Yes, FREE. the Lord is good and able to do far above and beyond what we can ask or think. But He does tell us to ask, as so we do. And He does tell us to pray, and so we do. And He tells us to encourage one another, and so I post my prayers so that the one who made the request knows that someone gave their request attention. I am glad you are praying over the requests regularly, too. That is wonderful.

Thank you , D. I look each week to see what is newly listed. God will bring us to the right one soon. Would stay in this house if it was one story, but it would be too costly to add on a master suite downstairs as opposed to selling and building what suits us best. God knows our hearts. he will guide us and set apart the property for us where no one else will be able to buy it out from under us. Your prayers are appreciated. I know you understand our need.

Having arthritis and disc degeneration in my lower back is the impetus for us to seek this change now rather than later. God knows best. We accept that.

Fully agree Richard & GiGi. I think of Exodus 20:4 and Deuteronomy 4:15-19, where any depiction of God as holding any form that can cause man to look towards the image thereby misdirecting his worship, is completely forbidden. Sadly, in many Churches & homes this important Truth is discarded.

Dear Gabriel, I am praying for you and Gabby to be re-united.

Dear Lord Jesus, We lift up Gabby, please cause her heart to begin to desire to be together with Gabriel once again. Prepare both Gabriel and Gabby for this renewed relationship. Found this relationship on You and your grace. Cause them to love one another how You wish for them to love each other. Keep them in holy relationship with one another. Teach them to pray and read Your word together. Guide them to attend church fellowship together and receive strength and support from mature believers. Remove from each of them the scars and ill-effects that broke them apart so that they both can re-unite in a healthy way. We ask this in Your name Jesus. Amen.

Dear Michael, I will pray for your friends.

Dear Lord Jesus, we lift up these three friends of Michael's who need Your healing touch to free them from covid and cancer. Help their bodies to be strengthened to be able to fight these health problems successfully, and restore each one to good health. We ask these things in Your name Jesus. Amen.

Dear Devadas, I will pray for you tonight.

Dear Lord Jesus, Guide Devadas in the steps he needs to take to become debt-free in the time frame You have chosen for it to be satisfied. Help Devadas to discipline himself to stick to a good, reasonable plan to pay on this debt each pay. We ask that You will prevent any big unexpected financial issues to arise over this time so that the plans You have for Him to follow will not be frustrated. We ask this in Your name Jesus. Amen.

Lord God please bless Stephanie's appointment. Let Thy will be done. Give her the desires of her heart as she trusts You and puts You first in everything Father. Thank You . In Jesus name amen. I pray that You will receive all the glory Hallelujah.

Alex,

Daniel 12:1 is talking about the day of the Lord, the 6th trumpet strike, the fall of Babylon, the abomination of desolation, the great tribulation. The world will turn into a curse.

Ezekiel 38 talks of two clouds to cover the land. Ezekiel 21:19-20 talks about attacking 2 nations from one land. These two lands represent America and Israel, both houses of Israel, Gods people.

Ezekiel 21 has several depictions of Israel, "my people" vs 12 as being the subject of the slaughter.

The attack is against America, Israel and every nation allied with America. Isaiah 24:20 states the earth will be hit so hard that it will be knocked of its axis, the sun and moon will refuse to shine 1/3rd the day as a result.

Who will stop Russia besides nobody, Rev 13:3; they have God on their side. Isaiah 13:1-6, they come from a far country, "even the Lord with them". Joel 2:11, the Lord uttered His voice before "His army". God is preparing the sixth trumpet army (Russia) to annihilate the fifth trumpet army (US) to dust, Revelation 9.

Nothing like reading about it in real time, just as the little horn Daniel 7:8 starts to make his move.

Day of the Lord: Isaiah 13, Isaiah 21:1-9, Isaiah 24, Isaiah 47, Ezekiel 21:1-24, Ezekiel 38:1-17, Jeremiah 50 & 51, Joel 2:1-11, Revelation 18 & Luke 21:20-24 (Israel's fall in same hour).

Jennifer, I will pray for you.

Dear Lord Jesus, I lift up Jennifer to you and ask that you will give her the answers she needs each day while she is at work. Cause each day to go well and not overspend her too much so that she can take care of off work responsibilities. We ask these things in Your name Jesus. Amen.

Great Truths & facts, clearly declared. Thank you Richard & GiGi.

Dear E. Please know that i do pray for your requests whenever I see them posted.

Tonight I will pray for the little one.

Lord Jesus, there is a wee one that is in need. Please help this child with who is recovering from abuse. Heal he/him. Bring him/her restful, peaceful sleep each night and train her body to sleep all night without wetting the bed. We know that You care for him/her and are able to help her/is every need. So, we pray for this child Your name Jesus. Amen.

David, every time I read your requests, I pray for them. Thank you for reminding us.

OOPS, I should have wrtiiten 2/22-2/24 not 9/22-9/24. Brain blip. Thanks for all of your prayers

Please pray for my family. My husband admits that he is addicted to pornography. He emotionally and psychologically abuses me and the children. Sometimes it is physical abuse. I am a stay at home mom with our youngest, who is a toddler. My husband is negatively affecting everyone in our household by his actions, and acts like he is justified and assumes that no one can stop him.

Good evening. First thank you Gigi! Second, nice post Richard. Amen.

Thank you so much for this incredible website. Is there a place where I can purchase this incredible Bible so that I can listen to it all the way through without having to load each chapter. It would be so good to listen to while I work.

Thank you very much.

Perhaps these might complement the other answers.

Matthew 27:32

Mark 15:21

I would love to understand my bible and to really get to know about my Lord I'm in a church but I'm not learning anything there

Lord please help Debra and work in her family. Draw near to them. In Jesus name. Lord You know every need. Thank You Jesus.

Lord God You are able to bring healing to this precious soul. She's been through so much please bring her strength and healing. Let her see and hold her grandchild, completely well. In Jesus name. Thank You Lord! Amen.

Thank you GiGi for all that you've done for me personally on this site. All your prayers. And all your answers and wisdom. The Lord bless and keep you, I pray. I'm humbly praying for your health and land. In Jesus name. Shalom.

Dianne, my heart breaks for you right now. I'm so sorry this is happening to you. I pray right now that God will find a way to work this out and receive all the glory! I pray for your thoughts and emotions that the Lord would work a miracle for you. And give you peace. I agree together with GiGis prayer for you 100%. Do your very best to think of ways to love and bless those who hurt you. And let Jesus take care of the rest. I will be praying for you.

Hello, someone else recently asked this question as well.

I don't think there's 100% proof of one way or the other, as wood from a cross comes from a tree, so I think calling it either would be correct.

But my opinion is that it was both. Based on my Israel tour and my understanding that trees were commonly used for crucifixion, I think they carried the cross beam and nailed it to existing trees, as that is more practical than driving a vertical post into the ground from scratch each time. The horizontal beam forms an X cross on the tree which is why its called a cross. This is part speculation and opinion, not based on much evidence other than some verses calling it 'tree' like Acts 13:29.

Praise the Lord for all the true saints. You are correct, without the doctrines of the Lord how can one know that they are truly saved.

Thank you Gigi for your faithfulness to His word. God bless and shine His face upon you and your family. Take care and be safe through this pandemic and our current political turmoil.

In Christ Jesus name...

Luke Ch 8 V 1-18 , especially V 14 might be helpful to u . Remember that we r not of this world so we shouldn't allow the things of this life to have too strong a hold over us . Where your treasure is is where your heart will b . Thank God for your blessings and help others whenever u can . If u let him , Christ will show u the way he wants u to behave , just listen out for that still small voice .

did jesus die on a cross or a tree?

I assume you meant to ask:

Could Judas who hung himself be saved?

If your question is specifically about Judas Iscariot the answer is no with near certainty, but he was already doomed before he chose to hang himself based on Jesus' statements about him and the pronouncements against him in the Gospels and Acts from even before the moment he betrayed Jesus. His death by hanging himself seems to have been viewed as a fitting end for a wicked man, much the way Haman's death by hanging on the gallows he built for Mordecai in the book of Ruth is viewed as a fitting end for a man who utterly hated God's people. Judas' judgement has in many ways been made known in advance much more as a warning against betraying our brothers and Christ, than as a warning against how his life ended as a consequence of that betrayal.

If your question is instead:

Could anyone who hung himself (or committed suicide by some other means) be saved?

I would have to leave that decision to God. I have known a Christian brother who had a vital ministry in music who ultimately committed suicide several years after he moved on to serve elsewhere. I didn't know him or his family well enough to get a real understanding of what led him to make that decision. Understandably those who knew him better than me focused on his gifts and the moments in his life that affirmed he had faith. I choose to focus on that as well.

Having known and survived long-term clinical depression myself, it takes real faith to endure the pain, despair and seeming hopelessness of that condition. I am much more concerned with praying for mercy upon those that experience it than on trying to know God's mind regarding anyone that has not survived it and who's judgement has not been revealed in advance. Through my experience with depression I have learned that our lives are loved by more people than we ever realized and we will see it if we choose to put any pain we know into Christ's hands and praise him as we endure it.

Genesis 17,

I've heard it explained it was a perversion thing. Note they were adults, Genesis 6:18, Genesis 7:7,13, Genesis 8:16,18,

Genesis 9:22, honestly ask yourself would you go tell others? Or cover? Who showed their father honor? Genesis 9:23

Noah, "knew what his younger son had done to him." Genesis 9:24, it wasn't that he just saw.

There's additional information, to help readers understand, Genesis 9:18, Genesis 9:22, Genesis 9:25, Genesis 10:15, note Canaan, 1st recorded rape of a girl Genesis 33:18, Genesis 34:1-2, & Sodom & Gomorrah, Genesis 10:19, Genesis 13:13, Genesis 18:20, Genesis 18, Gen. 19,

Isaiah 3:9, Jeremiah 23:14, Ezekiel 16:49, Jude 1:7, it appears to point to a root of evil started with that person.

Hopefully this is helpful

scDavid thank you for speaking truthfully about our Lord.

Many people do not seek to have sound doctrine concerning Jesus, our Heavenly Father, and the Holy Spirit and their relationship within the Godhead. I've meet many believers who say things like, "I don't think doctrine really matters as long as we have Jesus as our Savior." And in my heart I think, "Which "Jesus" are you believing in?" But most of these people do not really want to discuss matters of doctrine or examine their beliefs against the whole of Scripture. I am one who sincerely desires to know God truthfully. So, I study doctrinal matters along with what the Scriptures say.
