Many years ago, I made a faith promise to the Lord. I had promised to give a certain amount of money, but when the time came, I had no idea where that money was going to come from.
I prayed and trusted the Lord to provide.
One day, I pulled into the parking lot of a grocery store. When I got out of my car, there beside the wheel was a jar filled with money!
I immediately went into the store and told them that I had found some money in the parking lot. I left my information and told them that if anyone came looking for it, they could contact me. I would return it if the person could tell me the amount of money and describe the container it was in.
I waited about a week. No one ever called.
Then came the amazing part—the money in that jar was the exact amount I needed to fulfill my faith promise to the Lord.
Some may call that a coincidence. I call it an answer to prayer.
God knew the promise I had made. He knew I did not have the money to fulfill it. And He supplied exactly what I needed, right down to the amount.
Maybe you have a need today and you cannot see how it will be met. Pray. Trust God. His answer may come in a way you would never expect.
God is faithful. He knows our needs even before we ask, and He is able to provide.
“But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:19 KJV
