My prayer:
My God your blessings are overwhelming!!! I cannot believe...well let me rephrase, I am amazed at what you did today. You keep multiplying my blessings! You keep multiplying the opportunities. You keep multiplying God and IT IS AWESOME!!!
I did not know, did not believe that life could be this good. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!! Thank you for making this life possible.
God, I pray that my life is pleasing to you. I pray that I bless you at least a little. I pray that you get at least a measure of the joy you pour out on me. LOVE YOU!!!!
What God Said Tonight:
Chains of light. That is what my kids are.
You, are a great reflection of my light. Everywhere you go, the darkness is illuminated by the light of me reflected off off you. But your one light, your one reflection is not enough to do what I need to do now. I need you to link up with your brothers and sisters. I need you to be a chain of light that canvasses the entire earth. Decorate the world with the chain of light. Cover every corner with my light.
Link up and shine.
Does God still speak to us? YES! These are conversations with God for more than the last 10 years

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.

God's eyes...
My prayer:
Mighty God, my protector. Today was rough but not as rough as it could have been. When I started to look at all of the things you protected me from today...or at least the things that I know about, it really changed how I saw today. During the day, I was focused on the struggles, the battles, all of the things that were going wrong.
But then, you kept me safe when there were traffic accidents all around. You made me successful at work despite the challenges. You placed me in a position for new opportunities to be a blessing.
You are so amazing God. Any day, any situation looked at through your eyes changes. Challenges turn into opportunities. Worry turns into faith. Lack turns into an appreciation for all that I have. Looking through your eyes God, this is a really good life! I love you God. Thank you for letting me borrow your eyes tonight.
What God Said Tonight:
My eyes are yours to borrow whenever you want. It is possible to live your life with that kind of vision, everyday and every night. It is possible. It is not easy. You have to be more focused on me than the thing in front of your face. You have to be more focused on me than on the the thing that is screaming for your attention. It isn't easy but it is worth it.
You can live a life, on this earth, of joy, love peace, and understanding. You can, if you want to you. You have to concentrate to hear my voice over the voice that screams for your attention. You have to get still. You have to take time. I am speaking all of the time, but I won't shout, most of the time. There are so many things shouting for your attention, I don't want to become one of the crowd. I will speak softly and wait for you to take the time and the effort to hear me in the midst of the chaos. I am always here and I am always speaking if you will take the time to get quiet and listen to me.
I love you daughter and I am working in every aspect of your life all of the time. Even when you don't see it, even when you don't hear me, even when you doubt me, I am still working everything for your good. You have shown yourself to be after my heart and I have given you promises because of that. You have done what I have asked you to do and I will do what I have promised to do. I am worthy of your trust.
Great things are on the horizon. Most of them will come from situations that look bleak right now. It is one way I can show you my power. It is one way I help you to build your faith. I love you and I am always here, working it out for you.

You are interesting...
My prayer:
Awesome Lord God. My mind is all over the place tonight. Thinking about the day, thinking about tomorrow, thinking about how you touched people today, thinking about what you taught me today, thinking...And, yet none of it seems worth really talking about.
I seem to be feeling that way a lot. I always have a lot to say, but sometimes I wonder if any of it is worth saying?
I can talk about you. That is always good. I can talk about how loving and amazing you are. I can talk about how I love that after all of this time, you can still teach me brand new stuff. I can talk about how I love being in your presence. How, in your presence I feel a peace and a love and an indescribable joy that I don't ever want to be without. That is the good stuff. Anything to do with you is worth talking about. The rest in wasting air.
What God Said Tonight:
You don't have to think up things to talk to me about. I just want to hear what is on your mind. Whatever that is. I want to hear from you.
I love you . You interest me. Your thoughts are interesting to me. I want to hear about the things that you enjoy and the things you don't enjoy. I want to share your joy and take on your pain. I want to be in full relationship with you.
I don't want us to have a relationship where you only talk to me when the important stuff comes up. I want to know it all. When I ask you how your day is, I don't want to hear "fine" I really want to know. Yes, I am with you all day but I don't experience it the same way you do. I want to hear what your experience of our day has been. I want to know how life looked to you today.
I love you daughter. When it comes down to it, I want to know you and I want you to know me. I want to be in a relationship with you that is so intimate and so strong, nothing can ever shake it. I want my thoughts and your thoughts to be woven together as one. I want to share everything with you. I love you and I am yours forever.

Preparation...
My prayer:
Awesome God. I feel kind of bad God. I don't seem to have much to talk to you about lately. Mainly my prayers during the day have been for other people or for your will to be done in my life.
The rest of the time, I am just trying to keep up. You keep sending all these amazing opportunities to me and it doesn't leave a lot of time for self reflection. It seems like this is a season of abundance and for storing up (like "G" said yesterday). Maybe I should just go with that and not try to force anything else?
Love you like crazy God. What is on your mind tonight?
What God Said Tonight:
Every season has a purpose. Everything I do in your life has a significance beyond today. Every single thing that happens in your life is a preparation for tomorrow. Every celebration, every struggle, every moment of peace, every moment of strife, every new birth and every death, has meaning beyond today.
Remember as you go through times like this that there is a future purpose and use for what you are experiencing now. Pay attention. I have a lot to teach and not a lot of time to do it. I have a lot to give you and not a lot of time to give it. I love you daughter and we have to do things all at once now so that we don't run out of time. I will teach you as we go, as we do, as we minister. There was a time where I had the luxury to teach first and then test and then bless. Now, I have to overlap those processes to get it all into you faster. Pay close attention and learn well so we can do what we need to do.
I love you and I want you to get to experience every good thing that I have for you I want you life to be filled with joy, peace and purpose. I want so much for you. I want to bless you coming in and gong out. Blessed above and beneath, on the left and on the right. I want to surround you with my blessing. I love you and always will.

The truth exposed...
My prayer:
God, my God. I don't want to get in the way tonight. I just want to listen.
What God Said Tonight:
The whitewash is coming off. Things and people are being exposed for the truth that is within them. There was a time when people could hide their sin for years. That time is over. All truth is being exposed right now. Some of it is not pretty. But this is necessary.
People are not going to be able to hide behind their comfortable masks any longer.
It is time to live your life in the open. It is time to make sure that your life, that your heart is right with me so as the truth is exposed, I am exposed in you. Truth is good, but it can be painful sometimes. Let me be your truth and you will never need to worry. I am the truth and I will see the truth exposed in all things and in all people.
I love you daughter. Gert ready for the truth.

Time is short...
My prayer:
My God, Lord. Wonderful day, beautiful night, and always amazing to be here with you. I love closing each day in conversation with you. You know, I try to talk with you in the morning first thing, but my brain isn't really functioning very well yet. You definitely did not make me a morning person! Then, we are really talking all day, but there are other distractions most of that time.
It is these times God, these times at night when I get to focus on you, that are so precious and wonderful. I love to hear your voice. It is my third favorite thing in the world. It comes after experiencing your love and seeing you do miracles but, pretty high on the list! Today was wonderful. Thank you for your continued favor, new friends from far off places, and health. I love you and can't wait to hear what you want to say tonight...
What God Said Tonight:
You know I keep talking about how time is running short. You are hearing me when I say that right? This is not a time for procrastination. This is not the time to wait until tomorrow. This is the time to act, to move, to do and be all that I have called you to.
Be encouraged and never worry. I will never call you to anything that I have not already equipped you for. First, there is the battle, then the training, then the test, then the blessing. That is the cycle.
We are about to enter the season of testing in preparation for the blessing (or cursing for some people). But, I tell you time is short. You will not know the hour or the day of it but I am on my way back to you. It will not be long.
I will take you as far as you are willing to go. I will see you doing my will around the world 24/7. Get ready...

God moved in...
My prayer:
Father God. Your presence is thick here tonight.
I love being in your presence. I can't imagine what it is like for people who have never experienced your presence. It is like air to me. I cannot live without your presence. Now that I know you, and as I get to know you better every day, I want to be in your presence all the time. Waiting for "church" is not enough. I need to experience you when I wake up in the morning, in the shower, during breakfast, during my commute, at work, after work, at home, with friends, when I am alone...ALWAYS.
God, you are welcome any place I am and you are welcome any time. I LOVE YOU LIKE CRAZY! What do you want to say tonight God? I am hear listening.
What God Said Tonight:
I live in you. When you invited me into your life, into your heart, I moved right in. You will never be without my presence because I am in you.
Remember that day? It was so beautiful, by the river, you invited me into your heart. I moved in that day and I will never move out unless you evict me. I love you so much and I don't ever want to be apart from you again.
You are my precious daughter and heir. You will receive every blessing in my will to you. They are all yours right now, right here. There is no need to wait to receive my promises. They are ALL for you.
My children can have so much more than what they are settling for. A day will come, and come soon, when my children will step into and receive their full inheritance. But, you can have it all now if you want it. My promises are for today. Not yesterday and not tomorrow. My promises are for you and they are for today.
Love you. Rest well and prepare to receive ALL that I have for you.

Humility...
My prayer:
Mighty God. You have given me two messages about obedience and the consequences of disobedience tonight...Usually, when you are really trying to get my attention, you tell me things three times in a row in different ways. But, if I am being disobedient in some aspect, I don't want to wait for a third message.
Please show me where it is God. I will do all that I can to change. I don't ever want to be disobedient to your will. I know you and your will for me well enough to know that it is always best. How many times have you shown me, even when at first it was hard to see, that your will is best? I absolutely get it God.
So, if I am out of agreement with your will, if I am being disobedient, please show me where so I can change. If it is something that I don't know how to change, please help me change. I love you God and I only want your will in my life, nothing more and nothing less.
What God Said Tonight:
I need you to take a look at humility tonight. I need you to look at your humility and it's evil twin pride.
I have been pouring out a blessing on you that you cannot contain and it is my great pleasure to do it. But, if we are not careful, you will end up prideful and forgetting where it comes from. You will forget the purpose of the blessing. You will forget that I bless you so you can be a blessing to others. You will forget that the blessing is not yours to keep but is yours to give.
Just a friendly reminder my daughter. Watch your step and humble yourself now before it gets in the way. I love you and I want to continue to bless you. Show me that you will not let it ruin you. Show me that you remember the reason for your blessing.

Chocolates and barbed wire...
My prayer:
Mighty God. I am not sure what to pray about tonight. Today was good, but nothing stands out to talk about. Everybody seemed to kind of coast today. Nothing phenomenal and nothing horrible. Just a day. I am grateful for all of the things that you protected us from today. I am grateful that there was nothing horrible happening with me or the people close to me.
I know that was not true throughout the world. Maybe that is the thing...God I pray for all of the tragedies and people suffering that I don't know about tonight. God I pray and ask that you wrap your arms around them, let them know that you love them, let them know that you have not forgotten them and that you will get them out of this horrible situation. God, you promise as our Father to take care of us. You promise as our Redeemer to give back what was stolen from us. You promise as our healer to take away our sickness. You promise as our provider to provide for our every need. God I claim your promises tonight for all of my brothers and sisters across the world who are in need tonight. In Jesus name, amen.
What God Said Tonight:
Life is not like a box of chocolates like they said in that movie. Life is more like a box of chocolates and barbed wire. Sin has left the world, has left you, with the consequences of sin and the pain that comes with it.
I am here for you and for all of my children. We don't have too much longer to wait. The assignment here on earth is almost complete. We are very close to the times described in Revelations. We are very close to the time when we all get to live together in the new earth and in the new Jerusalem. The time is almost here.
In the meantime, keep bringing your needs, your concerns, your worries to me and I will be faithful to my word. I will heal, provide, love, redeem and guide you forever. I will be all that you need. You have heard it preached, I am all. It is all that I know to be. I am your all and I will provide for you all.
I love you and I have heard your prayer. Your prayer opened an opportunity for me to move in situations that I was locked out of before. Thank you my daughter. Keep praying and I will keep showing up.

I'm not enough...
My prayer:
Amazing God. Sometimes, like tonight, when I look at all of the wonderful things and all of the wonderful people you trust me with, I start to worry that I am not enough. I worry that I am not good enough. I worry that I won't be able to listen and hear you well enough when they need it most. When people are at their most hopeless and most vulnerable, God, what if I don't say or do the right thing?
Now, I know it is you working through me and not really me at all. But, what if I am doing something to block you. What if my own flaws are too big and cloud what you want to do in their lives? You know me God, I want to fix everything. What if my trying to fix things actually gets in the way of what you are trying to accomplish? I bet if I was there with Lazarus, I would have been doing CPR to keep him alive instead of waiting to see what you wanted to do. I hate seeing other people in pain God. It is harder than experiencing pain myself. Why is that I wonder?
God, please give me everything I need to do everything you have called me to do. Please speak through me when people need you. And, God, please bust through any flaws in me that might try to get in the way. LOVE YOU!
What God Said Tonight:
You are looking at the wrong place for the solution. You are looking at you and you should be looking at me. I am the answer. I am the way out. I am.
As long as you look within yourself to help people, you will always fall short. You, even with all of the best intentions, can not permanently and effectually help. You can provide a band-aid but you can't make a lasting difference on your own. But, when you look to me for the solution. When you trust me to do the things I have already promised, that is when you will see things change for good. That is when you will see people healed, raised from the dead, given new life and hope.
I am what they need. Give them me and you will always see them recover. I love you daughter. Give them me, it is really that simple.
Amazing God. Sometimes, like tonight, when I look at all of the wonderful things and all of the wonderful people you trust me with, I start to worry that I am not enough. I worry that I am not good enough. I worry that I won't be able to listen and hear you well enough when they need it most. When people are at their most hopeless and most vulnerable, God, what if I don't say or do the right thing?
Now, I know it is you working through me and not really me at all. But, what if I am doing something to block you. What if my own flaws are too big and cloud what you want to do in their lives? You know me God, I want to fix everything. What if my trying to fix things actually gets in the way of what you are trying to accomplish? I bet if I was there with Lazarus, I would have been doing CPR to keep him alive instead of waiting to see what you wanted to do. I hate seeing other people in pain God. It is harder than experiencing pain myself. Why is that I wonder?
God, please give me everything I need to do everything you have called me to do. Please speak through me when people need you. And, God, please bust through any flaws in me that might try to get in the way. LOVE YOU!
What God Said Tonight:
You are looking at the wrong place for the solution. You are looking at you and you should be looking at me. I am the answer. I am the way out. I am.

Choose...
My prayer:
Awesome God, what a wonderful relaxing and restful day. Thank you for a life that allows the luxury of a day of rest each week. I am more than convinced that you made us that way. That you made us to need that day to rest and not work.
God, I don't have a lot to talk about tonight. Life is generally wonderful with just the one thing missing. But, most of the time, I don't even notice it is missing any more so, it is probably not so important.
I guess the one thing that is weighing a bit heavy on my mind is all of the people that are miserable but seem to be unreachable. The people who need you so much but seem to not know it or be willing to listen to someone telling them that they need you. I am thinking about "D" and "J" tonight in particular. It is so clear that they are not going to make it without you, but I don't know how to make them see that. Why would they listen to me?
God, you know what will reach them. Please bring whatever that is to them soon. If I am supposed to be a part of that, just let me know when and where and I will be there. I love you Father. I am yours for whatever you want or need.
What God Said Tonight:
People are making choices every day. You made choices today. Some were good choices that will enhance and grow your life. Others were not so good. Others will limit your life. It is true the world over. People are constantly making decisions, good and bad. Even when they say I am choosing not to choose, that itself is a choice.
I would love to be able to blanket the whole world and draw them in but it doesn't work that way. They have to choose and they have to be free to chose. I will set free the captives and deliver the refugees. But they will have to choose.
I will continue to send people and messages to those you love my daughter. I love them so much and I want to save them. They have to turn to me. Not a big ceremony, but they need to call out to me and choose me. I promise, the moment I hear them choosing me, I will be RIGHT THERE.
I love you daughter. Go rest, we have some work to do tomorrow.

The time is HERE...
My prayer:
Today was amazing and tonight was awesome God. I have not ever felt your weighty presence like I did tonight God. You had me plastered to the ground for most of prayer and worship. I probably should have felt helpless but I just felt joy.
God, the anointing you poured out on us tonight was so precious and amazing. I can't wait to see how you use that anointing to bless others. I can't wait to see what comes next.
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! I am absolutely crazy about you. God, I give you every worry, trusting you to take care of me and of the people around me. I trust you to take care of every situation. I trust you God. All of me God, you have all of me.
What God Said Tonight:
You are more patient that you use to be and that is good but the time for waiting is over. The time to act is here. The time to move is here. The time too take what you have been given and pour it out as you move to the next level, is here.
You don't have to worry about losing what you have. As you pour out what you have, I will multiply it back to you. You will always have more tomorrow than you did yesterday. I am a God of multiplication. Things around me increase. Things around me multiply. Things around me come to life. Dead things live. Live things flourish.
I am the way, the truth and the life. I am the life. I am the life that breathes in your lungs. I am the life that people search for. I am everything you will ever need.
Get ready, the time is here. You will be in an arena you never thought possible, doing and seeing things you have only dreamed of. The dream is about to come true. The time to live is here. You are going to love this!

Speak the promise...
My prayer:
My amazing God. I started to pray and forgot to type! I AM tired! :) God, I thank you for everything you have done and everything you do. I thank you for loving me. I thank you for taking care of everything and everyone.
I thank you for hearing my prayers tonight for "D","D" and "J" who are each in impossible situations with no way out unless you help. Thank you Jesus for being our savior! What do you want to talk about tonight God? What is top of your list tonight?
What God Said Tonight:
My list never really changes. You, my children, are always at the top of it.
I need you to do something tonight. I need you to remember and speak my promises over their situations. The people you are talking about don't know the word well enough to do that. So, I know you are tired, but before you go to bed, speak my words over their situations and see the opening that makes for me to come in and intervene.
I am your Father and your coach. I love to see you work, you make me proud. I love you and thank you in advance for doing what I asked. I love you my dear child and I am all yours.

God gave...
My prayer:
Blessed and highly favored of the Lord...God, they always use to say that in church..."How are you?" "I am blessed and highly favored". I never paid too much attention. It sounded so "churchy" and insincere.
What I did not understand is that being blessed and highly favored in You is a real thing! You bless everything I touch. You gave me the perfect job that fulfills me so much. You give me friends and partners that complete me in ways that would be impossible without them. You give me opportunities everyday to serve you and your people. It is all so amazing!
I prayed for so many years for this life...well, the details were different. I thought I knew best so I prayed for some specific things. Thankfully you listened to my heart and not the specifics. You gave me what I needed to be completely satisfied. Thank you for giving me the life that would result in the joy and fullness that I as hoping for and thank you for not giving me what I thought I needed to have that life. You are awesome God and I am so grateful to you!!!
What God Said Tonight:
I gave you my heart. The rest is just icing. I have loved you since the beginning of time and I will love you through eternity. i have this great desire to pour out my love on you tonight my daughter. I want you to feel my love surround you. I want my love to be the last thing you experience today before you go to bed. I want my love to be the first thing you experience in the morning. Tomorrow morning, pay attention. I want to show you my love first thing in the morning.
I think about you all the time. You are engraved in the palm of my hand and I will never let you down.
You can trust me with my kids. I will never let them down. When you pray for others, pray in the confidence of my will for their lives. That is important, no more than ever.
Love like you have always wanted to love. Celebrate every victory and rest your weary head with me tonight.

The heart...
My prayer:
Thank you amazing God for a wonderful day. You healed my back, I got to teach and bless people, you brought me a new client...Good stuff God!
God, I think I have been getting a little self centered lately. I notice when I look over the praise reports on What God Did Today, that most of them lately are about what you are doing for me and not about what you are doing in the lives of people around me. It makes me think that I am too focused on my needs and that I have not been focused enough on the needs of others, like I am not doing enough for the people around me.
God, I know that you bless me so I can bless others. I don't think I have been enough of a blessing lately. I apologize God and I will try to do better. I will start focusing more on others and less on myself. I will redirect my goals to spend more time helping others and less time on my stuff.
I love you God. What is on your mind tonight?
What God Said Tonight:
The heart is what I see and what I care about. Veron said it in the message you watched. What do you do when no one is watching? The answer to that question will tell you volumes about your own heart and your own motivations.
With me it is all about the motivations. You will never be able to do all the things that I have for you on your own and I don't expect you to. I only expect you to try because your heart is in the right place.
Where is your heart tonight? Is it in a place where you want to bless people and see people blessed? Or are you focused on what you are going to get next? When you wake up, are your first thought about fulfilling your won needs or is your first thought about helping someone else out.
Discern your own heart and then find ways to correct where it is not right. where it doesn't love in truth. You can change your heart. It happens all the time. You hear people say it, "I have had a change of heart..."
I love you daughter and I love your heart. Protect it, it has a lot of loving left to do.

Hitting bottom...
My prayer:
My God, I am worried about the people who are at the end of their rope tonight. Good, amazing, and wonderful people who know you and love you and are having trouble having the strength and the hope to go on. God, sometimes this life is so hard. Sometimes, it does not seem worth it.
I say that it does not "seem" worth it because, fact is, when I am that down, if I give it a little time, I see the amazing wonder of life with you. I see the purpose. I see the value and the preciousness that this life is. But, sometimes it is hard to hold on in the "valleys" in the dark times, long enough to see the light that you have for us.
God, I pray that you continue to bring people around me to encourage me when I am down. I pray God that you help me to be that encouragement to other people. God I pray and ask that you make me sensitive to when people are at that point and then give me the words and the actions that will bring your comfort and your hope to them.
What God Said Tonight:
You have yet to see what I can do in the face of tragedy. I do my best work when there is no hope. I do my best work when people are at the end of their rope and without hope. Those are the times that I can really get close to my people. Those are the moments they are most likely to let me.in.
Don't get me wrong. I hate tragedy and pain. I hate to see my children suffer.
But I love that I get to be their way out. I love the closeness that can come out of it. I am hope and light and I will come to the rescue of anyone who asks. I will come and provide a way out to all those who ask. I am here, ready and waiting to be your answer, your hope. I am here waiting.
I love you daughter. Keep living a life that is an example of hope so people know who to call when they hit bottom. I am ready.

Peace and trust...
My prayer:
What an awesome day of rest and of peace God. No demands, no worries, no pressure. Thank you God for giving me rest. Thank you for the challenges you give me. Thank you for the gifts you give me to meet the challenges and thank you that you always give me rest when the challenge is done.
God, you always give me everything I need. "Grateful" and "Thank you" are just words and they seem so little in the face of all that you have done and all that you do. I love you God and I am beyond grateful for you in my life.
I ask God that you help me to be super productive tomorrow to get all the things done that I did not do today. Show me each thing that you want me to do, when you want me to do it. Thank you God!
What God Said Tonight:
I am your peace. Come and rest in me and I will give you peace. When you see and recognize that I am in charge and that I really will take care of you and all of your needs all the days of your life, when you really believe that, there is no fear, no worry, no stress that can bother you.
Do you want to live a stress free life? It is completely attainable. It is completely possible and all you have to do is trust me as much as you say you do. All you have to do is trust me to be me. i will always bless you and I will always provide a way out for you.
I love you. I want the best for you. I want you to be blessed and happy. I want you to be completely fulfilled and healthy. I want you to be all that I created you to be.
Trust me, trust my motives and live in the peace that it brings.

The true picture...
My prayer:
My God, I have delayed this time with you tonight because I am disappointed and I don't know what to say.
I really thought you were going to keep the miracles coming with our team, but we lost and we are out. I don't care about the game itself but each time you caused us to win, more and more people were paying attention to you. Or, at least it seemed that way. Over 90,000 people liked a scripture post on FB from Tim Tebow tonight. I mean, WOW!
So, I am disappointed and confused. I don't see how this loss furthers your Kingdom or spreads your word. Suddenly it is just football again.
OK, I am done whining. The fact is, you can use and do anything and if you wanted to continue to spread your word that way, you would of. Who am I to second guess you? God, if it is possible, I would love to see the and understand how you will use this to spread your word. I ask God that you help me to see that even in this, you can reach people. Maybe that was part of it. Maybe it got to be too much about football and not enough about you? I don't know but I know that I love you and I trust you God.
What God Said Tonight:
Sometimes you have to look at what isn't there to see the true picture of what is there. Sometimes the background is as important as the foreground.
I am still in charge and I will be here forever. I love you daughter and while things did not turn out like you hoped, they are just as i intended. See the whole picture and you will get the clarity you are looking for.
I love you daughter, come and rest with me.

Got hope...?
My prayer:
Incredible God, Father, teacher, and love of my life.
How was your day? Did you get blessed today God? Did you get to do anything fun? Did we worship you in spirit and in truth. Did we share your love with each other and with you?
God, I hope your day was the best ever. I hope that you are blessed more than you are "cursed." I hope that your will is accomplished throughout the world. I love you God and I want only good things for you.
What God Said Tonight:
Hope is a good thing. Hope with assurance is faith. Faith with action can move mountains.
It all begins with hope. I am your hope. Start with me and you will see mountains move. You will see blind eyes see. You will see the dead rise up and live. You will see creative miracles where jewels fall from the sky. You will...all because you started with some hope.
I was blessed today and I am blessed right now, here with you. I love you daughter. Keep sharing my word. Make sure everyone has a chance to hear and to believe. Laugh, live, and be at peace with my will in your life. You are my blessing. Your hope, your faith, your actions are my blessing. I love you and will forever.

Share it...
My prayer:
Awesome God, I am too exhausted to think but I have to hear your voice. Tonight is all you...
What God Said Tonight:
I love you daughter and I will give you rest tonight that will restore you. Your path the last couple of days has not been easy but it has been good. You will use the things you were reminded of throughout your entire life and beyond. Everything you learn in this life is one step up in eternity.
Every thing you learn today is blessing to those you know tomorrow. There are so many people hurting in the world today. They need your help. They need my help through you. They need my love through you. They need my wisdom through you.
I will always teach, love and bless you but it is never meant for you to hold onto. It is all meat to be shared. Don't hold back. When I teach you something, tell EVERYONE. It is a lot like a viral video. That is how we are going to get my word to every creature on earth. That is how we are going to fulfill the prophecy. Same concept.
If you share me with everyone you know and they share me with everyone they know and so on, before long, we will have reached every last person across the world. You don't have to reach every person personally but you have to do you part. You have to share. Don't be stingy with what I give you. Share it everywhere you go.
I love you daughter. Go rest now. Tomorrow is another day with more to do, but you will love itl

Adversity...
My prayer:
Awesome God. Today was such a good reminder that you are bigger than anything I come up against. You didn't stop the snow like I prayed and asked for, but you made everything perfect anyways. I think I should stop praying so much for what I think i want and start praying more for what you want. I mean, I always try to make sure that the things I ask for are things that you also want for me; but, I am starting to think that I am approaching prayer from the wrong angle. If I stop worrying about what I want and focus more on what you want, I think everything will be better.
God, I pray tonight that every single thing that you want for my life is accomplished. Bring in everything you want in my life and take out anything you don't want in my life. Period, that is it.
Thank you God for wanting better things for my life than I can even imagine. The story of my life that you come up with is so much better and more interesting than what I would have written without you!
What God Said Tonight:
It is funny. I have always had a plan and purpose for your life and I have always let you know that. When you see the plan, you sometimes pick out the parts you like and pray for those things to happen. Now, if you can change your thinking the way we are talking about tonight, you will begin to see and experience the full plan I have for you. It is so much better, fuller and richer than what you have known so far.
Things going smoothly, without trouble, is not always the best thing for my Kingdom and for my people. Sometimes, it is in the adversity that the true growth happens. It is in overcoming adversity that others are inspired. It is when things don't go your way and you still trust and praise me that you gain a new level of peace and joy in your life that cannot be taken away.
Adversity, trouble, is not the enemy. Sometimes, it is the perfect tool. I will always make sure you win in the end. You are my kid. I don't let my kids lose. I will never leave you. i will always take care of you. Accept my complete will in your life and see what you can be.
Awesome God. Today was such a good reminder that you are bigger than anything I come up against. You didn't stop the snow like I prayed and asked for, but you made everything perfect anyways. I think I should stop praying so much for what I think i want and start praying more for what you want. I mean, I always try to make sure that the things I ask for are things that you also want for me; but, I am starting to think that I am approaching prayer from the wrong angle. If I stop worrying about what I want and focus more on what you want, I think everything will be better.
God, I pray tonight that every single thing that you want for my life is accomplished. Bring in everything you want in my life and take out anything you don't want in my life. Period, that is it.

Inspiration...
My prayer:
My wonderful God! I am inspired tonight. I am inspired by how you create each of us to inspire each other. God I love to see when your kids use whatever they have, for you. They always become an inspiration when they do. Whether they were born without arms and legs and with the most amazing spirit or you gave them amazing skills at football and an amazing faith or you gave them the ability to love people, really love them, no matter what it is, when they use it for you, it is SO INSPIRING!!
Thank you God for surrounding me with inspiring people. Thank you God that every once in awhile, you inspire people through me. Help me to be more of an inspiration!
What God Said Tonight:
Inspiration is a fountain that springs up and splashes everyone around it. Come to me and I will cover you with an inspiration from a never ending well. I will cover you with inspiration from the living water well and you will never lack for anything ever again.
I will light your life with joy and with hope every day. I will show you what is possible and then I will show you the impossible. I will lead you down paths you did not even know existed. I will do such amazing things, even you won't be able to quite believe it. I plan to leave you in shock and awe.
Receive my inspiration through the people around you and the world around you. Receive my inspiration directly through my Spirit. Receive my inspiration anywhere you can. It will sustain you and give you a purpose and direction every day of your life. Live for me and you will never be sorry. I love you daughter. Let you light shine.

God's fight...
My prayer:
My God you are worthy, holy, amazing, wonderful, and so much more that I don't have the words for. I am so grateful that I get to live life with you. I am so grateful that you didn't leave me in my mess but that you loved me enough to show me a better way to live. I thank you for every teacher you brought into my life. I thank you for every lesson you ever taught me. I thank you for being Lord of my life and loving me. I am all yours God, now and forever.
God I bind fear off of my life. You have not given me a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a strong mind. I refuse to allow fear to rule my life in any area. I choose to trust you in everything and walk in the confidence that you have everything under control. I am all yours God.
What God Said Tonight:
My Spirit is surrounding you even now my daughter. There is no thing in your life that can defeat my Spirit.
Remember your hero David. He know what it was to trust me to defeat the enemy. He fought, he showed up and he fought but he never lost sight of the one who was fighting and winning for him. He never once went into battle without asking me if he should go. He would ask if I would deliver the enemy to him. He knew that the real battle was mine and that all he had to do was find out when and where I wanted to fight it.
I am nearly done fighting. We are nearly to the time of peace. You will be stunned by the time of peace. You will be shocked at how freeing it is. You can have that freedom right now if you want it. Surrender every worry to me and you will live freer than you have ever known. Walk away from your fear, your worry, your doubt. Leave it behind. It does you no good.
I am with you always. I will never leave you and I will never turn my back on you. NEVER. I will protect you and provide for you. I will make sure that you win. I love you daughter and I am all yours too.

What's next...
My Prayer:
Mighty and powerful God. Today was wonderful. Thank you for all that you taught me. Thank you for the people you blessed me with. Thank you for proving once again that you can use anything and anybody to show off your glory.
As I prepare for this week God, there are a lot of unknowns. I pray for your guidance God. I ask that you tell me each thing I need to know as I need to know it. Show me what to do, what to say, how to think about each circumstance that comes my way. God, help me to bless others. Help me to receive the blessing they are to me. Help me to love and be loved better than ever before.
God, I pray that you restore me so that I can pour out onto other people. Clean me up so I correctly reflect you. Heal me that I have the strength and the stamina to do all that you have called me to do.
I love you God and with your help, I am ready for whatever this week brings.
What God Said Tonight:
The fact is, you never know what is coming next. I know that you get lulled into a complacency of thinking that you know what is coming next, but you don't really. I will always lead and guide you. I know what the future has for you and I will make sure that you experience every last thing that I have for you.
You have noticed that I am surrounding you with new miracles? Expect more of that. You have noticed that you are more focused on love, giving and receiving, than ever before? That is me too. I am going to show you the next level in love, in miracles, in ministry, in spreading my light throughout the world.
The prophecies you have heard this weekend are real and are from me. You are going to see multiplication like you cannot imagine. I choose you to be my conduit to the world. I chose you to be my daughter. I chose you to be with me forever. I LOVE YOU.

Temptation...
My prayer:
Amazing God. Today has been good but also threaded throughout the day has been a struggle with temptation. All day long, I have been tempted with thoughts and things that I usually have a pretty good handle on.
I don't know why today was different. I found myself thinking, "Well, it wouldn't be so bad if I did it just once...would it?" It has been a long time since I have lied to myself like that God. I know God that all sin is sin and you hate it. I know that anything that takes me from you is sin and I need to run from it. I don't know why I forgot that a few times today.
I pray God that you help me be strong. I pray God that you help me resist the devil. I pray God that you lead me not into temptation but deliver me from evil. Help me God to live a life that is a blessing to you and to those around me. In Jesus name, amen.
What God Said Tonight:
Our enemy is against you and trying to get you off tract because he knows what is in your future. He is panicking and desperately trying to get you off of the path that I have for you. He is pulling out all the stops and will stop at nothing to keep you from the destiny that I have for you. He hates you and hates your future. He hates what you life is going to do for my Kingdom. He hates the vision and the plan that I have given you.
Today was a day of temptation and of tests. You did not act and you eventuallly took each thought captive. I will help you fight. I will keep you strong. I need you to keep your eyes on me with out fail. I need you to focus on me and not on the temptations around you. I need your attention if you are going to get through this season unscathed.
I love you daughter and I am here for you. You are not alone and you will not fight this battle alone. He is already defeated and you know who wins. Remember that no matter how good you think that temptation is going to be, it will never be worth the cost. Never.

Angels...
My prayer:
Awesome God. I am completely spent. This was an awesome day of you making everything work out for my good and it was a blast but I have nothing left tonight. I gave it all away. So, as I sit here with a silly grin on my face, I wait in anticipation to hear your voice...
What God Said Tonight:
I am speaking softly tonight because the atmosphere is still. There is a hush in the spirit world tonight. All is quiet in preparation. All is quiet in awe and adoration. When it is time, the angels will rise up with a mighty roar and charge out to accomplish their purpose. Some will be fighting, others will be protecting, and still others will take my message throughout the world.
There are more angels than anyone realizes. They are my army and they are my servants. They are wonderful and they are for you. They love you because they love me and I love you. They love to serve because they love me. Some are singers, some play instruments, and others praise me with their actions and obedience.
You are no different. You praise me with your voice, with instruments, and with your actions too. Angels are different from men in other ways but there is no animosity. There is only love.
The spirit world is getting ready for the next battle. Enjoy the peace and the stillness while it lasts. I love you daughter. Go rest and we will start it up again tomorrow.

Why God blesses...
My prayer:
Incredible God! Thank you for the fresh revelation of what my life is with you compared to what it would be without you tonight. You take such great care of me and bless me so much, it is easy to get complacent and forget how incredible it really is!!
God I celebrate you tonight. I give you every bit of gratefulness that is in me. I thank you with everything I have and everything I am. You are INCREDIBLE!
I get to live out my dreams, safe, provided for and redeemed because you love me. Thank you God for giving me so much more than I could ever deserve. I LOVE YOU!
What God Said Tonight:
You have what you have because I love you and because you were open to receive it. I have so much for you but I can only give you what you are willing to receive.
Somehow, I need to break off that idea that you have to earn things from me. You continue to get stuck in the idea that you have to earn my blessings and you have to earn my love.
You have my love, now and forever and there is nothing you can do that will make me love you more or make me love you less. NOTHING. I love the soul of you. I love you because you are a part of me. I am going to bless you because I can't help myself. I am going to bless you because I have to show my love to you. Love needs action just like faith needs action to be worth anything.
My blessings are all yours and waiting for you. The more you open up and are willing to receive my blessing, regardless of what you do or do not deserve, the more I can bless you. Your blessing is not about your performance It is all about my love for you. Open up and receive a blessing you can not contain. I am getting ready to pour...

Learn, live, teach...
My prayer:
You are so wonderful God!!! That's it really. You are wonderful and I love you and you take care of everything and you are so wonderful!!
Today was crazy busy but so much fun. It was fantastic to watch you line everything up for me, showing me each thing to do as it needed to be done. Then you covered it all with your favor! Everything I am, everything I have done, and everything good in me is only because of you God and because you are so wonderful! LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!
What God Said Tonight:
I love you too and I love to take care of you. I love it when you trust me. I love it when you believe me that I will work everything out even when it doesn't look good. I love when you see impossible situations as opportunities for me to work. I love it when you lead with your faith and not your fear. I love it when you remember what you know, what I have taught you and you don't listen to what the enemy (who only wants to see you destroyed) is saying to you. I love it.
Everything I tell you, everything I teach you is for tomorrow as well as for today. Everything I teach you is for others as well as yourself. Everything you learn should be something that you are teaching to people around you. Not shoving it down their throats in a judgmental way, which happens way too often, but teaching them by example and teaching them in love.
Everything in you and in your life is not just for you. It is for every person that you touch. It is for every person in your realm of influence. That is the only way that we will get this message out to the entire world and have the gospel preached in every nation.
Remember what you know, live it everyday and teach to everyone you know. Thanks!

Fresh...
My prayer:
What a wonderful day God of you working everything out! Thank you for taking care of so many worries today and reminding me in action of what you said last night. You really do have it all under control!
God, there are some lessons, like this one, that I seem to have to learn over and over. That must get really frustrating for you? Thank you for your infinite patience with me. I am awfully glad that I am redeemed in the blood of Jesus. I am pretty sure that if I had lived in the Old Testament days, I would have been one of those kids that you got completely fed up with.
God, this has been an interesting vacation. I learned a lot, got a lot done; but I am ready to go back to work. That in itself is a miracle! I can't ever remember having a job that I liked well enough that I was excited to go back after vacation! You have given me a pretty amazing life God and i am so grateful!
I ask God, as I go back to work, for your favor on my life. Make me a blessing to the people around me. Make me prosper with that crazy and wonderful favor of yours and let it be a testimony to you and your power. God I love you with all that I am.
What God Said Tonight:
Old things are made new in me. I am bringing a freshness to your life. Things will be the same but they will seem brand new. There will be an excitement renewed and a fresh new sparkle on everything. You will find new joy in old things. You will find new appreciation of people and situations in your life.
This is a season of thanks giving that I am taking you into. Keep your eyes open and your heart open and enjoy the life I have given you. This is a season to celebrate. We are going to shake the dust off and see the world in vibrant fresh color. Fresh anointing, fresh ideas, fresh experience. You will see the world with the eyes of a child and renew your awe.
I love you daughter. This season is my gift to you.
