“The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way” (Psalm 25:9).
Our God is a living God, He will work on our behalf. The knowledge of God’s will gives us strong living faith.
While I was in Tokyo I was planning to go to the Philippine Islands. I had to get a visa for that purpose. But I had scarcely any time to do this, as I was preparing to leave for a place in the North of Japan. I was wondering whether I should cancel my visit to the North or give up my efforts to get the visa for the Philippine Island. As I prayed, the Lord told me clearly that He wanted me to go to North Japan and get the visa also. Then I heard a voice, “Go downstairs”. There was no apparent reason for me to go down; but I obeyed the voice. I went downstairs and walked towards the corner. I saw a man packing up things to go home. I asked him if he had any form to apply for a visa. He gave one to me. Then I asked him if he would take me to the office where I could get a visa. He replied he would gladly do this for me. If I had not gone downstairs that moment I would not have been able to get it. I went in a taxi to the office for a visa. But I did not have any Japanese money with me to pay for the taxi. I had only American money. But I knew the Lord wanted me to go to that office that day; so my faith gave me boldness. As I went a man asked me if I could take him aIso in the taxi that way, as he was going in the same direction. I readily agreed. On the way, I spoke to him about the Lord and gave him my testimony. When we got down he insisted on paying the bill. In this way, the Lord undertook for all my needs. If you only wait for God until you are conscious of His presence, He will lead you Himself in His perfect way.
