God's healing...

My prayer:

Needing you in ways that I could never have predicted God. Thank you for your healing power over me. I don't understand the sickness that is after me but I understand who the healer is. Thank you for your healing power in me. I love and trust you God.

What God Said Tonight:

I have healing for you. My healing, my healing is like no other. My healing actually heals you, forever. 

Perspective...

My prayer:

Amazing Father. I feel as though I am rushing to get through things, like there is something I need to get to, but I don't know what it is. Maybe I just need a break from the rat race? Or, maybe there really is something big and wonderful on the way?

I don't know. All I know is you will take care of it, no matter what "it" is. 

Trusting you even when I don't know what I am trusting you for. Love you!

What God Said Tonight:

I have had you on trails this weekend to gain new perspective. I want to remind you that things look very different depending on where you are looking at them from. Your perspective, your view, matters very much to your experience. Perspective doesn't change truth but it does show you different aspects of truth. 

I remind you of this now because, if you are going to truly forgive and be free of all bitterness, you will have to remember that every act, every circumstance can be seen quite differently from different perspectives. Do not ever assume that your view of a thing is the only view. 

Release those around you from conforming to your perspective and learn to see from theirs. 

I love you.

Helping...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I am in kind of a weird mood tonight. Today was great. Tonight was odd. Feeling distrustful, out of sorts, just off. I think I need to stop focusing on how I feel, shut up and listen to you. God, let me hear your voice and clear up this funk.

What God Said Tonight:

You are my daughter and I keep you from harm. Sometimes that means keeping you from things you think you want to do. Not everything you want to do, even those things for which you have the best intentions, are necessary good and right for you to do. 

I need you to follow me. Sometimes when you are following me I am going to ask you to sit back and let me do my thing. That does not mean that I don't value you. That does not mean I don't love you. That only means that for that moment, what I need is for you to sit back and let me shine. 

It is true of others in your life. You feel like if you are not helping, then you are letting them down or that you are worth less. That is not true either. Sometimes the best way you can help someone is by stepping back and letting them figure it out. 

I love you. I love that you want to help. Helping sometimes does not look like what you think it does. I love you.

Battle field with God...

My prayer:

We made it God! A few bumps and bruises but we made it through this week. Thank you for all of your help. Thank you for putting me in the right place at the right time. 

My only request tonight is help with shutting my brain off a bit. I really want to relax and rest so I am ready for next week, but so far, my mind just keeps circling around and around and won't seem to stop. I pray for peace of mind tonight God.

Thank you!

What God Said Tonight:

I have made a space for you. Here in my place, with me. While you are here with me, no thing, no thought no enemy can get at you. You are safe, you are protected and you are mine. 

I have this space for you whenever you need it. I can throw the walls of protection around you and your mind with a single thought of a prayer. I know the world you are living in right now and I know the need for your protection. 

You are on a battle field and I am your ground cover and your medic. 

I love you sweet child. Rest in your spot tonight. There will be plenty more battles to fight tomorrow.

Wait on God...

My prayer:

The challenges of today almost beat me, but not quite. Thank you for your help. I am in that season again where if I look too far ahead, I will get completely overwhelmed. I have to focus on what is in front of me and trust that you will work out the bigger picture. Help me God to stay focused on that. When chaos is raining down on my life, it can be hard to remember that simple instruction. I love you and need you as much as I ever have.

What God Said Tonight:

Wait on me in the rush of life. It is going to be uncomfortable but it won't matter to us. We will weather the storm and fly. 

What can I do...

My prayer:

We MADE it God! Today was not easy, but with your help, we made it through and it seemed to all go well. 

I must sound like a broken record sometimes but, thank you. You are so good to me and you truly destine me to succeed. I am very grateful and wish I had new and better words to thank you with. Words really are not enough. 

What more can I do to let you know how much I appreciate you? What can I do for the God of all creation to let you know how much I love you?

What God Said Tonight:

You love me, you appreciate me through many ways, My most favorite is when you show love to "the least of these". When you show love to someone who can do nothing for you. When you show love to the unloveable. 

That is a greater blessing to me than all the money in the world. The way you treat others shows me your love. 

Remember when you interact with my children you are interacting with me. I am in them. See me in them and love them more than they deserve. That is what you can do.

Stop hiding...

My prayer:

Watching you take care of your children is a true privilege God. 

Thank you for supplying the needs of at least two friends who needed you so much yesterday and today. I love watching you work. I love your miracles, large and small. I love how time and time again, our faith in you is proven to be right. 

You are amazing and a wonderful Father!

What God Said Tonight:

Your watching from behind a wall, afraid of what will happen if you come out. The world is a frightening place but with me on your side, with me as your covering, you do not need to fear a single thing. 

Don't hide. Stop hiding.  The world can't get at you no matter where you are because I am protecting you. You might as well come out and experience all that I have for you.
