You Are Set Apart

You may need to pray this today because you need to remember how precious the hard to love are...

Yesterday may have been hard. Yesterday your heart may have been broken. Yesterday you may have shattered.

But God knows you. And He has set you apart. And he has appointed you for such a time as this.

And just as he has set you apart, he has set your loved one apart.

Thanking God that He loves perfectly. And learning to love like Him.

December 3, 2018 Our prayer for our loved one today:

Jeremiah 1:5 NIV [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you...

Lord, thank you. Thank you that You are the God of the universe and the God of the smallest organism and the God of (my loved one). Lord I thank you that you created (our loved one) perfectly and wonderfully. I thank you that before (he/she) was even conceived You KNEW (him/her). Lord thank you that (our loved one) is set apart. You have a plan. You have a purpose for (his/her) life. You have appointed (our loved one) to do specific things for your kingdom. Lord, I pray that (our loved one) would, through something or someone, see you today. That (he/she) would experience Your love. And that today would be the day (he/she ) would begin to understand how much You love (him/her). We pray this in Your son's precious name. Amen!

He will Bring Us Peace

“I have seen what they do, but I will heal them anyway.” This morning, those words truly cut deep.

He sees what we do...every little scowl, every eye-ball roll, every middle-finger. He hears our gossip, our anger, our complaining. He sees the pills we take, the wine we drink and the porn we watch.

And He will heal us anyway. Because that is grace.

And if we are to be like Him, if we are to love like Him, our command is to extend that same grace to others.

And the grace that we extend to others will turn our tears into songs of praise!

And He will bring us peace...

November 30, 2018 Our prayer for our loved one today:

Isaiah 57:18-19 NLT [18] I have seen what they do, but I will heal them anyway! I will lead them. I will comfort those who mourn, [19] bringing words of praise to their lips.May they have abundant peace, both near and far," says the LORD, who heals them.

Oh Lord, we come before you today knowing that you are omnipotent are sovereign. You know everything about us. Where we sit and where we stand. And Lord, we know that You see EVERYTHING we do. Yet Lord, you continue to love us, to cherish us, to bless us. Lord, we thank you today for this assurance....that in spite of our rebellion you promise to heal (our loved one) and you will lead (him/her). Lord, I thank you that You will bring (our loved one) to a place of rest in You. Lord, thank you that when that time comes You will comfort (our loved one) and You will comfort each of us who have loved and prayed and mourned for (him/her). Lord, thank you that you promise to change our tears to words of praise; change our worries, fears and anxiety to abundant peace! Lord, we THANK YOU that you are trustworthy and that You will keep Your promises! We pray this today in Jesus precious name. Amen

I Belong to the Lord

Isaiah 44. I heard it as clear as if it were my husbands voice in the room. Isaiah 44. Wait…what? I was completely alone, sitting on my precious chair, with my even more precious coffee cup next to me. And again….Isaiah 44. I had heard stories of people hearing the voice of God. It talks about that in the Bible…you know Saul literally falling off of his horse because God spoke to him. I know God can do this, but it had never ever happened to me. At that moment, I had no other choice but to open my Bible to Isaiah 44 and this was the promise that God gave me.

I believe whether he says it out loud to you or not, His promises are for ALL of us. This promise is for you my friend. And when we are walking through the valley of the shadows, the ONLY thing I have complete assurance in is that His promises are true and for each one of us, for such a time as this.

Hold on today, dear sisters and brothers. It will get better.

November 26, 2018 Our prayer for our loved one today:

Isaiah 44:2-5 NIV [2] This is what the Lord says---he who made you, who formed you in the womb, and who will help you: Do not be afraid, Jacob, my servant, Jeshurun, whom I have chosen. [3] For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ground; I will pour out my Spirit on your offspring, and my blessing on your descendants. [4] They will spring up like grass in a meadow, like poplar trees by flowing streams. [5] Some will say, ‘I belong to the Lord’...

Lord we honor and glorify you this morning knowing that you created each of us perfectly and wonderfully. We thank you for forming (our loved one) in the womb and for your desire to help (our loved one). We pray that you cast out all fear that (our loved one) may have today because You have chosen (him/her). Lord just as only you can poor water on a thirsty land and create streams of water through a dry ground, we believe that You will poor our Your Spirit on (our loved one) and rain blessings down on (him/her). Then (our loved one) will spring up like grass in a meadow, like a poplar tree by a flowing stream. We believe that in that moment (our loved one) will say "I BELONG TO THE LORD." We eagerly await that day and will not stop praying until it comes to pass. We thank you for your faithfulness and power in our lives. We pray this in Jesus Name! Amen.

He Is Always On Time

As we walk through fear and doubt and hopelessness our armor is to keep His promises in front of us.   While we can't see it, he is creating a beautiful tapestry in each of our lives.  The finished product won't be revealed until we meet him face to face. But be assured that what may look ugly to us right now, will come together in the end to be something incredible.   I believe with all my heart that God will use all of this pain, all of the knots, all of the insanity for something very beautiful.  

November 25, 2018 Our Prayer for Our Loved One Today

Habakkuk 2:3 TLB [3] But these things I plan won't happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, do not despair, for these things will surely come to pass. Just be patient! They will not be overdue a single day!

Lord we come before you today worried, fearful, anxious, doubting.  What we see around us doesn't always reconcile with your love.  So we question.  But your word gives us confidence.  Your word says that you are working behind the scenes right now in (our loved one's) life.  That even though we can't see your work yet, that slowly, steadily and surely the time is approaching when the vision for (our loved one) will be fulfilled.   And because of your promises, Lord, we will not despair because we trust that these things will come to past in our life and in (our loved ones) life.  Help us to be patient as we walk this difficult journey waiting, trusting, believing that the moment, that moment when (our loved one) says “yes, Lord” will be in your perfect timing and will not be overdue a single moment.  Lord we honor your promises and rest in them today.  In Jesus precious name we pray.  Amen.

The call that your loved one is in jail…

The call that your loved one has OD’d…

Or you may get it today.

And you feel abandoned…

Do not doubt for one second that God sees you. He knows exactly what you are going through today.

The Rescie

He came in alone...

Weary, tattered and worn.

He was weeping as he made his way to the alter, the only place where he knew he could find relief from his troubles.  The only place he could be freed from his anguish.

Praying today that our loved one would take refuge in the only one who can do the rescuing.

Glorious Riches

We worry…

We stress…

We obsessively think about them…

On the street,

In their cars,

On other people’s couches,

Or not even knowing where.

Or knowing where but knowing how far from Him they are.

And we pray that our God, the God who rained down manna from heaven, the one who gives us our daily bread, the one who wraps us up in His infinite love…

That God…would meet all of their needs today.

November 17, 2018 Our prayer for our Loved One today:

Philippians 4:19 NLT [19] And this same God who takes care of me will supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus.

Abba daddy, we one to you today carrying a heavy burden for our loved one. Not always knowing where they are, if they are safe and knowing fully that they are lost. Lord, you are the God who provided manna for Moses. You are the God who multiplied the loaves and fishes. You are the God who gives me the perfect portion for my life. Lord, I trust that you will give [our loved one] all that [he/she] needs today. We pray that you would supply exactly what [our loved one] needs not just physically, but spiritually as well. We ask that you would fill [our loved one] with your glorious riches, the abundance of all that we are promised because of what your son did on the cross. Thank you that we can trust you to care for [our loved one] when we can’t. We pray this in your son’s precious name. Amen

I Trust You

He asks, "Do you trust me?"

I say "Of course Lord, I trust you."

He says, "Do you really really trust me?"

He says, "Then surrender.  Let me handle this.  I am fighting this battle for you in ways you can't even imagine!"

I say, "Yes Lord" as I wave my white flag!

And then... He turns to my loved one and says:

“Call to me and I'll answer....

I'll be by your side in bad times...

I'll rescue you....”

Words that I hold on to tightly.  Words that I pray.  Words of comfort and hope.

Water of Life

Every day we wake up and our spirit is thirsty. Innately we search for something to quench our thirst.

For some of us it's food, for some it's control, for some it's gossip and for some it's drugs or alcohol. We try to quench that thirst with the things that the world gives us.

But there is only one thing that will truly quench that thirst and that is the LIVING WATER that our Lord gives us when we cry out to Him.

Lord, I'm thirsty today. Thirsty for the water only you can give me.

Praying that our loved one would whisper today "Lord, I'm thirsty for the water only you can give. The water of LIFE."

November 14, 2018 Our prayer for our loved one today:

John 4:10-11,13-14 NIV

[10] Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.” [11] Where can you get this living water? [13] Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, [14] but whoever drinks the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

Good morning Father God. The words of Jesus bring hope to us this morning. Lord, You have a gift you want to give (our loved one) today. Lord we know that if (our loved one) asks, you will give (him/her) living water. Lord, we know that there is only one place to get this living water. (Our loved one) can drink the water of this world and (he/she) will always be thirsty for more. But Lord, your word says that if (our loved one) drinks the water you give (him/her) (he/she) will never thirst again. Lord I pray today that (our loved one) would drink the water that You give (him/her) and that it will become in (him/her) a spring of water welling up to a life of freedom! We confidently cry out to you today! In Jesus Name. Amen!

Redeem: To buy back, to claim.  We have been claimed, my friend.  We all have been claimed.  We were bought for the price of a life.  Every last one of us.  The greatest gift of love ever given.

And our love and compassion towards our loved one will keep us connected to them...

His love and  strength will guide them home...

November 13, 2018 Our prayer for our loved one today:

Exodus 15:13 NIV

[13] In your unfailing love you will lead the people you have redeemed. In your strength you will guide them to your holy dwelling.

Oh Lord, you love reaches to the heavens.  It rains down on us to overflowing.  Lord, today, in that unfailing love we pray that you will take (our loved one) by the hand lead (our loved one), who you have redeemed.  In Your strength, in the way that only You can, guide (our loved one) to you and guide them home.   Lord, we know that Your desire is for each one of us to rest in You.  Lord, we pray that you would draw us all near to you today and hold us in your mighty hand.  In Jesus precious name.  Amen

May the Lord Bless You

Every so often I love to pray blessings over my loved one.  In the eye of the raging storm it is SO hard to see any good.  And yet, that is our work, that is what God calls us to.  He calls us to see EVERY human being intrinsic to Him.  Every person with value, created in His image.    It is something we have to purpose to, because it doesn't come naturally in our circumstances.

So today, sweet friends I pray a blessing over you and I pray this over each of my family members.

True love, God's pure love DRIVES OUT anger, bitterness, frustration and hate.  Praying for others is the ONLY way to be truly filled with love for them.

May your hearts be filled with love for one another today.

November 11, 2018  Our prayer for our loved one today:

Numbers 6:24-26 NLT [24] 'May the Lord bless you and protect you. [25] May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. [26] May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.'

Lord today our hearts are filled with love for You because you are the author of life.  Our hearts are filled with love for (our loved one) because you divinely appointed us to be (our loved one's) family.  Lord today we pray blessings over (our loved one).  Lord we ask in love that you bless (our loved one) and protect (him/her).  Lord will you smile on (our loved one)) and be gracious to (him/her).  Lord will you show Your favor on (our loved one) and more than anything today will you give (him/her) the peace that passes understanding.  Lord thank you that you are the Holy One who IS love!  We ask these things in your son's name today.  Amen
