A Math Formula Which Does Not Make Sense

Show Indonesian Version

John 6:10-11

Then Jesus said, "Make the people sit down." Now there was much grass in the place. So the men sat down, in number about five thousand. And Jesus took the loaves, and when He had given thanks He distributed them to the disciples, and the disciples to those sitting down; and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted.

When you study in elementary school, the teacher must have taught you that one plus one equals to two. This basically makes sense. But how about God’s Math formula that definitely does not make sense? Would you believe without seeing?

Do you still remember the miracle He performed, when He fed people with 5 loaves of bread and two fish?

One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to Him, "There is a lad here who has five barley loaves and two small fish, but what are they among so many?" (John 6:8-9)

At that time Jesus wanted to feed five thousand people. But they only had 5 loaves of bread and two fish. Of course you can imagine how to feed five thousand people with only five loaves of bread and two fish. It did not make sense. However, in that moment Jesus performed miracle. In the most impossible situation, God can make great thing because He is great God.

First off, have you been in the edge of a cliff? You are so confused because the only choice is between life and death. In that circumstance, God is able to deliver you. When people say “It’s impossible!” would your faith decrease? Or, would you believe in Jesus?

But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him." (1 Corinthians 2:9)

Keep believing that He is great and able to do great things. Second, why did the child was willing to give his own? God’s people should learn from this little kid, how he gives what he has. It’s not how much do you have but how you give what you have to God. Even though you have only one talent, God can change it into great thing, if you give it to Him.

 

Only those who believe without seeing that can experience miracles in their life.
