Faith and love...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. Thank you for a perfect day. I stand in awe of you and all that you do for me. Now, I will get quiet so I can hear what you have to say tonight:

What God Said Tonight:

I want to give you some clarity and peace. I want you to see the road ahead as I see it, from the end of the road. I want to show you that everything is truly for a reason and that nothing in your life is ever wasted, it will always serve a purpose in both your life and the lives of others. 

I want to show you all of that  but if I do, faith no longer has a place in your life. If I do, you trust the future but you don't need to trust me. 

How much better to trust that I will work everything for your good, no matter what it is. How much better to trust in me than have to know every detail of what will happen next. It is in that trust and in that faith that our relationship grows, out love for each other grows. And, at the end of everything else, that is what truly matters. In the end it is the love that is shared that truly matters. 

Knowing how everything will work out, does not increase the love. Trusting in me, does. 

I love you now and forever and I promise that everything I do is for your good. You are my precious child and I cannot let you forget that.

Solid ground...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I am so grateful you are in charge of my life. I would be pretty freaked out right now if I wasn't confident that you have everything under control. I love that I get to live a life filled with peace because of you. Thank you for making that possible.

What God Said Tonight:

A life built on solid rock is not one that you have to worry about. It is not one that will shift under your feet. Your life is built on me, the solid rock of truth. 

You need never fear. Your future is secure. Your present is solid. You are on solid ground my child. 

I love you now and forever.

Obstacles...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. Thank you for your favor and guidance today. There were some tough moments but I leaned into you and you walked me through each one of them. I don't know the details of what tomorrow has for me but I know one thing, you will be there in it with me and that is all I need.

What God Said Tonight:

Red, green, yellow, blue, the color of a things does not really matter it is the substance of the thing that matters. 

You may see barriers in your work, in your personal life, even in your spiritual life. The details of the barrier does not matter. The only thing that matters is that you will overcome that barrier with me, through me, and as a result of your relationship wit me. 

I am called the great overcomer. I can overcome any obstacle for your sake. No mountain is high enough to block my blessing you. A barrier and a challenge is truly no more than an opportunity for me to show you I am God, in every situation. 

I love you now and forever my child. Go rest and let me take care of the obstacles tomorrow.

Nature and purpose...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. What a blessing these last few days have been. Thank you for this time of rest and peace. I pray for your help as I jump back into the fray tomorrow. I pray for your favor, your wisdom, and your guidance. Above everything else, I pray that your will is done. 

What God Said Tonight:

The nature of me, of you, is  not hidden. It is written in every word, every action, and every interaction that we have. Your nature is not something that can be hidden. It is not something that should be hidden. Whether your nature takes you success or failure, letting it be known, or more rightly said, recognizing that it is known, to everyone around you, only makes it easier for me to help you with it. 

I created all of my children for a purpose. That purpose does not require perfection. It does not require that every part of your nature be made perfect. That will happen through the salvation of my son, but it is not required for your purpose to be carried out. 

You are more known than you realized and you are more loved than you realize. Starting of course with me. Keeping forging ahead, putting one foot in front of another, and we will make the destination together.

Blessings and cursings...

 

My prayer:

A wonderful day full of blessings and work. Thank you God. I know I say it a lot. I wish I had better words, better ways to tell you how much I appreciate all that you do for me. How much I appreciate this life that you have given me. Everything I can say and do, seems like not enough. 

I pray that you hear my heart and know how much it all means to me and how much I love you.

What God Said Tonight:

A danger is not dangerous if you are not there when it is. A blessing is not a blessing if you are not in position to receive it. There are things in this world that only receive their meaning when they are received. They only fulfill their purpose when they are received. 

Blessings and cursings are some of those things. Receive the blessings. Reject the cursings. Position yourself in a place where blessings are abundant and avoid the places where cursings run rampant. 

These are not my commands but rather advice that will make you living easier. I love you my child, now and forever and I want the very best of blessings in your life.

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for your favor and guidance today. I am content and trusting you. I would love to hear your voice tonight.

What God Said Tonight:

It is a celebration in the making. It is a carnival that is yet to open. I love you and I have such great things for you. Very soon, when the timing is right, and it can be celebrated in full. Without reservation. 

I love you my child, now and forever.

Pauses between the steps...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. I think I might be a little strange. For me, it is so much easier to trust you in times of change than it is when nothing seems to be changing. Movement, change, seems like a path, a journey and since I know you order my steps, I am confident that you are in control...most of the time. In times where nothing seems to change, that is when my trust can waiver.

Thank you for this season of change. Thank you for all that you are doing. I pray for help to trust, whether the change comes or not, that you are still in control and your plans for me are good.

What God Said Tonight:

It is not change or lack of change that is reflective of me moving. I can effect change through action and inaction. I can even keep you where you are through action and inaction. 

When you trust in the change you can see, you are trusting in circumstances, not truly in me. When you trust regardless of what you see, that is when you are truly trusting in my, in my sovereignty in your life. That is when the true peace comes and you can enjoy each step of the journey, even the pauses in between steps. 

I love you now and forever my child.
