Sowing in the Time of Famine
Wednesday, February 25, 1998
As promised at the last day of your Revival meetings in Cape Town,
December 1998. I am sending you the testimony of our son and his wife's
100-fold harvest in the form of a BRIDE TO BE prize.
In February 1998, we attended Rodney Howard-Browne's Revival meetings
at the Light House Christian Centre in Cape Town. Pastor Rodney shared
from Genesis 26, where Isaac sowed in the time of famine and God
blessed him one hundred-fold in the same year. Rodney then challenged
us to take a step of faith and to sow financially into our time of
famine.
We both decided to sow what we had in our wallets with the thought that
we were getting married in a few months time and would be in need of
finances. A few weeks later we put our names down at a Bridal Fair
exhibition with our wedding dates and commented to each other that the
prize was approximately one hundred-fold of what we had sown.
In March, we received a telephone call to say that we had won the
prize!! We received the following: a wedding cake; a BMW for the
wedding day; pre-wedding photography; hair styling; his and hers
wedding bands; a weekend at the V & A Hotel at the Waterfront; a
personally designed wedding dress.
We thank God for blessing us more than a hundred-fold and highly recommend sowing in the time of famine!
