GOD IS OUR PROVIDER!!!

So, i write this today very excited!!! what's new you might ask?? well yesterday i got my student loans papers signed by the college and put them in the mail to Canada, so that money should be coming in a couple of weeks! and then today (saturday) i went job hunting and God provided me with a job. See i had been feeling like God was telling me to settle here, get a job, get a car and then possibly do the degree next year, so yes if you are reading this i do plan on being here a while, longer than a year. Why wouldn't ya? It's hillsong, flippin the best church in the world - well not necessarily true, but a really great church that has a lot of things already established and in place for me to learn leadership skills etc - So i actually did things kinda backwards and bought the car before having the job - and i was really feeling it was a faith step that God wanted me to get the car first before the job and now i see why - because i needed the car to get to where the job was going to be! So now i have a car and a job! the story is kinda neat actually - i was applying to a bunch of jobs online and then was going to go out and look in the area and so i went to Subway, Pizza Hut, Fitness First and then after i applied i fitness first i went to leave, was driving out of the parking lot, looked at this restuarant and thought "i should apply there" and then was like or i'll just go home but i ended up turning around and going back in there and when i walked in I introduced myself said i was looking for part-time work, the lady asked me what experience i had and i told her about Tim Hortons etc, she looked through my whole resume and asked me what my hours of availability were and then asked me if i could start monday at 4pm - so i said sure - she kept saying thank you to me, which i found rather odd, i was the one who needed to be thankful! but anyways - yeah friday morning at chapel they asked anyone who was going through a tough time to come forward so i did - and i got prayed for by 3 different people and one of them prayed for supernatural provision and i thought "man i'm going to take hold of that" and i really kept declaring that and thanking God for it even though i didn't see anything yet and then it was later that afternoon that i got my osap papers back and then today that i did the job hunting - so it was a week of stress and wondering whether i should have bought the car or not, whether i heard God right or not - but i'm telling you, when God promises you something, he does not lie - it's coming, maybe not after a week, but it's coming, DO NOT GIVE UP!!! GOD IS ABLE - Jesse Duplantis spoke here on the weekend and he was amazing - this man lives in blessing because he knows that God is able, he is more than able and we as his children (God's children that is) need to know our rights and authority as being sons and daughters of the most high king - we need to take authority over what is ours!!! anyways so that is what is new here - oh yeah it's flippin cold at night - last night i slept with my pyjama pants, my t-shirt, sweatshirt, socks and 3 blankets - they don't believe in central heating here! they like it cold because to them it gets too flippin hot in the summers or something like that! so yeah now i should go work on some homework - should probaly re-write the sermon i already wrote using some of this! hehe anyways peace out - hope everyone is doing well!!!
