URGENT PRAYER REQUEST

If there's anyone on right now...could you please pray for my neighbor Al. He is planning on taking his life tonight, the police have informed me. Also for his wife and children. With the exception of their oldest son, who prayed and asked Jesus into his heart a few years ago, they are not Christians. In fact, they recently decided to become atheists, and have taught their younger children to be as well. They had been receptive to my mom's witnessing a few years ago, and were interested in becoming Christians, until some bad things happened to them, and they rejected God, and turned against my family as well. Anyways, your prayers would be greatly appreciated!

Update.......
Things are ok now. It actually wasn't Al, it was the man who lives next to Al. His name is Joe, and his niece told me that he had been taking a lot of medications, and decided he didn't want to take them anymore. Well, he went nuts and decided he wanted to kill himself. The police have him and are going to take him to the hospital for 72 hour observation. So if you could pray for Joe, that everything s ends up well with him. Thanks!

Thanks for the update.
Lord Jesus,
I lift up Joe to you and ask that you would place your hand upon this man. I pray that you would speak to his mind and his heart and taht you would calm him and show him that you are real. May he physically feel your peace and may he come to know the joy of your salvation and the joy of your presence. Protect him from the fiery darts of the enemy who lies to him to want to take his life. I pray that Joe will surrender his life to you as he is in the hospital and find peace and hope in You.
Send someone to him that will share Your hope with him......
Thank you Lord that you are aware of this man's plight and that you will come to him and help him.
Lord, I also pray for Al and his family that they may no longer reject you and blame you for things that has happened in their lives, but that instead they may come to know you, remember those seeds that were planted within them and make those seeds grow, Lord. I pray that they may realize that You are real and that You care for them.
I pray for Susannah and her family that they once again may have an "in" with this family and that they may no longer be rejected by Al and his family....help them to always know what to say to people who reject you and thank you that you open doors for them and that you give them wisdom and endurance and that by your strength and grace they continue to be faithful to you and the work that you have called them to do.
AMEN

That is hard. It's a shame they didn't understand that Satan was attacking them with that bad stuff and turned away from God instead of towards Him. It's sad someone would think things are so bad they have to take their life. I'm glad everything is okay now.
Lord

I rejoice today in You because I know You have taken care of Joe since before he was born. Thank You Lord `cause is not in Your plans that he dies like this. Thank You God `cause You took care of him yesterday and made the death ran away from him.
In Jesus name I declare he is gonna see you this week, that a huge revival like a fire will come to his heart, I declare that the Holy Spirit will reveal to him and will open the eyes of his heart so he can see You and can see the plans You have for him.
In Jesus name I declare this, AMEN.
