Identity & truth...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. There are things you have said and know they are true, but sometimes I wonder if they are true for me. Or at least, true for me right now. Is it possible that there is a great truth about how we were created and what we were created to be that is still true, but is not for me right now? Or, is it true for me and I may just missing it. Am I just missing what you have for me because of my own stubbornness and blindness. 

Honestly, the latter seems more probable. But how do I know when I am wrong about something? If I knew I was wrong, I would stop believing it. 

As you might see Lord, my mind is traveling in circles tonight. I pray for your guidance, direction, wisdom, and understanding. Please give me peace and clarity of mind Lord. I am all yours.

What God Said Tonight:

You are what I made you to be. You are exactly as I intended you to be. Your identity is not in question. Your truth is not up for debate. 

I created you as my own child to live out your life in my love and my joy and my peace here on earth. I made you to be a vessel of light. To shine my light through your life. Is it perfect, nothing outside of me ever is. But there are moments where the world gets to see my light reflected in you and that is glorious. 

I did not create you to keep you on a shelf. Your days and your purpose are not over yet. I still have plans for you and for your life and no amount o of doubt will derail those. 

I am your God and our Father. I am your saviour and your King. I will never leave you. I will see you walk in the glory of my Spirit all the days of your life. I will see my light reflected in your eyes and in your life. Just rest my child. Everything is well in hand. 

When I need you to step out, I will say step out and I know your heart and mind will follow me and my direction. We will walk into the future together and we will not be parted. 

When you hear these truths, grab on and don't let go.I love you. Now and forever I love you. 

Purpose...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Lord. Thank you for such a wonderful day. Such peace, such beauty, and such joy. Thank you. I loved our time together on top of the red rocks. There is nothing greater than your presence. I am yours now and forever God.

What God Said Tonight:

A particular spot, or day, has little to say for itself other than to bring into focus the reality of the moment and the purpose of the life. A life lived without knowing its purpose is never going to fulfill you. 

I have a purpose and plan on your life. I know you see glimpses of it. But, there is more to learn and more to gain from today before you are ready for that road of tomorrow. 

You will have one chance at the true purpose in your life and when it comes, I want you to know yourself that you were prepared for that day. 

I have loved you since the beginning of time and I will never stop. My love is not contingent on purpose. But out of that love, I give you purpose. I know how important that purpose is to my children. You came from me, it only makes sense. 

I love you my child.

Greener grass...

 

My prayer:

What a wonderful place to be Lord, in your presence. There is no greater experience than your love, your joy, your peace...you. 

Thank you for meeting with me tonight and for the immense joy and peace that your love brings to me. There truly are no words to express how awesome and magnificent you are. I am yours, now and forever God.

What God Said Tonight:

Grass is not always greener on the other side. I have shown you grass of your field and of the field across the way. The grass is the same and the grass I have given you is what you need for today. 

It will sustain you. It will fulfill you. I have no need for you to jump to another field and feed on that grass. That grass is intended for someone else. And, it is no better, it just is not yours, at this time. 

You hear me say, grow where you are planted. The same is true here. Eat where you are. I have provided for you and I will sustain you. 

I love you more than you will ever know or comprehend. 

Roadblocks...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. Thank you for today and all that it brought. Thank you for the fire (spiritual) and the rain (physical), both of which were so needed and appreciated! Thank you most of all God for this glimpse of a new season. This crazy path that you are opening up for me. It has been a while since we have gone on one of these crazy journeys and I am excited to see what you will do. What is on your mind tonight?

What God Said Tonight:

A roadblock is not always meant to stop you. Sometimes they are there to see how much you want something. Or even more telling, to show you how much you want something. I allow those roadblocks sometimes, just so you can realize how disappointed you would be if you did not get to go on the journey and reach the goal. 

In this journey, there will be times that you may wonder if it is worth it. It will be at those times that you can look back on tonight, on today, and remember the loss you felt when you thought it was not going to happen at all. 

I am your God and your Father and I will guide you in this as in everything. I will not leave you to flounder and I will make the seemingly impossible, possible. 

It is already done.

Individual blessing...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. What a blessing these last two days have been. Thank you for rest and restoration. Thank you for joy. Thank you for peace. Thank you for the opportunity to worship you in Spirit and in truth. Lord God, it has been fantastic but as I slow down to talk with you tonight, I can barely keep my eyes open. Please speak and let me know anything I should know,

What God Said Tonight:

Listen carefully. There is purpose and plan on each day, each moment and every one of them is for your good. I have plans to bless the world on a global level but I have plans to bless you, as an individual, not just as a part of a people. 

We have all experienced those moments of peace that make no sense.

Walk down to the river and step in. It will not part for you this time but you will be able to walk in it and through it, regardless of the reason. 

I love you my child. It is your time. It is your purpose. It will be fulfilled. I am God.

Everything you need...

 

My prayer:

What an amazing day God! Thank you for the many reminders of how awesome you are and how you still move and work in our lives each day. Thank you for a place where I get to go and be encouraged, encourage others, and celebrate you!

As we have been talking about all day, I have no idea what is coming next but I am confident that you have provided EVERYTHING I need. Trusting in you now and forever my God.

What God Said Tonight:

There are many coming and looking for what you have found. 

I am searching out the clean hearts. The ones who have been through the fire and have come through with a reliance on me. I will need these warriors and survivors in the next phase. 

I will need those who have been tested and have learned the power of submission to me. I will need those who have spent the time in prayer and worship, that it is not something they have to think about doing, it is a normal response and a part of their lives. It is what brings them through the tough moments that are yet to come. 

Life, this life, has always been about preparing and ensuring you have everything you need. Now the time has come that those things that you need will be needed in full and used to your full advantage. 

I love you my daughter and I will see you victorious, using all that I have given you.

Resurrection, the beginning...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. A fantastic celebration of your resurrection today! 

What you did for us, for me, is unfathomable. I grew up hearing about it and knowing it so sometimes I have to take a step back and realize what you did. You gave up your life, for me. You fought and beat the devil, for me. You were resurrected, for me. You did all for me that I could know you God. 

Wow. Thank you seems like not enough. You are Holy, worthy, magnificent, and I am all yours. 

What God Said Tonight:

Resurrection was the beginning. It was what made everything possible. 

Our journey since that time is still going and will never stop. I have you carved in the palm of my hand because I love you more than you can ever know. I will not let you fall. I will not let you be destroyed. I will see you prosper and live a life of joy and peace. 

I am yours. I gave my life for you and I am yours. I will walk out every challenge and opposition. Nothing can defeat you when I am with you. 

I love you my child, now and forever.
