Prayer Chain, link 16

Please pray for Renee to have wisdom and courage to deal with a new client. Also,Michelle B. has asked me to add her parents. My neighbor Barry is very sick with bronchitis... might be pneumonia.

Added Thursday 1/24:

Please pray for Marilyn's family, as her brother passed away today. Also, Tiffanie has asked for prayer regarding multiple personal issues. Richard is requesting prayer as well.

Today's Bible passage:

Luke 4:18 (Whole Chapter)
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised.

We begin our permanent prayer requests with prayers for our troops, governments and leaders WHETHER WE LIKE OR BELIEVE IN THEM OR NOT. It is right and proper to pray for them to be safe, enlightened and wise... as well as to pray for their souls. Also pray for our countries and their people.

As often as I can, I will find some of the prayer requests here on gather that have not yet been added to the chain: but you can help, if you are less harried than I, by searching for and adding these yourselves. If you have a prayer chain or list, I would be honored if you'd link to this one. Please don't forget Heather's daily prayer list! She gives us a beautiful prayer each day.

Please also continue to lift up in prayer all those from previous links. Even those whose prayers may have been answered... and pray for each other as well. Including those who don't request prayer but may nonetheless need it.

The lastest requests I receive via email etc. will be added at the TOP of the article as I receive them, until the next link is posted. Usually a few days. The Praise Reports will be published monthly for now, more often if I start getting a lot of them.

The previous links of the prayer chain are all still valid, as are the links spidering off from them. Here is the directory table of those links:
