The lost child...

My prayer:

Pretty drained tonight God. Today was a challenge for sure. You brought me through, like always. I love living life with you God! Ready to sit in your presence and listen.

What God Said Tonight:

I lost a child, a lamb along the way. One that I wanted and had claimed as my own has wandered away and I must find them. They cannot survive on their own. 

I am calling their name but they have not heard me. I will not give up on them. I will not leave them. I will continue to follow them and call to them until they hear me. 

Listen carefully, do you hear me calling your name? I want you home, I want you in my arms, I want you with me now and forever. 

I grieve over the lost child. I rejoice over the lost child come home. I don't care where you have been I don't care what you have done. I just want you home 

Good news...

My prayer:

Thank you God!!! I had so many things that I thought were going to be hard today and you made everything easy! My favorite part of today was watching two of your kids get a new level of freedom in you through your grace. 

It is SO WONDERFUL God when we start to really understand the grace you have for us. It is hard for us. It is so foreign to believe that no matter what we do, you will not stop loving us, you will not stop forgiving us, you will not stop blessing us because of who you are and what you did for us. We didn't do anything to deserve your love and we can't do anything to lose your love. Period, end of story.

Once I understood that, I was free to invite you into every dark corner of my life and let you start to change me from the inside out. That is freedom. That is salvation. That is the GOOD NEWS!

Love you so much. Thank you for being you and doing things the way you do.

What God Said Tonight:

Well done. I don't judge you on your actions, good or bad but I recognize obedience in you. I recognize faithfulness in you. I recognize your heart to do my will and share my grace.

There is no greater call than to share my grace and love with other people. There is no higher standing than a witness to the good news that all law is fulfilled and all grace abounds for those who believe in me.

Kick off evil...

My prayer:

Wonderful day again God. You are blessing me abundantly and I know I don't deserve but I do love it! Thank you for covering me with your sacrifice that I can be worthy of you. Thank you for not looking at what I do but looking at your righteousness that covers me. Thank you for changing me from the inside out so I can bless others like you bless me.

God, we have the new Bible study tomorrow night. I am excited but a little nervous. I ask that you bring everyone that you want to be there. I pray that you are in charge. I pray that you anoint the time so people hear directly from you. Let this Bible study be a place where people can see directly how you and your Word can apply to them personally. Let this Bible study be a place that helps each of us get closer to you and know you better.

Thanks God and amen!

What God Said Tonight:

I will kick evil off you as it tries to attach to you. I will wrap my arms around you to keep you safe. I will enfold you in my light that the darkness cannot take you. I will keep you safe from all harm. 

I love you and you are mine now and forever. I will not tolerate any violence or evil to come against you. I will not tolerate it. 

You are meant for great things and I have set you aside. I have consecrated you  and I will not have you diminished. I love you my child.

Water...

My prayer:

I have nothing worth talking about running through my mind tonight God. How about I just listen to you instead? Love you so much!

What God Said Tonight:

Water is such a good picture of my presence. 

Water refreshes and refuels. Water is an absolute necessity for life. Water flows through and over things and always gets to it's designation. Water is never lost or diminished. It changes form, but it is always present. Water can move a mountain of tear out a forest. Water can soothe and restore. Water can heal and can support you. Water is essential for life but has the power to kill. 

I love you daughter and I love when you seek to know me better. We have so much eternity to live together and it is so easy when you know me. I love you.

Rejoice at the root...

My prayer:

God you are my blessing and your favor is on my life and I am SO GRATEFUL!!!!! What an amazing day of blessings and favor! I am so grateful that you are on my side and that you work everything for my good. It is amazing and wonderful and, if I was not living it, I probably wouldn't believe it. 

Thank you for the favor with our new client today. Thank you for healing my friend's mom. Thank you for amazing weather. Thank you for helping two wonderful friends have new levels of confidence in you today. Thank you for the amazing, breakthrough, wonderful, world changing news tonight! Can't wait to see what you do tomorrow.

LOVE YOU! PRAISE YOU!! ALL GLORY TO YOU GOD!!!

What God Said Tonight:

Days like today are like flowers blooming. The plant has been there all along. The roots growing in the ground, the stem coming up and the leaves spreading out. But it is not until the flowers come out that you truly see the plant and rejoice in its presence. 

I am taking you into a new level where you rejoice at the root, knowing the flower is to follow. I am taking you to a new level that you will be able to truly rejoice at the beginning of a thing, at the preparation stage and you won't have to wait for the result. 

I love you and I will see you mature. Not for my sake but for your sake. I want you to live a life a of joy and contentment and this is a key part of that life. 

Love you my sweet daughter. Sleep well.

Disappointment...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I want to lift up people who are hurting from disappointment tonight. We try to live a life of hope but sometimes, things don't work out the way we think they will and that can hurt like crazy.

God I pray that for every disappointment, you bring a new and bigger dream. I pray that every hurt be turned for their good. I ask that you comfort them in the disappointment and heal the hurt.

Leaving it in your hands, trusting with confidence in your love for us.

What God Said Tonight:

Some things must die before the season of new beginnings can come. No one likes the death but it marks a turning point for your future. 

The pain, is temporary. The disappointment is fleeting and without true substance. 

I am your hope. I will bring you into new beginnings that will provide seven fold the blessing you were expecting from this disappointment. I love you and will walk you through to the new season. 

Rest in me. 

You are now free from the past, from the bondage of the dream that was never meant to be yours. Move forward knowing that I will guide you.

Open doors...

My prayer:

How many things have I missed out on in life because I thought I was not ready? I hear people say that all the time God. You open a door in their life and they say, I am just not ready for that. The problem with that is, the door doesn't usually wait for them to be ready. It usually closes long before. I think that is where a lot of our regrets in life come from.

God I ask that you help me to step through every door you open for me, whether I think I am ready or not. I know that you prepare me for everything so if you bring it, I must be ready, even when I think I am not. God give me abilities beyond my nature to meet the needs of every open door.

Love you!

What God Said Tonight:

Not every open door is from me. You must seek me, the Holy Spirit to guide you to the right doors. 

Not every decision you make is going to turn out the way you planned. But I can use anything to do anything. So, call out to me, seek me. I will guide you to the open doors that will result in good things for you and the Kingdom. I will point you away from the doors leading to ruin. 

I will guide you, I will prepare you, and I will work it all out. 

Love you too, more than you can ever know.
