Miracles...

My prayer:

It is all about you God. Done.

What God Said Tonight:

And I am all about you. That is what makes our relationship so special and important. I give everything, including my life, for you and you give your everything for me. 

That is where the miracles are. When you think more of me that you do of yourself, miracles happen. Miracles happen when you get your focus off of what is holding you down and get your eyes onto me. 

Stay there and see the miracles rain down in your life. 

Timing...

My prayer:

Wonderful Father, I am late but I am here and can't wait to hear what you have to say tonight. 

You have been amazing as always all day. Thanks for divine timing all day. Everything happened just as it was supposed to just when it was supposed to. One of the many blessings of living life in your will God. 

LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!

What God Said Tonight:

My timing really always is perfect. I know that sometimes it seems like I make you wait too long. I know that there are things that you are believing me for right now that you think have been delayed too long. But, I promise, I will always work it out for your good. I will always make sure that the exact perfect timing is in place. 

The timing of a thing is as important as the place and the action of a thing. If you do the right thing in the right place but at the wrong time, you will not get the result you want. If you hit a home run in a baseball field but it is two hours before the game starts, you will not get credit for that score. 

When you wait on me, I will make sure that every action, every thing, has the maximum impact, the maximum blessing for you and all of those around you. I love you enough to make sure that you get what you need, WHEN you need it. 

Having fun with God...

My prayer:

Life with you is so FUN!!! All those years that we thought living life with you meant being sedate, quiet, and boring...we were missing out! God, I love your joy. I love that you want us to enjoy life. I love that you want to enjoy life with us.

Thank you for a fun night. Thank you for being a God who doesn't need us to be serious all of the time. Thank you for your continued favor raining down on my life. Can't wait to see what tomorrow with you brings!

What God Said Tonight:

Living this life with you. That is what I really want. I came to give you life and give you life more abundantly. I came to free you to live the life that you were made to live. I came to do it all with you and for you.

I love you and I love spending time with you. Sometimes that time is serious, sometimes it is worshipful, but sometimes I definitely want to have fun and enjoy you. You are my creation, my child, and my bride. I am celebrating every moment I get to spend with my children. My joy is your strength. 

My joy. That should be clue right there that I like to have fun. My reputation for being an angry and serious God is misrepresented. I am love. My joy is your strength. And there is nothing that I enjoy more than spending time with you and celebrating your victories in me. 

Love you now and forever. 

God on our side...

My prayer:

Awesome God of peace. God I pray for your peace tonight. I pray that you fill us with your peace that passes all understanding. I bind confusion and doubt and I loose your peace and direction in our lives. It is your desire that we live in perfect peace. 

Thank you God for your perfect peace in us tonight.

What God Said Tonight:

You do not need to fear or worry. I am still in charge. I have you covered and protected. Fear is not from me. Confusion is not from me. 

All things that are not from me have no place in your life. You have my peace, my strength and my eternal promise that I will never leave you. I will never turn my back on you. 

My favor, my power, my strength, my Spirit is on your side forever. Who or what could ever beat that? 

Love you my precious child.

God's help...

My prayer:

Awesome God. You have all the answers and you work everything out, every time! I don't know why it still surprises me. It shouldn't. 

I spent most of last night thinking about a problem, trying to work out a solution and got no where with it. I go to work today and before I can even try to work it out, you took care of it. Problem solved!

Thank you God! Thank you for taking care of me and the challenges in my life before I can even pray about them. The way you love me, the way you love us is amazing! LOVE YOU!

What God Said Tonight:

I take care of you because I love you. Pretty simple really. 

I love when you pray. I love when you bring me your needs, your wants. It gives us a chance to talk and it gives you a chance to know that it was me who stepped in and took care of it. 

However, when we are close, when you are talking with me throughout the day and we are together throughout the day, you don't always have to ask for help. I see what you need and I have the answers so I will definitely take care of you. 

If a mother saw her toddler drop their toy as they ran across the playground, wouldn't she pick it up? How much better will I, your heavenly Father, take care of your needs? I will give you the desires of your heart and I will provide for your every need. 

You can count on me and I will take care of you. I love you forever, my child.

God's talking...

My prayer:

Wonderful Father. I have a million thoughts running through my head tonight but none are really worth talking about. I think I would rather listen than talk. You always have something wonderful to say and that sounds like a better idea than trying to get my thoughts to line up into anything sensible. LOVE YOU!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I am happy to talk because you listen. 

Can you imagine for a minute what it would feel like if you were talking to people around you all of the time but none of them could hear you? Imagine the frustration. Imagine the hurt. 

I work pretty hard to make it plain. I even wrote a book. But too much of the time, my people, my children don't hear my voice. I know it takes some effort. It takes some practice. That is why I ask you to read my Word and why I ask you to assemble with other Christians often. These are things that help you to hear me. 

When life is so loud that it drowns out my voice, something needs to change. I am talking, all of the time, I am talking. I want to help you  I want to give you direction. I want to give you peace. I want to provide for your every need. Listen, hear, and love. 

Love and relationships...

My prayer:

Wonderful Father. I have a question tonight that I am really struggling with. You made us to be in relationship. Relationship with you and with each other. I have been taught this and I believe it. You are a relationship (3 in 1). 

So, if that is how we are designed, why are we so bad at it? Why to we hurt each other over and over? Why to we lie to each other? Why can't we learn to stay married to each other? Why do we kill each other? 

And, why do we have to learn how to be in a relationship with you? Why is it a revelation for most of us that you want to be in a relationship with us? Shouldn't we come out of the womb ready to begin our relationship with you?

It really seems like we should be better at it.

But, it is what it is as they say. God I pray for your help to love people better. I pray for your help to not hurt others. I pray for you love and peace to overwhelm us and help us to love each other better.

What God Said Tonight:

I think you know the answer before I say it. Sin got in the way. Sin corrupted your nature and one of the greatest things damaged was your capacity to give and receive love. 

You saw it in Cain and Abel. Even back then, with sin in their lives, he chose death over life. He chose to kill instead of to love. The knowledge of good and evil creates a choice between good and evil and, with your enemy running rampant around the earth, many people for many years have made choices that have significantly hurt your ability to love and have right relationships. 

The good news is that it does not have to stay that way. You can rediscover your love nature. You can heal the wounds from sin. You can make choice to love and not to kill. People are doing it every day. 

I will pour out my love on you until it is overflowing out of you. Let that be your guide I love you now and forever, remember...

Listen to God...

My prayer:

Magnificent God. Your presence, your joy was all around me today! It was WONDERFUL! I found myself laughing for no reason other than I felt GOOD! Your joy is my strength, for sure!

I realized something tonight that I honestly did not know. I learned that how you and I talk to each other is not typical. Many people don't know you like this. They could and if they knew how wonderful it is, they would; however, currently, they don't.

God, that makes my heart hurt. I can't imagine not being able to talk to you and expect you to talk back. I can't imagine a relationship with you where having you answer a prayer was the exception and not the rule.

God, my request tonight is that you help people to hear you. I pray that you help people to expect to hear your voice when they pray. I pray that you help people to understand how to wait on you, with expectation and faith. I pray that you help people to know that you want to talk to them and that you are talking to them. Help us to hear you better God. 

Thank you!

What God Said Tonight:

I desire your undivided attention. I nearly covet your attention. 

I love you so much and I have so much to tell you. You , my children, have so much that you need to know as we go into this next season. I will shout, I will jump, I will do all that I can to get your attention but in the end, it is your choice. You choose whether to listen to the world or to listen to me. You choose whether you will take time to be quiet with me. You choose whether you will believe that our relationship is real and alive or whether it is only a fantasy. 

I love you more than you will ever know. I have so much to say to you. I will help you, I will guide you, I will give you wisdom and knowledge. Listen for it.

The next day...

My prayer:

Awesome God. Tired, happy and at peace tonight. Grateful to have time with you. 

Thank you for hearing the prayers sent up this week for all of the needs and healing. Thank you for the numerous praise reports. Thank you for being our God, caring for our every need, and loving us! 

You are THE BEST!!!

What God Said Tonight:

The light is beginning to show on the horizon. It is peaking over the edge and beginning to illuminate some of the details of your next season, your next day. 

You are going to love this next season so much! There will be plenty of challenges but such great joy! You are going to see the miraculours surrounding you in everything that you do. You are going to see things that you could not have imagined as possible. 

I have prepared you for this time. Keep an eye on the horizon. Keep on eye on the details as they become visible. Not because I neccesarily need you to do anything with it right now but just because I want you to see the wonders that are coming. 

I love you and I can't wait to walk with you in this next season.

Final chapter...

My prayer:

Incredible God of everything and everyone. You are better than anything and anyone that has ever been. Your love is purer and more powerful than any other love that has ever been. Your sacrifice is more than any of us ever deserved. Your plan is perfect in timing and in execution. You are everything at all times and I love you more than I can ever tell you.

Thank you for who you are and what you do. Thank you for letting me know you. Thank you for loving me.

What God Said Tonight:

I have much to do in very little time. I have need of you and your brothers and sisters. I have need of anyone willing to say yes to me.

I have a plan that will set everything right, finally and forever. I have shared that plan with you plainly and written it out. Now it is time to execute it. Now is the time to gather in the last harvest. Now is the time to usher in the final chapter.

I have waited long enough. It is time to complete this work. I will.

Keep an ear open for God...

My prayer:

Wonderful Father. It is good to spend some quiet time with you tonight. 

It was actually great getting back to work today. Vacation was a wonderful break but it felt good to get back and start working everything together again. But, the crazy pace at work does not leave a lot of time to concentrate on you. 

You are always with me and I cannot express how grateful I am for that. I feel your presence and your guidance wherever I go and whatever I do. Without it I would be panicky and lost. But, there is not a lot of time to relax and talk during the day. 

That makes these times each night even more important and more special. 

I love spending time with you, I love listening to you, simple fact is I love you God. Thanks for choosing me.

What God Said Tonight:

Quiet time together is important, absolutely. 

As important though is you always being alert to my voice and my guidance. In the middle of the storm, in the middle of a busy day, in the middle of a traffic jam, in the middle of a celebration, always keep one ear tuned to my voice. 

I often have things to tell you. Things to help you. Things I would like for you to do for your sake and the sake of others. Usually, I will ask you to do things at the time that I need them done. It is easier that way, you don't have to remember. However, it does mean that I need you to always have an ear open for me. 

Be alert to my voice at all times and I will make your life a glorious miracle in action. Love you.

Keep the cycle going...

 Vs. 

My prayer:

Thank you for tonight God. Thank you for H's testimony and what you revealed to me through it. I really thought I was just there to show my support but turns out you had some other things in mind. I honestly did not realize that I was holding on to that specific fear that you showed me. I thought I had let go of it a long time ago. But you showed me I had not let go, I had just built up defenses against it. 

Thank you God for always helping me to grow more, to see more, to learn more and to be more of who you intend me to be. Thank you for never letting me stagnate in "good enough."

What God Said Tonight:

I always have something for you. In everything I ask you to do, in every opportunity I bring you, I always have something for you. I am a giving God and I will never ask you for something without the plan to give to you. To love is to give. 

When you give whether it is finances, love, talent, time, forgiveness, or what ever, I will always give something to you. It is the circle of giving the circle of love that I set up from the beginning of time. 

The only person who can stop the cycle is you. If you stop giving, if you stop loving, if you stop forgiving, things get piled up and block you from moving forward. Keep the cycle moving and you will never run out. 

Always...

My prayer:

Amazing Lord. What is on your mind tonight? You have been listening to me all day. I think it is time that I listen to you for awhile...

What God Said Tonight:

I have one thing on my mind, all the time. I am always thinking about you, my children. I am always thinking about those who are saved and know me. I am always thinking about those who are still lost. I am always working for ways for us to be together. I am always looking for those opportunities to catch your attention. 

I am always looking for the right time and place to have you approach my children who are lost. I am always looking for new ways for you to reach them. 

I am always thinking of you and how much I love you. I am always thinking of what is best for you and ways to get you the blessings that I have for you. 

You are the object and the target of my love and my affection. I will love you always and my mind is always stayed on you. 

For a short period of time, you may not see that or believe that. For a short period of time, you may think that I have forgotten you. It is not true. I can never forget about you. You are mine and I am yours forever. Trust that even when you don't see it. It is truth.

Our relationship...

My prayer:

I think I am on the edges of understanding something God but I don't completely get it yet. It is about relationships and more specifically our relationship. 

There are preachers who focus mainly on what we, your kids, need to do to live a life with you. It is kind of like self help but the Bible is our instruction manual. You gave us a lot of advice and guidelines and truth is, they are good. When I am able to live my life according to those rules, my life is usually better. 

Then there are the preachers who preach about your Holy Spirit and the power of your anointing. These lessons focus on how, when we are able to partner with you and your power, we see actual miracles in our lives on a regular basis. This is true too. I know that when I rely on your Holy Spirit power, I see amazing miracles in my life and in the lives around me. When I rely on your power, I can do things that I could never do on my own. 

I think you started to show me today how both of things can be true but I want to talk through it with you and see if I am getting it or if there is more to understand. What I think you were telling me today is that it is all about our relationship. Like any relationship, if both parties are not fully engaged and participating in the relationship, the relationship will suffer. 

In our case, you have shown me the things that I can do to live the best life I can. So that is what I can do to hold up my side of the relationship. Then you bring your power, your Holy Spirit anointing. When put together, there is nothing we can't accomplish. 

Also, like any relationship, it is not perfect. There will be times when I let you down and don't do what I should be doing. There will be times when I think you should do something a certain way and you won't do it that way. But, what is perfect about our relationship is that there is always grace. There is always forgiveness and mercy. We can always restore the relationship because its base is real love. 

So, that is what I am thinking...how did I do? Love you God!

What God Said Tonight:

Not bad. You are listening again which is good. You are looking to understand the things in your life that don't make sense and that is good. I have more to teach you. 

I have more grace and love go give you. Your focus has been on what you can do for so long that you have missed out on the full understanding of my grace and my mercy for you. 

The one thing that you are missing is that while there is work involved in any relationship, there is also great joy. There is also love. There is also comfort and peace in being together. 

You have an assurance in our relationship that you will never have in any other relationship. You have the assurance of eternity You have the assurance that there is NOTHING that can separate us. You have the assurance that every time, no matter how many times, no matter how bad the offense, I will ALWAYS forgive you. I will also show you grace and mercy. That is the covenant of my blood that I shed for you. 

Once you get that in your heart, you will live in a new level of joy and peace and love that you have not known before. I am yours and you are mine, now and forever.

Wants and needs...

My prayer:

Awesome God. Today was odd. Sometimes I think that it is not good when I have too much time to think. 

When I am running at 100 mph just to keep up with everything I am doing, I have to really focus my prayer, my faith toward just those things that are most important. Versus days like today when I had time to let my mind wander to things that are not productive.I got caught up in my "wants" God, which are not always good for me. 

I pray God that you fulfill every need in my life and only those "wants" that agree with your will for my life. I love you God. Save me from my own wayward thoughts.

What God Said Tonight:

I have a vested interest in you and your life. I have invested a lot into you. You have invested a lot into me and my Kingdom. We are on the same side working toward the same goals. 

I want you to have more than your basic needs. I want you to live in the glory of my kingdom as a first son, a prince and heir of great, the greatest fortune. I have great plans to prosper you beyond what you have already seen. I will prosper you in every area of your life. You will have abundance. You will want for no good thing. I promise. 

I love you. You are precious to me and I will never forget you or leave you behind. 

Strong rope...

My prayer:

Amazing Father. Awesome teacher. Incredible savior. 

My life is wonderful because you are in it and in charge. It is really that simple. 

People wonder why I work so hard and spend so much time getting to know you and getting close to you. The answer is very simple. The more of you in my life, the better my life is. The better my life is, the better I can make other peoples' lives. The better other peoples' lives are, the better the world is. 

I love you so much God. Thanks for loving me first and loving me more!

What God Said Tonight:

We are woven together like a strong rope. We are still separate as are the cords of the rope; however, we are so woven together it is hard to imagine one without the other.

It makes you strong. It makes you beautiful and it makes you blessed.

Don't ever stop seeking me. Don't ever stop trying to know me. There is always more to know and we can always be closer today than we were yesterday.

The closer you get to me, the more miraculous your life. Things that use to tie you up in knots that you could not find a solution for, disappear in my presence as we get closer.

I love you and I am yours forever.

Lord of my life...

My prayer:

Another wonderful day God! Thanks for the beauty, the laughter, the company, and the rest. 

I was hoping to hear the news about the next big thing you have for us today, but I trust your timing. And truth is, as exciting as this new thing is, it scares me a little. It requires stepping out in faith in a whole new way and while I want to do it and I will do it, it is still a bit scary. 

Thank you for being patient with me. I pray God that your perfect will is accomplished in all things. I am yours God.

What God Said Tonight:

Don't over think things too much. When it is time for you to step out, you will and I will give you the courage and the strength to do so. 

Your life has been in my hands for a long time now. You chose me to be the head of your life, to be the Lord of your life and I take that responsibility seriously. 

Every truly great thing in your life has been because I set it up for you. You will succeed because I made you to succeed. You will prosper because I made you to prosper. You will accomplish great things for my kingdom because I made you to. 

There is only one thing you can do to mess that up. The only thing that would truly get in the way of your destiny is if you decide to not follow me. If you decide that you no longer want me to be the Lord of your life. That will take you off track. Anything else, I can work with. 

I will work all things to your good. Move forward in faith knowing that I am in charge. Choose me and you will never go wrong. I love you. Enjoy this time, it will not come again.

Release the blessings...

My prayer:

Blessed and highly favored, thank you Jesus! So many situations today God that I thought were going to be tough and you went in before me and worked it all out. YOU ARE SO GOOD TO ME! 

Thank you for all that you do for me and thank you for loving me. Thank you for favor, joy, peace, prosperity, and rest.

All honor, glory and credit goes to you God.

What God Said Tonight;

Your blessings are no mystery. You are my child, you know and understand how my kingdom works, and you are obedient. How can I not bless you?

I love you and I am never happier than when you are succeeding. 

Get ready for more. You have not even begun to experience all that I have for you. I have blessings stored up for you that I am waiting to release. The time will come soon when I can loose those blessings over your life. 

NOW...

My prayer:

BEST DAY EVER!!!!!!!! God you are awesome!!!! Rest, massage, run, amazing news about the next season you have for us that will change the world!!!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!! 

Awesome God, I can see the amazing future you have for us and I am so worried that I will mess it up. I am SO LESS than perfect and what if I do something to mess this thing up? 

God, please be bigger than my ability to mess it up. YOUR WILL BE DONE! I am all yours God. 

I love you so much. I want to be and do everything that you have for me. That is the deepest desire of my heart. Don't let anything get in the way of that God. 

LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I am your God, I am your friend. I am your healer, I am your redeemer, I am your husband. I am everything you need. 

You are my child and my bride and I will make sure that every last thing that I have determined for us to accomplish is done in my name. 

I am so excited for this next season. You are in my will and you will see the amazing and wonderful accomplishment of a plan that I have had in place since the beginning of time. It is time to see that plan come to fruition. I will see it all come together and you will change the world in my name. 

Now is the time, now is the season, you have been prepared and put into position and you will see my will accomplished in this thing. 

I love you and I will see you victorious in my name.

Wanting more...

My prayer:

Thank you God for a great day of rest and time to worship you. I think I am having some of that after ministry event crash feeling tonight. All the built up adrenaline, joy, amazement, comes to an end and leaves me wanting more. 

I am really greedy when it comes to you and your presence God. I am really greedy when it comes to seeing you do your stuff. I ALWAYS want more. I want more of you. I want more anointing. I want more miracles for me and for all the people around me. I want more. 

I hope that in this case, greed is ok because I don't think I can do anything to change it. 

I can't wait for the next big thing with you God. I thought that I wanted some time to rest and recover, but I am hungry for the next great thing...whatever that is. LOVE YOU!

What God Said Tonight:

I do have a season of rest for you but it is short, so I am glad that you are ready to go again.

Remember that you always need the rest, the Sabbath. For your day to day life, that is one day a week. For the fields it is one year out of every seven. The principle is the same. Work sic and rest one. Then, start again. 

When you get out of balance with that, the time that you work is not as effective as it should be, you get burnt out and you can't live the life I have for you.

So, enjoy this short rest and be ready for the next season, the next big thing, because it is coming sooner than you think. I love you.

Completion and new adventures...

My prayer:

My God, your an awesome God you reign from heaven above! 

You promised you would take care of it all and you did. You promised that you would take care of me and you did. You fulfilled every promise and I am so grateful!!!! 

God I am soaring. Tonight was amazing. You were amazing. I am exhausted but need to hear your voice before I rest. I LOVE YOU!!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I love you. I am yours forever. I loved seeing you tonight and the joy of you watching it all come together. 

We will have many more times like this together. I have big plans. 

Go rest now and we will start a new adventure tomorrow...

God's spectator...

My prayer:

WOW! When you said you would take care of everything, you REALLY MEANT it! Down to the last detail. I feel almost guilty that I am not working like crazy in the last hours to see this thing done, but you have already taken care of everything. I kind of feel like a spectator in this whole thing instead of the coordinator. THIS IS COOL!!!

As I think about it, you have shown me over and over, when I relax in your will for my life, it is always easy. Not to say things don't go wrong. They do, but if I breathe and trust you, you always show me the solution or just take care of it yourself. 

This has been a whole new level of understanding of this for me. I want to remember this for a very long time. 

Can't wait to celebrate the conclusion of this event with you tomorrow God! ALL GLORY AND HONOR TO YOU!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I will seal this on your heart and mind because you will need in the future, a lot. 

I have many big challenges for you. I have many big things for you to do in your life. If you are to see them all accomplished, you will need to remember this time. You will have to remember that the faith walk, the trust in me to take care of the things that I start, will over come every obstacle. 

I will bring you the people you need. I will give you the favor you need. I will give you everything you need to accomplish everything that I have assigned to you. It is only fair that I do so. 

I love you. I am with you. I will never leave you. I am yours and you are mine forever.

Two days...

My prayer:

Today was one long series of problems that needed to be fixed. I am mentally and emotionally exhausted God. 

I pray for your rest and rejuvenation tonight. I will need to be sharp tomorrow and Saturday. I will need to hear your voice and be able to follow what you have for me to do. I don't want to let the ministry down and I don't want to let you down. 

Thank you for being my ever present help. Thank you for giving me wisdom and understanding. Thank you for giving me peace in the middle of the storm. 

I can't imagine and don't want to imagine life without you God. I need you so much, I love you so much.

What God Said Tonight:

I am here and have never left you. I am your rock. I am with you for this event and I will see it prosper. I will see you prosper. 

I know I have told you this before but it seems like you need to hear it again tonight. I love you. I will strengthen you. I will give you wisdom and knowledge that is not yours. 

I will. It is my will that you are doing this thing and I will see it complete. Keep your eyes on me and I will give you all that you need. 

Two days is no time at all. Two days can be a lifetime. Rest in complete assurance that I have you and I have this.

Everything working out...

My prayer:

It really is all coming together! You really are working it all out! Yeah GOD!!! 

I mean, I was pretty sure that you would but to see it all come together from relative chaos and then turn into everything falling into place like we planned it that way...that is pretty cool stuff! 

Thank you for showing me once again that you take care of me, you bless me and that you never lead me into anything that you are not prepared to walk me through and see me succeed.

Just a couple more days and I get to see you complete this thing God. THANK YOU!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I can't wait to see your face when this is done. 

I know that you have questioned why I wanted you to take this challenge on. I know you have wondered what purpose I have had in it. I have a purpose and it is simply to show you that even when I ask you to do something outside of your natural skill set, even when everything you try to do to make it work fails, I will still show up and make you successful. 

I want you to know that you can count on me for everything and I will never let you down. I want you to know that although I gave you great gifts and I love that you use those gifts for me, that there are times when I will need you to show up, just because no one else will. In those times, you can always trust me to work it all out. 

I will give you everything you need for every assignment I give you. You are one of my go to children because I know you will say "yes." I want to show you that your "yes" is good and I will always come through for you. 

I love you.

Gems embedded in the mess...

My prayer:

Well God, today was not really a better day but I managed a better attitude so it seemed better. I guess that is progress! 

I don't know what to talk about tonight. I really just have my head down in survival mode this week. 

I am VERY grateful that I don't have to face this week alone. I am VERY grateful that you are in this with me. I am VERY grateful for you God!

What God Said Tonight:

I see things differently than you do. You see a week that seems like a mountain of difficulties. I see a week full of millions of opportunities to show off what living life with me in it is like. You see the trouble, I see the victory. You see the complication, I see the solution. 

While my thoughts are not your thoughts and my ways not your ways, if you can, think on this week with the mind of Christ and you will recognize it for what it is. 

You will never have the opportunities that you will have this week, ever again. It is a unique time. 

Don't miss out on the gems embedded in the mess. When you are mining for gems, diamonds, emeralds, anything, you most often do not recognize them unless you know what you are looking for. They do not show their value initially. It isn't until you pick them up, polish, cut, and clean them before you see their true beauty. 

But, if you are looking for them and know what they look like, even when they are covered in dirt, you can find them, pull them out and polish them to a high shine with great value. 

Don't miss your gems.Love you!

Bad day...

My prayer:

Mighty God. I am not sure what to say tonight. One of the very best things about today is that it is over. Thanks for getting me through it. I pray God that you give me rest and rejuvenate me tonight so I can handle tomorrow better than I handled today.

What God Said Tonight:

It was a bad day, mostly. But try and count the blessings of the day and I guarantee you will find more than you thought there were. 

I protected you from the storm this morning, didn't I? I gave you an opportunity to solve a problem that you have been worried about, didn't I? 

Don't forget to be thankful even in the middle of  a bad day. That thankfulness can often be the key to turning a bad day to good. Your attitude, your viewpoint and perspective are more related to your experience of life than you may ever realize. 

Cut loose and set sail to a new island, a new land where yo will find people living out their destinies in joy and wonder. I am taking you there. 

Tumbleweeds...

My prayer:

What an amazing weekend of miracles God! Your healing power is mind blowing and I LOVE that you let me be a part of it. 

It is so fun to watch peoples' faces when they realize that they really are healed! There is this combination of shock, awe, joy, and amazement that is one of the most beautiful sights in the world.

I hope I never lose the awe of it. I think it is great that I have come to expect it. I would love to find that level of faith in other areas of my life where I simply expect your promises because I have seen you come through so many times in so many situations. But, I don't ever want to lose the wonder and the joy of seeing you do the miraculous. 

God, as I go into this week, I pray for wisdom and peace. There are a lot of challenges I know about this week and probably a lot more that I don't know about. I need you help in everything that I do and everything I encounter. Thank you for always being there for me. 

What God Said Tonight:

There are brambles, tumbleweeds that are growing up in your life right now. They are distractions and they are trying to obscure the path that you are on. Don't look at the weeds, stay focused on the destination. 

The path is still there even when you can't see it. Keep your eyes up and focused on me and I will make sure that the brambles don't trip you up. 

I will guide you always. 

This week is not as difficult as you think. I have prepared you for this. It is important, but it is only one more step in a path you have been traveling with me for years. I will see you succeed in all that you do. I will bless the work of your hands and I will love you always. 

Believe that.

 

WAR...

My prayer:

The enemy tried to steal, kill and destroy tonight but you stopped him in his tracks! You are so amazing God!! 

Thanks for letting me be a part of it. I love seeing you put satan in his place. 

I look forward with hopeful anticipation for the day that he is put away for good. I am tired of him and his tricks. But I am more than grateful that you are always, bigger, stronger, smarter and quicker than he is. 

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

You are in the middle of a battle that is not of your making but will be for your benefit. You are a soldier who has been drafted but I have equipped you with mighty weapons. I have equipped you with weapons that will actually do the fighting for you. But, I need you to be there. I need you to show up. I need you to use and activate the weapons to that they can defeat the enemy.

This war has been raging for many years and is getting more intense every day. This war will not in surrender. This war is a fight to the death. Not your death. You have everlasting life. The death will come to the enemy who has earned his place in hell. 

I love you my warrior daughter. Keep up the good fight. Your weapons will not fail you. I will not fail you, ever.

Rest with God...

My prayer:

Mmmm, another Friday night in your presence God. I love ending my week with you. I love ending my day with you. I love starting my day with you. Fact is, I love you!

Thanks for an amazing week. So much crazy good stuff, I felt like I was barely hanging on to keep up! I am READY for Sabbath with you tomorrow God.

What God Said Tonight:

I am your place of rest. I am the calm in the storm. I am your refuge. 

Come to me when you are tired, worn out, down. Come to me when you need strength, joy, peace. I am yours for whatever you need. 

I love you. I will care for you. I will give you everything you need and the desires of your heart. 

Come and rest with me tonight. No worry, no demands, just rest in my presence and I will give you all that you need. I am all yours, now and forever. 

It is my covenant with you.

Asking...

My prayer:

Wonderful God. Thank you for hearing and responding to the multiple prayers I sent your way today. You provided, you redeemed, you cleansed, you loved. I am so grateful that I can come to you no matter what the issue, no matter where the person is and you make it all turn around for their good. 

It seems like all I have done is ask you for help today and the thing is, I am not done asking. 

God, I ask for wisdom to make the right decisions and your healing power for my life. You know the situations. I need your help. 

Thank you Jesus.

What God Said Tonight:

There is nothing wrong with asking. I tell you to ask, to lean on me. I am your eve present help. Ask and keep on asking. I am here for you and I am here to help you live this life in this less than perfect world. 

I have no problem with asking, but, when you ask, believe that I will show up and take care of it. Expect me to do what I have promised to do. Look for and wait for the response to your prayer. 

Don't forget the follow up. In the follow up is where I get to show the amazing things I have done both globally and locally. I can show you how much what you do matters. 

How to fight sin...

My prayer:

Thank you for the praise report that "E" is home from the hospital and doing great! You are such an amazing healer!! That was a nasty motorcycle accident but you stepped in and took care of it all. Your love and care for us is pretty amazing. Especially since we don't deserve any of it most of the time. 

God, I need to talk to you about something tonight but I am not sure if I should. The thing is, more and more, when I look around and see the terrible things that we as a society, that I, ignore and/or allow, I get worried about where it will all end. How much is too much? How violent does this world have to get before it is done?

But then, I see the other side of the story. Who am I to judge what anyone does? I mess up all the time and all sin is the same to you. There is not greater or lesser sin for you. 

So, do we just allow things to get worse and worse until you come to get us? If not, what do we do? Fight it? Protest? That never seems to be very effective. A whole lot of people have killed a whole lot of people in your name over the years. Seems like that is defeating the purpose. 

What do you think God? What should I do?

What God Said Tonight:

Sin is rampant in this world and has been since the day that Adam and Eve allowed it in. Every generation thinks that there generation is the worst and every generation is right.

The world is on a down hill slide and there is only one way to stop it or even slow it down. Love people. Love them and show them your life with me. The more people that receive forgiveness and redemption before the end, the better. I want all of my children with me in the end. I don't want even one to be stolen.

The way that they get to come to me is not through judgement and not through war The way they come to me is by my children loving them enough to tel them the truth and to love them into the Kingdom.

You want to make a difference in a world that is buried in sin. Love people and tell them about me. It is the only defense against sin.

Remember too that in the end, we win. We prevail. We go on to live life together in paradise.

Our birth right...

My prayer:

You will pour out a blessing on me that I can not contain...Guess you were pretty serious about that God! Thank you for the continued favor. 

I pray God that your favor continue to grow and spread out to the wonderful people you have put in my life. Spread it to every situation in my life. Spread it out to every opportunity you have brought into my life.

I thank you God that you have already said that everything I touch will be blessed. I thank even more that you meant it and you are accomplishing it in my life. YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!! 

What God Said Tonight:

Favor is no mystery. It is not a magic potion or the result of some perfect combination of worship and prayer. Favor is your birth right in me. 

Favor is because of you. You are in me. Favor follows you around because it is looking to land on the people and children of God. Favor is attracted to the children of God. Stay still for just a moment and it will catch up to you. 

Joy right in front of you...

My prayer:

Well God. Today was definitely a Monday. But lots of good stuff happened too and I can only imagine the stuff that you protected me from. I am left pretty drained though. Just want to hear your voice and go to sleep. 

I ask God that you refill and refresh me during the night so I can try again tomorrow. Love you!

What God Said Tonight:

You were stuck looking at today when your vision is focused on tomorrow and that makes it frustrating and hard. 

Your tomorrow is on the way and I have already taken care of it. I know you are anxious for it but don't lose out on today and the joy in today by focusing on tomorrow. Tomorrow doesn't come in any faster by you focusing on it. 

Remember when you were a kid and could not wait to grow up. All you thought about was "One day when I am grown up I will..." But, thinking about it all the time did not make it come any faster. Actually it made it feel like it was taking longer and in the meantime, you missed out on a lot of fun that I had for you in that childhood time.

You missed the joy right in front of you because your eyes were on the future. 

It is good to hope for the future but don't let it rob your joy for today.

A GOOD future...

My prayer:

WOW GOD!!! What a GREAT day! You healed, you restored, you brought home a prodigal daughter and that was all before noon! Then you gave me hope, fellowship, wise counsel and peace like I have not had in a while. 

At the same time, I am SO EXCITED about what is next. You seem to be up to some pretty amazing stuff and I can't wait to see you do your stuff and share it with everyone!!

Love you like crazy God!!

What God Said Tonight:

Love you back daughter. I have planned for this time. I knew this time was coming. 

When you were worried and wondering about he future, I knew this time was coming. When you could not see how your life was going to work out, I knew about this time. 

I am the giver of hope because I know tomorrow and I know the plans that I have for you and your life. I promise they are GOOD. You step into agreement with me for your future and I can promise it will be good 

Today was good, tomorrow is better and wait until you see next week!!! 

Love you now and forever my love.

Smoldering dreams...

My prayer:

Awesome God. I have a lot of "what ifs" going through my head tonight and I am not sure how to sort through them or better yet, but them to bed so I can sleep. Typically "what ifs" are assuming the worst. What if the world comes to an end tomorrow? What if I get in a car accident? What if...fill in the blank. 

But tonight, my what ifs are all positive. What if the impossible dreams you have put in my heart really can come true? What if I really have been waiting all of this time for your perfect timing? What if all of those things that I gave up on really can happen? 

And suddenly, tonight, it ALL seems possible. Not probable, but definitely possible. Part of me is still a little afraid to hope but most of me is just EXCITED!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I see you and I know your dreams. I gave you most of them. 

Today is a day to reignite the dreams that have been smoldering. Their ember had almost died but if you breathe on them, breathe life into them, you will find a flame begin to form. Keep at it, keep breathing on it and you will see the flame grow. 

Your dreams have not died, they have been burning under the surface at a low heat. They have been becoming hard and permanent in the fire. Just as clay or metal hardens after being put in the fire, so have your dreams. 

They can now stand the attacks and the trials that will come against them. They can now come out into the light of day and not have to worry about being crushed by a well meaning friend or not so well meaning enemy. 

Your dreams were not dead, they were being prepared. Now, is the time. Today is the beginning. Get ready to see your miracles.

Advance prayer...

My prayer:

Such a wonderful night of prayer and worship with you and with amazing friends. I love nights like this, just soaking in your presence, hearing you so clearly, joining faith and watching you change people and situations in miraculous ways. 

Thank you for all that you do. I love you for who you are. I am all yours God, now and forever.

What God Said Tonight:

You have no idea. There were forces at work tonight that intended to derail your lives. Your combined faith and warring in my Holy Spirit against them created a barrier that they could not get through. Your worship, your prayer, not only was edifying for me and encouraging for you, it kept you from being harmed by the attacks of the enemy. 

When you are listening to me, I will tell you when you need to war and to fight. I will tell you when you need to bind and to loose. I will keep you safe. When you are listening carefully to me you flow in a natural rhythm which matches the need in your life and the lives around you. 

You will pray for protection before you know you need to be protected. You will pray for provision before you know that there is a need. You will pray for favor before you know the opportunity. When you listen closely to me, you can pray in advance of the situation and avoid some pitfalls. 

Seek me first and all these things will be added to you. Keep that word in your heart and in your mind. Seek me often. Listen to my voice and I will lead you always. 

Love...

My prayer:

Amazing Father who makes me prosper!!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING, AWESOME, INCREDIBLE, WONDERFUL, AND WELL, JUST WOW!

Today was, WOW! You made it happen. That may have been the biggest deal of my life so far and you made everything work perfectly. THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

What can I do for you God? Not because I owe you. I owe you more than I could ever pay. I just want to bless you. You bless me so much all of the time, what can I do to bless you? What would make your heart happy tonight?Tell me how to bless you...

What God Said Tonight:

I am blessed in your worship. I am blessed even more in how you love people That is what matters the most to me. Love people and love me. It is that simple. Everything else grows out of that love. 

I love you, you love others and love me, they love others and love me. 

Get a hold of real love and everything else fades from significance. The power of sickness buckles in the face of love. Adversity flees in the face of love. Everything is worthwhile with love. 

Simple message but as true today as it was at the beginning of the earth. 

I love you daughter. Rest in my love and show it off again tomorrow. 

The struggle of life...

My prayer:

Thank you God for hearing my prayer, for amazing friends and family who pray for me, and for making today 900% better than yesterday! So many awesome praise reports today for me and people I love. YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!! 

Thank you for favor. Thank you for peace. Thank you for getting me through the rough patches. LOVE YOU!!!

What God Said Tonight:

A life lived, truly lived, is never without struggle. The reality of life is there will be struggle, there will be trouble. There will be pain. But there will also be healing, protection, joy, peace, blessings, favor, and excitement. 

Each day is a mix of both sides and you get to choose what you look at and what you focus on. That is why I tell you to keep your eyes on me. 

When you find yourself walking away, you disrupt the atmosphere and stunt the expression of you love. 

Work in progress...

My prayer:

Wonderful God. I did not handle today well at all! I really let stress get to me and I have no idea why. I really lost my peace and I was not a lot of fun to be around. I hate being that way. I hate when I am clearly not being a blessing to people.

God, I ask for your help to do better tomorrow. The stress will not be decreasing anytime soon from what I can see so I need your help to handle it better. God, I ask for your peace in me. I ask for the peace that passes all understanding. Help me God to think of others first instead of myself. Help me to think about my reactions before acting on them. Help me to be a better person.

God, I bind the spirit of offense and irritability and I cast them to the pit of hell in Jesus name. I loose your Holy Spirit over my life to fill the places they leave behind so they cannot find room to return.

Thank you God.

What God Said Tonight:

You are a work in progress. You will have times when you succeed and times when you fail. Regardless, I will love you. Regardless I will help you. Regardless, I will stick with you. 

I am yours and you are mine and we will walk this path together, forever. 

Relax tonight, try again tomorrow my daughter.

Urgent prayer...

My prayer:

Wonderful Father. There are a lot of urgent, emergency situations tonight in the lives of people I love. I lift up every one of them to you, trusting you to take care of them. Trusting you to find a way for each of us. 

You are Father God and you promise you will take care of us. You tell us not to worry about everyday life, what we will eat or where we will live. You tell us to look at the birds and the flowers and how you take care of them. How much more do you love us and how much more will you take care of us.

God, I am relying on everyone of those promises tonight. I am interceding for those who can't find a way to pray tonight. I am agreeing in prayer with those who have already prayed. And, I am trusting you to fix it all since I cannot. In Jesus name...amen.

What God Said Tonight:

I hear you daughter and I have plans for each and every situation that you bring to me. 

I have to warn you, my plans don't always look right at first. Some people will get discouraged thinking I am not working on their behalf. But the truth is, I am and they might have to wait longer than they wanted to. They may have to get creative and find ways to get by while they are waiting. 

They will be satisfied when I am through. They will realize the benefit and rejoice in the favor on their lives if they can just wait for my will to accomplish what I brought it to do.

I love you. I will see you prosper. I will rescue you. In the new glory, you will get to see all that I have done. In the meantime, trust and believe. Do not stess. Stress will not help you. 

Fear and doubt...

My prayer:

Amazing God. I am feeling insecure and unsure of myself and my decisions tonight and I don't know why. Nothing has happened and nothing has changed. You continue to reassure me that you are guiding me and directing me. I should be SUPER confident right now. But I am not. 

God, I give you my worry and my doubt. I trust you to guide me all the days of my life. I trust you to show me the clear path you talked about last night. I pray for your peace in my mind and my spirit.

Thank you!

What God Said Tonight:

Fear and doubt are not from me. I bring you peace and direction. I bring you comfort and joy. I guide you, yes,  but not through fear and intimidation. That is the work of your enemy. 

You can make a choice, right now, who you will listen to. 

If you are on a wrong path, you know that I will let you know and I will show you a way out. As long as you are seeking me, I can show you the way to go. Make a choice tonight of who you will listen to. Then, stick to that choice. 

Love you sweet daughter. 

Clear path...

My prayer:

Amazing grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me...I once was lost but now I am found, was blind but now I see. 

Praise you God for your grace, your mercy, your salvation and your love which is the power behind it all. LOVE YOU!!!!

What God Said Tonight:

I have a road for you to travel in this next season. It will be a clear path. You will not see very far into the future of where it is going but you will be able to know definitively that you are on the path. It will be clearly marked and clearly different from everything around it. 

That is how you will know it is the path that I have designated for you. The fact that you can't see where it is headed, I hope that will excite you instead of frighten you. You need not fear as I am in control and will never lead you somewhere that you are not meant to be. I will never lead you into hurt or failure. I will show you the next few steps but I can't show you the destination yet. It is over the horizon and it is magnificent. 

Trust me, as I lead you.Don't look back. When all I am showing you is the next few steps, you will need to keep your eyes pealed on the future. Your past is behind you and gone. But, today, you are here and you will walk on the path of a clear design.

Perfect...

My prayer:

Wooohooo!! Friday night with my awesome God!! What a great night God!! You are amazing and wonderful and I love you like crazy. You make everything worthwhile. You are my reason for living and my reason for smiling. 

When people ask me how I am doing, I often tell them "perfect!" A lot of people are surprised or confused by that. But the thing is, in you and because of you, I am perfect all the time. Whether I am growing in the middle of a struggle or whether I am rejoicing because of your latest blessing, I am perfect because you are in me and you are in my life.

Thank you God for your perfection!

What God Said Tonight:

Perfect. 

Choices...

My prayer:

Howdy God! Seems like the subject of "choices" is coming up a lot these days in my life. People trying to make the "right" choices, trying to make the choice that is your will for their lives. 

Looks like I might have a big choice coming up. And, truth is, I have made my choice. There is no way that I can say "no" to this opportunity and live the rest of my life thinking "what if..." But this choice comes with risk. It means walking away from a some really good things in the hope for great things. It means trusting people (not so easy for me). 

God I ask for continued guidance. Show me the path you have for me and give me peace to follow it. Help me hear you above my own desires and will. Help me to choose your best for me. Help me to choose what is best for you.

What God Said Tonight:

You already know. You have been prepared for this time and for this choice. You have been taught, guided, directed, and worked into position for this time and for this purpose. You are whee you are meant to be. 

You will have to sacrifice some things. You will have to give up what you have built to receive what I have built for you. It will take great faith and it will take great trust but it will result in great reward, for you, the people around you and for my Kingdom. 

It is time and only you can decide. Step into the future I have for you or stay where you are. 

If you stay, I will still love you. I will be sad that you are living with less than what I have for you but I will still love you. I will still guide you. I will still bring you new opportunities. 

If you step out, if you trust me, if you move into the season I have prepared you for, you will know great satisfaction. You will be a conduit to world changing activities and you will be more than blessed, walking in your destiny. 

The choice, as always is your s and my love for you does not change based on your choice. Think carefully, choose carefully and I will be with you no matter what. 

Surprised...

My prayer:

Thanks for the surprises today God! Most of today was not what I thought it would be but it all turned out good. 

That really describes living a life for you and with you in me. Most things don't turn out how I think they will but they all turn out good. Your plans, your ideas, are always better than mine. You give me the desires of my heart, I think of ways of going after those desires, you provide them in ways I never could have imagined. Guess that is so I never forget who the blessings come from.

Love you God! Love what you are doing in my life! Love the blessings and favor that you have over me! Love living under an open heaven! Can't wait to see what you do tomorrow!

What God Said Tonight:

Being blessed should never surprise you. It is your God given inheritance to be blessed. I have the blessing of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob on your life. I have chosen a Joseph path for you and you will reap the benefits that he did. 

You are and adopted and beloved child of the most high God. Chosen, set apart, made holy, and righteous. Your destiny is to walk in my favor. Favor with man and favor with me. 

What should surprise you is when you don't see that favor working in your life. When you don't have blessings showering down on you. That should be the time that you are surprised and looking for what went wrong. That is when things are out of order. 

My children have become so accustomed to living with less that the wrong things surprise them. 

I love you and I want you to have exceeding, abundantly, and above for all the days of your life. Be blessed, always. 

No words...

My prayer:

Wonderful Father. I have no idea what to talk about tonight and you know that doesn't happen very often! 

Thank you for the favor for the new contract today, that was AWESOME! Thank you for the amazing people you have put in my life. Thank you for providing everything I need, physically, spiritually, emotionally. You remain wonderful and amazing. I love you!

What God Said Tonight:

Sometimes, we don't need words my sweet child. Sometimes we just need love. 

Receive my love tonight as I receive yours, and, that will be enough.

Bring me out...

My prayer:

Awesome God you know my struggle today. You know my battle which I have not yet won. I don't have an answer to this one God. I don't know what to do. All I know is to rely on you. You are my answer. You are my crutch. You are my salvation and my healer. I surrender to you God and say, have your way. 

I trust you to bring me out because I don't have any other choice. I either give up or I trust you and giving up is not in my nature. I leave it in your hands God.

What God Said Tonight:

I am going to bring you out. I am going to heal you. I am going to make a way for you that you cannot see. 

I am your God, your healer, your salvation and your redeemer. There is no better way than my way. 

Your trust is not misplaced. Your trust is in the only thing that cannot fail, my love. 

You will see the other side of this thing. You will see the way out. And then, looking back, you will see a purpose in it. 

I love you and I will not leave you here. Change is coming.

God's guidance...

My prayer:

Wonderful God. Sitting here tonight and I am realizing that I have been so busy just trying to keep up with all of the amazing opportunities and just everyday life that it has been awhile since I have asked you what you want me to be doing. Or, even more importantly, what do you want me to stop doing? Guide me, lead me, show me what you have for me.

What God Said Tonight:

It is not so much about what you are doing or not doing. It is more about how you do what you do. What I care the most about is your character. I care about the condition of your heart. I care about how well you are loving and being loved by those around you. I care about how you are treating those around you that I have put in your life. 

When you are doing whatever you are doing, are you loving me and loving the people around you? Are you showing the love that I have put in you? Those are the questions that matter most to me. 

Turn left, turn right, go forward or stay put, whatever works for you but do it in love. Do it with a spirit of love and mercy and make sure you are a blessing in the middle of it. 

God's eternal presence...

My prayer:

Soaking in your presence tonight God and it is so good! Through the good times and the bad, through the favor and the struggle, your presence is always amazing. 

God, it is my most fervent prayer that I NEVER have to experience a time where I cannot be in your presence. You have said that there is nothing that can ever separate us and and I count on that God. I need your presence more than I need air.  

I don't really need to talk tonight. Just want to be with you. Happy as always to listen though...

What God Said Tonight:

My presence is in you, around you, a part of you. You can never be without my presence because it resides in  you. You are my temple and you are where I dwell. I am in you and you are in me and we are inseparable. 

My covenant with you is that I will never leave you. My covenant with you is that I will always take care of you. My covenant with you is that I will always save and redeem you. My covenant with you is forever. 

I have waited a very long time for this time with you. And now, we are here and you do not have to worry, now that I have found you, I will never let you go. 

You and me forever, remember?
