How Because He is Enough #IAmEnough Began
Starting with a vision...
​
In 2015 while talking to her mother Minister Leah, now Elder Leah, received the vision of starting a 31 Day Movement of women encouraging women. At the end of those 31 days, there was going to be a conference. She could see the vision so plain and clear and it was going to start on the 1st of May which was her grandmother’s birthday.
God had already begun sending women to Minister Leah who had similar stories to hers,
women who suffered from low self-esteem, who had been or were in abusive relationships, etc. These 31 days of encouragement were not to stay local, it was to go worldwide.
​
But the vision that Holy Spirit showed her was big, she was overwhelmed and a bit intimidated and she froze. She did nothing.
How could she do such a great big thing? So she didn’t.
But as many of you know Holy Spirit, being as gentle as He is, won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to do. But He knew she wanted to do it and He knew it was a part of her purpose so He kept poking her. She had this nagging in her spirit, and not nagging in a wrong way, but this pressure was poking in her spirit to go forth. One night before she went to sleep Min Leah, succumbing to the spiritual nagging, told Holy Spirit exactly what she was feeling... overwhelmed and she didn’t know where or how to start.
She told Him that if this was something that she was supposed to do, then He would have to tell her/to show her where to start, how to start.
At approximately 1:30 AM she was awakened by a vision He gave her on where to start. She immediately wrote down everything He gave her, the fire was now burning. That following year she created the group and began posting devotionals as led by God. She kicked off the 31-Day Movement on May 1, 2016, with not even a handful of women participating but she pressed. Holy Spirit began giving her more to write and say and sending her more women to minister to. At the end of 2016, she was led to lead prayer for the last seven days of the year with the group which turned into what we now know as 6 AM prayer.
In 2017 the Lord showed her it was time to move outside of the confinements of Facebook and the Because He Is Enough #IAmEnough Annual Conference was birthed.
What started as a conversation with her mother and a 31-Day Movement has now blossomed into the Because He is Enough #IAmEnough ministry.
The best is yet to come.
