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:
God of all creation who knows everything and is all powerful. I am so grateful that I get to come to you with whatever challenge is before me or before the people you have placed in my life. If someone is sick, you are our healer. If someone needs money, you are our provider. If someone needs wisdom to make a good decision, you are the knower of all things and you give us wisdom. If someone is in danger, you are our protector.
God, we have more needs than we do people in this world. thank you for being the answer to every single one! I love you God and I pray for all of your children who are sick, in need, needing guidance, what ever the need God, I lift them up to you tonight God. You are the answer for every one. I love you Daddy!
What God Said Tonight:
Your prayer has been very similar the last several nights. It is true that I am the answer to every need. There is nothing that has ever happened or ever will happen that I cannot handle. Nothing that is bigger than my ability to deal with it.
I am not shocked by any situation or any problem I already know them all anyway. When you bring them to me, it is not a surprise but I rejoice that you have brought it to me. I rejoice in your faith. I rejoice in our trust in me. Bring me every burden. Don't leave anything out. Leave them with me and I will fight the battle. The battle is and always has been mine. Leave it with me.
There you go, now you are letting it go. You don't have to be tough. You don't have to be strong. You just have to give it to me and let me deal with it.
There was a lot of things coming against you last week. You tried to be strong and stand up to it. I don't need you to do that. Standing strong in faith means giving it over to me so i can deal with it. Don't carry a burden that is not yours to carry. Let me carry the burden and you walk free to do the things we have talked about. I love you and I am here to fight your battles, carry your burdens and be your answer. Always.
My prayer:
My amazing God. Thank you for the rest today. I really needed it and feel SO MUCH BETTER!!
I don't know why it still amazes me but you always know exactly what I need and you make a way to get it to me. Every time, no matter what, you always have it all worked out and get me exactly what I need when I need it. God I love how you provide for me. I love the perfection of your timing. I love how you take care of me and protect me. The rattlesnake on the trail today was startling, but you took care of it and you immediately gave me peace, letting me know that you were protecting me. Never have I seen a more mellow snake. He just slowly moved off the trail and let me by. Now that is You GOD!!
I love you God. You are the source of my every thing!
What God Said Tonight:
I have a way to make everything right in your life. I have a way to make everything be in perfect alignment with my will. I have a way, but there is only one way to get there. There is only one way to to get all that I have for you. That way is through my Son and the sacrifice he made and makes for you.
I know this message is not popular. It never has been, but it doesn't make it less true. I am with you and I provide for you and I protect you and care for you every moment of every day because you are covered in the blood of my sacrifice for you.
I am your Lord and I am your teacher. I am your Savior and I am you your God. Because I am everything to you, I can get everything to you. You are well prepared through the blood of my sacrifice to receive everything I have for you.
Don't ever water down this message. It is an unchangeable truth and it is unfair to tell people otherwise. You are my lighthouse. Be sure the message is always crystal clear and bright. There is only one way to a life with me.
You know how I love you my dear. Sleep well again tonight.
My prayer:
Awesome God I am so glad this week is over! This one was rough. But here I am, with you, in my right mind, with a roof over my head and a full belly...can't ask for a better end to the week than that.
Just being with you would be enough. Everything else is frosting on the cake, but you know that I love frosting! Ok, I am pretty tired, maybe stating that I am "in my right mind" was stretching it a bit!
Any way, I am grateful to be with you. i am grateful for you in my life. I am grateful for the plan you have for me. I am grateful for you my God. You are more than enough for me and I love you.
What God Said Tonight:
I am going to ask you to do some things soon that are not going to be comfortable. Are you ready? I am going to ask you to do some things that initially you may not want to do. Can you trust me?
It is easy to live this life when I ask you to do the stuff you love, when i ask you to use the gifts I have given you. But, can you do the things I need you to do that I may not have specifically gifted you to do? Will you be willing to step out and trust that it will be me working through you?
Can you remember all of the lessons you have learned and follow my lead no matter what? This is what I am going to need from you soon. I want you to be ready for it. I want you to be able to recognize it when it comes. Because, even though it will be uncomfortable, it is from me. I have a greater plan and the bigger picture in mind.
I promise you will be blessed and that everything you do will prosper. i promise that I will be with you and I will destine you to succeed. I promise that you will never want for anything that you need. I love you and i would not ask these things if I did not love and trust you. Get ready.
My prayer:
Amazing God. I am here but I am beat. I think I used up everything I had today. Nothing left tonight but to sit in your presence, hear your voice and be refilled. I love you God. I love your power. I love how even when I know that I am nothing, you are everything.
What was your day like God. What do you want to talk about tonight? Love you!!
What God Said Tonight:
I am without a specific purpose tonight other than to make sure you know how much I love you. I have no agenda except to be sure that you know how precious you are to me. You are carved in the palm of my hand. I will come against all that come against you and in the end, you will be vindicated.
You are my daughter, my child and I love you more than I love myself. I am crazy for you. I gladly sacrificed everything for you.
Sometimes I get frustrated when I see you living with less than I want for you. Sometimes I get angry when I see you make choices that I know will hurt you. But never, in any situation, do I stop loving you.
My love for you is greater than any ocean and is everlasting. It will never fade and it will lessen. My love for you is complete, total and everlasting. I have loved you from the beginning of time and I can tell you that I still love you at the very end. I can see the end from the beginning and my love is there with you in both.
Let my love comfort you tonight. Let it strengthen you. Let it give you peace so you are ready for the challenges and joys of tomorrow. There will definitely be both.
I am after your whole heart, body, and soul. I have your spirit, I am ready as soon as you are. l love you very much.
My prayer:
My God, you are doing a new thing and it is awesome. I am just beginning to see what this new dream and vision could be and I am in awe of you. When you give me a dream, it is so amazing.
This blog God. I haven't talked to you about it in awhile but I remain in daily awe of what you have done and what you are doing every night. By tomorrow, you will have likely reached over 30,000 people on the blog and many times that on the fb page. That is crazy wonderful. Only my God could do something like that! Only my God could take a nobody and use her to type out words that touch people all over the world. God it is awesome being your secretary! I am completely unworthy but completely grateful.
And, this new dream, I can't wait to see where you take it. Help me God to make right decisions and not mess us your perfect will. God I pray that if ever my will is different than your perfect will, I ask right now that your will ALWAYS win. God my desire is that my will is your will. I love you God and I am excited to see what you will do next!!!
What God Said Tonight:
We are of one spirit daughter. My Holy Spirit lives in you and is transforming you daily into what you were designed to be. We share a spirit and therefore we share a will. I love that you choose me. I love that you want my will over your own but the fact is, if we stay close, if we stay in relationship and continue to draw closer every day, there is no difference between my will and your will. We are of one Spirit and of one mind.
You know that friend of yours that you "share a brain with?" There is a reason that you are always thinking the same thing at the same time. You share a brain, but you share it with me. I am with you constantly and I am "talking" with you constantly. During these nightly times, my talk is more direct but only because you are focused and willing to take the time to listen. During the day with all of the distractions of life, I sometimes have to communicate in different ways. Through circumstances, through placing an idea in your mind, through other people, but it is all me talking to you. It is me living out this life with you.
I am with you always and I will never leave you. I will continue to talk and communicate with you. We have a lot to do and it is all good. This next thing is powerful and it will be a blast. There is a reason you have been getting such resistance. This next thing is amazing and you will love it. I will love it. I am excited too!
I love you daughter. Rest tonight and we will do more tomorrow. Listen for my voice in every situation. When you are in doubt on a decision, check with the Holy Spirit that lives in you. It will help you every step of the way. It is my way to be close to you all the time. Love you!
My prayer:
Awesome God. Today was SO MUCH BETTER!!! THANK YOU!!! Thank you for healing me. Thank you for fighting off my enemies. Thank you for taking care of me. Thank you for being true to every promise you have made me.
You are my hope and my future and I trust you God. You are my everything. I was so happy tonight I was dancing in the line at Mad Greens and didn't even realize it! The woman behind the counter smiled and said "Good song?" And I said, "Oh, is there music?" Haha! Now, I didn't dance out of my clothes like my beloved King David, but kind of similar!
I love you so much God!! Thank you, thank you, thank YOU!
What God Said Tonight:
Every problem has a solution and every struggle has a victory as long as you wait on me. I will deliver you every time. I love you daughter.
I know this season has been rough and the challenges are not over; but, remember this night. Post this as a memorial to come back to the next time you are going through attacks and trouble so that you can be encouraged. All of the memorials set up in my name over the years are not truly to honor me but they are meant to remind you. They are meant to encourage you when you are frustrated and without hope. They are meant to encourage you when you think nothing is ever going to change. Keep a memorial of moments like this and revisit them when you feel like you cannot go on.
This deliverance and this joy will always be the outcome of any struggle as long as you stick with me and wait it out with me. Every one of my children has the promise that I am with them, loving them, trying to teach them, and providing for them. I will protect you from harm. I will not protect you from learning and from growth. You need those and often they involve some temporary pain. But, I will ALWAYS bring you out of it. So, stick with it and keep these memorials to encourage you next time.
I am sorry to tell you, but there will be a next time. It will be different but there will be an attack and battle. The battle continues until the war is over. Stick with me because we win. LOVE YOU daughter!!
My prayer:
Mighty and powerful God. Why is it God, that whenever I make a decision to do something for you, something that is out of my comfort zone and more than what I can do on my own, suddenly crazy bad stuff starts to happen. Not stuff related to what I am doing for you but other stuff.
Suddenly, everything seems so hard. I never get sick and suddenly everything hurts and I can barely get out of bed. Friends who are stepping out with me keep having people and pets die. And more stuff.
God I love you and I take these attacks as evidence that what we are doing is important; but, it is still really rough. I need your help. We need your help. I am not strong enough to get through this on my own.
I believe your word and I believe that I am healed through the stripes you took for me. I believe that these temporary symptoms will leave in Jesus name. I believe your word that no weapon formed against us can prosper. I believe that they cannot achieve what they were designed to. I will not quit on you God. I need your strength, wisdom, and help to get through this season.
In Jesus name I declare that I am yours, my life is yours, I will do your will, and I will lean on you through it all. I pray a hedge of protection around me, my friends, my family, and everyone who is stepping out for you, in Jesus name. amen.
What God Said Tonight:
I am with you and I am working this all out. The attacks have come to stop you but I will fight back the enemy for your sake. I will defend you as you defend me. I will stand up for you as you stand up for me.
Your battle is to trust me when it doesn't look so good. My battle is to defeat the enemy. I will not allow him to destroy you and I will not allow him to destroy our dream. Stick it out a bit longer and you will see great victory.
You are right that these troubles are evidence of you doing something meaningful for the Kingdom. You will always see opposition when you step out for me. That's part of why more people don't do it. They think it is too hard. I need you to stick this out and I need you to show the world that it is worth it. I need you to be that shining lighthouse to show people that the battles are worth it. That a life with me is worth it. I need you to live this out publicly so the world can see that I am worth it. That the dream is worth it. That the Kingdom is worth it.
My daughter, I am sorry for the pain. It will be brief I promise. I have already set into place your deliverance from it. Your faith has made you well. I love you and I will keep you safe. I will keep your friends safe. I will keep your family safe. I will keep my family safe. That is one of the first jobs of a father is to keep the family safe and if earthly fathers can do that, how much more will I?
I love you and I will be with you always. You are worth more to me than all of the gold and jewels that ever were. I am your sacrifice and your redemption. I am your warrior protection and your victory. I am yours my sweet daughter.
