I would like to ask all prayer warrior's out there to pray for the Lord's guidence of the situation and everything will work out.
I previously worked for a private company which delt with private/corporate/sports team jets. Also at this job we rented cars out from a national known car rental agency to customers and flight crew members. I have rented from this company a total of 10 or 11 times. Everytime I rented I paid for the rental except one time I had to leave out of town and my car was not running well. The one time I knew where the keys were kept and took the keys as well as the car and was gone for one week. I returned the car to my place of employment and heard nothing until about three weeks later when I was called into the boss office and they said they saw me on camera using this car. I admitted to it and was terminated. I felt sooo bad about it and prayed for forgiveness over the situation. Two weeks later I went on a missions trip for three weeks and when I returned I was interviewed by airport investigator. While I was on my missions trip I found out that I was accepted into Masters Commission which is an intensive nine month drama/youth ministry school. They pray over all applications and only accept the ones God tells them they need for that year. I was excited about this and know God has great plans for my life. I feel I changed soo much from this mission's trip and I'm excited to start my ministry through this school. So once I finished interviewing to the investigator he said if anything happens you will know in less than a month. That was in late June. On Friday Aug. 15th I recieved a letter summoning me to District Court for Felony charge and theft of motor vehicle. I was super depressed and sick to my stomach as I've never had anythign like this happen to me before. The court date is the day I'm to leave to ministry school. I've been told by several different people who know alot about laws that if I get a good lawyer I should be able to plea to the prosecutor to pay a fine. I have clean background.
I know I was wrong for what I did and I feel as satan is trying to prevent me from doing God's will. He is trying so hard to do that but I REFUSE to give him the benefit. I ask for you prayer warrior's to pray for me for comfort of the situation, not to doubt what God can do, wisdom and strength, wisdom in finding the right lawyer. I've been searching for a Christian Lawyer but there's none in the criminal law field in Minnesota. I have been reading powerful scriptures and my friend told me to PUSH. Pray Until Something Happens. It's very powerful what God and his word can do. Thank You for your prayers.

Lord, I pray that everything will work out according to your plan. I pray that you will help Chris find a good lawyer and that everything will work out.
Amen.

Heavenly Father, I come before you in this matter and lay this problem at your Cross.
You know all the circumstances and you know the heart of Chris. You know the plans and the future. I pray Lord that you would intervene in this situation and be a very present force in this court room. Bring the judges and attorneys of YOUR choosing and give them the sight to see the entire situation rather than just looking at the "crime" and persecuting Chris as a "criminal". I ask that you prevent the "enemy" from entering this court room. Find favor for Chris that he may continue in his work for you. I pray that the end result would be restitution rather than loosing his freedom.
I ask that you surround Chris with your love, and comfort his soul in this time of crisis.
We know you have already forgiven him and we pray that you would send angels to assist him in his battle.
In Jesus Name....amen

Chris I understand your circumstance more than you know. This year I was accused with felony theft, I had mismanged funds of a non-profit organization that I was volunteering for. I did not steal the money as they charged me with, but I put the org. in debt and they felt that it was enough for an indictment, next thing you know, I've got a warrant out for my arrest. I did however find a wonderful lawyer, who was really helping and If I had gone to trial, I know that I would have won, but then satan stepped in and placed another obstacle in my way, once the D.A. saw that we were finding evidence to clear me, he and the people who were pressing these charges decided to use my children against me as well as other kids that I had hired over the summer to cashiering work for me. I had to choose, win at all cost no matter who it hurts or admit guilt to something I did not do. Obviously you can guess what I did. I pled and was sentenced to 5 years probabtion, deferred adjudication. Which means that on my record it will show that I was arrested for a felony, but not convicted. I also have to do 400 hours community service and pay back money that I did not even take. But I have faith in knowing that what I did was right, I know that I am innocent, my family knows, my true friends know, but most of all God knows. He has forgiven you, and you have done the right thing by asking for forgiveness, but those who do not forgive will not be forgiven, they will be judged the same way that they judge. Keep faith, everything will be OK. I know that it may seem hopeless now, but God will prevail and so will you and so will I. I'm not just telling you that, but myself as well, cause I know that sometimes I can get to feeling really low and frustrated about all of this and the humilation I have had to indure at the hands of my accusors, but not just me, my family as well. But God will not leave us, and life will go on, just hang in there and if you want to talk, I will listen. Keep the faith!! God Loves You...

I finally found a good christian lawyer through christian leagal society then click on the state you need.
He understands my situation and basically said prayer will get you through this.
Basically we are going to try to get the charges dropped out of court and pay the fine. I'm still praying and asking for your prayer that all this works out to the best of his glory, that when people see us and hear about me attending school to go into the ministry field the annointed and presence of Jesus will touch their lives and they will have good judgement when the final outcome is revealed. I am scheduled to leave to Springfield, Missouri on Aug. 29th and from St.Paul, MN it's about an 8.5 to 9 hour drive.
Even if it's handled out of court, I still need to show up on the 29th and prove that it was settled out of court and then go to sheriff's office for photograph and fingerprinting. According to the lawyer it should only take and hour but they like to waste people's times by keeping them down there for four to five hours until everyone has been fingerprinted and photographed. I am asking for your strong prayers as the bible says if two or more gather in prayer there I am also...so pray that Jesus will provide me with a quick and speedy process as he knows my situation I am believing that he will answer our prayers.
The school officially starts on Saturday August 30th at 930am. If I left here at 5pm with a nine hour drive I'd be there by 3am. So Lord I give my needs in your hands Lord and I am believing that you will take the situation and handle it. You know my heart and the goal I've had for a long time to go into ministry for you and use my gifts of drama and youth to the best of my ability for your kingdom. Lord as you know the only way you can attend this school is by donations or having the total amount. You know that I believe in you that you will provide the right amount of money for me to attend. My goal was to raise 3600 and I have 2200. I am so close Lord...I know it's your will for me to attend this school and I pray for finances, peace of mind and heart in both situations. Lord I have surrendered it all to you and it is in your hands. Be with me, my family members spread out in the U.S. and give everyone peace and comfort through these next several days and allow everyone to know that it is in YOUR HANDS and we just praise you and give you thanks for you make miracles happen. In Jesus name we pray. AMEN!!
