"Supernatural Provision"
1 Dream & 2 Visions of Supernatural Provision

Bryan Hupperts
June 20, 1997

I had a vivid dream where I was somewhere in the northern United States or Canada running through a snow covered field. I was in unfamiliar farmland and was running in a jacket but had no shoes or socks on. My feet were blue, numb, and bleeding. I was being hunted for some kind of political crime and was running for my life. In the dream, I staggered into a farmhouse with no electricity and was taken in by an elderly couple. They nursed me back to health.

When leaving the farmhouse (wearing borrowed socks and shoes) I told the farmer that the Lord was going to regard his sacrifice and risk for helping me. I went outside and raised my hands to heaven and began worshipping the Lord. A flock of Canadian geese were flying overhead and they swooped down and flew in a circle around my head perhaps 12 to 15 feet off the ground. The farmer kept shooting at them until the ground was covered with goose flesh. God rewarded his faithfulness. And I turned and began to run again. Then I woke up.

In my first vision I saw a young mother standing in the snow with a young baby. She was famished and crying out to God for food. Though it was snowing, she was praying for a miracle. She was standing next to an apple tree in hibernation which suddenly began to blossom and grow apples. It took perhaps 15 minutes and she ate and fed her baby. Then she worshiped the Lord.

In the second vision I saw a farmer in winter with only a little seed telling his neighbors that God had told him to sow and he would reap a harvest. They all looked hungry. His neighbors mocked him and all walked home. The farmer sowed his seed and threw himself on the ground and prayed through the night. He fell asleep and when he awoke, the field of grain had grown to maturity overnight. He called for his shocked neighbors and told them to help themselves and he stood joyfully proclaiming Jesus to them. Many came to faith!

There are dark and terrible days ahead as God continues to humble our nation. He is working to bring us to a place of godly sorrow to work real repentance in us. In spite of whatever happens, God knows how to care for those who are His and for those who will believe Him. He is still in the business of multiplying loaves and fish.

We serve a mighty, wonderful Savior!

Psalm 78
"19 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?
20 Behold, He smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can He give bread also? can He provide flesh for his people?
21 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;
22 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in His Salvation:
23 Though He had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven,
24 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the corn of heaven.
25 Man did eat angels' food: He sent them meat to the full.
26 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by His Power He brought in the south wind.
27 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea:
28 And He let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations..."
AND
"52 Made His own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock."

Answers To Prayer ---New Window
by George Mueller (1805-1898)
"Sometimes I found children of God tried in mind by the prospect of old age, when they might be unable to work any longer, and therefore were harassed by the fear of having to go into the poorhouse. If in such a case I pointed out to them, how their Heavenly Father has always helped those who put their trust in Him, they might not, perhaps, always say, that times have changed; but yet it was evident enough, that God was not looked upon by them as the LIVING God. My spirit was oft times bowed down by this, and I longed to set something before the children of God, whereby they might see, that He does not forsake, even in our day, those who rely upon Him."

Provision in the LORD ---New Window

"Therefore I say unto you, Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat, or what ye shall drink; nor yet for your body, what ye shall put on. Is not the life more than meat, and the body than raiment? 26 Behold the fowls of the air: for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns; yet your Heavenly Father feedeth them. Are ye not much better than they? 27 Which of you by taking thought can add one cubit unto his stature? 28 And why take ye thought for raiment? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow; they toil not, neither do they spin: 29 And yet I say unto you, That even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30 Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which to day is, and to morrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe you, O ye of little faith? 31 Therefore take no thought, saying, What shall we eat? or, What shall we drink? or, Wherewithal shall we be clothed? 32 (For after all these things do the Gentiles seek:) for your Heavenly Father knoweth that ye have need of all these things. 33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you"
(Matthew 6:25).

Timely Supplies ---New Window
by J. Hudson Taylor (1832-1905)
from the autobiography
To China... with Love
"Not infrequently our God brings His people into difficulties on purpose that they may come to know Him as they could not otherwise do. Then He reveals Himself as 'a very present help in trouble,' and makes the heart glad indeed at each fresh revelation of a Father's faithfulness. We who only see so small a part of the sweet issues of trial often feel that we would not for anything have missed them; how much more shall we bless and magnify His name when all the hidden things are brought to light!"

GOD Glorified in Man's Dependence ---New Window
by Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758)
"That the creature should have so absolute and universal a dependence on God, provision is made that God should have our whole souls, and should be the object of our undivided respect. If we had our dependence partly on God, and partly on something else, man's respect would be divided to those different things on which he had dependence. Thus it would be if we depended on God only for a part of our good, and on ourselves, or some other being, for another part: or if we had our good only from God, and through another that was not God, and in something else distinct from both, our hearts would be divided between the good itself, and him from whom, and him through whom, we received it. But now there is no occasion for this, God being not only he from or of whom we have all good, but also through whom, and is that good itself, that we have from him and through him. So that whatsoever there is to attract our respect, the tendency is still directly towards God; all unites in him as the centre."

Our Substance Blessed
"Blessed shall be thy basket and thy store"
(Deuteronomy 28:5).
by C. H. Spurgeon
"Obedience brings a blessing on all the provisions which our industry earns for us. That which comes in and goes out at once, like fruit in the basket which is for immediate use, shall be blest; and that which is laid by with us for a longer season shall equally receive a blessing. Perhaps ours is a hand-basket portion. We have a little for breakfast and a scanty bite for dinner in a basket when we go out to do our work in the morning. This is well, for the blessing of God is promised to the basket. If we live from hand to mouth, getting each day's supply in the day, we are as well off as Israel; for when the LORD entertained His favored people He only gave them a day's manna at a time. What more did they need? What more do we need?

But if we have a store, how much we need the LORD to bless it! For there is the care of getting, the care of keeping, the care of managing, the care of using; and, unless the LORD bless it, these cares will eat into our hearts till our goods become our gods and our cares prove cankers.

O LORD, bless our substance. Enable us to use it for Thy glory. Help us to keep worldly things in their proper places, and never may our savings endanger the saving of our souls."
