“Where are we to buy bread, so that these may eat?” This He was saying to test him, for He Himself knew what He was intending to do.”-{John 6:6}
The first man said, “eight months wages … is not sufficient for them, for everyone to receive a little,” in order to feed the multitudes.{John 6:7}.He looked at the situation and concluded, it can’t be done, because he cant see how, therefore it cant, he wrongly concluded ! The second was a little bit… more “optimistic,” he said there was a lad who had five barley loaves, and two fish, “…but what is that for so many?” He too concluded, it cant be done! Why not? Because he couldn’t see how, therefore he wrongly concluded it cant be done! They both looked at the circumstances, “logically,” and concluded it cant be done! They Excluded Jesus Christ from the circumstance and took the place of the Almighty in their thinking!! They failed to relate it to Him who was present. They believed what they “saw” and not Him who had done so much in their presence previously. They came to the wrong conclusion because they “leaned to their own understanding,” and when they and we do that, we exclude Him from the scenario= and we wrongly conclude- It can’t be done. Why Not? Because I can’t see how, therefore it can’t! It is living as though He is not present, able, caring, sufficient. He tested them as He does us and we must remember…
In your trial,…
I may not know “How,” but I Know WHOM!
In your trial…
HE HIMSELF KNOWS WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO!-
That is good news, and meant to bring comfort to our mind and soul!
HE PRECEDES YOUR EVERY TEST…HE IS PRESENT IN YOUR TEST… HE IS PRE-EMINENT OVER THE TEST….
HE HIMSELF KNOWS WHAT HE IS GOING TO DO!
