Don't stop now...

My prayer:

Wooof. I am full God. SO much to deal with, handle, do. My brain is still racing but the rest of me is completely worn out. I pray and ask for peace and rest tonight and you continued help tomorrow to handle whatever you have got for me. I love you and I know that all things are possible in Christ.

What God Said Tonight:

I haven't waited all of this time to let go now. I haven't waited all this time to stop now. Your journey and your purpose is building, growing, and on track. 

Lean on me in the hard times. Rejoice in the good times. But always remember we are in this together and there is literally a purpose for every last thing in your life. 

My heart is in your heart and your heart is in mine. Forever together.

Resting vs. hiding...

My prayer:

I don't have any words tonight God but I have ears. What is on your mind?

What God Said Tonight:

There is a difference between resting and hiding. Your rest is needed. Your hiding is destructive. 

Find that passion and spark that will keep you moving. Remind yourself of the people you love. Don't let the season overpower you. 

I have rainbows of color to brighten your day and joy that comes up at unexpected times. Keep yourself open and available to receive it all. I love you.

Blanket of darkness...

My prayer:

Awesome God. There seems to be a blanket of depression on your people right now, including me. 

I pray and come against that depression and I tell depression, you must shatter and disappear in the name of Jesus Christ. You are a weapon of the enemy and you have no place in the lives of God's kids. God rebuke depression in the name of Jesus. I release your joy over us God. Let it fill every corner leaving no room for depression to return.

Thank you Father.

What God Said Tonight:

The darkness of the enemy is like a blanket covering the world but it cannot and will not stay. The fall of darkness is a temporary season, it just feels like it will last forever. 

Hold on and continue to use the spiritual weapons I have given you. Your victory is assured. 

Nothing can hold my child for long. except for me. I love you.

Walking with God...

My prayer:

Thank you God. You took care of everything just like  you said you would. Sitting safe and sound in a warm home tonight and appreciating the things that I often take for granted. 

Thank you for everything.

What God Said Tonight:

Walking alone through life is dark and lonely. Walking with me through life you will always find joy, color, life. 

I love you and I am I am breath in your lungs and sun on your face. Everywhere you are, I am there. Everyone you love, I love. 

Love is contagious and is waiting for you. 

You belong...

My prayer:

I have done a whole lot of complaining to you lately God and not enough worshiping and praising you. I bet if I turn that ratio around and spend more time worshiping and less complaining I will be a lot better off. 

Thank you for all of your help today. Thank you for repeated reminders that you are taking care of everything. You are the BEST Father! You are an amazing healer, teacher, brother, and Lord too but tonight, I am most aware of what a great Father you are. 

You are always there for me, even when I don't deserve it. You always take care of me. You always defend me. You make sure I have everything I need, just when I need it. And, most of all, you love me like crazy and will never stop, no matter what. 

I am so grateful for you Father!

What God Said Tonight:

I have got you carved in the palm of my hand and I am never letting go. 

You belong with me. You belong in my Kingdom. You belong in my heart. You belong. 

You are my family and my love. We will see eternity together. I love you now and forever my child.

No joy...

My prayer:

I am searching for the joy God. Those little moments of joy but I am having a hard time right now. So much to handle. I ask for continued help to get through this season. I know that this too shall pass. I pray for your strength to get me through until it does.

What God Said Tonight:

I love you. When you can see no other joy or goodness, remember that I love you. I will take care of you, now and always. You have many examples to look back on and I will not let you down. 

A time and a season for everything. No season too long and no season too short. Your life is in my hands.

Spotlights...

My prayer:

A whole day hiding from the world. I am not sure it was the right thing to do but it was really nice. Sometimes a break from the craziness of reality is something I need. Back to it tomorrow. I will need your help as always. I remain completely grateful for you in my life God. It is unimaginable that I could face one moment of one day without you. 

What God Said Tonight:

Spotlights point out certain things. They don't create them. Whatever the spotlight lights up was already there in the darkness, we just did not notice it. 

I bring spotlights into your life to highlight certain things that I want to help you with. But, just because I shine a light on it does not mean that I brought it to you. I am just highlighting what is already there so we can approach it together with open eyes and a strong heart. 

Know that when I highlight something in your life, it is never meant to hurt. It is always meant to start the healing process. I love you.
