I posted a prayer here about 2 months ago. Have been on my knees nightly since. I’ve cried, I’ve prayed out loud, begging for the Lord to save me.
I was up for a financial crime that would have destroyed my young children’s lives. I thought I stood no chance. It seemed the prosecution had their minds made up. My file was even stamped NO DEALS and I was marching to prison in my head.
I was bottoming out….beyond depressed…..trolling the worst possible outcomes on google. I asked the Lord again……..why??
Almost as if he picked up the phone himself….my phone rang. My lawyer had subpoenaed records I wasn’t aware of. He found a needle in a haystack that proved the key witness was laying!! It was something I didn’t know existed. He presented it to the prosecution….and they offered a full dismissal!!!
This has gone on for 3 years. I’ve learned very important lessons about who God wants me to be. I likely would have taken a path of greed and self catering.
Thru all of this, I’ve worked hard to be a great Dad. To help those in need and to act as the Lord would. I find it no small coincidence the timing of that call.
God is very earl, buy you HAVE to open your heart, look inside, and change if you want his help. We don’t get to see his plan. But when the time is right, he will show you the path.
I had this strong feeling tonight that part of my gratitude to the Lord was posting this, because someone in a great time of need and reassurance will come across it, and feel that inner light that only God can bring them.
You are loved and Protected, never forget that.
Return to 7 Daily Prayers to Get You Through The Week
God knew I needed to read this. Thank you for sharing your story, as it mirrors my own: the charge for a financial crime, witness lying, devastation for your children, learning to live for the Lord, trolling Google for outcomes, thankful for who you’ve become as your former path was one of greed, EVERYTHING. I pray that my final outcome is similar to yours. I have faith that God will hear and protect me and my children, family, friends, and associates wrongly embroiled in this horrible situation. You have provided a timely reminder to not give up and to glorify the Lord in all I do, all the time. Further Blessings to you!!!!
Thank you for your testimony. My husband is facing a federal crime that will affect our family. I pray daily for God’s mercy and grace. I believe in my heart that God will show up with one of the greatest miracles in my life. You have inspired me your your victory! Praise God!
