“God’s Provision”

Mark 16

15 And He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

Philippians 2

9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

On Thursday (25 May) Linda, who work at the Emseni Care Centre of KwaSizabantu, prayed for blankets for the patients. The next day, Mrs Fouche arrived from Pretoria, together with her husband, and brought many blankets along. Before she came from Pretoria, she prayed what she should bring along. She wanted to bring food and other things, but continually felt God pointing to the blankets – and that’s what she brought along.

God answers prayer, and when we are in need, we can go to Him with our need.

Mr Moses Khoza also gave His testimony of how he had strayed from God, but God has shown him grace, granted him forgiveness of sin and even touched him physically. Before he came to KwaSizabantu he was in hospital and had a terrible experience. The people in his ward were very sick. One night he went to fetch himself some water to drink. When he came back to his bed, one of the patients begged him for some water. When he had fetched the water, the man didn’t want to drink it, but asked mr Khoza to pour it onto his neck and chest, for he felt like he was burning. After that the next patient had the same request and then the next. It carried on for quite a while. The next morning two of the patients had passed away. God spoke to him through the incident, and he came to KwaSizabantu and met with the Lord afresh.

Dr. Jack Hydes related the following story that his sister experienced:

Dr. Jack Hydes, former pastor of first Baptist church in Hammond, Indiana. One night he was awakened by the piercing scream from his sister. He ran upstairs to her bedroom and there she was sweating and in hysterics. He shook her but he couldn’t get her attention. So he had to slap her. He said “What’s wrong, did you have a dream?” She said “No, no dream “He said “Did you have a nightmare? ”

She said” No, it was real “He asked what happened?” She said “I just got back from hell; after a few miles of the glittering lights and all that deceives mankind there was nothing but desolation. There is hopelessness. You walk towards the gates of hell knowing that you will never again be free. I got to the gates of hell and the keeper said “Stand there “.

She stood outside hell and saw the people whose face were twisted and tongues were thick , eyes bulging , hands split and dropping blood . And she said ” Sir, Please let some air come in ” and he said ” no air in hell ” .Then she said ” kind Sir, let them have a drink of water ” and he said ” no water in hell ” Then I said ” If that’s true let them die “, and he said ” no death in hell ”

She said ” My God, how long will they suffer?” And he said “forever and ever .Hell has no exit and there’s no death.” Yes, hell is a place where there are no exits .It’s a place where there is agony of body and spirit. There is pain and suffering. People who reach there have to endure the wrath of God.
