Topic :See Beyond The Miracles.
Memory Verse :John 6:26. Jesus answered, “I am telling you the truth: you are looking for me because you ate the bread and had all you wanted, not because you understood my miracles.
Bible Reading :John 6:23-25 GNB. Key Verse : v23.
Other boats, which were from Tiberias, came to shore near the place where the crowd had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks. When the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they got into those boats and went to Capernaum, looking for him. When the people found Jesus on the other side of the lake, they said to him, “Teacher, when did you get here?”
Jesus Christ is God that came to the earth in the flesh, so that he could redeem us from our sins. His earthly life and ministry was unique and filled with proofs of his divine personality. This time he had a great meeting in the mountainous region of Capernaun where he took care of their spiritual and physical needs. There he taught them the word of God, healed their deceases, delivered them from all forms of afflictions. When it was evening, the people was hungry and exhausted, out of compassion he fed them by using 5 loaves of barley bread and 2 fishes, before sending them home. It is on record that the crowd was massive, 5,000 men excluding women and children. Yet, they picked 12 up baskets of left over bread.
The next day, the people didn’t waste time to gather more of their friends and loved ones to meet him in same venue. When they couldn’t see him there, they boarded ship to cross over to the side of Tiberias to look for him, till they were able to locate him. They were still basking in the excitement of the food they ate the previous day, hoping to get more of such treat. They were not following Jesus to learn from his teachings the wisdom of God, neither were they attracted to know more of God because of the miracles that was there as a seal of God’s approval over the life earthly ministry and assignment of Jesus Christ our saviour. Jesus being God knew their mind, therefore he began to rebuke them for misplaced priorities.
Today, we have to learn that the miracles of God are not for fun. They are not meant to entertain and make us feel good. Rather, one of the reasons God does them is because they are designed by him as divine instruments to draw us closer to the master for deeper relationship, so that we can be taught his ways. Miracles are there to help us build our trust in him as our king. In the life of a man like Moses, the miracle of the burning bush is one that God used to get his undivided attention, so that he could reveal his assignment to him. “There the angel of the Lord appeared to him as a flame coming from the middle of a bush. Moses saw that the bush was on fire but that it was not burning up. “This is strange,” he thought. “Why isn’t the bush burning up? I will go closer and see.” When the Lord saw that Moses was coming closer, he called to him from the middle of the bush and said, “Moses! Moses!”He answered, “Yes, here I am.”” Exodus 3:2-4. Today, we have to look beyond the miracles to understand the plan and purpose of God, as to align with him in all we do.
Prayer :Thank you Lord Jesus for every miracle of salvation protection, provisions, healing, etc I received from you. Help me to understand your plan to use such to draw me closer to yourself, build trust and a deeper relationship with you. Help me to always understand and align with your purpose all my days in Jesus wonderful name….. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Ephesians 4:1-16.
