Prayers of Thanks -
07-02-2008, 06:44 PM
Honestly guys, some of the prayer requests on here seem more like curses!
I've started this thread to give folks an opportunity their prayers of thanks here to the Lord. So please.. no negativity, pro-war or racist posts on this thread! It's all about experiencing the joy of answered prayer.
As a start, - I would like to thank the Lord our God for bringing the courage and resolve He has given to those who fight for human rights in countries where there are oppressive regimes, like China, Zimbabwe, Myanmar and Iran.
- I would like to thank him for the brave firefighters who saved a young cousin of mine last year from a house fire in San Francisco.
- I thank the Lord that I have a job to go to, and can feed my family and keep a roof over their heads.
- I would like to thank God for the beautiful warm sunshine we are having today in NC.
- I thank the Lord the leaders of the world, for all their fallacies, have not been so foolish to use nuclear weapons against people in over 60 years.
- I thank the Lord that my good friend Julian can still laugh loudly, even though he knows he has only a few weeks left to live.
- I thank the Lord that I am blessed to be a member of a wonderful church (http://www.parkroadbaptist.org/), with wonderful pastors and a super congregation.
So friends, please post your lists on this thread - focus on what's positive in your life, and thank the Lord here for it
Great Big Love,
Jacques.

You know Jacques that's a good idea! Thank you. I want to Thank God for everything, everday, everywhere, everytime!
Matthew:
5:17 Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
5:18 For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled
10:21 And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death.
10:34 Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.

Friend, I am all in favour of thanking the Lord, but some of your examples seem pretty freakish.

If God wanted to, He could topple those regimes in an instant. Thanking the Lord for the situation in Zimbabwe, Burma and Iran seems pretty weird to me.

I shall pray that your young cousin gets the message, and repents of the sin of sodomy before God kills him for real.

Praise God. No argument here.

Again, seems reasonable.

I thank the Lord for limiting us to the use of depleted uranium, cluster bombs, VX gas, and similar things. Truly, His compassion knows no bounds.
Quote:

You're thanking the Lord for killing your friend? That is just weird.

I thank the Lord that I am blessed to be a member of a wonderful church ( http://www.landoverbaptist.net/), where we actually follow God's commands and have a congregation that isn't just made up of hellbound trash.
O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.
God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

Are you sure? Where in the Bible does it say that people should fight for human rights against their governments? Instead, I read this:
Rom. 13:1-7: Let every soul be subject unto the higher powers. For there is no power but of God: the powers that be are ordained of God. Whosoever therefore resisteth the power, resisteth the ordinance of God: and they that resist shall receive to themselves damnation. For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to [execute] wrath upon him that doeth evil. Wherefore [ye] must needs be subject, not only for wrath, but also for conscience sake. For for this cause pay ye tribute also: for they are God's ministers, attending continually upon this very thing. Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute [is due]; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour.
This church is dedicated to preaching True Christianity™ and the King James Bible exactly as they are, with no alterations to make them more politically correct for modern liberals. If you think that we've misquoted or twisted Scripture or quoted any verse out of context, please explain in detail how we've done so. Otherwise, if what you read on this site offends you, then you're offended by Almighty God and His Word, not by us.

Well it seems pretty obvious that God isn't listening to your hippy prayers.
Instead of praying for special rights for unsaved trash in those evil axis countries, why don't you pray for the safety of our Godly Troops who are even as we speak sending islamofacists to hell over in iraquistan? If it wasn't for them, you'd be married to a camel.
So, why do you hate America?
Here is a partial list from just a few scripture verses:
Hypocrites (Matthew 24:51), The Unforgiving (Mark 11:26), Homosexuals (Romans 1:26, 27), Fornicators (Romans 1:29), The Wicked (Romans 1:29), The Covetous (Romans 1:29), The Malicious (Romans 1:29), The Envious (Romans 1:29), Murderers (Romans 1:29), The Deceitful (Romans 1:29), Backbiters (Romans 1:30), Haters of God (Romans 1:30), The Despiteful (Romans 1:30), The Proud (Romans 1:30), Boasters (Romans 1:30), Inventors of evil (Romans 1:30), Disobedient to parents (Romans 1:30), Covenant breakers (Romans 1:31), The Unmerciful (Romans 1:31), The Implacable (Romans 1:31), The Unrighteous (1Corinthians 6:9), Idolaters (1Corinthians 6:9), Adulterers (1Corinthians 6:9), The Effeminate (1Corinthians 6:9), Thieves (1Corinthians 6:10), Drunkards (1Corinthians 6:10), Reviler (1Corinthians 6:10), Extortioners (1Corinthians 6:10), The Fearful (Revelation 21:8), The Unbelieving (Revelation 21:8), The Abominable (Revelation 21:8), Whoremongers (Revelation 21:8), Sorcerers (Revelation 21:8), All Liars (Revelation 21:8)
