Not broken...

My prayer:

This has been one of the toughest weeks of my life God. I don't know how to make sense of it. It has shaken me. Not shaken me about who you are but shaken me about what I can receive on earth. I have been blessed with seeing your healing power work effectively in my life in in the lives of those around me. This week I have not seen it in my life and I am confused. 

Thank you for the text from my friend about her experience with you healing this week. It was good to know you were still working in people's lives. But it does not feel like I was on the receiving end. Now, I don't know what I don't know. So, it could be that this all would have been much worse. I can close to going to the hospital. It could be without your intervention I would have spent the week in the hospital or ended my days here on earth. I could definitely see that as a possibility.

What I know is that you took stripes on your body so that I could be healed. What I know is that healing is the children's bread. What I know is that you have always come through for me with healing. So, I will stand on that knowledge, best as I can, believing you are going to finish this thing, quickly.

What God Said Tonight:

I am here. I have heard every prayer and cry for help. I am a loving God I am your Father. I do not turn a deaf ear to your pain. There are circumstances and situations outside of your control and outside of your ability to see them that are effecting your life right now. 

Nothing is broken though it seems as it is. Nothing is punishing you, although it can seem like it is. 

I am with you. Just a little longer now. I promise, there is a purpose.

Ask for your miracle...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I don't know what to do. This has wiped me out. I do not have enough, well, enough anything, to make this better. You are my only hope. Please help.

What God Said Tonight:

A miracle is not a miracle if it could happen any other way. I am the God of miracles I work, live, and breathe in miracles. 

The circumstance you are in is not always about what you have done, right or wrong. The circumstance can be a proving ground for my miracle. 

Don't be afraid to ask for your miracle. Your circumstance is screaming for it. Just ask.

Getting to the other side of this...

My prayer:

I really hate being sick God. Thankfully, it does not happen very often but yesterday and today have been pretty awful. I pray for rest. I pray for your healing power in me. I pray for divine health to fill me up and overtake this nastiness that has tried to settle on me. 

What God Said Tonight:

I am here. I am here. I am here.

You are not in this alone. You are not on a path to destruction. This is a slight bump. this is a hesitation, a minor roadblock, that will not stay.

Trust me to get you to the other side of this. 

Imperfect perfection...

My prayer:

Each day, I do my best to make good choices, smart choices. But even on my best day, I get a lot of it wrong. We are so imperfect God. And you love us anyway, which is amazing. But why are we so imperfect? 

Has it always been that way or has sin corrupted more than our souls? I just wish sometimes that I was better. Smarter, making better choices, more generous, more loving, just...more.

Forgive me God.

What God Said Tonight:

I ask you to consider that what you are seeing as truth right now, not real truth. It is not my truth. 

You are covered in my blood and my sacrifice. Through that veil, you are perfect. I never expected, I never made you, to be perfect on your own. If you were, you wouldn't need me. Your imperfection makes you the perfect child for me. As long as you are less than perfect on your own, you will know your need for me. If you were somehow able to find perfection on your own, you would no longer see your need for me and you could easily wander away. 

Your imperfection is what keeps you close to me. My sacrifice is what makes you perfect in spite of what you do, or don't do. 

I love you. Do not despise either the imperfection or the perfection in you. Both have a purpose and a meaning. Both are part of what keeps us as one. 

Hearing...

My prayer:

God I pray for understanding where there is confusion and misperception. I pray for truth to be released in this world. We seem to have lost truth and honesty. There is so much misinformation and good, well meaning people hear it and start making decisions and actions based on bad information.

I ask that you give us a greater discernment for truth God. Help us to understand what we see. Help us to make right choices and fight the right battles, the ones you would have us fight. 

Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

Your brain is a fog of massive amounts of information that is literally dumped into it every day. Sometimes, the key to discernment is to turn off the information dump for a little while. Get away from the television, the video, the online news, the social media, and just get quiet. 

See what you hear when the world isn't shouting in your ear. You might be surprised how simple it all is when the only voices you hear are yours and mine. 

I love you my child.

Seeking God's voice...

My prayer:

Awesome God, I had a prayer request that I ask you to speak to your people in a way they can understand. You know this is a prayer near and dear to my heart. I see so many people desperate to hear your voice God and for what ever reason, they are not hearing you right now. 

I ask Father, speak to your people. Help them understand. If you are already speaking, help them to hear. We need you Father. Just to make it through one day in the world, we need you.

I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ who died so that we could have a personal relationship with you.

What God Said Tonight:

There is something in the world today that is trying to silence my voice. It is nearing the end and satan is pulling out all of the stops. 

I know that makes it harder on you, my children, but keep seeking, I am still here. Keep listening, I am still speaking. Keep trusting that no matter what satan throws your way, I and therefore you, win in the end. 

I love you and I will see you victorious with me. Hold on. 

Stretch for your blessing...

My prayer:

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU GOD!!! You bless me like crazy! I can't wait for this next adventure and love that I get to take it with you and my mom! I am too excited to think about much else tonight. I am so grateful!

What God Said Tonight:

A blessing often goes unrealized. Not because I haven't given it but because you haven't received it. 

Sometimes it takes a little courage to jump into to something new but if you do, you will find your blessing there. If you take a chance with me, I can bring you great joy. Stretch, just a little beyond your comfort zone and you will find me waiting with a blessing and a smile. 

I love you child.
