Hope...

My prayer:
My God of hope. Today, discouragement came at me from every direction; but, because you are my hope, I did not get discouraged. Because you are my hope, I was able to encourage the people around me. There is such amazing peace when I know that you are in charge and that you will take care of me no matter what. Forgive me for all the times that I have forgotten that Lord. 


What God Said Tonight:
There is a fire coming that will consume everything that is not pure and not of me. There is a Holy Spirit fire that is going to fuel and encourage those who have a heart for me and will chase off all of those who don't. It is time to make a choice. It is time to start choosing sides for the battle to come. 


Will you choose life? Will you choose me? It will not always be easy but it will always be best. I will always provide for you. I will always be your hope. 


In the middle of battle, I am your hope. In the middle of what appears to be failure, I am your hope. In the middle of disaster, I am your hope. Remember Shadrach, Mishach and Abendego in the midst of the fire? I am even your hope in the middle of the fire. I love you daughter. Continue to find your hope in me. 

Live life to the fullest...

My prayer:
My awesome Lord. I am not sure how to talk about what is on my mind tonight. I have been thinking a lot about life today. Thinking about how short this life really is, even when we live out all of our days, it is still short. 


Then I got to thinking about how this life may be more important to people who don't have the confidence of living through eternity with you. If I thought that this is all there is, I might be a bit more intense and worry more. But, when I look at this life, the only thing that I can think of that I can only do while I am here, that I cant do when I live forever with you is that now, in this life, I can share you with people who don't know you yet. When I am living forever in heaven with you, everybody will know you already. 


Just thinking...Love you Daddy!


What God Said Tonight:
Live your life to the fullest. I have provided an abundance for you in this life. Eat well, sing often, laugh even more often. Spend every moment in my presence. Love the people around you. 


There is much for you in this life. I gave you life and it is good. The challenges in your life will only make you stronger. The blessings in your life will engulf you. The joy that I have for you is bubbling up and will overflow in your life. 


Heaven is wonderful. Our future together is fantastic. But, please don't fail to enjoy the life that you are in right now. Please don't think that because it is not "heaven" that it doesn't matter. 


Stop waiting for tomorrow and do it today. That thing you have been putting off until tomorrow, do it now. I will bless it and you. I want you to have the best life. I want you to have a life that you can look back on and think, that was good. Your eternity with me will come, but let's not rush it. Enjoy today. Today is good. I love you daughter.

Water...

My prayer:
I see a river of pure crystal clear water. I see the bottom of the river bed covered in smooth river rocks. I see the sunlight glinting off of the water and making the stones sparkle. 


Some describe your voice as running waters. Your voice to me has always been a calm sweet voice. It  comes with a complete sense of peace. Not unlike the feeling I have seeing this river in my mind tonight. The water is gently rolling over the stones. It is beautiful and peaceful. Just like you God, beautiful and peaceful. 


I love you God and I praise you. I give you all the glory God because you are glorious. I give you all my praise because you are worthy of praise. I give you all my love because you are love. I give you all of me because you made me and I belong to you. I love you God. Thank you for another wonderful day in your presence.


What God Said Tonight:
I am the living water that sustains you. I am the well that never runs dry. I am sufficient to supply all of your needs. My living water restores. My living water brings life to things that were dead. 


Let my living water roll over you tonight. There are some things that are dead in your life that I want to resurrect tonight. There are some dreams that have died that I want to bring back to life. There are some hopes that you have put away and allowed to wither and die but I am here tonight to bring them back to life. 


Find you hope in me. Remember that all things really are possible with me. I am your God and I love you. I will make sure that every detail of your life is blessed as long as you stick with me. 


Listen to me when there are hundreds of voices round you trying to get you to listen to them. There are many who have a legitimate message of my love. But always listen to me first...and last. I love you my sweet daughter.

Spring...

My prayer:

My Father. I have spent a lot of time talking about me lately. How about I stop talking tonight and just listen? That is what I love to do. To hear you speak to me and to spend time with you, that is the really good stuff.

What God Said Tonight:

Spring is coming daughter. In the natural and in the spiritual world, spring is coming. I know it looks cold, dark, and dead right now, but spring is coming and it will be beautiful beyond your belief. There will be beautiful flowers all around. Everything we be green with new growth. The air will be crisp and the Spirit will be fresh. 

Spring is the time of growth. It is the time for all of those seeds that you have sown to become wheat they were intended to become. The financial seed you have planted is about to come up in a crop for harvest. The time that you have sowed is about to come back in time of leisure and joy. That talent you have sowed is about to become your provision. It is about to multiply back into your life. 

I love you daughter and you will love this Spring. Don't get discouraged now. Not now when we are so close. Rest just a little bit more. Try to be patient. It is worth the wait. 

Strength...

My prayer:
Mighty God. I am simply worn out tonight. It is one of those nights where I wish I could just jump on  a plane and go to some far off island and hide for a day, a week, a month...or longer. 


Life can be overwhelming at times. I love you God and I don't mean to complain, but I am. Maybe it is the weather, can't believe we had more snow! Maybe it is stress. Maybe I just have the wrong attitude tonight. Whatever the cause, I just want to run away, just for awhile. 


Forgive me God for not being stronger. Give me the strength and whatever it is I need to stick to it and do all that you have for me. Let me escape in your arms tonight to strengthen me for tomorrow? Thank you Jesus.


What God Said Tonight:
I am your refuge and your strength. Stop trying to be strong in yourself and rely on my strength. My strength will never run out. 


You are trying to stand too much on your own again. I understand, I made you to be independent and strong; but, your strength will never be enough. Be independent but don't be independent of me. Be strong but don't be strong outside of my strength in you. 


I am everything that you need. I will take you anywhere you want to go but I won't help you run away. I will give you everything you need to stand strong. Just remember it is my strength you are standing in. I am your strong tower and I will never fall. Lean on me for your strength and you will never grow weary. 


I love you daughter and I am with you now and forever. I am your strength and I will never let you down. 

All in...

My prayer:
Mighty and magnificent God. I love you more than I can say. I am devoted to you in a way that I didn't even know was possible. I am all yours now and forever. 


If you can use anyone, use me. If there is any good that can come out of me for you, it is yours. I am all yours, every part of me, every aspect of who I am, every talent I have is yours to do with as you wish. God I pray that I am a blessing to you and to everyone you put in my life. 


What God Said Tonight:
I need all of you. If you are going to be the person that I intended, if you are going to accomplish the things I have for you, if you are going to receive all that I have to give you, I need your all. 


I can't do much when you are only part way in. I can't do much when you silo me into certain parts of your life and keep me out of others. When you try to put me in a box and keep me for Sundays only, it limits what I can do in your life and what I can do for you. It limits my ability to bless you. 


I won't ever invade a part of your life that you have not invited me into. But, that means when you run into trouble in that area, I am not there to bail you out. It means that if I have a blessing for you in that area, I can't get it to you. If you keep me out of your workplace, I can't bless the work of your hands. If you keep me out of your love life, I can't bring you the person I have meant for you and I can't bless that relationship. I can only move and work in the areas of your life that you let me into. 


I promise I will never force my way in; but, when you let me in, I will make everything work out to your good. Let me in. Don't be a half way Christian. Be all the way in so I can bless everything of you.

Constant change...

My prayer:
Awesome God. I feel like I am waiting for something but I don't know what. I feel anxious, on the edge of my seat, and that something is about to happen, but I don't know what. I feel like a change is in the wind but I don't know what it is. Is it a good change? Is it a bad or a hard change? I don't know but I am restless. 


God, I pray that whatever it is, you help me/us through it. I pray that you give us wisdom and favor no matter what comes. Thank you Jesus!


What God Said Tonight:
There are a lot of things that are about to change. There are a lot of things that are changing as we speak. Life is change. If something is not changing, it is not alive. All things that live are in a constant state of change. 


You should not be anxious about change. Once you realize that everything is changing all of the time and once you accept and realize that I will walk you through all of it, there is no reason to be anxious, nervous or worried about change. 


Rest in my arms and I will guide and carry you through the changes. I know every bump in the road and every turn of the path. I know what is at the other end and I am taking you where you need to go. Change is life. Embrace change and embrace life. I love you daughter, now and forever.
