Recently over at the Prayer Request forum, I posted a request. I confess to being disappointed when the responses to my request were 1 person saying they would pray and the rest of the responses being mere advice.
So I took a look back through the prayer request and thinking about them in group settings, I realized Christian have these stardard requests:
My request didn't fall into one of the above standard requests.
Question: do Christians not know how to prayer or respond when the issue isn't in the standard list?
Clarification: this not a thread questioning the validity of any prayer request...this thread is a discussion of responding to prayer requests. Thanks.
So I took a look back through the prayer request and thinking about them in group settings, I realized Christian have these stardard requests:
- Salvation for others
- Illness in self or others
- Job Issues
- Financial Issues
- Relationship issues - mostly in the family
My request didn't fall into one of the above standard requests.
