Unexpected Phone Call

A while back, staff member Anna and her husband, Vladimir, began praying for their neighbor Igor* – that God would put him into circumstances that would bring him to faith. Sometime later, Igor lost his job. He began looking for another contract, but nothing came up. He was calm because he had enough savings to last for a few years. Vladimir and Anna kept praying as time went on. Recently, when the friends were all having lunch together, Igor shared that he was still unemployed and his savings were running out. What to do? Anna answered: “I can pray, but you must agree, and say ‘Amen.’”  Igor laughed but agreed. So Anna prayed for God to send Igor a good job in Jesus’ name, and he said, “Amen.” The very next morning he called Anna and said, “I just got a call from a very prestigious company. They invited me for an interview.” Anna said, “God is answering our prayer!” Igor answered, “Would you please continue praying for me? It looks like God hears you!”
