Dear Heavenly Father…How grateful I am to begin this day in Your felt presence. How thankful I am that You have already defeated the enemy of my soul and given me the authority of Your Son’s name to continue pressing my adversary’s defeat upon him! My battles truly belong to You, and the more quickly I get out of the way, You come through like a lion and turn these skirmishes into vapor. My trust is in You, no matter what any other voice would like to tell me. I am yours, and I am ready to face this day. In the Name Above All Names, King Jesus. Amen!

And he said, “Listen… Thus says the LORD to you: 'Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's.”
2 Chronicles 20:15

Dear Lord Jesus...You are my Refuge, Rock, and Fortress! I love and adore You this morning before my busy day begins. You hold me in the palm of Your hand, and like the eye of a hurricane, I find peace beyond understanding, limitless hope, and strength for any challenges I am currently facing. I surrender everything to You, relinquishing any control or hold on every situation I may find myself in. You reign! You rule! And I put my trust in You. You have never failed to work wonders on my behalf. Let’s start this day. In the Name of the One and Only King Jesus. Amen!

King-God, I need your help.
Every morning
you’ll hear me at it again.
Every morning
I lay out the pieces of my life on your altar
and watch for fire to descend.

Dear Lord Jesus…Here we are again! The start of a brand-new day. In this moment of quiet, I pour out my life before You.

In the Wonder-Filled Name of Jesus, Amen!

It will no longer be said of you [Judah], “Azubah (Abandoned),” Nor will it any longer be said of your land, “Shemamah (Desolate)”; But you will be called, “Hephzibah (My Delight is in Her),” And your land, “Married”; For the LORD delights in you, And to Him your land will be married [owned and protected by the LORD].

Dear Lord Jesus…With wars and rumors of wars happening, I know that even before I ask, You have supplied all of my need for every area of my life.

I tell worry to get behind me in Your name, and I refuse any advance of the enemy (he is so weak!) to try to throw a wet blanket of anxiety over my soul. You alone, Lord, are everything, and I seal this prayer in Your Beautiful Name, Lord Jesus. Amen!

Home from Israel...

In Tel Aviv

Home from Israel!

Please forgive that I am sending a second post this morning, but I just wanted to say a huge thank you to everyone who prayed, especially family and friends, for my safe return and for the women I was traveling with.

God answered your prayers. From times in bomb shelters, sheltering in place in Galilee, traveling with an armed guard into and through Egypt, then flying home from Cairo to London to Los Angeles yesterday.

I love the Middle East. All of it. Every nation. Every man, woman, and child. Grieving for it all. Praying for every man, woman, and child in the whole region. Praying in the Spirit because I don't always know what to pray.

And I am ever so thankful for the amazing women I was with. Bonded and marked together for life by this experience. For such a time as this. We worshipped ardently, interceded passionately, and we were lavishly blessed with God’s peace beyond understanding. That was the power of your prayers.

A huge shout-out to the Leadership of the Eagle's Wings organization and to the beyond wonderful Marion Ingegneri, who invited me to come. Little did anyone know what an adventure it would be!

This will take a little while to unpack before the Lord, but His felt presence throughout was profound. I praise Jesus for all He has done for me.

And again, thank you for praying...

Dear Heavenly Father...I love You this morning...and always! How grateful I am to be held securely in Your hands when the world, finances, prices, life, weather, and people stuff are raging, damaging, and afflicting. You said it would be so, but You also said that in the power of Your Holy Spirit and living in Your presence and Word, I can live in the ‘shalom’ of Your blessing (Hebrew for health, wholeness, peace, fulfillment, and so much more!) in the midst of all the chaos. As I wait upon You and surrender all to the work of the Holy Spirit in my life, You are transforming more and more into the image of Your Son. Keep going! And it is in His Majestic Name, King Jesus, I seal this prayer. Amen!

Wait for and confidently expect the LORD;
Be strong and let your heart take courage;
Yes, wait for and confidently expect the LORD.
Psalm 27:14 AMP

As another day begins with You, I can’t wait to see what adventures You have in store for me. From the ordinary to the extraordinary, I ask for Your Spirit’s help to keep renewing my mind, healing my body, and transforming my emotions to align with Yours. I want to live in Your Shalom (health, wholeness, wellness, goodness, prosperity of soul, and peace). May everything I do bring You glory as You hold this day in Your hands. Your Kingdom come, Lord! And in Your All-Sufficient Name, I pray, King Jesus. Amen!

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Dear Lord Jesus...As world events go up, down, and sideways, I am SO thankful that YOU are the ROCK and CORNERSTONE of my life! How grateful I am that when my eyes are fixed upon You, living in Your presence in the Holy Spirit’s power and standing firmly upon the authority of Your Word, I live on purpose in the abundance of Your plans for me. And...as my life can seem to go up, down, and sideways at times, You are always with me. The Holy Spirit’s supernatural gifts astound me (1 Cor. 12:7-10), and His fruit is transforming me from the inside out! (Gal. 5:22-25). Let’s get this day started in the power of Your Name, King Jesus. Amen!

As I prepare my heart to worship You, I am reminded of all that You have done for me. In turn, I pray to bless, encourage, comfort, and pray for those in need around me. I pray again for events in the Middle East and Ukraine, for multiplied numbers of folks to turn to You. May they sense Your presence as I do now. In the Name of the Everlasting King Jesus. Amen!

For he loves us with unfailing love;
the LORD's faithfulness endures forever.
Praise the LORD!
