mjtorrence 0 Posted January 4, 2011 I don't ask for prayer from others often the reason is cause I don't like being a bother yet I am standing in the need of much prayer this time, in a way I feel like I am in a dry place with the Lord, I have repented and asked for forgiveness for any sins I may have committed I want to move into my own house not rent anymore and I need a new car and just to be able to be closer with the Lord so will you all please keep me lifted in prayer, thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mjtorrence 0 Posted January 4, 2011 I just feel like its a dry place for me of waiting and more waiting for the Lord to answer my prayers I have felt like this before and then depression came Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Virtuous 0 Posted January 4, 2011 Ok...we know depression is a spirit and it's not of God. The devil is a liar! So we curse that spirit right now in the name of Jesus. I can say that it IS good that you recognize what’s going on and the possible result it can bring. DON’T ALLOW IT TO HAPPEN! We will be tried and tested…that’s a given. But I honestly think we have a say-so (even if it’s slight) in how long we stay in because of our reaction or lack thereof.For me, the waiting is an “it’s on the way sign”. It’s what I DO during the wait is what’s going to make all the difference. Just as in the natural during testing time, the teacher doesn’t speak. He/she has taught and given you all the material you need to pass the test and has given you a set time to take it. He/she waits for you to take to the test then gives you a grade on what you’ve retained and what you’re able to apply according to the answers given.The same with God. I honestly believe in my heart that when we are in these waiting seasons for answers to our prayers, God is testing us on what He’s provided for us. There is something attached to the prayers you’re waiting on to be answered. There is something you didn’t do when you felt like this before and depression set in. Don’t allow depression to set in by NOT doing it again.I think you stopped believing the first time. You stopped hoping. When there’s no hope, there’s nothing. Don’t give up. You have to press your way through. Don’t look to the left. Don’t look to the right. No matter what it looks like, feels like, taste like, smell like, and sounds like it’s hallelujah. When you don’t understand…its hallelujah. In the midst of your storm…it’s hallelujah. The highest praise is still hallelujah. Those are words to a song God gave me in October after a trial.Dig deep mj and find the weapon(s) God has equipped you with to get through this waiting season. You have it. Faith is the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen. Find YOUR substance mj. Don’t give up the fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dove-Solutions 0 Posted January 5, 2011 Lord,I thank you for MJ. I thank you for your sweet sweet spirit in her. Thank you Lord for our trials and tribulations. I know what she is going through Lord. I have had my desert time too. When I have not felt your presence and it can be a dry place. But I know just like she will discover that you are there. Even when we can't see you, you are there. Thank you for a fresh anointing of the Holy Spirit in her. refresh her anew. Father she knows she is forgiven and we thank you so much that when we are weak you are strong, when we are tired you are awake as you never slumber no sleep, when we find it hard to continue on you give us hope and love to carry us through. Thank you Father for that in her. We give you praise, honor and glory in Jesus name. your servant,Connie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
