Hi everyone.. Bless you all!


My wife and I both lost our jobs a number of years ago and went through a BIG mess. We lost our house (we had to sell it for a few thousand and rent an apartment).

We've been in an apartment complex in our city for several years. It's HUGE. It should have it's own zip code. The management is nice and they really do try to keep things in order but it's not very pleasant. There's been a number of shootings, burglaries, lots of drugs of course, and I myself have seen witchcraft symbols etched into sidewalks and painted on the pavement. Now, this city we live in is near Seattle and the city is nice! It's just that the complex is way too big to manage.

When summer comes we get really stressed and can't sleep because of all the noise and partying. We have two teenage boys and they don't like it either.

We don't have any money for a down payment on a house right now, but we sure wouldn't mind continuing to rent if only we could be in a house in a safe neighborhood! I really don't want to have a greedy, selfish heart like "God give me this, give me that." But we would just love to have the peace and quiet of not having our neighbors on the other side of our living room wall!

We want what God wants first of all, but we are praying and we hope others will too, that even if we can't buy a house maybe he can lead us to a nice rental home that He thinks is best for us. I can't imagine it's out of God's will to pray for a safer, quieter and less stressful place to live? Being in an apartment drives us nuts.

Please pray for God's will in this situation and if it is his will, that he will lead us to a nice rental home.

Thank you!

Dear Lord,

I ask that you open a door of blessing for this couple , so they can have a safe haven Lord to live Lord.

Lord, you care about all of our needs from the smallest to the largest and we ask Lord, that you walk before this family and open up the doors of oppurtunity for them to live in a healthier enviroment for their family Lord.

Until then Lord, help them be content in all things Lord and give thanks in all things.

We ask this in your precious , holy name Jesus.

Amen.

Father this family is asking for your help and I know that you will help them. Father please provide them with a safe place, do for them as you did for Abraham's son, and save him from this nasty neighborhood. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Heavenly Father I agree with the above prayers. Help this family be able to find a safe place to live in that they can afford, lead them to the perfect place for them. Let John see that your word says, that when we pray we should be specific. Also that even though our Father in heaven knows our needs He likes us to ask him, and that we don't have because we do not ask. To ask you Father when we are in need is not selfish for you are always ready to help us. Selfish will be to ask for things that we don't need, so help John understand this and be able to come to you as your son and ask you without fear. Bless and protect this family Lord. I ask and thank you in Jesus Precious Name so that you may be Glorified Father, Amen!

I just want to say thank you and bless all of you who are agreeing in prayer... God is good.. All the time!

John

John,

What a joy to read your words today! Yes, God is good , ALL the time, Amen.

Even during our trials and tribulations, He is good.

We cannot even imagine, how magnificent He is, as He created all of the stars, the earth , the universe, and He can and will take care of all of our needs and I know He is watching over your family and all of us.

We will continue to pray for you. I praise God, for the Joy in your heart!

In Christ, Cynthia
