The History: A couple of years ago, I started journaling my prayers and God's responses to them. I told my friends about this, they were really interested. I told my Pastor about it and he said, how about sharing those on line. When I asked God, He said, my words are for you, but not just for you. And, here we are...I hope He speaks to you in these words.

Peacemaker...


My prayer:

Awesome God. I hate conflict. I know that conflict can be good and can stimulate growth but I hate it. I hate how it feels. When I have conflict in my life, I just want to fix it and make it go away. 

I had a lot of conflict in my life today and it left me really stressed out. The work out helped tonight but I am still just a bit on edge. 

You said it best, blessed are the peacemakers for they will be called the children of God. Peace is so much better than conflict. God, help me be a peacemaker.

What God Said Tonight:

Peace, true peace, peace that comes from me is not reliant on the situation. You can be in the middle of a storm and have peace when you are concentrated on me. 

Being a peacemaker means you bring me into every situation. My presence will bring peace. Remember when I was in the boat and told the storm, peace, be still? The storm obeyed but I had to have peace within me first before I could command peace on the situation. The same is true for you. You must first have peace within you. Then you can speak tot he stormy situations and command peace into them. That is how an effective peacemaker works. 

In my presence is perfect peace.

Thought control...


My prayer:

Hi God! Today sure wasn't what I expected. One of the things that I love about living life with you is that it never gets boring, You are always changing things up and then making them work out even better than what I had planned. I need help remembering that sometimes though. When all my plans for the day are slowing going down the drain, I need to remember more quickly that you are in charge and not worry about it. 

Kind of like how I have been worried about filing the tax form for the 501c3 because I had not done it before. I have been worried about that for three months thinking it was going to be really difficult, what if I don't have all the documents I need, what if I don't understand what they are asking for, what if...fill in the blank. Then today, I go on line and realize it is SUPER easy. All that wasted time in worry. 

I would like to remove worry from my life. It serves NO purpose. From now on I am a WORRY FREE ZONE! I refuse to worry because you are in charge of my life. Thank you Jesus!

What God Said Tonight:

Your mind is your own and you have more control over your thoughts than you realize. The idea that thoughts control you is a myth. It is a myth that is encouraged by your enemy so he can use thoughts against you. 

You know how I tell you to take every thought captive. I never tell you to do something you can't do. Take every thought captive and rule over your thoughts. Don't allow thoughts that are not of me and not edifying to you. Simply tell them to flee. Then concentrate on good things. Concentrate on me. I promise, it is possible. 

It is time that you switch the paradigm and make sure that you are in charge, not your thoughts and not your emotions. Your spirit man  will rise up and take the lead. I love you.

Simple, not easy


My prayer:

Wonderful God. Thank you for a day full of your grace, mercy, and protection. You are really wonderful and I know I don't appreciate that enough. It is awfully easy to get accustomed to you working out the details of my life. But, every once and awhile, I stop and look how you truly work all things together for my good and I literally stand in awe. My jaw drops and all I can do is thank you. Thank you amazing God!!!

What God Said Tonight:

Walking out the life I have planned for you is not always easy but it is always simple. I will guide you always and I will not lead you into temptations. I will deliver you from evil. All you have to do is say yes and take a step forward. Simple but almost never easy. 

I may ask you to do thins that don't make sense to you. I may ask you to take a step out on water. But, if you say yes and step out, I will always make sure you don't sink. I will make sure that you live out the amazing destiny I have for you. 

If you say no and you don't step out, I can't give you all of the things that I want so deeply to give you. I will still love you. I will always love you. But in order to get you all of the blessings I want to give you, I need you to say yes and step out. Trust me and I will not let you down.

I just want to love you...


My prayer:

Sweet Father Lord. You are wonderful and I am very grateful for the worship experience of your presence tonight. Thank you for reminding me how precious our time together is. Thank you for letting me feel your presence and your love. There is NOTHING better than your love! 

Your love drowns out every worry, every fear, every sickness, every rotten thing in this world. Your love overpowers and smashes each and every one. I barely remember life before I knew  your love. I just remember it as dark and meaningless. 

God, I hope at some point today I was a blessing to you. 

What God Said Tonight:

Tonight was wonderful because there was nothing between you and me. No sin to separate you, no worry to distract you. Your mind was clear and ready to receive what I wanted to show you. 

I really just want to love you. That is the thing. Everything I do and everything I am just wants to love you. People over the years have confused it with so many other things, so many rules, but the truth is, I just want to love you. 

Forget everything once and awhile and just let me love you. My love will heal and restore you like nothing else. Sweet dreams my love.

Want vs. need...


My prayer:

Awesome God. I am not sure what to pray about tonight. Everything I think of sounds pretty whiny even before it comes out of my mouth. There is so much to be grateful for but I have not been very good at focusing on the good things today. 

Thank you for the rest today God. It was not what I had planned but was apparently what I needed. 

Ok, I am going to shut up now. Everything that comes to my mind is a complaint tonight. I would rather listen to you God than get caught up in my own thoughts. What is on your mind tonight God. Your thoughts are not my thoughts and I am VERY grateful for that. 

What God Said Tonight:

You didn't want what you got today but it is what you needed most. Sometimes I need you to trust that I know best. I know what is coming so I know what you need today. You had your plans for today but they were not plans that were going to prepare you for what is coming next. My plans for today were what you need for tomorrow. 

You pray all of the time that you want my will accomplished in your life. Sometimes that means that you don't get what you think you want. Sometimes that means stepping out and doing something that you don't want to do. Other times, that means staying home when you want to be out doing things. 

I am in charge and will stay that way until you or unless you change your mind. But know that I make decisions based on what is coming. Not just on what you need today but on what you will need for tomorrow. I love you daughter. rest and know that you are well prepared.

Promises and blessings...


My prayer:

Amazing and incredible God. Thank you for the divine appointment tonight. I still don't know exactly what you are doing but you are definitely up to something. I can't wait to see what it is! 

This is clearly a season of change and I ask God for your very firm guidance. Help me please to make right decisions that are your perfect plan for me. I don't want to miss it. I want every last promise that you have for me. I want every last promise that you have for your people. 

We talked about it tonight God, we have forgotten your promises. Or maybe it is that we have forgotten that your promises are real and should be happening in our lives. When did we decide it was ok to live with less than the best? You have said we are a royal priesthood. I don't see any of really living like a royal priesthood. I am not sure I even know what that would look like. 

Dearest Father, remind me, remind us of your promises. Show us how to live with them active in our lives. 

What God Said Tonight:

Your greatest hour is at hand. You are walking into a time of great prosperity and joy. I can see your tomorrow and it is truly wonderful. 

You haven't earned this season but that is the point. It is a season of blessing, not of reward. You can't be good enough to earn what I have for you. What I have for you is greater than anyone could deserve. 

I hear your doubts. I am not promising something just to encourage you and get your hopes up. I am informing you of the future that is to come. I am glad you are writing this down because I want you to come back to this in a week, a month, a year and see how true it is. 

I love you and I have great promises on your life. You will see those promises and they are greater than you imagine. Don't doubt, don't worry, just trust and see what I will do for you.

What you don't know...

My prayer:

Gave everything I had and a little more to this day God. I am ready for sleep and Sabbath! But first, what is on your mind? What do you want to talk about tonight? I am all ears my Lord.

What God Said Tonight:

You know how sometimes you think you know what is going on and later you realize that you had no idea what was really going on? Well there is some of that going on right now in your life. There are some events, some things happening that you think you know the reasons for. You think you know why it is happening; however, there is so much you don't know. So much that if you did know, would help to make sense of the situation. 

I can't tell you everything that is happening although I would like to. What I can tell you is I am still in charge. Trust in me and I will lead you and guide you. One day, you will see the truth. Until that day, just know that not everything is as it seems. Some things have greater depth than you can imagine. 

I am yours and you are mine and I will not let you be taken away from me. You and I are together forever.
