Conflict...

 

My prayer

Amazing God. I can't believe I am still praying about the same thing. This problem, this conflict just keeps hanging on. It changes shape, but it is not going away and it is exhausting.

I pray God that your peace rule in my life. I pray that your peace overwhelm the conflict. I ask that you resolve this conflict.

What God Said Tonight:

This conflict is not what it seems. It is not as simple as it appears. This conflict has roots to it that you cannot know and you cannot fix. 

I am your God and I will see you triumph over the conflict. I will see you, the peacemaker. 

This conflict is not going to break you. It will be broken off of you. Do not own it. Trust it with me. 

I love you my child.

The purpose of problems...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. I did my best last week to be your reflection of peace in the chaos. I don't think I did a very good job. I think that I may have been calm and reflecting peace in the direct conflict, when it was over, when the crisis took a break, the stress definitely showed through. I also know that i so often tried to handle it all on my own and forgot that I could ask your help. In the heat of it, in the fire, I forgot I could call out to you. I was so focused on the situation, I forgot that you are the solution to every situation. 

I head back into it tomorrow with new opportunities to do better. I pray in advance for your help. In every situation. In every challenge, I pray for your help and your will to be done.

What God Said Tonight:

I didn't ask you to solve the problem. I asked you to reflect my peace. I didn't ask you to bring resolution. I asked you to reflect my peace. I didn't even ask you to create peace in the situation. I asked you to reflect my peace. 

Sometimes my children, you make things so much harder on yourselves than you need to. I don't expect you to solve all the problems. They are  too many and they are too big. I only expect and want you to be what shows the world that I am bigger than that problem...and that you know it. 

That is how you reflect the peace. When the world sees that nothing can shake you, that becomes very interesting. They wonder how you do it. Some will even ask. Then you can tell them about me, my power, my love, that gives you the assurance that you live under each day. 

The problems are not about bringing you harm or stress. They are about showing a world that there is a different and better way to live. A way that allows you to have peace and joy in the midst of chaos, pain, and sorrow. You are a child of God and with that comes great privileges and blessings. The world needs to know that.

God's peace...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. I have a pretty tough challenge coming up tomorrow and I need your help. I need to find the peaceful path forward in a situation where there is no peace currently. 

I pray that your peace reign in this situation. I pray that you soften the hearts of the people involved that they find a way to forgive and move forward. 

I know that this will not happen without your intervention and your help. Thank you for being my everlasting help Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

Peace, true peace, is never the result of circumstances. That kind of peace that comes from everything going well, is a fragile peace and it quickly evaporates when the smallest thing changes those circumstances. 

My peace passes all understanding. My peace is present and active no matter the circumstance. 

I am your peace my daughter. Reflect my peace tomorrow and it will change the circumstances and change the hearts of those involved. 

I love yo now and forever my child.

Who you walk with...

 

My prayer:

Amazing Father. Thank you for bringing me through the challenges of this week. There were times where things looked so bleak and each time, you showed me the path forward. I don't know what I would do without you. Without your guidance, your favor and your love, my life would be nothing but a miserable struggle. Thank you for choosing me. I will choose you today and always.

What God Said Tonight:

There are so many paths, so many ways to go on this journey. Some lead you up and some down. Some lead you toward your goal and some away. But more important than the path you take is who you choose to take the path with. 

If you are on a path with many challenges, you will want to walk with someone who can help you through the challenges. If you are on a path with few challenges, you will want to walk with someone who you can enjoy the time. 

I am your partner, your guide, your friend on every path. We will meet every challenge and we will enjoy every step, as long as we are walking the path together. You have chosen to walk the path of my Kingdom. All else is easy. 

I love you now and forever my child.

Listen and hear...

 

My prayer:

Thank you Lord for the peace, the rest, and the new levels of understanding that you brought this weekend. You are amazing and life with you is more than I could have hoped for. Now, if there is anything that you want to say, I am here to hear you and record it to the best of my abilities. Help me not to mess it up.

What God Said Tonight:

I speak but not everyone will listen. I speak but many will not hear. My Word is alive and active and flowing in so many different ways and still so many feel lost without direction or understanding. 

You will hear this and you will either discard it or you will take it in. 

You will know my voice when it brings peace with it. You will know my voice when it agrees with what I have written out for you. You will know my voice, if you are my child. It will be familiar. It will be love. 

I love you, now and forever and I will keep speaking. Your choice is to listen and hear, or not. 

Receive...

 

My prayer:

You are incredible God. A day of blessings and favor. Living life with you is indescribable. No one would believe it. I pray that every one of your children receive a special awareness of your presence tonight. I pray that they experience you in a new or elevated way. I pray that you are more real to them tonight than you have ever been. 

I love you God, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

I love you. I have heard your prayer. I will respond. Prepare the people to receive. 

Light in darkness...

 

My prayer:

Awesome Father. I love this life that you have given me. I love the joy, the peace, the love and I love the challenges, the growth, and the lessons. As long as I can live every moment of this life with you, it is good. 

Thank you for loving me and for all that you are and all that you do.

What God Said Tonight:

There is light. Even in the darkest of times there is light. If you can look for and focus on the light, the darkness will dissipate. It will lose its strength. It will lose its power. 

One spark of light can be seen in the thickest of darkness. One spot of darkness has little to no effect on a bright light. Light will win over darkness, every time. 

I love you my daughter and I encourage you, stay focused on my light and the darkness will fade to powerless nothingness.
