The History: A couple of years ago, I started journaling my prayers and God's responses to them. I told my friends about this, they were really interested. I told my Pastor about it and he said, how about sharing those on line. When I asked God, He said, my words are for you, but not just for you. And, here we are...I hope He speaks to you in these words.

I'm confused...

My prayer:

This entire week was filled with things not turning out like I expected. And, while I am doing my best to roll with the punches, there are some things that have been pretty tough to take. Just about the time I think I might have some little piece of life figured out, everything changes and I realize I don't know anything after all.

I am not sure what, if anything, I am asking for God. Maybe wisdom? I am not sure.

If all of this is your will, then I will do my best to shut up and wait to see how you work it out. If it is not your will, I pray that in your sovereign power, change it to your will.

What God Said Tonight:

I have shown you many things about your future, about the future of the Kingdom. I haven't shown you all that you will go through to see that future. I haven't shown you the struggles and the hard times.

Those things will come and we will deal with them together. Knowing they are coming ahead of time does not make them easier on you. All you need to know, all you need to trust is that I will help you face and conquer every challenge that comes your way. I will prepare you for everything that comes your way.

I am on your side. Let me worry about what is next. You follow me. I am never surprised by what comes. I am always prepared.

If you knew the struggles you will face tomorrow, you may not want to get out of bed. But the hope and promise of tomorrow, that I can show you. That will move you forward. The challenges, I have got those. I will work them out.

Just follow me, day and night and we will walk through the trouble and see the promises.

The Great Provider...

My prayer:

It is so cold and snowy here again tonight God. My prayers are for all of the people who are not blessed with a warm and safe home.

I can't imagine how frightening and miserable it must be for them.

Thank you for all of the wonderful people who are working in the shelters tonight. Thank you for their hearts. And thank you for all of the people who donate to make the shelters possible.

God, I pray and ask that you find a safe and warm place for everyone who needs it tonight. Only you can do that.

What God Said Tonight:

I have a place and a plan for every last on of my children. I can't force it on them though. I can present the opportunity but as always, it is their choice.

I can promise that I will provide an opportunity for every person who needs it. I promise there will be room. I promise to provide for all of your needs out of my riches in glory. I promise to take care of you, my child.

I am the great provider. Don't forget to receive.

Turns it for your good...



My prayer:
Thank you God for bringing me through the last two days and healing me! It was a little frightening but I never lost hope, I never lost sight of you. 

That is what it all comes down to. It rains on us all but those of us who have you in our lives are never alone and never without hope. 

What God Said Tonight:
I used this time to accomplish many things in your life. I did not bring it on you. But I used it. 

I used it to keep you home and safe. I used it to give you rest. I used it to reset some things in you. 

I love you and I will always bring you through. I will also always find ways to use your struggle for your good. I will turn all things for your good. I promise.

Better tomorrow...

My prayer:

Not my best day God. I did not handle the stress of today very well. I did not lean on you like I should. I did not do any of the things I know to do. And, I paid for it.

Thank you God for second chances. Thank you for washing me clean of my sin. Thank you for giving me the hope of a better tomorrow.

What God Said Tonight:

I have yet to see the perfect person who is not in need of the grace and mercy I offer through my sacrifice. That is why I died for you.

I freely take on your sin, your sickness and in return, I give you forgiveness and everlasting life. I give you healing. I give you wisdom. I give you all that you need, each day.

I love you daughter. rest and know that you will do better tomorrow.

Vision...

My prayer:

Awesome God! I am still flying high from watching you do your thing yesterday! Seeing you heal so many people at such a core/deep level, it was so amazing, beautiful, incredible, awe inspiring!

Thank you for letting me be a part of it. Thank you for giving us the courage to step out, in several ways. Thank you God for loving us so much that you heal us from the deep pain that we can barely admit to ourselves.

You are incredible!

What God Said Tonight:

Your voice, your words do not create reality. They shape your perception of reality; but, only I create reality.

Only I create. The devil warps my creations but he cannot create.

I have created you in my own image. I have created this world for you, my children. I have created opportunities for you in this world to see greatness and to live out your destiny.

I give you tonight clear vision to see reality as I have created it. Not distorted by the world or by our enemy. Not even distorted by your words and your experiences. But truth and reality as I have created it. Your new vision will help you and those around you.

I love you, now and forever.

Opportunities...

My prayer:

Wonderful Father. Today was a wonderful Sabbath. Lots of rest and relaxation with you.

I so want to serve your people tomorrow God and I am so worried I won't be able to. This storm is pretty crazy. It makes me wonder and worry that this might be another door you are shutting. And yet, if you are not in it tomorrow, if you don't want me to be there, then there is no point at all in me going. I only want to go if you are there changing lives. If you are not in it, I don't want to be either.

But, I am not sure I can take another closed door. I am ready to go, to move, to do again. I dread the thought of still being in a waiting season.

All that being said, your will be done God. That is all that really matters. And if your will is being done, I will deal with it. Regardless of what your will is.

What God Said Tonight:

At what point did you decide that I was a God of lost opportunities? I am your future. I am your life. I am everything you will ever need.

I will not see you begging for bread, physical or spiritual bread. I am yours and I have given you all of me. My opportunities for you are limitless.

Your preparation is not so much about waiting as it is about strengthening you. I can't take you into all the things I want to until I know you are strong enough and well enough to handle it. I love you too much to see you destroyed by the things of this world. I love you too much to see you tortured by your enemy.

I provide you more opportunities than you are realizing, right now. Around every corner is a new chance  to love, to heal, to be my hands and feet.

I love you daughter and I will never stop opening doors for you.

Dreams...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I have spent a lot of time today thinking about dreams. Dreams that have come true and those that haven't.

It seems like when I was younger, I had no doubt that the things I dreamed of would come to pass. It was not even a consideration that they would not. It was only a matter of time.

Well, now that a fair amount of time has passed, I don't know that I have that same blind faith. But maybe I am more realistic?

The truth is that not every dream will become reality. Otherwise, they would not be dreams. They would be prophecies, reflections of the future. But, part of the excitement of a dream is not knowing. Will it come to pass or not? And, when it does, WOOHOOO! And when it doesn't, if we are lucky, we find a new dream.

Knowing when to stop believing in an old dream and start finding a new dream, now that is the real challenge.

I love you Father. Thank you for always dreaming with me.

What God Said Tonight:

Dreams are gifts. Dreams are what you can point to to get you through the tough times. Dreams are things that you can work toward, giving your life a sense of purpose and direction.

Never give up on your dreams. Sure, change your dreams. Dream new dreams. But, don't ever give up. Old dreams that seem dead have a funny way of resurrecting at the oddest times. I am the God of resurrection.

So, for those old dreams that have not come true, put them on a shelf and dream some new dreams. But don't throw them away. I have time and room for all of your dreams, in time.

I love you sweet daughter and I love your dreams.
