Song: Break Thou The Bread Of Life
Scriptures: John 6:5-14
The miracles of Jesus were always practical in their aim. They were intended to lay the foundation for His teaching. The point to be gleaned from Jesus’ feeding of the 5000 is found the next day when He said to the multitudes, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger.”
Work not for the bread which perishes, but for the bread that endures. Don’t think that you’ve completed your work today when you’ve earned a living. If you did nothing to feed your soul today, you’re behaving just like the crowds who sought Jesus only when they were filled with loaves.
Look to Jesus for all that you require. Do you need wisdom to decide? Do you need strength to overcome? Do you need hope to endure? Look to Jesus. He is the bread of life. He worked this miracle so that we would trust in His ability to provide for all that we need each day.
The resources of Jesus are never exhausted. Things are not as they appear. Jesus took five loaves and two fishes, gave the five thousand all they wanted, and ended up with twelve baskets of fragments. He can supply more than you need. No problem is too complex. No need is too severe. No obstacle is too great. Jesus is able to deliver you.
Well, go earn your bread today, but not wheat, or white, or the green stuff. Secure for yourself the bread that really matters, the kind that endures.
