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.

This beautiful, complicated life...

My prayer:

I am kind of down tonight God with no good reason. I pray for your peace and joy to come over me tonight. Thank you for being so wonderful.

What God Said Tonight:

Life is more beautiful and more complicated than you may ever be able to understand. I can show you glimpses but to to see the whole picture would be overwhelming for you.

I have the full picture. I can see how the things that you think are so insignificant actually have great purpose. I can see how the thing that disappointed you had a greater purpose than you can imagine.

I promise, I will never disappoint you without a greater purpose. If I could, I would literally give you every thing you could ever want. I would shower you with blessings until you could not take any more. But, there are, right now, some circumstances, situations, needs, in both the physical and the spiritual world that sometimes mean that things don't turn out like you want them to.

Trust me that they are turning out the way they need to be and that I will bless you in the end.

God's love...

My prayer:

God I pray and ask for a greater level of your love in our lives. I pray for so much of your love in our lives that we stop hurting and being hurt by each other.

Your love heals. Your love strengthens. Your love makes us more than we were before. Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

My love goes wherever it is welcome. I will flood you with love if you will let me. You are the apple of my eye. You are my created child.

I made you to love. My love was born inside of you and grows every time you let it. My love is not boastful and my love will not go where it is not welcome. But where you welcome me, I will come in like a rushing river with more love than you can take.

You are my precious child and my love is all yours.

Many roads to blessing...

My prayer:

Today was one of those days where nothing went according to plan but everything turned out well.

You do that for me a lot. You take a mishmash of things that are not working and make them into something that does work. I am barreling down a track that is going no where when you nudge me to the right and suddenly I am right where I need to be.

Thank you for your blessing, your guidance, and your love God. I would not want to live this life without them.

What God Said Tonight:

There are a lot of ways that I can ensure the best for you. I have created many roads to your blessing. I have benefits for you that I have not even deployed yet but will take you to new heights to soar.

I will take you with me.

Soaring...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I worship you. I lay down every worry, every thought and every desire while I stand in awe of you and all that you are. Or, all that I am aware of that you are.

That is the amazing and wonderful thing about you God. As much as I know you, as close as we get, there is always more with you.

You are beyond limits, beyond boundaries, beyond my imagination. THAT is exciting and wonderful. Knowing that I will spend the rest of eternity with you and that you will always have more to teach me, more to share with me, more to show me, is truly wonderful. I LOVE YOU!

What God Said Tonight:

My Spirit rides the wind and sings in joy. I have you in my arms and together we will soar.

We will soar because I have destined you for greatness. We will soar because you were created for great things. We will soar because I have made you a royal priesthood. But we will also soar for the pure joy of it. We will soar to feel the wind in our hair. We will celebrate every victory and we support each other in every defeat.

I love you. Come soar with me.

The cure for jealousy...

My prayer:

Awesome God. Jealousy is such a destructive force. I don't normally have trouble with jealousy but once in awhile it comes up and when it does, it is so relentless. Even at the moment of feeling the jealousy I know that there is not good purpose for it. I know, even then, that it will do nothing but cause me misery. And yet, when it grabs a hold of me, it is really hard to get free.

God, I pray for a generous heart that automatically feels joy for the blessings on people around me. Help me to see and be satisfied with the blessings in my own life. God, disintegrate jealousy in my life.

What God Said Tonight:

Jealousy is nothing more than coveting what is not yours. It is the epitome of pride to want to be better and more blessed than the people around you. It is a remnant of the pride of man in you that needs to be burned and cauterized out of you. It does you no good. It does the people around you no good. Hold still while I remove this cancer from you.

Receive the ultimate worthiness that I have placed in you.  You never have to compare yourself to others because I have made you perfect in Christ. The God of all creation loves you. Those are good credentials.

Rescue and refuge...

My prayer:

Today was weird. So many things that went wrong and yet, even in the midst of things going wrong, I could see your hand protecting me from worse things. It was kind of like a tornado of bad things came at me and you pulled me to the side so I only had to deal with some wind.

Thank you for the wind God and keeping me out of the tornado. I love you.

What God Said Tonight:

It is another weather analogy and it is true. I have yet to see the storm that can take my children out; but, that does not mean that they don't get wet. It rains on the righteous and unrighteous together.

My protection, my hope for you is that I will always provide a way out. I am your rescue and your refuge. My banner covers your head and my mantle covers your back. I love you.

Strong foundation...

My prayer:

I really enjoyed today God. Thank you for the beauty, the fun, the relaxation, and for spending it with me.

Back to work tomorrow and I am betting, another great opportunity for me to find peace in you while the world around me is crazy. Help me to see life and circumstances through your eyes. Help me to see the bigger picture and purpose. And, most of all, help me to love like you love.

What God Said Tonight:

I have built your life on a sound structural base. It is because of that sound structure that you can face the winds of change, you can handle an occasional earthquake shaking.

Your foundation in me stays strong and keeps you from falling over. When the winds blow and the earth shakes, grab hold of your foundation and you will not be brought down.

Healing rest...

My prayer:

I sit here tonight with a choice. I could focus on the several truly horrible and the many rather annoying events of the day. Or, I could focus on the rather sparse but still present blessings.

The choice seems obvious but it is rather hard to make. I should focus on the blessings. I will feel better if I focus on the blessings. But the only thoughts running through my head are related to the things that I cannot imagine calling blessings.

I have not quite made it to Paul's maturity where I count it all blessing. I would like to, but I can't. Well, Mom always said if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all...

What God Said Tonight:

I don't mind silence. It is in the silence that you can best hear my voice. It is in the silence that you can feel my peace most clearly. It is in the silence that the enemy is bound.

I am your God and your Father. I will heal you as you rest. I will show you sweet dreams and hope for the future. You rest and I will bring you out. Let me take this one.

Blue flame...

My prayer:

Thanks for helping me through the rough patches today God. There were quite a few and you brought me through each of them like a champ.

What would I do without you? Thank you that I never have to actually answer that question because you will be with me always. I am yours, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

Blue flame is the hottest fire. It is not the most recognized flame but it is the hottest and spreads the fastest.

It is not always the most well known or most visible that I use to spread my fire. Sometimes I use the unknowns, the unseens, who are burning so hot for me, they are nearly unrecognizable.

I love you blue flame.

Love is the antidote...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I don't want to complain to you. I just am having a hard time tonight dealing with the near constant violence in this world I live in. So much anger, strife, killing, it has left me exhausted.

I know about your peace that passes all understanding and I am so grateful for it. Without it, I would have lost my mind long ago. But, sometimes like tonight, it just gets overwhelming and I don't know what to do but to ask for your help.

What God Said Tonight:

Peace be with you. Peace I bring to you, peace I leave with you. I am the Prince of Peace and in me there is no death.

I know you know these things. I am confirming them for you tonight. You are sheltered in my peace.  Take my peace wherever you go and let it light up the darkness. Let your love shine out so people can see me and see the alternative.

It is easy to get angry and lash out. It takes maturity to get angry and love anyway.

Your probably tired of me saying this but it is true, love conquers all. Love is stronger than hate and stronger than fear. Love is the antidote to the violence of this world. Let your love shine.

Tuesday, July 19, 2016

Expiration date...

My prayer:

Huh, I have nothing to say and nothing really on my mind. That doesn't happen often! Maybe tonight I should just listen...

What God Said Tonight:

There is a time limit. An expiration of sorts. Time is relative and I am the keeper of time but the reality is that time does run out.

I am very close to taking us into the next stage. It is inevitable and it is important. It will move us one step closer to the new heaven and the earth.

I want to take as many children with me as I can You are helping me by being you and showing me to people. I have more love left to give. I have more salvation available. I don't run out, but time will.

Don't let us grieve over brothers and sisters that could have been so easily saved if one person had genuinely shared me with them. Don't let those opportunities pass. Be my light. Help them see me.

Monday, July 18, 2016

Prayers...

My prayer:

Today was bittersweet. I was grateful for the many opportunities to pray for people and intercede and I was sad that I ran into so many people who needed prayer.

Thank you for the peace that you brought to each situation. Thank you for the healing you accomplished. Thank you for preventing what otherwise could have been a very violent situation. Thank you most of all for hearing and responding to my prayers. I am so grateful that I have you for a Father!

What God Said Tonight:

I hear your prayers. All of them. I even hear the prayers that you forgot you prayed.

I have a timing for all things, even my answers to prayer. Don't believe for one second that your prayer is not heard and will not be answered just because you have not heard yet. You have not seen yet.

I value your prayers. I need you to stand for yourself and others in the realm of heaven, declaring what is yours. Declaring what I have provided for you. Stand up and claim your heritage.

I am with you always. I will hear you always. I will love you always.

Sunday, July 17, 2016

TIme with God..,

My prayer:

Thanks for the one on one time today God. It was good to dwell in your presence. It was good to feel your Spirit in me and hear your voice. I need more quiet time with you. I need more time with you, away from the distractions and the horror of this world. I need to find more time. I love you God.

What God Said Tonight:

I have all the time in the world and will give it to you whenever you ask.

I know you feel you need to fill your life with busyness and I don't ever want to discourage you from doing all that you want to do. But in that race to achieve, remember to take time with me.

I will refuel your tank. I will guide your direction. I will give you the peace you need to succeed. I am your strength and I will never let go. I love you daughter.

Friday, July 15, 2016

Made for God...

My prayer:

I am exhausted from a truly wonderful day God. Thank you for every minute of this day. There was productivity, play, joy, laughter, good friends, good food and great weather. I don't think a person can ask for more. Love you!


What God Said Tonight:

I love you and enjoyed our day together too. I love spending time with you, I don't care what we are doing, as long as we are together.

I made you to be with me.

Thursday, July 14, 2016

I am with you...

My prayer:

Today was a good day God. Not because of anything that happened or didn't happen but because I could feel your presence all day and your presence gave me the ability to handle anything that came my way.

It felt good to have that back. It is what I missed yesterday. I am nothing without you. Thank you for choosing me and living in me.

What God Said Tonight:

I am with you, now and forever. It is my promise and commitment to you that I will never leave you. It is vital that you always remember that. There may be times when you are more aware of me and times when you are less aware of me but I do not change.

I am with you now and forever and that will not change. I love you and you are mine. I won't give you up. Go and rest in my presence.

Wednesday, July 13, 2016

All is well...

My prayer:

I am uncomfortable and on edge tonight God and I don't really know why. Something is off. I am off.

God, I pray and ask for your peace and for your will to be fully manifest in my life and in me. Fill me Holy Spirit. Let everything that comes out of me and everything within me be in agreement with you and your will.

I am yours, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

I am in agreement with you I have made a way for us to always be in agreement. The sacrifice of my son allows us continual fellowship. It breaks down every barrier. I removes every hindrance. My son's blood makes it possible for you and I to be together forever.

Lean into the presence of my son and let his sacrifice wash over you. Let his blood renew you. Let my Holy Spirit encourage you. Let me love you.

All is well.

Windy path...

My prayer:

What a day of joy, healing and love! Thank you Jesus! You healed my leg. I could barely lift it yesterday and today, no pain at all. Then, you surround me with people who are generous, kind and make me feel so special. Thank you for this special day God.

What God Said Tonight:

I have you on a bit of a windy path right now. You will get where you need to go but you will not travel in a straight line.

There is purpose in the turns. Take time to enjoy the scenery. Take time to get to know those who are traveling with you in a deeper way. We are going to cover a lot of ground by taking this path.

You might say that is the reason for the serpentine route.

Sunday, July 10, 2016

Protection...

My prayer:

Protection God. That is the word that is just echoing in my mind and my spirit tonight. I pray for your protection over us. Protection from violence, protection from fire, protection from evil and protection from ourselves and the decisions we make out of our pain. Blanket us in your protection.

What God Said Tonight:

I have built a fortress around you. My angels stand guard. My Holy Spirit watches over it all. I have a protection program set up that is infallible and unbreachable.

I will not only watch over you in this life but, when it is time, I have made the provision for you to live forever with me. That everlasting life is your guarantee of my protection.

I will not see you destroyed. Ever.

Complicated mess...

My prayer:

Today was pretty wonderful God. Thank you for every blessed minute. I have been praying and asking for your help for everyone else today. I think tonight I just want to listen.

What God Said Tonight:

Sometimes things that you think are a mess are really just complicated. Just because something is complicated, does not mean there is something wrong. The best things in life can be the result of very complicated preparation.

I have great things for you. Some of them you will see coming. Others, you will see emerge from the complicated "mess" that you thought was an issue to be solved when it was nothing more than the breeding ground for my blessing.

I love you.

The disease of evil...

My prayer:

God, I pray for your peace to blanket our country tonight.

Things have gotten really out of control. I don't understand how killing people became a viable course of action but it seems like every day, we have another mass shooting or other horrific violence.

We need your wisdom and your peace. We need your grace to overwhelm us so our reaction is love and not violence. We need your love, which is stronger than any hate, to heal us.

God, I give you my country and ask for your help.

What God Said Tonight:

I have seen great violence done over the ages. I will see yet more. Violence is a side effect, an outcome of evil living in the world. It is a symptom of the disease of evil.

The symptoms seem to be getting worse because the illness is coming to a head. It is like when you have a fever. Often, right before the fever breaks, you have a spike where your temperature rises a bit more, or at least it feels as though it does. The same is true of this world.

The end (or the beginning depending on how you look at it) is nearly here. For now, know that you are under my protection. Know that I have my children well and strategically placed. Know that no matter how out of control it feels, I will see it work for your good in the end.

We are in a battle but it is a battle that we win.

Hold on tight...

My prayer:

I am resting in your arms and in your love tonight God. My favorite place!

What God Said Tonight:

Strap on and hold tight. We have a bumpy road ahead.

You can choose to be frightened by the ups and downs or you can trust me in the middle of it and enjoy the ride. It is going to be exhilarating if you let yourself enjoy it. It will be terrifying if you don't trust me.

I love you sweet child. Hold on tight.

Living a life of grace...

My prayer:

Awesome God, THANK YOU! You made today go so smoothly. I was dreading returning back to work, worried about what I would find, but you took care of everything! Thank you Jesus!!

And yet, even in my giving thanks to you tonight, my mind strays to the one offense from today. The one thing that did not even bother me at the time but now, as I think about it, I find myself taking offense. Thinking, "She had no right to say that!"

But, that is ridiculous thinking. All it does is take the focus away from all of the blessings you heaped on me today. God, I ask for your help to let go of any offense. I choose to let it go and I ask for your help to not pick it up again. That offense is an enemy to me, to you and to the blessings you provided me and I will not allow it to fester in me. THANK YOU!

What God Said Tonight:

You will soon see the new heaven and the new earth. You will see that it is full of light and free from darkness. You will see that pain and offense do not live there.

The more you can live free of those things now, the more at home you will be in the new heaven and the new earth.

Letting go of an offense is not weakness. It is the strongest and kindest thing you can do. Living a life of grace means giving it as well as receiving it.

I love you sweet child. Go, in my grace.

Monday, July 4, 2016

When...

My prayer:

I just want to hear your voice.

What God Said Tonight:

I haven't done all that I need to do in you yet. I still have hurts to heal. I still have dreams to realize. I have much yet to do in you and for you.

I have not waited out of punishment. I have waited for the right time. I have waited for everything to be in proper alignment to ensure the best possible results.

I am the God of the universe and I can see the end from the beginning. You will look back on this night and realize that it was not a matter of "if" it was only a matter of "when". Your "when" is coming soon. I have great things yet for you.

Sunday, July 3, 2016

Purpose...

My prayer:

I have so many thoughts running through my head tonight God that I don't know which ones to talk with you about.  Life is this odd combination of peace, joy, revelation with an underlying concern that I am missing something in the whole process.

Trusting you with my life is the easiest and hardest thing I have ever done. Easy because you are so trustworthy and when I can truly trust, my life floats along in a stream of opportunities and blessings. Hard because, well, I am not sure why. There is no logical reason for it to be hard. You always come through for me. I guess it is just that it seems crazy sometimes. I know I don't deserve all that you do for me and that makes me think it will all go away some day.

What God Said Tonight:

I have yet to see the child of mine who lives free of all doubt. You are surrounded by a world that works very hard to convince you that you cannot trust me. That I do not exist or if I do, I am irrelevant. Your enemy, my enemy has worked very hard for many millennium to make this so.

I have you in this world for a purpose. Not so that you live in it and are adapted to it but so that you stand apart in it and show the truth. Show the truth of my love for you. Show the truth of my blessing. I have you here so that those who are adapted to the world can see what life can be like.

Hang on tightly to me. Let my presence remove all doubt. Let my record confirm for you your trust in me. I am with you now and forever.

Saturday, July 2, 2016

Perfect peace...

My prayer:

I am at peace and content God. Not that everything is perfect. Life continues to throw challenges at me all the time. But for now, in this moment, I am at peace and content.

Living life with you allows for these moments of perfect peace. Nothing missing and nothing lacking. That is something that only comes from knowing you. The world doesn't provide it, I checked.

Thank you for your peace that passes all understanding. Thank you that I don't have to wait for life to be perfect before I get to experience perfect contentment. You are amazing.

What God Said Tonight:

You are in my arms. There is a place where there is perfect safety, perfect peace, perfect redemption and you will find it in my arms.

You fall down, I pick you up. You can't get into to someplace, I will lift you up. I will take you where you need to go and I will plant and water you in that place to be blessed.

I love you and you are mine now and forever.

Friday, July 1, 2016

Decisions...

My prayer:

Awesome God. It seems like there has been a lot of confusion about opportunities lately. Which opportunities should we go after and which ones should we leave alone. Then there are the opportunities that we think you put in our path but when we follow them, they fall apart.

God, I am always asking for your guidance and wisdom but it seems like me and those close to me are in a bit of a greater need than usual. Help us to see what you have for us and what is better left alone. Guide us clearly to those things that are for our best good and that are for the best good of you and your Kingdom.

Thank you!

What God Said Tonight:

I am a lighthouse in the dark. I never intend to leave you in the wilderness without a guide. I am in you and I will always guide you.

Your path is wider than you think. There are some opportunities, some decisions that are truly completely up to you. If you follow it, I will bless it. If you do not and choose something else, I will bless that.

I can tell you, when you have a decision and you have sought me for guidance and I am silent, it is often because the decision is yours and I can make any decision you make work for your good.

I will guide you when I need you someplace for a specific reason. For those things, I will make it very clear and it will be easy for you to follow. For the rest of the time, make the choices that seem best for you, the ones that follow your heart and your soul. I will work out the results for your good.

I love you and I will see you in your promised land.
