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, I not sure what else to say tonight. We have been talking all day as the challenges of this day chased me down and try to bury me. Thank you God that because I can trust in you, they did not win. I sit here tonight in full confidence that you will take care of this latest hassle. I can rest knowing that you will guide me through each step.
Thank you for walking me through this life. I would be so lost without you, literally and figuratively. I will trust in you forever. I will lean on you every day. I am not much but I am a giant killer with you on my side. Talk to me tonight?
What God Said Tonight:
Ha, you always end up identifying with David. He was a man after my own heart as you are.
You don't know what you avoided simply by trusting me today. I know the circumstances did not look so good, but satan had a much worse plan for this day. Your trust, your faith, your belief that I will take care of you no matter what, stunted his plans. It kept his plans from having the outcome that he had hoped for. He is pretty irritated tonight.
Trust me and I will move mountains for you. I will make sure you succeed. I will prosper you beyond your imagination. Trust me and the world is yours. I will give you an inheritance that you did not earn but is yours because I love you and you are covered by blood. You are adopted to me in my blood. You are the child of my heart and I love you more than I can tell you.
Today was truly a good day. I know you don't see it just yet, but trust me, it was a good day. I love you. Rest now. I have got this.
My prayer:
Wow God, I don't even know what to say. I have no words. Prayer and Worship with the gang tonight was beyond anything I have ever known. Thank you for your anointing. Thank you for the prophecies. Thank you for the visions. Thank you most of all for using 5 month old "J" to lay hands on "D" for healing. I have never seen anything like that. He stretched his little hand out and laid it flat on "D"'s foot for 10 minutes without moving! It was crazy wonderful God! You can use anybody. ANYBODY!
God thank you for the message on being a vessel for you. Thank you God for the vision of the vessel as a clear, white tube with nothing blocking you flowing through us. Thank you God!!!! AMAZING!!! I love you beyond measure.
What God Said Tonight:
You are welcome my daughter. I told you tonight would be special. You created an atmosphere to allow me to move. That is all I really need. Just an open door. Just a willing vessel. Just a opportunity and a little bit of faith. That is all I need.
I don't need a lot of hoopla. I don't need people with fancy degrees. I don't need cameras, although they are good documentation for later. All I need is a little bit of space and an opportunity.
Make space for me and I will do remarkable things in your life. Don't get so crowded and clogged up that you plug up my ability to flow through you. Roto rooter your vessel once in a while to clear out the clogs and I will run free and strong through you.
I am desperate to pour out my love on the world before it is too late. I am ready to flood the world with love. I need to do it through you. I need to do it through the people who already know me. Let me flow through you. let me release my love on the world through you. Now is the time and you are the right person. All is set into place. Let's do it.
My prayer:
My God. My Lord. My teacher. My Father. My Savior. My provider. My peace. My joy. My healer. My everything. You are mine and I am all yours. As we get closer to the celebration of your birth on earth I want to take a minute tonight to recognize that we belong to each other.
You created me and then you bought and paid for me with your blood. I am clearly yours. And, you are mine...because...well, because you are. You are my everything. You created me. You love me. You protect me. You make sure that I have every last thing I need. I choose you. You are mine. And that is it.
That is all that matters. My God, in the craziness around me, you are mine and I am yours. In the tragedy that I see around me, you are mine and I am yours. You are my island of sanity in the middle of insanity.
I am so glad that we belong to each other. What a paltry word for it God "glad". I am out of my mind with gratefulness. I don't have a word for how grateful I am. God, let's get all your kids together and live above the yuck, the sin, that leaches throughout this world. You and us God. I am ready. Let's get on with it. I love you with everything I have that is capable of love.
What God Said Tonight:
Where do you want to go? As long as we are together and you keep your eyes on me, peace is yours. My perfect will is yours. The only time you get caught up in the craziness and the sin is when you get your eyes off of me. We can live in paradise right here and right now. All we need is each other. My family together is all we need. Loving each other.
I hate when you fight each other. Such a waste. Sometimes you sound like two kids in the backseat of the car fighting over who got over on the others' side. Such a waste of time.
Love on each other. Love people. I know it can be hard. They have their issues and you have yours. But love anyway. It is that love, the love for no reason, that will create the beautiful place that you dream of. That will create heaven here on eaerth.
Love your way through. I will always love you. I won't ever stop. Learn to love with a tenacity that won't let go. Love it out.
My prayer:
Awesome God. How do I explain how amazing you are? When I am sad, you bring me joy. When I am confused, you give me wisdom and peace. When I am happy, you celebrate with me. Nothing missing nothing lacking, shalom. That is what you are to me God. You fill every lack in my life and you add to every blessing.
You truly turn EVERYTHING to my good. It is crazy but it is true. I love you God. How could I not? Everything good in my life is a direct result of you.
What God Said Tonight:
Living the good life is not so hard. It is entirely within your control. It is a reflection of your attitude and nothing more. If you live a life of gratitude, you will live a life of blessing.
I am your source. I am the well from which everything you need is drawn. I am all of that because I love you so much. One day, I will be able to show you the full extent of my love. Right now, it would overwhelm you. You could not even fathom it. Know for now that my love is greater for you than you can ever imagine.
My purpose and my plan for your life are intact and will take you places you can't yet imagine. You are my butterfly ready to leave the cocoon and fly free and beautiful.
My prayer:
Awesome God. Why is it that one of the most stressful times of year is when we are celebrating the birth of the Prince of Peace?
I am struggling with stress like I haven't in a long time and I am not sure what to do. The usual helpful tools (exercise, prayer, rest) are not helping enough. They are all good for short periods of relief, but then I am right back to being totally stressed out and letting stupid things bother me.
God, I need your peace to cover me. I need your peace that goes beyond anything that makes sense to take over my mind, my emotions, and my soul. God, fill me with your peace.
I know you are going to take care of everything anyway, what do I have to stress about? Nothing. Absolutely nothing. My heart knows that. I just need it to tell my brain and my emotions who can in turn reshape my attitude.
I am done being stressed out. With your help God, I am done being stressed out. I love you God. Thanks for listening. What is on your mind?
What God Said Tonight:
Turn off the TV, the phone, the computer and spend more time in my presence. We are doing a lot right now. It is good. It is what I have always wanted to do with you; but, it will take a lot. If you are not spending enough time in my presence, if you are not spending enough time refilling with me, you will burn out.
With all the demands of every day, find more time to spend with just me. Nothing but my presence. I will take your stress. I will give you peace. I will fill you with everything you need.
Stop looking around and look at me. Stop trying to see the next thing that is coming and look at me. I promise I won't let you get blindsided. I have my eyes and ears on it all and I will let you know when you need to move and when you need to stand.
We are about to go to another level, more new things. To get there, you need more of me in you. Stay still and let me give you what you need. I am your God and your Lord and I have everything that you need. Trust me, relax in me, shut off the world for awhile each day and let me be your recharger. I love you so much. This too will pass my dear.
My prayer:
God you are good. You are so patient. You are so loving. You are so giving. You are so wise. You are so amazing. You are...God. Sometimes it is the most simple basic things that make me sit down and say, wow!
I mean you are the God of all the universe. You created it all. You are Lord. You are ... that is it, YOU ARE!
Simple basic things. I tend to complicate things and think that there is some great secret but you always bring me back to simple, basic truth.
What God Said Tonight:
You got it. It is all very simple really. That is why I tell you to come to me as a child. You don't have to go to seminary school to know me. What a crazy system that would be. That would mean that I could only know the educated and the elite. When I came to live with you on earth, do you remember me seeking out the educated and the elite? No, I was with the people who needed to know me. I was with the sinners and the hated people. I was with the poor and the beaten down folks. I was with the sick and the suffering.
The only credentials I need for someone to know me is that they have to want to know me. Simple. With that one simple desire, you have a free ticket to get to know me. Seek me, you will find me. Simple.
I love you daughter. You are precious to me and I keep you in a special place in my heart. My children each get a special place, made just for them. Simple love.
My prayer:
Awesome God. I have been thinking about the paths that I did not take in my life. For some reason, I have really been thinking about "what if" a lot lately. I have always said that I don't have any regrets in life because everything that happened and every choice I made led me to right here and this is pretty awesome. That remains true. But, what if I got married when I was 18 like I thought I wanted to? What if I had a bunch of kids? What if decided to take off and roam the world? What if I decided to live for you sooner than I did? What would those lives have been like?
God, sometimes this life seems really long. Then other times, it seems like there just hasn't been enough time to do all of the things I want to do. And, then, there are some decisions that you can't have it both ways. You tell us that it is given to us one life to live. I kind of wish I got to have more than one.
But then I think, that would just delay me getting to be with you in heaven or on the new earth and anything that delays that is not a good thing.
Maybe that is part of why it is so important to have other people in my life? That way, I get to live some of their experiences vicariously. It is not quite the same as living it out myself, but if pay close attention and ask a lot of questions, it might be good enough. Huh, I never thought about it that way but really, having friends, especially friends that are different than I am, broadens what I get to experience in life. Cool.
Thanks for that insight God. I love you and can't wait to here what else you want to teach me or talk to me about tonight.
What God Said Tonight:
Reincarnation is a seductive idea. The thought that if you get things wrong in this life, you can make them right in the next. But, it just doesn't work that way. When you get things wrong in this life there area consequences. There are some that I can protect you from if you are with me and have asked me to be Lord of your life. There are others that are rough but that I can use to have you help other people through your experience.
Shared experiences are vital. You can't never know everything you need to know on your own. One of the things that I approve of with the internet is that it allows people to share experiences that otherwise may have never met. Connect with everyone I put in your life. There is value in every person and in every experience they have. The more you understand people and the things they have gone through, the better you will be able to lead your life and help the people around you. If you isolate and if the only experience you have is your experience, you are extremely limited and become ignorant of all that you could know and understand.
Wisdom is a very fine thing and it comes from experience. Your experience and the experience of others. I love you daughter and I am proud of you. Keep stretching and doing and being who I have created you to be and the blessings will overwhelm you.
