Jesus did not create food out of nothing, the miracle of feeding both the four thousand and the five thousand was that He took what existed and multiplied it.
The essence of a mature Son and Daughter of GOD is that their mindset is now seeing situations with the same mindset of Jesus, from Heaven’s perspective. We must consider this Truth with intense focus if we want to fulfill the Great Commission rather than just be observers.
Let’s revisit the teaching in the boat immediately after Jesus fed the four thousand.
Jesus focused on this very point of having the correct mindset as He questioned the disciples in Mark chapter 8:
13 And He left them, and getting into the boat again, departed to the other side.
14 Now the disciples had forgotten to take bread, and they did not have more than one loaf with them in the boat.
15 Then He charged them, saying, “Take heed, beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the leaven of Herod.”
16 And they reasoned among themselves, saying, “It is because we have no bread.”
17 But Jesus, being aware of it, said to them, “Why do you reason because you have no bread? Do you not yet perceive nor understand? Is your heart still hardened?
18 Having eyes, do you not see? And having ears, do you not hear? And do you not remember?
19 When I broke the five loaves for the five thousand, how many baskets full of fragments did you take up?” They said to Him, “Twelve.”
20 “Also, when I broke the seven for the four thousand, how many large baskets full of fragments did you take up?” And they said, “Seven.”
21 So He said to them, “How is it you do not understand?”
That is quite a rebuke! The disciples literally experienced Heaven’s abundance as they passed out the bread and fishes but had no idea the importance and implication of what had just happened.
Possibly the most important question Jesus asked, “Do you remember?” Do you want to activate your hearing? Meditate on not only The Word, but past testimonies, specifically those that applied to your situation. Review the Works of GOD, review the activities of GOD. Let these memories activate our hearing! As we hear better, we see better.
If FATHER healed you once, will HE heal you again or withhold HIS healing power from you? Does HE change? No! If HE healed you once, HE will heal you again. If HE brought forth supernatural provision to you in the past, HE will do it again.
“FATHER, show me the nature of a father who would consistently provide for the needs of his children over and over again. I desire to tap into the heartbeat of a father who Love people like You do!”
FATHER chooses to work in a way where HE receives the most glory.
Paul brought this Truth to light when he wrote by The Holy Spirit in 1st Corinthians chapter 1:
26 Brothers and sisters, consider who you were when God called you to salvation. Not many of you were wise scholars by human standards, nor were many of you in positions of power. Not many of you were considered the elite when you answered God’s call.
27 But God chose those whom the world considers foolish to shame those who think they are wise, and God chose the puny and powerless to shame the high and mighty.
28 He chose the lowly, the laughable in the world’s eyes—nobodies—so that he would shame the somebodies. For he chose what is regarded as insignificant in order to supersede what is regarded as prominent,
29 so that there would be no place for prideful boasting in God’s presence.
30 For it is not from man that we draw our life but from God as we are being joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. And now HE is our God-given Wisdom, our virtue, our Holiness, and our redemption. TPT
31 And this fulfills what is written: If anyone boasts, let him only boast in all that the Lord has done!
We qualify so let us trust in FATHER’S provision!
