Tough times...

My prayer:

Amazing God. Thank you so much for what you have done in my brother's life!! You are awesome and your favor is wonderful!! 

God, I have some friends that are really going through tough times. Truth is, most of us are going through tough times of one kind or another. I pray God that you send us hope tonight. I ask that you show us the good future you have for us. Remind us God of all of the times that you have taken care of us in the past and give us complete confidence that you will take care of us now.

Your promises never change, you love never changes. What you did for us yesterday you will do for us again. You will rescue us. You will take us to new fields of glory in you. You are our strong tower and in you we will trust. Thank you Jesus!

What God Said Tonight:

I am happy to come along side of you and walk you through the trouble. Or, if you let me, I can move inside of you and change you in the midst of the trouble. The change in you will last a lifetime. The change in the situation will only last a moment. 

I will love you no matter what. I will save you no matter what. I will prosper you, no matter what. 

Stretch yourself...

My prayer:

What an interesting day God! Thank you for resolving the 2 year conflict today. Thank you for the new opportunities. Thank you for where you have me right now. It is not perfect but it is exciting!!!

I love you like crazy God and can't wait to hear your voice tonight.

What God Said Tonight:

I see value in you that you do not yet see yourself. I see potential in you that you have yet to imagine. 

I am here to challenge you to grow to the next level of your experience so that you can achieve the phenomenal. 

I don't need you to achieve for me. I don't need you to impress me. But I want to show, through you, my power and my ability to see the miraculous done on earth. 

It is time to stop playing and stop accepting that what you have known is the best that it can be. That is not true. I have infinitely more for you. Stretch yourself that you can reach what I have for you.

Talking to God...

My prayer:

Thank you God for the activity of prayer. I love to pray for people, I love to be prayed for, I love to pray. There is such an intimacy in prayer. Intimacy with you and intimacy with those I am praying with. There is a spiritual connection that happens when two or more of us approach you in prayer that is indescribable and wonderful. 

Then, because you are you and you are so wonderful, you show up and comfort, heal, and change the situations when we ask. It is crazy when I think about it. Not only do you invite me to talk to you, the Most High God of the Universe!!! But also, you listen and take care of the burdens that we bring you. Doesn't get much better than that.

It is pretty amazing when I take a minute to think about it. Thank you SO MUCH!

What God Said Tonight:

When I created you, I had in mind that you would be my friends. My children yes, but also my friends. In the sacrifice of Jesus, you became those friends who I could talk to and who could talk to me. I said that I no longer counted you a slaves but as friends. 

We would not be very good friends if we could not talk to each other. And there is nothing more that I want than your love and friendship. It means the world to me. Love you!

Perfect...

My prayer:

We made it God!!! Friday night and I get to be here with you. That is a successful end to a crazy week! 

God, thank you for everything you did this week. Thank you for being so wonderful. Thank you for talking to me, helping me, guiding me, loving me and making me succeed. You are tremendously amazing and I love you!

What God Said Tonight:

I am the light in the darkness that will guide you through every situation. There is no confusion in me. There is no need to worry or to wonder with me. 

When I tell you to do something you can do it with complete confidence that it is the best path for you. I have plans for you and they are all good. I have some perfect plans for you. It is my desire that you live in perfect peace, perfect health, perfect love. I am perfecting you even as we speak. 

Your day will come when you will ask, how did I get here and where do I go from here. That day will be evidence that you have completed another layer of your maturity. 

The good news is I always have greater levels of understanding and intimacy for you. Start to get your story out, your testimony. Tell people so they can see and know there is hope. 

In our quest to do great things, no not forget the poor, diseased servant who served you so well.

The road of perfect purpose...

My prayer:

Wonderful Lord. I am in awe tonight to look back and see how it is I came to be where I am today. This next thing that you have prepared, which is so clearly from you. No one else could have arranged so many divergent things and people over so many years to come together for a single purpose. 

God sized dreams are exciting and scary! 

Thank you for preparing me. Thank you for providing the opportunities. Thank you God for being in charge this whole time, working together everything, even the things I thought were so disappointing when they happened and making it into something bigger and better than I could have ever imagined on my own. 

What God Said Tonight:

Hang in there. There is not too much farther to travel to the road of your perfect purpose. 

Know that when you get there, it won't all be easy. You will work and you will fight but you will do it all for me and I will be your ever present help. 

I have positioned you. I have protected you. I will promote. you. You will see your dream of serving me lived out in a way you never could have imagined. 

I am yours and you are mine, now and forever.

Changed by love...

My prayer:

Awesome God. Make me a better person. God, I want to add value to everything and everyone around me. I don't want to be a drain or a subtraction in anyone's life. 

Fill me with your love that it overflows out of me. I know when I let stress get the upper hand, that the stress will flow out of me onto others. I want that to be true of your goodness, grace and love. Let you and all your goodness outshine the lack in me. 

Help me to love from the core of me. Go deep into me and wash out any bitterness, hurt or lack. Anything that gets in the way you flowing through me. 

I ask this for my sake, for the sake of those around me and most of all for your Kingdom's sake. We have got to get better at loving each other here on earth. It is getting pretty scary.

What God Said Tonight:

When you look at the world, you see crowds of people. You see disasters. You see wars and rumors of wars. And all of those things are happening. But I see Jimmy and Joseph. I see Serina and Sara. I see Yaniv and Yolanda. 

I see each of my people, my kids, individually. I see their struggles. I see their challenges. I see their hurts. I see also, their futures. I know that they will get to their promised land. I know that they will get to the place of loving those around them as themselves. I know that they will get to the place of their purpose. I don't have to see them in it today to know that it is in them. I don't have to see it in you today to know it is in you. 

I will continue to change you from the inside out. That is what I do. I will continue to grow you and help you. I will always continue to love you. 

My love is the key, truly. When you truly experience my love, everything is changed. There is no limit to my love. No matter how much you feel it, no matter how much you know, I will always love you more than that. You will never reach the end of my love. 

Movement...

My prayer:

Wonderful God of peace. I am content in you tonight God. I am simply content. That is not a state that I get into too often but it sure feels nice. No striving, no questioning, no worrying, no grasping, just content knowing that you are you and you love me and we are here, right now. 

I love you God. Thank you for contentment.

What God Said Tonight:

Today you are content which is good but it is not a time for rest. It is a time to stand up and move. It is a time to step forward, step out and see the Kingdom of God that is at hand. 

In your contentment, know that you will have much to do in this time. Listen for me, my voice, my guidance and I will take you down each vital path. This is a season of movement and you should be ready and prepared to move with me. 

Love you now and forever.
