REQUESTS FOR PRAYER.

“I WOULD like to request prayer for my grandson. He is well posted in the Bible, and is studying for the ministry. He is a Methodist. I request prayer that he may be converted to the truth. His parents are members of the church, but are not converted, and I request prayer for them and for their other two children, and also for my husband, who is a worldly man.”

“A sister, who is in great distress, requests prayer for a friend who has broken faith with her, in what seems to be the most heartless manner, refusing even a word of explanation. This sister has leisure to write, and might be a help to others, but she is in a most despairing state of mind. Please make this request with all urgency.”

“I wish that every sister who is interested in this work, and the brethren as well, would pray most earnestly for an aged mother, who, in her last days, is in danger of being deprived of her home, which she worked hard to get. Pray that the Lord will open the way for her to remain in her own home, and that she may be led by the Spirit of God into all truth. Also pray for an afflicted brother, who is in the same danger, that he may be able to retain his home, and be guided into all truth.”

“Will the sisters kindly remember to pray for eight dear friends and their families, that God will prepare their hearts to accept this glorious truth, while I seek to help them? Also pray for three with whom I am holding Bible readings, that they may be anxious for the truth, and that they may be among the remnant people. Also please pray for me, that God may direct in a certain trial just before me to his glory and my good, and for the good of all concerned. I am indeed glad for the prayer circle. I know it is a means of drawing us nearer to God’s throne and to one another.”
