"Through the tender mercy of our God,
with which the Dayspring from on high has visited us;
To give light to those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death,
To guide our feet into the way of peace"
(Luke 1:78-79)
We praise you Lord, from the depths of our souls, that You came to be our light and that You shine on us when we are in the darkness and under death's shadow. Oh, precious Father, you are the sustainer of our being. You are the lifter of our heads. You are the beacon in our darkness. You are the one of who hides us, covers us and strengthens us. We ask that you cover those in sorrow and mourning. Give them supernatural peace. Grant them a glimpse of hope that comes from You. Bestow sweet mercy and comfort on their wounded hearts. Reveal yourself mighty to them at this time. Be near to them and let them feel the closeness like never before. Thank you sweet Jesus for all that you do. For all that you are. For all that we can be through you. You are indeed the King of kings and the Lord of lords. We pray this in the mighty and saving and sustaining name of Jesus Christ. Amen

Please lift up Andrew's family tonight. His mother Melanie, her husband and their other 2 children need a mighty manifestation of the presence of God. Andrew receiving his heavenly healing. He no longer suffers from cancer. He no longer is in pain. He no longer has to face uncertainty. He is worshipping our Savior at this very moment. He is on his face and giving all glory to God! Thank you Lord for the comfort you are giving and will continue to give to his precious family.
Continue to pray for Lori - she is the mother of young children and she is fighting a battle with cancer. A fierce battle with a fierce cancer. Oh, precious Father, I rebuke the hold that cancer has on this precious woman. I pray that if it be your holy will, that Lori will experience the healing in her body that will cause that cancer to depart. Father, if earthly healing is not what You have for Lori, I ask that You give her the strength and the faith that she needs to walk the path that she is heading down now. Lift her up. Grant her peace. Thank you Lord for being with Lori and her family at this time.
Sweet Doug still needs our prayers. As do Loren and her brother and the other family members. Doug is in the last stages of his battle with cancer and short of a miracle, Doug will be with Jesus soon. I am so thankful that Doug has accepted Jesus as his Lord and Savior. Hallellujah! That is the most important factor here. Doug knows that if he isn't healed here on earth, that he will spend the rest of eternity with his precious Lord. Thank you Lord that Doug answered the call of repentance and salvation. Grant Loren and her family peace unfathomable and comfort immeasureable. Show them your love in a powerful way at this time. Let them glimpse the splendor of who You are. Thank you Lord for what You will accomplish through the life of Doug.
Pray for the Scotty Berry family. He is a man in our town that lost his short but agressive battle with cancer today. He was 70 years old and a precious man of God. He is celebrating with Jesus tonight! Thank you Lord that Scotty is in Your presence worshipping and praising You! Comfort the family and give them peace that only comes from You.
