Writing these Prayer Nuggets has been such a blessing from the Lord, as He has had me live the lessons I have shared with you each month over the last six years. When the website was updated last fall, I had to re-read all the Nuggets to add pertinent web info for easier searching online. [...]
In last month’s lesson, Prepare for Prayer, we looked at how important it is for our minds and born-again spirits to be in agreement before we begin to pray and intercede for others. Verses were offered for contemplation, which can help increase the level of intimacy with the Lord, as well as the effectiveness of [...]
I suspect what I share with you in this paragraph will sound much like your own life, though the specifics will vary. I’ve been very busy with all the regular spiritual endeavors: consistent participation in several prayer groups, in addition to a couple of other personal prayer assignments from the Lord; daily quiet time, with [...]
In last month’s issue of Prayer Nuggets, I shared with you a part of the Father’s heart for me in the midst of painful circumstances, when I wasn’t able to pray appropriately. When all I could do was cry out to my Daddy, He comforted me and “held” me, restoring me to His peace. Then [...]
What do you do when you are up against a wall with nowhere to go? Maybe there is a terrible doctor’s report, a loved one has strayed so far that you have lost all hope for their return, a major financial need goes unmet though you’ve prayed for God’s provision, or the world seems to [...]

I love it when the Lord reiterates something He has spoken to my heart, but in the reiteration helps me see a much broader application than I originally understood. The most recent example happened when I began to pray about an issue being discussed by our lawmakers in Washington, D.C. – the issue of marriage [...]
As I began to write, the Lord made clear to me that the important thing for this Prayer Nugget is to let you read of my encounter with Him, and then meditate on it with the Scriptures for your own fresh personal revelation of and from Him. So I offer a prayer for you before [...]
Ps 46:10 NIV “Be still, and know that I am God . . .” Would you agree that most of us have no problem staying busy, working on either physical or mental activities? How many of us who fit that category, however, find it just as easy to be still, both physically and mentally? When [...]
What do you do when you pray for someone who is in any kind of need? Actually, the better question would be, “What are you thinking as you pray for that person?” Do you have the Father’s viewpoint of that person when you pray? John 3:17 (AMP) “For God did not send the Son into [...]
