#30 Oct 4 Prayer Need & Praise Reports

Psalm 70:4 "Let all those that seek thee rejoice and rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, 'Let God be magnified.'" The meaning of the word magnified is extol; praise; to increase or to enlarge. It is like we use magnify glass to read the very fine print and make it bigger and easier to read. The testimonies of God's healing power made our God a greater God. "Let God be magnified!"

Anyway I want to share this prayer request and some wonderful testimonies.

Pauline Braddy from Illinois was in the hospital for IV into her neck to prevent more stroke for a week. Prayer has helped her to become more alive and she has improved greatly. Now Pauline will go to Rehab to exercise her left arm, etc. She was able to walk. It would be painful exercise and that part she needs prayer to overcome and increase the use of her muscle. Her husband, John testified that it was a miracle that she became talkative after so many hours of sleeps for two days. Wow. "Let God be magnified!"

Bill Eckstein is on oxygen 24 hours a day to keep himself from falling. Yet he came to church which surprised everyone and he looks good. His health has greatly improved and thanks to your prayer that his colon problem has been corrected and healed completely. We praise God for this marvelous change in Bill. "Let God be magnified!"

Dianne Oppriecht has a wonderful testimony that she was able to eat oatmeal every morning for a month and her stomach has greatly improved. She is feeling better very slowly and really appreciate your prayers. She kept saying, "Prayer  really works. God does hear them. Thank you partners for your prayers. It means a lot to me" said Dianne. Wow! "Let God be magnified!"

Betty Jo Bennewitz gave a glowing report that most of her tests were good and her kidneys are stabled. What she needs right now is your prayer for her lower spinal cord area has spur problem that needs to be rehab to see if they could correct it without taking any risk on shots. Let's believe and say, "Let God be magnified" in Betty Jo's lower spinal cord and be healed in Jesus' name. Amen!

Tony Callies is having problem with his hip which made it difficult for him to walk with pain. When he rested, he seems fine. But when he walks, it hurts. Oh, let God be magnified and let Tony's right hip be healed in Jesus' name.

Linda Jochems of Michigan would appreciate your prayer for her bladder problem she had for a long time. The doctor recommend her for surgery so they are giving a test for that. She asked for prayer that all will go smoothly and that the hand of the surgeon would fixed it right. So let God be magnified and healed Linda Jochem in Jesus name. Amen!

Please continue to pray for those past prayer requests and many thanks for your powerful warrior prayers. Thank you! Dorothy

#27 Sept 5 Prayer Requests

#27 Prayer Request - 05 September 2014 - Great & Mighty things 

Jeremiah 33:2-3 “Thus saith the Lord the maker thereof, the Lord that formed it, to establish it; the LORD is His name; Call unto Me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”

Christine Mitchell, Winnipeg, Canada - Hi hi ,  Prayer requests please!
1. Our friend a couple who haven't received Jesus as their Savior. No matter how many times sister and brother shared the word of God with them. They resisted anyone sharing the Good News. They both are in their 70's.  Her husband was brought to the emergency hospital last Saturday, he had very low blood pressure and he will need a heart surgery next week and says that the surgery is very risky. We would like a prayer chain to pray for The Lord to guide the doctor during surgery and may the result be of a good report and that they both receive salvation.
2. My husband Len went to see a dermatologist re small "mole" to be removed and send to the lab and he received a call saying that it was confirmed that his arm area had a melanoma. They are sending to the Cancer Centre. May he receive a good report; we don't have to be in fear and put our trust in the Lord's hand. Thank you all for your prayer support. Len and Christine Mitchell Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada.

It hit him hard to where he could not express words so he rested and drank lots of water. He seems to improve some. He and his wife flew home. He had to take it easy. He is having some memory problem so he needs prayer desperately for healing power. He quoted God’s words which has helped him.

Rev. Tony & Dorothy Callies – Prayer Request please!
