THE SUPERNATURAL LIFE OF CHRIST AND THE MIRACLE OF THE LOAVES AND FISHES !!!

THE MIRACLE OF LOAVES AND FISHES!
WHICH OUR LORD DID!
IS TO REMIND US!
ABOUT HIS GOODNESS AND GRACE!
EVEN WHEN WE FAIL TO FATHOM!
UNDERSTAND AND REMEMBER!
THE SOVEREIGNTY OF HIS STRENGTH!
POWER AND COMPASSION!
LIKE THE OLD ISRAEL!
WHO WERE FED BY THE LAMB!
WITH FISHES AND!
LOAVES!
WE DO OFTEN FAIL TO REMEMBER!
THE RISEN CHRIST!
WHO HAS PROMISED HIS PRESENCE!
TO BE WITH HIS DISCIPLES!
BENT ON THE CROSS!
UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD!
THE ISRAEL OF THE TIME!
FAILED TO HAVE FAITH!
EVEN AFTER THE COUNTLESS MIRACLES!
THEY HAD SEEN AND HEARD!
THE FACT TO KNOW!
MOST IMPORTANTLY!
IN THE MIRACLE OF FISHES AND LOAVES!
WHICH CHRIST PERFORMED!
TO REMIND THEM ABOUT THE MANNA!
AND THE PAST OF ISRAEL!
WHICH THEY NEVER UNDERSTOOD!
DUE TO THEIR LACK OF SIGHT!
Shalom,
Samuel Machado
JESUS LOVES YOU THE WAY YOU ARE!
Judges 6:24
Matthew 14:13-21 New International Version (NIV)
Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand
13 When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. 14 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.
15 As evening approached, the disciples came to him 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 themselves some food.”
16 Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.”
17 “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.
18 “Bring them here to me,” he said. 19 And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. 20 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 21 The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.
