Father God...

My prayer:

Thank you for all of your help today God! You took so many situations that I was dreading and smoothed them out, turning them for my good.

I don't know why it still surprises me. You do it for me all of the time. You promise it to us. And still, every time you do it, I stand in awe.

It is one of those wonderful things about you that makes no sense, but I am SO GRATEFUL for. Thank you for always taking care of me.

What God Said Tonight:

The Father part of me is more than just a name. What father, given the ability to do so, would not move heaven and earth to make life good for his son or daughter? It is in a father's inherent make up to take care of things and situations for their kids. It is inherent in me to take care of you.

My love for you, my children, goes beyond your ability to imagine. I will always take care of you. No matter what the situation looks like, I am right here. I will not let you fall. I will be with you in every last moment, working things for your good every step of the way.

Now, you see me working. Now, it is all happening very fast. There may be times, when I can't move things in your favor quite as fast. It is in those times that I ask you to remember today. It is in those times that I ask you to trust that my word to you is true.

I love you now and forever.

How to get clean...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I pray for your strength and courage to be in me as I face this week. I pray for your favor. I pray that my life is a testimony to others and that they see you through me.

What God Said Tonight:

I have never needed you to be perfect. I have never needed you to be right. I have only needed you to love and seek me.

I am your covering and I am your salvation. I am that thing that makes you right. I am what makes you whole. I am what makes you clean. I don't need you to be clean before you come to me. I don't even need you to be clean after you come to me. I only need you.

Dedicate your life to me. Direct your love toward me. Let me make every change. Let me make all things right. I am your hope and I am your friend. I will not let you down.

Trample the enemy...

My prayer:

I have a thousand stray thoughts running through my mind tonight God. I hope you can hear my heart because my mind is not doing a very good job of organizing it all.

SO many things to be grateful for. SO many things to ask your help with. SO many things that we need direction on. Lifting it all up to you tonight God.

Thank you for being my everything.

What God Said Tonight:

I am going to turn your defeat into triumph. I am going to turn your challenge into victory. I am going to take all of those things that are fighting you and I will place them under your feet to trample on as you run to your promised land.

I am a God who loves you and I will use even those things that were maliciously designed to hurt you... those are the things that will show you your greatest victory. I love you.

Jesus the healer...

My prayer:

Amazing Jesus, healer, sacrifice. I pray your healing power be active in me, now. I thank you that you took my sickness and pain upon you so that I can be healed. I receive your precious and glorious gift, right now.

What God Said Tonight:

I have anointed you to be a conduit, a testimony, of my healing power. I have shown you great healing miracles.

I do not pick favorites with healing. My healing is for all of my children. For every sickness. One sickness is not more important or more difficult than another. A sick heart is as worthy of my healing power as is cancer.

I have come to heal. I have come to love. I have come to see you whole.

The design...

My prayer:

Awesome Father, thank you for this week and all that you have shown me, all that you have taught me and all that you have blessed me with. I am excited about this new level of knowing you. I love you with all that I have.

What God Said Tonight:

The design, the plan is not complicated but it is beautiful.

I have designed your reality so that you are free to live in this world without the constraints of sin. I have designed the world so that you can be reconciled with me forever here on earth and one day in heaven. I have designed a purpose for you and your life that serves the world, the universe and all of eternity.

You are so valuable to me and you are worth every sacrifice I have made. I love you beyond compare.

Companions on the journey...

My prayer:

Sweet  Father. Am I doing what you would want me to do? Is my life pleasing to you? Have I grown and matured like you imagined? I know that I have a long way to go in this Christ like journey but, how am I doing in your eyes?

What God Said Tonight:

Life, your life is not like a class where you get a passing grade. Life is a journey to be experienced.

I am not your judge on the journey, I am your guide. I removed the need for judgement for you. I took on your judgement on the cross. That leaves only love and friendship between us.

That leaves us to be companions on the journey. 

Wind...

My prayer:

Today did its best to chew me up and spit me out. Thank you for your strength and peace throughout the assault. I am so grateful that I had you to turn to all day.

And now that I have been talking all day and you in your wonderfulness have been listening all day, it is time to switch it around. What do you want to talk about? I am here to listen.

What God Said Tonight:

The wind that blows can bring in the storm or it can take it away. The wind's purpose is to move things.We do not blame the wind for the storm and we do not give it credit when the storm passes. It is the vehicle for change.

There are things in your life right now that you may not enjoy but they are the vehicle for your change. They will not last. Once they have blown in the change and blown out the old, the vehicle will be gone.

Don't get hung up on the vehicle. Recognize it for its purpose.
