Coincidence?

I've been praying for some people in our lives who bring the Kingdom no matter where they are and what they are doing. Recently the Lord gave me these three specific things to pray for this group of friends daily.
1. Peace that surpasses understanding. I have been specifically focusing in on peace over their finances and provision, that they would have no worry or doubt concerning the things they need.
2. Protection of their resources: including their health, time, mind, family, gifts, connections, money and things. I have really focused in on Jesus' hand of protection against the enemy's plan to steal, kill, and destroy.
3. Provision for vision. All these people I'm praying for have vision to some degree of how they feel they are to bring the Kingdom to the now. I'm praying for the Lord's timing and provision in abundance for this.

SO, is it coincidence that the last three weeks I have been NAILED with the opposite of all these prayers?
1. I have had TONS of peace about our finances in the last several months . . . minus the last few weeks. I find myself mulling over what I've spent, how I've spent, should've I spent, will we have enough to spend. . . YUCK. It feels overwhelming.
2. I have never had much care for the things we have. Ask Heath. Everything we own is used or old. I really don't worry about it and I don't care. Until the last few weeks. Everything I look at I think, "I wonder when the washer is going to quit on me. I wonder when the TV will kick the bucket. I wonder when the computer will finally go off and stay off for good. I wonder when the van will be beyond repair." It's a fear really, a fear that I'll have to replace these things when they quit working and spend money we don't really have. Why is this consuming me?! And then, I believe that fear has given a door for the enemy to take some hits of stealing and destroying. The van needed a new transmission. The washer quit working in the middle of a cycle (I prayed and shook it and it started again. . . whew). The TV is showing more and more fuzziness every time it's turned on. I can't be on the computer long before it gets tired and shuts off in the middle of what I'm doing. Has all this come on because I was afraid it would? I don't know but it feels connected somehow.
3. I have had a hard time believing that the Lord will a)release us into vision we have for the future and b) that he'll provide for it. Usually, I'm pretty confident of this one, and patient for His timing.

Finally, yesterday I was so overwhelmed with all my swirling thoughts, I called Heath to have him pray. He said, "So tell the enemy he can have the washer, the car, the computer, the TV and let it all go. It will just highlight Jesus' heart of generosity and provision for us in greater ways!"

ABOUT FACE! Have it all, I just want Jesus. . . truly. And if I can't go to Montana this summer because I need to buy a new washer, oh well. I need to let go of my thoughts, my things, my plans, my fears and turn back to complete trust in Jesus as Provider, even for things that aren't necessity but desire, like a trip to Montana. And if you've read this far, please pray for me as I pray for my friends concerning the above 3 things. I think the enemy wanted to make me feel ineffective in praying for my friends when I'm swamped in those very issues! Thanks!
