My prayer:
My God, you give me so much every day that I take for granted. I wake up every day with a strong body and in divine health...hey wait a minute, let me take a step back...I wake up every day, let me be grateful for that for a minute! I have a wonderful home, a great job, amazing friends, wonderful family, more ministry opportunities than I know what to do with. There is so much in each and every day that is a complete blessing from you and I am not grateful enough. I take all of it, and you for granted and that is not right.
God, I love you so much. I am so grateful for the life you have given me. I am so grateful for the relationships you have given me. I am so grateful for the things you have gifted me with. I am so grateful for the opportunities you give me to use those gifts.
Most of all God, I am grateful for you. I am so grateful that somehow, you saw something in me that you were willing to die for me. I am so grateful that somehow, you are always willing to spend time with me, whenever I ask. I am so grateful that somehow, you love me. You are precious to me God.
What God Said Tonight:
Of course I am always here for you. Of course I love you. Of course I will take care of you and provide everything you need. I am your Father and you are my most precious child that I created for this very purpose. I created you so we could have this time together. I waited a long time for us to have the relationship that we do.
I will wait as long as it takes, just to be with you. My love for you has no bounds, no boundary. My love for you is the love of a Father for a daughter, but so much more. My love for you is complete and total and never changing. If I could somehow get you to truly understand my love, everything else would be easy.
There is no struggle, no battle, no pain that can stand up to true love, to my love. I am love. I tell you that a lot and one day, you will get a full understanding of it.
I want you to know that I never provide for you out of obligation. It is not like I am a man who goes around trying to be good. I am good. I can't hep it. I am truth, I can't help it. I am love, I can't help it. I am. and I wouldn't want to be anything more or less.
I will guide you in this next step especially. It is a little tricky. But never forget my love for you. Until you get a full understanding of it, just trust that it is greater and more than you could ever imagine. Imagine the best love you can think of, multiply it by one billion and then you start to see my love for you. You and me, now and forever. Rest well tonight, there is a big week ahead as you know...
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.

Sweep aside...
My prayer:
Awesome, mighty God of everything. God forgive me for ever getting caught up in religion and rules that are not from you. God forgive me for missing the opportunity you gave me to love today. God, forgive me for every opportunity I have missed because I was distracted by things that don't matter.
I pray God and ask that you help me to live a life on purpose this week. Help me to make decisions based on your will and not based on the most immediate fire that needs to be put out. Remind me God, every minute, what is from you and what is tradition and religion. Help me to stay focused on the things that are truly from you. God, I don't have time to mess around with anything that is outside of your will.
I love you God and I want more than anything to stay completely focused on you and your will.
What God Said Tonight:
I am ready for a new generation that is seeking me. Seeking me in truth. Seeking me beyond the tradition. Seeking me beyond the religion. I have groomed this generation to go into the next level and season.
It is not for everyone. Not everyone will understand. But you, my children, are meant to know me, personally. It is my greatest desire to have a personal and daily relationship with every one of my children.
I appreciate that there are distractions. I understand that life is busy. But I hunger for your time and attention. Just you and me. Times like this. Times when I can talk to you and you listen. I hunger for these special and intimate times.
Tonight, sweep aside the religious oppression that you have been battling. Sweep aside the distractions. Sweep aside everything that keeps you from fully experiencing me in your life. If there is anything that blocks you from me, if there is anything that turns you from me, turn your back on those things and run to me. Those are the things that satan has put in your way as stumbling blocks. Those are the things that he is trying to use to trip you up. Recognize them quickly and run away from them into my arms.
I am here for you always. I am your Daddy, your teacher, your Lord, your healer, and your savior. I am beyond any other experience of your life. I will lead you out of the dark places and I will light your path. I will guide you always.
This battle is a short one. It is intense, but it is short. You are closer to victory than you know and the victory will be sweet. Find your victory in relationship with me. Find your victory in our love. Rest, recover, and know that I am still God.

Relationship...
My prayer:
God you are good. Pure, undiluted good. Everything else, everyone else, including me, is good sometimes and sometimes not. But you God, you are ALWAYS good. You are the definition of good.
You are peace in the middle of chaos. You are comfort in the middle of pain. You are joy in mourning. You are health and healing in sickness. You are the provider in times of lack. You are the victory in battle. You are wisdom in the middle of ignorance. You are God and you are Good! There is no one like you God.
I am all yours, now and forever, in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health, in plenty and in want, forever.
What God Said Tonight:
I love you daughter and your worship is a sweet and wonderful fragrance here in heaven. The angels join you in worship. They are singing your praises to me in a sweet melody. I wish you could hear it. You would love it.
Rest your head on my chest and let me hold you awhile tonight. I can't get enough of you. I know I have been telling you a lot lately, but I love you so much and I think you need to hear it. I think you need to feel it. I think you need to experience that love at a whole new level.
My commitment to you is complete and eternal. I will never turn my back on you.
You had a revelation today about hope. You realized that if the thing you have been wanting doesn't happen, I will bring you something better. Keep that realization alive and in the forefront of your mind. I will always bring you something better. You will never be disappointed permanently. You can rest assured that in every disappointment, I have a greater gift on the way. If you could start seeing disappointment as the indication that something greater is coming, I think you would be so much happier.
Try to remember how much I love you. Try to remember that even if I was a man, I would know how to give you great gifts out of my love for you. Since I am God, how much better will my gifts be? Get ready for some big gifts. I want to lavish and spoil you. I return your oath. We are in an eternal covenant that will not be broken. I love you my sweet.

The quilt...
My prayer:
What an awesome night God! It seems a little crazy that some of my most intense times of worship with you have occurred sitting in my car. No big church, no big band and sound system, no choir, just you, me, sometimes a friend, and some anointed music.
I wonder what all the folks on 6th Ave. were thinking tonight...two women singing, laughing, praying, and worshiping in a car on the side of the road. I know sometimes the music was so loud that the car was shaking. At the time though, I didn't see anyone but you. I didn't hear anyone but you.
God, in those intense, intimate times with you I am reminded that all of the rest of it is worth it. I am fully convinced that I will do, not do, and give anything you want me to. There is nothing I will hold back from you. There is nothing that you ask that I won't give you. God I know that if you ask for it, it is better with you than with me.
I love you God. Thank you for the new experiences tonight God and thank you for giving me the courage to speak the things you were telling me. Thank you for new levels of intimacy and service. Thank you for everything God.
What God Said Tonight:
What, you think worship time is over for the night? We have just begun. You are in for the experience of your lifetime so far, if you are willing. I want to stay with you tonight and not leave and not go silent. I have a lot to tell you about if you are willing.
I want to tell you tonight there is a purpose and plan to fulfill. There are events taking place, right now that will affect eternity. There are people being born right now that I have waited an eternity for. There are decisions being made that will form the direction of the future. There are decision being made that will hinder and help the plan to unfold.
You are a part of it all. You are an essential part of the quilt I have woven that is the future. You are the thread that holds pieces together. You are a seam that defines the shape. You are the structure that the pieces fit in to make the mosaic of life.
I have a destiny and a purpose for each of my children. Some are the quilt pieces that fill a specific spot. They are all so beautiful and so different. They are beautiful on their own but their true beauty comes out as they become a part of the larger pattern.
Then there are people like you. People who are the thread that define, shape, and hold together the quilt. The thread is beautiful too although not always noticed. However, without the thread, the quilt would just be a pile of remnants. The thread is what brings the remnants together.
Finally, their is the designer. The one who decides what pieces go where, what stitches go where, how big the quilt will be. I am the designer. Follow my lead and we will make a beautiful quilt together.
I love you daughter. Tonight was wonderful for me too. We will continue to reach new levels for as long as you are willing. There is no limit to me and there is no limit to what we can do together if you are willing to trust and risk it all for me.

Tied up...
My prayer:
What an awesome day God! You are so amazing. Thank you for showing me what I needed to do today. Thank you for giving me the courage to do it. Thank you God for blessing it and working it all out. I feel so free!!
You are so amazing God. You always know what I need to do, learn, say, not do, and everything. Help me God to ALWAYS listen to you. Thank you for teaching me how to listen and how to be obedient to what you say quickly. I use to fumble around so much with resisting, avoiding, and rebelling. Not that I don't do some of that still, but you have taught me how to see it so much quicker and that cuts out so much of the pain. Kind of like a band-aid, rip it off quick and it doesn't hurt as bad.
I love you so much God. I would be so worthless if you hadn't saved me. I would be less than worthless if you didn't keep teaching and helping me everyday. I need you so much. Thank you Jesus!
What God Said Tonight:
You were tied with a rope around your ankle that was no less real just because it wasn't visible. You had been tugging against that rope, trying to get away, to move forward and it was exhausting you. It was straining and leaving marks on you. It was marking you as a prisoner. You pulled until you fell.
Untying the rope was the easiest and the hardest thing in the world to do. The ropes in your life are untied with forgiveness. Giving it, asking for it, forgiveness frees you from being bound and held back.
Anytime you are not moving forward and feeling stuck. Look for the unforgiveness. Most always there is either someone you need to forgive or someone you need to ask forgiveness from. True forgiveness takes a sacrifice and is not easy. But, once it is done, you will wonder why you waited so long.
You are free tonight from the bondage of unforgiveness. Stay free my daughter. Run from unforgiveness. It is an enemy that will trap you every time. Forgiveness is the key to release you. I love you. I forgive you. Be mine forever.

Focus...
My prayer:
Awesome, amazing God I worship you. My focus is you tonight God. Sometimes I get so tied up in my own stuff, I forget to enjoy you. Tonight is about enjoying you, worshiping you, loving you.
God, how do I describe you? How do I describe that experience like no other where you fill me, fill the atmosphere, and create something beyond the natural experience.
God, my life is good; but, if I had this exact same life without you in it, it would be worth nothing at all. "Life" without you is not life at all.
God I feel you here tonight. I hear you God. You are always welcome God, wherever I am you are welcome. If I am there, consider yourself a VIP guest. Well I guess you can't be a guest since you created, own, and are God of everything. You are and will always be my +1 God. If they invite me, they better understand you are coming with me. We are a package deal.
Thank you for being you and being in me God. I love you so much. What is on your mind tonight.
What God Said Tonight:
I am your one and only and you are mine. I am so jealous over you. I hate it when you lose your focus off of me. Not because I need it but because you need it. You need to stay focused on me or things start going south in your life.
Whenever I see you let things get in the way of you and me, whether it is worry, business, friends, TV, work or just general sin, it hurts me so much. Then I get angry. The pain I feel is more for you and what those choices will do to you. The anger is about satan getting foothold in your life. He has no right in your life, but when you lose focus you open the door to him and he will always take more than you offer him. He never leaves empty handed.
I can't stand to see you give pieces of yourself to him. You belong to me. All of you. I love you so much, I love all of you. I don't want you to be less you than you are because you let him in. Keep the door shut on him for your sake and mine.
Keep your focus on me and we will do great things. Carry that focus throughout your day and we can start having fun again. It has all been pretty serious lately which is ok. We all need serious time. But I am ready for some fun. I am ready to have some fun with you again. You are everything to me and I love you.
