“You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. JAMES 4:3. This is not some kind of magical thinking. Speaking scriptures out over our situations is not like something out of the Harry Potter series.
We are not manipulating people, atmospheres, or events to get what we want; we are speaking out God’s will over them, and His laws and promises to enforce that will.
…
Once again intercession is not manipulation; it is turning on the light so those stumbling in the dark can finally find their ways to the door for themselves.
Remember, Esther didn’t just petition that the Jews would be saved—she requested they be armed and equipped to fend for themselves.” -Enoch Elliott

I was that "unpopular" wierdo kid, that didn't fit in anywhere, in High School. I guess I never knew my place in life, until Jesus took me in. I've been rejected, misunderstood, left out, bullied, abused, scandalized, and labeled. In 2002 I got on a bus and left a marraige of sixteen years, that was fraught with abuse and heartache. In school, I used to be so afraid to stand in front of the class and speak, my hands woud visibily shake, and I could not look at my audience without being terrified.
Years later, I find myself leading a school music production, speaking in front of churches, and walking around with confidence, because I know the King of Kings is at my side.
My ministry, prayers and blogs are directed toward those who feel like they were never enough. You never fit in.
If I can help you in any way, if you need a special speaker to speak hope to the hurting, or if you would like a copy of my Testimony book (Grace to the Rescue) let me know. I am here for you. I also have a new book out "Confidence".
With Love, Laura
