WE'LL SEE

Scripture: Psalm 20:5
“May we shout for joy when we hear of your victory and raise a victory banner in the name of our God. May the Lord answer all your prayers” NLT

Once upon a time, there was a farmer somewhere in Europe. He didn't have a lot of money and instead of a tractor he used an old horse to plow his field.

One afternoon, while working in the field, the horse dropped dead. Everyone in the community said, "Oh, what a horrible thing to happen." The farmer prayed and asked God to bless this event in his life and simply said, "We'll see." He was so at peace and so calm, that everyone in the community got together --- and admiring his attitude --- gave him a new horse as a gift.

Everyone's reaction now was, "What a lucky man." And the farmer said, "We'll see."

A couple of days later, the new horse jumped a fence and ran away. Everyone in the community shook their heads and said, "What a poor fellow!" The farmer prayed and asked God to bless this event in his life and simply said, "We'll see."

Eventually, the horse found his way home, and everyone again said, "What a fortunate man." The farmer prayed and asked God to bless this event in his life and simply said, "We'll see."

Later in the year, the farmer's young boy went out riding on the horse and fell and broke his leg. Everyone in the community said, "What a shame for the poor boy."
The farmer prayed and asked God to bless this event in his life and simply said, "We'll see."

Two days later, the army came into the community to draft new recruits. When they saw that the farmer's son had a broken leg, they decided not to recruit him.

Everyone said, "What a fortunate young man." The farmer prayed and asked God to bless this event in his life and simply said, “Thank you Lord for answered prayer.”

There is clearly power in prayer. If you have any doubt just pray and asked God to bless an event in your life and simply say, "We'll see."

Prayer: Father thank you for answered prayer in my life. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen!
