Battles continue to escalate around us, within us, throughout the globe–spiritually and physically. A recent article posted on Arutz Sheva (Israeli media) by an Orthodox rabbi said something that you may well have long come to realize …

 

“On the surface, battles are won with weapons and battle tactics.

Beneath the surface, they are won because our minds and tongues

were preoccupied with prayer.”

—Rabbi Lazer Gurkow, January 9, 2025 Arutz Sheva article

 

May we be vigilant throughout each day, alert prayer warriors on reconnaissance who not only recognize the situations and needs surrounding us at any given moment but turn our minds, souls, and tongues to prayer in that strategic, God-highlighted moment.

 

I was asleep but my heart was awake.

A sound! My beloved is knocking!

—Song of Songs 5:2a

To God be the glory! Continuing with her long-term immunotherapy treatments for allergies, asthma/breathing, Michelle’s sense of smell has returned far more (almost total)! Thank you, prayer warriors—she cherishes your continued prayers.

 

#3. I.B.: NEW UPDATE

God’s kindness moves our hearts! Since beginning the unique treatment for bladder cancer, I.B. has had little or no side effects! Please lift her up in prayer because this is a longer-term treatment. And as a Jew, may she come to know her Jewish Messiah, Yeshua, who loves her deeply.

 

S.O.S. PRAYER REQUESTS

 

#4. MARC

Luke 19:10

For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.

Request: Since our January 26 S.O.S. text prayer for Marc (37)—whose heart stopped after a drug overdose and who was hospitalized—he, against doctor’s orders, discharged himself from the hospital only to again be transported to ICU via ambulance. He now has pneumonia in both lungs, and his heart isn’t producing enough oxygen. With addiction taking a deeper hold, he has become quite angry, choosing to be estranged from the family who loves him.

Prayer: God’s heart cutting through the darkness. His holiness casting down strongholds. Abba, we lay Marc before you. His defiance and apparent desire to cling to the demonic stronghold caging him need your intervention. Please call to his soul, to the pit of his being, and awaken him to his spiritual and physical condition in a way that moves him so he asks you to free him. Call him to LIFE in you. And please through it all, protect the family, sheltering them on all sides from his disturbing behavior and sometimes frightening or aggressive actions. In Jesus’s mighty name.

 

#5. YESHI & FAMILY

Psalm 23:1, 3a

The Lord is my shepherd, I will not be in need . . . He restores my soul.

Request: Steve’s wife, Yeshi, is in the hospital, in grave condition, on life support with no medical intervention. They are believers and have two children.

Prayer: God’s mercies, gentle presence, and comfort. Father, all life is in your hands. Please release your Holy Spirit to bathe Yeshi in your goodness, your shalom, your healing. Wrap your arms around her, let your Word rise within her and your love and will be released. And may your comfort embrace Steve and their children in this difficult time. May they be strengthened by your Presence. In Jesus’s sweet name.

 

#6. HOSTAGES

Psalm 125:1

Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved but remains forever.

Request: There are many issues on all fronts for Zion. But this prayer focus is on the hostages: those released, to be released, remaining after the cease fire.

Prayer: God’s presence. His righteousness and deliverance. Adonai, El Shaddai, may your mercies be with each one. Meet them in the dark tunnels where they are kept, in the inhumane treatment, in the extreme lack of food or medical help, in the hopelessness. And for those released, walk with them along the long, difficult road to acclimation to “normal” life again. Soothe the emotional triggers, the PTSD, the sounds/sights that frighten them in their minds and around them. Please draw them closer so they sense your presence, find comfort in your Word, and lead them to complete and true freedom: Yeshua. In His glorious, saving name.

 

VITAL PRAYER NEEDS

#7. TONI C

Psalm 42:1

As the deer pants for the water brooks, so my soul pants for you, God.

Request: Toni, a longtime believer in Yeshua, is battling a few health issues that are not easy to deal with on a daily basis. For years, she’s had migraines, but they are now increasing to the point where it’s making her highly concerned. She also hungers to be drawn even closer to the Lord.

Prayer: God’s grace, mercy, nurturing. Mighty King, please stretch out your arm and draw Toni closer to your chest. Let her rest there, embraced by your presence, healing, love. Let her hear your heart beat for her. And may you cause these migraines to subside, give her relief from the pain and still the fears in her mind and soul. Hold your daughter throughout each day and night, singing words of comfort and deliverance. In Yeshua’s gentle, precious name.

 

#8. SHARON & SON/DOUGLAS

Psalm 120:1

I cried to the Lord in my trouble, and He answered me.

Request: Sharon’s husband recently died unexpectedly at home from a heart attack. Sharon and her son, Douglas (who is on the spectrum), need God’s presence, wisdom, comfort.

Prayer: God’s hand clearing the way. Emmanuel, God with us, spread your wings of protection over Sharon and Douglas. Ease the path for them. Please let your calming Holy Spirit rest on Douglas, dissipating the anger and outbursts. Breathe your Word of love and strength over and through Sharon, now and the challenging months ahead. In Jesus’s faithful name.

 

#9. ROGER

Psalm 118:28

You are my God, and I give thanks to You; You are my God, I exalt You.

Request: For quite some time, Roger has suffered with stomach and knee issues (hard to walk). He’s recently undergone various diagnostics to determine and address the gastric issues and another concerning matter: lumps in his arm. He needs God’s help and comfort.

Prayer: God’s grace and healing. Lord, our Great Physician, please step in and heal where others have failed. Bring forth the answers and right treatments—unless you choose to speak healing supernaturally. Sit with Roger so he knows you are with him, guiding, revealing, loving on him. And for those deep needs within him that no one can see or knows but you, please breathe deliverance and strength. Be glorified, our King. In Yeshua’s blessed name.

 

#10. ANTHONY (TONY)

Psalm 62:7-8

My salvation and my glory rest on God; the rock of my strength, my refuge is in God. Trust in Him at all times, you people. Pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us.

Request: Tony, 86, is ill with kidney issues—they’re functioning at 14%. If they go any lower, he must be put on dialysis.

Prayer: God, our hope. God, our shelter. Sweet King who sees and cares for His people, please stretch out your hand and send healing to Tony, reviving his kidneys and restoring normal function. Keep him alert, nourished, hydrated, and surrounded by those who love and care for him. May your presence bless his soul and give his restful, restorative sleep. In Jesus’s healing name.

 

#11. ARLY

Psalm 123:1

To You I have raised my eyes,You who are enthroned in the heavens!

Request: Arly has had complications from a hysterectomy and enduring much pain. She needs God’s intervention for healing.

Prayer: God’s mercy and restoration. Adonai, you and you along hold us, care for us. Please spread your merciful wings and cover Arly, releasing your healing, giving her comfort, full relief from the pain, and your voice nurturing her soul through the process. Please give her doctors understanding and guide them in medical excellence to help her. And may she come to know her Jewish Messiah and rejoice at what you’ve done to bless her. In Yeshua’s redemptive, holy name.

 

#12. MARY T.

Psalm 138:3

On the day I called, You answered me; You made me bold with strength in my soul.

Request: While working on her nursing degree and caring for her hubby and four children, Mary recently started a home care job with flexible hours. It certainly will help with concerning fiscal needs. But she needs prayer caring for the dementia patients at the facility who can become quite combative.

Prayer: God’s protection and abundant provisions. King of Heaven and all creation, thank you for blessing Mary with this job. Please continue to watch over her children, every family need, every part of her nursing studies, and every hour on the job. Surround her with angelic protection and discernment to know how to respond in each situation. Shield Mary and her family in your holiness. In the blessed name of Jesus.

 

#13. J.A.

Psalm 16:7-8a

I will bless the Lord who has advised me; Indeed, my mind instructs me in the night. I have set the Lord continually before me.

Request: God’s confirmation on certain concerns, His provision for a stable residence, and His healing of her tailbone and swelling from a slip on the ice.

Prayer: His Word and will underscored. His provisions, secured. Adonai Tzva’ot, Lord God of Hosts, thank you for watching over J.A. throughout her faith journey across the U.S. May you continue to guide her, make clear your desires, and usher in the appointed place to call home. A place to grow more, serve you more, and grow relationships. Please place your life-giving hands on her body, her tailbone area, her finances, her vehicle, her getting up and lying down. In all things, protect and provide for your glory. In Yeshua’s name that is above all names.

 

#14. L.Q.

Psalm 143:8

Let me hear Your faithfulness in the morning, for I trust in You; Teach me the way in which I should walk; for to You I lift up my soul.

Request: Changes and challenges continue to surround L.Q. She seeks God’s guidance, protection, wisdom, provisions, and favor in finding a new apartment for her and her daughter as well as favor in her new tutoring business for students on the spectrum—and His covering on the seeds of faith sown into her daughter and son.

Prayer: Smooth the waters. Clear the path amid the rapids. Blessed Redeemer, walk across the waves and hold your daughter. Lead her and teach her how to ride the rapids of life, protected in your hand, guided by your Word, and always ensconced by your love. May she and her daughter find a calm and rest within and without because of your presence and your Holy Spirit’s counsel and gentleness. Bless the work of her hands and her service to you, now and all the days of her life. In Yeshua’s gloriously beautiful name.

 

#15. MICHAEL

Psalm 16:8

I have set the Lord continually before me;
Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken.

Request: God’s hand has been on Michael, who we’ve prayed for before. He’s doing better regarding his long-term troubling health conditions and their effects on his spiritual, emotional, mental life. But more prayer support is needed.

Prayer:Full deliverance. God’s continual covering. Abba, may your Light arise and flood Michael with your hope, healing, deliverance, and Word. May healing from your throne pour over him, reviving his soul. And may every spiritual stronghold be demolished, every taunting of the enemy, silenced and removed. Lord, you are everything Michael needs. Guard him on all sides and in all ways. Fill him with your presence to overflowing. In Jesus’s majestic name.

 

#16. KARI, ANDREA, VEE, CHARLENE

Psalm 112:4

Light shines in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious, compassionate, and righteous.

Request: Each of these women are battling cancer and need God’s presence on every level—and faithful prayer support to help them make it through each day.

Prayer:God’s strength. God’s encouragement and healing breath. Holy King, who is like you? High and lifted up, Mighty. Kari’s, Andrea’s, Vee’s, and Charlene’s cancer and needs are each different, but You know them deeply. Each heartache, each moment of concern, pain, and fear. Please carry them, speak to them in special, deep ways that soothe and heal. May your name be on their lips and your healing wings wrapped sweetly and steadfastly around them 24/7. In Jesus’s blessed, wondrous name.

 

#17. SALVATION & PRODIGAL LIST!

Psalm 40:16

May all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You; may those who love your salvation continually say, “The LORD be exalted!”

PRAYER. His Deliverance. His Redemptive Gift. The Son of God. Redeemer King, as we name these people listed below, please run after them, become their hiding place, deliver them from the dark spiritual waters keeping them captive. Please remove the stubbornness, pride, and the lies from satan so they can sense your love and see and understand their need for your redemption plan and receive Jesus, our Messiah, and be saved. It’s in His Mighty, Loving Name we pray.

 

#1. B’nai Israel (Jews) in Israel and throughout the world, and those caught up in New Age/Buddhism and those not knowing or unwilling to know the truth of Yeshua.

#2. US Government Officials & Families: Salvation.

Our nation isn’t saved by politicians but by God. It isn’t favored by God because of its politicians but because of its people surrendered to, walking with, and honoring the One, True, Living God, and our Messiah, Yeshua.

President Donald Trump, VP J.D. Vance and wife Usha Vance (she’s Hindu), and all unsaved members of the new administration and the House/Senate and their families.

Sukkot, the seven-day Feast of Tabernacles, begins at sundown on Wednesday/October 16, Tishrei 15 on the Judaic calendar.

 
 

It is one of God’s mo’edim (appointed time), calling B’nei Israel to build temporary booths and reside in them (meals, study, gatherings, some sleep in them), per God’s command based on Leviticus 23:40, Deuteronomy 16:13-16, and even in the coming Millennial Kingdom, Zechariah 14:16-19 when all nations will celebrate Sukkot because the King of kings, Lord Yeshua will once again tabernacle with us—reigning over the world.

 

Whenever I’ve sat in my sukkah—a precarious, temporary booth with no roof, except for a few branches because we must see the sky above us—or visited someone else’s sukkah, my soul wells up. A holy convergence of joy and humbling. Mindful of God’s greatness, his creation and provisions surrounding me, his forgiveness mercifully shed over me time and time again.

 

The EXODUS Connection

 

Sukkot and another biblical feast day are also reminders of the Exodus: during Pesach (Passover) we re-walk the Exodus (freedom from captivity) and during Sukkot we re-walk and recall the arduous 40-year trek (where faith was tested) to freedom, to the promised land, Israel.

 

As Rabbi Greenberg put it: “Sukkot expresses the deeper Exodus—the reflective, gritty days of marching . . . Freedom came as a result of pitching tents [booths/sukkot] and taking them down over the course of 14, 600 days . . . Sukkot honors the 43,000 meals prepared on the desert trek, the cleanups, the washing of utensils.”

 

In other words, re-walking the Exodus journey (Sukkot) is about putting our faith in action. Rabbi Greenberg said it like this [red emphasis is mine]:

 

“Passover is the holiday of faith;

Sukkot is the holiday of faithfulness.”

 

1 Samuel 12:24. Only fear the Lord and serve him faithfully with all your heart—consider what great things he has done for you.

 

I was asleep but my heart was awake.

A sound! My beloved is knocking!

—Song of Songs 5:2a

1 SALVATION LIST

 
 

SPECIAL PRAISE REPORTS

 

#1 PRAISE REPORT: Bernie

Romans 15:13

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Double blessing! It started when Bernie’s hip surgery was on hold because they found blockages in her heart and that she had an enlarged heart—but later scans showed no blockages and no enlarged heart. Blessing One. Then onto Blessing Two. The October 10 hip surgery was back on. God stretched out his hand over it all. Bernie said: “Miracles never stop. I was in a Christian hospital! They had prayers over the intercom! Surgery went perfect. Thank you for the prayer chain.” Glory to God!

 

#2 PRAISE REPORT: Anonymous

Psalm 86:3-4

Be gracious to me, Lord, for I call upon you all day long. Make the soul of your servant joyful, for to you, Lord, I lift up my soul.

October 14’s SOS PRAYER ALERT was for a fellow prayer warrior-Anonymous-who underwent a cardiac procedure that day. She made it through the procedure but later her blood pressure was low, then other issues ensued to the point where they had to bring her back with paddles. Now, God’s hand is forming a canopy of protection over her, and she is resting well, hoping to be out of ICU soon and then later, home. Please continue to pray for his strengthening and healing throughout her body.

 

#3 PRAISE REPORT: Carmella

Lamentations 3:24

The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,“therefore I will hope in him.”

God’s covering has been with Carm throughout her move from the East Coast to the West. She was on our previous prayer list—widowed earlier this year and then had to pick up roots and move to the other side of the country. With God’s comforting hand, she is getting settled in her new place and loves it! Oh taste and see that the Lord is good!

 

#4 PRAISE REPORT: Jeanelle

Psalm 69:16

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

Jeanelle had been on our list for her September 30 hysterectomy surgery after diagnostics showed an abnormality in the uterus. God stepped in! She texted the same day of her surgery that it went extremely well. The doctor was truly gifted and one of Jeanelle ‘s friends took care of her afterward. She is in no pain. And she is thankful for all the prayers support and to her Messiah, Yeshua.

 

12 VITAL PRAYER REQUESTS

 

#1. ISRAEL!

Psalm 3:1 & 3

Lord, how my enemies have increased! Many are rising up against me . . . But you, Lord, are a shield around me, my glory and the lifter of my head.

The heat is on. Turkey wants an alliance with Russia, Iran, Hezbollah against Israel. The Houthis are still at it. Yet, God’s presence is among his servant, Israel. May they prevail in and with him.

God of the Battle, war over your enemies. Empower your angelic realm to aid Israel as you speak wisdom to Netanyahu and his coalition and war cabinet. Strengthen the IDF and all Israeli military efforts, deliver critical intel to them on all levels—both in the natural and supernaturally. Safeguard, fine-tune, and increase their technology, strategies, weaponry, resilience. Encourage all military personnel, helping their minds and hearts to stay courageous, focused, and able to continue onward, filled by your love for them. And may your mercies fall gently and bountifully on B’nei Israel, the Children of Israel.

 

#2. US ELECTIONS

Psalm 86:9-10

All nations whom you have made will come and worship before you, Lord, and they will glorify your name. For you are great and You do wondrous deeds. You alone are God.

The spirt of darkness has infiltrated our land, culture, government, legislations, and the souls of our citizens. We confess the sins of the US, the departure of your ways. We seek your face, Lord, the beauty of your face and ways to cover this land once again. Awaken your Believers, call back prodigals, set free the the captives—those beguiled by the lies and demons of the enemy. Arise, LORD, may your NAME be honored on our lips and in the crevices of our souls.

 

#3. Shirl

Jeremiah 17:14

Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; save me, and I shall be saved, for you are my praise.

SURGERY DELAYED AGAIN! Shirl’s October 22 surgery to remove fluid on the brain was canceled–there weren’t enough IV fluid bags because the manufacturer company was in the hurricane and have low stock.
Shirl has been wheelchair-bound because of the fluid and has had to endure this for quite a while, waiting for a surgery date so she can walk again. Understandably, the surgical procedure is unsettling and the delay yet again doesn’t help. Shirl has fought breast cancer in the past and knows the power and grace of God. We are waiting on God’s timing, mercy, strength.

Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, you hear our cries, you see our challenges and discouragements. You are the Great I Am! Please embrace Shirl with mercy, comfort, strength, and your voice carrying encouragement and revealing your faithfulness. May you step forward and make a way where there is none. Removing the hurdles and obstructions for this surgery in your perfect timing, with your perfect conditions, your perfection in and through all of this. Bless this upcoming surgery down to the infinitesimal details for Shirl’s complete recovery. And may you, precious King, get ALL the glory and honor. In Jesus’s sweet Name, the NAME above ALL names.

 

#4. Gene

Psalm 27:7

Hear, Lord, when I cry with my voice, and be gracious to me and answer me.

October 30, outpatient surgery. Gene’s not been feeling well for some time and has had some gut-related issues. Surgeons will perform a biopsy of Gene’s pancreas and retinol.

Adonai, you are comforter, healer, and wisdom. Please crown Gene with favor and compassion. Wrap him in your healing garment, letting him sense your presence and trust your hand in this. May you stretch out your arms and embrace the surgeons and guide each second of the procedure through the recovery. Bring forth the answers needed, the healing and any further treatment.

 

#5. Austin

Psalm 84:10b & 11

I’d rather stand at the threshold of the house of my God than live in the tents of wickedness, for the LORD GOD is. a sun and shield; The Lord gives grace and glory; He withholds no good thing from those who walk with integrity.

Austin is a young man struggling on many things—his family, his soul, his relationship to God. And he’s tried numbing the pain by what the world offers. But God is calling this prodigal back home.

Abba, may Austin’s soul thirst for you, regardless of life’s storms around him. May he seek your face, sit quietly before you, trusting, waiting, lifted by your Word and voice. Please stir his heart for you, encourage him, helping him walk uprightly, going from strength to strength in you.

 

#6. Josi

John 14:26

But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you.

Josi seeks strength in her walk with the Lord, desiring more of the Holy Spirit. And, in her job as a caregiver for patients, Josi (who is Hispanic) is asking God to bring her more English-speaking clients to help her learn how to communicate with them better. She also seeks him for improved finances and for her children to get along better and get good grades.

King of kings, please usher in Jose’s life a new level of walking with you, hearing you, listening to your voice. Awaken her spiritual gifts and fine-tune them, giving her a deeper understanding of your Word. May this newness carry over to her finances and business life where she can be blessed with more English-speaking clients to serve them on broader levels. Wherever she goes, let her be an ambassador of Christ, anointing her speech, actions, and thoughts. And may her family be filled with your peace and grace, striving to do well in school and all walks of their life before you.

 

#7. Miss Brown

Psalm 27:7-9a

From Hebrew: Hear, O Lord, when my voice cries out; be gracious to me and answer me! For you (your behalf), my heart (heard you say), “Seek (strive for, search out) My face.” Your face, Lord, I will seek. Hide not your face from me.

Major shifting still in progress. Miss Brown needs God’s urgent intervention—financial assistance for the immediate and upcoming needs, covering her out-of-state move and other needs for her and her children.

Abba, we know you’re moving in this situation. Your promises are steadfast. Your character true, above all others. None are like you. Please level every mountain, every obstacle, every interference in this situation so your will flows on a clear path, your words and desires accomplished. And so everything—from basic necessities to more profound needs—are handled. Thank you, for you are our Shepherd who hears and knows our needs and uses all things for your glory. In Yeshua’s mighty Name.

 

#8. Andrea

Psalm 73:28

But as for me, the nearness of God is good for me; I have made the Lord God my refuge, so that I may tell of all your works.

Ever since her back surgery 3.5 years ago as a result of stage 4 breast cancer, her back pain daily teeters at 8-10 (on a scale of 10). She needs a deep move of God to ease her daily life.

Precious Lord, day in and day out, she calls to you for relief. We pray for your great mercy, healing, mighty hand, love, and answer to fall from heaven and rain over Andrea—a holy waterfall from your throne brimming with the power of the cross to heal, restore, deliver. There is none like you, Glorious King. Only you can step in and bless your daughter.

 

#9. J. A.

Psalm 31:3

Since you are my rock and my fortress, for the sake of your name, lead and guide me.

J. A. walks by faith, traveling throughout the US as God leads. She needs prayer support to walk more closely to him, to make decisions per his will, and to grow in him and his Word.

Glorious King, your eyes are on the sparrow . . . and on J. A. Hear the cries of her heart and align her soul with yours on every matter set before her. Help her, Holy Spirit, to not veer to the left or right but to walk honoring you in all things.

 

#10. Marcus

Psalm 16:8a

I saw the Lord continually before me, because he is at my right hand, so that I will not be shaken.

Marcus seeks your continued prayers for his brothers and himself to get along—and for salvation for his brothers (Steve and Jim). Jim who was on our prayer list in the past because of terrible vehicle accident and was almost paralyzed has a praise report: he is healing up well. Thank you, Lord.

Oh Lord, you know the heart . . . and you desire peace, grace, and forgiveness among brothers. Please release your truth, your Gospel, in ways Steve and Jim will understand, be humbled, and bow down to you, forsaking all else. And help Marcus to put his foot, step by step, where you lead in all these matters and let love prevail.

 

#11. Toni

Psalm 29:11

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

Toni, a longtime believer in Jesus, is a senior citizen who had to move earlier this year due to finances and now is facing a rent hike at the new place. She hasn’t even finished unpacking from her move and is not physically well. And she also seeks God’s traveling mercies on Tina and Bob, her sister and brother-in-law.

Lord, you are radiant and holy. We thank you for all the ways you’ve helped and gifted your daughter, Toni, over the years. She needs resources to open up. Please shed your grace, mercy, provisions, and guidance on this situation, helping her to follow you and do your will. And please allow your traveling mercies to cover Tina and Bob wherever and however they travel, keeping them in the palm of your gracious hand.

 

#12. Doug

Psalm 69:16

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

Doug has had serious health issues in the past, is recently retired, and now his dermatologist said that the two spots on Doug’s body—one on the side of his head and one on his arm—are basil cell carcinoma. The doc scraped them both and cauterized them. But the one on Doug’s arm is still bleeding from the day before. He has an appointment next week to discuss treatment.

We look to you, Lord, seeking your chesed (lovingkindness) for Doug. Please step into this situation and comfort him, flow wisdom to his doctor, and release healing according to your will, timing, glory. Let your name and your Word be a comfort, drawing Doug closer to you, reminding him of your faithfulness and love.

Redeemer King, call for these who are in deep, dark spiritual waters, rescue them from the enemy of their souls. Reach deep within them, remove the stubbornness, pride, and the lies from satan so they can hear and understand your beautiful redemption plan and receive Jesus, our Messiah and be saved. It’s in His Mighty, Loving Name we pray.
