DO YOU SEE IT AS LITTLE?

John 6:1-13. The multitudes had gathered and considering the fact that they were going to embark on a long journey, Jesus thought to himself, “it wouldn’t be good to dismiss them without giving them anything edible”.

He went to seek Philip’s opinion to test Him, even though He knew what He would do. Philip’s response? He magnified the impossibility of feeding the people because they were many.

Andrew on the other hand said, “Master there’s a little boy with just 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes”. Andrew also must have felt that what was available might not do anything but decided to tell Jesus about it to fulfill all righteousness.

“What a perfect meal!” Jesus thought. He went ahead to give thanks and ask that the meal be shared among the 5,000 people. The people ate to satisfaction and there were still 12 baskets left.

See what five loaves of bread and two fishes did!

Dear friends, I’ve come to realize that God only needs us to surrender whatever we have so that He may multiply it for the blessing of the nations. This is what Jesus did: He offered Himself as a seed for the rise (multiplication) of saviours (John 12:24).

Do not ever feel like what God has placed in your hands is insignificant and little, and cannot bless lives.

What you have has been strategically given to you by God to bless nations that He has sent you to.

Who would have thought that five loaves of bread and two fishes would feed multitudes talk less of having leftovers?

God is the God of abundance and He is willing to trade what He has placed in our hands for more if we allow Him.

You are blessed!

Lessons from the Yeast.

Yeast in comparison to flour that is to be used for a snack is small but is instrumental in making sure the dough rises. This is the kind of influence that alot of us wield when we stay in intercession, when we stay doing what God wants us to do even though unnoticed. (Matthew 13:33)
Your influence is seen by the Father who sees in secret, the one who sees the intent of every man’s heart. (Matthew 6:6)

Mama Anna lost her husband 7 years after she got married, it was such pain losing him but it drove her into intercession. She was in the temple day and night, praying and fasting for eighty-four years. (Luke 2:36-38)

Whenever I think of this woman, I’m always amazed, she was there through the pain doing just one thing interceding for God’s promise of salvation to come to the nations, I imagine her saying to God ‘Lord speed up that which you have promised, we want to see the salvation that you have promised Israel, Come Lord we want You’.
There was nothing ‘dramatic’ about her life, she wasn’t in the face of people but always before the face of the Father. I mean this is so powerful because her prayers were shaking stuffs, realigning things and speeding up that which God had promised.
To the natural mind, she was wasting time but to God she was redeeming time, she was influencing alot in the realm of the Spirit.
This woman was like the yeast, she was rising in the wait for God’s promise of salvation, her life was loud before God.

Whenever you feel like the work that the Lord has called you to do carries no weight in the eyes of men or it’s even being said to your face, continue doing it in love to the glory of God.
Don’t stop pleasing Him because Your life is loud before Him
.

We pray this encourages you!
God bless you!💕

Man in the Cave

I once read of the story of a man who was running from his supposed opposition, he ran to the extent that he lived in a cave. While in the cave, people who were in trouble, in debt, discontented and lots came to meet him and he became their leader. They were not just few persons but 400 in number yet they could trust a man who was running for his own life.

Do people go to seek help from people who obviously have their own issues, I mean glaring issues?… Why do you think these 400 men all went to meet him with their own issues? Was it because they did not know that he didn’t have a place to stay? That he was running from a supposed opposition? Shouldn’t they have been more afraid to be with a man who could be killed at anytime? Was it that those who were in the debt didn’t know that He himself was blessed? 1 Samuel 22:1-2

This man was David and sometimes I wonder how someone with such “huge” issues will go all out for people, will love recklessly, will wait to listen to what God will have him do per time and will have much compassion on people.

The 400 men who he was leading knew all of his life history but they took note of something greater which was SUBSTANCE. Men are not attracted to you because of your material possessions but because of what you carry on the inside, if they are attracted to your material possessions, it’s only a matter of time you won’t see them because such doesn’t last. What is eternal is all that makes sense.

We have been called to bring order to situations and lives that are in disarray, we must carry this mindset wherever we find ourselves. Let it be that whenever we get to a place, or we walk into people’s life, let it be that our relationship with them births an encounter with Jesus, turns their lives around 360 degrees. If it wasn’t working before let it begin working well and right. I believe that David’s mighty men came from this 400, just imagine the exploits they made just by walking into his life. 2 Samuel 23:8-39

That’s why scripture says of God’s children, whatsoever we lay our hands on prospers that’s whatever our touches our hands or our hands touch thrives in the courts of our God. Psalms 1:1-3, Psalms 92:10

Child of God you carry substance, men do not just meet you and remain the same, there must just be a shift in their lives. You are a blessing unto the nations of the earth, walk in this reality. Wherever you find yourself, you bloom and bless lives, it doesn’t matter if its an obscure place.

Walk in this reality! Live this reality!

You are blessed!

You can not enjoy fellowship with Jesus if you don’t know Him and you can’t fulfill your destiny if you do not know HIM. We welcome you to turn unto Jesus because He alone saves, He died for your sins to make you whole and complete Him. Accept Him today.
