Prayer Need September 14, 2010

This is from my sister whom I requested prayer for last month.  She had learned the benefit of our community of intercessors and is now asking for help for someone else.  For herself she reports that her blood count is slowly rising, and at last check it was 10.8.  It is my understanding that the ideal is 15.  She is taking the Procrit shots, so we look forward to hearing more good reports from my sister.

Here is the request she sent to us.

"Just had a couple in here to pick up their boat. They have an 11 year old daughter (Shyanaa) that has been diagnosed with a rare form of aggressive cancer and is being treated at Vanderbilt. Cannot remember the name of it, but it is something very rare and is usually found in foreign countries, not America. Thought this was something for the intercessors."

Thanks for praying for Shyanna.  God is still in the prayer answering business. 

Yours for intercession,
Doris

This is a request I received two of yesterday and this morning.  I know this family well, and how they are holding up watching two of their sisters in 5 months time succomb to cancer I do not know except for the Grace of Almighty God.

Please call Sue's name out to God.
Then call her sister Sarah,
Her brothers Carlton, James, Paul Green for God to give them His grace and strength in this trying time.

Here is the prayer request as it came to me.  Thanks for interceeding.

******
Please pray for Carlton's sister, Carolyn Sue Stegall. Her cancer came back a few months ago and she has been told that there was nothing the doctors could do for the cancer. A couple weeks ago she was in the hospital for other health problem. On Monday last week she had a stroke that was located in her speech part of her brain and was unable to speak. By Tuesday afternoon she was able to speak short phrases. Wednesday morning, last week, she had a larger stroke in the same area and was once again unable to speak. She was moved to the Acute Stroke Unit of North Mississippi Medical Center. Yesterday the doctors told the family that there was nothing else they can do for her and she was moved to Sanctuary Hospice House located on west side of Tupelo.


Please pray Sue and also for Carlton, his other sister and 2 other brothers. Their oldest sister went to be with the Lord in March, this year, from Melonoma Cancer. It was really hard to go in to see her yesterday. She does recognize you and reaches out and grasps your hand and holds very tight. She is still unable to speak which makes it harder at such a time as this.

Also pray for her husband, Kelly, who is suffering from Parkinson disease and for her 3 children and their families.

I know nothing is impossible with God however if he needs Sue more than we do, please pray that the family will be able to accept that and put Sue in God's hands.

Thanks so much for all your prayers. if you have a prayer chain please add Sue and her family to your prayer chain.

I will get Sue's address just in case some of you want to send cards to her and the family.

Love you all

Hello fellow Intercessors.

I talk with my youngest sister today.  I knew she has not been well, but today I think the impact of her illness finally hit me. 

She has a blood disease - or more accurately a "bone marrow failure disease".  Frankly I have never heard of this, but her marrow does not produce red blood cells.  The disease itself has a long name which I'll try to spell correctly.  "Myelodysplastic Syndrome"

So far there is no cure and only temporary fixes.  One being to get Procrit shots.  Only when she is at the point of death, will they consider a bone marrow transplant which they don't give her much hope in even living through such surgery.

After her Doctor's visit today, her blood count was 9.8 and falling each time she goes to be checked.
I told her about our prayer chain, and that I would request prayer for her. 

I'm hurting for her, and want the Lord to do a work in her body.  Nothing is too big for Him, and with the collective prayers of each of you, my sister can walk in health and spiritual wholeness. 

Please agree with me that the Lord do a miracle.  I understand miracles come through obedience.  Taking the examples of Jesus at the marriage - through obedience the best wine came forth to finish the festivities.
Then when there was no money for the Taxes to be paid, Jesus told his disciples to go fishing - they did and the fish they caught had in his mouth the amount they needed.  Oh yes, obedience goes a long way in getting what we ask of the Lord.

Thanks for praying, please tell others to help you pray.

Yours through intercession.
Doris

Please pray for Brother Don Wilson, the Mt. View Pastor.




He fell last night & broke his leg. This is the same leg he’s had 10 hip replacements on previously so he definitely needs our prayers. They are hoping to be able to set it w/o surgery.

Even though the requests have been coming in slowly, doesn't mean someone doesn't need prayer.  This came across my desk this morning, dated a couple days ago.

"Please pray for Pat, he is having some health problems. He has been battling it for a while. The last two nights it has gotten worse and he has had to sleep in a chair. I know that GOD can heal him."

Though you don't know Pat, God does.  Thanks to each of you who take time to pray for him.  God has not gone to sleep, He has not turned His head from our cries, nor a deaf ear from hearing us.  It is HIS WILL to do good to His children.

Thanks for Praying,
Your partner in Intercession, Doris

This request was just brought to my attention.  In passing it on to you I'll suggest that we call
David Washington's name out to God and be specific for him.  Pray that David feel God's presence as he sees the killer get justice.  Pray that David will learn to forgive the man so that God will take revenge on him.   Pray that David and his family find peace through the whole trial process.  Pray that God shows David how to be an advocate against violence so he can turn his hatred into energy for a good cause.
God is able to do all this and more.

Thanks - your partner in intercession,
Doris
