Sue's Prayers

by Susan Philpot (Sister in law)

Dear Danny,

What a blessing to read your emails. The Lord answered prayer and we are most thankful.
I wanted to respond with some of the Scripture and prayers I claimed for you (written in my prayer journal) from the day it happened for about three weeks.
• I Peter 5:10-11 “and the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm, and steadfast. To Him be the power forever and ever. Amen.”
Jesus, you are the God of grace! I pray for Danny as he suffers for a little while to be restored. You will make him strong, firm and steadfast. By your power, You will do it! Thank you Jesus that what you began in Danny will be completed.
• Jeremiah 15:19 “If you repent, I will restore you that you may serve me. If you utter worthy, not worthless words, you will be my spokesmen.”
Thank you Lord. I believe that Danny will be restored to be your spokesman.
• Is. 43:1-3, 18-19 “But now, this is what the LORD says— he who created you, O Jacob, he who formed you, O Israel: "Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. For I am the LORD, your God……Forget the former things…….. do not dwell on the past….See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the desert
and streams in the wasteland."
Thank you Lord that Danny belongs to you. you are with him as he passes through these waters and fire. You are doing a new thing in Danny.

  1. Sue,
    Thanks for the prayers, the scriptures...and for sharing it with us. As I write this, it has been a year. On this day in 2009 I was unconscious but your prayers made a difference. Thank you for being here, in spirit and in person.
    Love and peace,
    Danny
