| there is ancient Hebrew scripture as well as ancient Greek texts that say clearly say that "one" can put a hundred to flight, and two "ten thousand to flight???? Take that formula and ask for prayer and watch miracles happen.
I have a service for you if you are so inclined. Write to me about a prayer request for your loved ones and I will agree with you for their healing.
This is an open thread for prayer. Stand back and watch the power of God do his thing. | |

| ok so if it's open i assume i can put request here and not in PM... *** my prayer request is for the healing of my sister and by way of her healing, a glorious result for her daughter, my angel niece, only 7 yrs old and totally innocent., totally shell-shocked | |

That's an interesting choice of words if you think about it.....I would have thought it was: "I will pray for you for their healing"..... By all means if you can provide a miracle go......I would be delighted. I'm only too happy to see peoples prayers answered for real. But this is only a means to help others. It won't go beyond eliminating peoples suffering and serving other people. Just remember that I won't be tricked from any sleight of hand. Lets see what you can do.......What faith you have....... - Quote :
- Ask for prayer
Only if your faith is greater than mine will I ask you. I think you have no-where near the faith required for a miracle...... | |

| Hello winehippie, I will agree with you for your sister and niece.
The power of prayer as I understand it is not any one persons faith over another but the power of two in agreement, any two.
The thought and well wishes for others is what this is all about.
This post about prayer is all about agreement and intention. | |

| What do you mean you agree with her for it to work though.....I don't get how that is relevant to it.
If you have faith in god you can just heal with faith alone. Jesus didn't need agreement with Lazarus. Lazarus was dead wasn't he? So how could he get agreement between Lazarus. He just said come out Lazarus.......
So how did he do that?
I think it's great to attempt it.....in fact I've seen peoples prayers work a couple of times on the forum and with me personally I've felt some effects of other people positive thoughts....
But this miracle healing in this way takes a lot of faith.....I don't have that faith and I'm not sure you do.....But a thread like this is a good start to build it up....
I'd like to be wrong.....and that you can heal everyone. But I don't think that is where you are at, at this time. I've tried very hard to build my faith up......and if I can't do these things yet. I very much doubt you are that much more devoted to love than I am.....as arrogant as that sounds. I just don't feel love radiating from you to that degree where I feel like I should be listening to you....Because that's how I measure it.... | |

This post about prayer is all about agreement and intention. i have been praying for a couple of years now... it may have helped, i do not know, because this sister is estranged and i have not heard from her in more than a year... i am concerned for my sister, although she is an adult and has made her choices and must live them out. The child, however, is my main concern. I believe she is/has been in danger... so now what do we do? and what if my sister "does not agree"? | |

| Wine Hippie this was my response on Lindas thread in what can we do.. i think it fits here also
the phrase whenever two or more are gathered..has great meaning to me..we are so powerful alone but when combining our energy i think it is squared in multiples i will add your sister and neice to my send list if you would supply a first name of each.. hugs Hi Linda
i think it a great idea..
when i first got on line i met a group of folks and thur a few message boards/ forums we got to be a kind of healing group and the last reincarnation is a prayer room on another site where you just drop in and tell who you would like prayers or energy sent to and then whoever wants to can check in and send whatever feels right for them
there was a lot of discussion pro and con of interferring with someone's life without permission and that finally got settled by stating (for those who felt they were interfering where they shouldn't ) when you send that it was for that persons highest good in whatever form worked for them at this time of now or any future now..
i do think a name is helpful but that is just me..we are evolving so fast maybe just the desire to help those spoken of | |

ty, otter, prayer is the only venue remaining, because i tried everything else my sister's name is Tracie Faith and her daughter's name is Lucia (light!) whether that little girl is with her mother, or has been sold, or is kidnapped within the Child Protective Services (what a joke) system, i just do not know, since i am an aunt and have no "rights" | |

| Wine Hippie please don't think i am preaching..i am not but i think you are holding to tightly to the negative.. whatever the circumstances...change the way you are picturing them change the program by thinking that she is with loving people you may have no rights as an aunt but as a fellow human you are powerful beyond words prayer is not the only way..just one way they are both on my list now.. | |

| I thought Sky's suggestion of using a name was a good idea because there was no harm in that. And I will tell you that both the people I asked for prayers for...... actually did get better.
I will pray for your niece and sisters...and you..... | |

i do not think you are preaching, otter... i really appreciate the little nudge as a reminder... somehow, i have been able to do a good job of releasing fear and negativity around MYSELF it is when thinking about the innocents that i become concerned yes, i will start to visualize Lucy as a happy child in wholesome circumstances - and i will try to stop being afraid for her ya did good, otter, thanks again | |

| Hi sky otter ,winehippie and Linda
That is the intention of this thread just so people can agree together. I am glad you are all participating, this can do nothing but help.
It is too bad to be estranged from any of our loved ones, although I do know the feeling winehippie personally.
People get prayers answered all the time as you guys all know, and as you also know there is no secret silver bullet for prayers and intention manifested. No one can say why some prayers get answered and some do not, but this thread is simply to agree with others and all we can do is keep our expectation high as we would normally do.
Thanks to you all for your good intentions. | |

That's where I think you miss something about all this. The reason why wishes come true is not something random but a power from within the self that can be cultivated and developed. There is definitely reasons behind why some things work, and other things not. And those things are something you can master. It's ok you can talk to me if you want I'm not going to hold it against you or say "I told you so" or anything dumb like that. | |

| Gabe, I agree. With all of us participating, this can do nothing but help. I also love Sky's suggestion of visualizing a loving, safe enivornment for Lucy. WineHippie, we are praying and sending loving, protection thoughts for Lucy, your sister and YOU. | |
