God chose to send me an announcement of an upcoming financial surplus with instructions on what to do with it.
To carry this out, the Holy Spirit put it on Pastor Kerilei’s heart that morning to invite Pastor Arnaud to our “TGC Cell Group,” and thankfully Pastor Arnaud agreed and was given a prophecy that was meant for me in that short time before the Zoom meeting began.
I learned later that when Pastor Arnaud was introduced to the cell group attendees, he immediately sensed that the prophecy was for me. Instead of calling me out, he announced that he had a word from God for someone with the numbers “737” in their phone number.
I dismissed myself as the intended person since, although my phone number begins with “7” with “37” a few numbers later, those 3 numbers are not exactly in succession!
So then Pastor Arnaud clearly identified me as the intended recipient of his prophecy. He told me that I would be receiving a large amount of money that I was to use to pay down debt. Again I was unclear how this could relate to me since I was thinking of how I had purposefully paid off all of my outstanding consumer debts over the previous year, wanting to live debt-free and begin building savings.
It wasn’t until after the meeting when Pastor Kerilei called & asked about my mortgage that I realized that was a debt I wasn’t even considering — since I didn’t expect to be able to pay it off for a long time. She reminded me not only to expect money coming, but to be sure to use it to pay down this debt.
Less than 2 weeks later, I happened to check my bank statement and noticed a deposit in excess of $10,000 that I assumed was made to my account in error, and I called the bank to get it straightened out. The bank assured me the check was for me and came from the Social Security Administration. So I called that agency and, while in the queue, I read on their website about a new law passed in January that enables “surviving spouses” to receive monthly payments from SSA that they (we) were previously ineligible for, along with a years’ worth of back payments.
I hung up the phone and began praising my Lord & Savior and Provider God, Jesus Christ
I then called Pastor Kerilei and asked her to share the manifestation of Pastor Arnaud’s prophecy with him, along with my apology for not recognizing how that word from God could actually be for me!
And, of course, I immediately paid it all down on my mortgage! Thanks be to God
So grateful that Pastor Arnaud did not give up on me in spite of my “denseness”
