Maranatha Singers Song
Compilation (3 hours 37 minutes)
“First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all
because your faith is being proclaimed throughout the whole world. For God, whom I serve in my spirit in the
preaching for the gospel of His Son, is my witness as to how unceasingly I make
mention of you, always in my prayers making request, if perhaps now at last by
the will of God I may succeed in coming to you.” Romans 1:8-10
“Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to
those who are under the Law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world
may become accountable to God; because by the works of the Law no flesh will be
justified in His sight; for through the Law come the knowledge of sin.” Romans 3:19-20
“For while we were still helpless, at the right time
Christ died for the ungodly. For one
will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would
dare to even die, but God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while
were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”
Romans 5:6-8
“For the death that He died, He died to sin, once for
all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God.” Romans 6:10
“For you have not received a spirit of slavery leading to
fear again, but you have received a spirit of adoption as sons by which we cry
out, ‘Abba! Father!’” Romans 8:15
“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.
"For whom He foreknew, He also
destined to become conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the
first-born among many brethren; and whom He predestined these He also called;
and whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He
also glorified.” Romans 8:28-30
For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to
everyone who believes.” Romans 10:4
I am thankful today for the ability to see, to read, to
think, to write … that God has given me the privilege to share and serve others
with daily reminders that God is good, He is perfect, He is sovereign and His
love reaches to the highest places.
Take care, your servant and friend in Christ, Darlene (who
prays for you each morning).

NEW PRAYER REQUESTS
·
Hans –
a dear friend in Germany, with cancer has been having serious heart pain for
the last two days. His monthly
immunotherapy was scheduled for tomorrow.
The doctor decided to try to manage the pain until he goes to the
hospital tomorrow when they can investigate the source of his pain. Please pray for strength through the pain and
mercy. Continue to pray for his
healthcare providers, his patience and wisdom.
Pray he is surrounded by faithful and compassionate Christian friends
who will support him through this journey.
Pray for his Mom (age 83) is unwell herself, that their time together
will be filled with extraordinary good memories and lots of love.

Isaias and Judith
(Ambassadors for Christ the Philippines) – the Philippines has been
devastated by constant batterings from typhoons. Their ministry (New Website for
information: https://afcph.org/
) faces so many challenges and now many of their leadership group and groups of
believers have lost everything and their worship centres have been
destroyed. There is also a growing threat
of China claiming their country. Pray
for those who lead, administer, work, teach and contribute to the ministry. Pray our Father continues to keep these
servants strong, in good health, safe and supported and that they keep a
balance in their lives. They need funds badly now. Please pray for them. Go to the website or send encouragement to Isaias

My brother, Tim – just received a new bi-pap machine and already
is seeing benefits. Pray for his
continued wisdom and patience in managing his COPD (chronic-obstructive
pulmonary disease) and arthritis. Pray
his doctors are attentive, wise and compassionate. Pray for Barb, his wife for her strength and
compassion. Continue to grow their faith
so they can share Christ with others.
·
USA – Pray the Lord will demonstrate His power in
unexpected and uniting ways during these times of unrest and confusion. Help hearts settle and rest in Him
alone. Let the truth of God’s Word and
ways overcome the drive to destroy our founding, Bible-based values. For Christ-centre, Bible-based revival in the
USA and religious freedom for Christians wherever they may be.
·
J&R – recently
had the privilege of sharing the Gospel with them and would appreciate prayers
that God uses His words in their hearts to draw them to Him for Eternity!
·
Kevin and Sandy
Currel - (in Melbourne) Kevin has a wonderful ministry in teaching
through images and words and has created many Christian resources. (To learn more: https://www.kevincurrell.com/
). He just had another procedure, which looks good and will have the results
next week. Please continue to pray for
him, especially that God will supply the funds needed for this extraordinary
time.
·
Peyton
- eldest granddaughter of Jeff and Rachael.
Pray for this lovely woman of God as she goes off to college, that she
remains safe and strong in her beliefs and convictions and continues to
encourage many with her loving faithfulness to the Lord.
·
Tracey –
slowly healing from a fall where she broke four ribs. Pray she will be patient and that the pain
will be easily managed.
·
USA President
Donald Trump – As Christians it
is our responsibility to pray for our leaders and trust that God has a plan for
the USA through this man. If you
doubt the importance of his appointment, just look at the baseless antagonism
against him. Surely Satan is NOT happy and means to thwart God’s plan. Pray someone helps President Trump and Melania understand the true meaning of a
personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Pray they will both have an insatiable hunger to read God’s Word for
themselves. Pray God sends a
Bible-Believing Christian to regularly disciple them in the Truth. Pray God shuts the mouths of the false
prophets who regularly circle around them.
Pray for those in full-time service
During this time, when the entire world is struggling to understand this new ‘plague’, it is critical for us to uphold our Christian leaders. They will be needed everywhere. Pray for their wisdom, safety, ingenuity, strength and for their families.
Pray for those with ongoing health concerns
Many of us have family, friends and loved ones who are fragile health wise. It is important to protect them in practical ways and most important we must pray even more for them that the Lord will have mercy on them during this challenging time.
