“It’s really exciting what God is doing here in Nottingham” writes Emily Holden. “This is the first time that our CU has done anything like this and it’s just really exciting!

Here are a few testimonies and prayers from our prayer room:

‘He healed and saved me- God is ACE’

‘Lord I thank you for bringing me out of my depression and back to living for you. Please help me to live for you each day.’

‘As I was praying, I got an image in my mind of a person walking into a court room dressed in black, with the judge ahead of him dressed all in white and just as the person was about to enter someone came up next to him dressed in white and was saying ‘quickly, I want you to wear my clothes during this trial’

‘Unity- may we constantly remember that we are ALL brothers and sisters, ALL co-inheritors with Christ. May we make every effort to include everyone, no matter what their theology or personality, and help us to submit to one another and love one another, using Christ as our example. May this University look at us and see Jesus.’

‘Thank you for your patience and for never giving up on me.’

‘For healing me of chronic fatigue!’

‘Father in heaven, Thank you for saving me from the depths of my sinful heart. I was lost in selfishness and sexual immorality and idolatry and you healed my heart and showed me your immense grace. I pray that you will heal the hearts of many girls out there who do not feel loved and who are lost in sexual sin. Thank you that you made my sin disappear that you cover it with pure white like snow. In your name Jesus, Amen.’

‘Lord, thank you for healing my self-harm addiction. I have felt your healing power work in my heart and soul. Forgive me for the pain I inflicted on your creation. Please give me the courage to keep fighting the depression so that I may never slip back into that dark place. Lord breathe on me. Amen.’

‘Lord, do not let me idolize relationships. You have a reason why I am single and let me remember that you have a plan and please keep me patient, I pray.’

‘Help my family come to terms with their loss father, shield them, protect them and help them move on. I pray they would feel your love and come to know you. Pray also for understanding, that they would understand you in me.’

‘Lord, thank you for saving me from suicide and giving me true life. Amen’

‘God changed me in ways I had no idea were possible and brought my dad to him as well!’

‘The HATE and SELF LOATHING which had taken hold in my HEART have been OVERWHELMED by YOUR ALL SURPASSING LOVE. THANK YOU!’

‘I want to pray perfectly, and I ask you to just MAKE me do it right, but I don’t. I get annoyed and angry with you because you don’t just control what I do so it’s good. I still wish you would change my heart so I KNEW and WANTED to do and say what is right.’

‘It’s a BIG world and I’m a small person. Lord use me for your will.’

‘Lord, you know and love him so much more than I ever could. So this is my plea and my prayer. LORD, SAVE HIM.’
