Young Man blessed after losing job
Share
I just finished your book The Awesome Power of Blessing, while eating take out, this afternoon. I had folded over favourite pages to go back over for study/reflection. I then went to the supermarket and there was a young man begging for money outside the store. He and his mother were trying to manage financially as he just lost his job.
I gave him some money and chatted with him (having what I had just read, fresh in my mind) I was in “the blessing mode.” I then asked to pray for him (out of habit) and then my prayer for him was more of a blessing. From asking God to do something to speaking with authority what God Himself might say. The words just flowed out of my mouth.
What I remember saying is that God will show him how much He loves him, that He sent His Son to die for him and that God would show him how he will go out and bless others too and God will open doors for him and his Mum to be blessed. It was like my own mind REFUSED to say anything negative. Then I handed him the book.
I know the glory goes to God but your “precious little book” is like the perfect Bible tract to give away. Today, I have been trying to think of making up my own little Bible tracts to give away to people in the street (I will still work towards that) but your book meets that need right away. And the beauty of it, is that those who read it and apply it will recognise our Wonderful God at work in their lives, and CHANGED lives will CHANGE lives.
Thanks again and God will continue to bless and enlarge your labour of love.
