Email Prayer Mentoring
by Doris Beck and Karen Schenk
Every day we receive emails from people who are struggling with issues and pain in their lives. It is often difficult to know what to say. There are times when all we can do is pray.
Including the text of a prayer in the email response has proven to be a very effective way of ministering to hurting people. We have discovered that a personal prayer can be tremendously encouraging – even for those who are not going through a hard time. You may want to consider praying for your friends in this way to let them know that you are thinking of them.
Praying in an email is a very effective way of presenting needs to the Lord while encouraging the person who has given the prayer request. Initially, this method of praying can seem a little awkward; however, with practice, you will soon find it to be effective and comfortable.
Here are a few tips to help you get started:
1. Be Specific. When you type out the prayer, please pray specifically for the request that has been given. Please pray for God’s will in the related circumstance. We may not know the issues that are surrounding this request.
2. Pray Scripture. In the body of your prayer or at the end of it, share a scripture reference. You may find the need you are praying for is such that you don’t have any answers. In that case, you could pray a scripture reference. Sample: “Lord, you know the pain that (name) is struggling with as she is going through her divorce. I pray that your peace would guard her heart and mind during this difficult time (Philippians 4:7) In Jesus Name, Amen”
3. Don’t feel you need to give them an answer. When you are praying for individuals, please don’t feel you need to offer them counsel or give them an answer. If they decide to write back you can refer them to further help. Your main responsibility is to pray for them and share the next step in their relationship with God.
4. Make the email personal. Use a personal salutation (Dear name) Indicate why you are responding (ie. “Your email has been forwarded to me as I am serving as a mentor for (name of site). I would like to pray for you. Begin to type the prayer. “Dear Lord, I thank you for ____.”
5. Encourage them to respond back to you by suggesting: “I would love to share with you more about my personal spiritual journey – feel free to write back." Sending in an email prayer request may be a new experience for the person who has sent the request. They may not know that they are free to write to you and discuss spiritual issues unless you tell them. Always give them the option of corresponding further with you. Many of the people writing in may not know Jesus Christ or they may be living defeated spiritual lives. Don’t miss the opportunity to share Christ with them.
6. Don’t be disheartened if they don’t email back. People using the Internet are often looking for quick answers. You may never know the impact of the email you sent. Continue to pray for that person – and if the Lord lays it on your heart – try writing again at a later date. (ie. “You came to my mind today and I prayed for you. I pray that God is giving you strength in the situation you were going through”). Often an email such as that will trigger a response – but even if it doesn’t, you may still have been a blessing.
7. Share the hope of Christ by including links to the gospel and Holy Spirit presentation. Give the individual the “next step” for their spiritual life. Let them know that they can know Christ or have a deeper relationship with Him. Sample: “I have discovered that Christ gives me incredible strength and guidance to deal with difficult situations in my life. If you would like to know more about having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, please check out Journey of Joy. If you already have a relationship with Christ, but feel that you are living a defeated life, please check out Spirit Filled Life "
Sample prayer request: Email: (email address) Name: Ann Prayer_Request: I am recently divorced, but my ex keeps taking to the supreme court just so he won’t have to pay me anything and at the same time my best friend has betrayed me. I have so much bitterness and hate in my heart that I can’t seem to release. I fear loosing my soul. Please pray for me to be able to forgive, live it and to help me handle what ever the court says. I am running out of money to fight or stand up for my self. Please pray for me Submit: Send form Subject: CWT Chat Prayer Request
Sample Response: Dear Ann , Thank you so much for sending your prayer request to our site, Christian Women Today. Your email has been forwarded to me as I am serving as a mentor for this site. I would like to pray for you. “Dear Lord, I thank you for Ann and her willingness to ask You to help her forgive in this situation. Lord, You have promised in Your Word that You will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7) and I pray that right now you would do just that for Ann. I pray that You would help her to forgive and not let any root of bitterness to take hold of her life in this very difficult situation(Hebrews 12:15). Today may she forgive as she herself has been forgiven by Your amazing love. Strengthen her this day, and as she walks with You, may You continue to give her strength and Your peace. Thank You that You have promised that Your grace is always sufficient for every situation that we find ourselves in(2 Corinthians 12:9) I pray these things in the precious name of Jesus, amen.” Ann, I don’t what I would do in the difficult times of my life if I didn’t know that God has promised me His grace and that His Holy Spirit would give me strength and be my comforter in these times. Today, allow Him to fill your life, empower and control, and help you to forgive. If you would like to know more about how to do this, I would love to e-mail further with you.

Lord, let Ryan find this on the internet and may it lead us closer together.In Jesus holy most wonderful name, I pray and send my prayer request to this ministry and all over the internet. Amen.Father, I miss my husband
I don’t know if it is your will for us to be together.
I don’t even know why the mind,emotions and soul miss someone.
I wonder if it is true that we can feel
each others emotions and pains and know
what each other are doing through
silent communications of our souls.
I somehow feel I am close to him
although he tells me he doesn’t want anything to do with me,
and he is in love with another woman.
Lord, if it is your will,
I will love him more than I ever have before,
I will assist him in learning about you,
I will pray this time,
if you give me him back,
I will pray instead of being mentally and verbally and physically abusive to him.
Father, I know you can heal and
you can forgive
and you can start things
and you can stop them
Father, am I out of your will to ask for my husband Ryan to come back to me soon.
Am I foolish,
because each day I pray that he come home now and
he never comes,
Father,
I almost feel like,
this feeling that I am feeling,
is meant to be wishing that you would come now.
I am unsure Father,
On this situation,
I am a baby Christian.
I pray that I will have Holy Spirit filled encouragers and builders to come in my life and help me grow and be smarter and understand the bible,
Father, I pray
that I am ready to recieve your word.
Lord, I will do what you want me to,
I do ask for my husband back but
I will let him go, if you help me,
I feel like he could walk in the door at any minute,
and Lord I know that you are so good and work in miracleous ways.
I have thought these feelings about others,
but I think that may have been adultery,
because I have been married but seperated and been with other guys,
so I am going to try to believe in these feelings with my husband,
With the way that you work,
this may be true,
unless the devil is playing tricks on me,
sometimes I think that my husbands soul is speaking to me rather he knows it or not,
Lord, I believe that he wants me back secretly,
Father, these emotions I don’t know how to untangle or make sense of,
I want to erase this poem,
but something tells me not to,
tells me that it makes sense.
Holy Father, you mean alot to me,
help me to understand you and
all of your ways.
Father my hopes of my husband comming back,
make me sad,
I don’t know how to feel when I have this emotion.
Father, I have been told that I have mental illness,
father everything else that I have asked you is comming true,
could that mean that my husband and I will be back together soon?
Sometimes I feel like I am from another world
and I wonder why can’t I have someone to share those feelings with.
My soul aches father and I don’t know why.
Something tells me to erase this and quit writing it
and something tells me that It is okay
and this is a very beautiful poem.Please pray for me. It is urgent. I need God to soften my husbands heart
to love me again.For my husband to find that he loves me more than the other woman he is with. For the Spirit of depression to leave me and all negative Spirits. For negative Spirits to leave my husband and may something that I do or say lead him to God and me.
Pray for Ryan to be good for me and he will not marry the other woman and will come back to me. I pray that he will take these next few days and really weigh out the odds for the rest of his life and how he is going to spend them.For him to think about the trusting times that we had, for him to realize the different reasons why I cheated on him and abused him, in a forgiving, Godly manner. For God to convict his Spirit that he is married and when you get married you only get one chance. I pray that God will show Ryan many many reasons why he should consider talking to me once again. I pray that, if he has to wait until that girl he is with leaves or goes to bed to talk to me, that he will even do that. I miss him and I am desperate for any kind of attention that he will give me. I pray that God will tell Ryans Spirit all the things that he needs to hear about me and about God. I pray that God will convict Ryan to come home to me in Missouri and make things brand new,foreget the past.
I pray that the Holy Spirit will pray for all that I have left out anything .for restoration of my marriage,my husbands name is Ryan Allstun.
He is with another woman, although we have been seperated for 4 years,
I miss him so much and would love it if he would come by and see me
some time. I would love to start over with him. I think of him everyday.
I pray that he will not file for divorce.I pray that he will take a
good postive look at our marriage. I pray that he will feel free to

how he felt or how I made him feel. I pray that God will give both
of us the tools right now to work out our marriage. I bind Satan
away from me and my family so that we can be happy again.

even closer to you. Father, thank you for comming into my life.
Holy! Holy are you. Your mighty presence feels so good to me, my
heart longs for you. Father help me to find the words and actions
to make Ryan return to me. Father, I want to have true love with
Ryan Allstun. Lord, let Ryan find this on the internet and may it
lead us closer together.In Jesus holy most wonderful name, I pray
and send my prayer request to this ministry and all over the internet.Megand wrote me today and her words made me want to adopt her, so that she
will not go to DFS. Dad says I can’t handle her.I don’t have no money for
her. Kim T. says that I need to learn to take care of myself and that Megan
would be too much for me.
Where is the encouragement? Deffinately not here. I know myself well enough
that I will learn to accept what they say are true just so that I don’t
have to not be a friend to them.
Lord, I don’t like the advice that these people are giving me. This is my
sister, she needs my help.
I dont like my dad for some reason.
I know it is not good to not like people.
But he mistreats me.
Later on, I will decide that I am the one in the wrong for talking back
to him and such, when he is the one who started the argument. It sounds
patetic me even staying here. Lord, lots of people say lots of different
things. I don’t think I have met one really good christian yet. I would like
to though. I am embarrased because of my thoughts, I dont know why. Probaly
because the way I get treated in my own home and family and even by others.
It seems as if those who are still living in deep sin get their way, because
most of the leaders are crooked. Lord, is it true that I am going to be
a good Christian in this community? I believe so. I believe that you love me.
I am really going to need your help to relate to people, to love people,
to get along with others Lord. I don’t know how you did it, but I will learn
too.Lord, keep me wanting to learn, keep me safe in you. Lord, people on the
outside are so hurtful. I wish my husband was a Christian. that would be so
need to have a good christian friend. Lord, those people at my church are
crooked. I need good guidance and I don’t know what to do? It is so
miserable all the cussing, stripper songs, potty mouths, talk about sex,
dirty jokes,lying,manipulating, emotionally abusing people, mentally
abusing people, physically abusing people and getting away with it. Lord,
it seems strange to me for alcohol to be legal, I know you know what it
has done, at this point in my faith, I cannot understand why you allow it,
or if you allow it. Alcohol ruins lives, kills people, gives people disease,
poisons people, causes people to do crazy things, causes adultery. That
stuff is bad as well as meth, marjuanna. The stuff is so terrible, why
can’t they just put and end to it all? Lord, I don’t know what to do with
my life. I know Megan is going to need me when she gets out of Sierra. I
don’t even know if I can handle her. (hint: 10 minutes ago dad said I
couldn’t handle her, and Kim said I could not). Lord, could it be the
people that I am around telling me that I am too weak to do this, I am
not smart enough to do that and such that is making me feel and think
failure, doom and think of the worse. Lord remove this obstacle, I need
to move on with my life. I dont even like it here at dads when he is at
home, I dont like the alcoholic behaviors, I dont like watching him drink
and drive knowing that it is against the law. I dont like him telling me
what I can and cant do. I dont like anyone telling me what I can and cannot
do. Lord, please help me to further investigate my own thoughts at a later
time, because I have to work on A.A. stuff, because I have to be a member
of this thing. I dont even know if the program is approved by you, if it’s
not please don’t let me go astray by some A.A. program. Lord, where are your
people? I would like to hang out with them and recite verses with them and
talk about you and your love all the time. Lord, thank you for giving
this life to me. Why me? What have I done to deserve it? I feel like one
in a million or somthing like that. Your love is so amazing. Lord, at the
Cprp program people cuss and stuff all the time and talk about cruel things,
it is hard for me to adjust to situations like that. I don’t feel it is
appropriate. I dont want to leave because then I will be stuck at home all
day. People talk negative. this stuff is all going to come back on me. Make
the devil leave me alone forever. I dont like that thing. It is mean to me
and it hurts me. It hurts others too. Lord, make me a servant to you. Keep
me by your side. Make me listen to your commands, make me give you the glory
in everything that I do. Lord, make people stop running all over me and
telling me who I am and who I am not. You are the only one who can tell me
because I am yours and they are not. Why am I changing more than others?
They claim that they are spiritual and cuss and keep a funky mind? I dont
understand these things. You are the one with all the answers? All I do is
get in arguments with people then at the end agree that I am the person that
they said I was, without knowing it I am basically killing myself. Lord, I
need your light, for I cannot see what I am doing to myself, Lord, if I
knew then I would do better things. Father, I need you, Hear my cry. Lord,
send angels and whatever forces that you got to be next to me, in front of
me and behind me, place them everywhere I go. Lord, people are so mean to me
I need you so bad. I dont know how to get closer to you. Lord, it is you
that I need, but somehow I am not reaching you. I cannot understand what
is going on so I make things up without meaning to and decide that must
be what is going on. Lord, this world is cruel and they are rude to me.
I thought as a Christian I would get respect, too bad I was wrong. Lord,
I will always be a Christian because you are with me. Lord, people even
try to tell me that the Spiritual feelings that I am having seem like
something from the drugs. Lord, what am I to do? I question what they say,
I believe in certain people because they have power. Lord, make your men
and women be in positions of power all over the world. Lord, secretly
destroy the enemy. Lord the devil says bad things to me and lies to me
and confuses my head, make me strong, make me very strong so that I can
control my own life and have wonderful thoughts. Lord, make my heart
happy. Make me praise you all day long. Teach me what to do in
uncomfortable position. Teach me how to live. Lord teach me how to seek
your kingdom. Make me a big star in your world. Lord, show me who you
are show me what you are doing in my life. I need this.
Thank You Jesus.Please pray for me, I am worried about my health. My stomach burns, I get
a poky feeling in my eyes, my knees hurt everyday, my right side hurts
exspecially when I eat
certain foods, my teeth are bad, my right ear and my chest area of my body
get wierd, yet familiar sensations (I think they may be feelings like I
used to have when I used to use meth), I have gained about 80 lbs. since
year, my periods are off schedule, I am angry alot, I get a feeling that
feels like my soul aches and is not together ( I think this may be linked
to negative thinking), I am confused alot. for my husband to think of me
in a positive way today and miss me and be atleast one step closer to
comming back to me, I dreamt of him last night.For my mind,body,soul,
emotions to heal from addictions and other negative things,for familys
salvation.for me to have high self esteem.For me to have the serenity
to accept the things that I cannot change,for security in all my life.
To be closer to God and know his well really well.For me to be in high
spirits and have a good outlook and attitude on life.for my teeth to
be healthier, for my fears and worries to go away.For me to have a
terrific day frull of inspiration,love and new ideas, to be able to
love others alot and love myself alot.I mis my husband so much,pray
he will come back to me soon.I am worried about my health. My stomach burns, I get a poky feeling in my
eyes, my knees hurt everyday, my right side hurts exspecially when I eat
certain foods, my teeth are bad, my right ear and my chest area of my body
get wierd, yet familiar sensations (I think they may be feelings like I
used to have when I used to use meth), I have gained about 80 lbs. since
year, my periods are off schedule, I am angry alot, I get a feeling that
feels like my soul aches and is not together ( I think this may be linked
to negative thinking), I am confused alot.my name is Kimberly and I feel that I need prayers from Christian believers
and leaders. I am 26 years old, am on SSI and am currently living with
my father, James. We argue most every night. He lashes out at me alot, the
drinking, I know plays a big part in it. I am lost and confused and I
don’t even know how to talk to him. I am almost fed up. I try to get him
to go to A.A. and church but he refuses. He really aggravates me. I don’t
even look forward to him comming home after work, because I know that
he will pick arguments. I am trying to keep my mouth shut and not talk
back to him. I am fed up with him. Pray that he will quit drinking. I am
also aggravated that he is good friends with our neighbors, who drink,
do drugs and don’t go to church, because they have a huge impact on him.
Pray for that situation as well.
I am currently seperated from my husband. I miss him. I want to be together
with him again. I want to tell him that I am sorry. I want him to forgive
me. He has our children in N.Y. and has them calling another woman
mommy. The few times that we have talked on the phone, he seems very angry
with me and unforgiving. He calls me names like a no good mother and says
that I never loved the kids and even has his fiance get on the phone and
talk to me. I believe in God and I believe in miracles. I just need a few
more prayer partners and prayer believers in restored marriages and
miracles.
Also, pray for me and all my loved ones and all that is on my heart.my name is Kimberly and I am in need of your care and prayers.
My husband left me 4 years ago and I miss him so. He took our three
children with him to New York, 2 years ago, I miss them too. I don’t
get to talk to my children. I send them letters, that I don’t even
know if they get. I have so much on my mind. A year ago, my husband
Ryan called me up and told me he was going for full custody. My mind
has not thought the same since. I spend most of my time thinking
of ways that I can get custody of my children, how the judge will
judge me, what I will look like the in the courtroom, if I will be
terribly hurt by seeing my husband with another woman. I would like
to have him back and some ministries believe in that. I try to pray
everyday about it and give it over to the Lord but I don’t know if
I am doing that right. I wish I knew Gods will for my marriage.
I wish, my husband, Ryan would call me or show up at the door
asking me if I want to start all over again too. Besides those
problems, I have neighbors, family and loved ones who are not
saved, who laugh at me for believeing, who use meth and other
street drugs. Please Stand with me in my marriage (for my
husband to turn his life over to the Lord and come back home soon).
Please also stand with me in my beliefs for my loved ones and
everyone that I know to give their lives over to the care of
God and change their ways forevermore. I pray that they all find
delieverances from drugs. Thank You for reading this, and standing
with me. Also, please pray, that all the letters that I am sending
to my children, will not affect the divorce and child custody
issues that I am facing in any negative way, that they will only
help me to get custody (if I have to fight for custody)(If my
husband doesn’t return home) (I don’t wa.nt to loose) (Pray that
Ryan forgives me and I forgive him soon). Also, pray for my Spirit to be
healed, it has been hurting me and I don’t know why.
Keep asking, and it will be given to you; keep seeking, and you will
find; keep knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For
everyone who keeps asking receives; He who keeps seeking finds;
and to him to who keeps knocking, the door will be opened….”
Matthew 7:7-10
I dremt that Ryan was carrying me on his back and told me that the
truth was that he really cared about me, then he walked over to
a mirror so that I could see his face and he had tears in his eyes.
I also dreamt that he was cheating on his girlfriend with her
good friend, that made me really uncomfortable to see him kiss
another girl in front of me, but deep down, by him telling me
that he really had feelings for me, it didn’t bother me so much.
This morning I am thinking of the song “lips of an angel”, that
part where it says “and yes, I dreamt of you too”, I wonder if
he dreamt of me last night, that would be so cool if God would
use our dreams and bring us closer together!. 7:16 a.m.
Maybe this is Gods way of telling me that everything is okay,
don’t worry, there are many different ways he can bring Ryan
back to me, even if he is mad at me. (Even dreams), in which Ryan
can’t control. Maybe God will flood Ryan with dreams of me, and
that will lead Ryan to believe that it would be a good idea to
come back to me.
Amen.

At 75, I have been a Christian since I was 12. At 17, I found assurance in my life, and never have wavered, thanks be to God.
I would like very much to work with you in e mentoring.
My home church is Calvary Baptist Church, Ellensburg, WA, but I live in Cle Elum, WA thirty miles away. Perhaps you can put me in touch with the Cleveland’s so that I can pray for them.
Thank you very much.
June Estelle Cash
Dear Lord, please help this dear lady to find peace. Give her an extra sense of your dear Presence in her life. In the Name of Jesus, I ask that you will show her more of yourself and help her to trust you by faith that you will sustain and keep her. Help her to focus on YOU instead of on the evil that is all around us.
Show her from your Word the promise you have made to your children that you will be with them and help them. Reassure her with this. In Matthew 28.18 – 20 you told the disciples to go into all the world, and that you would be with them always. Give her this assurance. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

We would love to have you become a prayer mentor Monica. You can do this by filling out the online Mentor Application at http://truthmedia.com/team/mentoring/mentorapply and indicate that you want to be a Prayer Mentor.
As a new prayer mentor I have to say it is a wonderful feeling to pray for people. I am used to typing prayer because I do this a lot online with people on nearly a daily basis. But being a mentor reaches so much further then I ever could. It is the burning desire of my heart to pray for others and to reach out to a world full of people that need to know some one cares for them but above all God cares for them and loves them beyond anything we can imagine.
We are thrilled to have you on the Prayer Mentoring Team Mary!! Thank you for being obedient to God’s call on your life.

Please pray for me alot. I have alot of problems with jealousy, stress, anger, possibly bitterness. I have the Holy Spirit. I am saved. I am getting to know the Lord. I read my bible sometimes. My ex won’t let me see the kids. It has been about 6 years. I think about them everyday and I feel hopeless. I feel no lawyer is going to take my case because I have waited so long. I feel that no lawyer or judge will understand me. I wonder if it is Gods will that I see my kids. God promises alot of great things, yet I feel for some reason I am not receiving them and I don’t know what to do. I only feel the Holy Spirit sometimes and I know if I felt it all the time that I would feel better. I read in the bible that the Spirit of God is power, love and sound mind. I want to operate in these things. I have the Holy Spirit, I know I do, because I can feel him in my heart and I believe it is what keeps me going to God for the last years. I feel I have Spiritual confusion. The doctors say I am bi polar, but I really think that I am confused about God. My insides doubt, I believe I cut myself down..and It is hard to see the greatness of Gods love. I have had more good times than bad. I know that God has a better life for me. But I wonder, what is holding me back? Why am I not living in his peace and fufillment? Why am I not exsperienceing his love and wonderfullness. I pray alot, I pray everyday. I want to serve God and live for him, yet I am stuck feeling hopeless, confused, fearful, angry. I wonder, have I given my life to the Lord compltely? I search for all the answers in church, on t.v.. on internet..but I have no idea the answers. I have lived this way for about 6 years now. I used drugs in 2004 when I was high on meth, I received a vision of Jesus dying on the cross, out of nowhere, it was so intense I started crying. A few days later or so I received fire and spiritual feelings in my body. I had not heard of these things, I did not know it was God…I have been in a confusion every since. Now, I know that the Spirit is God…Yet, I am so confused. I wonder, how do I get out of this confusion. Why am I under so much confustion..I feel a big breakthrough comming every day like its gonna be here any second.. I really want to know all the truth about God and know him very well so that I can tell others! I want that really bad. I wonder, why don’t I have it… I pray so much. I pray so hard. I send prayer request to alot of ministries… I feel like I am going to make a difference in this world, yet there is so much holding me back. I know Gods love can change me. I know having a relationship would change me. I wait for him to come to me and cover me in his love so I can see who he is, so I can trust him and know him. But he has not done this yet. I wonder Can’t God do anything? Why hasn’t he done this. Do I not have the faith to receive his blessings? Am I not ready to receieve his love yet? Is he holding out on me so I can learn what I need to learn? Surely he is better than that.. I am having troubles fully believeing the bible. I have troubles trusting people to teach me about God. There is alot more inside me. Please pray alot for me. Please have everyone you know to pray for me. I really need alot of support. I really need alot of support. Please be the prayer warrior that I need. I am very needy of Gods people to pray for me. Please do me a favor and pray for me alot. Please, I really want to live a good life and serve God. People really need it. Please, I need a more loving heart. I need more kindness. I need more of God and every good thing that he has..Quickly. because I am hurting and I see alot of hurting people and I only want to speak his words. Also I just found out 2 days ago, I am 28 yrs old and have psoriasis! Please pray blessing and annointing over me. Pray that I will be treated with respect, honor by human kind so I can quit being upset. Pray that I will see God working in all those that I pray for! I have many many burdens that I feel I am carrying and I pray and desire to be free from them all. This is a call, I am reaching out to all the believers around the world. Pray for me every prayer you know. I am unsure why all the bad things keep happening and such, please keep praying for me! I have way more needs than I have mentioned! It keeps feeling like there is something between me and God. Yet, at the same time I am so close to God, I am getting closer everyday. Seems like everytime he has me feeling good then someone wrecks my mood or I get internal negative thoughts, it really seems like there is a force between God and I. Please pray.
Pray GOD Blesses me so i can Bless oethrs every day of my life In JESUS Name Amen.
