Odds stacked against you...

 

My prayer:

Thank you for bringing me through another week God. You are amazing and how you bless me is incredible. The world tries to break me, almost every day but you block the blows. Thank you God for being my protector. Thank you for every guardian angel who has been assigned my duty. They deserve overtime benefits! Love you God, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

No weapon formed against you will prosper. It is a promise I have over your life. 

I will see you victorious even in the situations where everything is stacked against you. Those are my favorite battles. When there is no way you can win, I get to step in and make you win anyway. That is fun. 

I love you sweet daughter. We will win again tomorrow.

Be present, be patient...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I am not sure what to pray about tonight. You are amazing and you have promised that you are taking care of everything, including me. My job is to wait and trust. 

It seems like I am doing an ok job of that right now. It is taking a lot more to get me rattled. That either means I am trusting more or I am just going numb. I think it is the first one, trusting more. But sometimes, I get it wrong and don't even realize it until much later. 

Maybe that should be my prayer tonight. Show me where I am getting it wrong and help me to get it right. Not just in trusting vs. getting numb, but really in everything. Is that even possible? Well, with you, all things are possible.

What God Said Tonight:

Waiting gives you tie to think, to reflect and that is a good thing. Self reflection, working to improve yourself, these are all good. 

But the truth is, right now, I just need you to be present, be patient, and trust me. I will guide your steps. I will show you which paths to take. I will open doors and I will give you favor. 

I love you sweet daughter. Follow me.

Constant change...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I pray for your help and favor. I pray that you help me to keep my eyes fixed on you. I know that you have a plan, although I have no idea what it is. 

I bind the spirit of offense off of me. God, I know that pride is my enemy right now and I pray for your help to set it aside.

Thank you Father for your help.

What God Said Tonight:

Waiting on the next season is not something to avoid or to dread. Truthfully, most of your life is waiting on the next season. You spend very little time in a place of stability. 

In this world in particular, change is constant and it is in the change that you should hang on to my peace. I am the God of all, including change. Recognize that change is constant and your anxiety over when the next season is coming will dramatically decrease. 

I love you. I have you in the palm of my hand. I will help you now and forever my child. 

Live on...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I believe you are about to receive a really amazing man in heaven. You know him better than I do. You know his heart. You know his generosity. You know his love. He is going to fit in heaven so easily. 

He is going to leave a lot of us behind here on earth and life will be harder without him. I pray for your comfort and healing for all of us. I pray for his family that you bring them peace and wholeness. I pray for all of the people he has helped and touched in his lifetime, there are so many. Help all of us God to live life with the legacy he left behind. Never forgetting him but living our lives through the amazing influence he had on each of us.

Let the angels sing when he gets there. He loves music.

What God Said Tonight:

My heaven is not full. My heaven is a temporary holding place while we wait for the new heaven and the new earth. 

I will care for your friend. You know I love him but I promise you, I will care for him. I will heal his family. 

A life well lived is missed when they are gone but in truth, they are never fully gone from the earth. They live on in the people whose lives they touched. He will live on in you. 

Don't waste it...

 

My prayer:

Today was definitely a day where I just put one foot in front of the other and moved ahead. I have no idea where we are headed God but I know you have a plan. Keep guiding my steps. 

What God Said Tonight:

Every action and reaction are pieces to the puzzle. 

A life well lived is  one in which you grab the opportunities and blessings I bring but also one where you face the challenges and see both successes and failures. Life is an experience you will carry through eternity. It is a special and precious time that you may not fully appreciate until you are in eternity with me. 

There is a precious joy to the experiences of a finite life. And while you have an eternity with me, there will be a day when you leave this world and this life. Don't waste a minute of your life here on earth . I tell you each moment is precious.

Overwhelming...

 

My prayer:

Facing a new week and a new opportunity to trust you. I am not sure what you have planned but I know that it is good. I pray for the patience to wait for your plan to unfold. I want things to move forward, to change so much that I am worried I might try to force it. 

The good news is, I know from experience that if I do try to force it, it will just fail and leave room for you to do what you planned in the first place. 

That is truly all I want God, your will to be done in my life.

What God Said Tonight:

I have plans and plans within plans. There is such intricacy and detail that I cannot begin to explain it but I promise, it is for your good. I promise that your plan is a vital part within the larger plan. I promise I have not forgotten you. 

The things that seem so large and overwhelming today will not take up so much space tomorrow. 

I am yours and you are mine, now and forever my child, my love.

Follow peace...

 

My prayer:

Awesome God. I pray for your guidance and most of all, your will in my life. Was today an open door, or the beginning of one? Or was it just a distraction? 

Lead me down the path you want me to be on. I love you.

What God Said Tonight:

Peace. Follow peace. Where you find peace, you will find my will. 

I have made a way clear and it will give you great peace. Walk in that peace and you will find yourself in the destiny I have for you in this next season. 

I love you my child.
