Types of Prayer Requests

There are many types of prayer requests that can be shared with others. Some people may ask for prayers for physical healing, while others may request prayers for emotional or mental healing. Some may ask for prayers for financial stability or success in their careers, while others may ask for prayers for their relationships or family situations.

Prayer requests do need to be only a desire for aid either. Request can also be made asking others to join in the joy of a situation. For instance some may request that people join in prayer with them praising God for His providence over a situation, or thanking God for a blessing they felt in their life.

No matter what the request may be, it is important to remember that prayer brings comfort, peace, and hope to those who seek it. It is also important to respect the privacy of those who share their prayer requests and to offer support and encouragement whenever possible.

Below is a list of many types of prayer requests. Though long, it is not exhaustive. We plan on growing this list as time goes on and welcome any feedback that you wish to provide.
