Prophets cay Prepare. but how do we prepare?
Not just by study but by a ready heart and mind
to receive new things from God during the time
he is purifying us. Blessed are the pure in heart
for they shall see God my bible says.
We prepare- by choosing to seek God during the
trials for what he has to say to us, instead of
constantly seeking him to deliver us from the
discomfort our flesh is experiencing.
As we go through the trial, God reveals himself,
and we begin to see him as he is.
1John says, if we have this hope,we purify ourselves.
While we know we cannot purify ourselves, we do
have to participate by receiving God’s best for us
via our prayer. Even Mary (Mother of Jesus) said
in response to a promise from an Angel:
“Let it be done to me, according to thy word.”
Nothing is automatic. We are not on some spiritual
auto-pilot, after we get Saved. We always will need
to participate with God, and cooperate with Him in
this experience we call “Our Great Salvation.”
What did God mean when he said to His Prophets’
“Brace yourself like a man and I will speak!” He
meant, prepare yourself to let your ideas about this
go out the window! Prepare to let go of your own
ideas! This is what purification really is, a separation
from the fleshly ideas- and receiving God’s ideas instead.
Love to you all! Laura Grace

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
