Oh merciful Father, Surround my child with godly kindred spirits in her life as she seeks to know what Your perfect will is in her life. Order her steps.

My name is Brandi and the enemy is attacking my family. I am praying so hard for us to come together but it seems like we are growing further apart. Please help me pray for my family to stay together and work out this mess that is going on. Thank you for your prayers and may God continue to bless each of you.


Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. I am soliciting prayer for my marriage. It seems that after making the decision to turn my life over to God, the enemy has been doing what he is known for doing.....steal, kill, and destroy. I refuse to allow him to ruin my marriage!!! My husband is a God fearing man however he seems to have fallen weak over the course of the past few weeks. I know that I serve a true and mighty God and he supplies my every need, I would simply like a few praying warriors interceding on our behalf. This is a second marrige for the both of us and we have only been married for three years---we blended two families together (a total of 5 childern). I pray blessing over my children that they will grow stronger in the Lord . Thank you Glory Girls for being a blessing in my life, and continue to pray my strength in the Lord as I do the Lords will by facilitating a GG ministry in Texas.


Pray for my Family and the Divorce and confusion caused by this. Thanks


Pray for my pastor that she will have peace. Her husband of 11 yrs. Just walked off and she's struggling to maintain her faith in front of our congregation. She is a strong woman, but she is still a woman. Please hold her up before the lord and that she will hear with clarity what god is saying to her. The man was mentally abusive to her, would not work and did not respect the anointing on her life. I know so much, because i am her biological sister and i know that god has to much more for her. She is truly a beautiful loving pastor that is adored by her congregation. Thank you, and you shall get a victory report


I'm not sure how to start this, but I want to say that I was so relieved to find your site. I am a member of the Black Expression book club and have been for years. I am always trying to find something to read that is fulfilling and enlightening and especially spiritual. When I got this month's issue I saw your article. I wondered what to say if I wrote. Well I would just like to ask you to consider to pray with me and my family as we venture into the care of my ill mother. I live with her now and it requires a lot of patience and prayer. She has high blood pressure, has had strokes since 1993 and in 1998 she suffered a heart attack. I Love my mother dearly and living with her has even been good for me. We are closer and have a relationship that I never knew possible. Anyway, sometimes she gets irritated (I'm sure that's all it is) and she says things that I know she cannot mean and I tell her that God's doesn't like ugly and we have to pray when things seem difficult. But I know that is easy for me to say, I'm not the one in pain and confined to the house. Also, I have three other sisters that live in a 50 mile radius, but I am the one responsible for her care. They sometimes do not come or call to see if there is anything to be done. I don't want to feel anything but Love for them, but I need them to understand that this is OUR mother. I hear them say that they don't have to worry about Mom because "___i" is there with her, but they may need to worry about me. I get so tired sometimes, but God always gives me strength and courage to go on. I am a much better woman since I started this venture almost 4 years ago when I lost my husband of 20 years in a car accident. I went to stay with my mom for 2 weeks and have been there every since. I just need some encouragement sometimes and support. I would do this over again for my Mom cause that's just how I feel about her. I truly do Love her and know that she cares for me too. I ask that you PRAY for all of us. I will pray for ALL of you. Thank you;


Praise the Lord Girls!

I am trusting and believing that God will increase my territory. There have been days when I didn't know what I was going to eat, and He fed me. There have been days when I didn't know how I was going to purchase my medication, but somehow, someway I got it. I have had diabetes for twenty years and Lupus for seven so I can't depend on anyone else but God. Girls could you PLEASE pray that my finances would get better for me and my husband? I realize that probably everyone is going thru hard times and I'm no different but I want you all to know that I will pray for you also. So May God continue to Bless You and Keep You. For We Are All His Children!


Glory Girls, Please pray for my marriage, my husband has backslid and I am believing GOD to save him and bring restoration to our marriage.I am also believing GOD to bless my new business in real estate. Thank you so much for your prayers and GOD bless you all.


Please pray for me I am having test done, pray for me a my daughter who has stepped out on faith and gone back to school, she has 3 children and also is married. Also I am thinking about relocating to California...pray that I'm making the right decision to move.


Pray that I can keep on God's path.


Please pray that the Lord will continually Bless my marriage. I am praying for Joy, Peace and that nothing separate me from the Love of GOD.


My Name is Shawn and my 8 month old son was born with a condition called arthrogryposis...he can't move or make sounds...his feet are clubbed and his hands are contracted..

I know that the presence of GOD is around and that he is covered by the blood but I need strength to continue to believe...my faith is growing faint...I have four other children and I wonder what kind of mother can I be to everyone when I have to focus so much on one...I know that God will give me no more than I can bear but right now I feel so weighted. Pray that I may becoming stronger in my faith so that I can give al of this to him and not worry that it will come out for the best of my children.


I thank God from where my help comes from. I ask in Jesus' name to help with my finances they are at a all time low. I was refused a job after being told I was hired, quit my present job the company really let me down. No job, no car riding buses, husband in nursing home; I ask the Lord God who supply all my needs to have mercy on me for answered prayer. I read my Bible daily King James Version. I love to read Psalms. My favorite is the 121. Pray with me touch and agree with me for answered prayer.


I am requesting prayer for myself and my family. After having a wonderful for job teaching handicapped children, I became disabled due to CHF. Sometimes it seems so hard to carry on, but God has brought me through. I would like prayer for God to show me where to go from here, His plan for my life, and that I will be able to recognize His leading, because right now I feel like i'm just stuck in this one place for the pass 3 years. At home taking care of my grandson, and my son who is mentally handicapped and a husband who is not saved, and an older son who refuses to grow-up and do what God would have him to do and be a father to his children. I need prayer for them, and for me to be a living witness for Christ in my home and my community and in my church. I asked God to bless this ministry of Glory Girls.

I have just finished reading the book, I Say A Prayer For Me by, Stanice Anderson. If my financial situation was different, I have so many young ladies in my community who are struggling with alcohol and drugs that I would give each one of them this book. I often go and talk to them, be there for them, especially their childern, it is so painful to see them like this. I pray everyday for God to use me to led them back to Him. It hasn't been easy, but because of the love God has placed in my heart for others, I am determined to continue on in His strength. Pray for me and I will continue to pray for this minstry.


That my two sons be reunited with their wives and family. God already said that He's going to save them. My middle son just got out of jail and is in need of a job; so does my youngest son. All three of them + my husband need to be set free from anger and the past. My husband has a good job but don't half work. I'm believing God because He can not lie. He's going to save my household. Bless you in Jesus' name.


Pray for my sustained faith to believe in God 's healing power for my father who has cancer.


Grace and Peace Sisters in Christ:

This is my "test": My husband and I have been praying and trying to have children for over 10 years. During this time I have miscarried 3 times. To make a long story short, last November God promised me twins (Genesis 38 - Tamar...) and he confirmed it this year by leading me again to Genesis 38 and Genesis 25 (Rebekah). I know God is faithful and will come through. I am writing because we just went through and IVF cycle two weeks ago and the doctors say I am not pregnant- the cyle failed or aborted. You notice I said the doctors said and not God said. I also did not include this pregnancy in the number of miscarriages listed above because God has not confirmed that the cycle has failed.

Although I am spotting (sorry to be graphic) I am still trusting God for HE is not one who would lie. He (God) has been sending me scriptures left and right to let me know that He has not forsaken me. So I truly believe He will come through. Being through all that we've been through sometimes the flesh gets the best of me. I fall down but I don't stay down for long. My prayer request is that you will pray that our (my husband and I) faith remains strong while we are awaiting the twins he promised me. Two scriptures God led me to that won't leave my mind are: Romans 4:20-21,"Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God has power to do what he promised. The other scripture is Isaiah 55:11 "so is my word that goes out from my mouth, It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it." Please know that I am no longer "desperate" to have a child. My soul longs for my twins, but it's not desperation. It is now anticipation and expectation. I am anticipating my blessing and expecting God to keep his promise.

Please specifically pray for my twins, for God did not promise me one child. Even if I end up being the next "Sarah," I know that God will keep His promise in His time not mine.I am sure some people think that I have lost my mind. That's OK because I remember once hearing that faith will make you look like you're crazy; therefore, I must be on the right track. Thank you in advance for your prayers. I will be sure to let you know when the miracle is manifested. As I stated this is my test; but' it will soon be my testimony!!! Be blessed!!


Please agree with me in prayer for a good praying job, with good benefits, best job I have ever had, freedom to work independently, work I like to do, some Christian people on the job, and favor.
Thank you


Please believe God with me for a Godly husband. I have been divorced 7 years. I believe God that 2004 will be my year of total restoration in every area of my life. I bless God for this coming to pass. Thanks, Brenda.


I would like to God to bless my Son to be able to have funds to make our house a home because a year ago everything was taken from us by a family member on drugs. We are now beginning again from as if we don't have anything because everything was taken we now have a new sofa and table but it seems to be hard to get the other things we need. I thank God for the sofa, table, and beds and refrigerator but I would like for it to come together so that it look more like a home.


For my marriage to grow stronger, better and closer and truly more Godly. For my son to get to know Jesus for himself and stay where he is in job corp. For my brother and sister and everyone I know. Praise God and thank you.


Thank you for being here! I just had a press in my spirit to go to borders in Marietta, Georgia today and I picked up a flier concerning books by Renita Reems, and Michelle Stimpson.

Please pray for me and my family (husband & 3 kids) we are believing God to do great changes and new things in our way of living - spiritually, financially. I am also a writer and am hoping to complete 2 of my books to have ready for release this summer.


I am touching and agreeing... Thank You and Have A Blessed Day Catherine Byrd-Clear


Recently, I purchased and read the book "I Say A Prayer For Me" by Stanice Anderson - from Wal-Mart. The book's presentation and message was awe-inspiring. Praise God for Stanice's faith and for her obligation to touch others with the love of God - contemporary testimonies strengthen a true relationship with the Almighty God. As you may know, in the back of Stanice's book there is a brief introduction about Glory Girls - an answer to prayer. I am inspired to support your God given vision and to encourage my friends to do the same. Your organization will provide me the opportunity to become a faithful reader of Word centered and God inspired books. I praise God for the vision He has given you. What a wonderful way to encourage women of God and to witness to others about His greatness. With the direct guidance of the Holy Spirit, I too put my story in print.
However, the manuscript has not been submitted for publication.

My Prayer Request: "To have the faith to share my story with others, and create in me the passion to see this assignment to the end."


I need much prayer for my marriage that I get an understanding of what to do when I have given up? My marriage is at a standstill of separation but still in Love. I am seeking Spiritual Prayers from all that know how to pray. Thank You!


Dear Sisters in Christ Jesus, As I give my life, honor and praise to God the Father, in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ; please agree with me in prayer that the Glory Girls reading group will select my debut novel this year. I know that my book was ordered of the Lord for this day we're living in. Many who've it have been truly blessed by it. New Christian authors need the support of successful book clubs as well known authors do--even moreso. My prayer is that God gives great favor to my petition. I thank the Lord for hearing this prayer and granting me all things according to His Word, in Jesus' name. Amen. Thank you, Sisters.


I am asking that the Glory Girls Prayer Partners please pray for my mother who was just diagnosed with colon cancer. She will be undergoing surgery if her heart is strong enough. She is 85 years young. A woman of God and strong in the faith. Thank you all and may our Lord and Savior continue to bless you all.


Hello Glory Girls
I am requesting some prayer warriors to send up some prayers for my mother. Her name is Gloria G. R., she was recently diagnosed with Breast Cancer that has spreaded to her abdominal area. I know GOD is a healing GOD...I am requesting prayers for her mind, body and soul. Thank You,
Michelle W.


Greetings in the Name of Our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ. I have just finished reading Stanice Anderson's I Say A Prayer for Me and must thank God for the sending her story my way. We all know that nothing is an accident in the Master's Plan. Her book was a blessing. I come today asking all the saints of God to pray for me that I continue to humble myself and become the instrument God preordained me to be. I have struggled mightly over the past year in various areas of my life, however I know what God has a purpose for me and I humbly accept whatever he has chosen. Pray that I remain open and receptive to his plan and will become a beacon of light for another lost soul. When all is said and done we will give all Glory to God!! a nj girl


First I wish to give praise to the Almighty GOD. I registered with your group on 01/14/04. Please pray that I grow stronger in the LORD and that my 3 young men draw closer to the LORD, and we get closer as a family instead of arguing most of the time about what they don't have. Pat L.


I am returning to God, to be honest, for the unkteenth time. I love God and want to do whatever it takes to show Him that I want a personal relationship with him. I recently started back attending church, getting the spiritual direction from my pastor. Pray with me as I surrender my will and desire to God for Him to change it as He sees fit to do. God Bless Glory Girls! I pray that as I become a facilitator that I will become fishers of men. Gwendolyn B.


I ask special prayers for the success of my Medical Transcription business, that I will get request for services from psychiatrists and OB/GYN doctors. Thank you. JMJ MTS


Dear Most Heavenly Father,
First, I thank you for this site that will help intercede on my behalf. I thank you for waking me up this morning because I know you didn't have to do it, I am so glad that you did. I thank and praise you for my family that all is well with them. I thank and praise you for my job, although it gets hard I thank you for the ability to have work. I thank you for friendship and for the glory girls prayers closet.

I pray for a closer walk with the Lord. I pray that my daughter will be able to get closer to God and see Him in His glory! I pray that God would continue to shower me with good health and the ability to graduate August 2004, Master in Administration and I am praying that God would open a door for me in terms of a new position for the new year! A position that would correlate with my future graduate degree in Administration, a great increase in pay so that I can become a crazy tither.

I ask these things in the mighty, matchless, awesome name of Jesus! Amen. Jocelyn


Ladies, Please pray my strength in the Lord. God has a work for me in his Kingdom. And everytime I get close and happy and just prasing him I am attacked. Just please pray that I continue to remain faithful and stand on God's word.


My prayer request is for my household - mainly for myself. I am a woman of much faith and stand firmly on the word of God however, I have been married just a little over 1 1/2 years and my life seems to be a living mess from the time I said I do. I know the Lord will not put on me more than I can bear but the load is getting heavier by the day. The more I cast my burdens the more it seems I am weighted down. I don not currently have a prayer partner so I ask that you will pray with me in faith for God to move mightily in my life. I so desire want to be a Godly wife and mother but I am failing at every turn and I just don't know what to do anymore. It is wearing on me spiritually, mentally and physically.

Please keep me and my family in your prayers. Love, Your Sister in Christ
Wanting to be a miracle - not just looking for a miracle.
