Storms...

My prayer:

I love you. I am grateful for you. I need you. I worship you. Now and forever God.

What God Said Tonight:

Waiting through the storm is never fun but you can find ways to wait with joy. A storm is a great excuse to hibernate with a good book. A storm is a great excuse to cozy up with a fire. A storm, while noisy and frightening, can bring a lot of good as well. 

The same is true of storms in your life. They are loud and frightening but if you wait them out, they will bring growth and joy to your life. I am with you in every storm.  I will not let it destroy you. Wait out the storm with me and let's see what the sun brings. 

I love you, now and forever.

Triggers...

My prayer:

I still feel like I am missing something important God. I now I keep bringing variations of this same theme to you. And you have been great, trying to help me refocus on what is important. But, truth is, I can only do it for short periods of time and then I am right back here, feeling like something is missing and that my life is missing purpose. 

I don't know what I need but I know I can't do it myself. I ask for your help, again, Lord.

Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

I don't expect you to heal yourself. I took stripes on my back for your healing. I don't expect you to know and implement the answers to life's problems on your own. Then, you would not need me. 

There are a couple of triggers that take you back to the place of disappointment. Disappointment in yourself, in the world, in life. Those triggers are not fully obvious to you. My mandate and my will is that those areas in you be healed. 

As you open up to that healing, as you receive it, you will see new doors and you will lose the hole in your spirit. It is time.

Grace, love, peace...

My prayer:

Found myself doing those things that I hate today God. 

My attitude was not good, my words were not good, the way I treated at least some people, was also, not good. I am sorry that I did not do a better job with this day. 

I ask for your healing, your grace and your love to be fully present in me tonight.

What God Said Tonight:

Grace, my grace is not something that runs out. My grace is yours. I bought it with my blood and I give it to you freely. It is yours, now and forever.

My love, that was yours before you were born. You were created from my love and for my love. It is deeply rooted in you and will never be separated. 

My peace, that is a gift I can give you tonight. Rest in the peace that I am God and I can turn all things for your good. Even the things that you mess up. 

I love you daughter. Now and forever.

Life is hard...

My prayer:

What an amazing gift you gave me tonight God! Thank you for that amazing encouragement and confirmation. It was so unexpected. I wasn't even looking for it but you plopped it down right in front of me. You are so good, kind, and generous! You give me what I need even when I don't realize I need it. You are a GOOD GOOD GOD!

What God Said Tonight:

It is not up to you to change the world. I am already working on that. It is up to you to love people through it. 

Somewhere, some people got an idea that having me in your life simplifies life. I am here to say that is unequivocally not true. 

Life is hard for everyone. No one gets a free ride, no matter what. As long as there is sin earth, death has a stronghold.

I don't make your life easy but I do make your life worth it. I will give you joy and peace in the middle of the chaos. I will see you safe all the days of your life. 

Purpose...

My prayer:

Today was a great day God but for some reason tonight I am feeling discouraged and purposeless. Maybe it is just the Sunday night blues. Monday is not looking real attractive right now. But who knows what tomorrow will bring. You might have some great surprises. You sure had a lot of them last week. 

I pray and ask for your direction, you guidance and your fire in me God.

What God Said Tonight:

Purpose. Your purpose on this earth is pretty straightforward. You are to reflect me and my love. Where you work, what you do is really secondary to that. 

Focus all your effort on reflecting my love and being the physical representation of my love here on earth. Do that and all the rest will fall into place. 

Study my love. Receive my love. Then, give it away, to everyone. Especially to those who don't know me. Spread my love and you will be in your perfect purpose. 

Holy warrior...

My prayer:

Thank you for your healing power God. Thank you particularly for healing me tonight. 

Thank you for the insight on what has been happening. I feel like I understand the one aspect but it seems like there is a lot more. The massive influx of cancer for example. It is everywhere I turn right now. I pray for wisdom and I pray for your healing to overwhelm the influx. 

I love you. You are my healer.

What God Said Tonight:

You have been in the dessert for a long time. There is something coming that is casting a shadow. The shadow is ominous but it can't hurt you. 

I am your protection. I am your weapon. I will fight against the attacks on you and your life, your family and your friends. A Holy warrior wave is on it's way. The time to fight is near. 

I won't need your help but I will need your trust. 

I love you sweet daughter.

In heaven...

My prayer:

Sweet and amazing Father. I am enjoying your  presence tonight. I am enjoying your peace. I am enjoying your love. There is really nothing better than sitting in your presence and love. Everything else fades away. The worries, the pain, the needs, none of it matters when I can sit in the presence of the Most High God. 

We are headed into Father's Day weekend and I would ask you to give my Dad an extra hug. This will be the first Father Day that he is in heaven with you. Keep him close and loved.

What God Said Tonight:

I have love and comfort for you on earth. How much more do you think there is in heaven? Heaven is a place where blessing and miracles are a standard part of every day. When you pray, "on earth as it is in heaven" you are releasing that love, blessing and healing her on earth. 

I love you. I love your Dad. I got him.
