From Rick Stambaugh of FGGAM:
While I have a prayer need for myself
today, I have two others of far
more importance and ask if you could offer a
prayer for some very
special people in my life.
One would be my
precious and Godly wife Sandy who has been suffering
from a heavy
fibromyalgia attack since the onset of the heavy winter
weather this last
week and had to leave work early yesterday and we’re
not even attempting to
take her in today. While battling this, she has
also just been diagnosed
with a case of bronchitis as well and I’m
asking for prayer for comfort and
healing and strength to get through
this period.
The other would be
for my precious Pastor Marty Cooper and his
precious Godly wife Pastor
Paulette Cooper from Christ Full
Deliverance Ministries in Rio Rancho NM
where Sandy and I are members.
Pastor Marty has been suffering from a skin
affliction for quite a
period of time and has just recently been diagnosed
with skin cancer
and a rare cancer of the blood. Fortunately, no organs
(other than the
skin) have been effected by the cancer. Pastor Marty will be
undergoing chemo-therapy to battle this issue and I ask for prayer for
healing and comfort and strength for both Pastor Marty and Pastor
Paulette
during this trial.

Pastor Dewey Note: If you frequent FGGAM you know my love for Rick and Sandy. Rick has cancer and Sandy is fighting fibromyalgia. Please join us in praying for complete healing of Sandy and Rick, in Jesus name we pray, Amen!
I have preached at Pastor Marty’s Church. It is where I sent Rick and Sandy when they came back into the Church. I talked to Pastor Marty this morning and He has the faith that he will be healed! In Jesus name, we ask for healing, Amen!
We also pray for Franchesca Stevens of Albuquerque for her job search. We pray HIRING over her interview tomorrow! in Jesus name we pray, Amen!
Thank you for praying! FGGAM is a praying ministry! Amen!
Prayer is the essence of the Spiritual life without which all ministry loses its meaning. It is the fulfillment of the great commandment to love the Lord with all our heart, all our soul and all our mind…..To pray is to unite ourselves with Jesus and lift up the whole world through Him to God in a cry of forgiveness, reconciliation, healing, and mercy….Most of all, prayer is the way to become and remain part of Jesus mission to draw all people to the intimacy of God’s love.” by Henri Nouwen, The Only Necessary Thing: Living a Prayerful Life

Dear Jesus:
The Creator of all the earth, including Rick, Sandy and Pastor Marty… God I ask in humbleness for their sake that you would reach down from Heaven with Your tender, healing touch and love on them a little today. I pray for the strengthening and healing of their bodies and the encouraging of their Spirit knowing that they are loved by me and so many others, most of all You! Please bless their homes and the circumstances of their lives be it physical, emotional or financial that they be provided for and the pressure of the day will be light. In the name of Jesus, Who I have access to through the cross of Calvary alone, I ask. Amen.
