The other day, I was on the phone during evening broadcast and I was amazed at some of the prayer request that came in. One gentleman wanted prayer for his dog that was hit in the mouth and needed stitches. Another man wanted his friend to return his phone calls. After I prayed for both requests, I hung up the phone, wondering what kind of call I would get next! It was not long before the phone rang again. I answered, and on the other line was a Jamaican lady who desperately wanted prayer for her marriage. She said her husband met up with his high school sweetheart who he had not seen in twenty years. He said they were just friends, but he now is sending her presents and calling her every night. This broken woman poured out her broken heart to me and cried as she told me her story. I prayed against the attack of the devil that was coming at her marriage and family.
Then I prayed for peace and joy fill her and her family. As the joy of the Lord started to bubble out of her, she started laughing uncontrollably. We both laughed and thanked God for the work that He was doing in her marriage. After that phone call, I viewed the phone ministry in a whole new way. People call in who are literally on the verge of life or death. They are depending on my prayers to bring them through and help them. There is a real seriousness and responsibility that comes with the phone ministry and it is a privilege to be able to help in that area. –Hannah P.
I read these prayers and so I wrote out a prayer using the King’s English, a very high priestly prayer, “thee”s and “thou”s and “shalf’s and I had everything grammatically correct.
