Seek the truth...

 

My prayer:

What an amazing life you have given me Lord. Thank you for bringing me through every struggle of the week. Thank you for the rest and celebration of this weekend. Thank you for all that you are healing in me. I am grateful and I am anxious to see what you have for us this week.

What God Said Tonight:

Seek the truth in your heart tonight. Look within yourself and find the truth of where you are and where  you need to be. I am here, loving you, choosing you. 

Go, now and seek the truth within yourself of who you are and who you want to be. Search your heart and find those areas that are not  edifying and do not further my Kingdom and throw them out. Don't wait for approval or guidance if you already know.

I love you, just as you are. But I also know your potential and I love that potential as well.

The opposite...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for all of your help throughout the week last week God. You blessed me in new ways every day. You are so good to me and I am so grateful! We had our challenges too. I am not forgetting those. But the challenges make the blessings even sweeter.

I am anxious to hear your voice tonight God.

What God Said Tonight:

Light in the darkness and peace in the chaos. I am what you need and often the opposite of what you are experiencing. 

I am your antivenom when you are bitten by the evil of this world. I am the cure to your illness. I am the solution to every problem. 

Reach out to me. Ask me for you help. You will not be disappointed. I love you now and forever.

Hindsight...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for the rest this weekend Lord. I guess I must have needed it. You know what tomorrow will bring much more than I do. I pray for your will to be acdomplished, on earth as it is in heaven. I pray for your perfect will in my life. I choose you, today and every day Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

The challenge of today and of tomorrow seems overwhelming It seems like more than you can face. But it is no more overwhelming that the challenge of yesterday that we faced and conquered and in hindsight, seems like nothing. 

This challenge, in hindsight, will look like nothing too. It seems hard, because it has been around for so long but that only means we are that much closer to your victory. Do not lose hope. Do not lose faith. I will see you through this, as I have every other challenge. 

I love you and I have a plan on your life that has not been moved or forgotten. I love you my child, now and forever.

Receive...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for an amazing week God. Your provision on my life, the way you provide for me, is miraculous. Every victory is yours God. It is clearly you working in my life and I am so grateful!

Thank you for hearing my prayers from earlier tonight for those who I have not seen. I pray that while I might be absent from their lives for a while, I know you never are. I pray that your presence be tangible to them tonight God. Blanket them in your peace and love so there is no doubt in their spirit or soul that you are God and that you love them.

What God Said Tonight:

My arms are open and filled with gifts for you. You can receive them all or you can choose those that you think you deserve. 

I love you with a love that knows no bounds. My gifts are a result of that love. My gifts are not a result of what you have done. Your deeds and your acts, no matter how good, could not warrant the very least of my gifts for you. 

Receive all I have for  you. Do not limit the gift by refusing to receive it. Open your arms wide and receive. It is a glory to me and a great joy. 

I love you now and forever my child.

Victory...

 

My prayer:

A beautiful day and a victorious week Lord. Thank you for defending your people. Thank you for showing me a path forward free from the pain and attacks. Thank you for the peace and hope that you provide, every day. I am grateful to be your disciple and your child. 

What God Said Tonight:

Victory is a short lived moment but a chain of victories can increase you confidence. It can make you believe that you can be victorious. 

With me, every battle is the chance for victory. I will see you victorious in every situation. Eventually, you will trust that. Every victory builds that trust. 

If you can just remember that it is not you fighting the battle it is me and that I can't lose because I have already won the war, if you can truly learn and believe that, you will never worry about losing or being crushed by your enemy again. 

The enemy will keep fighting. It is all he has left. But he cannot win. The end is already determined. Please remember. It is my battle and it is a battle I have already won. You can claim that victory, even before you see it. 

I love you my child. Now and forever.

Broken chains...

 

My prayer:

Amazing God. Thank you for everything you are teaching me right now. This has been a tremendous time of learning and growing like I have not experienced in a while. I know I have more to learn because the challenges keep coming, but I also know that you are in it with me and leading me, guiding me and teaching me, so I can't lose. 

Love you SO MUCH LORD!!!

What God Said Tonight:

There are some chains that have been binding you, keeping you back in some areas of your life. It is time to break those off. 

These chains are broken in prayer and wisdom. These chains are broken as a result of you knowing the authority you have. This time is growing that confidence in the authority I have given you. It won't take long. 

I love you my child. Now and forever.

Reality of life with God...

 

My prayer:

You have risen! That is the point of the celebration today. We get to celebrate together that you gave your life, fought Satan and hell, won, rose again, and now have redeemed us, your children. That is really too much to comprehend. I was raised with the knowledge of it so I think I somewhat take it for granted. But if I take the time to stop and truly consider it all, it is unbelievable.

Thank you for loving us enough to sacrifice so much, just so we could be saved. There will never be enough words, enough gratitude, enough thankfulness to merit all that you have done. 

You are my everything Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

I choose you, my child and now that you choose me, I am able to pour out  on you blessings to overflow. I am able to teach you when you have an ear to hear. I am able to speak to you when you quiet yourself to listen. 

The opportunity for our relationship was made on that fateful day when the old covenant was fulfilled and the new covenant went into effect. However, the reality of life together requires more than just the opportunity. It requires the effort. 

It requires that you reach out, that you receive, that you listen, and that you take time for our relationship to grow and develop. I will meet you every time. Every time you want to talk, you want me to listen, you want to learn, every time, I will be there. But don't forget to take that step. Don't forget to make the time. 

I will not force you, ever. Which means I need you to reach out first.
