I need prayer. I asked for prayer for my sisters because they are not christians, but i am actually worse since I call myself a christian and am very lukewarm right now. I am unmotivated in most areas of my life, including my christianity. Also, I am very overweight and want to lose weight, but I don't deal with the emotional aspects and eat without thinking twice. I hope this doesn't sound like I am whining, because I know that I am responsible for myself. If you have a moment, please pray for me.

May God bless and be with you and give you the strength you need to deal with your problems. I will place you on my daily prayer list..Please also pray for me and my family as we are going through a troubled time.

Thank you Father God for your mercy is new every morning. Father God, I lift up this sister to your throne today. I thank you that your word says where two or three are gathered there you are. I thank you that if two touching anything on earth it shall be done by our Father in heaven. Father God, this sister is crying out to you. I pray you will meet her right where she is at. She has made the biggest step in faith to admit that her walk is not what she desires. I pray Father God, that you will remove scales from her eyes just like you did with Paul. Father God, I stand in agreement with her for her total salvation. Lord I pray that as she repents and asks to totally surrender her life to you that you will restore her to be whole again. I also lift up her unsaved sisters and pray you will use this as a testimony for them.
In Jesus Name...AMEN

Lord sometimes we have a 'desert' time, when we seem far away from You. But even in the desert You gave manna to the people of Israel. You are still there with my sister. Thankyou that You're walking through the desert with her and that she will come out stronger at the end.

Protect her thoughts as she walks on, lead to show her the way.

She is praying for her sisters salvation Lord, and satan is attacking her and telling her that she herself isnt worth it. Please assure her that she is MORE than worth it, she is worth everything because You gave Your life for her.
Build her up Lord, reassure her time and time again of how special she is. If she stumbles, help her to get to her feet again. Give her peace in her heart, determination and courage to withstand satans attempts to bring her down. Resist the devil and he WILL flee from you..James 4:7

Enlarge her faith and also her self-confidence, give her new hope and strength.
Lord touch her sisters, may they look at Gamicat and SEE the love of Jesus in her. Not by words, but by her actions. Bless all of them and keep them under Your wings.
In Jesus name. Amen.

Gamicat:

Psalm 139 says that The Lord formed our inward parts and covered us in our mothers wombs. That You and I are fearfully and wonderfully made. Our frames were not hidden from Him when we were made in secret and that the days are fashoioned for us (PS 139: 13-16).

The first thing you can do is love yourself as you are. He does! Between 1995 and 1997 I lost 110 lbs, it was hard but each morning I thanked Him and apologized for what I had done to damage the work He had so intricately laid. Then I began to love that work. I prayed that He help me make it the best it could be and I prayed every morning Philippians 4: 6-9 encourages us. Take it and use it.

Grow in Him, lose You in His Creation and watch what happens. I just placed "gamicat" on my refrigerator and everytime I approach it I shall pray for you!
