A Stranger Prayed for My Business and Named the Number

I run a small construction company in the San Gabriel Valley. Two years ago I was in serious financial difficulty — I had underbid two large contracts and was facing a shortfall that threatened the whole business. I was at a prayer breakfast I attended irregularly and a man I had met maybe twice asked if he could pray over me. I said yes. In the middle of his prayer he paused and said, with no context from me and no prior conversation about my business, "The Lord says the number you need is already on its way." He named a specific dollar figure — I will not share it here but it was precise and it was large. I was rattled. Three weeks later I received a settlement check from a construction dispute I had filed eighteen months earlier and given up on. The check was within four hundred dollars of the number he had spoken. I went back to find him the following week. He did not remember saying it. He said sometimes words come through him and he does not retain them. I retained it. I have not forgotten a dollar of it.
