Hi all,
For some time now I have wanted to address this here on the annointed board, & am just really feeling moved to do so right now. This is important, because this is the way to your prayer breakthrough, so if you want God to move in your situation, please bear with me and read on.

There are currently 15,662 registered members on this board, and if you ever glance at the stats, you will find many visitors here as well, last I looked tonight I think there were about 37 of those present. I think it is safe to say that 99.9% of those 15,662 members and the visitors not registered came here at a point of need. I am one of those numbers and I did myself, and it is also fairly safe to say that many of us, no matter how long here, are still at a point of need in our lives. We can pretty much count on being at a point of need throughout our lives, off and on.

It has saddened me often to see prayer requests with the view numbers registering, but the responses 0, and even to see a couple of responses. This should not be, the responses should at least meet the view numbers and both should read well on every single prayer request posted here. I am guilty myself when it comes to those numbers. Many times I read the prayer and feel short of time to type a word, yet I still say a prayer over the situation. But this is wrong for me to do, and I have been convicted of it. I know that it is a word, even if a brief one, that builds the faith and hope of the requester. The requester does not only need prayer, but a hand reached out to them in support. I have told myself often that a notation as short as, "I am praying for you and love you my brother or sister in Christ", even just a "I am praying for you", five short words, is better then nothing.

Again, we all came here at a point of need, most here are at point of need, and if you want your prayers answered, and we all do of course, then the quickest route to getting your answer is to lay yourself down and pick up someone else, and that is a fact!

We could see miracle answers to prayer flooding upon this board if every single person here, every single person who comes into this board with a request, would stop and take the time to pray over and respond to at least two other requests, five is what I would like to see everyone do. I think it is a pretty sure thing that every single one of us who need prayer would love and would be lifted up and strengthened to see others praying for us, that is why we came here, so why are we not collectively making that happen for each of us.

I am challenging every single person on this board presently, and every single person to come upon the board, to make your prayer request then go pray over five others and post a quick note that you are praying for them, a simple "Praying!" is enough and get on to another if you are pressed for time. Everytime you come unto this board to check your prayer request, pray over five more requests. I can promise you something if you will do this, you will see the hand of God move in your situation much quicker then for you to not pray over anyone else, and I know that from personal experience and there are many many here that can vouch for this from their personal experience. If you want God to move on your behalf, then reach out to another person. You might just be totally amazed what happens for you. So the little bit of time it takes to pray over some other requests is a tremendous investment in your own situation and need, and I challenge every single person here to try the Lord on what I am telling you. You can even read five requests and jot them down for prayer later that day when you can take the time to do so, and leave them a note that you will pray for them today, but if you do this, then remember to pray for them like you said you would do.

I am challenging every single person here and to come to raise the numbers on the response columns, and then I want to see your praise reports posted and your testimonies to how praying for others turned your situation around.

I would love to see some notations of taking me up on this challenge right here in this thread. I am seeking your pledge to pray over others to be posted right below here so I know who to expect praise reports from. Will you take the challenge and trust God to move mightily in your situation because you have honored Him by laying yourself down long enough to lift up another in love?

I will be posting this in other sections also, I want to make sure this challenge gets out to everyone on this board. You only have to respond with your pledge one time on any one of these posts, and I will make a collaborated list gathered from each area.

Thank you for hearing me out and I love each and every one of you, old and new, God bless you.
