Let's do things decently and in order and be peaceable. Matthew 6:9-13 is how I pray. I assume the guys who followed the controversial prayer thread to here are in agreement with that.

It's been a long, strange trip these past years since Lyme. I went from a successful screenwriter in NYC to a minister in a small town in Georgia. I have seen hundreds of miracle healings. Yet, I relapsed. Bad!!! Guess the Devil got steamed or something.
Well, I don't know who's a believer or what, but we've probably got some seious numbers on this site. Let's just petition God together and see what happens. I know He hears us!!!!!

A long strange trip would be putting it mildly for me lol more like a never ending torturous nightmare, but God always knows best. There is a time for every thing, and I have learned much through this ordeal.
AND NO THIS SHOULDNT BE IN GENERAL SUPPORT!

God is the great physician and there is no better medicine than prayer.
I have been petitioning God for all of you and will continue to do so in agreement with you all, every little bit helps.

May The Lord Make His Face Shine Upon You And Give You ALL Peace!

I'm with you, too.
In addition to the individual prayers, I think we should have one special time for everyone to pray together - like 12 noon.

Never underestimate the Power of Prayer.

Wonderfully Awesome that so much faith is represented and power of prayer requested!
Where would hope be without God's loving promises to hear & answer our petitions.....
"Life is hard, but God is Good"
I will committ to praying for the Lyme community,doctors,research,individuals on this site. I'm still awaiting test results from WB to determine whether Lyme is involved in Fibro. history. Whether or not I'm positive, I have a sister,neice & nephew dealing with Lyme infection. Lots of reasons to call upon the name of the Lord. Lyme if nothing else, shall surely move us in dependance upon God who's in control, and your faith will be perfected, as is His will for us. Praying for better days ahead!

Okay, deep breath. If you guys have some bread and grapejuice laying around, i do believe in taking Communion while praying for Healing. If you don't believe that God can heal, then He won't. I always tell non-believers to give it a shot. He likes to surprise them! He is awesome.
Lord, I thank you that there is no distance in the spirit. My Brothers and Sisters here are hurting. They cry out to you. Your Word says that You hear us always and I thank you for that. I thank you for Your Promises, lord. Where two or more are gathered, there You are. So, welcome. Welcome to our little church service on lymenet. I lift up all my brothers and sisters here on Lyme net. I lift up Krazykat, Robin,Choc,Starr, BarelyBreath,Bjg,TreePatrol,Green Darknes,Cbb,Brenda,Weeza3, Rd and every single person who is attached to this support group. They are believers. they are seekers. they are your children. They ask for all the good things that come from you, Father of Lights.

Lord, search our hearts. Your Word says a curse causeless doesn't come. But, Lyme really seems like we were in the wrong place at the wrong time. I don't have the discernemnt to know why spiritually lyme has fallen upon us. We ask. Please, give us knowledge. Like in Nehimiah's time, we collectivelly repent for the sins of our families, towns and countries. We repent for the bitterness we have towards the doctors and politicans who have made this disease so hard to treat. We repent for the bitterness against friends and family who thought we were making this up. We repent to any bitterness towards you God. Search our hearts, Lord, and give us hearts of forgivess. We confess our sins one to another so we may be healed! If there are any blocks to healing, let us know. We want to change. We want fellowship with you! We seek your face, not only your hands right now.

Lord, I thank you that everything is naked in your sight. Your Word is a two-edged sword that seperates! This darkness cannot hide from you. I thank you for the authority in your son's name. I thank you that Jesus said that greater things we will do. So, I humbly believe and do what He told me. In Jesus' name I take authority over every single nest of vipers -- all these spirochettes, babesia parasites, erlichia bacteria, Bartonellas, bugs, candida funguses, disbiosis and every and all co-infections. Listen, hard, NO DEADLY THING WILL HARM US. It's over. I curse you the way Jesus cursed that Fig tree. Who the Son sets free is free in need. All these infirmities must go in Jesus name. lord, please send ministering angels to escort these intellegent life forms out of our bodies. We don't want them! I command them to wither and die in jesus name. I command all toxins to gently leave our bodies. I command all pain to book it. I command all inflamation to go down in Jesus' name. I command our immune systems to rise up and have discernemnt over this enemy. I speak proper nurturing of God's food, air and water. May it all be a blessing to our bodies. Lord, we have a mustard seed of faith. Thank you, it's still enough to cast mountains in the sea. And, this plague of Lyme must go!!!!

Lord, please bless your children on this site. they need you. Please extand you hand to heal. We have turned to Man for help but we turn to you for complete healing of our bodies, spirits and minds. Some people here don't know you. That's not my job to evangelize. Love on them all, Lord. Please, draw near to those who draw near to you.

Thank you Lord for hearing us. We love you. We know that you love us. Maybe we have had some angry, unloving Fathers in our times. But, we know that you love are a God of Love. Disease comes from the enemy, not you. Teach us who you are in this time of soul searching. In Jesus name, we pray Amen.

Please, everybody in the Body of Christ is to be used. Post your prayers and yell at the devil and get down on you knees or just do something.

Thank-You hobo,I crawled through my garden today ready to give up all hope,musles too sore to stand.

I pulled boxs of veggies to my truck and just sat there and prayed to God for some help to get every thing in the truck and home.

This you all may not believe,but i did ask God to bring me a paster to come talk with me because I was ready to give up!!!I really,Really did pray hard for this in my garden.!!

I got the strenth to get myself in the house and had a strong urge to check on things here on Lymenet.And here you are!!!! Just what I asked for in the garden!!!!

I probly would have never seen this in general!! And I know God has worked through you FOR me today, and for that sir, I Thank-You very much!! your prayer today has lifted up my spirit.and maybe tomorrow will be better.
Thanks God for your help today!

Brenda

I believe the Lord will use you and these prayers to touch many hearts. I know I have been touched.

I also thank you for standing up for biblical prayer. Jesus taught us to pray and I firmly believe we should follow his teachings.

I look forward to many future posts!

God bless you and your work!
SC

His faith in God is gone....so I know that until he surrenders and cry's out to God Almighty for help he will stay in his condition....his anger is something else.

You are so gifted in your words.

I am here praying along.

Lord, we start this morning, praising you. Even when we don't feel like it. But, that afterall, is why we're here. Thank you for your grace and mercy. Thank you for the fellowship we have here. Thank you that something good is gonna happen.

Thank you for your holiness. We are trying. Give us strength in our weakness. Willpower ain't enough. Please, give us your God power.

Lord thank you for you Word which we'll try and get in daily. Thank you for your food, water and air. let it nurture us. In jesus name, may every vitamin and mineral be properly assimilated from it. In Jesus name, may every sip of Your water flush toxins out of us.

Give us forgiving hearts Lord so there will be no blocks to healing.

Keep us from the Evil one. Lord, pelase extend a hedge of protection.

Please protect our nerves and immune systems from this bug!
I speak healing to every body part. I command all infections to wither and die! Every single one. I curse every L form, cyst form and freefloating form of Lyme right now in Jesus name. I break off all forms of communications between these bacterias with the second heavens and each other. We are seated in heavenly places and you are not. In Jesus name, this spirit of infirmity has got to go.

Lord, we read the scripture "By his stripes, we are healed." Teach us how to apprporiate that.

Bless my buddies here on this site. Please, meet their needs. Please love on 'em.

Your son, Michael

I had surgery once before and had a really bad reaction to the anasteshia. So please remeber me. Thanx!

We speak a creative miracle of a new gallbladder into Sunny in jesus's name. We call all toxins out of her in jesus' name. We speaking healing from all the damages of antibiotics in Jesus' name.

Lord, please have mercy on Karen's finances. Please, meet her.

Sunny, also see www.curezone.com for the gallbladder/liver flush. It has saved many from this operation. Of course, I don't know if it will work if the gallbladder was damaged by antibiotics.

Hello Prayer Partners,
I'm looking forward to getting to know you through our prayer requests , and Hobo's beautiful intercessory prayers for all.

I am usually an optimistic person. I believe there is a reason for everything that happens..but I have been slammed with things in the pass 2 weeks.

First my oldest brother (46) had to have a steint put in his heart again, just had one eight months ago.

Then my central air brakes this was the 3rd central unit in 15 years. Well we got this great crew that redid the whole house from top to bottom and it is fine now, cost us a few grand but it works.

Then the next day the Dr.'s thought Dominic had a hairline fracture in his leg..it ended up being his lyme returning..as of Monday he is back on abx.

On Tuesday a strong gas smell in the house had me call the gas company in which they pulled my meter due to a gas leak somewhere in the pipes in my house. So we are now without hot water or a way to cook besides an electic plate. They said we were very lucky, I Thank God for keeping us safe from this one.

I prayed on Tuesday night and Wed. and have said over and over that God never gives you more then you can handle right??

Today we found out my older sister (42) has cancer of the uterus. She has to have a complete hysterotomy next week and the dr said to pray it didn't get to the lympe nodes.

I am trying to keep my postive outlook but it sure is getting hard. When is enough enough?

It is great to know we have so many praying for us. I really appreciate it.

Glad we finally have a home and inadvertently happen to be posting right after weeza3-who is dear to my heart.

I specifically pray today for the constant confusion to be lifted--I get so frustrated when someone posts info that I so want to understand. ie: A few minutes ago, came across info I have always wanted to understand about the various forms of Lyme-specific treatment, etc. It was beyond my brain to "get it" and I got so frustrated.

Also need prayer for my daughter-son and sister who have a positive Bowen for Lyme. A reoccurance for my daughter who sufferred for years and went undiagnosed for 10 years.

I pray for all of us with long-term, chronic disease who feel in a very deep and dark spot that we will never really have our lives back or may die of complications.

"FAITH AND OBEDIENCE WILL REMOVE MOUNTAINS, MOUNTAINS OF EVIL, MOUNTAINS OF DIFFICULTY. BUT THEY MUST GO HAND IN HAND". From: GOd Calling.

May we remember to live in the fruits of the spirit and count on God's grace.

Praise and more praise for this thread and love/protection for "Hobo" who has lifted us up.

Will everyone please pray for my best friend's son-age 39-who is dying of liver failure in a local hospital--or so the docs say. I brought him a small book on miracles and it has been resting on his chest for 2 days. His Mom says he reads it when he is awake. His name is Gary.

Blessings to all.

Choc.

Chocolat.....would you please email me? I know i had your email addy at one time...but....

In this study, her goal, is to plant in our minds and hearts Gods's truths and promises from The Word of God that will reinforce the following 5 statements: God is Who He says He is
God can do what He says He can do
I am who God says that I am
I can do all things through Christ
Gods Word is alive and active in me

She used an illustration of God's care and concern for "all things" that happen in our lives:

" I love the thought of GOD bringing wholeness and restoration to a life as someone would mend by stitching.

A seamstress cannnot mend a fabric she does not hold in her HANDS. Likewise, GOD cradles us in His careful hands as HE stitches our broken pieces back together again, forming a new and far more beautiful garment.

The word picture also suggests PROCESS to me. GOD has performed miraculous healing in my life. My cancers were not physical, but they were just as malignant.

Almost all the healing works GOD has accomplished in my life have been PROCESSES, stitch-by-stitch so that I would learn to appreciate being continually in HIS HANDS."

I though it interesting to learn that the Hebrew definition of healing are: raphah (raw-faw)

1) to heal, make healthful, of God, healer
physician of men, of hurts of nations involving restored favor.
2) healed of individual distresses, literal persons, personal distresses, of national defects, in order to get healed.

Interesting huh, that the scripture definition not only speaks of person healing, but also nations!

I truly believe we are on the cusp of seeing a revival of our nation turn to GOD in great numbers, and following that, healing of every kind of disease! This is the will of GOD for us!!

Beth Moore says this about the 'Church'

'The bride of Christ in our generation in nearly paralyzed by unbelief. Particularly in America! God is calling His bride to a fresh belief in our systems! We have been assigned to this world during vital days on the kingdom calender. We have dropped our sheild; therefore, we have never been more vulnerable to defeat.

God is calling His Church to draw the Sword of the Spirit ( the Word of God) and lift high the sheild of faith"

We must get in the living breathing scriptures.. I need your help in prayer for personal desire to be obedient to My God, He wants to do so much more than we can ever think or imagine, but first we must BELIEVE THAT HE IS GOD AND THAT HE CAN DO WHAT HE SAYS HE CAN DO.

beach4so, Chocolat, you will have my prayers tonight before my head hits the pillows.

God Loves you!

You are in my prayers--so much has happened since we last touched base and you gave me a head's up on Dr. C.

You have sure had a lot of lemons and your lemonaid is ABOVE. You know-that ol' thing about "when life hands you lemons---------"

How cornball can I get! But LOL on here, too, as God is said to have a sense of humor--better than mine!!!

Thinking of you as you struggle and wait for the light.

God bless You All
karen

I did alot of worring over everything yesterday. Last night when I signed on and MSN news popped up (my home page) and I saw the stuff going on in Russia I just cried.

I cried for everything if you know what I mean.

Those poor families having to deal with that... that is my worse nightmare..my children being hurt. Those children having to witness that horror and lose their lives to it.

It really put alot in perspective. I knew this pass week i haven't been in the best mood. So last night I made sure I stopped barking at my kids and husband and started hugging and saying more I love yous.

It is all material things breaking in my house and it can be fixed and my sister has hopefully caught the cancer in the first stage and has a really good dr. I have started looking at the up things that God is doing it could be alot worse.

Looking4answers is waiting for her husband to come home from iraq for a visit and I am over here ready to strangle mine. After reading her post it made me start realizing how lucky he is home everynight. And how much those men and women and families are giving up for our freedom.

I was thinking: To try and keep the peace on the lymenet site Do ya'll think we could move this to "off topic". I think we have a good group that would go to off topic to keep this tread going.. Don't Ya'll??

I just don't like people being upset over what we are doing. Stress is not good period. There are alot of politics talked about in off topic and no complaints so hopefully none will result from this thread either.

I once again ask not to confront the people who seem to taunt these posts. Remember, to be a light to them. Many if not all have been hurt by immature Christians. I wasn't fond of born agains before I got there either! Now, it's time to show them what the Love of God really means. Please, don't taunt back or try to get in the last word. We're not evangelizing, practicing apologentics or defending the faith. All we are doing is praying one for another. And, if someone happens to dig what we're doing, great, but that's not our intentions.

God it who has brought me through all these trying times. Some days I think I am going completely MAD and loosing it!

I too had started the Beth Moore study that you (Weeza) are doing. Are you wearing the blue string bracelet?

I had so many things going on I was unable to complete it. But still have the book and should get back to it some time soon. Are you able to see her videos? They are really helpful, and she has a great sense of humor.

Thank you for your prayers for all. I keep you in mine.

If you want prayer, come. If not, please, respect those who want to fellowship without a fight.
