Need your prayers more than ever.
« on: November 29, 2008, 04:08:00 PM »
It looks like I'll soon be homeless. Still no job, Selling all I can for money. No phone, No home internet connection(that's why I only log on every few days lately) really, truly depressed. In normal times I sleep about 6 1/2 - 7 hours and lately I sleep twice that(when I can sleep) and never feel rested. I swing back and forth from insomnia to 12 hours of tormented sleep. I have to force myself to go for walks(for my health) and to look for work. I got really discouraged after I put in 22 applications in at local businesses and didn't get one call. I've never been this down in my life. I used up all my financial reserves the last time I was unemployed. Even if I find a new job I have to find new living arrangements. My landlord doesn't want to throw me out in the street but also doesn't want me to stay once I'm employed. I would just take my tent and hit the woods but my tent got stolen along with all my other stuff I had in my storage unit. My car is out of commission I almost had enough put away to get it fixed when I lost my job. I was living off that money lately but it's all gone now. I have $1.74 in the bank, $2 in my pocket(1 dollar and change)and no apparent prospects. Do you have any idea how bad it makes a man feel when he can't even get a minimum wage job? I pray for guidence and direction and help continually(it's hard nto to pray selfishly at a time like this.) I try to remember to pray for all your prayer requests. I'm admit that my mood wasn't helped by Obama's presidential victory and both houses of Congress swinging left so fully. I feel adrift and lost. Help me with your continued prayers. Thanks

Father God,

I thank you for your many blessing you have given me, and praise you for your protection over my family. Lord my heart is heavy and I'm asking for intervention for my brother Curtiss.

Lord place your protective hands around Curtiss, and guide him with your Holy Spirit. Let your words, whether they be through other people, reading, or your audible voice be loud and clear to him. Bless him financially, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Hear our plea Lord, and let Curtiss be lifted up in your care, and protection.

Provide him a job that is your will, one which fits his spiritual gifts, to bring you glory and honor. Although we know your timing is perfect, we ask for your answers to his job be swift, and quick to us.

In Jesus name I ask and claim these things, Amen.


Curtiss pm an address that you are able to receive mail.

Thanks guys, especially you BOFF, my heart feels lighter already; but maybe that's from the 5 cups of coffee I got here at the internet cafe.  :bigsmyl:

Brother, you know my heart on this.

Seems jobs are the nemisis of several of us of late. We're not alone.  I have no insights why things are as they are, or how they will change.

All I can do is trust and walk in faith and pray you are lifted up to do the same.  

Keep the Son in your eyes, Curtiss!

Hey Brother here is a word for you and all of God's mighty warriors!


Then I heard a loud voice shouting across the heavens,

   “It has come at last—
      salvation and power
   and the Kingdom of our God,
      and the authority of his Christ.
   For the accuser of our brothers and sisters
      has been thrown down to earth—
   the one who accuses them
      before our God day and night.
  And they have defeated him by the blood of the Lamb and by their testimony.
John 8:36
So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.
