The 3rd Family

It was Saturday February 4th when God put into Blue Mustang’s heart that there was going to be a 3rd family. I felt it to but I wasn’t sure. So he gave me some extra money. I left for the ghetto and did not think much of it anymore. When I arrived, there were over 100 people praising God. It is always fun to watch them worship. They do not allow time to interfere with their worship. They give up their Saturday mornings because they love God. They would be rather be worshiping him then doing their own thing.

I do believe that churches should be just like these guys. We should give God whatever time that he needs. Sometimes God will enjoy just having us just give praise to his holy name. Other times he wants to give us encouragement. Or he may want to share a word to us of the prophetic. We should not prevent the Holy Spirit from doing what he wants.

After they finished worshiping, God blessed the two new families with money. I told them that there is going to be a 3rd family. The families gathered around me and began to pray for that third family. They then anointed the money that I was going to give them. It was time for me to leave. The two families that were blessed went shopping because they were very hungry. As as I left the parking lot, I looked in my rearview mirror and noticed that Lydia was still praying for me. That little girl is anointed by God.

God directed me down a different street that I haven’t been on before. I never knew that there was another grocery store here in this area. This looks like one of those mom-and-pop grocery stores. Boy, everything sure looks run down around here. This grocery store looked like it had been here a long time. I looked down the alley by the store and noticed a family behind the grocery store. I saw a grocery cart and some people standing up against the dumpsters. Soon a person from the store walked outside with a box of fruit. They put that box of fruit on a table that was outside. The family began rummaging through the fruit. I did not drive up on them right away because I wanted to make sure that that was the family that God wanted. I have seen people digging in trash cans all the time. God then said, “This is the family.”

I parked my truck on the east side of the store. I got out with my Bible and walked around the corner to where they were at. I saw the father praying to God thanking him for the fruit. His little daughter then asked, “God, if you are real, could you give us a miracle today. I am really craving cereal.”

I kept myself hidden because I did not want to interrupt their prayer time. It is something amazing just to be able to listen to people’s hearts speak. I walked up to them after they finished praying still holding my Bible. I said, “Good morning, how are you guys doing today.”

Their little daughter piped up and said, “I think it is closer to noon right now.”

I replied, “Yes, it is pretty close to lunchtime.”

She then asked, “Are you a preacher?”

I replied, “I am. I minister out on the streets. I minister to gangs, families, and the lost and the brokenhearted.”

She exclaimed, “Wow, you have quite a job!” she paused a moment then asked, “Would you like a banana?”

I almost started crying because this family did not have very much but she was willing to give some of what they had. I replied, “Sure, I will have a banana.”

She even started peeling it for me. Her dad,
Samuel said, “Could you pray for us? We really could use a miracle right now. We need groceries today.”

I prayed with them. As I finished, I said, “Let me tell you something about who Blue Mustang is and how God is using him to bless families who need help.” I then gave them testimonies on how God is using Blue Mustang to help families in the ghetto area.

Samuel then said, “That would be a miracle today.” He then pointed and said, “We live over there.” It was like one of those buildings where a bunch of families lived together in a complex. Such each apartment has two bedrooms. They are very small. He then said, “I have started a job at the oil refinery in Commerce City. But I will not get paid until Wednesday. We are really hungry right now and we are stretched out to the limit right now.”

His son Joshua stepped in and said, “The only thing that we have is one Apple in our refrigerator.”

I looked at Joshua and asked, “Joshua, do you believe in miracles?”

He said, “Yes, I am a even a miracle. When I was born I only weighed 4 pounds but look at me now. I am strong and healthy but I sure could use some Cap’n Crunch cereal right now.”

I began to cry. I just could not hold back the tears. I knew that God did not want me to hold them back. The little boy came over and began hugging me saying, “Everything is going to be all right mister. God is faithful.”

He said that not knowing what I was about to do. I finally gave them the money. As they began to count it, Joshua was watching. He said, “We are now multimillionaires.”

A girl and the manager of the store came out to greet us. They said, “We have heard everything that you guys have been talking about. How can we not help out with this family.” The girl said, “We have a grocery cart going for you guys. I have loaded it with Cap’n Crunch cereal but haven’t got the milk yet because we don’t wanted to spoil.”

Before everybody went inside the store, they prayed with me. As the family walked inside, the manager said, “I am going to pay half their bill. I know how it is to not have anything. I also know what it’s like to have plenty. It is right thing to do. God bless Blue Mustang whoever he is.”

Joshua turned around and asked, “Is Blue Mustang a car or something?”

I said, “No, he is not car but he definitely has one.”

Joshua replied, “He is our new hero!”

It is time for me to leave now because of the gangs I need to talk to. As I headed down the street, I noticed fire trucks parked in the direction that I was going. I could not continue because they blocked the entire street. So I began to back up. One of the firefighters came over and asked, “Are you Sonny? Because I have seen your truck over on the east side. I have seen you witnessing to the gangs. What are you up to?”

I began to share with him the testimony of what happened. He then asked, “Is there really a grocery store down that road?”

I then told him it doesn’t really look much like a store. After he heard about what the manager did with the family he said, “We are going to go by there later to buy our groceries.”

That store does not get that many customers because of where it is located. The fire department went there and bought all their groceries there for the week. This really blessed that store because not many people go there. The fire department filled the grocery cart full of groceries. When they went to check out, that manager began to cry. They spent a lot of money there today. The manager then said, “Come back anytime.”

The firefighter then said, “I am going to tell our other shifts to come here. We just did not know you were here.”

Just because the manager blessed his family, God brought the fire department to the manager’s store. God really does believe in blessing those who bless others. You can listen to the entire story here:
