a couple new prayer requests...

Good Morning friends and family. A couple new prayer request that you can pray for please.

First, One of the guys that just started going to our bible study has been having trouble with a friend of his. Here is what he says:

"We had a conversation online a few weeks ago and she was in a really bad mood and her vision must've blurred because she's saying things I don't recall at all! She's a really good friend in Christ and I don't have a lot of those that are girls, so if you could pray that she would see with eyes unclouded by hate, and that she would open up her mind to second chances!"

Please pray that God RESTORES this relationship with Christ as the focal point! Thank you.

The second request is about Crys' brother Jesse Lopez. He and his fiance' Bree have been having some relationship issues but also he has turned the temptations of this world. We know he doesn't want to do this anymore and is just having trouble escaping the grip of this world. Please pray for him!

Pray that God opens his eyes to things he is doing that is destroying him and his relationship with his fiance'!

Prayer for April 15th

So just a couple quick prayer requests; please spend just a minute praying for these, that would be awesome! and if you have a prayer request please send me an email at timtoyota2000@yahoo.com Thank you to everyone who prays.

The first request is kinda generic but in a way I feel is necessary. Today is tax day and for many this is a day of financial hurt and of financial blessing. Please think of everyone you can and say a quick prayer for financial blessing all of them...

The second prayer request is for me (Tim); I really have been feeling stressed about my job at Lithia. We have a new General Manager (Jason), and in a way I really feel like he is purposely trying to make things difficult/extra challenging for a few of us and his intentions of making us better maybe good but in turn it is doing more harm than good. Please pray for revelation from God that He might show me what He would have me do, either stay and keep on going on at Lithia or if He would like me to move on. Please pray for patience and clarity. Thank you so much.

April 14th

Hi everyone! I have a prayer request from Joe Tweton. He has an interview with Coke tomorrow at 11am. Please pray that the employer sees favor in Joe and that the interview goes really well.

Saturday before Easter!

As we get close to Easter please be praying for all of the lives that will come to know Christ! That is the biggest prayer request we have!

Please send requests in if you have them!

Prayer request April 4th

Hi everyone,

This request comes in from my mom, Miriam MacDermot. Her dog, Sundae, is getting spayed this week and she would like you to pray that she goes through a smooth surgery with no complications, and a swift recovery. Thank you so much for your prayers and all you do.

Goodnight and Godbless!

Wednesday - April 1

Hi Everyone,

Here are the prayer requests that have been gathered this far for the week.

First off is I have been hearing of a lot of sickness still going around... Pastor Chuck of the Gresham Vineyard who is a dear friend of mine is sick as well there are a few in that congregation that are. Please pray for healing.

A very good friend of mine, Joe Tweton is looking to God to help him with his Finances, and I'm finding myself in that same boat. That said, we are all praying in faith that God will provide just like he talks about in Matthew 6... "Lord God I pray that Your Divine order would be established and maintained in all of mine and Joe's financial affairs!" Jesus says in Matthew 9:29 "...according to your faith let it be to you." And we accept that in the Name of Jesus!

My good friend Matt Johnson has a job that he works a graveyard shift, he needs a better job that works more normal hours so it will be easier on his family.

Please be praying for me as I am really struggling at work. I know I have Gods favor in my life but just recently I feel that at work it is a different story. Pray that my eyes would be open to opportunity and that God would guide, govern, protect, and allow me to prosper at work.

"Let Your mercies come also to me, O Lord- Your salvation according to Your Word so shall I have an answer for him who reproaches me, for I trust in Your Word." Psalm 119:41-42


The last request came in today from Bruce H. at Living Hope Church:

We have a job ahead of us. It's time, once again, to pray for Easter. How, you ask? There are several things that come to mind. First, the big tent is coming today. Let's ask Papa to provide strength for those involved in putting it up. Also safety and wisdom. Also ask for the process to be orderly and peaceful. Then, after it's done, ask the Lord to fill the tent with His Glory!

We want the atmosphere of heaven to fill the tent. Begin to talk to Papa about who should come. There are many people who have an appointment with God under the big top. Most just don't know it yet. Our part in prayer is to ask God to get them there. And then, once they're there, for the Holy Spirit to draw them into the Kingdom.

Also, no less important, let's ask the Lord for an accident free Easter, shall we? Let's ask Him for an Easter series filled with the Joy of the Lord! Ask Him to protect the equipment. Let's even ask for great weather for the weekend. Finally, starting now, let's ask Holy Spirit to pour out His sweet Presence on the staff. We need Him now as we work on the process of getting everything ready. We know there is a very real enemy trying hard to wreck our attitudes or anything else he can influence.
Our part is to simply call heaven into the midst of everything we're doing.

Amen?

Prayer Request for March 30, Matt Johnson

This request comes from a friend, Matt Johnson is going through some tough times. Below is his prayer request:

"I would like prayer in many parts of my life, but one in particular is honoring my wife the way I should. I've found myself talking and sending things to girls I meet that shouldn't be said or sent. I view this as my disease as it keeps coming back to me and I find it easy to do. Now I won't physically do things with the girls I talk to, but the words and things that are sent are just as bad as doing physical things. I came to Tim because I view him as a friend, leader, and confidant that he will help me acknowledge the things that I am doing and help me find my way back to where I was with God, myself, and my wife. I told him that I wanted my name on here that way if you know me to call me or text me and tell me that you are praying for me. For I have also shut people out in doing all this. I need and want God and my church family back in my life without worry of what I might do, that when I see myself doing something that I'll call one of you to help me out. Thank you and God Bless everyone of you.

P.S. And obviously I need help in honoring and respecting myself as well as it all ties up in marriage."



Thank you for taking the time to pray for Matt, he is a dear friend of mine and I know that God will heal him and his marriage.

The original Prayer Wall

The Wailing or Western Wall is the last remaining bit of the original temple Jesus knew. For hundreds of years people have prayed there. Sometimes writing their prayers on paper, wedged between the bricks. This is our wall.

Please email or comment on the blog your prayer requests and then please spend some time praying for someone elses needs!

Thanks you and God Bless!

Prayer Requests March 25th

Please pray for Ben Reinhardt and his family. His mother passed away this morning. All of the children were able to be with her except Bill who is over in Iraq, Their Dad was even able to come to town to support the children. Thank you.

Leona Daves (only 41) in hospital being tested for cancer and lupis. Had 4 transfusions Monday night. Having a colonoscopy Wednesday morning. Needs lots of prayer.
Drs have found a tumor on Melanie Foley's liver. She's only 38.
Thanks for your prayers.

I wanted to share an urgent prayer request with you and the prayer team. After the service today at Washougal, Dan and I prayed with two women who asked for prayer for a young father who has terminal brain cancer; he is currently in hospice. He and his wife, Shawna, have 4 children. Renee and Deaun (the ones who requested prayer for him) were touched by John's comment about we serve a "God who is in the business of healing!" So the four of us prayed for healing. The man's name is William (Bill) Texidor.

Tim would like everyone to pray for his job, and the people that interact with him everyday.


My Prayer;

Lord Jesus, I thank you for everything you do... You are such an amazing God. Tonight I bring to You some requests for both myself and Aaron.

Father God I pray for Aaron's friend and co-worker Ethan. God we know You are a Jealous God and we know how much You love Ethan, and desire a relationship with him, the same way You do for everyone... But Jesus we pray that You would open Ethan's eyes to You and the things of creation that You have put before him. That You would use Aaron in His life to be a witness and a blessing. Aaron is such a blessing in my life and I know that he is going to do great things for Your kingdom. I pray for Joe , Aaron , Eric, John, and Ethan in "Dwell," Lord that You would use there musical talent as a witness to the Kingdom of God. They are all so precious to You.

Father I pray for myself and the Gresham Group that every time we gather that we would open ourselves for the things that You have for us. I know that You have great things that You want us to do and I pray that You would just continue this work in our lives. Help me Father, to be a better friend, brother, pastor and husband. I have so much yet to learn about You and I pray that you would just reveal Yourself to me in a mighty way... Please come use me at work to be a better witness for You and help me to have more patience with all of my managers and co-workers, Lord Jesus please shine through me. It's by Your blood that I come to You now, and I love You and I praise You. By Your holy name I pray, Amen.

The Prayer Wall...

Thank you for visiting "The Prayer Wall."

This is a place where we as believers in Christ bring our prayer requests so that we might be able to pray for one another as instructed in numerous places throughout the bible.

My name is Tim Reed, I help lead and pastor a group in Gresham, Oregon. Every week, a team and myself will add to this list of prayer requests that I receive in person or emailed to me at greshamcampuslhc@gmail.com . If you would like prayer, send us an email right now and we will get it up within 24hrs. You may put a name on it if you'd like or we can keep it anonymous.

We pray that this will bless and minister to all who read it and pray. I will also post praises and answered prayer requests as well. I can't wait to see what God will do with this part of our ministry.

We are affiliated with Living Hope Church in Vancouver, Wa which is a multi-site church. You should also visit that website if you haven't before. It is another way to get connected and see other places and times for services. http://www.livinghopechurch.com/

By the way if you are wondering what the "R" means in the wallpaper above in the blog it is "The Resurgence"... It is a movement that resources multiple generations to live for Jesus so that they can effectively reach their cities with the Gospel by staying culturally accessible and Biblically faithful.
