My closest Aunty, my Mum's best friend, is dying of cancer. She has been affected by Cancer for the last 15years, but its only in the past 2 that she has started to go down hill.

Yesterday Mum got called from the residential home she is living in, she had a urinary infection and wasnt good. Today she has gotten dramatically worse. The Dr came to see her and she now has a very itchy rash developing which the Dr is certain is a type of skin cancer....her body is riddled with it already. She also has a lump developing which the Dr said was a tumour.

The outlook is very grim. He told my Mum to call her daughter and tell her to pack her bags, so now Julie is leaving her family back in Australia to be with her Mum. My Mum has been the strength for my Aunty all through this with Julie living overseas. It will hit her very hard when Aunty Jessie finally does die.

There is a very high likelihood that she will not survive till Christmas day....if she does she wont be coherant. Aunty Jessie is a staunch athiest.....please pray, that somehow, between now and when she goes, that the Lord would get through to her. Please also pray for my Mum, cousin and the rest of our family as we face the possibility that for the first time ever, we wont have our favourite Aunty with us for Christmas. Please also pray for the peace of God to surround my Mum, Dad, sister, brother-n-law, nephew and I....it is so hard right now, I need God's strength!

Thank you and God bless you

Lord God we come in the name of Christ Jesus, Lord unto you give the praise, honor and glory. Lord thou art a healer and a redeemer of all who trust in you. Lord God we know that there is nothing to hard for you. and as we call on you for the salvation of Joy's aunt. Lord we ask that you will not let her leave here without Christ in her life. that she will be saved, sactified, and filled with your precious Holy Ghost. Lord you said that you will that none shall perish and you said that if we ask you anything according to your will it shall be given us. this we ask you in the Name of Christ Jesus, Father God we ask that you send your miniersting angels at her bed side, to speak thy hope, healing, deliverance, joy unspeakable and thy peace that passes all understanding and do the same for all that concern themselves with Joy's aunt . Father that thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven concernig her aunt and her family/ friends. Lord help them to be still as you do a work in her mind, body and soul. Father we ask you to give her a repentent heart and a willing spirit. Lord we pray you close her ears to the lies of the devil and remove all vails that cover her mind that the devil has used to keep her blind, that you open her spiritual eyes, that she may see your truth and her remove all heaviness of her ears that she may her you when you speak to heart, we ask you bring her into your loving arms.
Father we ask that the athority you have giving us to tread upon every serpent and scorpion and all the powers of the enemy in the name of Jesus be willed in this situation as it has been for thousands of years that the spirits who are subject unto us must obey as we now command them to loose her at set her totally free and do her no more harm, the spirit of death we rebuke you in the name of Christ Jesus, we come against you and the Lord rebuke you from having any influence over her, every sickness and desease is to be stayed or gone as you God has willed it for her life. let no weapon form against her prosper and the gates of hell not prvail . Lord we decree her salvation and that she will not leave this world without; she will wecome as always in your loveing arms. we plead the blood of Jesus to cover her from the crown of her head to the souls of her feet, and she is washed as white as snow. Glorify thy self in this souls that belong to you. and we rebuke and remove every fouls spirit that will hinder you work in her Lord. not our will Lord but thy will be done. Lord we pray this in the Holy and awesome name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank you Holy heavenly Father for hearing and answering our prayers for Joy's aunt and family/ friends. Amen and glory to you our God in the highest praise.

Here are some scriptures to read to your aunt and meditate on:
Ps. 23:4 "Yes thought I walk throuth the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil : for thou art with me:

Jn. 5:24 "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemation; but is passed from death unto life."

I Cor. 15:53-54 "For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality...then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory."

Father in the name of Jesus, who is our Physician, Heal and bring unto your Son this lady, and let everyone see how you healed her and they give you the Praise and Worship you deserve. Amen.

Hi there...
just a quick message to firstly say - THANK YOU for all your prayers! I really have appreciated them! :)

My Aunt passed away peacefully on Boxing Day (26/12) which is Christmas Day in the US. Now it is grand central station in our home with people coming and going and the phone ringing off the hook!

It has been a tough couple of days for us all, but we are thankful for all the support we have been receiving. If there is one final prayer request in this it is for the Funeral. I personally am dreading it....I hate showing emotion in front of the masses....and there will be masses because my Aunt was quite famous in our area....so yeah, just extra strength for all my family in this would be awesome. One other thing...my cousin is not Christian at all....please pray that the Lord will help her and show himself to her.

Thank you again, you are such a blessing ;)
Luv and blessings to you all
J0Y
