God's provision is remarkable. We've been corresponding with a couple of brothers in South Africa about vehicles. The currency now is R10.08 to the $1 US, which is not good for them but great for us. We thought maybe it was a good time to see if we could get more for our money in the purchase of a used Toyota Landcruiser 4x4. One of the brothers wrote back:
"Hi Sean,
Thank you for your prayers. Me and my Dad spoke about our vehicle and you can have it for what we paid for it, which was R163,000 (roughly $16,000)..."
Needless to say, we were really pleased. The price this brother was offering for his vehicle was easily half of what we expected to pay. But the Lord wasn't finished yet. He kept working on this guy for two more hours until he emailed again:
"Hi,
Sean please ignore the previous email. I wasn't obedient to the voice of the Lord. We have decided to give the vehicle to you to do your work. We prefer to bank in the bank of GOD rather than depending on the world and dollars."
So, once again, the Lord has provided far more abundantly than all we could ask or think (Eph. 3:20). In fact, He was responding before the request even left our lips (Isa. 65:24) Our Master and Commander has assumed ALL responsibility for our provision. As His servant soldiers, our only obligation is to obey and trust Him to take care of us. It really is that simple.
