The Miracle With A Purpose

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 30, 2023

Jesus challenged the disciples to solve an impossible situation because He wanted to test them, to see if they would turn to Him and to God for help. We can trust God to do immeasurably beyond what we ask or imagine.

Matt 14:13-21 - The Miracle With A Purpose Jesus did many miracles in the course of His ministry but the feeding of the 5000 is the only one recorded in all the 4 Gospels (Matt 14, Mark 6, Luke 9 and John 6). • All four writers find it significant enough to record it down.

Jesus needed a day off. But when he saw the spiritual needs of the people, his plans went out the window.

Jesus Christ: The Messiah, Not A Meal Ticket Series

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 14, 2021

When Jesus fed the five thousand, as recorded in all four gospels, He demonstrated what He taught about God being the Provider of our needs (Matthew 6:25-34). Most of the crowd, however, wanted food, not faith.

The Lord Jesus never taught anything about the nature and character of God the Father that He Himself did not demonstrate or model before either His disciples or the people who followed and listened to Him. When we first read of this miracle, mentioned in all four gospels, we see the Divine ...read more
