Struggles...

My prayer:

There are some struggles I can understand. I may not like going through them, but I can understand why they are there. I can understand how good can come out of them. Somehow, that makes it easier than the struggles that just go on and on and nothing seems to make it better. Those are the ones that seem so senseless and are so hard to get through. 

God give me strength, peace, direction and if you are willing, give me understanding of this struggle. And, as soon as you are ready, please give me relief and complete healing.

Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

NO struggle is ever wasted. The long ones, in particular, are the ones that teach you things about yourself and about me. They are the ones that have you seeking me at midnight and searching out deeper truths. 

I don't mean to make light of it. The pain is very real. The suffering is not something I would ever choose for you. But, in this world, you will have trials, tribulation, suffering. I am working on changing that. Soon there will be a new heaven and a new earth where those truths no longer apply. But, for as long as we are in this world, you will have my help, my strength, my peace and my deliverance. 

Even when you think I have forgotten your suffering, I won't let you down. I feel every hurt and every struggle as deeply as you. I took them on for you. I will never forget and I will never turn my back on you. See how I work it all for your good. Always and forever my love.

More blessed...

My prayer:

Today sure turned out better than I was expecting it to. THANK YOU JESUS! As you know, I was kind of dreading it and spent a fair amount of time this morning asking for your help. And you really showed up God. Not in the way I expected, but as always in a way that was even better. 

That is one of the joys of living this life with you. Just when I think all is lost, you show up and show me new life and new hope from a totally unexpected direction! Thank you thank you thank you!

What God Said Tonight:

A house is a palace to a man who is living on the street. Much of life and the experience of life is related to your perception. 

I have great things for you. Things that others will look at and say, "Wow! Look how blessed she is!!!" But, for you, it will be just the next step in the process and it will be harder to see the true magnificence of it. 

Once in a while, take a step back from your life and from yourself and imagine what it looks like to others. I bet you will find that you are more blessed than you ever realized. 

I love you.

Dawn...

My prayer:

Wisdom and guidance God. I need it more now than ever before. I am feeling that extreme uncomfortableness that proceeds great change but I have no idea what the change should be. 

I only want your will for my life. I don't want to chase rainbows that take me away from your plan. 

I am yours. I am all yours. Show me what is next. Show me when to move. I will follow your lead. Please lead me.

What God Said Tonight:

Dawn is different. The start of a new thing is seldom something that happens all at once. It is usually gradual like the sun coming over the horizon. You first see a shaft of light, then a bit more, then a bit more and before you know it, the sky is ablaze with light. You don't think about making dawn happen. It is there and before you know it, you are in a new day. 

I don't need you to do much. The change is coming and you will see the path. It will be obvious. What you can do in the mean time is remember your passion. Remember all of the things you said you would do. Remember every lost dream and give them life again. 

I will bring you some unexpectedies in this season. I will bring you some opportunities that speak to the dreams of your youth. Long forgotten in your mind but still present in your heart. I love you.

Walking away...

My prayer:

Thank you for healing me! Thank you for the surprise gifts today too!! You are so wonderful God. You make life worth living. I know each day has its struggles but I am SO GRATEFUL I don't have to face them alone, without you. I couldn't do it. I wouldn't want to try.

What God Said Tonight:

Walking away from something is never easy but walking toward something is almost always exciting. Live a life of walking toward your next adventure, blessing, challenge, joy. 

I will lead you. 

But never get stuck holding onto the things that don't let you move forward. There is death in that. There is life in letting go and moving forward. 

I love you and we have many more adventures to make.

Restoration...

My prayer:

I need your healing power tonight God. If there is something to learn with it too, fantastic. I am open and listening. But, I really need your healing too. Thank you for taking our sickness. Thank you for the gift of healing. 

I bind any evil and it's attachments and cast them to the pit of hell in the name of Jesus Christ. God, kill this thing at the root. Fill me with your Holy Spirit so there no room for them to return. Thank you Jesus!

What God Said Tonight:

Healing is yours. Restoration is yours. Manifestation is yours. Wholeness is yours. 

I love you and I will restore you, now.

The wave of love...

My prayer:

Awesome God. It sure seems like there is a lot more opposition to you these days. Tonight's broadcast, that was the first time we had people actually trying to start problems. How can people be against you? You are love. How can people be against love? 

I know it is not that simple and I know a lot of people have been hurt by people doing things "in your name." I hate that we are not better reflections of your love so people can see you more clearly. 

I guess that is my prayer God. I pray that a new revelation of your love be launched tonight. Let a wave of your love cover the world. Let people who have never known you love, experience it for the first time. Let people who know you love get a fresh revelation of it. 

Thank you Jesus!

What God Said Tonight:

Love, like a flood, being poured out on the world. I will show my love in every corner and to every person. It is up to them to receive it, but I promise to you tonight, I will show them. 

I love you sweet child. Ride the wave of love.

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.
