REQUESTS FOR PRAYER

“I wish you all to pray for me, that I may have better health, so that I can serve God better.”
“Please remember my three sisters and their families at the hour of prayer, that they may be converted to the Lord; also my brother and his family.”
“My son is not in the truth, and I ask for the prayers of my dear sisters that he and his wife may receive the love of the truth and be among God’s waiting ones for Jesus’ sake; for He alone is worthy.”
“I have been reading the requests for prayer in the REVIEW. I am glad our sisters pray, and I wish our brethren would pray too. My wife suffers terribly with stomach trouble, and I am suffering much from catarrh and chest trouble. Will you please pray God to heal us?”
“I request an interest in your prayers for my aged and invalid husband. He has been an invalid nearly two years, and there seems to be no hope for him only as help is obtained from the great Physician. Pray that he may be restored to comfortable health again if it is the Lord’s will.”
A sister in South Dakota requests prayer for her daughter who is not favorable to the truth. She at one time belonged to the Baptist Church, but has withdrawn her membership. Pray for her and for her husband and little boy, that they may see and accept the truth. This sister also requests prayer for her husband, who is indifferent to religious things.
“Will you please pray especially for my husband? He is very indifferent, and given to using strong drink and tobacco. Pray that the dear Lord will take away the appetite for these things, and that he will not have a desire for the company of those who use them. I long to take him in my arms and carry him to Christ, but I know it is only by the Spirit of God that he can be drawn to Him.”
An aged sister in California requests prayer for two unconverted sons, for two sons in the truth, one of whom has become discouraged, and for the restoration to health of a daughter who has been in the work; also for two married daughters and for daughters-in-law and sons-in-law and grandchildren, and also for herself that she may cease worrying, and may meet all her dear ones in the kingdom. Let us help by the strength of prayer to lift the burden on this dear sister’s heart.
