New life...

My prayer:

I feel like I should talk about something else but I can't stop talking about or thinking about how everything is changed since you provided this latest core healing in me. 

 

Life feels brand new. I walk into the same experiences and circumstances but my reaction, how I feel, is completely different. I have a new confidence and freedom that is truly phenomenal. 

 

Thank you so much God for healing me and for how that healing has improved my life. Only you could do that. Thank you for loving me enough to do it. 

What God Said Tonight:

I have promised you new life. That new life is not a one time deal. Your life with me is a continual process of renewing. 

 

All things are made new in me. I will create in you a new thing. Not just at the moment you first make a decision to walk with me, but ongoing, every day, throughout eternity as long as we are in relationship together. 

 

I will renew your strength. I will renew your spirit. I will renew your youth. I will renew you over and over. I don't run out of new things for you.

Bubble over worship...

My prayer:

You have given me so much and helped me so much this week God. What can I give you? What would bless you?

What God Said Tonight:

I am blessed in  your worship. Your true worship.

Not the worship where you sing me a song because you think you should or because everyone else is. But the worship that comes from your heart. The worship that comes from your spirit. When you worship in spirit and in truth.

Where your love and awe of me just bubbles out of you in song, in prayer, in cries, in generosity, in almost any way. I love that bubble over worship. The kind you just can't hold in.

Today...

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you so much for this new level of freedom. Even though nothing around me has changed, everything is changed because of the change you have made in me.

Thank you for your healing power, your love, your grace and for continuing to take me to new levels of wholeness, freedom and maturity in you. LOVE YOU!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I have a voice for those who will hear. I have a voice that will one day shake the world to its knees. I have a voice that created all that you know.

I have a voice. But not everyone knows it. Not everyone sees, or hears, that my voice is speaking today.

Not everyone understands that I am your God. Not I was your God. Not I will be your God in heaven but I am your God right here and right now.

I have a word for you today. I have a plan for you today. I have healing for you today. I have love for you today. My grace covers you always.

I am speaking, today. Hear my voice, listen for it. I have something for you today.

Worth it...

My prayer:

Thank you for today God. It really felt like a gift. So many things that could have gone wrong and not only did they not go wrong, you provided perfect and wonderful alternatives that were better than the initial plan. That is so like YOU!

You are amazing and wonderful and I am so grateful that you are in me and in my life. Let me hear your voice.

What God Said Tonight:

My way is not always the easiest way but it is always the best way. My way requires trust and facing the hard truth sometimes but I will always make it worth it to you.

I love you so much and I want to see you healed and whole. Keep trusting me and I promise it that I will make it worth it to you.

The wound of lies...

My prayer:

Ok God. I think I finally see it the hole, the dark wound at the core of me that I have not been willing to see, let alone ask for healing. I can even see where it came from.

What I can't see is how to get rid of it. It does not make logical sense so I can't reason it away. I have talked through all the causes of it and it is still there.

I can't heal this one God. I can't do anything about it. My only hope is your miraculous healing power. God I give up the ugly darkness to you and pray and ask that you heal me. Not because I deserve it, because I don't deserve it. But I ask in your love for me.

Now that I see it I don't want it in me for another minute. Please help heal what I cannot.

What God Said Tonight:

The hurt, the wound was formed out of lies. Lies that were told to you and lies that you believed about yourself. Lies only have power in isolation. Lies cannot stand up to the light of the truth.

The truth is you are my child and that makes you precious and wonderful.

I have allowed you to keep up the walls and keep people out because you thought you needed it. You thought it was keeping you safe. All the walls were really doing was keeping the lie in isolation where it could grow.

It is time for you to shine the truth on the lies and receive all that I have for you. I have great blessings that have been waiting for this time of healing.

Rest in me, I will heal you, I will fill the place where the wound has been. I will make you whole. In your wholeness, you will finally be able to receive all that I have been holding on for you.

Grace and love...

My prayer:

I saw something pretty powerful tonight God. I saw the power of grace in action.

True grace, true acceptance, love and support of another person, regardless of what they have done or not done...there is a powerful beauty in that.

When people really experience you grace, it can change their life. It can change the world. Our only real hope, my only real hope is in your grace.

Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

Grace is a product of my love for you. I have no other way to be with you except through grace. And, I so desperately want to be with you.

My love for you, my desire to be in your life is so strong. Grace is the bridge that allows us to be together.

I love you. I give you grace as a gift for us both.

Deception...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I had another one of those expereinces today where I could see so clearly how someone was sabotaging their own life.

They had created a view of who they are and what was happening in their life that was not true, not what the people around them were experiencing but they were so convinced that they were the "victim" in the situation that they walked away from what could have been a great opportunity. And the real shame of it is, if they don't get better clarity, they will repeat the same thing everywhere they go.

This is another one of those circumstances where it is so easy to see this from the outside but the person is completely blind to it.

When I see it, I start to really wonder if there are parts of me or my life that I have a similar blind spot and am sabotaging myself. Are some of the "tough" times that I go through nothing more than my own fabrication out of my own blindness?

God, I pray and ask for clarity of vision for myself and those around me. God, if I am deceiving myself and not seeing clearly, I ask that you remove the deception and bring clarity to my vision. Help me to see the reality of my life so I can see the things that need to change and come to you for help in changing them.

Don't let me be my own worst enemy.

What God Said Tonight:

What matters more than how you see yourself is how I see you. That is truly the only opinion tat maters. I see you in all of your imperfection and love you anyway. I see you covered in m sacrifice and find you perfect. I see you trying, which counts for a lot. I see you as my true child and precious to me.

I will heal you. I will refine you. I will shake out the things in you that have come from living in a less than perfect world. I will do all of that because I love you.

I will make sure you see what you need to see when you need to see it. Your trust in me to reveal all that you need to know is where your assurance comes from.

Your worries of deception are not unfounded. You live in a world that is full of deception both from within and without. But I am the truth. You can trust in my truth. There is no deception that is stronger than my truth.

Keep your eyes open and trust me.
