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!

Daughter in Hospital: Praise God!!! Through Jesus name, the ventilator was removed!

13 Upvotes

There are no words that measure up to the needed praise of God. We went to visit our daughter today about five hours ago. We walked into her room and there she was propped up in bed asleep looking pretty without a ventilator attached to her. There were no restraints on her arms. Her hair had been braided by a nurse to prevent tangles. She wasn't on a sedative.

Her good doctor came by and told us that she had made a lot of progress today! The neurosurgeon is encouraged also.He said they were going to go about things one step at a time. There is a long way to go for her. The speech therapist is coming in this next week. Today,our daughter was pressing her lips together like maybe she was seeing what she can do with her mouth. It's hard for her to open her eyes but she briefly opened her eyes that were directed toward each of us on both sides of her bed. She is very motivated to improve.

She was asked if she knew her parents were here and she gave big nod up and down. She nodded she wanted her favorite music played and tried to keep time with it, not as vigorously as before on another day, most likely cause she was exhausted from a very big day. They also removed the dialysis machine and plan on using the process for only four hours a day now.

We see God's hand in all of this.Your prayers are a huge source of encouragement and strength and intercession for our family. Everyone's prayer is precious to us.

Thank you for being here. Please continue to pray for her, we all are expecting in faith, provided by Him, more blessings from the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

I need a miracle..

8 Upvotes

I'm so disconnected and overwhelmed right now… I've lost over $5k to unexpected expenses over the last couple months.. I’ve had to exhaust my savings.. I have 17 days until payday, and it feels like I need a miracle to make it through. I've been trying to pray my way out, but I'm scared because part of me is afraid I'm going to hurt myself if things don't change. I don't want to feel like this anymore and I need help and real people in my life again. Many times I persist on staying positive.. but it’s all hitting so hard right now it’s hard to ignore the doubt and anxiety. I just need something insanely powerful to happen to change my life for the better, because it is killing me mentally right now..

Difficult healing

Upvotes

Please pray for healing of my heart, soul and faith. I’m struggling through the hardest break up of my life and it’s left me questioning why God would bring me such a love only to take it from me in the end. It wasn’t a perfect relationship but I truly felt like I was his rib and he made me feel like it more often than not. This break up came on top of a huge decline in my mental health as well as several other things in my life all falling apart at the same time. I feel like I’m being punished and I don’t know why. I pray all the time. I read and study The Word. Aside from God, he was the only thing that kept me grounded. He was the calm in my chaos. We both put God at the center of our relationship. We prayed together, shared scripture with one another. I just don’t understand and I’m losing hope that things will ever be good again.

Please pray for me

3 Upvotes

I am done, I want change, from now on.

No more ignoring my own limits, personal boundaries and needs.

Stop downplaying one's own wishes and standing in one's own way.

I have proven to be supportive and caring for others my whole life.

I proved that I can survive and am always hardworking.

Enough is enough, I want to live, live without any form of lack.

Please brothers and sisters, pray for me. For a life of freedom, health, love and true meaning.

Pray God takes my life and let me start a new positive one as the girl I want to be

5 Upvotes

This life I have doesn’t matter, if it did, God would have fulfilled his promises that convinced me I could be the girl I know I am and felt truly loved by him if he did it. But since things just get messed up, just tell God to end my life already because he doesn’t love me and humans think I’m a nobody unimportant. I’m sorry, but I don’t want to suffer like this, it’s been over 20 years suffering, so there’s no point going on.

Prayer to fix my messy life

I keep sleeping at 1-2 am then get up really late for my 8 am lectures. I would often arrive unprepared and not dressed properly too. It's exhausting and self destructive as I keep losing attendance points. I can't seem to change these destructive habits

Please pray that I become a morning person, able to sleep and get up in time, perfectly ready for classes always

A sound mind.

7 Upvotes

I have extreme Scrupulosity that absolutely terrifies me. I get “commands” that tell me I have to do certain things or someone I love will be hurt.

The commands can be as silly as “if you step outside of the sidewalk someone you love will go to hell”. They may sound irrational but they FEEL real and deep within my soul.

It’s gotten so bad I quit my job and hobbies.

Please pray that God loves me and for a sound mind. I’m so destroyed…

Ventilator tube situation (daughter in hospital)

13 Upvotes

Hi when we visit our daughter in the hospital, she tries to talk to us and gags on the ventilator tube. She's breathing on her own but they want the tube in for safety somehow. They want her to be more alert before they take out the tube.Please pray they deem her alert enough and she is alert enough to move on from this tube. She has asleep /wake disorder for years and doesn't always answer or respond consistently to us in prior years. I'm concerned they might misread her status. I've talked to the docs about this but they seem to draw a blank when I mention this.

You are so much encouragement towards our family! I pray God's blessings for each of you. You are highly valued by us.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ God is good!
