January 2, 2018 at 11:02 amThank you SO much for your prayers for Kory, his brother Adam and our family. We do desperately needed your prayers which got us through 2017. Happy New Year to each of you and we continue to pray the Lord’s wholeness and shalom over each of you and your families every day. We spoke to Kory’s counselors this morning and they are embarking on a program this month to address what they have pinpointed as the largest behavior attribute that led to his substance abuse. They have noted that Kory is dealing with fear, and hasn’t yet fully figured out how to invite the Lord into it and surrender it to Him. It is currently at a point where they are now “turning up the heat” on him and imposing adverse consequences when he lets fear paralyze him which has the effect of driving him into passivity and from taking daily action on goals and objectives. He has five goals that they are tracking daily progress on, which include buying his first car, developing a financial plan, making amends to those he’s hurt (his parents) applying to colleges. So if there is an area to pray for, a spirit of fear appears to be a key part of his personality that has led to addiction. I’m not sure how to pray into it, but will continue to do so and invite others to join.
Our son Adam passed two very difficult high level science courses and has just two more to complete is core study. (Praise!) He has been quite isolated this past semester, living at home and doesn’t have too many freinds. Please pray that this next semester the Lord brings new friends into his life who know the Lord.
Blessings,

Please use this time with Kory for his good, help him see and know your light and power. Lord let him understand more about your presence and that nothing stands against it. Help him know in you he is loved and fear has no place when we stand close to you. Lord help him see how your love covers and protects him. Lord lead his path. Lord please continue to bless Adam and help him see your hand at work. AmenelnissieduconsultPrayers: 88Requests: 41

January 25, 2018 at 9:02 amUpdate: Kory was just home with two friends from treatment. He has made good progress and is preparing his personal goals to move out of the sober home and into an apartment, while remaining in his support community. He is connecting with God daily and just purchased a car so he can broaden his boundaries for work and has set a goal to go back to college.
He celebrated his 20th birthday with us and made amends to each of us in the family for the pain caused. His brother Adam is still lonely and working his way through his final college courses. Kory was and is his best friend, he misses him and is quite lonely and isolated. Please pray for Adam for a soft heart, that the Lord wakes him us, fills him with His love and that Adam hears Jesus’ voice and opens his heart to let Jesus heal his brokeness. That the Lord would bring new people into Adam’s life who know and fear Him.
Please pray for Kory against the spirit of fear and anxiety that caused the addiction and lead to procrastination that locks up Kory from moving forward on his dreams. That Kory finds a better job, can get a new apartment with a solid roommate and that the Lord continues to speak to him, guide him and heal him.
Thank you so much for your continued prayers. You have helped bring victory to the lives of these young men and our family. I pray for you and your families daily.
Love you all, Gregg

January 25, 2018 at 1:38 pmHi Gregg
Thank you for the update.Dear Lord Jesus,
Please bring Kory safely into the community, please help him seek you in all things, let his heart and mind be close to you, understanding the real need there is for you to be in step and in line with him. Lord please as he continues his path help him find strength in you, help him overcome any temptation and help him always see a way out, please protect so that no temptation overtakes him, please cast out fear and bring in your love completely to his life. Lord please help his brother Adam at this time, help him have special time with you and Lord I pray he would see others whom love you that he wants to connect with. AmenSheilaTPrayers: 2920Requests: 24

February 19, 2018 at 12:58 pmThank you all for your prayers for Kory and his brother Adam and our family. I continue to pray for each of you and your loved ones every day, that the Lord would pour out his wholeness and shalom on you. Kory is preparing his plan to leave the house, and to venture out into his first apartment. He is also making moves to go back to college. He had a set back this week, but what Satan intends for evil, God intends for good. A young man came into Kory’s store on Saturday and stole his expensive cell phone. It has all Kory’s work, financial and contact related info on it. Kory was heartbroken and angry. I was able to share with him God’s role and our role when injustice happens to us and we are sinned against. I gave him confidence that the Lord knows this other young man, and will deal with him. Kory’s job is to surrender that individual to the Lord and trust the Lord that He is in the best position to judge and deal with him. It really helped Kory process his emotions. Pray that Kory begins living daily in God’s word, and that he make a successful and well thought out plan to step into independent living with a good quality roommate.
Please pray for his brother Adam who is lonely and struggling with his direction. He only has a few college courses left to graduate, but they are really hard courses and he had to drop on only course he was taking this semster. He is not giving up, but has been spending the semester at home mostly in his room, with no interest is getting out of the house to work or do something to keep in shape. We had the discussion with him yesterday and it was a bit rough, but we set some goals and got our point across. Please pray that Adam gets courage and motivation to take action to broaden his boundaries and dream again about his future.
Blessings,

February 19, 2018 at 2:51 pmDear Lord Jesus,
Please help Kory see the snares of the evil one (2 Timothy 2:26). Lord help him understand that even if he falls, in you he will rise, Lord help him know to give his anger over to you and in doing so receive your peace, help him see your goodness, help him watch how you are faithful and bless him with good things. Lord help him embrace you and see your closeness, help him walk at your side and receive your wisdom. Amen
Dear Lord Jesus,
Please bless Adam, please help him complete his course and see it to the end. Lord help him have strength and resilience to keep going and to be encouraged by the end of the course. AmengdaviPrayers: 114Requests: 26
March 4, 2018 at 2:41 pmThank you so much for your prayers. I continue to pray for each of you every day. Kory is presenting his plan to exit treatment and start living independently. He has been sober for nearly 9 months. Praise Jesus. He did indicate this weekend that his use has been rooted in the anxiety of thinking that his life has been a failure. This at only 20 years old, it is troublesome and it is absolutely a lie from the enemy. Please pray that Jesus refresh and restore Kory. Please pray to bind, destroy and banish this soul tie and false agreement, that Kory can be free and live the beautiful life the Lord created him for. Also that the Lord destroy this same soul tie coming against his brother Adam and that he be awakened following his visit with Kory this weekend. That Jesus wake him up too and that he decide to continue to push through college and into the future the Lord planned for him.
Thank you so much. His recovery is owed to Jesus and to each of you who pray with us faithfully in collaboration with God.

March 5, 2018 at 12:11 pmAmen Brother Gregg. It is such a lie form the enemy because he knows how effective Kory will be for God.
Dear Lord Jesus,
Please bind this wicked spirit and cast it away from Kory. Lord let him get his confidence from you, let him be humble but secure in you. Lord help him see how all things are yours to give and as we come close you provide. Lord if he boasts in anything let it be you for what you do for him. Lord build him up in you, help him seek you first in all things. Lord open his eyes to what comes from the enemy and break the chains he has completely his year. Let this year be a year when he is freed into your arms of love. AmengdaviPrayers: 114Requests: 26
April 17, 2018 at 5:17 pmPlease praise Jesus for a real blessing. This is why community prayer is so important. Kory is getting ready to graduate from his sober home and move into an apartment. He is graduating with 4 other young guys in a support cohort who are committed to recovery. He just called and is now registered for accelerated college courses this summer and…. he just told me that he and a few other friends have been attending an Alpha course, hosted by a Christian businessman and restaurant owner who clears his place every Tuesday. His house manager invited them and they love it. God is faithful. Please pray for Kory’s older brother Adam that Jesus wakes him up by the power of the Holy Spirit. Thank you so much for your continued prayers and I hold each of you who have been praying for Kory, Adam and our familiy in my prayers every single day.
Gregg

June 16, 2018 at 5:34 pmI hope you and your families are well. I wanted to update you on Kory. He has graduated from his recovery program and now is living on his own in Dallas. Prayers have been answered as he has been sober for over a year! Praise Jesus for hearing our cry for mercy. He has matured as a young man, just finished his first Alpha course and loved it. He is taking his first semester at college and is happy to be back in school. He has a nice apartment with a roommate who also graduated with him. He has a job that he loves. He is now having to choose between two bible studies that he plans to continue. He is also searching for two men who he can sponsor in the AA program. Some Dallas businessmen took notice of Kory and have invited him to their bible study, but he is enjoying the one he is in now with his friends. What a change since I first reached out for help to come alongside us during that time of crisis. Please pray for his continued recovery, that he does well in school, continues to be surrounded by good people who know the Lord and for his safety and protection. Can you also continue to pray for his brother Adam to continue to work hard in his last year of college, that he meets some new friends who know the Lord and get some guidance for his life.
Thank you so much and I continue to hold each of you in my prayers daily.
Gregg

June 21, 2018 at 5:08 amThank you, Lord, for the testimony of Your power and great mercy in the life of Kory and this family! A close member of my family is drowning in an addiction to pain meds. She is about to lose her marriage and two little boys and a great career over this. She is a Believer, but is now a shadow of the person she once was. I have been quite discouraged over all that is happening, especially knowing very little about chemical addiction. These substances can have such a powerful hold over a person, and I couldn’t help but wonder where God is in all of this! If she is Your child, Lord, then why aren’t You intervening?!? But, then I came across Kory’s story here on the prayer wall, and I am so grateful to read of the journey you and your family have taken over this past year, Greg. As I read of all the ways the Lord and His people have stepped in and invested in Kory and your family, I have hope that what God is doing in your lives He can do in mine! Thank you so much for posting both the struggles and the victories. I know the past year must have seemed very long and the future uncertain, but here you are with a testimony of praise on your lips for what God has done and is continuing to do! I pray He doesn’t stop and this is only the beginning of the great things He has planned for Kory’s life and for each member of your family! In Christ, Heather-Joyful Spirit, in GA

July 28, 2018 at 6:31 amHi everyone. I continue to pray and uplift each of you and your families every day. Thank you so much for your continued prayer and some of these wonderful comments on this thread. Kory came home with three of his friends a few weeks ago to get one of our used cars to drive back. It was great to meet and see his roommate and two others who all went through the same program and have graduated. We were sitting around the kitchen before dinner and Kory’s roommate, who I sense had no previous Christian upbringing, suddenly asked me about my view of the Alpha course. I was surprised because I was not aware of who all attended, and that he had asked in front of all the friends. I shared some of the things I remembered that were my favorite topics, and one of the other young men opened up about his limited exposure to the Bible, and confusion about church as a child. I had a chance to mention that God really wants a personal relationship with us. Please pray that whatever was discussed are in fact seeds that have been planted and will produce a crop. Love you all.
