Praise Reports and Prayer Requests — Updates and Requests:
My prayer as I walked this morning and thought about getting back to the house and the stuff that was waiting for me to do was help me do the important things that affect the Important Thing. It’s a good prayer. And He’s willing. The only way I can fail is if I don’t let Him help me. That’s the only way you can fail today. Today you are more than a conqueror. Romans 8: (NAS) 37 But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.
Oh my! Overwhelmingly conquer!! Take a look at what overwhelmingly means according to free dictionary dot com: Overpowering in effect or strength. Everything in my path today that is intended to distract me from the important things affecting the Important Thing I CAN over power it — So can you. Lets go for it!

LORD GOD, You are excellent! None is better than You. In this moment there looks to be a lot of hours left before resting our heads time comes around. It’s early and I’ve already reneged and repented. So glad Your mercies are not only new each morning but all day long. Thank You.
Thank You for the love and sunshine that You have lavished upon us today. I suspect many of us have concerns on our minds and I pray You will sort these things out within us and give us Wills to hold and live the Mind of Christ. Some of the things we hear stir up emotions that unchecked will not be good for us; particularly for me when I listen to what politicians are saying. The potential is there to zap my courage and replace it with despair. I can’t afford to let that happen, I need You to protect me and train me to surrender to Your Lordship especially with all the stuff that tends to arouse anger in me. We come too with our list of names and ask that You meet every need; and we come asking again for our IDOK Troops for their safety and protection. And, ABBA, thank You for every IDOK and every Reader; grow this ministry as You will. Bless Israel, protect them, keep them safe and introduce them to the peace You desire for them; please forgive and have mercy on America – Holy Spirit please help us pray down revival and repentance in Jesus Name. Amen and amen.

Tired
I count it not a coincidence and neither in this moment do I know what will come to be written on this ‘page’. I do know I am tired and when I am tired, I often don’t feel real spiritual. Anybody know what I mean?
I was reading in the book of Daniel a few days ago, chapter 9 and at verse 21 I wrote in the margin that Daniel prayed even when he was very tired. And tonight when I opened my Bible for inspiration, it opened to that very page, first thing; but I kept turning pages. I then picked up Marion Stroud’s book Dear God, It’s Me and It’s Urgent. And what was she saying on the page that opened? It’s almost time for bed, Lord, and what have I to offer you out of this ordinary day? Well, I can tell you she had my attention. And when I got to the last line of her prayer ABBA had my attention too. So, Lord, here is my day of small things—an evening sacrifice offered . . . evening sacrifice … Daniel. Even when he was very tired. And so I figured Daniel must be the place for us – tiredness and all.
21while I was still speaking in prayer, then the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision previously, came to me in my extreme weariness about the time of the evening offering.
In our extreme weariness, in our passed tired states, He comes to us and when He does somehow we are not as tired. Anybody know what I mean?
— an evening sacrifice offered with open hands and a loving heart. Amen and amen. Make it so LORD, make it so.
22 He gave me instruction and talked with me and said, “O Daniel, I have now come forth to give you insight with understanding.
This is what we want – in tiredness and in all we need, He is ready to give us insight with understanding. We just need to come with our evening offering – our evening sacrifice of praise and He will meet with us. He will smile upon us. He will forgive and give us insight and understanding and He will give us sweet peace and rest at evening – and morning too for that matter. Just come, tired as we are. Isn’t that good news? Whatever tiredness you are experiencing, take yourself and your tiredness to Him and He will renew you, and give you insight with understanding. Not a bad deal, huh?
To review the list of names for prayer, please clickhere. Well, ABBA, I don’t feel as tired as when we began and thank You for the insight and the understanding that You keep giving. I pray for open hands and loving hearts for each of us. I pray for evening offerings. I pray not one of us will lay our heads to sleep without at least saying I love You and thank You. I pray not one of us will put feet to the floor in the morning without first saying I love you and thank You for the night that is passed and the day that is coming.
Thank You for Ryder’s continued improvement. Thank You for every good report that has been received. Thank You for comfort and strength with every report that was not as hoped. Thank You that when we are weary You are our strength. Thank You that You are our peace and our place of safety and refuge in every storm, every trial for every name on our list. Again, I pray for our IDOK Troops for their safety and protection and safe and sound returns home. We remember Israel and pray for peace. We remember the situation with the volcanic activity and we trust You – praying that people stressed and waiting will seize this opportunity to hear You and be still and know You are God. We continue to remember America and pray for repentance and revival; and for Houses of Prayer to pray without ceasing. Amen and amen in Jesus Name.
We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
