Urgent prayer needed!!
My nephew is 17 yrs old and God only knows what he has lived through, I only know a small percentage as my family kind of keeps to themselves. He has some issues with self esteem and is always searching for acceptance and will do whatever to get it. He is a sweet kid that makes bad choices because of this.
He has been raise in church and has been baptized and filled with the HG. He ran away from home several months ago and but came home after 2-3 days. Well he ran again this past Saturday and we only found out today where he is, but my brother and his wife have decided to not report this nor to go after him. I don't know his location or I would go myself!!
To me this is just another cry for help from my nephew. There is so much more I could say about the situation..... But God knows!!! I need some prayer warriors. Not only for my Nephew, but for his parents, they need all need a wake up call!  Please help me touch God for this family!

Re: Urgent prayer needed!!
I'm so sorry for what your family is going through at this time.
I pray that our Lord and Savior will protect this young man and give him wisdom in the choices he makes. I pray also that our Lord will draw this young man close to Him and that in HIM, he begins to find the acceptance he is seeking. I pray also for his parents to be an example to Him of all that God desires of him. I pray that they use wisdom in dealing with this situation. I pray also that if these parents aren't in a place of right relationship with our Lord and Savior that HE would use this situation to draw them to that place. And I pray for you, that in the midst of this, that you find a place of rest in HIM. I pray that God would use you as a means of help to this young man and his family. And I pray that when all is said and done, there will be a beautiful testimony to come from this of God's provision, mercy, love and grace.
In Jesus Name,
Sinatra

Re: Urgent prayer needed!!
Thank you all so much!! Awesome prayer Sinatra!
My Sister in law decided to go last night and talk to the people he is staying with. He had told them he was 18 and just needed a place for a few days. She went back last night at midnight when my nephew was there and my brother went with her. They brought him home, but he was not happy about this. Thank you all for your prayers....but now will be the true battle and when the prayers are needed the most.
My brother and his wife do have the HG, but their actions tell me it is not very active in their lives!!
Pray for me also, I want to step in as an advocate for my nephew. I want to hear his side and offer him options based on the knowledge I have right now, but I need the whole truth. I pray that God would shed the light on the truth, no matter the consequences for child or parents. This Boy needs help and needs to be reached before its too late! Continue to pray for all!

Jesuswins,
That is indeed a sad situation. I pray that this boy is safe and will realize that God loves him.

Titus2woman on AFF
"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
Quote from Ethel Goss (widow of 1st UPC Gen Supt. Howard Goss) book "The Winds of God"
