You’ve witnessed it on the news and throughout your everyday life: the escalating division, bitterness, lies, and hatred within the US that filters out toward Israel. A tinderbox on all sides, for sure. And likely sparking more waves and rumbles—spiritually and otherwise—well after the election, even with a Republican victory.
 

Encouragement: God is with us. His promises, ironclad.
 

I will go before you and make the rough places smooth . . . I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars. –Isaiah 45:2

 

His righteousness and grace will rain down on us, carry us through, lift our hearts, calm our souls as our eyes stay fixed on Him, His Word, His ways, and as we spend precious time in His Presence, loving on Him, ministering to Him, hearing His voice.

 

Mighty King, please strengthen us as we humble ourselves before you. Encourage us, guide our prayers, refine our souls amid this global raging storm—and dismantle the age-old demonic holds surrounding us and infiltrating our cultures, media, communities, schools, governments, churches, family, and friends. May your Name arise and your enemy and his minions demolished.

 

I was asleep but my heart was awake.

A sound! My beloved is knocking!

—Song of Songs 5:2a

 

I waited expectantly, patiently for the Lord

until He reached down to me and heard my cry.

—Psalm 40:1

ANSWERED PRAYERS

 

#1. GENE’s ANSWERED PRAYER

Gene sought God for answers to his gut-related issues. His October 30’s outpatient surgery revealed a rare stone occurrence, so he’ll have meds and periodic diagnostics to keep check on things. God is lovingly watching over Gene. Thank you all for your prayer support. Please keep Gene in your prayers for protection and complete healing going forward.

J.A. asked for our prayer support—she needed God’s leading as she faithfully follows him, traveling the US. The Holy Spirit gave her a special word and it was fulfilled wonderfully! Thank you for standing in prayer for J.A. God is gracious!

 

#3. ANONYMOUS’s ANSWERED PRAYER

October 14’s SOS PRAYER ALERT was for a fellow prayer warrior-Anonymous-who underwent a cardiac procedure that day and was at Heaven’s door.

#4. CATHY ANSWERED PRAYER

A ways back we prayed for Cathy who had just discovered she had breast cancer.

It is gone! Please keep her in your prayers because on November 14 she is having a hysterectomy. Adonai, May your garment of healing surround Cathy and may your hand be on the surgeon/medical team and throughout this entire procedure, on to a complete and safe and speedy recovery. In Jesus’s Mighty Name.
 

RED ALERT: AFTERMATH OF ELECTIONS

Isaiah 45:2

I will go before you and make the rough places smooth . . . I will shatter the doors of bronze and cut through their iron bars.

In the midst of the spiritual aftermath (per this blog post’s opening), we must stand firm and serve the LORD wholeheartedly, trusting the future to Him, the King of kings who stands outside of time and sits exalted above all.

Ruler of the universe, you are radiant, majestic, beautiful. Help us lay down pride, selfishness, anxiety, faithless. Strengthen us in your truth, Word, holy ways. Have mercy on this nation and transform it to once again fully support and bless Israel and stand for righteousness in government decisions, locally, nationally, globally. Every throne must bow to Yours. Every name must surrender to Your Holy Name. As you commanded, every knee will bend and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD to the glory of God, our Father. In His Name we pray.

The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.

T.C’s surgery is almost here. She’s seeking God’s face, wanting His mighty hand to cover the surgery with medical excellence and for her complete recovery.

Abba, you know the medical need, the details, the concerns. Please spread your wings of healing and comfort over T.C. Stand guard over every facet of this surgery, over every medical team member, and over T.’s recovery. Encourage her faith and be glorified. In Yeshua’s sweet Name.

Abba, please release your presence into this delicate surgery. Protect and bless every step, down to the infinitesimal details for Shirl’s complete recovery, walking once again with strength and her mind, recall, and memory working well. And may you, precious King, get ALL the glory and honor. In Jesus’s sweet Name, the NAME above ALL names.

 

3. Michelle: New Treatment November 13

Lamentations 3:22

The steadfast love of the LORD never ceases; His mercies never come to an end.

Michelle has been battling loss of smell, nasal congestion, asthma, and increasing allergies for quite some time. Her medical team believes she’s a candidate for an injectable treatment for the nasal congestion that should calm some of the asthma as well. The first treatment is November 13 (Wednesday) at 1 pm.

Gracious Father, you alone are the answer. Apart from you, we can do nothing. Please stretch out your hand and show mercy on your daughter Michelle, helping her body to heal without experiencing side effects or other issues with this treatment.

Psalm 69:16

Hear me, O LORD; for your lovingkindness is good; turn to me according to the multitude of your tender mercies.

Recently retired, Doug was on our last prayer list. The cancerous spots on his skin are being surgically removed vs. his having chemo treatments. But the doc said the spots will probably return.

Adonai, you alone are Doug’s Redeemer, Deliverer, Strength. You’ve seen all that he has gone through, medically and the battles within. Please come and sit with your son, draw him deeper into your love and your Word. Reign in his soul, body, mind. May you place your mighty hand on his body wherever it is ill and speak life . . . transformation . . . wholeness. In Yeshua’s glorious Name.

Psalm 40:17

As for me, I am poor and needy, but the Lord takes thought for me. You are my help and my deliverer; do not delay, O my God!

Michael has had a long siege, bearing a heavy yoke of troubling health conditions and their effects on his life. He needs God’s covering, mercy, healing. And his parents seek wisdom from the Lord and a special word from Him of how to best help Michael.

El Elyon, our God Most High. Only you know the depths of despair, the struggles, Michael has faced. And only you know the weight he carries from the weariness of the battle. Father, we carry our tears as we carry Michael before you. With a word from you, he will be delivered and healed and strengthen. We pray that you would bind up the despair and demolish the stronghold the enemy has had on him physically, mentally, and spiritually. Lord we ask for your mercy upon mercy upon mercy. We also ask that you would release wisdom with understanding and speak a word of knowledge to his parents whose souls seek your voice. Please rise up from your throne and embrace Michael with your presence and your goodness. In Jesus’s mighty Name.

Matthew 5:4

Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.

Craig’s 98-year-old father recently passed away. The mourning is weighing on Craig. He’s seeking our prayer support and God’s grace to get through.

Precious Savior, only you know if Craig is a believer or if his father was. So we first pray for your peace that comes from knowing you and walking in the truth of the Gospel to overtake Craig’s life. May the beauty and the joy of your redemptive plan give him hope and a purpose as he goes forward. And may the memories of his father be dear to him and comfort him as he moves through the mourning process. To Your Glory, in Yeshua’s Name.

 

#8. Toni

Psalm 29:11

The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.

It’s official. Toni’s “affordable per income” apartment she just moved into this year has raised her rent $100. She’s seeking God’s plan for her.

Abba, your daughter Toni trusts in you and loves you. Thank you for blessing her with a Christian caregiver to come in daily to give her company and help. We ask that you would stretch the blessing over her even further to open up new resources that will easily cover the new rent. We stand on your faithfulness and your Word and your love. May your name only be glorified and lifted high in Toni’s life. In Yeshua’s Name.

And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

This caregiver with children needs a better place to live for her and her children.

Loving Father, Josie loves you and brings your ways into her work and home, to her children. Please call forth a safe and better place for them to live. The place you desire, the place where you will spiritually and financially bless and grow your daughter. We ask that it would come into perfect alignment with your will, easily and swiftly. In Yeshua’s Name.
