Elisha Ryan Williams! His name means God is my Salvation and little King. I love it. When Jimmy and I were naming him we took a lot of time deciding. We wanted his name to be strong. We wanted him to represent what we believe in. This name was perfect and it was perfect for him. If you know my son you are probably laughing. If you know how God works you would say WOW what an awesome God we serve. I pray for my kids daily. About every six months I write out a list of things that I want to see in my children or things that they need to work on and also protection, and that they make friends with people that will be the right fit in their lives and people that need to experience more of
Christ Love.
A few years ago Eli started to ask to See Jesus. He said he wanted to see him. So Jimmy and encouraged him to ask God to reveal himself to Eli. He prayed this daily and one morning when he got up he said, "mom I saw Jesus last night." It was so sweet. Then a month ago he shared the plan of salvation with a friend and that blew me away. Now my little guy enjoys writing in his journal and sitting and reading his Bible. I love it. It actually brings me to tears. I know that God has such an amazing plan for my little Boy. I know that he will be called out, and I believe he already has. I will continue to pray for him and I will continue to encourage him to share Christ's love in any way he can.
Lord Thank you so much for making my son. I pray that you will equip us as his mother and father to be what he needs to be. I pray that we will be that example he needs to grow closer to you . I pray that you will give wisdom and strength to battle the fight that is before him. I pray that his armor is on and he is ready.! Thank you Lord for Elisha Ryan. He is gift! This is the verse that I am praying over my son!! I know he is warrior!
He is a warrior for Christ!
"Be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
"Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.
"And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints...." Ephesians 6:10-18
