Problems with a Wedding
"Dear Robert, Greetings in Jesus' name. I am happy to report to you that indeed, prayer never fails and that God always comes through no matter how bleak the outlook. The outlook is always bright. Lyle said the Lord gave him a cost factor for the wedding and told him not to worry, He will take care of everything.
Bro Robert, when you are convicted that the Lord has told you something, don't look at anything else. We offered Lyle a solution when it became obvious that he was not going to get the suits to come home and time was running out. He said he would pray about it. That was after that depressing e-mail I forwarded to you when his time ran out. He told me, forget it. He said that will not bring glory to God so he is not accepting that solution. So, he revived his faith and decided to come to Trinidad without the suits. He was right. God's solution was in Trinidad.
Lyle held out to the end and God vindicated his faith.
Everything that they needed was provided at a fraction of
the cost they were going to pay in the States. God's
stipulated amount was therefore not exceeded.
Not only that, rain fell for 3 full days before the wedding
so much so that alternative plans were made for the pictures
and reception. But Lyle and his best man believed there was
not going to be any rain on the 15th because that was God's
chosen day. On that morning the sun rose usual time and held
out for the day. Only a shower or two at appropriate times
to indicate God's presence, The wedding was very beautiful
and everyone had an enjoyable time. The faith of all
concerned was strengthened and God was magnified in the eyes
of His children.
Thank you for your prayers and I will never doubt God's
promises again, by His grace. As the song says, He always
comes through and He will do it again. Let the prayer
warriors know that everything went well and they have no
need to fear that God will ignore any sincere request. He
always comes throoough. The conditions met, the answer is
unequivocal. Thanks again a whole lot. Maranata."
"I want to thank you a whole lot and the prayer warriors for
your prayers. It helped perform the miracle that took place
on Wednesday, I forgot to mention the miracle of water. We
had no water for 2 days prior to the wedding and none on the
wedding day.
When it was time to get ready, and our tank ran dry, my
sister called the Water Authority (WASA) and told them we
had an emergency, the reason and location. They turned on
the water
shortly after. They had closed the plant because of the
tremendous amount of rain which caused the rivers to be
dirty and they did not know when they were going to turn it
on. The water was still very dirty when we called, but they
turned it on nevertheless.
The miracle is that folks just before our village had the
same problem and WASA got numerous calls from them and WASA
told them they will have to purchase truck born water and
did not turn on the water for them until two days after.
This was a strong indication to us that was a wedding in
Cana. God was indeed here." Erica etdel@hotmail.com "From
the way everyone made it sound, you would think that God is
powerless without a couple of dollars...from the very onset
of this experience God assured me that everything would be
all rigt. It was his aim to strengthen my faith by having me
wait a couple of days for the unfolding of his plan...
God doesn't operate half way...there's not a single time in
the Bible where a customer wasn't completely satisfied with
God's service. Especially with the upcoming time of trials
and hardships predicted in the Bible, we as Christians need
to be confident that prayer is more valuable and reliable
than money. thank you for you prayers...
in my opinion the wedding was PERFECT! the weather was
great. the clothing was great. the food was great. the music
was great. and everyone (who participated) was in perfect
health to share in our happy occasion. this is what God is
will to do for anyone who puts their trust in him. Thanks
again for your prays - they took us farther than your money
ever could."
