Life isn't just about us. It's about other people too. This is a room for you to pray for other people and their situations, our government and leaders, anything that's not ourselves. Stand in the gap and shake heaven. Shoulder other people's burdens and care. Shout God's grace, goodness and provision for them. Pray God's heart.
My sons name is Andrew he is 17 yrs old. he recently told me he has been struggling with homsexual feelings. he feels that God has not been there for him or has helped him with this. He was on th youth worship team at our previous church. we have moved and he does not want to be apart of the youth ministry. please help me pray for deliverance and a renewed hope in him.
thank you
Blessings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ

My son &homosexuality
I am praying for your son Andrew .I do hope things have worked out miraculously since your August posting. I just read it yesterday .
May the Lord bless, guide, comfort and sustain both you ,Andrew and rest of your family .
An excellent 3 part interview is transcripted and recorded in archives of cross rhythms by jon bellamy .This was a very insightful interview with a former gay activist :Michael from USA.He has turned from homosexuality and sin to Christ .We are all sinners saved by grace
Your precious son may be helped by this . I shall not forget to pray fervently before the Throne of Grace for this very pressing family situation. Blessings from Linda.

my son and homosexuality
Dear Abigail
My name is Linda,a mother of 3 and my interest in specific prayer intersession for gay males, arises from fact my profession as a teacher of nurses brought me in contact with a number of gay males. I pray once weekly for their salvation and to add your precious confused son before the Throne of Grace will be easy .
I promise to intercede for his spiritual ,emotional and physical needs as an obvious disheartened Christian . It is so easy to get fed up with other Christians as my 28 year son tries to work in youth ministry and he sees such pomposity and also insulting behaviour from so CaLLED FELLOW CHRISTIAN BELIEVERS .My sons are 29 and 28. May Andrew see the light and find it easy to turn his back on these very real urges .He may never return to youth ministry but other avenues in his Christian walk shall open up .
Abigail may I refer you to the transcript of a 3 part interview on Cross Rhythms in the `life articles` section by Jon Bellamy .Here , he interviews Michael Glatze, a former gay actvist from US .He is now gloriously converted to Christ.This would be amazing for your son and great encouragement .
I feel blessed to have responded to this prayer petition .Indeed I believe (as you shall) it was divine inspired as I had never heard of Cross Rhythms until i accidentally sourced it on the web about 20 minutes ago today!!. May the Lord bless, enrich &comfort you as you attempt to help your son and I know your heart must be breaking and aching for him ,soo much .With Much Christian love

Living through a global pandemic is the sort of thing you expect to study in school, not live through yourself. The lockdown which has rippled across the globe has changed the way all of us live our lives...
