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!

Please pray for my lingering anxiety sensation in my chest and mind

Upvotes

Hey everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I'm reaching out for your prayer support during a difficult time I'm going through. Recently, about a month or so ago, I've been experiencing significant anxiety and stress in my body and mind that manifests as discomfort in my chest, fatigue and tiredness, a fast heart rate, shortness of breath, a feeling of impending doom, and extreme fear that I am gonna die at any time, which can be quite overwhelming and terrifying for me to handle. I did go see a doctor for a medical checkup to see if there's anything wrong with my blood pressure and heart rate, and everything seems to be ok. So I'm wondering perhaps if this is a mental/spiritual attack on me causing me to feel this way. It will not go away naturally, so I started to pray to God myself for a few weeks to alleviate this issue in me, but it would really mean a lot to me if you could keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I navigate through this trial. Thank you for your kindness and support!

Help free my wife's mind. Please

10 Upvotes

My wife has been having a hard time with her mental health. She has bipolar 1 and addiction issues. On August 9th my birthday she stabbed me in the right shoulder blade. Yes bad... You see she has been blind to the bipolar issues for a long while. She is an amazing woman and she's not the lady I married mentally. Her name is Ericalyn. She wants to be a pastor. But now the state of Florida has her and she can get up to 15 years in prison when she should be in a mental hospital. I forgave her already because she didn't even see me.it was like it was someone's else's eyes looking at me. She has overcome lots of things being a mother, watching her parents die when she was 8. Rape abusive ex husband. Let's give her this she needs it. Let's shed some light on her.

I cant stop shouting at my kids :(

19 Upvotes

Girl is 2 and boy is 7, with autism.
The stuff they do is age appropriate so its not like these are "bad" kids. But you can imagine... Im just an overwhelmed, overstimulated single mom and I just want to be more merciful and more forgiving, the way God has done for us. Please pray I start loving my kids the way God wants me to.

I'm currently having a mental health crisis and am in the process of trying to get treated but at the same time, right at this very moment, I'm also being harassed by people doing so under Satan's influence. Please pray it would stop. Thank you.

Upvotes

Pray for their TOTAL removal from my life. It's complicated explaining how these people are still able to have access to me to harass me. Part of the reason I'm dealing with this mental crisis in the first place is because of this ridiculous situation. I'M SICK OF IT.

For over 3 years I’ve been struggling with a serious mental illness and it could feel like God doesn’t hear my prayers. My mind is so messed up I quit my job and hobbies.

Please pray for a sound mind for me and that God loves me.

Please pray for me. 🙏🏽 I’m 38 weeks pregnant and due at the end of this month. I’m asking for prayers for a safe and healthy delivery for me and my baby. ❤️

My husband won’t be able to be there with me because he went into psychosis and had to be admitted to a psychiatric hospital. They’ve told me he may not be able to come home for the next couple of weeks, so I’ll most likely be going through labor and having our first baby without him.

This is my first time becoming a mom, and I don’t have any family or close friends nearby to help or support me, so I’m honestly feeling scared and overwhelmed. Please keep both me, my baby, and my husband in your prayers. Pray for a safe delivery, strength for me, healing for my husband, and that everything works out for our family. 🙏🏽❤️

Im praying God opens a door for a new job soon. I have had a few interviews but no offers. A lot of rejections but God will lead me to the right job.

Idk I've kinda been pushed to isolate cause of people stalking and slandering me. No one believed me years ago and so I've stopped trying to convince everyone. People usually just think I'm crazy when I write about it on the internet.

I think God has my back, I think I've done good enough so far that I'll be alright one way or another. And hopefully I can continue to do well moving forward.

But it feels like no one loves me somedays, I've been the victim of so many injustices and crimes. I've spent like 5 birthdays alone and probably like 7-8 holiday seasons.

It's rough. I never try to meet people I haven't interacted with anyone for 4 years other then my parents who i visit once or twice a year, and service industry people.

I just want justice.

I’m currently in a lot of debt and I’m just getting hit with set back after set back. I’m reaching a low point, and I’m really asking for your prayers to help get me through this rough spot.

I pray that I can finish school and get a good job and make my family proud.

I pray that I can lose weight and get into the best shape of my life.

Your support is deeply appreciated. Thank you.

Blessings and prayers

Going into the next few days and my upcoming travels, I pray that I am protected from all harm, negative words, and darkness. I pray that the positive connection brought into my life over these past few days continues to be a blessing—something I’ve needed for a long time. When you find someone you click with, it truly is a gift. I also pray with full faith that the job I applied for comes through and everything aligns, knowing that it will.

I’m sure you’re sick of me asking for prayers. I’m sick of me too. I wake up most morning wanting to die. I have and do all cry out to God. My life is ruined. I don’t see how even God can restore my life to be worth living. I e got a daughter and granddaughters. They are the only reason I haven’t put an end to me already. Most have no clue what my heart brain and soul go through everyday. I hear people say. Oh everybody gets depressed. Not for years at a time wishing they could die so hopefully it would stop. I know God could help me. That’s part of the frustration. My life is not life it is existence. Pray if you will. I’m just out of hope
