got this in email from Hollywood Prayer Network:
We hope you had a joyous Easter and that May will be a month full of new growth, in your yard and in your life!
This is the time of year when our country celebrates the National Day of Prayer and I ask that you join us in praying for our nation, your state, city and the entertainment industry on Thursday, May 7th.
Here is the verse that the NDOP Task Force has designated as the focus for prayer this year:
"May your unfailing love rest upon us, O Lord, even as we put our hope in you." Psalm 33:22
Let's pray this month for the people in Hollywood who have not yet met or experienced Jesus.
When you see celebrities in the news or in magazines, remember to lift them up to God and ask Him to reveal Himself to them so that they melt into His arms.
Below are some specific prayer needs, but they are only a representation of all of the needs of precious, creative artists in the entertainment industry who need our prayers to find hope, unconditional love, joy and Divine peace in their lives.
PRAISES:
We thank God that our prays for Lindsay Lohan are being answered. She is receiving counsel and guidance from Stephen Baldwin and is seeking answers in her life, as a result of her recent personal struggles.
Let's continue to pray for her to respond to the Holy Spirit and for Stephen to receive wisdom through his faith in God as they speak.
Continue to pray for Liam Neeson and his three sons, as they mourn the loss of their mother Natasha Richardson. May the Lord continue to tangibly touch their hearts and lives with hope.
REQUESTS:
We need to pray for Farrah Fawcett, the 62-year-old actress who is struggling in her battle with cancer.
"She's a fighter, but we get the sense she knows the end is coming," says one friend of Fawcett's.
"But we're all still praying for a miracle." Let's pray for Farrah to find the comfort, peace, joy and salvation of Jesus in her battle.
The California film industry is dwindling down to almost nothing as runaway production takes film and TV production shoots to Canada and other states across our country.
Film and TV production budgets have declined drastically due to our economic situation and producers are choosing to shoot their projects in right-to-work states and places with built in tax incentives and lower production costs.
It is seriously hurting our state's economy and taking jobs from California production professionals.
Please pray for the Lord to do a miracle in our business as so many local industry pros are without work.
After 28 years of marriage, and being separated since August of 2006, Robyn Gibson filed divorce papers against Mel Gibson this week. They have seven children, but only one under 18 - a 10 year old son. Please let's pray for the Lord to do a miracle in their lives, to protect their children, and to lead them and their friends and family closer to Him.
"The Guiding Light", the long-running daytime soap opera (which originated on radio 72 years ago) has just been cancelled.
Daytime soaps have been taking a bit of a beating these last months, with daytime staffers receiving either pink slips or pay cuts.
There are Christians on all the daytime shows and we pray that they can minister to their peers and associates and bring hope to them that will cut through the fear and anger that comes with the insecurity of their unstable workplace.
As an HPN member said: "So let's pray for all of them, that they will let God in Christ be their ‘Guiding Light' during this time."
Let's pray that the flaming darts of the enemy are prevented from touching the people of God in our industry. The spiritual battle rages here as we wrestle with conflict, struggle, compromise, fear, isolation, and desperation all around us. May our lights shine, may we be a comfort to those who have no hope and may we be full of joy so that we stand out as powerful salt and beautiful light.
VERSE OF THE MONTH: "And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
Philippians 4:7
