Day 375 Praying For .........................

Paul said in Galatians 5:22

"The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness."

I can't think of anything more kind or generous than taking the time to pray for someone else.  Sometimes, when we are most in need of prayer for ourselves, a prayer for others has an amazingly healing effect.

"The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective."  James 5:16

Are you not righteous?  The Bible says if we confess our sins, God is just and merciful and will forgive us and cleanse us of all unrighteousness.  There!  Are you ready to pray?

Here are some cancer warriors to pray for today.  First of all is Bryce.  I can't even write the name of the cancer this young boy is dealing with but he is fighting a huge battle.  Another is Bella, a young girl also fighting a rare cancer.  You can follow their progress on Facebook.  Just go to Praying for Bryce and Pray for Bella.  It will take you to their page and if you "Like it", then you'll automatically receive updates on their battle.  And don't forget Sparkle on Sadie. 

Want to be inspired at how a battle with an incurable cancer turned into a lifelong campaign for wellness?  Check out www.kriscarr.com .  Kris Carr, a young actress and photographer, was diagnosed with an incurable form of cancer about ten years ago.  Rather than giving up, she started filming her journey in a documentary called Crazy Sexy Cancer.  Since then, healthy and beautiful, she has become an activist for good health, appearing on GMA and Oprah.  Talk about taking something terrible and turning it around. 

What cancer warrior do you know that you would like us to pray for?  Just send me their first name and a little about their situation and our prayer buddies from China to Germany and Russia and all over the world will be happy share their "fruit of the spirit" and intercede for them in prayer.

Precious Lord, Jehovah Rapha,
You are truly the God who heals.  Thank You for the honor and blessing that comes for praying for these cancer warriors.  I am asking that Your healing Spirit that lives within each of us move mightily in Bryce and Bella.  Bless these two children today Father.  Wrap Your loving and comforting arms around them and their families.  Guide the medical staff in how best to treat and care for them.
Then show Your power and mercy by bringing them through and out of this battle as victors. 
Thank You Lord.  Thank You.
In the name of Jesus Christ, the one true Messiah.
Amen
