really focused on me and last thing I remember is trying to also keep devils from coming out of a book (as well as breaking into the church) . by also closing it and tying a ribbon around it…

Since waking, I’ve been googling what this could mean as I’m pretty shaken.

How can I become closer to God? How can I truly ask for forgiveness and make changes? I don’t know where to start.

Husband just lost his job, six kids and no income, prayers needed. 🙏🏻

My husband lost his job suddenly this week as his company went bankrupt. We were a single income family, so now there's nothing coming in. We have six kids and are headed into the holiday season. Please pray for our family, that my husband can find a new job soon and that everyone can stay healthy and injury free until we have insurance again. I know that God is good and knows us.

Prayers please

The battle between my manager and I has not ended.

They took some papers off my desk in an attempt to look overly helpful but they’ve not returned it.

Their tactic is to come across overly helpful but attack me covertly.

Please pray that any covert plans against me by my manager are bound in Jesus’ name

Job Security

Hello everyone! Please pray for my dad for job security. His general manager talked to him that a group of my dad’s people at work is politicizing him. They want to terminate him and to be honest, if this happens, our family is not financially ready.

Need help getting out of sin

Am in an unhealthy relationship and I don’t know how to get out. I live with the guys family (and him) and we just had a baby in August. We are not married and I don’t really want to be at this point, it would literally take a miracle … god changing this man completely. Anyways he wants to be sexually active and I don’t. He’s done/said too many things that make me feel weird and unsafe. The first thing I want to stop is the sex. But I don’t know if I have the courage. I just don’t want to live in sin anymore it feels wrong and it’s making it hard to hear gods voice. Plz pray

Some old health issue seems to make a comeback. I just hope that I’m overthinking and I will feel fine for a flight in a couple of days. Thanks for reading 🙏🏻

Prayers for help forgiving someone

I am having trouble forgiving someone who wronged me. They didn't mean to, and are trying to be better, but I'm still hurt and angry with them. Please pray for me, that I may be able to overcome my own anger and fear, and forgive their trespasses as God has forgiven mine.

Darkest time of my life

I’ve been addicted to drugs, homeless, walked the streets with no where to go..but none of that compares to the things I’m going through right now. Today I asked God for just one Christian friend. Please pray for me.

I became a Christian last year, I finally surrendered my life to Jesus, like truly surrendered and gave everything to God. Since then I’ve lost everyone who i cared about. Either they hate me for things I did when I was still living in addiction, they are weirded out by the changes I’ve made and my beliefs, or they hate that I won’t drink or do drugs with them. I literally have no one. I broke up with my girlfriend bc she doesn’t want to surrender as I have. She told me I’m turning into a phyco Christian and she wants to just live and enjoy life. She’s truly not a bad person, really good at heart, but the way she lives her life does not line up with my beliefs and pulls me away from god. I’m really conflicted about whether or not it was the right decision to leave. She has a son that loves me to death. I feel like I abandoned them both.

At work I’m surrounded by people who don’t know god and don’t want to. Really strange people to be honest. I work really hard and there’s a lot of long days. I still struggle to pay my bills every month.

Today I opened my Bible and read psalm 88, and every word is exactly how I feel.

Please somebody stand in the gap for me and pray that God would be merciful to me in this hard time I’m going through. I just want one person to talk to..

Prayer

Recently, something broke down (that I'd rather not mention because I'm worried), and to get it fixed or replaced, we'll have to use money that was money for something else. It seems like every time we have money for something fun, it has to be used for a repair or something comes up. There may be a chance that it can be repaired/replaced for free, or at least a discount for it. Please pray that whatever God has planned won't hurt our finances too harshly.

I ask you to pray for Fabiola Velazquez so that she may be freed from the depression she has faced for so many months. Please intercede for her with your prayers and ask the Lord that today she may be freed forever from all evil influence.

Could you please pray for my mental health ?

Hi,

I have a ADHD and I’ve been taking some medications amphétamines-based (prescribed by the doctors) for about 10 years. I’ve become addicted to it and it has caused many other mental issues. I decided to stop completely on May 2024, and now it has been 5 months but I am still not recovered and not ready to look for a job.

This is a very hard situation for me, please pray for me 🙏

Also, could you tell me what can I do on my side ? Can meditate an affirmation (prayer) in a relaxed state or should I use the rosary ?

Pray for God to give me reconciliation with my friends

A couple of months ago my best friend got in a huge fight with me. Very one sided. It was really sudden, She now acts in a very aggressive manner towards me, this has impacted me a lot as my group of friends has had to basically choose sides, which is something I never want them to do, because my hope is that God can work a reconciliation. I truly don't "feel" that It is time to move on from that particular group.

This has brought me a lot of distress, It's been very sad for me, a lot of tears have been shed.

Pray for me my brothers and sisters

Prayer for school

I feel a bit bad for asking for this. I see a lot of problems that people have that are way worse than some of my grades. But I need prayer nonetheless. I have low grades and can't get them up no matter. Asking for prayers for wisdom and dedication and just the will to become better. It might not sound like a big deal but I just don't feel like I'm doing anything right and I'm just not proud of myself. I want to feel better. Maybe this is more than just my grades, but please pray for me.

Marriage

Hi all. If you could please pray for my marriage and for communication to open between my husband and I. We have been separated for 3 months now. He has yet to file, and I know it isn’t expensive (we have no assets together). I have felt that it’s not on me to file, so I have just been praying for God to keep him from filing and for my husband to turn back to the Lord. But I don’t know anymore. There’s no communication, I’ve tried and he doesn’t respond. I just am so tired and heart broken.

Job Interview for Husband

Please pray for my husband who is going in for a job interview tomorrow! He desperately needs a new job to support us, his wife and baby, so I can go to part time time work!

He has applied for over 100+ jobs at this point and he has finally reached the in person final interview and is very excited!

My mental health has been suffering insanely- full time work, full time motherhood, full time wife, and full time keeping our house afloat. I don’t know how much longer I can take it.

Saint Joseph, provider and protector of the Holy Family, pray for us!

Not to bother people, but I'd like continued prayer please, for my health and also spiritual safety of my home, and general frustrations.

Hi all, I have been seeing doctors and getting things looked into (lumps on neck, pain and tiredness, pressure on pelvis), and also praying against paranormal-type stuff I've had since I did channelling 2 years ago. I'm experiencing some frustration that though I have people I know from church praying for me, I also have a group of friends that don't seem to care that much. It could just be my perception but I get the feeling they aren't interested or invested in my wellbeing. Please pray that God comforts me and that I feel less alone in this.
