GOD IS ALWAYS FAITHFUL

So my School of Evangelism(SOE) is splitting up into two different teams one in Perth and one in Mexico City. I prayed about where God wanted me to serve for these last 3months and He said "stay where you are". This made my fees a lot cheaper from $3500 to $970. My fees were due Dec. 8th and not only did I need the outreach fees of $970 but I also needed the rest of my lecture phase fees so all together I needed about $2000 and I only had a week to get it all in. Our class spent a lot of time praying and thanking God for what He has given because gratefulness and thankfulness is the key in spiritual warfare and being right with God. It was a humbling experience for me, Ive never had to trust God with this much money before. At first I was scared and stressed out because my emotions respond where my faith is so honestly I wasn't trusting that God could provide despite my circumstances. I actually despised support raising because it can be draining, hard, and time consuming. I spent a lot of very late nights praying and writing emails for support while loosing sleep just being faithful in my part by bringing everything to the table that I can. Then I realized that it wasn't support raising I was despising but I was despising trusting God that He would provide for me. I was actually despising the character of God being the God who is Faithful and the Provider. He desires to provide for His children and instead of being grateful for that I was selfish and let my circumstances effect me. So I did a lot of repenting and then the grace of God came on me and I began to fully trust God and be grateful. Then money just started flowing in. The day all my fees where due someone I don't know who Ive never met or seen paid for all my outreach fees of $970 because God told him to. Then later that night while our whole base was praying for finances my friend from Holland told me God told her to pay the remaining $315 for my lecture phase fees. Within 3hrs on the day all my fees where due $1285 was provided and now I owe nothing all my fees are paid in.

God is so extremly Faithful. My leader told me God told him that in this He wanted to show me His character, to reveal and experience His faithfulness and provision in my life. I asked God that I would learn to trust His faithfulness and He lovingly showed me how. It's so crazy looking back when God told me to just "go" and He would take care of everything. I came here with not a single dime paid for which to the world it was complete foolishness, pure stupidity but I am not of this world. Now look I have witnessed His Faithfulness despite my impossible circumstance. Phil.4:19"And my God will meet all your needs according to His glorious riches in Christ Jesus". What a perfect Father we have.

I also want to thank all of you who partnered with me through prayer and finances. Thank you so much for listening to God even though you aren't physically going, your still going through me which has just as much value and importance. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
