Lifting up leaders

Sometime during the week of May 20th, three men agreed to lift Peggy and I up in prayer. I want to report that those prayers worked! Peggy pointed it out Friday morning, the 27th. Something changed and a spiritual breakthrough occurred. Our spirits lifted and our vision expanded in ways it hadn't for some time. We realized then just how much under spiritual attack we had been. Satan, the accuser of the brethren, had been going yhrough like a roaring lion in our lives. To Rick, Billie, and Tim as well as a wonderful couple we visit with in Panera's, Thank You!


You may not realize it, but when you lift up the pastors in the church, you are doing a wonderful work! Every year, large numbers of ministers drop out of the ministry. Please pray for us. Pray for our church. Pray for our elders. Pray for our teachers. Pray for our members.


Remember what Jesus said, 'You have not because you ask not.'
Thanks
John

I would greatly appreciate it if you would also mention all of the prayers that DO NOT get answered. so we can measure if God is random or 50/50 or if he is listening to us at all.

Also, why would God need us to tell him what we need anyway? God has his will, and his plan. Why would he change that?
