Hey friends and welcome back to another Friday Pray Together episode.

I have to apologize, first of all, we had some technical difficulties with the website this week, and it actually was all the way down, which means the prayer submission page was down as well.

We've got it all back up, so we should have opportunity for people to submit requests again, but I'm sure there were many who were not able

to submit requests this week because of that technical issue. And I apologize, we're working on

a solution to keep the website up no matter what happens because the prayer request received from you

are important and the support of individuals through the not a needy person platform, which is also connected to the website, are vitally important. And so we want to make sure that those things don't go down again in the future. So please be praying for us about that, that we can find the right solutions and we can keep things running so that your needs can be met and the Lord can be glorified through the work we're doing. All right, today we have five prayer requests that we're going to pray for today.

So I want to ask you to come with me into the throne room of grace as we pray for these five people and their needs.

I want to just encourage you to remember our God is faithful.

Our God hears our prayers.

Our God works in wisdom, in his divine timing to bring

about the answers that are needed and we need to trust him in that as we pray. So let's do that right now.

Lord, we start out with an anonymous request, a dad who's asking us to pray for his 14-year-old

daughter, who doesn't know you as her Savior and who is battling negative thoughts.

Father, we pray that you will protect her from the attacks of the enemy,

who would want her to take her life in order to live in bondage.

Father, we don't want to see that for her.

We want to see her set free in the name of Jesus.

So it's in that name, that name of Jesus that we ask that you'll draw her to yourself

so that she will find salvation in Christ and become free of these negative thoughts.

But we also ask that you will give her the desire to want to be with her dad's family who know you so that she can be encouraged by them she can

learn from them she can grow in relationship with you with them and lord so that they can be

unified as a family we pray father that you will break through whatever barriers are there
