Jehovah Jireh, you are the one in whom I Trust. You provided the Perfect Lamb for my Eternal Salvation! How could I doubt your provision of all I need? As it is written “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in Glory in Christ Jesus”! Thank you, Jesus! HALLELUJAH! Amen.

I have always been a fan of Jesus; I’ve known him since the womb (I’ll share that nugget another time). I became a follower of Christ February 27, 2021. I walked into a men’s group I had been invited to and the Holy Spirit hit me in the chest like a bolt of lightning. I was never a tither. My Mom was. It used to make me mad. I’m wearing Rags and a girl’s coat (I am a man by the way), but Jesus gets his 10%, Errrrr. For the years I did attend a church, while being a fan, I did not tithe because of the resentment. I had been able to save $639 of $674 to buy new suspension parts for my car. It was the beginning of March 2021, and I expected to have the funds by the end of month. On Wednesday He said, “give that 639 bucks”. Naturally I dismissed that as just me feeling good. He wouldn’t let it go. I argued with every reason in the book from Wednesday-Saturday. Saturday morning, I got up and went in front room to my recliner. As soon as my bum hit the cushion the conviction was so strong, I grabbed the handle to retract footrest, slammed it and stood up quick saying out loud “Alright, I’m going”. I went to Walmart and got a money order for $639. The following morning, I went to Church for the first time in over a decade and dropped that money order in the box on the back wall. I Sat down and waited patiently but nervous someone was going to talk to me and I would offend them immediately. After Worship the Pastor got up and started talking about Tithing. I was not only blessed but felt confirmed to be there. I got home and sat down and immediately my phone rang. it was my neighbor on the right asking me to come over. After we exchanged some pleasantries, she handed me an envelope. In that envelope was a cashier’s check made to cash for $750. I cannot express the humility I felt in that moment. I went home broken by his Grace and Love and just sobbed in Thanksgiving. A knock at my door. I yelled “come in” while wiping my face and my neighbor on the left was standing there handing me a folded up $100 bill saying, “I just felt led to come give you this”. Niagra Falls got nothing on me. In my Humbled and Thankful state, he showed me how he has always provided for me, especially when I chose to Trust Him. It’s not about the money. They print more every day and there is a portion of provision with my name on it. It’s about Trusting in Him, my Shepard, I will not be in need, my cup overflows! Certainly, goodness will follow me all the days of my life, and my Dwelling will be in the House of the Lord Forever! Father, I ask your comfort and provision over the person reading this. That your Truth and Provision are made evident in their lives and your Kingdom is MULTIPLIED to your Glory in Jesus Name! Amen.
