Miracle Son-Shine Garden ~ The Fruit of Things to Come

10/11/25

Five years after the Oil in the Closet Miracle, I left the workplace for good. The LORD called me into His ministry. Perhaps, this miracle was a sign symbolic of what He would accomplish… the fruit of things to come!

How did I know God was calling me into the ministry? Recall the Red Wallet Dream from January 2015.

In March 2015 upon the Lord’s request and not knowing what came next, I quit.  Prior to leaving my job, I had two dreams which involved large vegetables in a garden.  I didn’t think much of the dreams until months later when I wanted to start a vegetable garden.

So, in the spring of 2015, I prepped my garden boxes for planting.  I wanted to plant zucchini, and I went to a nursery to get some starter plants. The nursery had no starter plants, so I bought zucchini seed to start my own.  I tried starting the zucchini in my kitchen window, but it did not grow.  I figured I would plant some later in the season. 

I called it my Son-Shine Garden and I went on to plant tomatoes, cucumber, leeks, basil and a couple types of peppers for Bobby.  After a short period of time, I noticed a huge number of new plants coming up where I didn’t plant anything.  The new plant leaves started to become recognizable to me…they were zucchini plants.  There were upwards of more than 30 zucchini plants growing all over my garden! 

I had so many zucchini plants I had to pull many out knowing that they would get huge by mid-summer.  Asking God if this was from Him, I heard, “Every good and perfect gift comes down from the Father of Lights with whom there is no shadow of turning.”  (James 1:17).

After pulling up a majority of the zucchini plants, I noticed other seedlings started showing up at various times between spring and late fall.  I just let it all grow to see what God was growing in our garden.

Here is a list of all the vegetables God grew during this miracle: zucchini, eggplant, carrots, Daikon radishes, broccoli rabe, green onion, nasturtium, cilantro, parsley, fennel, dill, oregano, fingerling potatoes, yellow Swiss chard, red Swiss chard, an avocado tree, lemon balm, mint, russet potatoes, purple perennials, celery, lima beans, and finally, cantaloupe.  The cantaloupe plant was very prolific, it yielded almost 20 melons in the course of two months, all the sweetest I have ever tasted.  It was truly amazing.

I will raise up for them a garden of renown, and they shall no longer be consumed with hunger in the land… Ezekiel 34:29.

Have you ever wondered what gardens symbolize in the Bible? Beyond their beauty, gardens play a significant role in spiritual teachings and stories. They often represent growth, renewal, and the connection between humanity and the divine. It all started in a garden…The Garden of Eden which represents paradise and free will, And Jesus rose from the Garden Tomb!

Ancient Garden Mentioned In Bible Discovered In Jerusalem

 A garden enclosed…A spring shut up; a fountain sealed. Your plants are an orchard of pomegranates with pleasant fruits—A fountain of gardens, a well of living waters, and streams from Lebanon.  (SOS 4:12-15).

God loves gardens, so stay near to Him in yours:)
