** How do you tap into the unlimited supply of the Kingdom of Heaven? **
John 6:9, ”There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves, and two small fishes: but what are they among so many?”
JOHN 6:1-13
{read to understand}
Notice that Jesus didn’t just turn some of the stones into bread (as Satan had tempted Him to do in Lk. 4:3-4).
We find only one instance in scripture where God created a supply to meet a need
(Num. 11:21-23). Usually, the Lord simply blesses what we set our hand to do.
The resources were totally inadequate to meet the need in this instance, but when the Lord blessed it, there was more than enough.

Positive Ministry Of The Holy Spirit
Most people have been led to believe that self-doubt, self-condemnation, feelings of unworthiness, and conviction for individual sins are the work of the Holy Spirit.

** Exposure to knowledge does not always lead to the Absolute truth! Seek the truth and it will lead you to goals which you can either benefit from or else it becomes a failure!
Knowledge without understanding is a waste of both time and effort.
All parts of the information involved must be a valid (true) or else you risk a destructive conclusion.
In fact knowledge without the ability to see the Truth is misleading or a failure
Much of the world today is chasing information both beneficial and destructive.
It is imperative that the validity and sources of information be verified for the absolute truth of the situation(s)!

Do You Need A Miracle In Your Life Today?
John Hagee
The Jesus that we worship and adore had a ministry based on miracles. Rising from the dead was a miracle. Walking on water was a miracle. Turning water into wine, using a boy’s sack lunch of fish to feed the multitudes, and causing money to appear in the mouth of a fish were all miracles.
There are 34 distinct miracles recorded in the Gospels, and there are countless times from Genesis to Revelation, that you will find miracles in Scripture.

Miracles and Blessings of God!
What defines the difference between Miracles and Blessings!
Miracles come from
emergency response to crisis in life!
Unfortunately many people live in a constant state of crisis.
These ranges from financial, social, political, to very personal.
Some live in almost desperate situations daily.
During these times they generally have to grovel and
beg for help.
It is during these desperate times people must seek a miracle happening!
Yet miracles are only temporary occurrences in this earthly ... read more Life is?? #274 the peace that Jesus purchased 6 y
** the peace that Jesus purchased was peace between God and man. We have peace with God - A person who is thinking that he must perform up to some standard to be accepted by God will have no peace. **
What can we do?
Matthew 10:34,
”Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.”
MATTHEW 10:34-42
This statement seems like a contradiction to some prophecies concerning Jesus and some of Jesus’ own statements concerning peace, as well as what was written of Him in the New Testament Epistles.
However, the peace that Jesus purchased was peace between God and man. We have peace with God
(Rom. 5:1). We are exhorted to take this peace and extend it to all men, but it is also made very clear that not all men will receive it.
Peace ... read more whosoever shall deny me 6 y
** This word "deny" can mean a variety of things from as little as "to assert the contrary of" to "to disavow; disown." **
Matthew 10:33, ”But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven.”
MATTHEW 10:32-33
This word ”deny” can mean a variety of things from as little as ”to assert the contrary of” to ”to disavow; disown.” For example, we can see that it must have been the lesser type of denial which was committed by Peter because God certainly forgave Peter’s sin and continued using him. In Hebrews 6:4-6, the Lord states that there is no repentance from total denial of the Lord (Heb. 10:29).
Therefore, even though Peter denied (asserted he did not know) ... read more Christians Need to Live in Unity - Part 2 6 y
** Why Unity is Important for America (and the Church)
Lead Toward Unity - Unite is Something You Do, While Unity is What You Are!
Unite is a verb. When we unite, we can unite in the name of a cause or whatever our passion is. We see people unite for their cause, and sometimes the cause can become destructive by dividing a family, a church, a nation, and even the world. You can unite for things and you can unite against things.
While unite is a verb and is something you do, unity is a noun. Unity is oneness. Jesus wants us to live in oneness and unity. **
[Part Two]
The words of Ephesians 4:3 are inescapable. It says, “Making every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”
We cannot live out Ephesians 4:3 apart from God’s grace that we have received freely. Nor can we live out Ephesians 4:3 until we cultivate and live out the truth of Ephesians 4:2, which says, “with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love.”
For example, humility leads to gentleness; gentleness leads to patience; patience leads to bearing one another in love, and all four of these together lead us to mak ... read more Christians Need to Live in Unity - Part 1 6 y

People need each other.
Following having a relationship with God through His Son Jesus Christ, our greatest need is each other. God believes this so much that at the moment of salvation, we become part of Jesus’ family, His Church!
This occurs just as stated in 1 Corinthians 12:13,
“For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body.”

Psalm 119 is an amazing Psalm. Not only is it the longest Psalm (176 verses!), but it is also the Psalm that deals the most directly with the topic of Scripture. Virtually every verse, in one way or another, refers to God’s Word.
David (who is most likely the author) uses a variety of terminology to describe God’s Word: commandments, law, statutes, precepts, ordinances, rules, words, testimonies, etc. These all refer to the Scriptures as they existed in David’s day ... read more Life is?? # 273 Good sleep 6 y

** Fear will negate faith. We can have both thoughts of faith and thoughts of unbelief at the same time. **

MATTHEW 9:23-31; MARK 5:35-43; LUKE 8:49-56
Jesus told Jairus to ”believe only,” implying that faith and fear can operate in us at the same time. This is also the reason James tells us not to be double-minded or to waiver (Jas. 1:5-8). Fear will negate faith. We can have both thoughts of faith and thoughts of unbelief at the same time.
Fear and faith are opposing forces.
