How An 8-Year-Old Painted This Miraculous Image of Jesus | E314 Lila Rose Show - YouTube:

Akiane didn't know who Jesus was until he revealed his face to her in a vision. At age 8, she painted what she saw and it has since become the world's most famous painting of Jesus by a living artist. But she faced backlash, deception, and theft after painting it, and she's here to tell that story.

Akiane Kramarik shares her story with Lila Rose.
She grew up dirt poor, but the love in her home always gave her a sense of possibility and childlike wonder. Her family was not religious, but she was nonetheless anointed for His purpose.
Very young, she was drawn up into His Presence and went missing for 7 hours, with police searching frantically until she re-materialized, having been shown many things.
You would think this would be all rainbows and butterflies, but her first art agent seized her painting, scratched it and refused to return it. Later, her next agent stole the painting and sold it, and she didn't get it back for 15 years, only after paying a ransom. Fortunately, her parents had one good scan and were able to reproduce the work while it was gone.
The painting was crated for all that time until it was resurrected, recalling our Lord Jesus, or the Hebrews in captivity or the Dead Sea Scrolls, among other events.
They were also led to film her at work, which was good when some accused her of faking it for money.
This level of demonic opposition shows how anointed her art is. I think one reason must be because her Jesus looks Jewish. And certainly because of the impact for the Kingdom. The Lord uses child prodigies to draw our attention, just as young Lord Jesus went to the Temple; Akiane even went missing, too!
Luke 2
International Children’s Bible45 but they did not find him. So they went back to Jerusalem to look for him there. 46 After three days they found him. Jesus was sitting in the Temple with the religious teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. 47 All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and wise answers. 48 When Jesus’ parents saw him, they were amazed. His mother said to him, “Son, why did you do this to us? Your father and I were very worried about you. We have been looking for you.”
49 Jesus asked, “Why did you have to look for me? You should have known that I must be where my Father’s work is!” 50 But they did not understand the meaning of what he said.
51 Jesus went with them to Nazareth and obeyed them. His mother was still thinking about all that had happened. 52 Jesus continued to learn more and more and to grow physically. People liked him, and he pleased God.

ps; I had always liked this depiction, and I didn't even know it was painted by Akiane. Done as an adult in 2017. BTW, her name (Ah-key-ana) was invented by her mother combining Lithuanian and Russian, which I'll say is a prophetic marker for Peace over Eastern Europe, Hallelujah!
