Laila - by Gwendolyn Porter (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Laila: God's Miracle and Our Faith was written as a testament to God's glory. He is a faithful God, and we witnessed a miracle that only He could give, and we give Him all the glory, honor, and praise.

Laila was born 24 weeks prematurely and we were told she would not live but would be born and die.

Laila's name was on prayer warriors', men and women of God's, prayer lists everywhere. There was an outpouring of powerful prayers as we stood in faith.

We had confidence in God's Word. So, we prayed that she would not die but live.

We stood firmly on God's Word. We could not let fear, doubt, or unbelief enter in.

We chose to walk by faith and not by sight, and we declared boldly God's promises found in the Bible.

Jesus, who is the same yesterday, today, and forever, raised Laila up from death to life. He did it all and it started on the cross at Calvary. He gave this miracle.

In 2005 God placed a desire in my heart to write this book, Laila: God's Miracle and our Faith, to glorify Him and to testify of His great mercy, grace, and faithfulness.

The focus is to be on Him, and the power and authority found in His Word, when believed and acted upon in faith. To declare that His Son Jesus is the same yesterday, today, and forever and that He still works miracles. To declare that death and life are in the power of the tongue, and that there is mountain-moving power in prayer, and abundantly more in the united prayers of believers, prayer warriors, and intercessors.

At the time of this publication Laila will be eighteen. We continue to pray for God's great plans and purpose for her life. We confess that He created her to do great things and to glorify Him in every area of her life.

To the readers, know God's promises, keep Him first in every area of your life, and expect to receive the manifestations of all you have prayed for, in the Name of Jesus, and in faith believing. It shall surely come to pass. Trust God. Much love.
