| | Studying God's Word is very exciting. I want to share them with you.
John 6:6
God will test our faith.
John 6:7
Right away, Phillip looked into his mathematical ability and figured what was needed to solve the problem. Honestly that was good because he saw his limitation. His problem was, he stopped there. He had been with Jesus, saw Him perform miracle after miracle, but He did not even think about looking to Him to supply this need. All he saw was the impossible.
John 6:9
Andrew right away looked to find what they had and found it very much lacking.
John 6:10
Phillip and Andrew should have outrightly realized that “Feeding the Five Thousand” was not a problem for Jesus.
Jesus was very patient with them. He allowed them to assessed the problem. They discussed the problem with Jesus. That was great. What was lacking was they did not see that the problem was not really a problem because the problem solver was right there with them.
But the great thing about this scene was, the disciples obeyed Jesus inspite of the lack of sight of the blessing of provision.
John 6:11
This is exciting! Jesus started to bless with the provision after the disciples obeyed.
We do not wait for provision to start on our obedience. Because provision does not come before obedience.
If we want to see great things happen in our ministries and in our lives, let God worry about the provision. He will never run out of tracks where He wants to send you. And as you go, you will see that He keeps adding a cabboose of tools and provision to complete the task He has for you. It is His work let Him worry about it. All you do is obey and follow His instructions. Follow the Traffic Lights of Service.
Red - Stop - Fuel up with His Holy Spirit for energy and strength. Let the oil of His word permeates every part of you. Let the water of the scriptures wash your heart and mind, clear the cobwebs of little hidden sins.
Yellow - Caution - Examine your relationship with Him to be able to stand the wear and tear of the journey. Make sure that you have the the Whole Armor of Faith to withstand the wiles of the devil. Ephesians 6:11
Green - G0 - You are ready. You have God’s peace in your heart to start your engine, GO.
God bless you all today.
