The following testimonies are a few examples of Gods intervention in my life..

Genesis

One day at work during lunchtime, I went for a walk with Paul. On our way back to the factory I said to Paul "do you think there are any aliens?". Paul replied "no I don't, read Genesis".

As I was driving to work the following day, I was still wondering if there might be aliens. So I spoke out loud "God are there any aliens?". Immediately after asking this, I stopped at a road junction, a big white van pulled up along side me. Written in huge letters across the side of the van was, "GENESIS"!

Ruth's Picture

My wife (a non-Christian) was having a hard time coming to terms, with me being a 'born again' Christian. There was much conflict between us, so I often went to church on my own.

One Sunday, half way through the service, Ruth (the lady sitting next to me) said "God has given me a picture for you", I looked at her with a blank expression, she continued - "I saw a flower pot on a window sill, with seed in. I believe God is saying to you, 'treat your wife as you would the seed in the flower pot' (i.e. gently, nurturing etc)".

I was amazed, because I have been experimenting for years, growing different plants from seed, in little flower pots on my window sill. And Ruth didn't know anything about this.

Four years later my wife came to know the truth too and was baptised also, what's more, she (like Ruth) has had (spiritual) pictures for other people too!

Getting to the Course on Time

One day Paul told me, he had been on a 26 week 'Freedom in Christ' course. It sounded really interesting and I wanted to go. Paul said he would let me know when the course re-started.

Some months later Paul contacted me and advised me the course was to re-start in a few weeks.

In the meantime, my wife had been organising a special treat for her friends birthday, a weekend away, pampering themselves at a hotel.

After booking this treat, my wifes employer offered her a free trip abroad. The start date of which, coincided with the end of the weekend away (but also coincided with the start date of my course!).

1. After short break, she drives with girls from hotel to Airport.
2. At Airport she goes abroad, but hands car over to girls.
3. Girls drive our car, back to our house.
4. I drive Lisa home (6 miles), then take Caroline home (a further 26 miles).

It's a good plan, but by the time I've driven the girls home, I would miss the first session of the course!

Day of the Course

When the day of the course came I was upset. I sat at home waiting for the girls to arrive from the Airport. While I was waiting Paul phoned me, I explained to him that I couldn't go on the course, he said not to worry and that he would come over and wait with me.

Paul Prayed

As we waited, Paul prayed to God for me. As soon as he finished praying the phone rang, it was Caroline, she said:

"Hi Marc, I've just driven Lisa home and I'm on my way to your house. You don't have to worry about driving me home, as my parents have been shopping in Bournemouth today and said they would give me a lift home".

Amazing!!

Within minutes she turned up and so did her parents, I waved goodbye to them and set off with Paul to the course!

Thank You, God!

The Knife

An audit was held at work, during which the auditor picked up a knife in my office (used for opening parcels/boxes arriving in stores) and commented on it. The knife had two blades and looked menacing, the auditor disliked it.

During the next few days I continued to think about the knife and decided I needed to replace it. I thought "what I need is a knife that takes Stanley blades, has a quick release handle and is bright in colour so I won't loose it". So I started to look through brochures and catalogues to find one. But I couldn't find one that had all three characteristics.

In addition to not finding the knife I needed, there was a second underlying problem too - I didn't want to spend money on another knife, when I already had one that did the job. So I gave up looking, but it still played on my mind.

A few days later at work I opened a parcel, inside was a bright yellow knife, it took Stanley blades and had a quick release handle! I hadn't ordered it (couldn't find one), but there it was in the box!

I thought the supplier must have packed it by mistake. I was tempted to keep quite and just keep it, but I thought no - if this is from God then I'm meant to have it. So I phoned the supplier and told them about it. They were surprised and put me on hold while they discussed it. A few seconds later a lady said to me "It's ok you just keep it".

Amazing!!

Thank You God.
(I immediately disposed of the other knife)

Pelargonium

When I got back to work, I went to the canteen for coffee. On my way I walked past a colleague who was pruning a plant. As I looked at the plant a word appeared in my mind "Pelargonium". I made my coffee and wondered if the word was from God. As I headed back to my office, I stopped and asked what the plant was. "Its a Pelargonium" my colleague replied.

I know very little about plants, let alone their Latin names!

Rescued on Holiday

My wife and I were on holiday in Greece. We hired a small boat for the day and travelled around the coast. At the end of the day we set off to return the boat, on our way back we spotted a small empty beach, it was a beautiful setting and there was no one about. We decided to stop off for a few minutes and enjoy the peace and tranquility, having the beach to ourselves.

As we drew near to the beach, we got caught by a strong current. The water turned our boat around and waves started coming over the side, it started to fill up very quickly. My wife jumped out and waded to the beach. I jumped out too and tried to push the boat round, but the current was too strong. I threw the camera to my wife and we both began to panic as our boat was about to sink.

Suddenly a small fishing boat appeared from nowhere. A man threw me a rope, I tied it to our boat and the man reversed his boat, towing ours out to sea. My wife and I stood on the beach, watching him bail our boat out, this was very hard work and took him 20-30 mins. After he'd finished, he came back and got us and reprimanded us (in Greek), he then took us and our boat back to the boat hire company.

This man (angel?) appeared from nowhere, there was nobody around when we headed for the beach.

Thanks God.

Car Breaks Down, after getting me Home!

When I was about 2 miles from home, my car radio stopped working, 1 mile further and the car heater stopped, as I turned into my road the indicators stopped. When the front wheels of my car, touched the edge of my drive, the car stopped!

The car was parked across the pavement, with the front wheels touching the drive!

I asked my neighbours to help me push it up the drive.

Not only did God get me home, but the car was booked in with a Mechanic the next day! For its MOT! And it was arranged for him to come and collect it!
