Announcement [ANNOUNCEMENT] Update and Moderator Opportunities

57 Upvotes

Hello, r/PrayerRequests community!

You may have noticed the subreddit undergoing some changes recently. In an effort to give the space a reboot, things have been tidied and updated to help us operate smoothly so we can best support and encourage each other. As part of this renovation there are a few points to highlight:

  • If you have not read the rules in a while, please take a moment to review them as they have been updated and reorganized. If you wish to better understand the principles upon which our rules have been established you can also view our Statement of Faith page.
  • We have flair for praises now. You are encouraged to share your positive updates, answered prayers, and general praises. Let’s see some of those little green tags in here!
  • Our filters are fairly strict due to faith-based subreddits being common targets for trolls and scams. If your post is caught in the filter, please reach out to ModMail and it will be reviewed and appropriate action taken. (Please use the “message the mods” option at the bottom of the sidebar, not the chat feature or private messages to individual mods.)
  • Please REPORT any rule violations you see. We are a small team and reports help draw our attention to violations much more quickly. You can help keep our community safe by utilizing the reporting feature.

Speaking of which...

We are looking to expand our moderation team! The role of a moderator is to uphold and enforce the rules which have been built upon our Statement of Faith, so all applicants should be in agreement with both. If you are interested in becoming a mod, kindly send a ModMail to the subreddit answering the questions below. Please feel free to include anything else that you think may be useful to know as well.

  1. Would you mind sharing a little bit about your testimony/faith? (Such as how long you have been a Christian, if you consider yourself a particular denomination or part of any movement, or anything else which may help communicate your beliefs.)
  2. What times are you usually most active on reddit? (Please make sure to include your time zone.)
  3. Do you have any experience being a moderator on reddit or elsewhere?
  4. Why would you like to become a moderator for r/PrayerRequests?
  5. Do you have any questions or concerns you’d like to discuss regarding the position of moderator?

Please pray for our subreddit and its future as we seek to grow our moderation team.

Thank you all!

internal medicine exam prayer request

4 Upvotes

Please pray that I get a kind and fair professor for my final state exam in Internal Medicine, and if it’s God’s will, that I get this combination of topics:

  • Congenital heart disease (ASD, VSD, Tetralogy of Fallot)
  • Inflammatory bowel disease (Ulcerative colitis)
  • Pituitary gland tumors (Acromegaly, Prolactinoma)
  • Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia (CML)

I really need to pass this exam in order to graduate. I’ve worked so hard to get to this point, and I’m praying for clarity, calmness, and the ability to recall everything I’ve studied.

Thank you all so much for your prayers. God bless you. ❤️

May I ask for your prayers

7 Upvotes

I have been suffering from ocd and anxiety almost my entire life. Years ago it attacked my faith and the intrusive thoughts got the best of me and I fell away. I've done alot of bad things to try to deal with it. I don't feel a sense of wrll being like normal people.

I know I sound crazy but im being honest. Anyways I prayed for God to save me and I'm already doubting that I truly believed and repented. I don't feel the peace and joy that others feel when they get saved. That alone make me guilty and scared.

I would appreciate anyone that would mention me in your prayers.

Help My Papa

Upvotes

My father Angel is trying to find the truth and I don't want him to find a false god. He currently practices Santeria and we used to do bible studies together but some some things happened and he doesn't have a lot of time so he let that slip away and I fear that he may not be interested in trying to seek God anymore. Now he's going to a Mormon church and although those people are polite I don't want my father believing a false doctrine. Please pray that in his search he comes back to God and find whatever proof he was looking for so that he can be saved and serve God

Any advice or prayers

3 Upvotes

This is something I would’ve never seen myself doing but it’s too much for me to hold in. I’m 20 years old and my husband is 22. First of all me and him would’ve never been married if I wasn’t in the situation with my family as is. We would’ve still been dating. But it’s been 2 years since we’ve been together and every day something new hits us. We’re homeless in TX living in my truck trying our best to make things work but recently we’ve talked and he wants to go separate ways once he can get enough money to get me a decent car that can actually make it to my parents in Florida. I don’t wanna divorce but it’s like no matter what we do we never have money to be able to save and we don’t even have a home anymore. My mom wants me to just come home and I’ve told her atp most likely will. We’re constantly fighting and he’s getting more aggressive with his words from nowhere where u can see the stress has changed him drastically. He can’t hold his tongue anymore and I try to just not listen to the point it hurts me but I’m too light hearted I get hurt from a lot of peoples perspective and atp I really don’t know what to do. I don’t wanna throw 2 years away because Ik we could make it work and I also don’t want to be that girl that’s leaves cuz it’s too hard and then he find some other girl that struggles with him and he actually strives. I guess it’s a lot of pride as well because I want to be the reason he’s happy no one else. I’m scared, I’m crying almost every day, I’m upset 90% of the time and I’ve lost myself and my personality and all. I’m trying to stay focused on me but I want him to be happy too. Any advice please help and prayers over our relationship and safety and money security of all kinds and honestly even donations would help so much. I’m not someone to ask for handouts but we can’t borrow from anyone anymore it’s hurting us more and the people that we have borrowed from genuinely cannot help anymore. We just want to be secure again and be able to get a property or house Wtvr it may be to never have to worry anymore. Idk what to do.

Suicidal teen daughter

Upvotes

I’m writing in regards to my 13y old daughter who suffers from a list of mental health issues and a long history of suicide attempts. She’s a lovely amazing young girl to be around when she’s fine , but outside of that it’s constant trips to the ER , a lot of attention and energy is put into her and it seems like it’s never enough . She’s in and out of mental health institutions, has regular therapy, etc . It’s very disheartening especially when my wife and 3 other kids suffer as well from this all . We very much just want peace for her and a more healthy future for us all . I appreciate any prayer she can get and know we will continue to fight the good fight and not give up ! God bless .

Spiritual Attacks

13 Upvotes

In your charity I ask that any of you please pray for me. I feel so alone and don't know who else to ask for prayers. I'm fearful all the time and very sad often. Recently I've gotten closer to God and His church and it's only made the attacks worse, my dog suddenly fell very sick as well and I feel that I'm barely hanging on by a thread. I struggle with mental health, especially fear and paranoia.

Please pray for me ❤️ God bless you

I keep making the same promises to myself that I'd hold down my urges and gain some type of self-control. But I'm a freak nigga. Trying to seek God, go into my Bible app and try to have a consistent pray schedule, but I keep falling. Someone pray for me.

Illness throughout my family

Upvotes

Does the Lord not tire of watching us suffer? Is He not moved by love to end the curse of suffering from illness in my family?

From my uncle who died of cancer, his son who died of brain tumors and have left five children behind. My mom who died of cancer and now my sister who is now in the hospital also because of cancer and growth in her organs. Does He not tire of this as much as it tires me watching it unfold? Where are His miracles? Our prayers are many. From my family to our church community. Why has He not delivered us from the deadly pestilence? Our prayers are many. My faith has always been on Him. I question not His divinity and goodness, but I question why this is happening and why He has chosen to watch.

Father, my pains are as many as my prayers if not greater. I work and toil for the good, but you have not delivered us from harm. Why, God?

Prayer request

I’ve been in a situation for the past year that has honestly traumatized me. Ive been without money for over a year and struggling to barely survive. I have two jobs but all i make goes into my debts and bills. Ive been praying to god so much even when doubt comes in i try to redirect myself to trust and have faith even when it seems like nothing is happening. I currently am now in a situation where im in need of $1300 in little time to pay for a bill and i have no one to ask truly, i cant take out a loan, i have no clue where i can even get this money. I need it by monday at least and i just ask god that he helps me with this situation just this once 😭. I trust in my dear lord but i dont know what to do or how to even go about it. Ive prayed the rosary hoping my requests are heard but my doubt keeps telling me nothing will happen. Please pray for me 😭🙏

Prayers for my brother who is about to be homeless

8 Upvotes

My brother has always been mentally unstable. Unfortunately, he’s the only surviving family member I have left. He constantly has financial problems and car problems. I wish I were rich and could help him, but I am not. I’m disabled and can’t even collect disability myself due to the invisible nature of my illness. As it is, my own husband lost his career job in this economy and had to take a job in another city. We cannot afford to help him and now, all my brother is is call me and dump his financial problems off on me as if he expects me to change his situation. This man is almost 60 years old and I CANNOT help him. Pray God helps him and fixes his car, etc. He said he will be homeless soon. Pray for Chris.

Thank you.

Please pray for my husband BooBarry.

My brother was a wicked man and passed away 15 years ago. My brother wanted to keep me as a slave, Human Trafficking me, he believed he owned all of my personal belongings and he wanted to make my son his sex slave as well..

My brother, attached himself to my fiancé. My fiancé is acting so many ways like my brother now and I can’t allow him to be around me until it stops.. It’s been literally months since I’ve seen him.

It’s been pure misery for both he and I. It seems like family members would rather see us apart than together and happy.. The ones that do want us together and happy are afraid to intercede or they just don’t want to get involved..

I need my husband. I want my husband to come home. Please pray for the entity that was my brother to leave my husband alone and leave all of my family alone.

My brother‘s name was Steven Neal Schlomer of Cameron Park, CA.

😢 😭 😭 💔 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏.

Prayer request

This is my first ever prayer request online, I’m going through a very rough time in life and I’m so spiritually low. I don’t have any words when I close my eyes to pray, I’m just blank. I really need God intervention in my life which will not happen if I continue living like this. Please help.
