All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

Prayer Request For Friend

Greetings,

I am requesting prayer for a man in his late 40's who has had a severe stroke and is now under total care. His care is that of having total dependancy on others as he cannot do anything for himself in his condition. He is in critical condition. They have also found out he is HIV Positive, and those who know him, and him, have been taken by surprise in this. He was once into drugs years ago, and there is speculation this is where he has contracted it from.

His name is Tony Borelli. So I am requesting prayer for him and his family in these recent developments.

I would also, more importantly, request prayer for his desire to accept a relationship in Jesus Christ.

Thank you, and
Sincerely In Christ,

James Cook

Thank you ever so kindly in lifting this man up in prayer. The greatest miracle would be for Tony to accept Jesus Christ as his Lord and Saviour as there is no other miracle as powerful as this since it deals with eternity.

Thank you James, I will certainly lift Tony and his family up to the Lord. I will also pray for you as you provide a Christian witness to Tony, family and friends and for your steadfastness and strength in the Lord as you are with them . Your brother in Christ, Wally

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you for lifting him up in prayer. He is in great need for a miracle, but the greatest miracle would be to accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Saviour in his life. He is a good man, but being good does not open the door to Heaven. I pray that he sees that light that only can come from the Holy Spirit, and come under the Grace of God through this difficult time.

God Bless You
Thank you once again.
Jesse James

James, I thank God for your compassion for this helpless man. I pray the Lord will use you to lead this precious soul, Tony Borelli, to Christ for the salvation of his soul at this critical time of his llife. I pray too that the Lord will send him His angels of mercy, good Samaritans, to help and care for him in his helplessness. God bless you, brother, and thanks for bringing this sad situation to our attention for prayer.

Thank you my friend for your prayers. They mean so much as there is no where else we can turn to in times of strife like we can with God and His children. With each one of the brothers and sisters there can be power in all the prayers that go forth for another soul. I believe that God loves it when we can turn to each other, then have us all go to Him for our concerns. WHAT A LOVING GOD WE SERVE.
God Bless you PoemiaDei

Dear heavenly Father, I and our Mt.Everest Prayer Tower pray to brother Tony Borelli who get severe stroke is under sickness and the burden he carries. You also know his heart. Lord, I ask you to be with that brother now, working in his life. Let your will be done in his life. If there is a sin that needs to be confessed and forgiven, Lord, please help him to see his need and confess. Lord, I pray for that brother because your Word says I should pray for his healing. I believe you hear this earnest prayer from my heart and that it is powerful because of your promise as "And their prayer offered in faith will heal the sick, and the Lord will make them well. And anyone who has committed sins will be forgiven. Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and wonderful results.” James 5:15-16
I have faith in you to heal him, but I also trust in the plan you have for his life. Lord, I don't always understand your ways, and why that brother has to suffer, but I trust you. I ask that you look with mercy and grace toward that brother. Nourish him spirit and soul in this time of suffering and comfort him with your presence. Let him know you are there with him through this difficulty. And may you be glorified in his life and also in mine in the precious Jesus name I pray.
Amen

Dear Lord,
I pray for this young man right now. I ask for healing for him as you did for my other brother in-law in June. He had a stroke also. You healed him.He is back to work and he now even emails me. His speech is back also. I pray for this man to get saved Lord. Indeed I do. .

People who read this. I ask also. My brother in-laws never got saved. They got healed but we did aks for salvation.At the time .
I ask the body of Christ along with this request here for this young man that you also will remember salvation for Jim and Jake my brother in-law. . Plus that God removes their smoking.

heavenly Father, you are intimately aware of the struggle Tony Borelli is experiencing, the pain and the despair. You know the desire of his heart, to be healed from a severe stroke. i ask now for Your healing touch. i know You are able, and just like in Bible times, You can heal Tony. i also understand that You will choose what's best for Tony. i pray that through this trial, Tony will draw close to You, and that You will be his comfort and strength. i pray that ultimately whatever happens to Tony, You will be glorified through him. I pray this in the name of Jesus, amen.
