Don’t Lose Hope

Prayer matters. People of God, this is how we fight. Ephesians 6:10-20. When this Prayer Wall began in July of 2020, I had a dream that our government was trashed. There were listening devices, like headphones and wires and other large items all over the ground in disarray at the entrance to the structure ofContinue reading “Don’t Lose Hope”

Wedding Planner

This is the continuation of a word from the Lord for His bride: The bride is not the wedding planner. I am. That wedding is coming sooner than you think. All must be surrendered to Me. To be united with Me means to be divided from the world, rejected by those who do not surrender.Continue reading “Wedding Planner”

Which Side Are You On?

My bride must pick My side in these days to come or she will not make it through. These days will be like no other days ever experienced on Earth. For the evil is deepening, the darkness growing thicker, as it connects together all across the globe. My light must be stronger. My bride mustContinue reading “Which Side Are You On?”

Prayer for Taiwan

Tension has risen in East Asia since Friday, as China has flown 149 aircraft inside Taiwan’s air defense zone, including 56 yesterday. (Communist China considers democratic Taiwan a breakaway province.) Let’s pray now, in the midst of earthly conflict, for God’s divine purposes. Lord, we thank You for the freedom Christians have had to worshipContinue reading “Prayer for Taiwan”

Afghanistan Today

Here is an update on the current situation in Afghanistan. Let’s continue to pray…. Lord, give those bent on violence and evil such a powerful encounter with Love that they fall on their faces before You as Paul did, repent, and become agents good instead. Acts 9. Grow within every lost person in Afghanistan aContinue reading “Afghanistan Today”

Rise up and LOVE

What earthly causes have made you anxious or angry these days? The Lord is calling us now to rise up out of our fear and hatred. And LOVE. The issues we are fighting about are of this earth. They are temporary. Fix your eyes on what is eternal. Hebrews 12:1-3. When you get to Heaven,Continue reading “Rise up and LOVE”

Do Not Fear. Come Up Here.

Today, I feel the Lord bringing us back to this word from Him originally posted May 18, 2021: My child, I know it’s been hard. I’ve seen what you’re going through. In fact, I knew it would happen before it ever did, and I have a plan for bringing the good out of what theContinue reading “Do Not Fear. Come Up Here.”

Headache or Heaven

When this messy world is so up in your face, it’s hard to focus on eternal things, isn’t it?  For instance, a headache can take precedence over being loving and kind.  But a headache is temporal. It’s very real pain I have to go through right now, but it’s not going to follow me toContinue reading “Headache or Heaven”

Toppling Idols

One morning, the Lord awakened me to the song Endless Alleluia, and a vision of idols toppling to the ground on their faces. He spoke to me about how so often we try to “fix” our “problem” somehow on our own, as if our willpower is strong enough. It’s not, of course. You and IContinue reading “Toppling Idols”

Throng Before the Throne

In my quiet time one day, the Lord gave me a vision. As I worshipped Him before His throne, He said to me, “Turn around.”  I turned to see thousands of people joining me there at His feet in worship. I recognized some of them. The taxi driver who came to the Lord on oneContinue reading “Throng Before the Throne”

My Promise Still Stands

As we passed the one year mark since beginning this Prayer Wall, the Lord has taken me back to those prayers and dreams from 2020. These themes have emerged since: This was His answer today, when I lifted those themes back up to Him: Those who will truly pray for the things of My heartContinue reading “My Promise Still Stands”

A Prayer from Isaiah 51:6

Lord, in the midst of the trying circumstances so many of us are facing right now, lift our eyes up to look to You. This earth is passing away. Our time here is so short. But Your salvation lasts forever and Your righteousness never fails. Help us to rise up above all the dissension andContinue reading “A Prayer from Isaiah 51:6”

No Competition

Do you struggle with feeling like you don’t measure up, especially when you’re around those who are strong in the Lord? Like your relationship with God is somehow inferior? Like the floor slants higher and closer to the throne for them, and meanwhile, you’re struggling just to have a quiet time? I feel the LordContinue reading “No Competition”

Healing and Rebuilding

Father, for those still fighting fires, we ask for Your protection and wisdom. Guide them to those in danger, and make the way clear for rescue.

Take Our Breath Away

This morning, the Lord awakened me to a vision of a dancing fountain. I saw how beautiful we are together in Him, as His Spirit moves us this way and that. Then, as a powerful burst of water spurted high into the sky, onlookers stopped and stared. Lord, take our breath away. Dance to theContinue reading “Take Our Breath Away”

Deciding God’s Way

Today, I feel the Lord urging us to pray for those who are being pressed into tight corners and are having to make huge life decisions. Lord, give us wisdom, please. Help us not lean on our own understanding, but to seek You in all our ways, letting You direct our paths. We can’t seeContinue reading “Deciding God’s Way”

The Great Invitation

As we came up on our one-year anniversary of the Prayer Wall, I went through a strange night, awakening over and over to the thick presence of the Lord in the room and an inaudible voice breaking through my sleep to urge, “Go higher…. Press deeper…. Push further…. Higher up….” Awakening. The Great Invitation. NotContinue reading “The Great Invitation”

The Miracle of Mercy

As I pray for those still in danger in Afghanistan, I am reminded of our own escape from the closed country where we served the Lord for many years. Everything changed in an instant. Our security was breached. Our names were made known to those who seek to harm Christians. And we had to flee,Continue reading “The Miracle of Mercy”

Be the Light in Our Darkness, Lord

Let’s continue to pray for those facing power outages in Louisiana and other areas, those still facing fires (even new ones now) in the west, and others in our country who are anxious and grieving losses.

Lord, Empower Us to Love

Pray for protection, courage, and empowering from the Lord for those who stand for what is right and good, but who are persecuted relentlessly by those who disagree, who have been blinded by the enemy and push his purposes, rather than God’s. Lord, please make us strong and courageous. Teach us what it means toContinue reading “Lord, Empower Us to Love”

The Arsenal

The days are coming, and soon are here, when the world as you know it will change in violent ways.

Those who are committed to MeContinue reading “The Arsenal”

Christians Offer Relief and Love to Hurricane Victims

With more than 1 million without power and more than 600,000 without water in the intense Louisiana heat, many Christian families who have generators or other means of electricity have invited those who are stranded into their homes and are now loving them into Jesus’ arms. “He is sending to us the 25-30-year-old unbelievers,” oneContinue reading “Christians Offer Relief and Love to Hurricane Victims”

Rescue Us, O God. We Need You.

In honor of so many who have died and who continue to face grave danger, we gathered in silent prayer yesterday at this Wall. Our tears have wet the ground where we kneel. Our cries have burned within our throats. Our hearts have been laid bare before You. Father, have mercy, please. Still so manyContinue reading “Rescue Us, O God. We Need You.”

Praying Through this Collage of Crisis

Our hearts are grieved as we pray through so many crises in our nation and the world today.

The One Who Rides on the Clouds

Hurricane Ida is now at a Category 4 as it approaches landfall in Louisiana near New Orleans today, marking the 16th anniversary of Katrina’s destruction of that same city.

Continued Prayer for Afghanistan

I am still so grieved, as I’m sure you are, too.

At least 500 families from CrusoContinue reading “Pray for Those Affected by Floods”

Completely Yours

Several years ago, the Lord led me to begin a new habit. Before I opened my eyes or got out of bed or thought any other thought, I would think on Jesus and hand Him my day. He took me on a long, beautiful journey of surrendering not only every day and plan, but everyContinue reading “Completely Yours”

Pray for Haiti

I’m re-posting this today (originally posted on August 16), because the number of deaths is now over 2,189, with about 12,268 people injured, and dozens of people still missing. The 7.2 earthquake destroyed more than 7,000 homes and damaged more than 12,000, leaving about 30,000 families homeless, according to official estimates. Schools, offices and churchesContinue reading “Pray for Haiti”

Persecution in Afghanistan

Father, as the resurgent Taliban in Afghanistan goes door-to-door executing Christians who will not renounce their faith, please rise up and fight for Your children.

With the fires in Algeria this week, let’s pray for those who have lost homes and loved ones, that God will meet them in powerful ways, comfort them, supply their needs, give them a hunger to know Him, and make a way for them to hear the Good News, know His endless love and receiveContinue reading “Pray for Algeria”

Living for the MORE

“There is more to this life than the money, the house, the status, the strongholds you cling to so desperately that leave you empty. There’s a reason for your loneliness, anxious thoughts, emptiness. Because nothing of this world will ever be enough. You need the MORE you were created for. I am the More. IContinue reading “Living for the MORE”

Mature in Love

“My beloved, I know how you’ve longed for love from that person, those people, who have not returned it in the way you desired.

On Fear of Man

Isaiah 51:12b-13a How many times have you made decisions based on fear?

Off My High Horse and on My Face

A real-live battle between good and evil rages, and we are in the midst of it. Ephesians 6:10-12. We have a real enemy, and it’s not our brother or sister. The minute we begin attacking God’s people, we have switched sides. Revelation 12:10-12. Feeling justified in our attacks against others is a normal enemy tactic.Continue reading “Off My High Horse and on My Face”

Help Us Stand, Lord

This morning, the Lord woke me up with this illustration urging us to not give up the fight. Lord, give us courage to stand in Your mighty power. Ephesians 6:10-20. To not give up the fight. We need You, O God. Long has this battle raged. We call on You now to lift the cloudContinue reading “Help Us Stand, Lord”

Don’t Switch Sides

I know you’re hurting, and things feel out of control. I see your anger and your need to put things right. But in your anger, do not sin. Ephesians 4:26. Remember, your battle is not to be heard or for people to agree with you. It’s not for others to do what you want orContinue reading “Don’t Switch Sides”

Pray for China

With recent floods in China this week, Henan Province is reeling with devastation. Let’s pray for those who have lost loved ones. China has jumped six places from last year’s World Watch List.

Pursuing Prayer

Quiet Times with God

What distracts you from having a quiet time every day? Or from breaking away for a personal retreat alone with God every now and then? Remember, the enemy’s main aim is to keep you from praying, to draw you away from God, to stop you from bringing Him glory. That means the best way toContinue reading “Quiet Times with God”

Rays of the Son

Safety in Surrender

What have you been holding back from the only One Who can make all things work together for good? Romans 8:28.

Help Us See, Set Us Free

Most strongholds feel so “normal” we don’t realize they’re there. Even when friends confront us on ways we’re hurting others, we deny we have a problem or blame someone else. That’s because the enemy likes to guard the ways he controls us with lies like, “That’s just the way I am.” “This is just theContinue reading “Help Us See, Set Us Free”

Transformation by the Word

What are you doing to go to deeper depths with Christ? How are you making sure what you’re learning in the Word isn’t just head knowledge, but heart transformation?

A Hope and a Future

Let’s pray Jeremiah 29:11-14 over our country today, asking God to bring us back from all the ways we’ve been captive to the enemy, so our children (and we) will have a hope and a future of abundant life, rather than destruction (John 10:10). Lord, You have given us a choice, because You are loving.Continue reading “A Hope and a Future”

Humble, We Are Heard & Healed

In the beginning, as the Lord first began forming this Prayer Wall a year ago, He gave me a dream one night of a great host, each with a flame of fire from the altar in their hands, waiting and ready for the prayers of the saints. (Revelation 8:1-5) They were solemn, expectant. For theContinue reading “Humble, We Are Heard & Healed”

Growing in Love

In Matthew 22:37-40, Jesus gave this one command in two parts: LOVE. Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind. And love others as you love yourself.

For those of us who are weary of the fight, who have struggled for so long to grasp something we want so desperately, but that continues to seem just out of reach….  I felt the Lord saying once again, “I see you.

Family Unity for Ministers

I grew up overseas, as the daughter of missionaries. Many of my MK (missionary kid) friends have excelled in life. They feel at home, no matter where they are in the world, and the Lord uses them in powerful ways. In stark contrast, other MK friends have left the faith and made devastating choices. AfterContinue reading “Family Unity for Ministers”

Rest

My beloved bride, today I’m calling you to rest in Me.

Leading through Love – Matthew 22:37-40

Satan wants to keep us so busy with even good causes that we forget the eternal thing that matters most: Love. 1 John 4:8.

So many marriages, families, teams,Continue reading “Leading through Love – Matthew 22:37-40”

Don’t Give in to Distractions

I had a series of dreams last night. In each one, I was given a precious gift from the Lord.

Good News for an Abundant Life

There is only one God. He is the Creator of the Universe, infinite, all-powerful, perfect, holy. He created us because He loves us and wants us to enjoy Him and love others through His love. That is our whole reason for being. But sin, our prideful, selfish thoughts and actions separate us from this holyContinue reading “Good News for an Abundant Life”

Every Nation Under Heaven

In Acts 2, during Pentecost (which we celebrated yesterday), the Spirit came upon the apostles like fire, and they began preaching in the tongues of those gathered there “from every nation under heaven” (Acts 2:5), leading thousands to faith in Christ. Those languages and countries are many of the very places in the world thatContinue reading “Every Nation Under Heaven”

A Third of Us

Did you know that 1/3 of the world has been denied access to the Good News? That’s right. Nearly 2.3 billion people are cut off from hearing Jesus’ name.

Missionaries are forbidden, Christians are persecuted, and seekersContinue reading “A Third of Us”

Echoing the God of Revival

God is so sweet the way He confirms whatever He is speaking to our hearts. My friend Rachel calls it His “echoes.” I love that word.

Broken for Our Sin

Today, on Maundy Thursday, we think on the Last Supper, the prophetic bread broken that night to symbolize how the Bread of Life would soon be broken.
