    Divine provision

    Explanation:

    In this excerpt, the idea of "Providence" is being used as a synonym of the idea of divine provision. In other words, the speaker is talking to a Mr. Wilson, and she is trying to get him to think of what his reaction would be if he was enslaved. She tells Mr. Wilson that he would most likely be desperate to escape and be reunited with his family. Because of this, he would most likely think of an escaped horse as a sign of divine provision, and take the chance to escape his bondage.
