Hey New Life Family,
The One Year Bible is a great way to do devotions. Here is a nugget I got from today's reading.PAL
Matthew
14:13-36
Jesus Feeds Five Thousand
13
As soon as Jesus heard the news, he left in a boat to a remote area to be
alone. But the crowds heard where he was headed and followed on foot from many
towns. 14
Jesus saw the huge crowd as he stepped from the boat, and he had compassion on
them and healed their sick.
15 That evening the disciples came to h
im and
said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds
away so they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves.”
16 But Jesus said, “That isn’t necessary—you
feed them.”
17 “But we have only five loaves of bread and
two fish!” they answered.
18 “Bring them here,” he said. 19
Then he told the people to sit down on the grass. Jesus took the five loaves
and two fish, looked up toward heaven, and blessed them. Then, breaking the
loaves into pieces, he gave the bread to the disciples, who distributed it to
the people. 20 They all ate as much as they wanted, and
afterward, the disciples picked up twelve baskets of leftovers. 21 About 5,000 men were fed that day, in addition to all the
women and children!
“------you feed them”
Wow, what compelling words! “You feed them”. The disciples were wanting Jesus to do a
miracle. Jesus wanted the disciples to be part of the miracle.
17 “But we have only five loaves of bread and
two fish!” they answered.
18 “Bring them here,” he said.
Jesus takes what they had and supernaturally multiplies it.
Give Jesus what you have today and let him give you His supernatural
response.
