In Mark 6:37-42 it reads, “37 But he answered, “You give them something to eat.” They said to him, “That would take more than half a year’s wages! Are we to go and spend that much on bread and give it to them to eat?” 38 “How many loaves do you have?” he asked. “Go and see.” When they found out, they said, “Five loaves—and two fish.” 39 Then Jesus directed them to have all the people sit down in groups on the green grass. 40 So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties. 41 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 his disciples to distribute to the people. He also divided the two fish among them all. 42 They all ate and were satisfied,
I am so excited to see how Jesus took five loaves and two fish to feed thousands and thousands.
He can bless, multiply and miraculously take whatever you have to bless you and everyone around you. We see this many times in His word that He made the widow’s oil not run dry until all her jars were full. He took another widow’s flour and oil (enough only for one serving) and multiplied it for an extended time until the famine was over. The key is, “What do you have?” This means, God has already given everything you need. You just need to trust Him, bless it, and multiply it. Maybe you are struggling fi-nancially, but what talents has God given you to increase your funding? Can you sew? Can you mow lawns? Can you cook? Can you paint? Maybe you are needing some mentorship and training? Who do you know has what you want? Ask them, can you teach me? He also puts people in your life to help you. In the Bible we see how God puts prophets and people in the lives of His children to help guide them and lead them in paths of righteousness.
Sometimes, we have relied too much on our own strength, might or our own wisdom to change our situation. I can tell you, if you got yourself in the situation, you need help to get yourself out of it. Ask God to give you wisdom, like Solomon. Ask God to give you knowledge as He promises He will in James 1:5. The answer to every issue, need and circumstance is Jesus. He is the Way and the only one who can show you the Way to go. He is the truth and therefore knows what you need before you need it! He is the life and came so YOU can have life abundantly. Let me introduce Him to you. He is the only true friend I have. He is someone who never goes back on His word and gives me everything I ask in His name. If you want to give Him a chance to take your minimal and make a miracle, ask Him.
Lord, I ask You to have Your way in my life. To forgive me of my sins and be my Savior. To help me to seek Your will and plans for my life. I know Your plans are to prosper me and I have made a mess. I need wisdom and knowledge to know what I need to do. I seek You for freedom from strongholds and for restoration from my past. I know you can make me a new creature and wash me clean from sin. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen and Amen.
That’s it. Seek a Bible-believing church and start your new life right now. Let God work miracles in your life and with your minimal. Go and see what is prepared for you and what God has given you. You need to claim it. Conquer it. I can’t wait to hear about it!
