Already won...

 

My prayer:

I am praying for my friend tonight God. She is in a horrible situation and we don't see the way out. We need you God. Pour out your favor on her life. Surround her with your protection. And God, as you do so often, make a way where there seems to be no way. 

I leave her in your hands with faith and confidence.

What God Said Tonight:

There is always a way forward. It may be hidden from you but that does not mean that it isn't there. 

There is no problem, issue, or challenge on this earth that was not already overcome by the blood of my sacrifice for you life. I have already paid every debt and I have already defeated every enemy. 

This time, the situation, was already fought and won in my resurrection. Sleep tonight confident that I have already won this battle. 

I love you now and forever.

Blow up the rocks...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. Thank you for all that you are doing and for every plan and purpose you have. Thank you for bringing me through the worst of the storm and into a season, or at least a couple of days, where the wind is blowing a little less hard and the snow is a little less thick. 

You are amazing and I am very grateful for you in my life.

What God Said Tonight:

Look through the calm waters around you and see the rocks. They are there and you may choose to move them or avoid them but it is good to know where they are. Know where the rocks are and plan accordingly. 

Then, if you want to be really brave, trust me to break the rocks apart and you can go straight through them. That choice takes courage and trust, but if you are ready, if you are up for it, I will blow out the rocks in your way and we can move forward, unimpeded. 

I love you sweet daughter. Let me blow up the rocks.

Light of the world...

 

My prayer:

A day of rest God, and I needed it. Thank you. 

The only thing on my prayer list tonight is the conflict and killing going on in the world. Awesome Father, I pray your will be done. It is so hard to see what we do to each other here on earth. I pray your peace and divine sovereignty reign.

What God Said Tonight:

A light at the end of the tunnel, a light on the hill. Follow the light and you will find the peace. 

A people living in darkness can see the light more clearly sometimes. They may not understand it but they can see it. Tell them to follow that light and they will be free. 

I have come to set the captives free and I am the light of the world. Do not forget or lose track of that truth. 

I love you now and forever.

Guide and guard...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. Thank you for your help again today. I am worn out but I feel like we accomplished some good things today. Tonight, I want nothing more than to be with you and hear your voice.

What God Said Tonight:

Some walls keep you from going out and some walls protect you from what is trying to get in. A wall is not always a bad thing, not always something that needs to come down. 

Sometimes a wall is there for a reason and a season. 

I will protect from the things trying to hurt you. I will lead you into the things I have intended for you. I will be your guide and your guard.

I love you now and forever my child.

Stress tentacles...

 

My prayer:

Sweet Father. I did not handle today very well. I let the chaos and stress get into my mind. I forgot who is in charge and just now, coming to you, I realize I did not once today ask for your help. How is that possible? I know, absolutely, without a doubt that you help when we ask...and yet I never asked. 

I am sorry God. I know better but today, I didn't do better. I will try to remember better tomorrow.

What God Said Tonight:

The world got its tentacles around you today but it cannot hold you. Your main issue today is you convinced yourself that you could do it, you could handle it, if you just tried a little harder. The truth is, you can handle it but not by trying harder but by trusting me more. Lean on me, turn to me, cry out to me, and I will always come. 

When the stress rolls back in, trying to take your peace. Remember this moment and lean back on me. Let me take the burden and let me show you the way through. 

I love you and you were not meant to fight these battles on your own.

Remove the stone...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. Thank you for a wonderful, peaceful, and restful day. I know that not everyone had that privilege today. I am grateful that I did.

There is so many truly horrible things happening right now God and then there are so many truly wonderful things happening in the midst of the horrible. That is the thing. We live in this world where horrible things happen but we live in it with you, the source of all good things. 

Thank you for giving us good, beautiful, and wonderful things in the middle of the mess in this world.

What God Said Tonight:

A wall may seem like an impenetrable barrier but a wall is only made of individual stones. Remove just one stone and the whole can tumble. 

I see that there is a barrier in front of you but it is not as intimidating as you might think. It is actually quite fragile and if we just remove that one brick, that one stone, the whole thing will tumble and you will see what I have waiting for you.

I love you and I will remove that stone.

Next danger...

 

My prayer:

Thank you God for your peace in the middle of chaos today. There was no way of getting through this day without your peace. Thank you for protecting and making a way out for my friend. 

My prayers turn to the chaos on a global level tonight God. I pray your protection and peace over eastern Europe and Russia. I pray that the world see your glory. Above all, I pray your will is done.

You are the God of answered prayers whether it be getting me through a hard day or getting our world through a hard day. You, God, are the answer.

What God Said Tonight:

That which is written cannot be changed but your experience of  it can be. 

I am your redeemer and protector. Stay with me, cling to me and I will walk you through every conflict with peace and uninjured. Come, grab a hold of me and I will put my arm around you as we walk through this next danger.
