Jehovah can do whatever he wants.

for the sake of the person involved i will change a few names and be a little vague.. but I just had to relate this amazing experience (confirmed by me as a witness)

 

a local sister Julie, had to leave an abusive relationship (hubby not a witness) went in to temporary accommodation nowhere near her congregation. At the same time and unrelated, we lost a couple of meeting places for field service and thinking of joining a couple of groups. (really not ideal for many reasons) Our Julie is praying to Jehovah.. for peace of mind and, get this, a home for her children, in the middle of the territory where she promised to use as a group, if she is asked!

 

But where will she get a place that ideally has four bedrooms (large family and big age differences)at a price she could afford to rent? Most here struggle to get anything cheap let alone 4 bedrooms! She is using her time wisely and going on the ministry despite the travelling being extensive. She found a charity that promised to help toward a deposit. Started looking and whilst on the territory one of her little girls says, 'look mom this is for rent'.. She phoned about it there and then; A four bed home and amazingly the rent is more affordable than expected.  Back to the charity they promise to give her 600 of the 1600 deposit. She goes back to the agent and signs for it. The charity comes back and says she signed to quickly and refuses the help.. Disaster now.. Julie promised to rent and now will lose her deposit and is now homeless!

 

In the next few minutes (yes, minutes) she gets a What's app from a good friend Jo, who is where the need is greater (south america area) Jo sold up everything and lives on a shoestring there.. (she has no money) she asks our Julie; how is the house hunting? She tells Jo the full story and the desperate plight she is now in and to Julie's amazement, Jo says  'give me your bank details and I'll transfer £600 right now'. Julie is amazed and wonders, where is this money coming from ..she has none?

 

In another seemingly unrelated 'coincidence'. Jo has a fleshly sister back home, who owes her money and despite constant reminders  never got it back.. She is useless at handling money and could not be trusted to give it back; there was always some 'emergency.' Jo leaves the country to serve in place of greater need and forgets about the money.. Two hour previous to talking to Julie, Jo's mother tells Jo what had been happening back home, in the UK. Jo's sister had come by some money 'unexpectedly' She is about to squander it, again when the mother says. You can't treat Jo like this.. You have to give Jo her money back, right now! So she does and transfers the money to Jo's account (£600.00 exactly) and the mother tells Jo. It is only a couple of hours later that Jo decides to phone Julie.

 

Next, Julie is trying to get some help in her situation. She asks the local benefits office if she could get 'any' help. The person asks her 'why are you not claiming your due allowances for her children'? Julie say she didn't think she qualified. Yes of course, she is told and we'll back date it for you. It comes to the £1000 she needs for the rent deposit and now she can use the money allocated for that that rent deposit, to get some furniture in the place.

 

The congregation have all offered her more than she needs and practical help in cleaning and touching up.. but she's getting there with Jehovah's help.

 

You couldn't write this as fiction!.. Jehovah really does look out for us.

2 Chron 16:9 For the eyes of Jehovah are roving about through all the earth to show his strength in behalf of those whose heart is complete toward him

yes that is how i felt when it was related by her.

 

These are the things to keep in our heart for when the next problem pops up and especially through the GT. No wonder Jesus says STOP being anxious! 

 

reminds me of this favourite scripture: Rom 8:32 Since he did not even spare his own Son but handed him over for us all, will he not also, along with him, kindly give us all other things?

I have been on the receiving end of many instances like this.  Very faith strengthening, thanks for sharing.  Its a great reminder of all the times he's come through for me too! ❤️

I really needed to read this! Thank you!  Going through alot with my husband and son. I want to runaway😕 and just live by myself. Yes, I know Jehovah is stronger/powerful than Satan but at times I know I'm on Jehovah's side but some way or the other, I fold and want to just leave because physically it's the two of them. I KNOW my Father is with me, I just have to stop being anxious and continue praying fervently to him. Thanks for letting me vent on this post.

sometimes we feel isolated; thinking no one understands 'our' situation.

 

a CO's talk put me right on that; (1 Peter 5:9)  But take YOUR stand against him, solid in the faith, knowing that the same things in the way of sufferings are being accomplished in the entire association of YOUR brothers in the world. 

 

He said someone somewhere is praying on your behalf having had a successful outcome for the same thing. If I know Julie right, she will be praying those like you, to be blessed in a similar fashion or in your particular circumstances. Whatever it is, it will be tailored for you. 

 

(Psalm 18:25) 25 With someone loyal you will act in loyalty;. . . This is the LAW! Jehovah views it as done.
