Hello everyone. My Pasors wife and good friend Joy just had a mild stroke and is in the hospital. My pastor is 3000 miles away in Cairo on a mission trip. Her sons are with her at the hospital, and say that she is recovering, but still speaking with a slur. Please please pray for her. She is such a wonderful woman who has led many to Christ, and inspires everyone she meets. She is loved by many, and we would just be so thankful for all of your prayers for her quick and total recovery.

Yes of course I will pray for your Pastors wife and sons and even with your Pastor that can't be their at this time. Dear Lord, I know that in the time of need, that you are their. Please put your hands on this Family and make them feel your presence. Give the Pastor a sense of peace, as he is far away, and can't be with his family at this time. Have Joy be a vessel of what you can do, if you believe in GOD, through her someone might need that strength and come to you. Plus Lord, thank Heather for putting this on the computer, for Christians every where to unite. For where ever two or more gather you will be their. In Jesus name Amen.

Glory, glory, hallelljuah!!!! I first give all of the praise to the one who is the head of my life. I come boldly to you Father God asking you to go to the hospital room and cover your child who is laying there with your blood. Cause your blood never looses it's power. Father I ask that you lift up the Pastors wife right now and make her whole again.Let her look to you and not to her problem,for she is already healed in the mighty name of Jesus. We stand in agreement with you on this, because we know that you are the ultimate healer. If God is for us who can be against us.I rebuke anything that isn't the will of our Heavenly Father. Enjoy your Healing. Know that God is good!!! Amen

Thank you all so much for your prayers. Joy did not attend Bible study last night, but several people stopped over to see her. She is doing great! The biggest thing right now is that her mind is still recovering. I guess this is fairly normal for people with strokes. Please keep praying for a full recovery. Such a special lady. Thank you so much for all of your prayers. They mean so much to us!!

The word of God say, If 2 or 3 will touch and agree on anything in his name, It Shall Be Done!! so we can take God at his word and it will not return unto us void. Jesus was wounded for her transgressions, bruised for her iniquities, the chastisement of his peace is upon her and by his stripes we claim her divine healing, We command her body to line up with the word of God and be healed from the crown of her head to sole of her feet, I Jesus Mighty Name. Amen

Thank you so much for your prayers. Joy came home from the hospital today. She is still recovering, but she is glad to be home. I haven't talked to her or seen her yet, but I have heard that she is planning on attending our womens Bible study tonight. It is usually held at her home, but tonight it will be at her neighbors house that live across the street. That way she can leave if she needs to rest. Please continue praying for her full recovery and no repeats! We serve an awesome God!!

Thank you ladies. The last update I received said that it was actually a large stroke, but she only had mild symptoms. She was very lucky, and is improving. Her speech is clearing up and she is getting strength and movement back. She is still in the hospital and will remain there until the doctors are satisfied she is stable. Please keep praying.

Of course I will Pray for your Pastors wife!
Father God you know the beginning from the end. I pray that you hand select the Drs. and Nurses that will be taking care of Joy. Give them the knowledge thy need to help this lady. Be with her husband and give him Peace, Help her sons to feel your presences in her hospital room. Heal her in such a way that it it is very clear to every one that Joy's Healing came straight from you. Straighten the members of her church and grant them peace.I ask these things in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
