Today I pray in type for everyone, that God may heal us as the will of God is what ultimately determines outcomes in my beliefs. I pray for the financial, physical, mental, emotional strength that we each have to carry over the lack of any of those that we may have. I pray for the believers and for the non believers. I pray for the believers strengths to overcome and shine so much more than any weakness they have not even be noticed. I pray for the non believers to hear God's word, and know that God is good and moreover how good God is, as well as the same prayer I have for the believers. I pray also for the strenght to carry us through until we may be with God in the Kingdom of Heaven. I pray for all to know the road to God is through Jesus Christ OUR Savior as well. That We may all look forward to the peace and love we will be bestowed upon when we arrive in God's Kindom in Heaven. I pray for all people's relationships to be so Godly that Our relationships carry Us through each low time, as well as each high time. I pray all these things and all the other things I couldn't pray here in type because God knows what is in my heart truly, and knows of it's closeness to God, God's will and innocent child like faith We all have deep within each and every one. In Jesus Name I pray all this. God Blesses! May he bless each and every one of us with all his blessings today and every day. Amen. Sandy

I have been studying prayer for many years. I find that no matter what book I am reading lately, I find that I am highlighting things to pray about or prayers. I do enjoy collecting prayers, praying whatever God puts on my heart, learning about every kind of prayer. For years I had problems with praying because of false beliefs that I had picked up from different churches and ministers. Now, it's just plain fun. God bless you, prayer warrior.

Thank You so much! May God Bless You as well, and abundantly. Off the subject for 1 second... I love YOUR user name. I take it that is a form of dyslexic using of the word? ha ha ha... it's just such a .... creative one! ;). Back to the subject, after reading your response I just wanted to comment, and say besides how much I thank you for responding. I wish to ask you a question and hope you maybe able to answer, without to much trouble or it taking to much of your time either. Here it is... when I was studying the "good news" bible weekly I went through a course on prayer and I wondered if you could refresh my memory, as to the content prayers should include more or less rules of a prayer. I do believe the order isn't what is important but that when studying about them they have sort of like a basic rule of thumb to go by. You have any information on that? Thank You again and as I said May God Bless You and All abundantly. Sandy

You asked me about my name. I use sysdexlicwriter because for nearly 50 years I was dyslexic. I did not learn that I was dyslexic until I was 40 years old and my daughter was diagnosed with the same problem. During her early school years we home schooled her not knowing that she had a learning disability. I was able to teach her how to read and read so well that she was at college level in all subjects but math by the time she entered the 9th grade. God helped us day by day with her studies. Later I learned that all that God had been showing me was in the instruction books for teaching dyslexic people to read. My daughter was accepted into a school of choice because of her high test score ratings for high school. After high school, my sisters and I were praying for my niece who could not go beyond the first grade reading level even though she was in the fourth grade. God directed us to a lady who figured out why my niece could not read. It turned out that she had an eye muscle problem. It runs in the family. One in four people in the U.S. have this problem but it goes undetected because it does not show up in a normal eye exam. With my niece going through vision therapy, then a nephew, then my daughter and myself, we have all come out of dyslexia and enjoy high academic scores without compromising the assets that dyslexics have. So, at 50 years old, I left behind the dyslexia and am now sysdexlicwriter. PRAISE GOD!

Now for the second half of your question. A very basic rule for prayer that I can think of is to always pray in the Name of Jesus. Once that is established, it is important to pray according to God's Will. His Will is His Word so I like to incorporate scripture in my prayers. Over the years I have learned about binding and loosing and praying in tongues. Some of this may seem a little radical to some but it has taken me a long time to shed certain mind blocks that I have had. All in all prayer comes down to a personal conversion with the God of all things. How awesome it is that He is always there for us and that He doesn't put us on hold for any reason. I am not sure if this answers your question but I have been doing this for over 30 years and it is a little difficult to give you a short answer. When prayers are effective, there should always be evidence of results.

Thank you for the wonderful words, Sandy. We all need to be reminded of this from time to time. Because we are human we tend to forget this. Thanks for the reminder.
Purrs,

Your so kind to thank me! A great big thank you I send your way. I totally agree with you and how one can so easily from time to time appreciate a obvious reminder, yet knowing our vulnerabilities, exist because we are human. I still pray for each and every one of us all the goodness God has in store for us. I try to patiently wait as I hear others have left us and made their way to heaven. I also try to help as much as I can those who are still here doing as much as I can as I go about living. I thank you again for your response and friendship and mostly for stating the facts as we can always use a great reminder! God Blesses! Sandy

This prayer is one of the first things I saw this morning. Thank you Sandy for the very beautiful and inspiring words for today. This is a very beautiful prayer and I agree wholeheartedly with all your words. God and Jesus Christ can truly get us through each and every step we make today and everyday. You can absolutely say a prayer for me everyday. I love you and all you stand for.

I am so thankful for your response, honestly and feel so blessed to have had the ability and idea to do so. I am sure I was not the first and thankful I won't be the last. God and Jesus truely do get us through as you typed and I am knowing how so it is all the time. I feel so much thankfulness and love that I can even attempt to pass on my love for Jesus, and God who strengthen me as I need. I am so well aware of my family and friends that I have been so well provided for even in the midst of this life that has such beauty and wonder and joy that it is such a ever presence in my mind of how when I go to heaven I will be there and the suffering won't. I am so well aware of suffering, and how there are so many that suffer so much more, in sickness, that I am so thankful that there is a end to this human life here on earth. I try so hard to be not only loving but kind and forgiving as I walk through my day and touch others, I hope to only be able to do as much as I can for as many as I can as I continue to to rejoice and be thankful for each and every day that God's will has planned for me. I am not always sure what that exactly is to any fine detail but I am so thankful it's taken care of and that as I live each day I can honestly say that I have been so blessed and have such great family and friends to be thankful for, as they have touched me and helped me be who I am, even as I pray as I did when I started this typed prayer. For You I am praying that God and Jesus do indeed walk with You and carry You through all obstacles, and yet keep You rejoiceful with me.

Thanks for the prayers! I badly needed that and it's so nice of you to include us in your prayers. I'm not really a saint but like you, i am also a believer. I mean no matter what, nothing can disprove me of His existence. I just have too much faith within me. I know i sin a lot and i do pray sometimes to ask for forgiveness. I sure don't forget to pray just to give thanks. I do not pray only when i need something from Him. So far, he has answered my prayers intended for some people close to me. I guess in prayers, we should also be generous and selfless.

I really am so glad that the prayers were there and helpful in your time of need. I know it's not even easy sometimes to know we have a need much less what the answer to the need is exactly. You are not alone modstar, for we all sin, a lot no matter how close we are to God and having Jesus in us, and our hearts and souls. We are human, and I know that the relationship we have with God and Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, guide us and keep us close, but we all stray. That is the toughest part of having to live this life we do, in my opinion. Not to sin mind you, but to be God like as He intends and not sin as His will longs for. As we honestly strive to steer our children. I honestly feel as God's will is for Me I have for my children. Yet we are children of God and do as our children have unto us as we do unto Him. It's the will God gave to us, so we could have a choice. I really would like to believe that it would have been so much better of a life without that choice we were given since then there would be NO sin. But as I have said many times without sin (which often is due to challenges we face, when we are so much more so vulnerable to stray) life wouldn't stay interesting. It then therefore gives us so much more to look forward to when we go to heaven and can sit on the right hand of God the Father Almighty with Jesus and know our most everlasting blessings of joy, peace, love, happiness, with the lack of suffering forever and ever. I do agree we should be generous and selfless in our prayers but I also know how much we are loved by God, and Jesus and how Jesus is constantly praying to God for us as He has already done so much suffering for us. As that was God's will but I also never forget that I believe God still wants to hear our prayers for our own self also since He loves us so much and how can we pray for and love our family and friends if we don't love our own self enough first after God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit in us? In other words I have typed online before something to the effect of if we cannot pray for ourselves how then can we expect God to hear our prayers for others either then? I am so glad you responded to my prayer, because you shared from your heart, so very much that I honestly believe will answer a prayer for someone. Probably someone who didn't even know they had that type of question or thought on their mind. One of which I had no idea, I could type a prayer and have people comment like yourself so honestly and I therefore thank you again and pray that God abundantly blesses You and everyone as His will is done. And God Blesses! Sandy

In our Heart, soul, and yes even in our Mind, God is with each of us. Thank you for your prayer Sandy.
Have you ever just tried talking to God in a conversation to get through something? Or something awesome happened and you look to the sky and say, Thank you for this miracle. I have many times and will many more times. That is how I pray, I just strike up a conversation like I would with you or someone else. Talk out what I am feeling or a prayer to help someone in need of a miracle. Just talk as though He is standing right there like a father or mother asking for help for something or for someone in need. My faith is within my heart with the love God gives, My faith is in the soul to know it is truth, My faith is in the mind to gain the knowledge of all that God wants us to know. Peace within, Love to project out, forgiveness so that all may learn.

I Thank You so much for responding to my prayer. I feel so blessed to see such thoughtful and thought provoking comments. I have as you asked looked up to God in the heavens and Thanked and Praised Him for His abundant blessings on occasion and as you yourself suggest I shall indeed do that myself I am sure many more times. Even when I haven't moved through those motions I have found other ways to pray that I would definately admit some may think strange. I cannot count the times, although I am sure there surely will be many more but never could have been enough. I can recall several different occasions where I back up my husband and pray as I help him accomplish a task that is quite mundane. Like holding something up while he secures it. Such as a gutter, while I am on a ladder which seems like the task will take forever and I just pray inside and keep on praying for those I know by name and those I don't also. While I continue to do things like that and the time just flys by. Even though as I am praying it seems endless I realize when the task is finally over whatever it maybe that I surely could have had so much more said in prayer but that the job was completed, not to mention safely. I do also yes speak as though He is right there in front of me and I am speaking to him as if I was speaking to a parent or a elder, and thanking them and or asking advice and I try so also to be so ever remindful of the fact that it will be answered in His time and as His will sees it. I am honestly so thankful for the plan to be His will. I still can attest to the fact that I am so human and often feel as though the outcome is not my will, however His plan is already set up. Thank You again for your response and sharing. God Blesses! May He abundandly bless You and each and every one of Us as well. Sandy
