“I pray you give God praise and thanks for His merciful deliverance of my dear daughter from the evil influence of the man to whom she had given her love and promise of marriage.  THE LORD gave her strength and courage to break her engagement, in answer to our earnest prayers.  Oh, implore Him to keep that man out of her path, for he is constantly lying in wait to meet her when she goes out.  He wanted her to read bad books, but told her that they were not wrong.  He constantly laid temptation in alluring forms before her.  To HIM alone be the thanks for this step she has taken.”

A SKEPTIC OVERPOWERED.

“More and more God is pouring out His Spirit, gloriously answering your prayers and ours.  I have been constantly asking your prayers, and though, for a while, the vision tarried, yet it has come.  The young man, from a neighborhood where there was not one Christian, and he himself scarcely less than a skeptic, is now sitting, in his right mind, at Jesus’ feet."

SAVED FROM DEATH.

“My brother, that lay apparently at the point of death, has been restored to comparative health.”

AN INTEMPERATE YOUNG MAN RECLAIMED.

“Rejoice with me, and thank God for his gracious answer to prayer.  The intemperate young man for whom I requested prayer some months ago, has turned away from his cups, and is earnestly striving to overcome his appetite for strong drink.  He is competent to be the means of doing so much good.”

THE CONVERSION OF INTIMATE FRIENDS.

“Some time since, I sent request for prayer for the conversion of friends.  Since then three have united with the church.”

RAISED UP FROM DEATH’S DOOR.

“Our former pastor was raised up from death’s door, in answer to your prayer. The doctor gave him up.  He says the Lord alone saved him, in answer to prayer.  Praise His name.”

THE DESIRE OF THE HEART FULFILLED.

“A few weeks since I sent a request for prayer in my behalf, asking you to pray God very earnestly that He would grant me the desire of my heart, for which I was praying almost unceasingly. On the evening of the same day on which I supposed you would receive my request, the answer came, lifting a great burden from my heart.  I send this in acknowledgment of God’s loving-kindness to me, and to encourage’ every burdened, praying one, to trust Him more.”

A POOR OLD SICK LADY RESTORED.

“The poor, sick old lady for whom I requested your prayers some time since, wishes to return thanks to Almighty God, for restoring her health, and sending friends.  It is wonderful how your and our requests are answered.”
