Even hell and destruction cannot hide. He sees danger before we see it.
“The LORD looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. 14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.” Psalm 33:13-14.
He sits as vantage place to see ALL THINGS.
“Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; but the night shineth as the day: the darkness and the light are both alike to thee.” Psalm 139:12.
The night is just like a bright day before him.
“And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call thee by thy name, am the God of Israel.” Isaiah 45:3.
He sees the riches even under the cover of darkness or where the powers of dark kingdom hid it.
Jehovah Jireh sees where your needed miracle or provision is.
“For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle upon a thousand hills.” Psalm 50:10.
They all belong to him. Hear him further.
“The silver is mine, and the gold is mine, saith the LORD of hosts.” Haggai 2:8.
The goats on the hills and the treasures in secret places, his eyes behold them all.
Jehovah Jireh does not only see what you need, he sees you in your extremity and tether’s end. He sees you when you have reached your final effort, he sees you when you have done everything possible within your capacity. He sees that you have reached a point where you cannot go further again.
Abraham had reached final bus stop of his effort, he was about to do the incredible and unbelievable: to kill his son. Jehovah Jireh sees such situation and he knows he must come forth.
He saw Hagar when she was at the end of her efforts, she had looked everywhere for water for the baby. She said,
“And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs. And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.” Genesis 21:15-16.
Jehovah Jireh saw her at her extremity and Jehovah Jireh came forth for her.
Jehovah Jireh saw Daniel at the final point of life, he was at the end of the rope right in the Lion’s den. Jehovah Jireh came with provision of cover and extreme protection.
Jehovah Jireh saw the three Hebrews at their extreme end. He came with cover and insulation. They were covered with fireproof invisible garment provided by God that sees and knows.
God sees you in your present condition just as he saw Abraham. This is one aspect of the dimension of God that is known as Jehovah Jireh. Despite the thicket (group of bushes) that covered the Ram, Jehovah Jireh saw it.
The second aspect of this dimension of Jehovah Jireh is the procurement capacity. Jehovah Jireh will not only just see, he will also obtain and procure the provision. He will see it and show it to us. He makes the provision to ‘wait’ for us. He used the ‘thicket’ in Mount Moriah to ‘detain’ the Ram till Abraham came to the mountain.
Jehovah Jireh will retain your blessing till you come there. He will not allow illegal person to take the blessing away. That dimension of God will not allow illegal tampering with the blessing of a saint. The Ram waited for Abraham. Many shepherds would have combed that mountain that same day or previous day, Jehovah Jireh will hit them with temporary blindness or a kind of optical illusion they will not see the Ram. Jehovah Jireh makes your provision to be customized and reserved.
Another powerful extent that Jehovah Jireh can go to provide is the creative dimension. Even if the Ram was not existing before he told Abraham to ‘behold a ram’, a ram can be created. A brand-new ram can be released from heaven for that purpose. You know, creative power answers to obedience to divine instruction. Immediately Abraham believed and turned to look at the ram, the ram could be created.
“They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.” Isaiah 48:7.
Can you see that? He can create things in an instant. If he tells you your miracle is in a place, he can create it if you GO there in faith.
Jehovah Jireh acts beyond provision of blessings. Remember that blessing is beyond money and materials. We learnt this typically from the episode of Jacob at Bethel.
“And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.” Genesis 32:26.
Remember that the person asking for blessing was already stinking rich, he had cattle and materials in abundance. His request in the episode shows blessing is beyond money and material possessions.
Jehovah Jireh provides just anything. He provides cover, healing, solutions and all manners of answers to human questions. He is the answer to questions, and solutions to problems. He is triumph to trials, testimonies to tests of life and miracles to miseries of mankind. He is beyond just money or things akin to such.
