Choose again...

My prayer:

God, my God. You are wonderful. I love you. I am anxious to hear your voice tonight.

What God Said Tonight:

You have given me your life. You have told me that I can use you in any way that I want to. You gave me permission to change you. 

Right now tonight, I need to know, I need to hear from you, do you still want those things? Do you still give me complete authority over your life? Do you still want to live your life for me and my purpose? 

Don't answer until you have thought about it. This is not something to be taken lightly. If the answer is "no", I will still love you. I will still guide you. I will still be here for you; however, you will not be living in the great promise I have for your life and you will miss out on great joy to me, the Kingdom, and you. 

If you say yes, I can promise you that it won't be easy. You know that the walk has been tough at times and that will not change. I will continue to push you to grow. I will continue to guide you, love you, keep you. But, if you choose me, I can lead you into the great promise that I have for your life. 

Tonight is a night to rededicate or to decide to walk away. I will love you no matter what. Choose carefully and don't choose until you mean it with every part of your being. 

Season of change...

My prayer:

Today was good God. Just hanging out with you, nothing fancy, but good. I am feeling a bit back on course but I still have that feeling of something slightly off. I don't like feeling that way. It robs my peace. Is it you telling me something needs to change or is it just me? I love you God and it was so good to have a day to just focus on you. I haven't done that in TOO LONG. And, when I don't get that time with you, I am no good to anyone. What is on your mind tonight?

What God Said Tonight:

You are sensing a season of change. I told you a little while ago that I needed you to wait. The wait is almost over and part of the unease is the awareness of that change. 

Change is hard but it will be good. I promise. I will guide you and direct you always. I will take you through this season just as I have every season.. You are not alone. You are never alone. I am with you and guiding you each step of the way. I will never leave you or turn my back. 

I will guide you. I won't let you stumble around in the dark. I am the light that guides you. Your job is simple, focus on me and love....love me and everyone else. Love like crazy. You do those two things and I promise I will work all of the rest of the details out. Love you.

Love....

My prayer:

What a whirlwind today was. There was no predicting today. Nothing went as planned, or at least how I planned it but everything was perfect.  Thank you for reconciliation. Thank you for letting me be at the site of the motorcycle wreck so I could help and pray. And thank you for the reminder of the reality of love and the joy that it brings by letting me see two of the best people I know get married tonight God. 

I  know that I have a lot of work to do. I have gotten off track and I am totally willing to do what it takes to get back or I guess, move forward in my life and our relationship. I love you God. Thank you for all that you are.

What God Said Tonight:

Love, love love, that is it. that is the meaning and the purpose for everything.

Love has been made into such a sad shadow of its true existence. Love is not a pink heart valentine. Love is something that survives no matter what. Love is not swayed by the weather or the climate. Love is constant. Real love will love no matter what. It will love you when you at your best and it will love you when you at your worst.

That is love you deserve and that is the love I have for you. Trust my love because it will never change.

Fog...

My prayer:

God, I am not in a good place tonight. My thoughts aren't right and my emotions aren't right. I am not sure how I got here but I don't want to stay here. Disunity and division are killers and I somehow let them into my life. 

I take authority in Jesus name right now and say to both, you must leave! One Spirit and one purpose. God, you are the only thing that matters. How we get to you doesn't matter. How we tell people about you doesn't matter (as long as we do it). 

Maybe I just lost track of the purpose as I got tangled in the details. 

Oh God, thank you! I feel the release already! I feel the anger and fatigue leaving! Thank you God!!! It doesn't seem like it should be that simple, but it is. So much better God, THANK YOU! Keep you first, keep you first, keep you first...and everything else you will take care of. So simple but so true!

What God Said Tonight:

You had some clouds, some fog that was blurring your vision and keeping you from seeing clearly. The fog comes from the distractions that you allow in your life. The fog comes from the things that you allow to get between us. 

Life has been pretty challenging lately and I understand why you are where you at; but, it is time to push the distractions out of the way and be totally focused on me again. We need some real time together so I can fill you up. We need some real time together so you can remember and feel my love. The five minute power prayers are not quite enough. 

I need more of you. I love you and I get jealous when you are away from me. 

God's dust...

My prayer:

You are wonderful God. Simply and truly wonderful.You always listen, you always help, you always teach and you always forgive. 

I love that you never change. I love that in this world of chaos, you are the same today as you were thousands of years ago. You are perfect and any change would make you less than perfect and you can't be less than perfect because you are the perfect God of everything!

What God Said Tonight:

Picture a beautiful forest with the sunlight coming down through the branches. Experience the peace of that place. Look up and see the sunlight shining in. See the dust in the beams of the light. The light reflects off of the dust. Dust is not beautiful on its own...ever. But, dust in the beam of light is beautiful. It shines and becomes feathery. It looks like a tiny sculpture. The light reflecting off of it makes it beautiful.

You are like dust. On your own, no one would notice but in the reflection of my light you are so beautiful. I love you daughter. Be my dust.

God's gift...

My prayer:

All knowing God. I am sitting here tonight thinking about how great it is that I have an opportunity to learn from every person and every situation in my life. Everything I do, everything I experience, everything I hear about someone else experiencing is and opportunity if I will recognize it as such. That is kind of amazing when I really think about it. I am sorry for every experience that I have wasted and not learned from. Help me God to recognize the opportunity to learn so that I can be better.

What God Said Tonight:

I have given you a book full of experiences to learn from. I never meant for life to be so hard. I planned and provided for you to have the answers even before you had the question. Study my word and you will no how to handle any and every situation that comes your way. 

My word is alive and active. It is alive in that it speaks as loudly today as it did in the past. It is as relevant today as it was in the past. It is active in that it changes things. When you speak it and believe it, it will change the atmosphere and the situation. My word is powerful. My word is my gift to you. 

I love you daughter. Use my gift to make life a bit easier to get through.

Wait...

My prayer:

I worship you God. Your presence and your Spirit are so sweet. I am so grateful that you chose me. I am so grateful that I get to have you in my life. I wouldn't want to live any other way. 

I am not always the best person. I don't always make the right decisions or do the right things. But, you love me and that means more than anything else. The fact that you love me, you died for me, you saved me, and you chose me means I must be worth something. If I can just remember that and stop worrying about "proving" my worth, I bet I will be a lot happier. 

I love you and thank you God for everything.

What God Said Tonight:

Will you wait for me? If you start it up now, it will be too early. I have shown you great things in your future but now is not yet the time. Will you wait for me and my perfect timing? 

I know you like to push things forward and I love that drive in you but tonight, I am asking you to wait. Wait in full anticipation of the future I have promised you, but wait. 

I love you and I will guide you at the right time but you are in position now and there are some things that need to happen before the next push forward. Wait a little while.
