Jehovah-Jireh is a name by which we identify one attribute of God. It means that He is God the Provider. He sees ahead of time, ahead of our need, ahead of the situation and makes a provision for it. He makes provision before we ever get to the need. Then He manifest the provision when we need it. A rough example of this is when we put monies aside for a rainy day. We are making provision for something before it happens so that when it comes we will have what we need. The difference in the Lord's case is that He knows exactly what the need will be and when it will occur.
He saw Adam sin, He saw judgment come upon mankind and saw our need for a Savior before the world was ever created. He made a provision to save and redeem us from sin and eternal punishment before the foundation of the world was laid, before He ever said, "Let there be light", before darkness was upon the face of the deep, when there was nothing not even space. Jesus was already the "Lamb that was slain" before mankind even existed.
If this amazing God who saw the need of mankind and provided salvation for mankind before He ever even created mankind, would do that for us, then know this-- He saw ahead, even before you were born, what needs you would have throughout your lifetime. And not only did He see them, He has already made provision for them. He has already got a plan in mind. He already has everything orchestrated to supply what you need. He already has it all under control. He did it long before you were born, and when it is needed He will bring it into being.
Have a great day. God saw your need before the need occurred and He has already provided for it. When you need it, it will be there.
