GOD CAN
My friend, her husband and four children bought this four-bed house in Wimbledon some 12yrs ago. They were able to pay their mortgage conveniently without default as they both worked. Sadly, both lost their jobs late last year and piled up the mortgage in arrears. Prayed all manners of prayers with fasting, did all could be possibly done legally, sort every avenue for a respite but no help came through.
The court gave a judgement against them in June and were given 3months to pay up all the arrears or face re-possession. As at 20th September, at the expiration of the court order, they were still unable to pay. A notice for bailiff's visit for 28th of September arrived. Those were eight days of rigorous and exhaustive praying. We prayed until there was no more prayers to be prayed.
It was obvious we all got depressed about it. Friday night/Saturday morning, this family prepared for the now inevitable worse scenario. Yes, the bailiffs arrived on Saturday morning but 'mistakenly' they knocked on the next door, banged and forced the door open on an Irish elderly lady who was still in her bed. She came out in shock to find they were meant to evict her next door neighbour. She was furious. She called the police to report her home broken into. The police stopped the bailiffs action and demanded her door be replaced by today Tuesday. (My friend said this old lady is very nosy and would not want her to know her family issues.) Well, she now knows. Troubled all through weekend,
The old lady knocked on the couples home early hours of yesterday and offered to pay (not lend) all the outstanding arrears totalling £9,775. She wrote off this debt by 11am yesterday. No more bailiffs and they now own their home again. Her husband got a letter this morning for a new job.
Fearing the worst has led many on suicide path. The 'worst scenario' may also be a part of the solution.
God can never run out of miraculous ideas that can produce that spectacular victory you've been longing to have.
Welcome to October, prepare to harvest your miracles.
Whatever you are trusting God for, never fear the worst scenario.
Keep this in mind:
".......“Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?" (Jeremiah 32:27)
