The Place of Prayer

I am an Adventist believer. Recently my father-in-law, a retired pastor, 84 years old, diabetic, miraculously escaped an amputation operation. I thank God for answered prayer!

During this period I was not able to work due to Sabbath problems. Our children are in school. Please pray for our family—I need sponsorship for them to continue in school.

Please pray for our 33-year-old son who was baptized before but is now addicted to alcohol. Pray that the Almighty God will bring total change in his character and the ability to better serve the Lord through a Christlike life. We believe that “with God all things are possible” (Matt. 19:26).

I am requesting that Adventists around the world pray for my family as a whole. I have been having a lot of problems in my family. The problems are really generated due to misunderstanding among us. Please pray that we could have a happy family, and a family that respects God and observes the Sabbath day.

I would like to thank you for your prayers during my exams last year. They were answered and it was great! I sat for exams in five courses and passed with five 2.1s (upper second class). I’m among the best students in my class. It is my prayer that God will continue to bless me as I go for exams again this semester. “Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good”—I am seeing it in my life.

Thanks to God for the peace that exists in my country. Please pray that the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ should reach unreached people who have been in war for the past 22 years.

Our parents passed away. Please pray for me and my three siblings that God will give us strength and help us get school fees and other basic needs. Thank you.
