Friends...

My prayer:
Awesome God I love your people! Your children that are simply seeking you out, they are so incredible! We don't always get it right...ok, we almost never get it right, but we are trying and the scars of the struggle make us each so beautiful. 


I look around me and I see some of the most amazing, talented and loving people in the world. How did that happen? I spent so many years blocking everyone out of my life. Too afraid to trust, I decided it was better to be on my own than to risk it. So many wasted years, where I missed out on the incredible joy of your people. 


I am so grateful for the people you have put in my life God. I am so grateful for their love. I am so grateful for their gifts and talents. I am so grateful that they let me help them out once in awhile. Thank you for giving me friends that I don't deserve God.


What God Said Tonight:
Don't get confused by this and don't be afraid. I need you to know that there are more changes coming. You won't like some of them. You will have to walk away from some things that you don't want to but will need to make way for the new thing I need to do in you. 


You know how I have told you in the past that you may not always have a specific person in your life but you will always have amazing people. That is still true. I am expanding your borders I am enlarging your flock. You are going to see multiplication like you have never seen before. 


Don't worry about the changes and the good byes. I will take care of each of them. I love them even more than you do. I feel your heart getting sick over this. Please, do not fear this and do not get sad. It is a good thing. It will hurt a bit but it will be better in the end. You will not say good bye forever. You will see them all again. You have an eternity with them. But, for a season, you may not be seeing everyone that you want to. 


This is important and strategic and I would not ask you to do it if it wasn't important. Trust me and do not mourn.

Worship...

My prayer:
Amazing God. God I worship you. There is nothing like worshiping you. It is so amazing that as I pour out everything I have in worship to you, you pour back into me and give me more than I gave. 


That is so like you. You always out give me. You always have more to give. Thank you God for always outgiving me. Thank you for never running out of ...anything, love, grace, mercy, forgiveness, joy, plans...everything. 


God I will spend every day of the rest of my life in a quest to get even closer to you, to know you even better. The more I know you, the more I love you. The more I love you, the more I want to know you. It is a fabulous vicious circle God. God I worship you!


What God Said Tonight:
I almost don't want to talk tonight because I don't want this to end. I love private worship time with you my daughter. I love when you are focused completely on me and we can be together. 


But, I do have some things to tell you. You should know that there are some more new things coming. I have not stopped doing a new thing in your life. You are in a position right now to see more and experience more than you ever thought possible. There is a stirring in the spiritual realm that is over your life right now. 


You are finding yourself lost in a place of worship and that is good. Your worship will strengthen you and prepare you to see all that I have for you. I am with you now and forever and we have only begun to do this work. We have only begun to know each other. 


You  are going to be amazed. You are going to be awestruck. You are going to be so full of joy when you see what I will do. I am getting excited picturing how excited you will be. Don't ever keep it to your self. Everything I do is meant to be shared. Nothing I do is meant to be kept secret. I am completely transparent, as you should be. 


I love you daughter. Stay in worship for awhile...I am not ready to stop. I am not ready to let you go yet. I am pouring out a new anointing on you. I am filing you with a new level of your gifts. I have so much for you daughter. I am yours forever.

Not doing much...

My prayer:
Awesome God. I sit here tonight and look at the day and I am disappointed in myself. Maybe it is just that "after outreach letdown" but I look at today and don't feel like I did much of anything important. 


There was nothing bad about today. Work was good. I got some things accomplished. I had a couple of good conversations. But nothing important. Nothing like seeing someone who has nothing get so excited to get some new clothes. Nothing like talking to a good friend and finding that we have been dreaming the same dream for you. Nothing like getting to pray with someone who just came back to you and is looking for your direction. Nothing important. 


So, did I miss opportunities? Or, am I looking at it all wrong? God forgive me for not making today count for much. I love you and I will do better tomorrow...or I will at least try to.


What God Said Tonight:
What did I ask you to do today that you didn't do. You know there was one thing. It scared you a little and you put it off. That is ok. It can wait until tomorrow. But until you do it, you will feel stuck. You will feel like you are not doing much. You will feel unsatisfied. 


That is the way it works. When you ask for my direction and my will in your life and you don't follow it, you will be stuck until you do. 


Don't be afraid of this next step, this next thing I am asking you to do. It is a good step. It is the right time. Step out and do it and all the rest of the doors that follow will be opened. 


Don't get stuck here any longer. We don't have time. Tomorrow. Do it tomorrow and let's get moving. I love you daughter. I understand why you delayed but now is time to move forward with no more delays. 

Firm foundation...

My prayer:
My God and Lord. I know it shouldn't surprise me any more but I continue to be amazed at how easily and wonderfully you put everything together when I stop trying to control everything and "make" stuff happen. 


You surprised me today God and it was AWESOME!! The outreach was great. Thank you for the provision and the ability to bless so many people with food, water and clothes. I went expecting it to be like any other outreach, but you had other plans. You had the answer to the problem I couldn't fix, waiting for me there at the outreach! Talk about divine appointments!! 


God the way you take care of everything is so beautiful. You are so beautiful. Your love is beautiful. Your plans are beautiful. You are so beautiful to me!!!


What God Said Tonight:
I am building a foundation of solid stone in your life and in your ministry right now. The rocks are still a bit rough but I will fit them together. The imperfections in the rocks will fit together perfectly and provide a base that cannot be shaken. 


I need to build on firm foundations these days. The time when everything that can be shaken will be shaken is upon us. When you are shaken, I need you to be standing on firm foundation. I will build a beautiful ministry/home on that foundation, but it is important to have the foundation strong, firm, and unmoving first. 


Continue to trust me daughter. There is more to come. Things may not go the way you expect them to but it will all be perfect and you will recognize my work and my plan in every move and every stone. 


You are precious to me and I love you. Rest well my sweet.

Farming for God...

My prayer:
God, I am struck by my own inadequacy tonight. I am reminded that I can't save anyone. I am reminded that as much as I want to, I cannot convince anyone of your love for them. I am reminded that I often don't know the answers to my own questions, let alone anyone else's. How do you survive the pain of a divorce? What do you do when you are convinced that no one ever can or will love you? Where do you find hope when all hope is gone? 


All I can do is point them to you. Point them to you who has all of the answers. Point them to you who loves them more than they can ever understand. And when they tell me the reasons why they can't or won't, I need to point to you again. 


God, make me as relentless as you are. Help me to never give up pointing people back to you. Help me to find fresh ways to point them back to you. Help me to remember that it is not up to me to convince anyone but it is up to me to point them in the right direction to seek you, relentlessly. 


I am all yours God. Thank you so much for showing me your love everyday. Thank you for your power in my life. Thank you for providing for me. Thank you for showing yourself as so real and present every day of my life. Thank you for talking to me. Thank you for listening to me. Thank you God for being in a relationship with me that will last throughout eternity. I love you so very much.


What God Said Tonight:
You are my farmer. You plant, you water, you harvest, but I am the one that makes it grow. I am the purpose and the power behind the growth. You need to plant, you need to water, and you need to harvest but when it comes down to it, I am responsible for the results. If the plant grows or not, that is my responsibility. 


You may learn more effective ways to plant and to water. As you do, you will become a more effective farmer and that is good. But never forget that I am responsible for the growth. The growth is something between me and the plant. 


I have made many promises to you and have you seen me fulfill each and everyone in your life? You know that I have. You also know that what I do for you I will do for everyone of my children. I don't play favorites. You know these things, don't let anyone talk you out of it. Don't let anyone's struggle make you doubt the truth you know. Keep planting and watering and I will grow them at the rate that is best for them and for the kingdom. 


You have seen the streets of Israel in the sunshine and in the rain, even in the snow. You have touched the stones that I have touched. You have seen me do great things in your life and in others. Those are all experiences that help you to trust me and to be in relationship with me. However those experiences on their own are not enough. Those experiences without my power working in your life would have meant nothing to you. It is my power and my presence that makes growth possible. 


You farm and do your best and I will infuse them with my power and Spirit. We will have an army like none before.

Rivers of light...

My prayer:
My great teacher and provider. God you are so perfect. We are so imperfect but you are so perfect. We get things wrong more times than not, but you always get it right. 


God, I am just sitting in your presence tonight. It is hard to type. There are no words really for this. Your presence is beyond description. When people ask how I can believe in a God I don't see, this, tonight is the answer; but, it is so indescribable, it isn't an answer that would make sense to them. 


God I pray that your presence be felt throughout the world tonight. I pray God that every person who has ever doubted or been unsure of you and who you are, have a personal experience of your presence tonight. Let your presence blanket us tonight God. I bathe in your presence tonight God. Thank you so much for this gift of time with you. 


What God Said Tonight:
I am here for a purpose tonight. My anointing and presence is here for a purpose and a plan. It is time to cover to respond to every prayer request you have been making. Every prayer of healing, every prayer of provision, every prayer for guidance, I am here, now to respond and to make certain that every last one is addressed. 


I am always with you but know that when you sense my presence and my power like you do tonight, that is because I have some work to do. I am going out through the channel to heaven that your prayers created and I am taking care of each one right now. Can you picture it. See the rivers of light that are coming from heaven and reaching out around the world. Do you see? Those rivers can flow because people like you pray. 


There is a purpose in prayer. Yes, it is a time for us to know each other and better understand each other. It is also a time where you, my sons and daughters, have an an opportunity to intercede for others. When you pray those prayers, it opens an avenue for me to work in the situation. Don't underestimate your role in prayer. Don't underestimate the power. 


I hear every single prayer of yours. I am always listening to hear your voice. I know you don't always see the change immediately. Sometimes I need you to use your faith and grow your faith. Other times, the timing is just wrong. There are other things that may need to happen first. 


Trust me to know the best and most beneficial answer to every prayer. Know that I listen to each one personally. Know that I sit in anticipation waiting to hear your next prayer. I love you daughter. Keep praying.

Control...

My prayer:

King of all kings, Lord of all lords, God, my God. You are so incredible. I continue to be amazed at how, when I get out of the way, you work everything out so beautifully. When I stop trying to take control and let you do what you want to do, everything is so easy and it works out so beautifully, and people's lives are truly changed. 

Why is it so hard for me to learn that I not only don't need to be in control of everything but that me trying to be in control makes everything worse. It is when I surrender control to you that everything works out. 

That seems like a lesson that I am continually learning God. It seems like a daily lesson, a daily choice. Each day, and sometimes each minute, I have to decide that you know what you are doing and surrender to your control. 

My God, I choose to surrender to you. I love you God. Thank you for always having the right plan.

What God Said Tonight:

You are a walking miracle. You are a walking testimony of my power on this earth. 

Your surrender opens the door to my power. Your surrender opens the possibilities for miracles. As long as you keep control, you can only do and accomplish what you can do and accomplish as a human being. When you surrender that control to me, now we can do anything. 

I have no limit to what I can do. I have no limit for what I will do for you. Releasing your control to me makes the impossible possible. Every time you try to take control back, you limit the possibilities. Leave the control in my hands and you will witness the impossible before your very eyes on a regular basis.
