    Prayer request for a friend who is suicidal

    Hi good folks of Talk-Jesus... I have an urgent request for prayer- a friend of mine is struggling immensely right now, and is on the verge of considering suicide. Please pray for her to come to the light, and be comforted by the Holy Spirit during this difficult time. Her name is Hope.

    Many thanks and God bless you all.

    Romans 11:32 For God has bound all men over to disobedience so that he may have mercy on them all.

    Thank you Father for Hope's life,we know you desire mercy for her.

    Proverbs 21:30 There is no wisdom, no insight, no plan that can succeed against the LORD.
    Thank you Father that no thing,person or plan can succeed in Hope's life except that plan that you initiated in her.

    Proverbs 21:1 The king’s heart is in the hand of the LORD; he directs it like a watercourse wherever he pleases.
    Thank you Father for guiding Hope's heart into truth.

    Proverbs 16:9 In his heart a man plans his course, but the LORD determines his steps.
    Thank you Father for guiding Hope's every step.

    Proverbs 20:24 A man’s steps are directed by the LORD. How then can anyone understand his own way?

    Hope can't understand her own way,thank you Lord that you are the way and shining your light in her heart and mind.

    John 16:24 Hitherto have ye asked nothing in my name: ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

    I ask all these things in Jesus name so that Hope's joy and our joy may be full.Amen

    Whenever you think of your friend remember God is doing those things in her life so govern yourself accordingly and thank him.I Pray that you will have answers when she starts asking questions.
    Don't give up the fervent prayer of a righteous one avails much.

    I appreciate the prayers, thank you. I spoke with her yesterday, and she seemed to be doing a bit better. Light will prevail against darkness. :)

    A friend of yours?Philosopher? Then indeed Hope is our friend as well! Of course my prayers will be for her,and for you,for in you Philosopher she has her name made self evident HOPE!

    For love which is in you is her hope,that of Jesus.( 1 Cor 13:7) bears all things,believes all things,hopes all things,endures all things. Love cannot fail,because you, as all of us work so hard to do, to keep love alive in us. As you said light will prevail against the darkness, all they have to do is see that light of love in us!! So brother even as your light shines in Jesus we join with you, to bring a fuller light unto her,we lift her up to the very throne of God,that the enemy may not take a lost sheep away from we who are looking for her. Blessing to you as well bro! Please do keep us posted on her recovery thanks!

    Thanks for your prayers and encouragement, Brighthouse. I always tend to look out for your posts, because Jesus shines through you so radiantly, as your username also entails. :)

    Hello Philosopher,

    It's lovely of you to bring your friend before God in prayer. We don't know what happens in the heavens each time we pray, but I bet it's huge. We will all be praying for Hope during this low point in her life and I can see the Lord Jesus, scrambling over the rocks to find His lost sheep named Hope. And He will find her. Love and thoughts to you also.

    Lord Jesus, let your faith join her faith as your faith is with all of our faith in you as Christian brothers and sisters in our global multicultural community. Our combined community faith with you Lord Jesus will keep our thoughts morally pure even though our bodies made of flesh and bone have recorded feelings of sinful memory experiences that are kept under control by your powerful spiritual protection or shield of the Word of God, to weaken forever Satan's deceiving power of sin like a plant seed that cannot grow without a drop of water. Lord Jesus, your almighty power of the holy spirit is more powerful than all the suns in the universe when our faith is focused on your peace and hope. When you return in the future Lord Jesus, you will transform us with new minds and bodies of Christ so that we can socialize together in perfect youth and health, with no signs of sin that causes damaging emotional experiences of failure and disease - in the most massive and most modern community: the Kingdom Of God on a new Earth.:*:.
