When I received the message from her yesterday, I was not expecting that news. Originally, the prognosis looked good, but then, things took a turn.
Breast Cancer, Daily Cup family, has come to visit a a dear ministry colleague and friend. That old familiar enemy has reared its ugly and unwelcome head again in the life of another loved one.
So today, I am believing God for healing in her body, as my prayer team and I also stand together on behalf of all those who are hurting, struggling, and dealing with tough times.
I know God is able to carry you through, despite the way it looks.
And I believe He is about to do some great things.
During prayer today, the presence of the Holy Spirit was so strong. Aside from prayers, praise went up in advance of what God is getting ready to release. He's going to do it in your life. Get prepared. Good things are on the way.
Today, on this "Thoughtful Thursdays," whether you are facing cancer or some other personal crisis, there is no problem too big or hard for God to solve.
Please join me in praying for the following individuals, in addition to all those who requested privacy, or could not have their request posted due to space and time restraints.

Grace and Peace Dianna,
I just recently lost my husband. We were married for 10 years but we dated for three years before we were married. I feel like a part of me is missing. God has truly been and still is my comforter and I know that if not for Him...I would be a basket case. I just miss my husband so much. I am also grateful that he knew the Lord. He was truly at peace when the Lord called him home. It made things a lot easier. I'm requesting prayer for strength daily. I still continue to have my moments...and I know it won't go away anytime soon, I just need prayer. Thank you.e

Please pray for my friend Makena, who is currently mourning for her
cousin, Eric who drowned in a canoeing accident. Please pray that God
gives her healing and peace. Pray for Makena to comfort her
friend who is currently going through a life crisis. Pray that God gives
her the words to say to bring them closer to His love and peace.
Pray
for Carolyn and her daughter Ebony. Ebony had everything in her car
stolen and lost her job. Pray that they continue on the Lord's path and
they recover from troubling times to do the Lords work.

My family is going through a very difficult time right now as my parents of 29 years are getting a divorce. There are many reasons for this divorce, one being infidelity, which I seem to be struggling with most because I am having feelings of anger towards my parent. I ask for the ministry's prayers for my family to find peace and for me to trust this is happening for a reason, let go and not carry this anger in my heart.

I am asking for prayers over my personal life and financial situation. I am slipping deeper into financial debt and there are major issues like home and car repairs that need to be taken care of. I am feeling more than overwhelmed and the more I try to stay balanced and prayed up, the more things keep coming.I don't want to be afraid. I want to be open to God's Word over my situation. I have no idea what to do or where to turn. I know that God is able, but am I doing something wrong that the grace he has for me always seems to miss me by a narrow margin? Please pray for my spiritual and mental health in all of this. I know HE has a plan/purpose for me to help the next person with my testimony.....but the "test" is getting really hard. Thank you all in advance. Prayers to you.

My right leg and around my ankle has been hurting very badly. I have a cyst on top of my foot which pains me daily. I have to wear special shoes for support. If it is not better in a few months, I may need surgery. Praying this is not the case. I had back surgery about 12 years ago, so the pain may be from nerve damage. I know God is still in the healing business, but I do need prayer.
Lord, You see every need. You knew Your people would be exactly where they are today long before they got here. And for every trial, trouble and setback, You have already made a way of escape. For every wound, You have already healed it and sealed it with Your word. For every obstacle, You have already overcome it by Your power. So I pray that You would allow faith to rise in Your people. Let them know You are the God who hears and answers. In Jesus' name, Amen.
If you need prayer, don't hesitate to request it. I would be honored to stand in faith with you. I know that prayer works. CLICK HERE to learn how to submit your prayer request.
