Would you like me to pray for you?

I try to do a "good deed" each day. I'm home today and therefore not likely to find an opportunity in my community for a good deed. Many people find comfort and relief from their worries when they know there are extra prayers going up for them. Tell me what you'd like me to pray for, *and for those of you who answer, please say a prayer for the person who has posted before you!* Collectively there will be a LOT of prayers and we'll all be doing a good deed. YAY! How exciting!

Update:

*sigh* I see there's a need to provide more info about myself. I do a LOT of community service in addition to my daily good deeds. I volunteer in nursing homes, raise money for homeless vets, sing at fundraising events, etc. I'm a HUGE fan of community service but today, I'm choosing prayer. :)

    You've got some harsh answers here. Shame on them people! I will pray that they will have a change in "attitude" when it comes to someone like you wanting to help others. I cannot believe some of these responses.....but there are many people in this world, that live and thrive off of misery.

    I am pregnant with number 2, due on July 31st. :-) Will you pray for a healthy and safe delivery for me and my baby please? Also, we are fighting with our mortgage company for a loan modification. If we don't get it, we will end up losing our home in the near future.

    Thank you! And I will say a little prayer for you as well that your good deed does not go un-noticed! GOD BLESS YOU!

    Mark 11:24

    Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

    John 14:14

    If you ask anything in my name, I will do it.

    Matthew 17:20

    For truly, I say to you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.

    Although I am somewhat lax in my beliefs, I'd like to believe in the power of prayer.

    Since you seem such a godly person, who believes wholeheartedly in the power of prayer as the bible describes it, I would love for you to pray for my uncle. He lost three of his fingers in an attack on him by muggers several years ago. The wounds have healed but he has a lot of trouble getting certain things done.

    If you would pray for him to regrow his fingers by Sunday (there's a wedding both he and I are invited to, and it would really help him fit in!), that would be great!

    Obviously you have more faith than a mustard seed ;), so he should be good to go by then!

    Please help me with this, whenever I ask any other devout Christians they always say no!

    Pray for those who are lost and need to be found.God sent His only begotten Son to die, for the sins of this world. So that we could one day go to Heaven. He did as act of love, mercy, and grace.

    Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.(John15:13)

    Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.(John14:6)

    That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.(Romans10:9)

    whosoever will, God bless

    Source(s): KJV Bible My cousins all on my dad's side need to get saved please pray, for me so I can witness to them.

    I am not in need of a prayer, but I will pray for someone else.

    Actually, I am in need of a prayer.

    Soon, I will be starting vocational school. In the past, I've not been able to follow through with things, and I fear that I may not be able to follow through with my vocational school.

    Could you pray that I make it through vocational school without dropping out? (I know - it sounds stupid, but I'm really worried.) And maybe pray that I'll be able to find a suitable job after I'm finished with my training?

    Praying does not equate to a good deed. doing something beneficial to someone else is a good deed, praying has no effect.

    Isn't that just a cheap trick to get out of doing actual good deeds?
