Immediately, a Covenant Transport truck passed by. Since sharing that praise report, we have heard from many standers who have spotted red, white, and blue Covenant Transport trucks, at exactly the right time to remind them of their covenant marriage. We share some of those reports with you below "My son and I were traveling on the Interstate and saw a Covenant Transport truck. Directly behind the Covenant truck was a semi with canvas tarp on it which was printed with 'Jesus Christ still cares.' My son and I looked at each other and started to laugh. I have told him the significance of the Covenant trucks but I think he understood the bigger picture today." (Wisconsin) Read about what Covenant Transport trucks mean to some standers - http://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php "I recently saw my prodigal, and it did not go how I thought it might. On the way home, I was praying, and listening to praise music. I suddenly looked up, and there was a Covenant Transport truck passing me. I had prayed for months to see one. Praise God for His faithfulness." (Texas) "I called out to God two days ago and asked for His sign to confirm my stand. My husband called me to get a ride somewhere the other woman did not want to take him. As I was driving with him I saw a Covenant Transport truck parked at a gas station." (Georgia) What’s a Covenant Transport truck? Read what these over the road semis mean to some standers by visiting - http://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php "This has been a rough week. Two court hearings. God was with me during both. I had been praying for a sign that I should remain standing. On my way to the first hearing, I passed a Covenant Transport truck. I have never seen one in this area. The glory goes to God for the good in my life." (Michigan) "Today I was served with divorce papers at work. After I left for the day, I asked God for just one more sign. Our God is so good. No sooner had the prayer left my lips when I passed a truck stop. The truck closest to the road was a Covenant Transport truck. I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that this divorce paperwork does not scare my Lord. He is in control. When I got home, God gave me Job 22:27; 'You will pray to him, and he will hear you, and you will fulfill your vows.' Praise Jesus." (Texas) "Satan attacked my family and my husband divorced me. I cried out to the Lord for his strength and guidance. I heard a sound of squealing brakes, looked out my bedroom window, and my heart leaped. A Covenant Transport truck had parked in front of my house. I had never even seen one before. When I caught my breath, I started praising God. (Oregon) (Read about these trucks and standers from - https://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php ) "I left home for my high school reunion feeling sad that my wife was not with me and wondering how to best respond if I was asked about my wife and family. The first car in front of me on the road had a license plate with the date of our anniversary. I praised God and felt His peace about the evening. Then I crossed paths with three Covenant Transport trucks on the drive to the reunion. I had a great time at the reunion and spoke about my wife without having to reference our recent divorce." (Indiana) "Last night, on my way home from prayer meeting, I was driving on I- 80 when I came up beside a Covenant Transport truck. I have been praying for a sign that my husband will be coming home. We have a trial date a week from today. I am taking this as my sign. Praise the Lord, He is working on our marriage." (Iowa) "I was feeling really down about whether I should stand for my marriage. I left Sunday service to go home by a different route than normal. To my amazement, there sat a Covenant Transport truck, I have never read about one in my state before. My husband called and said this is only temporary. I believe God is working in my prodigal’s life. I know what a difference he has made in mine. I have such peace, I know without a doubt God will bring my prodigal home." (New Hampshire) "While talking to my prodigal today concerning a family matter, a Covenant Transport truck passed me. I was upset about something my prodigal said to me and during work I kept seeing the word covenant. Thank You Lord for showing me You are restoring our marriage." (Georgia) Read about standers and Covenant Transport trucks from- http://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php "My spouse recently traveled with me. On the way, we passed a Covenant Transport, and he asked about my slight movement as I raised my hand and silently thanked the Lord for this sign of encouragement. When he questioned me, I briefly explained. He then told me that in the prior week, he followed a Covenant Transport truck down a mountains in a bad rain storm. On the way home, we stopped at a rest area, and I snapped a photo of a Covenant Transport parked next to a United Van Lines truck. God is still healing us. Prayer and scriptures are what gives me strength to go on." (Arkansas) "I was on my way to Miami for my final hearing today, when the Lord revealed to me a Covenant Transport truck. After that, I knew that everything was going to be all right. My divorce was not finalized and we are still married. I know God was in the midst of all this and my marriage is on it's way to being restored. Thank You Lord, once again for confirmation." (Florida) "The judge issued a divorce today, but to my amazement I was so much at peace. I was experiencing so much of God’s grace that I was not even upset. I know this is just another step to the restoration of our marriage. I even saw a Covenant Transport truck on the way home today." (Maryland) "My husband asked for a paternity test on our son. I was hurt and cried out to God about this. On our way for the test, my friend was meeting me at a truck stop to take me and my son. As I was pulling in, a Covenant Transport truck was leaving beside me. I watched the truck leave one driveway and come back into the other driveway of the truck stop. It made a complete circle around me and our son." (Tennessee) See http://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php "We have no billboards and no Covenant Transport trucks here, but rainbows we have. I thank the Lord for showing me rainbows. Every time I see one God reminds me of His covenant and I am encouraged in my stand and remember my covenant marriage and am encouraged that my husband will be coming home soon. I've seen rainbows six days this month." (Hawaii) "While on a weekend trip with my golf buddies, I became depressed as many did not know I am now divorced. I asked my God to lift the pain in my heart. While driving home, I looked at a licenses plate and noticed it read 121PSLM. That was a surprise, but right in front of that car were not one but two Covenant Transport trucks. I had never seen one before. When I returned home, I asked my God to remind my prodigal of me. The next day her car was parked near mine. Praise God, He is working." (Pennsylvania) "I recently moved from Florida to Washington state and drove the entire way. I had never seen a Covenant Transport truck. I wanted to move back to my home state of Washington, but since my prodigal is living in Florida, I was hesistant to move. While driving across the country, I counted 13 Covenant Transport trucks, one for each state I drove through. I know it was God reassuring me that no matter how far I am away from my prodigal, the Lord will still restore my marriage. The distance doesn't matter." (Washington) "I had pretty much given up all hope that the Lord wanted my marriage saved. Yesterday I was with my in-laws and my children and we passed a Covenant Transport truck. I started to giggle and soon all the anger and bitterness was lifted. I praise the Lord that He is in total control and He is my strength during my time of trouble." (Maryland) "Yesterday I saw a Covenant Transport truck that was painted all white. I could barely see the lettering. God let me know that even if I don't see the work He is still working behind the scenes." (California) "I was driving to work, praying and asking God to strengthen me in my stand and to open the heart of my prodigal. As I ended my prayer, I looked to the left and there was a Covenant Transport truck. I blinked twice because I thought I would never see one in this area. I praised God because I know now that He is, thinking and loving me, in even in an area like this. I know that He is can and will make the impossible happen. With God all things are possible." (New Jersey) "On this dreary morning, on my way to work, I was praying. I turned the corner and had to wait for a truck to back into a dock. As I ended the words to this part of my prayer, I looked up to find the truck was none other then a Covenant Transport truck. My God has not forgotten little me and the promise He made to show His Glory. (He will not forget little you either.)" (Illinois) "In Saturday’s Charlyne Cares I read a testimony about a Covenant Transport truck. I had never seen such a truck until I saw the picture on the testimony page. I had been feeling really low this morning because my wife backed out on going to a family event. On our way home, I cried out to God asking if this was going to end anytime soon. Then I saw a white rig in my rear view mirror which followed me for miles. About a mile before my exit, I heard, 'Here is your truck.' I laughed to myself. As I pulled onto my exit the truck went by and I saw the words 'Covenant Transport.' I cried and praised the Lord the rest of the way home." (Pennsylvania) "This weekend I had taken my teenaged daughters to a church teen event out of town. Returning home, I looked up at the truck next to me and it was a Covenant Transport Truck. I definitely knew it was God saying once again, 'Be still and wait on the Lord.' I believe God for the miracle of my restored marriage, in His way and in His time." (Ohio) (Learn the history of standers and Covenant Transport trucks from - http://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php ) "My husband left and I have been standing. Today God created a divine moment. I left my house and God drew my eyes to the right and there was a Covenant Transport Truck. This was God's confirmation for me to stand, hold my position, and not give up. God is going to move mightily and restore." (California) "Moving back to Florida, I was unable to purchase a house because I am still legally married. I asked a lawyer about my options. I could not accept his costly ideas. I also needed a new car. Upon leaving the lawyer’s office, I saw a single Covenant Transport truck on the overpass, appearing like a billboard. The nights before I had cried out to the Lord, asking if I am to continue standing for my marriage." (Florida) I kept wondering why others are receiving signs. I asked God to forgive my selfishness, but would love some sign that I'm following Him by standing. My prodigal called today, wanting to borrow money/ Remembering unconditional love, I agreed. On the way to meet him, I passed a Covenant Transport truck. I was praying all the way there. I know God is changing me, and now I know He's working on my prodigal. I am called by God to stand. I got to tell my prodigal how much he's loved and he's welcome home at any time. In God's perfect timing, I know my prodigal will come home. God is so good. He truly is always there for us.

(Indiana) You can read about what these trucks mean to some standers by visiting - https://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php I enjoy reading Saturday Testimonies and am impressed by people telling of seeing Covenant Transport Trucks and how they felt that God was encouraging them that marriage was a Covenant. I thought that would never happen to me as I live on the other side of the world. A few months later, I was watching a television documentary about car drivers in America. They had cameras fitted inside a car. As the car was driving along the road, what should be coming towards it? A large truck with the words Covenant Transport on its side. I am sure you can imagine my surprise and delight. God is a good God, and if he can do little things like that then just think of the bigger things He can do for us. (New Zealand) You can read about what these trucks mean to some standers by visiting -https://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php I had been asked by God to wait for my marriage, but walked away because I was watching the outward circumstances instead of God. I recently committed to standing again but this time for the Lord, not for me or my prodigal. I told the Lord that I would stand for Him no matter what and he assured me that I was where He wanted me to be. Saturday my sister and I went the wrong way and when I turned around, there in front of me was a Covenant Transport truck. God provided that truck along with four other wonderful signs the day before. My husband will be coming home. When is up to God. (Illinois) "I have been standing for a few months and have learned much about God's guidance. I had gone out of town one day and noticed a Covenant Transport truck. That was the first sign to me of God and His reminder of my marriage. I wondered if God really cared and a car passed me with a license plate that said 'God loves you.' I know God is still in control. I am thankful for the reminders that God puts in my path." (South Carolina) "I just took a new job that I had been praying about. It is in the transportation industry. When I sat down at my boss's desk on my first day, I saw a Covenant Transport truck siting on his desk. I smiled and thanked God for bringing me here and reminding that I am doing the right thing as I stand for my marriage to be restored." (Texas) "My wife unexpectedly invited me to visit her. I went a couple of days before Christmas. Before I get to her place, I saw a Covenant Transport Truck. We had a nice visit and it was great to see her again. After I left her place I saw another Covenant Transport Truck. Praise to our Lord Jesus Christ. I'm continuing to walk in faith for the healing of my marriage." (California) "I traveled a few hours to my daughter's home for New Year’s Eve. I often see Covenant Transport Trucks. A privately owned truck passed me and really caught me attention. On the drivers side in big letters was written 'Stand' and on the back of the truck were the words 'Jesus Saves.' I knew that was for me." (Ohio) (You can read about what Covenant Transport trucks mean to some standers by visiting - http://rejoiceministries.org/covenant_transport.php ) "I have had a lot of trying moments, but the Lord has been very faithful to me. I have continued to pray and stand for my marriage and the daily messages from Charlyne have been encouraging. Earlier this week my husband asked me what I was doing for Christmas and he said he will be joining me. Thank You Lord. Yesterday I saw the UK version of two Covenant Transport trucks making their way back to the depot in time for Christmas. God brought to mind all the prodigals He is bringing back home in time for Christmas. I thank God for this." (England) My husband has been home for two months. I remember reading that Charlyne didn't trust Bob when he returned for a while, but she trusted the Lord. I think of that a lot. I really started struggling again yesterday and today, and cried to the Lord for forgiveness, for peace, to show me what He's saying to me and how He wants me to respond, to help me be so sensitive to the leading of the Spirit, and to keep me in His will. Right in the middle of telling God once again that I just don't know if I can go on, a Covenant Transport truck passed me by. I knew the Lord was telling me, once again, that He will never break His Covenant with me to restore my marriage completely." (Texas) "On my summer vacation, I asked God for a Covenant Transport Truck. He gave me one as I was leaving New York City to come home. The irony is that my husband lives in New York City." (Texas) "I have prayed many times to see a Covenant Transport truck, but have never seen one. The other day a television news story about gasoline and the trucking industry caught my attention. The truck they used to tell the story was a Covenant Transport truck! Seeing the truck was a wonderful hug from the Lord, but the bigger point that hit my heart was the reminder that a prayer prayed a year or so ago did not go unanswered. God always does things in His perfect timing." (Texas) "I've been asking God to answer prayers so that I can give Him glory. I was feeling discouraged due to circumstances. I asked God to clearly show me that my marriage would be restored. The next day as I was driving home from work I was passed by a Covenant Transport truck. I have never seen one in this area. It was like God writing on the wall. To God be the Glory. I look forward to what He will do next." (North Carolina) "Throughout my stand, much of 40 minute drive to and from work has been filled with my talking and praying to God. On the way home today, I apologized to the Lord for always looking for some sign from Him. I know I need to walk by faith and know He is working even if I can't see it, but it can be frustrating when others experience different signs. I asked God if I was missing something or doing something wrong? Then a Covenant Transport truck goes by. I have never seen one of these in my life. As if to almost say, 'Yes, I am serious, that was for you,' a second Covenant Transport truck went by. Wow. Praise the Lord. (Indiana) "I recently went on vacation with a single woman. The Holy Spirit reminds me daily that I still have a covenant with my husband. On the way home, I used the Florida Turnpike and I saw one of your "God Heals Hurting Marriages" billboards. It was such a blessing. We were less than an hour from home and the Holy Spirit moved me to give my complete testimony about my stand. Just at that moment, in a small town square were no semi-truck should have been, I saw a Covenant Transport truck." (Georgia) "Last weekend I went with family to San Antonio. I asked for God to talk to me, just a small word. Then I saw a Covenant Transport truck passing by--twice. Just this week my husband called. I am believing God this will not be a false start." (Texas) "The past two weeks have been very stressful here in central Florida with the dry weather and many fires popping up all over, affecting the health and work of many. I was short on staff at work, the rest of us overworked and tired, praying for rain. Interstate traffic was being re-routed on the street where I work. A Covenant Transport truck drove by. I was thanking and praising God. I knew it would be a great day and that God was at work in our prodigals, where we could not see, and rain arrived later that same day." (Florida) “I saw a lot on a trip to Tennessee with my absent husband, but this takes the cake. While riding on the bike, my husband wasn't sure which way to go, so I prayed silently, 'Let the Lord lead you,' and the ride led us toward an intersection. As we approached the intersection, there were Covenant Transport trucks pulling up at all four corners at the light at the same time we did. I was in tears by this time with joy in my heart. Come to find out, we had gone in the wrong direction to see these trucks. The Lord was faithful to lead us there.” (North Carolina). “My husband and I have lived apart for a few years, but our Lord, is working things out. We celebrated our anniversary last week. My husband asked me to take off work so we could spend the day together. He planned a week full of events. What a blessing. I live in Texas and we see Covenant Transport trucks a lot, so I asked the Lord for another sign. I drove up to the Greyhound bus station to drop off my mother, and the Covenant Transport company van was in the parking lot picking up their truck drivers. I have never seen their van before. God is so Great.” (Texas) “I live in Maryland and I am a stander. I always hear about Covenant Transport trucks. Last week I was on my way home from work and looked up and right on the back of the truck was 'Covenant Transport.' I screamed and burst into laughter when I saw that. If I had any doubt that God will restore my marriage I surely don't now. Praise be to God our Father.” (Maryland) “My husband and I have been standing for my prodigal daughter for six months. We recently encountered some setbacks and I grew discouraged. Friday evening after running errands, we were on the way home, and out of the corner of my eye I noticed a Covenant Transport truck. Then I noticed a for sale sign from Covenant Investment Realty. Both reminded me of God's promises and that His will is being revealed even when things seem hopeless. I just have to remain focused on strengthening my relationship with the Lord each and every day.” (Missouri) “My church had a 21 day fast. Our Pastor asked us to write down what we would be fasting for and to keep a journal. The fast was the most meaningful thing I had ever experienced since salvation and receiving the baptism of the Holy Spirit. My request was for my prodigal's salvation and his coming home. We had prayer services three times a day and I was able to go at lunch hour and then in the evening. Each day we grew closer to the Lord. At the end we had a special Sunday night service, with healings and breakthroughs. We brought pictures of our loved ones, and anything else we were believing God for. One of the ministers in my church anointed with oil and prayed over my family pictures. He prayed for restoration. On the way to work the next morning I began to weep and asked the Lord where my passion for my prodigal had gone. I asked Him to give it back and asked for a sign. But then I told Him He didn't have to give me a sign, that I was trusting Him with the unseen. I work at a retail store, and as I was leaving that day, a truck was pulling into the front parking lot. It was a Covenant Transport truck. It parked directly behind my car. These trucks do not deliver here. The driver was coming to shop. I cannot deny that God is at work on my prodigal.” (Texas) “I walked in and out of court with peace and confidence in God as my divorce went through one year after I had to leave my home and husband. God had postponed this divorce for a year and I was crushed that it went through after I have been standing the whole time. I surrendered it all to God's best for me and my spouse, and to do whatever He must do, to turn my spouse back to Him. As I flew home to another state, I prayed, God, where do I go from here? Can I really continue to do this, stand for my marriage that the world says is over? and if so, to show me every day, every step how. The next morning as I read Charlene Cares for the days I was gone, and other verses and meditations, every one of them gave me the exact affirmation and encouragement I needed from God to continue to stand even when the world and my spouse will not understand, until God opens eyes. The next day as I went back to work, the first sign I saw was a Covenant Transport truck. God made sure I saw one every day that week, just to make sure I knew I'd heard him right. Last night, two weeks after our divorce, I went to see a gospel choir in concert. The two seats in front of me had my spouse's first name (not a common name) on the donation plates, as God reminded me again that our prodigals are thinking of us too, even when it seems they are not. Thank You God for all the ways you speak to us and encourage us as we live for you.” (Florida) “I pass a busy truck stop on my commute to and from work. At times I see Covenant Transport trucks and I am usually looking for them. I was feeling low and looking for one as I passed by and was praying, but instead I saw an Omega truck. I felt this sign was a reminder that our Lord is the end as well as the beginning.” (Tennessee) “I received notice that the divorce was final. This threw me into a whirlwind of emotions. I've been struggling to pull out, and always kept my faith in God's ability to pull me through! Yesterday, I passed a car with a front license plate that read 'Expect a Miracle.' I shrugged this off because of my feelings. However, this morning, I passed a Covenant Transport truck in front of me at a stop light. I don't think they ever come through West Virginia. God is faithful. He knew I needed another sign since the first didn't seem to do the trick. It renewed in me the strength that I have been missing. Thank You Lord.” (West Virginia)
