Prayer Requests from Dorothy

This is from Dorothy. Please lift up Dorothy and her entire family at this time for healing and management of serious medical issues, and also her friend and family for their tragic loss and for recovery of their surviving newborn. Thank you so much for adding her requests to your prayers and may God bless you and your families & also your intentions and needs, Teri & Michael (see below)
Dearest Michael,

You truly are Michael, the archangel, defending us in (prayer) battles, and living up to your name :)

Two major prayer requests

  1. my brother has recently discovered a life threatening genetic heart condition in our family (hypertrophic cardiac myopathy – it's a bad one).   My two brothers both have it, my sister and I do not (a HUGE praise report for that).   We may however be carriers.   I – and our daughter – will both be genetically tested further at some point soon.  

Please pray first, for my brother Billy, who will need open heart surgery some time in October (he is 41), and may need additional surgery beyond.   He is a doctor, he is struggling with being ill, and he needs prayers.   He does believe in prayer (I am certain) but has a tough time with illness.   Now he is facing his own.  

Please also pray that this condition manifests itself in no further way in my family.   Let us not pass on this condition to any future generations.

2.  a dear friend of ours just let us know that he and his wife delivered via emergency c-section, a set of twin girls, born at 29 weeks on Sept 1.   One of the twins has since just passed away.    Please pray hard for himself and his wife, for their family (they have a little boy, age 6) and for the surviving twin, who is still in the NICU.   They are big believers in prayer, and have asked for prayers to flow their way.   

Please keep these special requests in your hearts, and thank you, Michael for being our archangel.  

Much love
Dorothy
 

PRAYER FOR MIRACLES & HEALING

Heavenly Father, I trust in Your great love for me and all Your people. I ask You to unleash a wave of miracles and healing throughout Your church through the prayers of Your people. Touch the sick and the suffering, and restore them to wholeness and well­-being. Lord Jesus, I ask for the grace to pray with expectant faith for my brothers and sisters who are hurting and in need of Your healing touch. Holy Spirit, open my eyes to see the kingdom of God all around me. Help me to recognize Your presence and Your work in the people I meet, and to be responsive to people I encounter that are in need of prayer.  In the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

In Loving Memory
Almighty God, through the death of Your Son on the cross, You have overcome death for us. Through his burial and resurrection from the dead You have made the grave a holy place and restored us to eternal life. We pray for those who died believing in Jesus and are buried with him in the hope of rising again. God of the living and the dead, may those who faithfully believed in You on earth praise You forever in the joy of heaven. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
