Miracle - Call to Missions (Elisheba)

God is so Awesome!!! Lately my daughter Lila has really been on my heart. Last weekend, all of my girls (Lila, Megan and Andrea) and I got to attend a conference called Generation Unleashed. At this conference, Andrea and Megan seemed to be touch by God but Lila did not seem to get it. Also, there were some other things that had me concerned as well. So over this last week I began to pray for Lila that God would break through to her and that she would know the reality of God in her life. This morning God answered my prayers in a very powerful way. Toward the end of worship three different prophetic words were given. I paid close attention to the first two but on the third I got distracted by some people that I saw come in. After I went and said hi to the people who had come in, I looked back up to the front and I realized that the word that was being spoken was being spoken to Lila and two other girls. I immediately tuned in to what was being said. It ended up being a powerful time of ministry for the girls. When the ministry was over I went up to give Lila a hug. We stood there for a little while worshiping together. Then I asked her, "what is going through your head right now?" She looked at me and it seemed as if she could barely get it out, but she said, "I feel like God is telling me when I grow up I am going to be a missionary to Brazil." When she said that I was overwhelmed by the Spirit of God, because I have always felt called to the nations. In 2001, I had gone to Youth With a Mission in Chico, CA. While I was there, I was in a prayer meeting where we were praying for Brazil. During the prayer meeting some things were happening in the Spirit that are hard to articulate. I guess the best way to put it is that I was birthing things in the spirit for Brazil and in that prayer meeting it was prophesied that I would be a mother to Brazil. Of course at that time I thought it meant something like I would go to Brazil and start an orphanage or something like that. But when Lila said that she felt called to be missionary to Brazil, that word that was spoken to me 7 years ago became extremely clear. I think it is so awesome that God not only answered my prayer for my daughter, but He also ministered to me by showing me that the word that was spoken over my life had not died, it is just going to play out a little differently than I imagined.
