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.
My prayer:
Lord of my life, Jehovah. Thank you for a wonderful day, a wonderful Sabbath. You are so good to me, every day.
Awesome God, I want to pray over our outreach tomorrow. It has been awhile since we have hit the streets. I pray God that it is everything that you want it to be. I pray God that you draw in every person that you want us to talk to. I pray God for your strength and your protection for the team.
I pray that the water quenches thirst, the food satisfies hunger, and the message saves souls. We do this for you and your people God. I pray that you help us to make a difference. Speak through us, shine through us God. Change people's lives tomorrow God. In Jesus name.
What God Said Tonight:
I hear you and I will of course be with you tomorrow. I am always with you. When you are speaking in my name, how much more am I with you. I love you daughter and tomorrow will be everything I had intended it to be. It will bless. It will bless the people there, the people ministering, you, and me. Tomorrow is a day of blessing. You don't have to worry about a single detail. It is going to be more than you have imagined.
You know how most of today you were hiking but not on trails. You were blazing your own trail. Did that remind you of anything? It was a parable of your life right now. You might run into game trails along the way that you can follow but this is uncharted territory you are going into. There is no right way and there is no wrong way. There is only my way.
Seek me daily and I will guide you along the way. You might run into some really rocky and treacherous areas. Sometimes you will have to turn back and back track for awhile, but I will always find the way out for you. I will always find you the safe path to the destination we have set. I love you and I am with you always. Stay close and follow me.
My prayer:
Amazing God! After a full day at work and a full night of worshiping you with friends...I am wiped out and falling asleep sitting up. But, I can't go to bed without hearing your voice What is on your mind tonight? I love you God!!
What God Said Tonight:
Walk in the glory of my presence and people will follow. Watch for the leading of my Spirit and you will travel far. You are made for greatness and I will complete what I have started.
I have such a plan and a purpose that you will not believe. You can believe that it is all coming together for your good. You are a bright star, my shining lighthouse and I have prepared you to shine.
You shine brightest when you humble yourself and lift others to the position of visibility. You shine brightest when you help others to shine. You are meant to ignite those around you to shine. You are meant to teach them how. You are meant for so many things that you would not believe me even if I laid them all out right here and right now.
I will show you every step and I will lead and guide you always. I will never let you wander with out direction of purpose. We have too much to do. You will not walk this path alone either. You will always be surrounded by love. Relax, receive my blessings, reach out to others, you can and rely on me for everything.
I love you. Go get some sleep now. Sweet dreams.
My prayer:
Mighty God and love of my life. I have been consumed all day God with the wonder of being loved. Being loved by you and being loved by amazing people in my life. At the end of the day, that is all that really matters. When all is said and done, I bet the only things that will matter is how much love I was able to give and how much love I received.
Better than money, better than property, better than accomplishments, love is better.
Thank you God for surrounding me with love. Help me to love others better. Help me to love you better. Help me to remember with at least the level of clarity that I do right now, that love is all that really matters.
Amazing God, receive my love tonight. Know God that my love for you is all consuming and that I give it freely without hesitation. I am yours and I am nothing without you.
What God Said Tonight:
Mmmmm, well said my daughter. Stay in love forever. With me, with your neighbor, stay in love forever because it is the only thing that lasts. It is the only thing that matters in a universe of competing demands. Love, be loved and know the meaning of this life of yours.
My prayer:
Sweet God, I am sitting here tonight just feeling so blessed. God, this new level of peace is amazing.
Thank you for an amazing night with my small group family. Those people really know how to love. How did I get to be so blessed to be put in the middle of them? How did I get to be so blessed to be a part of your ministry? How did I get to be so blessed to be able to talk to the most high God? How did I get to be so blessed to hear you speak? How did I get so blessed God? I know I don't deserve any of it. Your grace and mercy are phenomenal God! Thank you for blessing me! Thank you for being a blessing! Thank you God!!!
What God Said Tonight:
You are blessed so you can be a blessing. You are favored so you can favor others. You are my lighthouse remember. Shine for me. Let people see the blessed life you live with me. Let people see what blessings they can have. Let is shine.
I bless you for a lot of reasons. First, because I love you. Second, because I can't really help myself. Third, because I need you to be that lighthouse, that example to the world of what a relationship with me can be like.
Fact is I love you too much not to bless you. I couldn't do it. Can you imagine loving someone and never giving them anything, never doing anything for them? I might have to challenge whether you really loved them if you never gave to them. My blessing your life is a natural consequence of my intense love for you.
I love you daughter. Pass on the blessings and watch them grow and multiply. Every blessing you give away grows and becomes a bigger blessing than when you first received it. I love you. Stay blessed.
My prayer:
Incredible God, the more I know you the more I love you. The more I love you the more I trust you. The more I trust you the more I want to serve you.
I am addicted to your presence and your power. I can't get enough of you God. You are all that I want. You are everything I need. You are worthy God.
God cover me in your blood that I can be acceptable to you. Cover my sin, my faults, every place that I fall short and let me climb up in your lap. Let be near you God. Let me hear your voice. Let me be a part of what you are doing.
If you were a person, they would probably arrest me for stalking you God. I sure am glad you are the most high God and you can handle my love, no matter how intense and crazy it might get. I love you God, every day, every minute, in every circumstance. I love you.
Tell me what is on your mind tonight. My favorite time of every day is when I get to concentrate and listen to your voice.
What God Said Tonight:
Tonight is special and sweet. I have been waiting for you. I have been waiting for you to be ready for tonight.
I have something for you. I have a gift. I have been holding onto it until you were ready and that time is here. You are going to notice a greater anointing and a greater power. You are going to notice that things that use to be difficult are not so difficult all of a sudden. You are going to see things you did not think were possible. You are going to see the realization of things that you hoped for but have not seen. You will be amazed at the difference.
I love you sweet daughter. Walk in this new power, this new anointing and get ready to use it for my glory. I have some great things planned and I am ready to get started. Receive this gift and you will not be sorry. You are so precious to me and I have waited a long time for this moment, this night.
You feel that sense of peace? You feel that power and confidence coming into you right now? That is me. That is my Spirit moving in you building and ready to burst out. Don't worry, you will have plenty of opportunities to see that power at work.
I love you daughter. Thank you for waiting. You will be blessed.
My prayer:
Awesome God. I have to kind of laugh at how my words said in jest always seem to come back to tease me. It was just last week that my nephew said, "Life is confusing." And I, half teasingly said, "Yea, but that is what makes it interesting." It serves me right that I am sitting here tonight and the first thought that comes into my mind is "Life is confusing!" Not so funny when you are the one confused!
God, you keep telling me to wait just a little longer and you are going to show me the big picture. I am trying but you know that waiting is not my strong suit. I get to wondering, did I miss it? Did you tell me the next step and I wasn't paying attention? Or, am I off track and you are waiting for me to get back on track to tell me next step? Or, am I too impatient and I just need to wait? See, confusing!
I love you God so much and I want to do exactly what you want me to do. I want to do it because I love you and I want to do it because I know if I do exactly what you want me to do, it will be a huge success and accomplish everything you need it to. God I want to be useful. I want to be full of use for you. As soon as you are ready, tell me the next step in this dream. If I miss it, please yell it to me until I get it. Thank you Jesus. I love you and your plans.
What God Said Tonight:
My daughter, I can prosper you wherever you are. You are reading about Joseph and he is a great example of what I can do. I can prosper you as a slave or a prisoner. I can prosper you as the leader of a great nation. I can give you favor anywhere and everywhere you go.
Do you understand that I can truly use you wherever you are? I am not stuck with circumstances as they are. I am the God of everything, all powerful and I can change what I need to change.
Seek me, every day and every night. Keep listening and taking time for me. You won't miss it I promise. As long as you are paying attention, you wont miss it. I won't keep it obscured much longer. I promise it will all make sense one day. Until then, trust me in your confusion. Trust that even this, even this confusion has a purpose and is a part of my plan for your life.
I love you now and forever and I have a plan and purpose for you that is so very good. Hang in there girl. You are nearly to the end of these season. Don't give up.
My prayer:
Amazing God. This weekend has gone by much too quickly. There are so many things that I wanted to do that I didn't get done. Tomorrow it is back to work and a busy week.
Sometimes it feels like my life gets so full of routine busy work that I miss out on the things that matter. I go days, weeks, months without really sitting down with dear friends. I put off doing things I love because I am "just too busy." God there has to be something wrong with living life like that.
I feel like it is a time to re-prioritize again. Time to spend more time on the important stuff and less time on the stuff that won't matter even one year from now or even maybe tomorrow.
God you tell us when we lack wisdom we should ask for it and you will give it to us. I ask for wisdom tonight God. Help me to reorganize in a way that makes more sense. I already hear you saying to love you with all my heart, mind and soul and to love others like myself. Sounds like the framework for reorganization to me.
I love you God. What else is on your mind tonight?
What God Said Tonight:
You know one thing I love about you daughter, you are never satisfied. You are always looking for more. The great thing is, I always have more. You can never use up all that I have for you. I will always have more for you. More blessings, more lessons, more challenges, more to do.
You are dear to my heart and I will never let your life get boring for long. You have had some glimpses of what we are going to do next but I am getting ready to show you the whole picture. It is nearly time to move forward. Trust me. I will lead you always. I am with you always. I have everything you need. You can't see it all yet but you will.
The next steps are going to be so exciting, you need this time of relative calm to balance it out. I am a seasonal God and you are about to finish another season and go into a new season. That is why you are feeling restless. That is why life is not satisfying you now. That is why you want to move your priorities around.
I will show you the path and the pattern. I will show you the next step. I will show you all of it. No need to struggle. I have it all under control and you are about to see it all so clearly. Trust in me until then.
I love you daughter. Rest well knowing that my plan is in place and working perfectly.
