The God Who Provides

Contributed by Roy Sommerville on Aug 3, 2011

The story of the feeding of the 5000 contains some wonderful principles that teach us much about how, when and why God provides

In mark 6:33-44, we’re going to see that God is a God who provides. We find a marvellous example of God providing food for 5000 men plus women plus children, maybe up to 20,000 people, and he provides enough for everybody to eat with just a boy’s lunch of bread and fish. This story is ...read more

Sharing

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Sep 13, 2022

The feeding of the 5000 in John 6 has many layers of meaning. One view is that the miracle is that Jesus got everyone to share their food.

Koplitz John 6:1 After these things Jesus went away to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (or Tiberias). 2 A large crowd followed Him, because they saw the signs which He was performing on those who were sick. 3 Then Jesus went up on the mountain, and ...read more

When Challenges Come Our Way, Jesus Already Has A Plan

Contributed by Neal Nybo on Apr 23, 2018

By looking at Jesus feeding the 5000, we realize Jesus already knows what he wants to do in your situation. Don’t limit the possibilities to only what you can imagine. And, remember what Jesus has done in the past and trust him for something big.

For those of us who want Jesus to be predictable, I have bad news and good news. The bad news is. Jesus is not predictable. Never has been, never will be. The good news is, he knows what he is doing and its all for the best. The disciples experienced the same kind of hopes and expectations. It ...read more

Contributed by David Smith on Dec 14, 2006

Father Dave’s sermon on the miracle of the feeding of the 5000, and what Jesus means when he says he is ’the bread of life.’

I don’t know what your week has been like, but I’ve had a week that has been full of typical priest-type things: visiting the sick and organising weddings, baptisms and funerals. Indeed, in the next few weeks we’ve got two baptism scheduled, there’s one wedding next Saturday, and tomorrow I have ...read more

The Heart Of God

Contributed by Jon Mackinney on Aug 3, 2010

Here is a huge miracle, the feeding of the 4000. But what makes it different than the feeding of the 5000 earlier in the same chapter? For those of us who are Gentiles, it should be very comforting.

Passage: Matthew 15:29-6:4 Intro: There are so many wonderful things about the Word of God. 1. but essentially, it reveals the heart of God, who God is. 2. and the greatest revelation of His heart is seen in the actions and attitudes of His Son Jesus PP Hebrews 1:3 3. in this ...read more

Unnamed Hero Series

Contributed by Tim Smith on Feb 7, 2016

Our Scripture today is the only miracle of Jesus that appears in all four Gospels. It was thus the most significant miracle in the early church: you’re never too young to be a hero

The Anonymous Hero John 6: 1-14 Who doesn’t love superheroes? Every child grows up watching shows about superheroes, people who were able to do more and be more than the rest of us. In ancient times, you had the heroes of Greek mythology. Then it was King Arthur and the Knights of the Round ...read more

Five Plus Two Does Not Equal Seven

Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 10, 2015

Following Jesus is a radical lifestyle, and Jesus asks us if we are willing to do the same. Are we willing to give up some of what we have, that others might not go hungry? Are we willing to give out of what God has given to us

Have you ever heard of the saying, “Every dark cloud has a silver lining”? If so, then the story of the loaves and fishes is a good example. Let me explain. This story happens just after the death of John the Baptist. When Jesus heard that his cousin was beheaded, he did what some of ...read more

Food And Water Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015

One of the challenges this passage lays upon us is to trust in God to provide for the little things. To pray just as earnestly that God would ‘Give us this day our daily bread.’ And we’re to look out for God working in little ways in our lives.

Sermon by Rev George Hemmings It’s good to be back, after our little trip to Queensland. We had a great time away, visiting family and enjoying lots of fantastic weather. I can’t say we’ve returned well rested, as Micah & Joshua decided that since the sun rises sometime around ...read more

Our Daily Bread Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 30, 2024
