Relentless prayer is a relentless pursuit in seeing God’s will done on earth.
“Now it is true that sometimes when people are experiencing difficult circumstances they get upset if they believe people are not praying for them; and in their struggles they can seek to make other Christians feel guilty or they might say something out of line. If this happens, we simply need to realize they are hurting and probably stressed out and frustrated, possibly even scared; and so it is best to give them the benefit of the doubt, while redirecting them to Jesus Christ whom easily carries their every burden – 1 Peter 5:7.” – excerpt taken from Revival of the Hearts by Alysa VanderWeerd
CURRENT EVENTS
Jamie and Elijah Snow – Jamie and Elijah Snow were celebrating their 10th Wedding Anniversary in Cancun, however, the first night there Elijah did not return to their hotel room. Jamie soon learned his dead body was found wedged in a window next door at the Sunset Royal Beach. The police told her there wasn’t any foul play and that he died by suffocation; and then they later described it as “murder without suspect.” The resorts would not share any security video surveillance. Jamie examined her husband’s body and found many horrible bruises and gashes on his head that revealed he was beat to death. Praying for healing for Jamie and her daughters and for their salvation, and for the murder suspect to be found. Also praying for God’s protection for all who are on vacation, wanting to have a good time – that all who have evil intentions are stopped and apprehended.
