NATIONAL PROPHECY FULFILMENT: FUEL PRICE REDUCTION
On 12 March 2024, I shared the following:
BEGINNING
The price of fuel to fall again.
END
Just recently, I shared that the fuel price would rise, and as per the Word of the Lord, it did.
Before that, the Lord had shared that we would see the fuel price go down again, and now it has.
It’s such a welcome relief for South Africans. The fuel price doesn’t just affect motorists and commuters, if affects all consumers.
When the price of fuel goes up, it affects the price of goods and services, particularly for those who live inland.
For example, buying fish in coastal areas is cheaper than buying it inland. The fishing industry is based mainly in coastal areas because that’s where the fish are caught.
If one fish costs R5 in a coastal area, the same fish might cost R10 inland. The reason for this is mainly transportation. A Johannesburg-based supermarket might buy that fish from a fishery in Cape Town. The distance between the two points is about 1 400 kilometers. If the fuel cost is low, the fish will be cheaper, but it the price of fuel goes up, the same fish will be more expensive.
The same goes for most products. The fuel price is based on the international oil price because petrol and diesel are petroleum products derived from oil. If the price of oil goes up, the price of petrol and diesel must go up.
Products imported from China to South Africa have to be put in a container and shipped to one of our ports. Ships rely on fuel. If the fuel price is high, the cost of those products will go up, if it drops, then the products will be cheaper.
For the same products shipped from China to South Africa to be moved inland to Johannesburg, they must be transported by truck, sometimes rail. If it’s by truck then their price will go up astronomically because of the high fuel price affecting the ship and then the truck.
I trust you understand the significance of the fuel price going up or down.
Once again, prophetic accuracy is not about the prophet but about the One who gave the prophecy. Prophetic accuracy proves that God knows the end from the beginning. It proves that God knows the future.
If God is right about the petrol price, then the same God must be right the soon coming of His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Lord Jesus Christ is near. It’s time to repent and do works in keeping with repentance.
I would like to thank God for the mercy of His foreknowledge. I give Him all the praise and all the honour. No prophecy ever originated from anyone but God Himself. God never lies.
Glory to God!
