Clarity...

My prayer:

Awesome God I pray for clarity. In a world where up is down and good and bad have lost meaning, I pray for clarity. 

When do I love and let it go and when to I stand up for you and your Kingdom principles? Or am I standing up for you when I love and let it go? 

Divisiveness is tearing our world apart and I know very well that is a direct weapon of satan. There is little he fears more than the power of unity in Christ. I know it is him sowing this divisiveness. What do I do or not do to fight back? 

Please guide and direct my path God with a clarity that cannot be denied.

What God Said Tonight:

Following me is easy. I have carved my will upon your heart. As a child of me, when you follow your heart you follow me. 

Trust what you know. Not what people tell you. Not what the internet tells you. Trust what you know in your heart. Trust what I have told you. Trust my word. 

A clarity of vision and of direction is really just a trust in me and in my will for your life. 

Do you think that anyone, the devil or anyone else, has any power to stop my will in your life? You are mine and I have you carved in the palm of my hand. I will not see you defeated and I will not see you harmed. I will see you victorious. 

Follow your heart my child. It will show you my way.

Change...

My prayer:

I don't know what to pray tonight God. Maybe tonight is a good night for listening instead of talking.

What God Said Tonight:

Rainbows are promises and a symbol of my love. As each leaf turns and each season changes, it is reminder that nothing here on this earth is meant to last. Change is the only constant. Let that comfort you in pain and let that be a reminder to cherish the times of joy. 

I say the only constant is change but that is not really accurate, I do not change. I am the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. You may learn more about me. You may draw closer to me but I do not change. I took care of you yesterday and I will take care of you today. I will take care of you for every tomorrow throughout the end of time. 

Season of deception...

My prayer:

Today was disappointing. I know that you are in charge of my life and so the fact that this opportunity fell through means that it was not meant to be and in my head, I can be thankful that you kept me from it. But, my heart, it is disappointed. 

It seemed like everything was falling into place. It seemed preordained. And then suddenly, it is over. I felt like the rug was yanked out from underneath me. That has happened a lot in this season God. When do I get to be on the other side of it all. When do I get to step into the promises?

I don't mean to whine and I am truly grateful for your guidance. 

What God Said Tonight:

A time and a season is coming when even my most precious and learned children will be fooled. Satan has spent a lot of time studying how I work and how I move. He has learned to mimic me. He has learned to fool my children with his lies and misdirection. 

In this season of deception, you must rely on the truth that you have learned in your heart. You must rely on the truth I have written in your heart. You must trust that I will not let you walk into a future that I have not ordained for you. You must trust that I will guide your footsteps. 

There is more deception to come. Do not believe the word being spoken. Do not believe what you see. Believe in me. Trust in my truth. Continue to follow my path for you and we will walk through it. We will be on the other side victorious. 

This side of a challenge always seems so long because it is all up hill and you don't know when the end is coming. Once you are there and you look back on this time, it will seem fleeting, I promise. 

I love you and you are my child. Do not let the enemy distract you or fool you with his treachery. My love, trust me and my love for you.

Don't hold me back...

My prayer:

You are amazing God! Thank you for the evidence of things moving forward today! I am SO EXCITED!!! You are my God and with you, all things truly are possible.

What God Said Tonight:

Look out to the horizon and see all the land, all the possibilities yet to come. The possibilities are endless. The destination as far as you can see and beyond. 

You will have those coming around you, curious as to where you are going. They mean no harm but they can be a distraction if you let them. Keep your eyes on the horizon and tell them they can come with you but that you can't stay here with them. Don't let your love for them, keep you from moving ahead. 

Preparation for purpose...

My prayer:

I am dreading tomorrow God. I know I should have a better attitude and if you have taught me anything in the last year, it is that I have no idea what tomorrow will bring. 

I pray that you help me find the joy and peace in tomorrow, what ever it brings. Help me to love the people around me and to be a blessing to them. Help me to make a difference for good. Help me God to matter. 

What God Said Tonight:

No verse and no song can give you the peace that you seek. The peace that you seek is a peace that comes from purpose. The peace that you seek is a peace that comes from passion. These are things that are within you. Your displacement comes from feeling like you are not walking in that purpose and that passion. 

But, to truly be prepared to walk in your passion, sometimes you need preparation in a different field. Sometimes you have to learn to find joy in harvesting corn when you know that you passion is harvesting wheat. Sometimes you have to find joy in the prison when you know that your passion is in the palace. 

I have a plan on your life and do not doubt that every place, every event, and every season is a part of that plan. 

Find your strength in me. Find your joy in me. Grow where you panted and know that a transplant is on the way.

Heaven on earth...

My prayer:

It feels like my life took a bit of a pause from the craziness today and I am very grateful. I really needed 24 hours where nothing really happened. 

Thank you for the pause God. You always give me what I need when I need it. You are a GOOD, GOOD, Father.

What God Said Tonight:

I will rock you and soothe you. I will care for you and protect you. I will keep you safe and I will see you prosper. 

A life in the shadow of my love will never leave you bored and will always be worth the struggle.

I love you now and forever my child. The future is in the future, the past is in the past and tonight, we have each other. Sounds like heaven on earth. Rest in me tonight my love.

A horrible day...

My prayer:

Today was pretty horrible God. I know I should have a positive attitude and find the good in it. I know that many people had much worse days than I did. But, none of that changes that today was horrible and the only good thing I can say about it is that it is over. 

I love you God and I pray for recovery and a new day.

What God Said Tonight:

I don't need you to put on a fake smile for me. I know how your day was. I was in it with you and not all days are filled with joy. 

Your path is still clear and unchanged. The battle of today is just that, a battle. The war is yet to be completed and yet to be won.
