Every need met...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God, I have no idea what to pray tonight. Maybe tonight is more about listening than it is about talking?

What God Said Tonight:

Healing is yours. Salvation is  yours. They joy of the Lord is yours. Peace that goes beyond the ability to understand it, is yours. You have everything you need and more. 

In recognizing that, in recognizing my promises over your life, there is no need to worry or wonder because there is no need. I will fulfill all of your needs through my riches in glory. 

My promises are true. My promises are truth itself. Receive them and you will never need for anything again. I love you my daughter, now and forever.

Love and Peace...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father, it is nearly the time when we celebrate your Son's birthday here on earth. Every year, I ask what you would like for gift this year. I haven't asked yet. What do you want for Christmas?

What God Said Tonight:

I want peace. Pray for peace this Christmas. Pray for the peace that comes from love. The peace that is the natural result of people truly loving each other. 

Love a little more this Christmas. Pray for the peace that comes from that love. You are my precious child and I am yours forever.

Mercy...

 

My prayer:

Heavenly Father, I pray tonight for mercy. In the name of Yeshua/Jesus, the Christ Messiah, I pray for mercy for your children here on earth. We give you all the glory, honor, and praise.

What God Said Tonight:

Mercy is a direct outcome of my tremendous love for you my child. I pour out my mercy daily. But I hear your request and I know the circumstances for which you are asking. 

It is not always a mercy to delay hard things. It is not always a mercy to keep someone from harm. There are times when the kindest and right thing to do is to allow someone to go through something that will teach them something so very important for their future, their eternity with me. 

Those who already easily trust and give their lives and hearts to me without reservation, those people may have an easier time; but, troubles come to everyone and it is in the trouble and in the mourning that hearts are laid bare and are most open to receiving the saving power of my death and resurrection. 

Saved...

 

My prayer:

Mighty God. I pray that your will is done, on earth as it is in heaven. I pray your perfect will be done. I trust your will. I know that your will is the best choice for me, for the world, for eternity. 

I love you so much Lord and I fully understand that your love for me is greater than I can imagine. It is from that love that my trust becomes so complete. It is easy to pray, 'not my will but your will,' because I know without a shadow of a doubt that your will is the better choice. Every time. 

I love you sweet Lord and I can't wait to see what you have for us next. 

What God Said Tonight:

It is no secret. My will is pretty straightforward and I wrote it down for the world to read and understand. Now, there is the piece of it that I describe where some may have a veil or scales on their eyes. They cannot see what is plainly in front of them. Those scales will fall and they will have the opportunity to see and know the truth. 

It is my will that all would come to me and be saved. 

I love you my child and your life is in my will and forever will be. 

How to love...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. I come to you in the name of Jesus, the Christ Messiah and I need some help with love. It is the commandment of the new covenant, to love you and to love others as I do myself. More specifically, you have told me that is my ministry, to love those you have put in my life. Something that is so easy to say but at times, so difficult to do. 

You are love. To love perfectly comes so naturally to you. I have a harder time. Love in this world has been pretty beat up and mishandled. Is it more loving to tell someone they are wonderful when the truth is that they have some things that really have to change if they are going to be successful. Or is it more loving to help them understand, in a loving way, what they can do differently. Am I loving my fellow man when I help them with something that is difficult for them or am I actually hurting them by taking away the opportunity for them to learn and grow. Or, does motivation really determine it all. If my true motivation is love and I make decisions out of that love, is that the best love I can give?

I ask for your help to love better.

What God Said Tonight:

Love, human love, is not perfect. the only perfect love is from me. Human love, the love you are capable of on your own, is flawed and has to be given out with equal measures of love and grace. 

Motivation does matter. If your heart is right and your intentions are right, that often leads to the right actions of love. If those intentions are wrong or are not out of love, then there is very little possibility that the outcome will be good, that the outcome will be love. I may even say it is impossible. 

When I ask you to love those around you, I am asking more than anything, to reflect the love that I have shown you. The closer you can get to that reflection, the closer you get to perfect love. 

When faced with a decision, first check your heart. Are your intentions right? Is your intention to love that person? If so, consider situations in your life where you have been faced with the same issue. How did I handle that situation with you? Reflect that love and grace that I showed you. 

It isn't always easy but it gets easier every time you do it. I love you my child, now and forever.

Trust...

 

My prayer:

It is hard for me to know what to pray about tonight God. This week has such potential to be really challenging, but it might all turn out just fine. And then, as we saw last week, there could be major life changing things that happen with no warning at all.

It really comes down to, I need you, every minute of every day. I pray that your perfect will is done, in everything. If those two things happen, I have literally nothing to worry about.

I love you Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

Knowing what is coming next can bring some level of comfort . However, how much more comfort to know that whatever comes next, I will help out through it. That is the true point of this life. If you can get to a point that you know with every part of you that I will help you with everything. That I will never let you down and I will never make you go it alone. If you can fully believe that, nothing cannot scare you and nothing can worry you. 

Live this life of peace I am offering you. 

Trust that I love you. Trust that I will never leave you. Trust that I will always help you. 

Waiting, again...

 

My prayer:

I feel like I am in a bit of a waiting zone God. With your amazing direction and guidance, I finally have a path to a solution, which is amazing! But, I have to wait. I am dependent on others to take the next steps and move forward through the solutions. Funny, they don't seem in quite the same hurry as I am for the solution (sorry for the sarcasm God, you know me and my defense mechanisms). 

It is really rotten to know something is wrong but not know what it is and what to do about it. Almost as difficult is to know what is wrong and what needs to be done about it but not be able to do it...yet. Patience has never been a great strength of mine.

So, as always God, I pray for your help. I pray for the patience I need to see this through. I pray for favor with you and with people to get it all done. I pray, above all of it, that your will is accomplished.

Thank you Lord!

What God Said Tonight:

I am going to ask you to take a minute tonight and think about all of the times that I have shown up in your life to take care of things. I also want you to think of how often there was a waiting period. Now, one more, remember how hard the waiting was during the waiting and remember how quickly that waiting anxiety flew away as soon as the resolution came. 

I promise you, you will not wait longer than is needed. I promise you that you will not wait longer than I have in my plan for my will in your life. I also promise you that once it is resolved, and you see the perfect timing, all of these anxious hours will disappear. Just as they always do. 

I love you my child, now and forever. This time is nearly done.

Impossible things...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Lord. Thank you for this time of rest and rejuvenation. I needed it. It was so good to get so many loose ends wrapped up last week. Walking into this week feels like a fresh start. 

That being said, I need you more than ever. Each day of my life I recognize a little bit more, just how much I need you. It is funny, we think of growing up and becoming an adult as a process of growing more independent. However, for me, I started out pretty independent and my life has been one long lesson in learning how to depend on you. 

I love you Lord. I depend on you for the very breath that I breathe each day. I am yours, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

Tomorrow brings both blessings and challenges that you cannot imagine today. That is why you will always need me. 

I have created you with so many talents and gifts and I fully expect you to use every one of them. But, I also created you to need that relationship, need that help from others, even from me, so that your achievements could be greater than what you could ever accomplish on your own.

One person can do great things. More than one person, working together, can do impossible things. I love you my child

Tomorrow's praise reports...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Lord. My mind is all over the place tonight. 

I am grateful for the rest and the peace you gave me this weekend. I truly feel recharged. 

I am excited about this potential new opportunity, but it also scares me a bit. I continue to pray that you guide me in this decision and that if this opportunity is not your will for me that you slam the doors shut. Please make it really clear to me if I should walk into the opportunity or if I should walk away. 

I continue with these weird health issues but I know that it is by your stripes that I am healed and I am trusting in you to bring me through it all. If I am missing something, if you have already told me what to do, please, tell me again. I missed it and I am floundering a bit. 

And, for the last zag of this zig-zag prayer, thank you a million times over for this life you have given me. Despite any challenges, I wake up each day in paradise with people around me who I love and who love me, food on the table, a roof over my head, a dog that is a better reflection of your love than I could ever be, and so much more. 

You are SO GOOD to me Lord, and I remain so grateful.

What God Said Tonight:

Let the worries melt away. Remember who I am and what I do for you my child. 

The challenges of today are nothing more than the praise reports of tomorrow. I am in you and in our life and my will is always before you. If you are prayerful, if you ask me, I will always let you know which path, which decision, is my will for you. 

I will say that sometimes it truly does not matter. There are decisions in your life that you could choose one of many choices, all of which can work with in my will. Life will look different with each choice but in each, I can see my will established. 

This next opportunity is not a black or white decision. I have shades of gray at times. You make the choice, I will bring it to my will. My will, my purpose in your life, can be fulfilled in either path. 

I love you sweet child, now and forever.

Leaning into peace...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. I remain in awe of  you. Thank you for your miracle protection this week. I don't know what this next week has in store but I know you will take care of it. 

Each day holds so many unknowns right now but somehow, your peace is still the main thing that I experience. Between the health challenges, the work challenges, the grieving, and the other million challenges of every day, I look at it and think, wow, I should be freaking out a little. However, because of who you are and all that you have promised and shown me, I instead look at it all and feel your peace. I hold on firmly to the absolute knowledge that you are in charge and that you have my best interest always. 

Every once in a while, I hear a whisper that says, "Yeah, but what if God isn't there any more. What if He walks away." And in that moment, I am fully terrified, until I remember what you always tell me, you will never leave me and never forsake me. 

My God doesn't lie and My God says he won't leave me. Ahhhh, there's the peace again! I love you LORD!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I am here. I am always here for you my child. You have said it, I will NEVER leave you, and when I say "never" it truly means never. 

You are the apple of my eye and I have invested too much in you, in my children to ever turn my back on you. We are in this together and that is how it will be for eternity. 

You made that choice when you chose to walk the path of my will. When you accepted my Lordship in your life and received the salvation I provided. In that choice, so many things happened but one of those things is that we were bonded together forever. 

I love you my children and keep leaning into my peace. It is there for just that purpose. 

 

My prayer:

Feeling grateful and at peace tonight Lord. Not because of anything that is or is not going on in life, but really, just sitting in that place of peace that you have created for me. 

I love this spot. I love this spot of assurance that you are in charge and that I am your child. I can make what ever decisions I want but I choose you, every time God, I want to choose you and your will. 

There are a ridiculous amount of choices in tie world but I have learned that the only choice that does not come back to haunt me are the ones where I start with, "God, your will be done..." That is the only choice that really matters.

What God Said Tonight:

There is little difference between following my will and following me, but there is a difference. If you are a follower  of me, your heart is changed. We share a spirit. 

When you abide in me, when we are aligned then where your heart leads you is most often also where I am I am going. What we do when we get there is where you should listen the most carefully.

I love you more than you will ever know,

Yesterday...

 

My prayer:

I feel like I am praying the same prayer every week and every day right now. There is so much craziness that is outside of my control, more than ever and I can hear your voice even before I finish the sentence. You are in control. I don't have to be in control and, in truth, when I try to be in control I do nothing but mess things up further. 

So, as you do so often God, you have answered my prayer before I have prayed it tonight. I will continue to pray that your will is done. I will continue to trust you. I will lay every worry at your feet.

I pray that your strength, your peace, and your salvation rest in me as I abide in you Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

It's not that you don't know. You know that I am in charge and I won't let you down. But that is the nature of this world and the challenges it sends your way. Each new challenge seem insurmountable. Each new attack seems that it cannot be defeated. 

But, you know, from your history, that every challenge I will meet and every battle I will win. I am your Lord and you can count on me, every time. 

It is why I tell you so often to make a memorial. Do something to remember what I did for you yesterday to help you to have the faith for what I will do today. 

I love you my child and I will not let you down. This is the beginning, not the end. 

God is in charge...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I need you. In so many different ways right now, I need you. I need to you to take over my health and to make me well. I need you to help me to love the way you have asked me to love. I need you to give me the strength to go on, when I run out (which is more often than ever right now). I just need your help God. 

What God Said Tonight:

There is little to no need at this time to move anything faster As chaotic as it may seem right now, it is nothing more than the dust settling from the last battle.

Trust me. Trust that I am sovereign. Trust that my will shall be accomplished. 

I love you my child, now and forever.,

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       

Faith opens windows...

 

My prayer:

Your will is a crazy and wonderful thing God. Thank you for taking care of the mess of last week. You turned things for our good in ways that none of us could have predicted. Thank you for tonight and all that you showed and taught us. 

My solid and constant prayer God, is to pray that your will is done, in all things and at all times. That is my deepest need and desire. I love you now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

I show you things sometimes, not because you need to know but I show you because you don't actually need to know. I show you because you trust me with your future, before I show you anything. 

It is that trust and that faith that makes it easy for me to share with you wheat I have coming up next for you. When I can know that you will allow my will to be accomplished in your life, I don't have to keep it to myself. 

I sometimes still will. Sometimes, the surprise of it still brings such joy that telling you ahead would rob you of the richness of the experience. 

Just know that it is your faith that opens the windows on your tomorrow. 

I love you child now and forever more.

Celebration...

 

My prayer:

You taught me so much this week Lord. I am exhausted by it all, but so grateful as well. Thank you for the clear reminder as to whose approval I need to pay attention to and whose I do not. Thank you for taking care of my friend, giving her hope and a future. Thank you for your help in responding to the attacks. SO much this week God.

I pray, as always and above everything else, that your will is done this week. There is so much potential, both for good and for disaster, within this week. I leave it all in your hands God that your will is done. I pray that you guide me to anything you want me to do, or learn, this week. 

I am yours, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

Get out the bunting and the celebration. There is a time that is coming when you will have no choice but to celebrate. A time is coming when you will see the truth of all I have said and taught to you and you will be overwhelmed with joy and celebration. It is a time that is nearly here. You can be excited for it now because it is that close. 

Jehovah Jireh...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for this down time this weekend God. The week was intense and next week looks like it could be even worse. I am grateful that I do not have to face it alone. I am grateful that you are with me, at all times and in all things. I pray for your help to do the hard things, in love. I pray that you take care of your children and guide them to the future you have for them. I thank you God that you are our provision, our provider, and we do not have to be afraid or wonder where our food or clothing or shelter will come from. It comes from you. 

My life is yours, now and forever, Jehovah, Yeshua, Holy Spirit.

What God Said Tonight:

Nothing is impossible with me. Remember that. What you dread happening, may not happen. What you fear happening to your brother and sister in Christ is not the end of any story. I am the Great I AM and in that, I can literally do anything. Wait and see what I will do in this case. 

My blessings are not on hold and they have not been depleted. My blessings, for my people are stored up in heaven and cannot be lessened. The blessing from God is one that is replenished immediately upon being sent you. We have no shortage here. 

Let everyone you know who is afraid that their finances are not enough. Remind them of the loaves and fishes. Remind them of my sovereign rule. I am God of all and I will not let my children starve. I will provide.

Child of the most high God...

 

My prayer:

A week of challenges and new information God. Thank you for bringing me through it all and thank you for your will being accomplished in my life. That is truly my one prayer, your will be accomplished in me and in my life. I love you God, more than I know how to express. I trust wholly in you. I am yours, now and forever sweet Joshua;Jesus, Jehovah.

What God Said Tonight:

There is no man on earth or in heaven who can boast if a power greater than me I will see my will be accomplished on this earth. 

Hold your banner high, Let the world know, you are are the child of the most high God. I will not forsake you or leave you behind, ever. I will always protect you, keep you healthy safe and whole. 

You are my child and my love for you shall not end.

Spiritual war...

My prayer:

What a week Father. Thank you for all of the amazing insight. Thank you for reminding me that my security is in you and you alone. Forgive me Father for losing track of that, even for a minute. I love you and I am grateful for all that you do for me and in me. I pray above everything else God that your will is done. Your perfect will is better than anything I can think of or ask for. Guide me in that will for the sake of you and your Kingdom. I am yours God, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

There is a war in the spiritual realm that you cannot see but you sometimes sense. It is a war for the souls It is the only war that will matter in the end. 

The winner of this war will reign forever. The loser in this war will rot away in hell until hell is no longer enough. He will be crushed and there will be no trace of him left. 

I am fighting this war, I am winning this war, and in the end you will see victory with me and my people. 

In war, it can be hard to see for certain who had the upper hand. There can be several events that may happen in succession and the enemy thinks he has done something important, but he hasn't. He cannot win this war, it is already finished,

Wreck...

 

My prayer:

I am not sure how to say thank you for this week Lord. The car accident was pretty horrible but thank you that no one was hurt. Thank you that I wasn't hurt. Thank you that the truck was not so damaged that I couldn't get it home but damaged enough that I can't drive it right now. Thank you for the time to take this seriously and do all that I can to be sure it doesn't happen again.

I am sorry that I didn't understand what you were trying to tell me earlier. I am sorry that I was arrogant enough to think that I had it all under control on my own. I will find ways to do better moving forward. 

Thank you for your loving mercy and forgiveness Lord. I am yours, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

Sometimes, I don't have the time, or more accurately, you don't have the time, for me to wait for you to figure things out on your own. Sometimes, I have to allow the consequences of your actions to come through, a bit. 

I am still your Father, and I love you, and I never would allow anything that wasn't necessary or needed for your good. This is something I needed you to understand quickly, before it became a larger issue. It is something that I was telling you about but you were not doing anything about it. 

I will help the emotional scars of this event but I want you to never forget the seriousness of the vision. That is a memory that will serve you well in your decisions in the future. I love you my child, now and forever.

Kingdom opportunities...

 

My prayer:

Amazing Father. Thank you for another week filled with your glory, peace, and love. Thank you for having an answer to every struggle and challenge that presented itself. Thank you for your healing power for every sickness and injury that came into my life. Thank you for being the answer to every question, even those that have not yet been asked.

I love you. I love living life with you. I am eternally grateful for you.

What God Said Tonight:

Ever;thing and everyone has a purpose and place in the Kingdom. It is good when that purpose and place is to advance the Kingdom. Everything that advances the Kingdom is good and right. Everything that does not advance the Kingdom is not worth the smoke that it leaves behind. 

I can provide you opportunities in the Kingdom in nearly every situation but you must keep your eyes, your ears, and your spirit open to detect them and to know what to do with them. 

I love you daughter and every day with you is one that I celebrate. Let's find more to celebrate with.

God's will...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. Each day I am more and more convinced that my only true prayer and my only true wish is that your will is done in everything. Your will, which is greater and grander than anything I can imagine. Your will that is better for me than what I can imagine for myself. Your will that takes into account the full Kingdom of God, not just one life and one person, but which also ensures that the one person has every need fulfilled and is blessed to overflowing. That is it God. I pray for your will to be done, in all things, everywhere. As a disciple of the Christ Messiah, AMEN.

What God Said Tonight:

I hear you and my will is established.

Seasons of life....

 

My prayer:

Thank you for an amazing week of rest God. I loved it, almost too much! I know you have told me that it is not time yet for retirement but weeks like today make it seem really attractive. Thank you for the time to get the projects done, the time to go on some adventures, and the time to rest. 

I also thank you for the wisdom you gave me this week. There were some fundamental things that I know, but somehow had stopped relying on those truths and therefore was not relying on you. Thank you for pointing it out God and I have turned from that and back to full faith in you, for all things. 

I pray and ask for your help tomorrow going back into the work week. I don't know what all is waiting for me but I am certain, I will need you, your wisdom, your peace, your guidance, and your favor to get through it all.

You are my Lord and I am so grateful for you!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

Life has seasons and cycles. All of them are important and all have different purposes . You have just come through a short season of rest and will walk back into a season of work and purpose. Both have their place and their importance. One would not be more or less if the other did not exists but each help to appreciate the other. 

Recognize the cycles and seasons of your life and you can find your full contentment in each. I love you daughter and I am with you always. 

Resting...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father, thank you for this weekend and the joy and the rest you have given me. I pray, in this next week, that you help me find the peace and restoration that has been missing a bit. I pray above all things that your will is done. Guide me, direct me, help me to see what you have for my life. I love you Lord, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

There is nothing t do this week that cannot wait. I have you slowed down, carefully, for a time of rest and that time is now. I will always speak to you. I will always guide you. But this week is about resting in my spirit. 

Through faith...

 

My prayer:

When I look to last week's prayer and see all that you have done in 7 days time...I am in awe. You are incredible. You can take a situation that seems hopeless and turn it around to where I can barely remember the struggle. I can barely remember why I was so worried. 

Thank you for always finding a way through for me God. Thank you for always having the answer. I love you and I love being your daughter.

What God Said Tonight:

Today is not the end of your struggles and challenges. This world will find new ways, or more likely old ways repeated, to try to tear you down. It is a natural result of being my child. 

I cannot keep those challenges from you but I can and will always provide you a way through them. You can count on that one thing. I will always guide you through them and we will always win in the end. 

I know you would often rather not go through it at all. To live a life in perfect peace with no strife. But that is not how this world is made. I can offer you that perfect peace but it is through faith in me. It is through faith that I will never leave you. It is through faith that I will always have the answer. It is through faith that I, that we, will always win. 

That is where you will find peace in this world. 

I love you my sweet daughter. Rest in your faith.

Next level...

 

My prayer:

Awesome healer. I find myself back in the same challenge, the same struggle, again. And again, I have no answers. What is this? Why does the pain keep returning? What should I do, not do? All I know to do is to leave it in your hands and listen for your voice. I pray for your help Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

Is this the same? Is this the same struggle and the same challenge or is this actually the next level and the next step in this journey that I have set for you. I hate that you are in pain but I do love that this has taught you the ultimate reflex that will protect and serve you in every situation. 

When this hits, you turn to me. You still try to figure it out but you first turn to me. It was not so long ago that you spent hours, days, weeks, months trying to figure it out and when all else failed you came to me. That has reversed and now, you first come to me. 

That is good. That is progress. That shows that we are not back where we began but we are at a new level and the knowledge and wisdom for this step are yet to be discovered. 

I love you my child, now and forever. Do not give up or give in. We will make it through together.

Restoration or brand new?

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father, thank you for the time to rest today. 

I pray God that your will is done in all things. I pray that your perfect will is accomplished today and forever. I pray that anything that is not within your will, not in alignment with your will, that it is stopped and not allowed to be, any more. I pray your will for my life, my family, my home, my town, my state, my country, my world and everything beyond this world. I pray your will is done. 

As a disciple of Christ, I pray. Thank you Lord

What God Said Tonight:

The place that use to be green and lush is now brown and barren. There are the remnants of the old grass, but there is nothing truly left of it. It is not even a shadow of what it was before. 

I am the God of restoration and I can restore this for you if you want it. Or, I can keep us moving forward to the new earth and the new heaven where so many things that worry you now don't even exist there. 

I have gone to prepare you a place and it is nearly ready, but not quite. 

Building with my Father...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. Happy Father's Day!!! To the one and only Holy Father of all mankind and to my Lord and Father, thank you for all that you do for me and with me. Thank you for your protection, your wisdom, your direction, your healing and your salvation. Thank you for choosing me and for loving me. You are everything to me Father and I love you more than I can express.

What God Said Tonight:

We are building a new life and a new world together my child. There is so much more to do and to see. We have only just begun. Let us walk into this future hand in hand and I will show you such great things. 

A well constructed building can last for centuries and beyond. A building constructed by me can last forever. Let's build the best world possible that will last for eternity. 

I love you my child and I am with you now and always.

Hope...

 

My prayer:

Amazing Father. Thank you for bringing me through the pain and the challenge. To have several days in a row now without the constant pain has been truly wonderful. Thank you for getting me through that season. I pray your will be done in all things my Lord, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

There is little doubt that this life brings with it times of pain and hardship. I know what those seasons are like. There can be no other reaction to that pain but hope. Any other response brings more pain and more destruction. Hope is the one thing that can stand in the face of any circumstance as long as the core of the hope, the thing you have hope in, is bigger and stronger than the pain and hardship that you face. 

I am God almighty. There is no one and no thing greater than I am. There is no challenge that is greater than I am. There is no pain that is greater than I am. I am your hope, now and forever. I will see you through, every time. You are my children and I will not abandon you, now or ever. 

I love you more than you can ever know or understand. You are mine and I love you.

Battle call...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for today. I am almost afraid to say it or even think it but I feel like we might be coming through to the other side of this struggle and pain. I pray, if that is your will, that it is true. This has been a rough season. I pray that you help me to see and understand everything that you would want me to learn from this season. I don't ever want to go through this one again if I can help it. I love you Lord. Thank you for your help, your strength, your wisdom, and your will in my life. I am yours, now and forever God.

What God Said Tonight:

You are headed for the finish line and you are aimed directly at the center of the target. I have not left you and I have not ever expected you to endure this on your own. 

I am with you in every battle and every victory. I am your coach and your cheerleader. I will see you victorious every single time. Sometimes the battle call is to fight and sometimes it is to surrender, but whatever the call, keep your eyes and ears on me and I will lead you to the victory. 

I love you my child, now and forever.

Other side of pain...

 

My prayer:

Heavenly Father. I am resting tonight in your goodness and your blessings. I am not ignoring the challenges and the pain but sitting next to your goodness and blessings, they just don't matter too much. You are such a GOOD God. I am so grateful that I get to be your child. I pray for your continued guidance, healing, love, and peace for me and for all of your children.

What God Said Tonight:

There are so many in the world tonight who cannot see the joy for the pain. They cannot see through the circumstance of today to the glory of tomorrow. The pain is blocking their vision. 

I have yet to see the circumstance that can keep me from bringing my glory. There is no pain greater than my healing. There is no challenge greater than my strength. There is no sin greater than my love to forgive it. 

I will see you through every single one. I love you my daughter and you will see the other side of this pain with me.

Seek the truth...

 

My prayer:

What an amazing life you have given me Lord. Thank you for bringing me through every struggle of the week. Thank you for the rest and celebration of this weekend. Thank you for all that you are healing in me. I am grateful and I am anxious to see what you have for us this week.

What God Said Tonight:

Seek the truth in your heart tonight. Look within yourself and find the truth of where you are and where  you need to be. I am here, loving you, choosing you. 

Go, now and seek the truth within yourself of who you are and who you want to be. Search your heart and find those areas that are not  edifying and do not further my Kingdom and throw them out. Don't wait for approval or guidance if you already know.

I love you, just as you are. But I also know your potential and I love that potential as well.

The opposite...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for all of your help throughout the week last week God. You blessed me in new ways every day. You are so good to me and I am so grateful! We had our challenges too. I am not forgetting those. But the challenges make the blessings even sweeter.

I am anxious to hear your voice tonight God.

What God Said Tonight:

Light in the darkness and peace in the chaos. I am what you need and often the opposite of what you are experiencing. 

I am your antivenom when you are bitten by the evil of this world. I am the cure to your illness. I am the solution to every problem. 

Reach out to me. Ask me for you help. You will not be disappointed. I love you now and forever.

Hindsight...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for the rest this weekend Lord. I guess I must have needed it. You know what tomorrow will bring much more than I do. I pray for your will to be acdomplished, on earth as it is in heaven. I pray for your perfect will in my life. I choose you, today and every day Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

The challenge of today and of tomorrow seems overwhelming It seems like more than you can face. But it is no more overwhelming that the challenge of yesterday that we faced and conquered and in hindsight, seems like nothing. 

This challenge, in hindsight, will look like nothing too. It seems hard, because it has been around for so long but that only means we are that much closer to your victory. Do not lose hope. Do not lose faith. I will see you through this, as I have every other challenge. 

I love you and I have a plan on your life that has not been moved or forgotten. I love you my child, now and forever.

Receive...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for an amazing week God. Your provision on my life, the way you provide for me, is miraculous. Every victory is yours God. It is clearly you working in my life and I am so grateful!

Thank you for hearing my prayers from earlier tonight for those who I have not seen. I pray that while I might be absent from their lives for a while, I know you never are. I pray that your presence be tangible to them tonight God. Blanket them in your peace and love so there is no doubt in their spirit or soul that you are God and that you love them.

What God Said Tonight:

My arms are open and filled with gifts for you. You can receive them all or you can choose those that you think you deserve. 

I love you with a love that knows no bounds. My gifts are a result of that love. My gifts are not a result of what you have done. Your deeds and your acts, no matter how good, could not warrant the very least of my gifts for you. 

Receive all I have for  you. Do not limit the gift by refusing to receive it. Open your arms wide and receive. It is a glory to me and a great joy. 

I love you now and forever my child.

Victory...

 

My prayer:

A beautiful day and a victorious week Lord. Thank you for defending your people. Thank you for showing me a path forward free from the pain and attacks. Thank you for the peace and hope that you provide, every day. I am grateful to be your disciple and your child. 

What God Said Tonight:

Victory is a short lived moment but a chain of victories can increase you confidence. It can make you believe that you can be victorious. 

With me, every battle is the chance for victory. I will see you victorious in every situation. Eventually, you will trust that. Every victory builds that trust. 

If you can just remember that it is not you fighting the battle it is me and that I can't lose because I have already won the war, if you can truly learn and believe that, you will never worry about losing or being crushed by your enemy again. 

The enemy will keep fighting. It is all he has left. But he cannot win. The end is already determined. Please remember. It is my battle and it is a battle I have already won. You can claim that victory, even before you see it. 

I love you my child. Now and forever.

Broken chains...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. Thank you for everything you are teaching me right now. This has been a tremendous time of learning and growing like I have not experienced in a while. I know I have more to learn because the challenges keep coming, but I also know that you are in it with me and leading me, guiding me and teaching me, so I can't lose. 

Love you SO MUCH LORD!!!

What God Said Tonight:

There are some chains that have been binding you, keeping you back in some areas of your life. It is time to break those off. 

These chains are broken in prayer and wisdom. These chains are broken as a result of you knowing the authority you have. This time is growing that confidence in the authority I have given you. It won't take long. 

I love you my child. Now and forever.

Reality of life with God...

 

My prayer:

You have risen! That is the point of the celebration today. We get to celebrate together that you gave your life, fought Satan and hell, won, rose again, and now have redeemed us, your children. That is really too much to comprehend. I was raised with the knowledge of it so I think I somewhat take it for granted. But if I take the time to stop and truly consider it all, it is unbelievable.

Thank you for loving us enough to sacrifice so much, just so we could be saved. There will never be enough words, enough gratitude, enough thankfulness to merit all that you have done. 

You are my everything Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

I choose you, my child and now that you choose me, I am able to pour out  on you blessings to overflow. I am able to teach you when you have an ear to hear. I am able to speak to you when you quiet yourself to listen. 

The opportunity for our relationship was made on that fateful day when the old covenant was fulfilled and the new covenant went into effect. However, the reality of life together requires more than just the opportunity. It requires the effort. 

It requires that you reach out, that you receive, that you listen, and that you take time for our relationship to grow and develop. I will meet you every time. Every time you want to talk, you want me to listen, you want to learn, every time, I will be there. But don't forget to take that step. Don't forget to make the time. 

I will not force you, ever. Which means I need you to reach out first.

A beautiful life...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for a wonderful day of rest Lord. What a privilege and blessing it is to have a full day of rest every week. I loved our walk together this morning. I have to make more time for that. I have gotten lazy. 

We are walking into a new week and I have no idea what it will bring but I also have full confidence that you will face whatever it is with me, you will guide me and you will help me. So, I have no worries tonight and I simply pray that your will is done, in all things.

I love you Lord, now and forever. I choose you and your way for my life.

What God Said Tonight:

Life is a kaleidoscope of images and things coming together. Each piece is important and beautiful on its own, but when seen together as  a whole, that is when the beauty really comes out. 

I have designed and planned for your life to be beautiful. I am grateful that most days, you follow that plan and get to see the things that I have planned for you. Some days, you make choices that veer you away from my plan, but even in that, your choice to return to my will can be more beautiful and more powerful than the original plan was in the first place. 

I love you my child and I will continue to find those ways to bless you in this beautiful life.

So much light...

 

My prayer:

Holy Father. Thank you for the extra protection this week. Thank you for all of the answered prayers this week. This week has been a great reminder that prayer matters and that when we ask you, you are always there to help and listen. 

I pray as we go into this new week Lord, that you show us everything you want us to see and help us to do and be what you would want us to be. God, I pray your will is done above all things, knowing that your will is ALWAYS the best. 

I trust you, I rely on you, I love you and I am fully yours.

What God Said Tonight:

There is so much light. There is darkness now too, but in that darkness, there is so much light. The hope of tomorrow is so much greater than the worry or concern of tomorrow. 

I am your hope and I am above all things. I am the Lord God. Everything that is came from me. There is no love, truth, or hope without me. With me, all things are possible. I am your hope for tomorrow and your peace for today. 

I love you more than you will ever be able to know or understand but know that I will never let you down and I will never leave you. Every moment of every day for the rest of eternity, I am with you. I love you now and forever my child.

Ash...

 

My prayer:

What a difference a week, or even a day makes when you are in charge God. THANK YOU for healing me. Thank you for directing me. Thank you for pulling me from that place of darkness I was in last week. 

It seems like a lifetime ago. But you have that ability, to wipe away the most painful experiences and replace them with joy and hope. You are the God of hope and the God of tomorrows. You are my God and I am grateful for it. 

I choose you, now and forever. Thank you for choosing me.

What God Said Tonight:

We consumed your pain with fire. When something is consumed with fire, it does not make the thing disappear but it leaves an ash. That ash then becomes the ground for new growth. That is true of you this week my child. 

I have burned away the pain, but it has not completely disappeared. It has become the ash that will grow new things in your life and in the Kingdom. Never will you suffer without me finding good use of it. We will use this ash to fertilize the next season. 

I love you know and forever.

Heal the pain...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. I have run into my old nemesis today, or for the last few days. The pain is too much. I need you. I need your healing power. I have nothing left to fight this except to cry out to you. 

What God Said Tonight:

The root and the reason for the pain is deep and complicated. It is not for no reason. 

I will reveal those roots and reasons as soon as you need to know them. Knowing them now would not help. In the meantime, I hear you crying out. I feel your pain. I will heal you, heal that pain, as soon as I possibly can. 

I love you daughter and I would never have you take on more than you can bear. 

Roots...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. Thank you for the wonderful time of rest and worship. I pray, as we go into this new week that your will is done, in everything. I pray that you give me the wisdom to get out of your way so you can do your thing and the wisdom to act when you want me to act. Let me hear your voice, tonight and always. Be my guide, my teacher, my father, my brother, and my savior God. You are my everything.

What God Said Tonight:

Not every root will grow into a plant. Some roots will wither and die before they can become what they are meant to become. 

When that root is an evil root, this is good news. When that root is a good root, this news is a tragedy. The root is the start of the plant but without the right conditions and attention, the root will die. 

Give attention to the roots that you want to grow. Do not give you attention to those roots you do not want to grow. 

I love you my child, now and forever.

God has a reason...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. Thank you for an amazing day of rest and peace. I love watching your will being accomplished in this world. We think we have plans for the future but when we trust you with the future, you work it all out for our good and it is really beautiful to watch. As I head into this week Lord, I will need your help, as always, for all of the known challenges and the unknown. I am yours God, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

There are times when I cannot share with you every last detail of what is going on. Not because I don't want to but because I know the details might not be able to be understood. 

Sometimes, I need you to trust me whether I can share with you the details or not. When I ask you to step left or move forward, I can promise there is always a reason for it; however, I may not be able to share that reason. 

Trust in me and trust that every instruction from me comes with a true and valid reason, whether I can share it with you now or not. Trust me enough to know that I would not ask of you, unless there were reason. 

Together with God...

 

My prayer:

Amazing Father. Thank you for the rest this weekend. It was wonderful to not need to struggle or work and just rest in you. I don't know what we are walking into tomorrow but I will do my best to remember to trust you in it. To leave it up to you and your will. That always works out the best for everyone. Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

I love you my child and whatever we face tomorrow, we face together. 

I will not let it ruin you. I will not let it crush you. My angels of protection are around you, now and forever. I will see you through each day, for eternity. 

Your trust, your rest, your peace shall be rooted in that truth. 

Conflict...

 

My prayer

Amazing God. I can't believe I am still praying about the same thing. This problem, this conflict just keeps hanging on. It changes shape, but it is not going away and it is exhausting.

I pray God that your peace rule in my life. I pray that your peace overwhelm the conflict. I ask that you resolve this conflict.

What God Said Tonight:

This conflict is not what it seems. It is not as simple as it appears. This conflict has roots to it that you cannot know and you cannot fix. 

I am your God and I will see you triumph over the conflict. I will see you, the peacemaker. 

This conflict is not going to break you. It will be broken off of you. Do not own it. Trust it with me. 

I love you my child.

The purpose of problems...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. I did my best last week to be your reflection of peace in the chaos. I don't think I did a very good job. I think that I may have been calm and reflecting peace in the direct conflict, when it was over, when the crisis took a break, the stress definitely showed through. I also know that i so often tried to handle it all on my own and forgot that I could ask your help. In the heat of it, in the fire, I forgot I could call out to you. I was so focused on the situation, I forgot that you are the solution to every situation. 

I head back into it tomorrow with new opportunities to do better. I pray in advance for your help. In every situation. In every challenge, I pray for your help and your will to be done.

What God Said Tonight:

I didn't ask you to solve the problem. I asked you to reflect my peace. I didn't ask you to bring resolution. I asked you to reflect my peace. I didn't even ask you to create peace in the situation. I asked you to reflect my peace. 

Sometimes my children, you make things so much harder on yourselves than you need to. I don't expect you to solve all the problems. They are  too many and they are too big. I only expect and want you to be what shows the world that I am bigger than that problem...and that you know it. 

That is how you reflect the peace. When the world sees that nothing can shake you, that becomes very interesting. They wonder how you do it. Some will even ask. Then you can tell them about me, my power, my love, that gives you the assurance that you live under each day. 

The problems are not about bringing you harm or stress. They are about showing a world that there is a different and better way to live. A way that allows you to have peace and joy in the midst of chaos, pain, and sorrow. You are a child of God and with that comes great privileges and blessings. The world needs to know that.
