    Our Daily Bread

     | 10,606 views

    Jesus is the Bread of Life and is always enough for our daily needs. Not only that but He leaves enough overflowing fragments for us to bless others.

    OUR DAILY BREAD The first part of the 8th chapter of Mark tells us of the great miracle that Jesus performed when he fed 4000 men with only 7 loaves of bread and few small fish. (In one other instance in Matthew chapter 14, Jesus had fed 5000 with only 5 loaves and two fish.) Right on the heels ...read more

    We’re sometimes slow to trust God even though He has always come through in the past.

    A LESSON IN TRUSTING “Be careful”, Jesus warned them. “Watch out for the yeast of the Pharisees and that of Herod”, (Mark 8: 15). Here we have one of those recurring occasions that take place in the ministry of Jesus - the feeding of a large crowd of people. The people came from near and ...read more

    Are your eyes open? Nothing opens eyes like a good question. Jesus questions have a way of both exposing and healing blindness. Watch what he does in this passage...

    Mark 8:11-26 Do You See Anything? This year you are studying: Questions Jesus Asked from Mark’s gospel. Did you know that in Mark 8 in the NKJV, there are at least 16 questions asked by Jesus.

    This Sermon will inspire Christian to put feet on the faith and be doers and not just hearers of the Word.

    Can You See Clearly Now? 8/5/04 Mark 8:22-25 The Gospel of Mark is unique. It is not a biography of Jesus, like Matthew or Luke. It does not dwell on the family history with all the begets and genealogy. It is a record of Jesus’ actions. It shows Jesus as Savior-King, who ...read more

    How sin limits the power of God in our lives

    To Handcuff the Power of God Mark 8:14-21 (Prayer) A recurring theme of the bible is that only those who would dare to trust God with their whole hearts will see the power of God manifested in their circumstances.

    Our faith in Jesus Christ progressively heals us of our spiritual blindness.

    (Note: This sermon was introduced with scene # 32 from "Traveling Light") I’ve always had a secret fear about going blind. Out of all my senses, sight would be the most difficult for me to live without. Maybe it’s because I love to read so much. I always hated those assignments in high school that ...read more

    The willful unbelief of the Pharisees disturbed the Lord to the depths of His spirit.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: People refuse to believe that which they don’t want to believe, in spite of evidence.

    How Jesus’ healing of the blind man is a picture of overcoming spiritual blindness.

    On November 30, 1991, fierce winds from a freakish dust storm triggered a massive freeway pileup along Interstate 5 near Coalinga, California.

    The God of the Second Touch! A. Good Morning! I am reading from Mark 8:22-26… Of all the stories of Jesus we might read and study, from the perspective of a believer, this story might just be the strangest of all. 1.

    It talks about three reasons why asking God for a sign is not pleasing to Him.

    Whenever I am driving to a place that I’m not familiar with I am a person who needs signs. I can follow good directions with anyone. But even with directions in hand I get uncomfortable if I don’t see a sign for where I’m going. My wife can always tell when I’m a little concerned or nervous ...read more
