Another story about prayer.

My second child was pregnant with her second
child.

She had been "told by the Lord" that everything
would be fine at the time of delivery.

On her day of delivery, though, there seemed to
be problems. She wasn't dialiating right. The
doctor had decided it was time for a C-Section.
So, they took her to the operating room.
Still, I heald onto the faith of the Lord's Word
to my daughter.

Her mother-in-law and father-in-law were there
and they kept saying negative things that just
set me off, spiritually. They knew what she
had been told by the Lord about this time. I was "rightously angry" at their doubt.

So, I took my oldest daughter by the hand
and said quietly,"lets go."

We went into the lobby of the hospital to pray.
Finding an unoccupied corner, we started
praying. My oldest daughter just held my
hands and agreed with all my prayer. (She
told me later that she would not let her mind
touch the doubt that was trying to enter.)

It was about 10-15 minutes that we prayed,
until I had a sense of victory. Then we went
back up the elevators to the maternity floor.

It wasn't but about 5-10 minutes that my
son-in-law came out to tell us we had another
grandson. He was in the nursery and doing
fine!

His partnts wanted to know how this was possible there had not been enough time for a C-Section to be preformed!

As it turned out, the doctor decided
"at the last minute" to check one more time to see if she was dialating any more.

Glory to God! She gave "natural birth" right there on the operating table!!

Never, Never, Never doubt the word spoken to
you by the Lord!!! He will keep it!!!!!

More than that, never, never, never let some
one elses doubt rob you of your PROMISE!
